OLEN NUGGETS FOR SALLO PEOPLE _______________ Kodol Dyspepsia Cure fE0If3I[O11YTR NOW UNDER THE SEA. Many Weird and Historic Beatures Near the Jamestown Exposition Site' Norfolk, Va.-Intending the shore of the Chesapeake, be tween Cape Henry and the spot where the Jamestown Ter-Cen tennial Exposition is to be held by Hampton Roads, next year, is Lynnhaven Bay, famous not only for its fine oysters, but also for the ghostly tales that are told of it by the score. Chief among these are the stories of the sunken graveyard, of Grace Sherwood. Witch, and of the Pi rate Blackbeard's treasure long supposed to be buried in the vicinity. The sunken graveyard was originally the property of the Old Parish Church, which stood on Church Point, but which has long since been dismantled and of which no stick or stone re mains. At the time the church stood there the graveyard was high and dry above the bay. It was next to the sea, however, and while no man can say wheth er the ground sank, or the sea rose, it is supposed that the soil, being soft, gradaally sank as the water worked in underneath. Until a few years ago tall persons could wade out to the spot where the ridges of the graves could; be felt underfoot and the tombstones observed. One investigator of the sunken graveyard by feeling a tombstone with his hand found the name cut on it to be Pallet, formerly a well known family in Princess Anne country. A short distance inland are the few bricks remaining of what was once the Old Donation church so called because of the fact that a farm in the neighborhood was donated to the church for the purpose of educating eight chil dren. In the vicinity of the site of the Donation church is a large mound, long 'supposed to have been thrown up there by the Indians. Its origin is still in volved in mystery, but old set tlers around the vicinity, recall ing the fact that the adjacent waters were long the haunt of the notorious buccaneer, Blackbeard, declare that the mound is the sole surviving relic of that pirate chieftain's stronghold. It is said that the blood-thirsty Corsair, with his gang of sea robbers, buried treasure there by the wheel-barrow load, and that as often as they made a good haul, they would turn to the sandy shore, just inside Cape Henry, and bury their plunder Curious visitors to this neigh borhood are often puzzled at the name Witch's Duck, which dis tinguishes one of the small inlets of the bay. It was in this inlet that Grace Sherwood, charged with being a witch, was ducked in 1706 after being tried on the omplaint of Luke Hill and wife. She was afterwards tried and onfined in jail on the charge of being a witch. Lynnhaven bay gets its name from a supposed resemblance to the Ouse near Lynn Regis, or ing's Lynn, in Norfolk county, England. The Guard Mount. Under the supervision of Capt. Henry W. Carpenter of the United States Marine Corps, the Jamestown Exposition is organ izing a military force to be known as the Powhatan Guard, for the purpose of policing the grounds and of keeping the peace and. order of the entire Exposition. Capt. Carpenter is sending out upon application an enrollment blank, which enables him to ascertain the value of each ap-' phcant. A limited number of these blanks are being sent to the, military institutions of the State in the hope of securing the ser vices of some of the students, whose military experience makes1 them desirable to fill the ranks of this organization. The entire command of the guard is in the hands of Capt. Carpenter who intends to carry on the work under the strictest military dis ipline. In the enrollment of the guards men of military experience who have served either in the army, navy or marine corps, State mil itia or military college will be given first consideration. Captain Carpenter who has been detailed by the navy de partment to command the Ex position Guards has established his headquarters at the Atlantic Hotel in - Norfolk, Va. His career has been a very interest ing one and owing to the wide experience he has had in the public reception of foreign guests he is perhaps the most efficient officer that could have been detailed for the position. The guard will be organized as a batallion of probably four com panies, one of which is to be mounted. Each company will be organized and commanded as are the United States troops. The uniforms are to be of a simple, yet impressive design, consisting of a gray blouse and trousers of a military cut and the regulation army campaign hat. The mount ed guards are to have the same uniform with the addition of rid ing breeches and black strap leggings. A white sun helmet and uniform of cotton duck will also be provided for hot weather. Capt. Carpenter has formula ted the following conditions of enrollment in the guard: Appli cants must be between the ages of 21 and 40 of not less than 5 feet 9 inches in height and must have served either in the U. S. army, navy, marine corps, U. S. or State volunteers, national guards or in some military school or college. The salaries to be paid to the Mounted men 830; unmounte men $25 per month, ;with an n crease for non-commissioned o. licers. In addition to this salar are allowances for uniform: subsistence, quarters, medic attention and equipments. Beside the foregoing cond tions each applicant will be r< quired to undergo a physical ej amination before he is selecte for appointment. It is expecte that the Jamestown Expositio will have one of the most effic ent organizations to guard it grounds that has ever been et listed for previous expositions. Opportunity for Military Men. The following significant statE ments are taken from differer authors bearing on home missio work. We can hardly expect a grea blessing upon our represento tives who go to the heathen i we despise and neglect the heatl en come to us.

God has packed his Americai store houses with riches o righteousness for every foreigi child of his, but a home mission ary carries the key. We have sent missionaries a great expense to many foreigi lands. Now God is sending rep resentatives of these lands to ou: shores. We must AmericanizE them, or they will, to some de gree, foreignize us; we mus Christianize them-those fron heathen lands will, to some de gree heathenize us.

