A Story from the South that Sound

Coi i MiiiA, S.C., June 10. Great

pi ople of Kershaw over the linding
of $lG;i,CH.HI in gold and other valu
able treasure which were buried
in that vicinity twenty-four years
ago when Si e.'nion'H i rny was
passing through South Carolina,
the ollicers of the Ciii.dcu bank
collected the money and jewelry
and brought it near I landing K x k
reek, Kershaw county, to b.irv it
They were captured by Micrman's
men and forced to give up their
treasure. The hold it is in turn
appointed one c! their own num
ber named Rho les to bury it.
Among the treasure w as a gold
pitcher presents! by ti e ladies of
Charleston to Calhoun. On his
deathbed, a few days after, Rhodes
said he bad buried the money near
an old mill, a short distance from
the lno ilh of Han;'i- g ere' k,
and dictated a tit :-o i ; ! i . o l-tt.tr
fur Colonel Wiili.im 1.. Jj!;..s a.

twenty years various parties have
been digging for the buried treas
ure, but without success. I ast
Friday night, however, it was se
cured by a Mr. Rhodes, brother of
the man who buried it, and a Mr.
Swaggart, both Northern men.
The work of digging was done alto
gether in the night time. These
men were seen on Friday with a
halt-bushel satchel on a stick
across their shoulders. Several
citizens of Kershaw have seen the

Deluge of Water.
The Asotin Sentinel tells how a
cloud burst nearly submerged that
city. It says that was a general
surprise to the residents of Asotin,
as an entirely unexpected rush of
water came down the Madley
gulch, bringing debris of all kinds
and rolling stones of large size into
and over a portion of the town
site. Those living nearest the
gulch's mouth were the worst
sutferers as tln-ir place caught the
full force of the torren; and re
ceived the largest deposit of heavy
matter before the Hood began to
spread, which it soon did, cover
ing the gardens ami lawns of a
number of OJr people and rushing
through the streets until reaching
the creek and river banks. The
damage will amount to several
hundred dollars in gardens des
troyed, cellars Hooded and general
cleaning up to restore that portion
of the town to its former beauti ul
condition, and aWo to reopen the
irrigation ditch ami county road.
Nature could surely improve mat
ters somewhat by a more general
distribution of her favors instead
of being partial to certain places.
But a lesson has leen learned and
some engineering must be done
to provide against a recurrance of
another such disaster. A channel
sufficiently laige to carry off such
Hoot Is could be prepared at an ex
pense within the means of the
town and it should be done at the
earliest possible time. j
