S. Shannon, who, almost a quar- ter of a century ago, published a newspeper in this city. Said Mr. Shannon to the Republic corréspondent: “I well remember ‘Old Zeb. Lee,’ as he was called by every old pioneer.in Hancock coun- ty, and recall a circumstance which occurred 20 or 25 years ago, when I was editing a paper in Findlay. One day Mr. Lee called at the office and wanted to pay up his subscription and quit taking my paper. I asked him why he desired to sever the re- lations of publisher and subscriber which had existed for many months between us. ‘Iam going ona long journey,” answered the old gentleman, “and will not need a newspaper.” He was then almost 80 years of age, and I said: “We can forward the paper wherever you go.” “No,” replied Mr. Lee, “I am go ing ona trip and will never return. I am waiting to start at any moment, and where I go I will not need a paper.” “So he paid what he still owed me and went home to wait for the sum- mons to journey into death’s coun- try, which did not, after all, come to him for two score years thereafter, but at last, when burdened with the weight of over a century, be passed over the river to the land where news papers never go.” Dr. Benj. Dillard, druggist at Au- rora, Mc., says: I sell a great quan- tity of S. S. S. for Scrofula, Eexema, Rheumatism, and other blood trou- bles, and have never heard of a case of failure to cure. Pimples, blotches and eruptions on the skin evidence the fact that the blood is in bad shape, and these symptoms show that natureis trying to throw off the impurities, in which effort she should be assisted by a re liable vegetable blood remedy, as is Swift’s Specific. Mr. John B. Harrison, of Spring- field, Ill, says that he had blood trouble for quitea time: his tonsils were swollen, eruptions over his hands and face, followed by paraly- sis of the face, which was all relieved by Swift's Specific, and after the lapse of seven years there has been no return of the disease. Over four years ago Swift’s Spe- cific cured me of a troublesome eruption which covered my shoul- ders, back and limbs. This was after I had been treated by six doctors, some of whom said I never would get well. E. M. Hubsey, Sherman, Texas.

Every; mechanic and he can boast one of the strangest and most thrilling ex- | periences during the past few days which has ever fallen to the lot of | any man. What great mystery lies | behind his story or at least his sin- } gular adventure is left for the coro- ner to solve. A box filled with human bones, rotted by its long confinement in the earth, scarcely more than two feet long and not more than one foot wide,is now in Thomas Cooper's possesion. On the table in his room, where anyone would be allowed tu see it is another box of smilar shape and appearance. In this box lie sev- eral silver dollars, which are rusted together, several bits of golden jew- elry and two diamonds of not very great value. All these things go to confirm Cooper's explanation to the coroner in which a dream influenced and controlled his actions for sey- eral days. During the first part of last week | Cooper was foreman of a gang of | carpenters at work on the Coates One morning he called the contractor to one side and said: “I can't work to-day and would like to be excused.” | “Why, what’s the matter, Tom?” inquired the contractor. Cooper informed the contractor that for three successive nights he house. had been troubled with a dream which never varied. The figure of a woman with a little child in her arms would appear to him and say: “Go to Westport: thence three- quarters of a mile west. There you will find a farmer’s house and off to jthe right a tall tree. Dig and you will find an infant's bones and that which will reward you.” At first Cooper said he thought it nothing butadream. but its singu lar repitition troubled him. The wo- man and child appeared in the same manner three nights and each time jin the dream the woman uttered the same words. So sad did they sound that Cooper seemed to hear them all day while at work, and he was so troubled that he determined to cast the burden from his mind by follow- ing out the woman's directions. Ac- | cordingly on last Saturday morning he quit work altogether and start- ed out to Westport. So clearly had the dream shown him the way that he recognized the various points which he passed. Leaving West- por he passed out on a county road and reached the farm house indicat- ed in the dream, everything seeming as familiar as if he had been there before. He called at the farm house and borrowed a spade on the | pretext of digging for herbs and | dug according to directions in the dream. At the depth of three and a half feet he found a box rotted out ; at one end and filled with bones but nothing else. He returned home, but that night was again troubled | with the dream. ‘For three nights | the dream was repeated to him and again he went out to Westport. That was yesterday. At the depth of ; four feet he found another box sim- ilar to that containing the bones. | He opened it and found $15,50 in | Siver, stuck together, two diamonds | Since valued at $50 and some jewel- iry. Without digging further he re- | turned to this city and feeling that |it was his duty related the facts in | the case to the coroner. The result will be that more earth will fly where | the bones and treasure was found and some ghastly secret may be re- vealed.—K. C.

It takes a good deal of nerve to go a-courting down there. If the girl's parents don’t admire the per- sonality of the young man they throw many little obstacles in his way. A youth Caruthersville was licked by the father of his sweet- heart as a gentle reminder that his attentions were unsolicited. He armed his friends and raided the old mans domicile in quest of the girl. But the father with a forethought born of years of experience, had all his friends with shot guns and the matter was settled by arbitration. Then the father married the girl to another man to obviate any further difficulty. The question being thus set at rest, all hands buried their fued and went ona picnic. But the old man couldn't forget how rudely his finer feelings had been tampered with, and in a fit of absent mindedness he shot one of the lover's relatives. At last reports everybody in the township was lay- ing for everyone else and fatalities were of frequent occurrence. Ap parrently if a youth wishes to secure the object of his affections in that section it is necessary to begin with her grandfather and exterminate the family down to her little brother. This cuts outa hard job for youth- ful love, but it prevents the country from settling up too rapidly. —Chicago Mail.
