A. ffyjnfl )I& D roportors wor lwrVJ 4 nrs c'vo to the JyllltiilLlL-N ww Pu" Information of IPlVraW'OlEyl o discovery of a do ?KvJ0l falcation by Henry rwffllVr Martin Jackson, pay- lC1 V ng-tellor in tho Uni r?rV d States Sub-Troos-jfcjg. ury- t0 defalcation MSSCjAv occurred on Saturday WjgiX 9 'BSti nd was not dis j&TjffitjyJ A covered till Monday nJST fwLffl)3rmp morning, whon the yEk failure of Jackson to tsS" appear nt bis post of A& vw-""ii u'y nrousd susplc- syrf! ion, and an investiga tion of bis cash showed the loss of exactly $10,000. Sub-Treasury Petective Sampson was immediately apprised at tho fact, tbo mattor being kept a secrot from everybody olso. Detectivo Sampson worked diligently on tho cose, and last night it was ascertained beyond doubt that tho defaulter was in Tor onto, Canada. This is the first loss by defalcation since tho administration of Sub-Treasurer Ilill bouso. During his term a stamp agont, who had a desk in tho Sub-Treasury building, slolo 185,000. Tho only wonder is that JaokBon did not carry away a groater sum than he did, for Mr. Cauda states that tho paying-teller handles each day sums ranging from $1,000,000 to 3,000,000 and has paid out over $9,000,000 in a single day. Tho paying-toller has not access to tho vaults, but necessarily handles enor mous amounts, and no way has ovur yet been devised for tho perfect protection of banking and other institutions against tho speculations of a dishonest paying teller. Jackson Is about thirty-six years of age. He is a son of tbo Secrotary of tno Now York Traot Society, who livos in Bosevillo, N. J. Ho has beon twico married, and has a, daughter by each wife. His prosent wifo is a daughter of a Mr. Lasollo, of Mount Vornon; Westchester County. His family relations havo not beon agroeablo of Into, and two weeks ago Mrs. Jackson ro turnod to her father's homo. It is bolievod that this domostio troublo was tho cause of Jackson's flight, for ho took tho monoy in ono lump. Jnokson was appointed to a clerkship in Fobruary, 1879, by'Bub.Trcusuror Thomas O. Acton, on the rocommondation of a hust-of. New York's most substantial men. Ho had been employed in tho National Currency Hank and in other financial institutions. Ho had been faithful, and promotion had followed promotion, till ho was mado paying-toller, with a salary of $3,000 per annum. Ho is a IlopubUcan, but had boen retained through the Oloveland Administration. He possessed excellent qualities for tho position, uoing self-possessed and capablo. The money taken by Jackson was from tho "paying-toller's cash," and ho hud no access to the vaults, tho rules in this respect having beon made mora stringent than ever beforo on tho advent of Bub-Treasurer Canda. Tho paying-teller's cash was examined frequently, and Jackson's cash was critically counted on tho 13th inst., as is ous tomary, and again an tho 17th tho cashier counted tho monoy in Mr. Jackson's drawer, as tho latter was dotaiued at homo by ill ness. It was correct at that time. All tho indications aro that tho $10,000 was ab stracted on Saturday, tho dav of the depar ture of Jnokson for Canada. Tbo discovery of tho robbery was mado boforo business began on Monday morning. Mr. Canda and Detectivo Sampson declined to say whether any steps had been takon for tho approhension of Jackson, but Mr. Canda remarked that he would be very glad if some ono could devise a way of obtaining his ro turn from Canada, adding "Of course I am personally responsible for each of my clerks." Sub-Treasuror Canda is accountable under the law for tho defalcation of any of his em ployees, and ho is under a $100,000 bond, which is signed by C. P. Huntington, John I. Blair, William L. Scott. Edward Cooper, Tose" P. do Navarro, James T. Wood pard, J. H. Abeol. Charles Butler, H. V. Sowcomband John II. Dos 1'nssos. Thr& reutlemcn aro all well-known business men. they justified In $800,000, and tho bond was ipproved on Jan. 23 last. James T. Woodward, who is President of the Hanover National Bank, said this morn ing i Wo shall not bother ourselves about the matter. Indoed, $10,000 is a more bagatelle to tho vast sums handled nt tho Sub Treasury. Mr. Canda is amply able to make good tho amount lost, and we will not be called upon. t Mr. Canda has been extensively interested in the iron business, and is well to do. Ho is an old, substantial business man, who has hold many responsible positions of trust in businoss life." Do yon think Mr. Canda can bo in any manner blamed for the robbery?" aBkedthe reporter. "How can he? No law can prevent one man from robbing another. It may only pun ish for offenses already committed." The defaulter is described as of swarthy f complexion; short and vory stout in staturo, and wearing a full block beard trimmed close. His chin is a peculiar one, receding I considerably, and he is knock-kneed. He wore whon last seen a dark suit and a bean-Back ovorcoat. Ho is an invet erate smoker and of lato tho employoos at tho Sub-Treasury say ho has looked ill and as if he had been drinking hard. An Evenino Would roporter found Jack son's father at the ofllco of tho Tract Society. He is a tall, well-preserved man of about sixty, bis close-trimmed beard showing more white than black, and he has a mild eye and manner. Is tho statement in regard to yonr son corroct asked the reporter. What statement inquired Mr. Jackson. This in the momliig paper," said tho reporter, showing him the acoount in The WOBIJ). Mr, Jackson read it and returned the paper, I saying! I havo really nothing to My. This is the first I have heard of it." 