I promise not to buy, drink, sell or give d Intoxicating liquors while I live: From bad companions I'll refrain . And never take God's name in vain." Human Kindness in Wrecked San Francisso. ' Human conduct was put to a terrible test, and snrvived it. Out of my own experience I re call only kindness. None was so hard-up as not to help another, even though the help went no t farther than a word. Let me be 2 more specific. When the ceiling came down t on the top floor of the Occidental Hotel we fied with barely enough f clothes for panic modesty. - Among the absent articles were 7 one pair of shoes. I barefooted it up Bush street towards Grant avenue, for the overhead trolley a and telegraph -wires in Mont - gomery and Kearny streets were f alling. Near Kearny street an i all-night cabman stood at his - horse's head. He hailed me. His O eyes glazed with terror, he said: e "Let me drive your wife and you 1 somewhere. It won.t cost you a cent. You know me-honest, too bad, it won't cost you a cent! Let 1 me drive you somewhere. Let me drive you to the cemetery." That was kindness, and it was kindness as unconscious of ghast liness as of humor. . t At Grant street we were joined t by a stranger, completely clad save for a collar, My bare fc.t troubled him more than they did me. "Here!" he said. "Here's a shoe store. Break the window and t take a pair. You can pay for them later-if there is any later." "Not yet," said I. "I guess you're right. It might start the looting." We were walking Grant ave nue, making for Portland square. "Here," he cried suddenly, "there's a Jap store and the fel low's just opening it. Get a pair of slippers." I started for the shop; my hand went mechanically for my pocket -it was empty. The stranger read my face. "You forgot your money. Help yourself to mine." Three gold twenties and a five dollar gold piece were on his palm. His thumb projected one of the twenties. He was "forcing" it as sleight-of-hand men "force" a card. L I took the $5 piece, gave it to the Jap and put on a pair of up perless bath slippers. The Jap gave me change-S4. 65. He could not have been cooler had the earthquake been merely a Russion army. I turned to give the change to the stranger. "Pat it in your pocket," he said, "and I wish you'd take some more. It may come in handy this day." "You don't know me," I said. '-You don't me," he answered, "and there's no time for ex changing cards." After five minutes argument on my part the stranger gave me his name and address, In that fragment of the picture his kindness is very vivid. My next helpful brother was a Chinaman, we met him in Ports mouth s'quare, where hundreds on hundreds of his countrymen were gathered. Of ,all of them, he alone wore the product of the American clothing store. "A pair of socks will warm your feet, . and I've got another pair for the lady," said my Chi nese stranger. "Come with me. It's only over the way to Sacra mento street. 'I own the drug store next door to the Chinese doctor." Yes, he was kind. So was the gentle old lady that found a seat with us on a bench -in the square and opened her tel escope basket and gave to the lady of my itinerant household a pair of leather slippers. Those slippers are still in commission. They shall be precious souvenirs when the city is rich again, but just now they are as blessedly useful as my own shoes, which they were the means of restoring to their original owner. We slept in another square, the Almo, high over Hayes val ley; and there, too, all was kind ness. "Tomorrow will be a hard day for the poor," said a man that had banked $15,000 the day be fore. "For the poor!" laughed a big hearted Irish cook 'who had es caped with a large pillar-slip full of tinned beef. "For the poor!" she laughed, giving him a 1can of beef. "I'd like to know what the rich have got to be rich with. "-Ashlon Stevens in The San Francisco Examiner. He Was Patient. Bishop Ellison Capers in an ad dress at Columbia, S. C., praised the virture of patience. "We may have industry," he said. "sobriety, ambition-all the ;virtues that make for success, Syet without patience we will ac Scomplish nothing. "A young man was overheard on a street corner the other night reproaching a young girl. That young man was patient. He 1 had so developed this excellent Squality that I shall not be sur Sprised some day to see him a millionaire, a college president or even a bishop. "The young man said as the Syoung woman drew near him on - the corner: i " 'What a time you have kept me waiting.' ; "The tossed her head. * "' T's only seven 'cloc,' she said, 'and I didn't promise to be here until a quarter of.'

Drug Store. Strange Pledges. London pawnbrokers are frequently asked to take strange things in pawn. The other day a Holborn pawnbroker lent $100 on a fine horse, which one of his daughters rode until it was re deemed. The same pawnbroker once took In pledge a medical chest of poi sons that were strong enough to kill 10,000 men. It was, however, a valua ble deposit, as some of the poisons were very rare. A Kensington (Eng land) pawnbroker about three weeks ago lent a sum of money on a number of autographs of dead celebrities. Before and After. Mrs. Mann-Before we were married Charles used to bring me candy when he came to see me. Now I have to buy my candy myself or go without. Mrs. Grimes-That's just the way with the men. Mrs. Mann-But, then, I don't mind it. I buy better candy than he used to buy, and as it is his money, just the same as in the old days, the new arrangement is more expensive to him than the old one.

When Maxim. the famous gun inven tor, placed his gun before the commit tee of judges, he stated its carrying power to be much below what he felt sure the gun would accomplish. The result of the trial was therefore a great ururise, instead of disappointment. It is the same with the manufacturers of Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diar rhoea Remedy. They do not publicly boast of all this remedy will accomplish, but prefer to let the users make the statements. What they do claim, is that it will positively cure diarrhoea, dysentery, pains in the stomach and bowels and has never been known to fail. For sale by The Arant Co. Drug A swindle.
