THKl'OST OF PROFANITY IN OLDKN T1MFS At the trial of n rase in the Pike County Courts, the rpconl shows thnt ml jectives wtre ptnloyed to ex press with force tho testimony. At the Jnnunry Sessions 1831 in an in dictment for nssnnlt nnd buttery, in wliich Elijah Doolittle wns the de- fendnnt upon the trlnl of tho ense hefore the court and jury, Jmnes Hoin'ot'ck, the prosecutor behiR under examinntion testified nnd nid thnt he wns"elegnntly whipped" by tliedefendent. Afterwords Elina Brown wns calle:l nnd sworn ns a witness on the part of the defendant and ii)on his examination before the court and jury, be wns asked by the court, whethor as Hornbeek stated ho was "elegnntly whipped?" The said Elias Brown impudently, contemptuously, nnd profanely, an swered nnd said, "Yes ho wns pretty damned well whipped." Whereupon the court for the aforesaid impudent, contemptuous, nnd profane answer, do sentence the said Elias Brown to pay n fine of five dollars and-stnnd committed until the sentence is com plied with. Tho Greatest Depth Of The Ocean Ever Measured The verified soundings are those made in tho Atlantic Ocean ninety miles off the island" of St. Thomas, in the West Indies, 3,875 fathoms, or 21), 250 feet. Deeper water lias been reported south of the Grand Bank of Newfoundland, over 27,000 feet in depth bnt additional sound ings in that locality did not corro borate this Home years ago it was claimed that very deep soundings from 45000 to 48000 feet had been found of the coast of South America but tins report was altogether dis credited on additional investigation in these localities. The ship Chal lenger which in 1872-74 made a voyage round for the express purpose of taking deep sea soundings in all the oceans found the greatest depth touched in the Pacific Ocean less than 3000 fathoms, and the lowest in the A lantic, ?,875 fathoms, as given a hove. How Tho Twelve Apostles Died According to the generally re ceived traditions of the church, An drew suffered martyrdom at Pa trie, in Achaia, on a cross known as St. Andrew's cross; Bartholomew was crucified at Albanopolis in Armenia ; James, the elder, son of Zebedee, was beheaded ; James, the brother of our Lord, was probably stoned to death ; Matthew died a natural death; Philip died n violent death at Hiorapolis, but by whnt mode is uncertain ; Simon Peter was cruci fied nt Rome; Thnddeus, of Jude, probably suffered martyrdom in Per sia ; John, the beloved disciple, lived, according to Jeromo, to lie about 100 years old, and died at Ephesis ; Simon Zclotes was cruci fied nt 129 years of nge ; Thomas was put to death in India ; and Ju das Iseariot hung himself. They Were Thirsty Then. Either a wave of temperance must have swept over little Pike in 1827, or else there was an unmiti gated amount of illegal selling of liquor, and general drinking, for nt the August session of the Court in 1827 twenty-four indictments were found by the Grand Jury against different persons for keeping "tip pling houses." It seems that many of the accused bocame convinced thas some other climate would be more healthy, for the Sheriff made return on the Capias placed in his hands for their arrest "non est in ventus," which means, freely trans lated, that they had skipped. The enstom dors not, however, appear to have boon entirely broken up, for nt the August sessions in 1830 eleven more indictments were returned true bills. Most of tho cases seem to have been settled in some way, for there is no record that the defendants were put on trial. Ayers Newspaper Manual. N. W.

