In England when hidden treasure is tfound the law requires the coruner to liold an inquest over it. Formerly it was a coroner's duly to hold an inquest in case of a burglary. A statute of Edward 1. decrees that '•when coroners are commanded by the king's •bailiffs or by the hones' men of the county they shall go to the places wHtTe any be slain or suddenly dead or wounded or where houses are broken or where treasure is said to be found and shall forthwith command four of the next towns, or five, or six, *o appear before him in such a place."

Horrible Hi'roiscn.

One of the Resolution's gunners was standing by his gun as the ship sheered abreast of Grasse's flagship. The gunner was all ready, just going to tire, when a shot came in at the port and took his leg off at the knee. As quick as thought, the man pulled off his neckcloth anil tied bis leg above the stump. The next instant he seized his shot off limb and thrust if into the muzzle of the gun, which went off two seconds later. "My foot." shouted the man exultantly, "is the first to board the Ville de Paris."— Frasier's "Famous Fighters."

Pianos.

To those intending the purchase of a piano, I desire to say that I am located in the Arcade building on West Main street opposite the old Masonic Hall, with a nice line of high ^rade pianos at prices that are ri^ht.

In tiie last live years I have been connected with lour of the kindest retail' piano houses in the United Staets,

W. J.

Dyer&Bro., of St. Paul, Minn., the largest music house in the Northwest O. K. Houck & Co., of Memphis, Tenn., decidedly the strongest house of its kind in the South. Last year I was in the employ of the StanPiano Co., of Indianapolis, and up till the 18tli of July, 11)05, I was with Carlin & Lennox of the same city, and I have handled in that time all of the leading" makes of pianos, and a large number of other good pianos, the names of which are known only to a few. I have been selling* pianos almost continuously for 18 years, acid while I don't claim to know all about a piano, I naturally have learned something- in that time and I can say with all sincerity that there is no piano on the market for anything near the money that equals the Price & Teeple. I handle this piano exclusively, buy it direct from the factory, and can and do sell it for less money than any Indianapolis house can sell the same grade of goods. I buy them as cheap as anybody on earth can buy them aud my expenses are comparatively nothing. I have no one to divide protits with, consequently I can get alon.if with a very small margin.
