The Amusing but'Trying Experience a Popular Minister of Augusta. AuguBta Chivnitlt. A popular minister of a prominent church in this city had a lively experi? ence a short time ago. He has enjoyed reciting it to his friends, but, as his per? mission to publish it has not been asked, all names in the story are withheld. A few evenings ago the minister in question was at work in'his study when there came a ring at his door hell. He responded in person, and found a comely young woman at the door, who met him with the inquiry : "Do you baptize by immersion ?", He responded affirmatively, and the young woman went on to explain that is, woman lay in the hospital at the point of death, or at least very ill, who desired baptism, but insisted on immersion. She had volunteered to go for a minister, and hence her presence. Could the minister goat once wish her to the hospital ? He expressed his readiness to do so, and they. set out on tho way together. As they proceeded the young woman explained that she did not stay at the hospital, and that her failure to find several ministers at home whom she had first called on had consumed a good deal of time, and that though - the. dusk of evening was fast settling over the city she was a good ways from home. To add to her discomfort she had a husband at home who would scold her for being out so late alone. Prompted by bis goodness of heart and chivalric nature the minister told her to wait at the hospital until be got through with the lady whom-he was going to see there, and he would walk home with her and explain the" circumstances of the case to her hnsband. The young woman gratefully accepted. The minister was detained longer than he had anticipated at the bedside of the sick- woman, and when he was ready to go it was nearly or quite nine o'clock. It gets late quite early these May even? ings. To add to the interest of the situ? ation, the minister now learned for the first time that the home of the young woman was down about May Park. He was in for it though, so, with ministerial resignation, be set out oo the long walk, painfully conscious that every step was taking him further from home, and. away from his supper, which had been for some time awaiting his return. The delay at the hospital had added materially to the apprehension of the young woman, who now began to express genuine con? cern at the reception she would meet with at the hands of her husband. She declared that he was very jealous of her, and was unreasonable when his suspicions were aroused. She feared that he would doubt her story when Bhe explained the cause of her absence from home at so late an hour. The minister began to think things were looking rather.interesting for him. He knew that in all probability this irate German bad never seen him before, and, if he was such a jealous Othello as the fright? ened little Desdemona at his side evi? dently believed him to be, there might be some trouble in making him appreci? ate the circumstances of the case. How? ever, he put a bold face and confident tone on the matter, and told the young woman that he would Bee her husband and explain the case to him himself, j The young woman, eagerly, accepted this further courtesy at the'bunds of her escort, but was still far from being at her; ease, and the way. in which'she contin? ued to discourse upon the unreasoning jealously of her husband was not calcu? lated to add to the perfect happiness of her new found Mend. Just at this poinf; they arrived at a small corner store, and she told the minister to wait outside and she would go and see if her husband was ?there. He was to raffle a clock there that night and might still be there. She soon came back with the informatics that the clock had been raffled and won by her husband on a chance which he had reserved tor himself. She was greatly pleased at this, for they were quite poor, and had thus kept the clo :k and gotten the money from the raffle besides. Even this stroke of good fortune did not long dispel her anxiety, however, and as they approached her home r.he renewed the recital of her apprehensions about their reception. Presently the front gate was reached, and through the open window the minister discovered a big; broad-shouldered, honest-looking Dutchman, who might be a rather un? comfortable man to have a misunder? standing with. He was not anticipating any misunderstanding though, and with a bold air mounted the steps and knocked at the door. In a moment the husband confronted them. He had been cooking supper, and the stove key which he car? ried in his hand had rather an ominous look. When he discovered the well dressed gentleman before him in company with his wife he demanded rather uncere? moniously : "Who's you?" This was not a very reassuring begin? ning, but, clothed in the righteousness of his cause, the minister responded prompt ly : ? "I am Mr.