Taylorsville, Ga., Feb. 28.—
The agricultural region surround
ing this town is in a fever of ex
citement over a pot containing
$1,000 in gold which Clint Davis
plowed up on his land. Davis
was informed by some of his old
neighbors that his father had con
cealed the gold there and that it
was probable he would find other
treasures on different parts of his
farm. Davis thereupon offered a
liberal commission to any one who
would locate more gold. The
farmers of the vicinity have de
serted their regular business:
have impressed into service all
sorts of tools, and are industrious
ly burrowing up different sections
of the state.
We want to hear just one ser
mon from the fellow who can beat
the preacher preaching. We want
to witness one day’s teaching by
the same fellow who can beat the
teacher teaching. We waht to
watch the fellow do a day’s plow
ing that can beat the farmer farm
ing. And there is the fellow who
knows more about medicine than
all the doctors in the universe;
we want to see him practice the
art on himself for just one day.
And there is the fellow who can
beat the editor, ten to one, in get
ting out a paper. We want to
see what kind of a sheet he would
issue from the press. The trouble
with such characters is that they
cannot attend to their own busi
ness, and therefore they think
they know all about that of other
people.—Exchange.
The death of Tai Won Kun,
father of the king of Korea, which
was made known to the minister of
that country yesterday, will sim
plify its politics. He was probably
the wickedest villain on earth,
and for fifty years had been at the
bottom or the top of all the mis
chief that has occurred in the her
mit kingdom. He was regent
during the minority of the king,
who inherited the throne from a
childless uncle, and ruled with
the most brutal despotism for a
quarter of a century. It was while
he was at the head of affairs that
we had our little war with Korea,
which resulted in opening the
country to foreigners. He was
the foe of all forms of progress,
and particularly hostile to mis
sionaries and modern improve
ments. He murdered thousands
of people who stood in his way or
refused to bend to his will, and it
took three years for the govern
ment to get rid of him after the
king became -of age. Twice he
was the prime mover in plots to
assassinate his own son, and three
times attempted the asassination
the queen. The last attempt was
successful in 1895. The old
scoundrel lived in a palace a few
miles outside the city, surrounded
by a double guard—one of his
own, in whom he had confidence,
to protect him against the ven
geance of those he had injured,
and another provided by the gov
ernment to prevent him from leav
ing the place. He seems to have
died a natural death, and it is al
most a miracle, for no man on
man on earth was so viciously
hated.
BANG! WENT THE ORCHESTRA.
1 Barn! ” Said the Girl at a Critical Point
in the Dramatic Story.
“ It was about the neatest skin
game, if it was a skin game at all,
that I’ve ever been up against.”
The man in the orchestra seat
was talking between the acts to
his companion in tones so clear
that they were quite audible to
the girl, with the theater hat in
the row behind, if she leaned for
ward a little, and she did so lean.
“ Happened to me last time I
was in Washington,” continued
the man. “ I went into a restaur
ant there—very nice-looking sort
of place—and ordered a lunch.
My table was one of those small
ones with a seat on each side of it.
Pretty soon in comes a young fe
male, puts her shopping bundles
on the window sill and takes the
seat opposite.
“ Pretty ?” inquired his com
panion.
“ Oh, well, I don’t know, didn’t
notice particularly, but—”
“ Wasn’t,” observed the other.
“ Go on.”
“ Anyway,” continued the nar
rator, “ She ordered some things
to eat and finished ’em before I
finished mine, for I was taking
things easy. Then she got up
and went away, leaving her bun
dles on the window sill. By and
by the waiter comes in with a bill
for her lunch as well as mine. I
kicked. He insisted. Said the
lady had lunched with- me and I
must pay. By that time I was
being worked, but rather than
have any row I paid both checks
and took the satisfaction of tell
ing the manager he was running
a blackmailing joint. ‘ Ill take
these with me, anyway,’ I said
gathering up the bundles which
my mysterious vanishing compan
ion had left. At first they kick
ed on that, but I was firm. I put
them under my arm and went
down to my hotel.”
“ What was in ’em ? ” asked his
companion. •
“ That’s the queer part of it,
the part that makes me uncertain
if it was a game or not.”
The girl behind leaned forward
so eagerly that a feather of her
big hat tickled the ear of the
speaker. He paused to brush it
away. The girl bobbed back hast
ily.
“ No sooner,” continued the
man, “ had I opened the first bun
dle than there fell—”
“ Bang ! went the orchestra in
the tumultuous opening of the
prelude to the last act.
“ Darn! ” said the girl with the
theater hat violently and looked
daggers at the young man in the
adjoining seat because he laughed.