Our Inly tCulm. Spnln Not t.lkcly to rrnlnnft the War. ltlnnro Rffnnrfl to Re Lt-e. Hnttne Committee Agree. The I'realrient Heplles to the Powers. Wawiinoton, D.C., April 11, 1898. On to Cuba 1 That is the order that will be issuod the minute that Congress nets upon President Me Kinley's recommendation for armed intervention tor the purpose of driving Spain from Cuba, nnd there will be no delay on the part of Con gress in adopting the resolution that will place the authority in the hnnds of the President to use the army nnd navy of the United States to force the Spanish out of Cuba. Proclaiming an armistice in Cuba was a trick worthy of Spain, but it failed to bring the delay nt the Washington end that Spain expec ted. Unless there is some unex pected delay, onr warships will be demanding the evacuation of Cuba with shot and shell before the close of the present week. Tho Spanish will, of course, have a chance nu to the last minute before the shooting begins to peaceably surrender Cuba, but there is now nothing in Bight to indicate that they will get out until they are forced out. In intervening in Cuba this GovJ ernment has no intention of making a war of conquest, but in the lan guage of President McKinley, is merely endeavoring to fulfill a duty to humanity by ending a situation the indefinite prolongation of which has become insufferable." There fore whether the war will go furth er than is necessary to drive the Spanish out of Cuba will depend upon the Spanish themselves. While the official plan of operations is not known outside of those who are in trusted with the duty of carrying it out, it is understood that the initial navn demonstration of this govern ment will be made against Cuba alone, and that no hostile move ment againt the Spanish colonies in tho PhiHipine Islands, the Canary Islands or Porto R co wid be made unless the opposition of the Spanish navy to our taking possession of Cuba is such as to render such steps necessary. i There is an impression anion? naval officers that if Spain doa not make an abject surrender beforethe fighting begins, it will throw up the sponge before we ha ve nn opportuu-1 ity to completely destroy its navy, I and so call upon the European pow-1 ers to arrange some sort of pence f r , her. It is thought thnt the diatrib-! ntion of the Spnnish navy indicates j that nn attempt will be made by her ' fastest ships to attack some of our sencoast cities and to avoid bnttle , with us unless they can find some of 1 onr ships in positions where they ' can be overpowered and either sunk or captured. Naval officers will be surprised if Spain placesany portion I of her navy where it. will come int ) oontnst with the powerful fleet that we will send to invest Cuba. Sixty days is the outside guess of onr nav al officers as to tho length of the war. Gen. Blanco did not improve the relations between Congress and Spain when he made a discourteous monkey of himself by refusing to see Consul Gonoral Lee whon he called to say an official goodbye just previous to his departure from Ila vanna. It is likely also that Gen. Lee may have some stories to toll when he reaches Washington that will likewise add to the existing en mity towards th Spaniards. An informal agreement has been reached by the House Committee on Ways and Means, which has been considering the matter for several weeks, that the war revenue bill to bo reported to the House as soon as hostilities begin, shall include a pro vision increasing tho internal reve nue tax on beer from $1 to t'2 a bar rol, notwithstanding tho arguments of the representatives of the brew ers who were granted hearings last week. It is estimated that this in-J crease in tho beer tax w ill add f 35, 000,000 a year to the Government's revenues, lobacco, in its various manufactured forms, is relied upon ta produce ns much more ; likewise a tax on several kinds of commer cial paper. A bill has also been prepared by Chairman Dlngley, pro- viding for tho issue of bonds to the amount of 100,000,000, as a tempor ary loan, and from three to five times that amount, as may be needed, as a permanent loan. These bonds will be payablo in coin, just as all our outstanding bond are, and are to boar 3 per cent, interest. Al though offers of more than $500,000, 000 have been made to the Govern ment by large financial i- stitutions, it is probable that any bonds issued will be offered to the public and al lotted to those who first apply for them, at their lace value. Although couched in the most moderate language, President Mo Kiuloy'a reply to the joint note of the six great European nations, on our relations with Spain, will toko its place in history alongside of t he Monroe Doctrine. There was no word of bluster, bnt every Euro pean power understood its meaning perfectly that the United States bad determined that Spanish rule in Cuba should cease forever, nnd that no interference with its policy would be tolerated. The represen tatives of nt lcist two European powers France and Austria and possibly those of a third Italy had hopes of arranging some sort of European joint intervention, but they nbandotied them nfter hearing Mr. McKinley's reply to the joint note which was intended to be a friendly feeler. The two year-old son of W. L. Furgason of Bolton, Miss., had whooping cough. "After several physician hud prescribed for him, without giving relief," writes Mr. Fergnson, "I jiersnnded my wife to try a 25 cent bottle of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. The first (lose bad the desired effect, and in forty-eight hours he was entirely free from nil cough.