-, a minister of the gospel." He then proceeded as briefly as possible to relate the circumstances under which he happened to be w;th his wife, the delay which had occurred at the hospital, and the fact that he had come home with his wife because she wob afraid to go alone through the streets after dark. He was congratulating himself upon having gotten through the interview bo happily when the German ejacula? ted: "I don't know about dot Btory; you don't look like a minister; you lookolike dot drummer." This was a paralyzing surprise. The minister had come at once from h:? study in undress uniform, as it were, und he glanced inwardly that there was nothing strictly clerical in the cut of his gar? ments. "But I assure you, my good man, that I am a minister. I'll show you my card." He dived into his pocket foi a card, and, as fate would have it, they were in his other coat. He hadn't a letter or a ningle thing by which ho could identify himself. " Vere does you broach ?" demanded the suspicious Dutchmnn. "I am the pastor nf the-church on-street," responded the minis? ter. "Ven docs you breach dere ag'in ?" "On Sunday next, mornin;? and night." ' "I will be dere Sundsy nide to hear yoo, if you breach den it's all right, hut if you don't (turning to his wife) I gifs you dun der and blitzen." This ended the amusing but rather try? ing interview) and the minister laughed to himself at the singular experience, and wondered if that German.really meant to come to hear him preach on the next Sunday night. But all doubts were re? moved when the time arrived, for when he went into the pulpit there sat the sus? picious husband of the young woman whom he had escorted home a few nights before. The sequel of the story is that the other day when the old German was taken I sick he sent for the minister, whom he hadguspected, to come and ueo him. The minister has since busied himeelf trying to get work for the German, who h very poor, but who has letters highly com? mending him as a skilled workman, and the little incident proved the means of making a strong friend for the minister, and probably of securing work for a deserviog man. The Spirit of Cameron's Bass In the summer of 1882 W. C. Hart, the geologist, and two other enthusiastic collectors of specimens, were encamped near the lava beds between the head? waters of the Cache de la Foudre River and North Park. It was a rongh, broken region, and the desolation was heighten? ed by the proximity of the crater of an extinct volcano, while bare rocks and dead timber were everywhere. The hope of securing rare formations for their cab? inets attracted the gentlemen to the uncanny spot, for every one averred that Cameron Pass was haunted by the spirit of an emigrant's daughter. Joe Shepler, a well-known mountainer, who was pilot? ing the party through the hills, had often seen the ghost and promised his compan? ions that they should view the strange apparation before returning to their homes. He said the spirit was a thief, and frequently stole food and furniture from the camps of hunters who ventured within the precincts of her uninviting domain. At dinner August 12, 1882, Shepler calmly announced that the spirit ; of Cameron Pass was approaching, and I pointed to a strange being which was I swiftly moving towards ths camp. The marauder came to within five hundred yards of the men, and seizing a haunch cf venison which had been placed on a "tone ran with it. Hart picked up his rifle, and, calling on his comrades to follow, started in pursuit of the thief. She?they were Bure it was a woman? Lad them a lively race directly toward the lavabeds. Being close pressed, the hunt? ed creature dropped the meat and sped onward to the opening of a cave. The pursuers entered the cavern on the heels of the strange robber and found the warm body of a dead woman. The fright and exertion had killed her. The corpse was that of a woman about twenty-five years old. Her only elothing was a rude gown fashioned of skins. Her hair was very long and she was sunburned and bare? footed. Tho remains were buried decent- i ly. An exploration of the cave disclos? ed the fact that it had for somo time been used as a habitation by the alleged spirit. The ground was covered with boneB, and although there were cooking utensils about, it was evident that they had never been used. The unfortunate girl had subsisted on stolen meat and roots and leaves. She had dried meat ? for winter use. For sereral years the wild girl was thought to be a spirit.?Chicago- Herald, ... ? A-singular freak of nature has pre? sented itself in El Faso,' ; On Sunday il?rs^TrTHoTf'ard of that place -witnessed I a balloon ascension, and on the succeed? ing Tuesday presented Mr. Howard with a nice little boy, which bears a singular birthmark, which is nothing more nor less than a perfect representation of the balloon.

These symptoms result from the effort of nature to tihrow of the impurities, in which she should be assisted by Swift's Specific. This will remedy the disturbance, and bring speedy and permanent relief by forcing out the poison, and will build up the system from the first dose. After recovery from a severe attack of congestion of the brain and stomach, my little Bon had a nnmber of bad ulcers and running sores to come on his head and body, which lasted for four years. I tried all the doctors and many remedies which were recommended by other parties, but the sores grew worse, until I did not ex? pect him to recover. My friends were confident that if the sores healed it would kill him. I at length^quit all other treatment and.put him on Swift's Speci? fic, and leas than three bottles cured him Bound and well, and he is to-day a sound and healthy child. S. S.

