May Bond Ward County for Grain.
Mlnot—A large number of applica
tions for seed grain art being received
by the county commissioners, and they
are at present working on the problem
of raising funds with which to buy the
grain.
Under the law, the county may fur
nish both seed grain and feed, and
it Is expected that the applications
will reach a large sum. There are
two ways by which the county may
raise the money. It may issue bonds,
which must run at least two years
and cannot bear more than 7 per cent
Interest, or It may issue warrants on
the general fund. The commissioners
have not decided what method they
will follow.
Shipped Cash in Barrel.. oV
Mlnot—A clever attempt to defraud
a railroad company was uncovered in
the case against Charles Reed, the
Soo agent at Drake, who asserted he
was robbed of $1,400 while asleep in
a hotel. Reed was checked up by the
auditor of the road and found to be
about $1,100 short. The money could
not be found around
the
hotel and
the authorities were baffled. One of
tho
detectives, however, discovered
that a barrel had been shipped out of
Drake by freight the day of the al
leged robbery and was consigned to
the locality of Reed's claim in Canada.
Following thla clue bo overtook the
barrel, opened It and found, neatly
packed with stolen railroad property,
$1,200 in bills.

the trio tumbled
into a boat tied there

The boarding of the brig was man

boat was pulled into the dark shadow
of the vessel and he and the cook
climbed on deck. There were only
two men on the brig,
the others of the
crew would be put aboard at day
break. One of the men aboard was
sleepily keeping anchor watch and
him the mate sent Into the forecastle

the Ancient Greeks.

made up of 170 lettera and 78 sylla

end of the 170 letters. Aristophanea
uaed the whole word in one of his
plays. It is supposed to take in all
the ingredients of this vagm and com

But back of this philological wonder
there was a habit or creed that gave
rise to it, which,
if
one faithfully
searches out, he will find that the idea
of blending a
variety of articles for
the production of a new flavor or tast*
waa In vogue away back in the day8
of Grecian art, of which hash was one
of its fairest manifestations.

crew that the aklpper waa sick and
they interpreting the statement to
mean that the aklpper was drunk,
were rather glad of It and got under
way with a will. The skipper kept in
his box until Cape Henry had been

The nervous system of the skipper
remained tense during the voyage,
which owing to baffling winds was an
unusually long one, and when the brig
entered the harbor of St. Johns the
master reposed in the galley locker
until the cook reported the harbor as
containing only an English barque.
The poor skipper, in a vacillating
way, debated with the mate as to
whether he should remain on the
