It •iiiito true, admitted Jones at, the time of his dismissal. "John Wilkes Booth, with a broken ankle, Hick and mi fieri uk the tortures of thu damned, was placed in my mmds to be spirited across tho river, and tho !?:50(,0()0 reward, or even ^.'!.0( o,(K)0, would not have cans- -d ie to turn traitor to tho somht vn (,'oniVdi ::icy, tho people I loved, and surrciider a man wiioso lifo was in my keeping,

Jones !wtcrv.ai'(i.i(j how Booth camo into )i hand ....m on the morning of tiie Mith ul A [j 11, ho said, ''when friends of hamui ('ox came to my hou so cn ITu.'klelii r: farm, Maryland, ami iclil n,e iliat- Cox wanted to see me at mice. I had heard tho evening before that Liucol had in en killed. I had a horse saddled and rode over to Cox's, who toid me that. Booth and David Ilerold had been there and wanted assistance to get across tho river. I was told where tho nun were—in a pine thicket about a miio and a halt from thu house. "I was j^iven instructions how to roach thom without being shot—certain signs by whistling, etc. Upon reaching tho dense pines 1 met Ilerold, to whom I explained that I was sent by Cox. I was then piloted to where Booth was. Ho lay on rlio grouud wrapped in a pile of blankets, and his face boro traces of pain. Booth asked many questions as to what people thought of the assassination. He appeared to bo proud of what he had done. I at the time thought ho had done a good act, but, great God, I soon saw that it was tho worst blow ever struck for tho south! "1 did tiie host I could for tho poor fellow. I carried him papers to road and something to eat and tried to keep hiiu in good spirit? until I got a chance to send him across the river. Tho country was full of soldiers and detectives, and I did not know how soon 1 could get him away. "I think it was the following Tuesday I went up to Fort Tobacco to seo how tho land lay, and it was there, in tho barroom of Brawner's hotel, that Captain William Williams, chief of the United States secret service, said he would give $300,000 to any niau who would tell where Booth was." "That's true," admitted Captain Williams at tho time of the above interview, "and he would have been General Jones instead of a discharged employee from tho navy yard if he had given tho information. "1 did the best I could for Booth and ilerold, continued Jones. "1 did not know them, hut wlun Cox put- thom in my keeping nothing would have tempted mo to betray them. I could have placed my hands on P. iot!i, but honor and truth were worth more to mo than tho entire wealth of tho government. "At tho expiration of the sixth day 1 heard the officers give orders for tho cavalry to go down in St. Mary's county that the assassins were there. That was my chance, and 1 made good time to where Booth and Herold were concealed. Booth was glad to know that his time'to get into Virginia had come. "The night was dark, and Herold and I lifted Boot on to my horse. Our progress was slow. We finally reached my house, and 1 went in to get them something to eat. Wo then proceeded to tho river. Booth was lifted into the boat and was placed in the stern, while Herold took the oars. I then lighted a candle and showed Booth by his compass how to steer to got into Maehodoe. creek and gave him directions to Mrs. (.Juesenlierry's, who, 1 thought, would take care of him. That was tho last I saw of

Booth. "When notices were posted up that to furnish bread or water to Booth meant death," went on Jones, "I felt pretty shaky. I knew That Booth had hit the Virginia shore. as arrested and tak'-n to Washington, where I was held ior seven weeks. Then was discharged because nobody believed 1 knew anything. "—Sew York World.

I "Trembling mountain." a massive I pile of peculiarly arranged rooks lying on Rogue river, almost directly north I of Montreal, was known to the Indians I by a eomhinat ion of words signifying "seat of the thunder god. "According to their tvae'tions the thunder god formerly used a broad and di cp indentation on its summit as a seat, and that therein he would sit, for three days in spring, seven in summer, live in autumn and two in winter. They also believed that during the time ho was present groat chasms would open i:i the side of the mountain, from which lire would stream for hours without ceasing. Nothing is known concerning the early history of the mountain, but it is thought that thu legend refers to old time volcanic action, an opinion sirengthoned by its geographical name of "Trembling mountain."—St. Louis ltrpublie.

MARRIED IN HASTE.

IVw Formalities lit 11 Wedding In a Clii--:Ki i'uliet Court. Quite an amusing episodo occurred in Justicu LyonV court recently in tho midst of a trial for assault and battery, when a young c. i:ple rushed breathlessly into the room and informed his honor that they wanted to he joined in tho holy bonds of wedlock as quickly as possible.

