He claimed that this book was inspired through a vision he saw while ln prison at Raleigh.

Without experience In farm ing his articles were practical and when followed brought good results. During his mining experience he se cured fourteen patents on gold-saving devices, but never succeeded to any great extent in Interesting miners in them. For the past dozen .years he led an aimless life; wandering from place to place, spending much time in Washington during the sessions of Congress, endeavoring to Induce that body to reimburse him for money he claimed to have lost by reason of the government cutting him out of his mall contract.

Recent rains raised the well un usually high and Thursday while casually looking Into the well Martin saw the same old two pounds of but ter floating about serenely. He fish ed it out, and he and two neighbors tasted It straight and with bread and, strange as It may seem, the 13-year-old butter was as good and sweet as the day It was made. All three have mad affidavit to the butter; good condition, and as all three are living to-day it must be so. MEAT DEALER KILLED. Found.

Under the watchful paternal eye of the United States government Miss Matilda Hanorne. u shapely and teautlful Indian girl whose home Is at Orlck. Humboldt county, com pleted a wearisome Journey across the continent Sunday. Miss Ilancoirie has been a student at the United States Indian school at Carlisle, Pa., and when she decided to return to her California mountain Superintendent M Friedman at once began to pave the way for a safe and jjeasant Journey for his "charge. Elizabeth Howell, another student, was coming West as far as Elko, Nev., and Friedman put the two girls on the train armed with all manner of letters and credentials. In the mean time he had sent letters ahead of the girls to assure their accommodations on the way. Aside from her inexperience in traveling there was little need of the Federal government taking such pre cautions regarding Miss Hancorne's Journey, for she is a bright, wide awake girl w ho. speaks English per fectly and bears herself with an In dependent carriage. If there is any thing about her to attract attention in a crowd It Is her striking beauty nnd the nprfect tnstA with which she i dresses. The girl sailed for Eureka Tues it 35 day.

The suggestion of Senator Over man, of North Carolina, that the gov ernment Impose a tax of $12 per capita upon all Immigrants coming into this country would, if adopted, serve the dual purpose of raising revenue and of limiting immigration to this country.-We have always con tended that It was inconsistent In the Republican party to Insist upon high duties on the products' of foreign pauper labor for the protection of the American mechanic and laborer, and yet to permit this same pauper labor to come Into this country almost Without restriction and here com pate with us on our own ground. If the foreign laborer Is willing and able to underbid American, ln the labor field, why can they not also un derbid them after coming to '.hi country? We do not believe that such a tax per capita as that suggested would deter any desirable immigrant from coming to this country and that it would, on the other hand, suffice to keep out much that is undesirable. We would bar no honest, law-abiding. Industrious foreigner from these shores, but, on the other hand, would welcome them. That is the class we desire. But we would draw the line against the lawless, the shiftless and Improvident element as far as practi cable and more particularly against the anarchistic element. 3&e would be very glad to see h rh,1 Overman suggestion taken up se ously and an experiment made along the line he suggests. If the Repub lican are sincere in their protectlon istlc theory, we cannot ee how they can conetstenly oppose this propo sition. Confeaoeo to Murder. Atlanta, Ga..