Hartford, Cojsn., June 15.?An investigation has just been concluded by the Connecticut State Board of Health in the matter of the poisoning of over one hundred persons last month from eating vanilla ice cream at a church festival in Glastonbury. The result should be a warning to amateur ice cream makers. The poiHoniDg was variously attributed at the time to impure vanilla extract, to sour milk and to the action of the cream on the cerroded zinc and lead surfaces of the freezer, The chemists found that the extract was pore, the corrosion unimportant, and that the real trouble was with six quarts of the milk used. This was not cooled after milking, but remained in a cool place in a covered pail for two hours. Such treatment aa this, the chemists find, is favorable to the generation of tyrotox icon, so named by Professor Vaughan of the University of Michigan, who detected the poison while investigating an ice cream poisoning case in his State. , In the Glastonbury case the tainted milk was mixed with other milk and after the costard was made the whole mixture was left five hours before freezing, thus charging the entire masB with tyroxi c >n. The chemist cite in support of their finding that the lady who made the ice cream ate some of the custard before freezing it and suffered slightly from its effectB. They claim that no milk that is tainted or has not been properly cooled should be used in ice cream, especially such milk as this, which was in process of decay. Brother Brown. Mr. J.'Pw. Spence, of Carroll ton, Ga., relates a true war story, as told him by an old soldier whose veracity cannot be denied. The story runs thus: Away back in the forties T. J. Brown, one of the pioneer settlers of Carroll county, aud who is remembered by many of the old settlers, moved to northern Mississippi. When he reached his place of destiny he had nothing, with the exception of a pony and yoke of oxen. He bought a farm on credit and went to work. Fortune smiled on him so abun? dantly that when the war came up he was the owner of a large farm, mill, a big ginnery and a magnificent mansion ; and, moreover, had managed to lay up about a peck of gold. Everything moved along quietly until Sheridan made a raid through that part of Mississippi. Brown, as a true patriot would have done, sided with the South, bntoneofhis nearest neighbors was a unionist. Brown's union neighbor was so kind as to inform some of Sheridan's men that Brown was in peaceful posses? sion, of.a vast quantity of gold. It waB not many days before they called on him for his gold, but Brown in the meantime had taken the precaution to hide his precious metal. . Time and again did they demand his gold, but, finding that demands were of no .avail they burned his ginhonae, together with forty bales of cotton, in order to bring him to terms. Becoming exasperated at his obstinacy, after riding his dwelling of all its valuables, including accounts, notes and land deeds, they submitted it to the flames. As Brown was not to be induced to tell where his hidden treasure was by the conflagration of his property, they de? termined, as a last resort, to swing the old man (for he was then seventy years old) up to a limb. Taking him to an oak that stood in the yard, they swung the old man up to a limb three times but he was not to be brought to terms?not even by fear of death. His wife stood near and begged him to tell where his gold was hidden. She would have told herself, but, as it happened, she did not know where it was. Brown, in speaking of the matter afterwards, said that be would have died rather than told them; not that he prized his gold so highly, but that he was determined not to be forced to do a thing by his enemies. On letting him down the third time, his persecutors left him senseless on the ground. They gave him up sb a hopeless case, and left. Brown soon recovered, and heard a continual firing for a few minutes in the direction they had gone. Brown walked out that way after the shooting had ceased, and found the dead bodies of several of the men who had been his tormentors, and in the pockets of one of them he found his notes and land deeds. After leaving Brown's they had met some confederate soldiers, who had made it hot for them. Brown belonged to the Primitive Bap? tist church, which denomination does not tolerate profane swearing, debauch? ery, etc, While the federals were des? troying his property, Brown could not retrain from making use of a few oaths. For this the good old brethren had him arraigned in their ecclesiastical court. Brother Brown, in making his acknowl? edgement, said: "Brethren I did curse them, I do not deny it. I am not sorry for it either; I felt ju^t like I were doing God's service." 'The brethren readily decided that the brother was excusable for cursing under the circumstances.?

It lue just leaked out that a citizen of] Charlotte has been hunting around for some of Sherman's buried treasures, and a good deal of digging and ploughing in South Carolina soil has been done, but unsuccessfully, eo far as raking up the hidden gold is concerned, A Neios reporter got hold of the story yeBterday, and it is worth publishing, be? cause it is true, and because $27,000 in gold and silver coin, stolen by Sherman's raiders, lies buried in the soil not many miles south of Charlotte. When Shermau was on his famous march to the sea, he collected as he passed through South Carolina, seventeen wagon loads of gold and silver coin, jewelry, gold and silver table ware, etc.. These wagons were placed in charge of a Bpecial guard. One night while all was quiet in camp the sergeant who was in charge of the guard entered into collusion with bis squad, and they stole from a wagon $27,000 in gold and silver, in addition to the gold pitcher that was voted to John C. Calhoun by the South Carolina Legislature, and which had been gobbled up by Sherman's raid? ers. They carried their booty to a negro burial ground near by and buried it. That night, after the sergeant's guard had been relieved, the sergeant sneaked off to the graveyard, dug up the treasure, and buried it somewhere else, expecting by this move to eventually secure it all for himself. A week later he was bush? whacked and mortally wounded. He was attended by a Federal surgeon, to whom, I just before be died, he related the whole circumstance of the hidden treasure, Siving him at the same time as good a escription of its hiding place as possible. After the war, the Burgeon spent months and months trying to find the hiding place of this gold and silver, but had to give it up. Finally, not long ago, he communicated the facts to a friond in Charlotte, and this friend has been trying to find the treasure, but without avail, The Charlotte man found the deceased sergeant's name on the army register at Washington, visited hia family in Massa? chusetts, and gained all the information possible, but has not yet been able to lo? cate the place where the treasure is con? cealed. The ?27,000 in gold and silver is buried within half a mile of the grave yard, but the exact spot has not yet been located. In case it is dug up by the Charlotte man, Calhoun's gold pitcher will be restored to the State of South Carolina.?Charlotte, N..C, Ncvx. . ?