In one hand thu prospective groom carried a marriage license, which contained tho names of August Kohner and Mario Soss. Tho assault and battery trial cam- to a halt, and Justice Lyon glanced over tho certificate by which two beings were permit ted to call themselves ono. "Hurry oop. chudge." said the about to be bride, nervously as she shifted from ono foot to another and glanced apprehensively at tiiu door. "But why are you in such haste?" asked "Justice Davy." "It musr.be now or never," answered tho bride, "and wo want, now." "All right," said tho court "I guess lean accommodate you," and ho repaired to a mirror in the roar of thu courtroom, carefully arranged his $18 tie, thought of the immortal Davy, Jr., on the South Side, parted his hair in the middle, took an extra reef in his immaculate Prince Albert and called tho couple to tho front.

If there is ono thing Justice Lyon is perfect in, it is in tho art of tying nuptial knots, and ho was at his best. "Have you a ring?" ho asked. "Nein, answered the lesser half/",Vf "One will do," said the court. "Nein, uein, or none," broke in tho bride. "Oh, all right!" answered tho court, while his lace took on a deep scarlot hue, and he proceeded with the ceremony. The couple alternately looked at him and at thu door, and after it was all over, and they stood togethor with arms twisted together, a fearful racket Bounded on the stairs, and a little old man, with a glare in his eye, burst breathlessly into tho room. The new Mr. and Mrs. laughed at him, and swearing volubly in German tho little old man gave the door a cruel kick, passed out again, tho bridal couple following. Justice Davy poked a beautiful bill in his purse, and the assault case went on. —Chicago Dispatch.

What Ksau Hunted.

"About noon wo saw a beast standing on a mountain top looking down at us. When we ?aw it, we thought that it was a camel, but Calinus said that tho beast was a rhinoceros or unicorn. It hath a horn set in the midst of its forehead 4 feet long, and whatsoever it butts at it runs him through and pounds him against tho rocks. It is said by writors on natural history that they placo a young virgin in his way, whereat he puts away from him all his fierceness and lays down his head and is held thus entrancctd until he be taken and slain."

Thus wrote that delightfully naive observer, Father Felix Fabri, who visited Sinai -100 years ago. Modern pilgrims who have followed in his footsteps with their eyes open will at once recognize that the animal he saw was the bedan, or Sinaitic. ibex, which gazes down on passing caravans from the cliffs which tower above their route. Ho is seldom visible to them unless his shapely figure happeus to bo silhouetted on the sky line. This wild goat inhabits thu mountains on either side of the Red sea and the steep gullies of Moab and is the only representative of the deer or goat tribes in t.he.-: regions. Esau doubtless hunted it, and those few sportsmen who have followed his example will not be surprised that the uncertainties of tho chase cost him Ills birthright. Nineteenth Century.

THE STORY OF A CLIPPER.

tilie Sailed AJUO a Witch mtl Bngagwl til 1 re Trades Thau One. A young Swede came to this oountry in 38«ri 1 with some monoy and the intention of building a craft to befitted up for passengers to tho World's fair in London. For this purpose ho located bimsolf at Portsmouth, contracted with shipbuilders who had shipyards at Eliot, just opposite Portsmouth, for a ship of about 1,000 tons, with expensive cabin arrangements for passengers. The model of the ship was that of an extreme clipper.

When nearly completed, the projector fell short of money. Masts, spars anils sails'had all been contracted for and were in a state of forwardness. The mechanics concluded to complete the ship and put her in tho hands of Governor Goodwin of Portsmouth for sale, each contrat tor to take hjs pro rata of his contract.

Wlun completed, tho ship, under njer'hanii' lien, was transferred to the governor, brought to Boston, purchased" by S'amps-vi t*c Tappan, named the .Nightingale and under the command ot a Captain Dumaresque sailed for Australia with a cargo valued at $125,000.. From there she proceeded to China, where sho took the highest freight of tho season. A.'o per ton for London. To test her lueiits Messrs. Sampson & Tappan published in tiie London Times a challenge to rho British merchant Heel to race from tho Downs to China and back for £10,000—a distance of nearly 31,000 nil!

Tho selection of marble for a monument is altogether a matter of taste. Tho finest statuary marbles are found in Italy and irc-ece, but are very expensive, costing from $15 to $20 per cubic foot. In tho United States good statuary marblo has for several years been quarried at We.-t Rutland, Vt., whero a layer from three to four feet thick is interstratified with 40 or 50 feet of clouded marble. The finest of statuary marble is found at Pittsford, Vt., where there is a bod 20 feet thick, from which blocks have been taken capable of taking a very tine finish. This marble belt extends north and south- of Rutland county, through Vermont and Massachusetts, but in loses in quality in both directions.

Castoria is the best remedy for children of which

am acquainted. I hope tho day is not

far distant when mothers will consider the real interest of their children, and use Castoria instead of the variousquack nostrums which are destroying their loved ones, by forcing opium, morphine, soothing syrup and other hurtful agents down their throats, thereby sending them to premature graves."
