Mr. Del'ass is ( now in the city of (Jalveston. Texas, , in search of the two witnesses who signed the last will and testament in | that eltv in 1802. .1. A. Sawyer, who . is assisting Mr. Del'ass, left for j Atlanta Tuesday and should the two , witnesses, Henry McNeasc and P. (J. Odell be found, May 1st Messrs.

After , saving up a little money he liought a place near West Springs and sent for Ids son to come and help him work his ] farm. The purchase of the farm and | a couple of horses took all the money he and Ids sou had saved. They there- , fore gave . 1. (.}.

However they tried-again, i During that year the fat her married ( Mrs. Alexander and t he next year lie t went to gold mining at the then | Thompson gold mines, and has been | engaged in that business more or less v ever since, scarcely making more than i a living for himself and family. His t son is now a mail carrier between this s pmce una >vesi ."springs, in addition to 'j which lie poddies chickens and eggs r along the road. As mail carrier he re- t ceives about $10 ;i month. t. Several days ago Mrs. .John 1'. Hop- j kins came into the possession of a scrap of newspaper which Icjl.vV.djj,^discovery that she an(l?.V,Jr ^ wcrc J ' no- 1 ,rs U) the estate. From where the t clipping came and the year is not j known, but it is evident that it was a last year's clipping. It reads as fol- [ lows: j "Los Angeles, Cul,, Dec. 0. An allcgcd will of the late Clias. Ilill alias I ''Salem Charley," wlio left an estate i of $14*4,000 in cash, for wliich ninner- * pus claimants have appeared, was tiled today by Mrs. Gertrude Driggs. * The document is written in pencil on ' a scrap of paper and bears the signa- l Vures of George Manning, a famous counterfeiter, now dead, and I), i Driggs, the former husband of the t woman. The will is dated .Ian. i t, ' 18HH, and leaves the entire Hill estate to Gertrude Driggs, said to be a varic- l ty actress, the 15 year old daughter I of Mrs. Driggs." i As soon as Mrs. Hopkins read it, she > fe ie em be red the name and that she ' had a will made by the same person. J fche tiien found the two wills, one I dated before this alleged will and the I other since. i As soon as she had found them she < sent them to V.

As soon as they i |?ad secured it Mr. Del'ass left for j Galveston to hunt up the witnesses, 1 while Mr. Sawyer was Vo go direct to I Eos Angeles. However, Mr. Sawyer I did not go any further t han At lanta, ' (la., where he will probably wait for I more Information. The will and deed lirst, made was i drawn up here, and had as witnesses I Mr. Philip Dunn and James Wall. Mr. Dunn was well know here and his I widow, who Is very wealthy, still re- ' sides here. ? I it is said in the will that Mr. Hill I deeded and willed everything to Alex- i andcr for "1, Clias.

