The words were spoken by a country squire in Tipperary county, Ireland, to Mike Doolan, one of his poorest tenants. "What would I go there for?" inquired Mike. "Why, man. don't ye know that In that counthry the gold pieces are rollln around Iverywhere?" Mike scratched his head.

"Well." he said presently, "if that's so I'll go. Lind me the money for the voyage and as soon as I get to Ameriky I'll pick up enough gold pieces rollin' around to slnd back the loan." The squire laughed. "Mike." he said more seriously, "all as smart a man as you needs Is a chance. I'll pay the passage of ye and Bridget and the kids, and ye needn't send it back at all." Mike accepted the offer and went to America. The squire heard nothing from him and had forgotten him when one morning while sitting at his desk writing he looked up and saw a man dressed in a fur coat and with a solitaire diamond stickpin in his scarf standing looking down on him.

"What can I do for you, sir?" asked the squire. "Nothing. Tou done it long ago." He pulled a wallet from his pocket. counted out a number of gold pieces and laid them on the desk. "What's that?" asked the squire.

"Didn't ye lind it to me to take me to Amerlky? And didn't ye tell me I'd find gold pieces rollin' around there? Well. I did. I kem back to return the loan." "You don't mean to say that you're Mike Doolan?" "I do." "And found gold pieces rolling around In America?" "1 did that same." "Tut Mike, ye're funnin'. Sit down and tell me bow yet got rich." Mike took a chair and told his story. "Ye remember, sor, that me trade was a mason.

Well, as ttoon as 1 got to Ameriky I got a job and went to work. I didn't see any gold pieces roll-In' around, but I thought me time for that hadn't come yet. I found a slian Their Trip to the Bottom and What Happens Afterward. What becomes of the ship that sinks in mldorean? If it Is or wood it takes, in the first place, considerable time for it to reach the bottom. In a hundred or more fathoms of water a quarter of an hour will elapse before the ship reaches bottom.

It sinks slowly, and when the bottom is reached It falls gently into the soft, oozy bed, with no crash or breaking. Of course if it is laden with pig Iron or corresponding substances or if it Is an iron ship it sinks rapidly and sometimes strike's the bottom with such force as to smash In pieces. Once sunken a ship becomes the prey of the countless Inhabitants of the ocean. They swarm over and through the great boat and make it their home. Besides this they cover every inch of the boat with a thick layer of lime.

This takes time, of course, and -when one generation dies another continues the work until finally the ship is so laden with heavy Incrustations, corals, sponges and barnacles that if wood the creaking timbers fall apart and slowly but surely are absorbed in the waste at the sea bottom. Iron vessels are demolished more quickly than those of wood, which may last for centuries. The only met als that withstand the chemical action of the waves are gold and platinum. and glass also seems una dot ted. No matter how long gold may be bidden in the ocean, it will always be gold when recovered, and this fact explains the many romantic and adventurous searches after bidden submarine treus ores lost in shipwrecks.

GEORGE R. SHELDON. Again Treasurer of Republican National Committee. Some Had Inner Stone Walls to Resist the Indian Raiders. In America the early colouists bad little use for the mason's art, except in the construction of the huge clilninej stacks which in any dwelling of con siderable size and any pretensions to comfort formed a very considerable part of the structure.

The great kitchen fireplace and oven, with smaller hearths In from two to four rooms od each floor, required a very considerable part of the material and skilled labor bestowed upon a colonial homestead in the more northern colonies. In some sections where the dangers of an attack by Indian raiders were Imminent, the wooden walls of the lower story inclosed a stout wall of brick or a kind of rubble masonry. Too Much for One.

Then he led to the roight, I still count-in' till he stopped, and turned me round and round and took me into a house and down into the cellar.

He showed me a little room about 6 by 9, with no door to it All there was in it was a coffin shaped box. Brick and morthar was handy, and the seedy man tould me to wall up the openln'. I done it and put one o' the bricks the fifth from the floor on me left a little furder In than the rest, so I'd know it again. "When finished the seedy man blindfolded me again and took me around and, leaving me, says: 'Stand till ye hear a shot, then take off the bandage and ye'll find the pay for the Job at your feet' "When 1 bears the shot I took off the bandage, and there at me feet was me pay sbure enough.

The squire was right The coffin was full of 'em. "I hunted for the man that beaten me out of the pay for me Job and found that he was a miser. 1 concluded to take me pay out of the box and give him the rent when he come home.

I bought all the property roundabout, and they built a railroad through it, and I'm rich." The squire snt with eyes and mouth wide open till Mike bad finished, then burst into a laugh. "But suppose the miser returns?" he suggested. "What do I care? The gold I found in the coffin Is nothln' to what I made speculatln'. But I reckon he's dead, or be wouldn't leave his money so long Like enough he put it in there to begone on a journey, and I don't thluk he'll come back." And he never did. W.

Minuteness of an Atcm. Sir Oliver Lodge once gave a striking illustration of the minuteness of the atom. The amount of Kold in sea water, although very small, seems con sidcrable when stated in atoms, for a single drop of sea water contains fiO, atoms of gold. That ligure, however, indicates merely one-fiftieth of a grain In a ton of sea water, and It would take 100.000.000 atoms to be visible under a microscope of the high est power. A Bad Spill.

Som ervlllu Journal. 1 Vive Tart Little Aid. Washington, D. C. President jTaft's cabinet will not figure extensively in the campaign this fall, not-I withtstanding the report has gone I forth that the entire cabinet is to take the stump during October.

It has been customary in recent times for members of the cabinet to get out on the stump in presidential years, and particularly in years when a president has been renominated. Four years ago, when Mr. Taft was first nominated, and Roosevelt was president, every member of the cabinet went into the campaign, and by direction of the then president. But this year there will be a nuni- I ber of cabinet officers who will make no political speeches whatever, and some who will make very few speeches. And in all probability no member of the cabinet will make an extended stumping tour for the republican national ticket.

There are just four members of the present cabinet available for campaign duty, and upon whom tfm president might rely if he wanted campaign speakers Secretary Stim-son, Attorney General Wickersham. Secretary Wilson and Secretary Na-gel. These members of the cabinet will make speeches, but how extensively they will speak has not yet been announced. Star Laundry and French Dry Cleaning Company.
