HOARD IN A FLOATING LOG

A party OF campers from Seattle
were hauling a gigantic cedar log up
on the beach of Lake Washington to
be converted into firewood when what
appeared to be huge plug attracted
their attention. One ran for the axe
and the log was split into two pieces.
The plug acted as a door of safety
vault where some logger twenty years
ago had hidden his savings. There
were $500 in gold. s6S in silver and
$500 in currency. The name. though,
dim, on the post Office money orders
appears to be Claude Parsons or Par
ker, and they are payable in the post
Office at Eau Claire, Wis. The money
orders are dated April, 1891.
Efforts will be made to find the
rightful owner of the hoard. Many sto-
ries are told of the prodigality with
which loggers handled their money
in the halcyon days of logging. A
favorite bank was to put boom
augur hole in big stump. Into this
hole was put the gold, silver and pa
per and big plug driven into the
hole. The plug was then sawed of
plumb with the bark and the wealth
left until wanted. Many of these i'm
provised banks were swept away by
floods or destroyed in forest fires.

NEW YORK.-The fowl house of
~ the Central park zoo was scandal
lied one day recently when some sharp
eyed tattlers noticed the simultaneous
disappearance of Clara, one of the
young wild gray geese recently given
to the zoo, and Brigham Young. the
little Black Spanish game rooster
whose wild ways have deprived him of
the countenance of the best classes in
the fowl house.
1t came out that Brigham Young and
Clara were out in the park together.
Chief Keeper Snyder, who went on
their trail as soon as he heard about
their disappearance, got wind of them
near the alligator pool. A black wing
feather by the eagle cages also
showed that b. Young had been there.
He had lost the feather trying to con-
verse with a South American condor.
Then he went on up the path, walk
ing in a manner that said that he
thought himself a pretty fine fellow.
The little wild gray goose seemed to
be extremely proud OF him.
1t was about here that the little gray
goose felt such thrill of freedom and
life that she quacked in her coarse, I'M
cultured voice, and abruptly left the
earth for a flight in the air.

LIGHTNING CAME BY PHONE

While the sun was shining the other
day at Clinton, N. j.. and there was no
indication of an electrical storm, a
bolt of lightning struck liberty pole
in front of hotel SCATTERING the shaft
and soaring a team of mules so badly
that they ran two miles. The team
was tied to ring attached to the pole,
which was thirty feet high. After the
animals had been stopped II was found
that the bolt OF lightning which had
shattered the pole had also melted the
iron shoes from each of the mules.
Otherwise they were uninjured. The
source of the lightning bolt puzzled all
the local electrical experts and me-
teorologists, but after investigation II
was found that telephone wire run
ming from Singac passed so close to
the flag pole as to touch It. At the
time the pole was struck fierce thun.
der storm was raging in the vicinity
of Singac, and the theory Is that
lightning striking the telephone wire
in the storm zone. travelled over the
cable until 1t encountered the unin-
sulated liberty pole, where the full
force of the bolt was spent.

Scandal Wrecks Romance of the Zoo

b. Young tried to do that, too, but
he fell back to the ground in a most
undignitied manner. When the gray
goose came back after a circle of the
neighborhood, he expressed to her, no
doubt his grave disapproval of undue
boisterousness in young woman con-
siderably beyond the kindergarten age.
At any rate GOODNESS sprang up
here between the couple. They went
on down the mall until they came to
the pool of water equipped with the
fountain mechanism that spouts up
many minute streams OF water from
the surface of the pool. b. Young
started to walk slowly around the low
curbing of the pool, but Clara, the
poor, simple thing, jumped right in
and, swimming out until she came I'M
derneath the showering streams. began
quacking as loudly as she could. flap
ping her wings in quick, excited
way.
B. Young does not worship the con-
vention. But even he stood stock still
and glared at Clara. She caught his
eye, but did not seem to be in the
least ashamed. Whereupon he turned
away, acting as If he didn't know the
young thing cutting up in the pool.
Chief Keeper Snyder came down the
mall on the trail. On the way back to
the fowl house, Clara and B. Young re-
fused to notice each other.
"A simple case of incompatability."
said Snyder, but, fortunately 1t was
discovered early. We would prefer to
say nothing more just at present"
However. B. Young plans a visit to
Reno, New. where divorces are so cas-
lily obtained.

Stevenson's Grandson Finds Treasure

The lad stopped digging because his
shovel had encountered an obstruc-

resisted proved to be metal. Then
Louis dug more furiously than ever.
In few moments he unearthed a
metal box. And, sure enough, It con-
tanned treasure. Opening 1t hastily,
the boy found $500 shares of valuable
stock, deeds to city property, other
valuable papers and several empty
ring boxes.
or course, the boy did not realize
the value of the property. but he knew
the papers must be worth a great deal
or they would not have been placed
In such a secure box. So he hastily
carried his find to his mother, who
turned the property over to the police.
The papers belong to Augustus I'm

closed and who Is out OF the city. The
police think robbers ransacked the
Imbrie residence and, after taking
money and jewelry from the box,

WHEN THE DEAD RETURN

This is a story or mistaken identity
OF remarkable character. Mary McGon-
lyle was struck by a trolley car In
New York last April and died shortly
afterwards in a hospital. On notifica-
tion from the coroner, her relatives
came to view the body and she was
identified by her son, her sister, her
brother and cousin; a burial permit
was issued in the name of Mary Nc
Gonigle; an insurance company paid
$117 on the life of Mary McGonigle;
the traction company paid $3.50 for the
funeral of Mary McGonigle; the body
of Mary McGonigle now lies in Cal
vary cemetery.
Late one night recently Mary Nc
Gonigle in the flesh walked into her
sisters home.
To say there was surprise at her
visit would understate the emotions OF
the relatives. The sister screamed;
the brother dropped his new clay pipe
and small niece tainted. Mrs. Nc
Gonigle herself was surprised but
placid she had not read the newspa-
pers, and did not know that she was
supposed to be dead.
Then came explanations. Mary Nc
Gonigle had been buried all right. but
it was the wrong Mary. The living
woman is in private service and her
address fiuctuates with her employ
ment. The dead woman who bears
such an extraordinary resemblance to
her was no relative, but had known
her, and had given her address to the
hospital. The undertaken who buried
the late Mary, was summoned to view
the living Mary. II never saw such a
resemblance" he gasped, land I've
buried many"

some of the guests tried their French

was the only reply. Again there was
a whispered series of compliments on
the graceful movements of the trim
figure.
AS the card play began the maid"
retired, and a few minutes later the
guest of honor, Mrs. Fleckenstein, en-
tered the room in her party gown.