BIU ABPS UTTER L \ I He Olsru*M>* Mlddl*' >h'ii Politic* | f and Other Tiling*. | t I was ruminating about the grand ( army i?f middle men that it takes to s carry on the trade and co mine roe of 1 this country. I verily bcllevo that they make more money than the [ manufacturers and there are twice as ( many of them. A friend of mine re- ( cently visited a large manufactory of 1 Revving machines and the superinten- 1 dent told him that the prime cost of ' a llrst-class machine was $1UH) and they Jobhcd them off at $l.'l. The l Jobliers sold them f*?r $15 to agents. The agents retail them at $.'15, for he has to rent a store room and keep a horse and wagon and make repairs v free and sell on installments and c sometimes lias to take a machine ' hack for non-payment. When the '' original hill Arp moved to Texas he Look Ids wife's machine with him and left 11is note behind with $10 unpaid. Shortly after that anew agent was tent here who not acquainted with the Arp family and he came out. to ny house and wanted me to pay the inte. I had hard work to convince iiin that I was another Arp. The mte was signed William Arp, his nark, and Cinderella Arp, her mark. Uy wife was very indignant that she thould he suspect-d of making her nark. Well, now you see how much money t .vent b> the middle men after the ( midline left the factory $25 t wice s is much as it cost to make it. .lust | io it is with t housands of other t hint's v jhat ko through the hands of middle | lien. v 1 was ruminating about this he- < anse 1 received a report, of 5(10 copies , >f my new hook that Mr. Ityrd had s M?ld. The hook cost Mb cents to elec j l.roytype and print and bind it and I iS was to have, half the profits arising , from the sale. Tiie price was $l.2b ( postage paid, which was II cents. , I'hirty copies had been sold here at. the hook store for $37.60. Tlio book ^ store kept 2b per cent, or $0.37. Mr. , Ityrd t $2N. 13. The freight and ( incidental expenses amount to 3 cent.s . i copy. So the cost was MS cents and | if net ted 03 cents and mv half of t he , lilVerencc was 2} cents on a copy. The \ publisher and apent or middle men , iet about all there is in a book. I i am not complaining at. anybody hut | myself, for Mr. Ityrd told me. that i the price would have tube $1.60 to ; make anything, hut I wasn't think- , in^ ah nit agents charpinp so much >, and I wanted the people to have it as , Bheap as possible, hut. it can't po on 1 Ibis way. The publication must. < stop or the price ha raise I to $1.60 | and if an a^ent won't sell for 2b cents i copy, he needn't sell at. all. The books sell themselves on the counter. Itut Mr. Ityrd can continue to sell on . mail orders for $1.2b and in cents j more for postage. This will be a fair i jivide all around and tfive the poor \ author about lb cents a copy. Ca.o. ? II 1 ih.ihu.ui i kj.ii ? speeen ;n i ancago is ' before me. Nothing since the war 1 lias so cheered me and impressed me is that beautiful speech. Why doesn't , jvery newspaper in tlic South copy it, | or that part of it that pays such a \ irilmte to the Southern people. When I i finished reading it 1 would have v tiugged the old man, if he had hern mar enough. Listen "My life polil ijally has been a life of constant strife .villi the leaders of the Southern penile, yet as 1 grow older, I have learned b ml. only to respect and esteem th mi, o jut I love the great qualities which I jelong to my countrymen of the ^ Southern States. They are a noble o ace. We may well take pittcrn from tl hem in some of the virtues that give h length and glory to a free people.

This ;i s the tirst sign of a returning sense of I justice that has coine from any great I nan of t he Old I lay State and we re* s loice that it has come from Senator ' Hoar, the noblest Unman of them all.

Thursday Vincent Chlcco, the uncrowned king of East Bay street, paid his respects to ids excellency, the governor of South Carolina. This unexpected honor came about by reason of the fact that certain vessals of the sovereign State of South Carolina had committed depredations upon the territory of the impulsive keeper of the famous resort for the bibulous in the old city by the sea. Chlcco is unique, lie made 110effort at dissimulation, but approached (Jov. 1 ley ward in a straightforward manner and protested against the determination (if the chief executive to enforce the dispensary law in Charleston. But he was unable to stir the governor from the firm and unequivocal declaration that the law shall be enforced. In vain Chieco protested that it would be ruin to himself and others like. him. (Jov. I ley ward received Chieco in a very kind and dignified manner and gave him a considerate hearing. The new chief State constable, Mr. Ilatnmett was present, and Chieco gave him the cordial greeting which Chlcco gives everybody. "Chick" became celebrated during the administration of (Jov. Tillman, and the. maker of incomparable. spaghetti and mixer of drinks divine declares that he. lias had not less than $14,000 Worth of line liquors seized from it is establishment. The raid most expensive to himself was the one in which a large quantity ol imported liquors were captured in collin boxes which had been used as a ruse. Another visitor from Charleston called upon the governor Thursday, Maj. \V. A. Boyle, chief of the police department.. The police and the con st aides have had some disput ing lately, it being alleged by ttie latter that they are not given proper support, by the |>ollce of Charleston. Maj. Bovlc presented a letter from Mayor Smyth conveying bis best, wishes to the governor. After a consultation with the mayor Chief Boyle had come to discuss Lli?; situation with the governor and to present some facts from the standpoint of the police department. 'i'he governor was assured of the support of the. Charleston police department. Furthermore it was promised that when the police are notified that a wagon Ik suspected of conveying contraband they will give, chase tnd assist in making arrests.