'Did your son havo any extravagant tastes?" i "No, not that I know of." Were his relations with yon friendly V Yes. He used to coma to see mo about once a month. His lost visit was about a ortnicht ago." P, ue B0em depressed at all then No." Did be allude to tho strained feelings be tween himself and his wife No ii I knew of it. But I supposed It was en of those things that heppea fea.uatly ftfnf aft flfM'i irtlilMtft"aiaaftfaf-Tltl fifci111 enough between husband and wifo, and that it was only a passing estrangement.'' For somo timo prior to tholr separation Jackson and his wife had been living in tho La Tourotti House, Bergen Point. Inspeotor Byrnes lias boen asked to help the United States officers to traco Jackson. It is tho gonoral impression at Polico Head quarters that an indictment will bo found against Jackson at oncd, and that inasmuch as it is tho United States Treasury which has boon robbod, Canada may not provo a safo refugo for him. AtLa Tourctte Houso, in Bergen Point, Jackson has been well known. About ten years ago, Bhortly after ho buried his first wifo, ho was introduced to Mr. James Bowman, tho proprietor, and Bpent tho entire summer there. After that ho mado frequent callsj both alone and with companions and, whilo not extravagant or boisterous, gavo evidonco of being ono of the boys." Last June, accompanlod by his second wife and thoir soven-year-old daughter Allco, he engaged apartments for the summer. Ii was current talk that Jackson's domestic lifo was anything but happy. Two months ago, or thereabouts, Jackson joined the Staten Island Athletic Club and spent a Sood doal of his timo at the clubhonso with L. Wattenberg, of lOt Broad streot, who was also a guost at La Tourctte. His habits, until within a month wore regular. A week ago last Saturday ho loft Borgen Point, purchasing a tioket for New York. Ho settled ills hotel bill at tho samo timo, but took with him in leaving noth ing but a Email hand-bag. His wife and daughter wero left behind. Then rumors of divorce proceedings wore heard, and it is claimed that tho wifo told guosts that sho intended to bring suit ogaiuBt her husband, ono of tho grounds being desertion. Tho Friday following Jackson's departure his wifo left, going to nor father'B houso in Mount Vernon. On Tuesday a detectivo claiming to have beon sent from Inspector Byrnes's office, called at tho hotel and mado inquiries about Jackson. He said ho was making investi gations on behalf of Jackson's family, who feared ho had met with foul play, as ho had not been Been or heard from for a week.

(a Clair, ttlltr to JltUauif fiffnl. Frederick Woyerhcuser, as the head of ono of the most Important commercial corporations on the continent, has long occupied in a large degreu the attention of tho business world. Tho man Is a phenomenon of achievement. He baa mado him self what hols, and be has made for himself the tides which other men wait for to carry thorn to success. Physically and mentally, he was moulded by na ture for business conquests. Three decades ago piling slabs for a dollar per diem at Rock Island-to-day controlling tho largest lumber interests In world; such IB the epitome of his llfe.and between the Hues it Is easy to seo what manner of mauls "the Bismarck of tho Northwest. Born In lTimsla about fifty-four years ngo, he camo to this country while yet In early manhood, nnd his adventurous spirit carried him us far west as Illinois. Ho was alono nnd without a dollar, but, Btartlng as a common laborer, ho savod his earnings and watched his opportunities. He startedln tbo lumber business In ltock Island with Mr. Deuckmann, who Is still his partner, and who Is hlB brother-in-law, and tho linn hnd n capital of less than $l,uou. He steadily extended the busi ness and soon laid the foundation for his future success. The rapid growth of that section of tho country, In tho years succeeding bis location there, and the sudden expansion of every avenuo of com mercial enterprise, were tho opportunities which ho made to bear such golden fruits'-:- Somo Idea of the extent of bis Interests may bo obtained from tho fact that ho Is President of tho Mississippi River Logging Company, of tho Chlp pewn Miinbcr and Boom Company, of the Rock Island Lumber Company, of the Ohlppcwn Logging Company and of tho Beef Slough Boom Company, and u leading member of the Shell LaVe Lumber Company, of the Barrouctte Lumber Company, of tho North Wisconsin Lumber Company, of tho White Kher Lumber Company, and of the Cloquet Lumber Company, and is associated In the per sonal owncrshirof many thousand acres of plno lauds In Michigan, Wisconsin and Minnesota. It should be borne hi mind that tho MUslsslppI Log ging Company, one of the leviathans of tho lumber business In this section, mono embraces concerns In Minnesota, Iowa, Illinois and Wisconsin, whoso aggregate capital fs about ITO,000,000 and which cut 1,000,000 feet of lumber a year. Ho Is said to be heavily Interested In the Burlington road and Is the owner of the Palms mlno on tho Clogcblu range. His Individual wealth nobody knows, but the corpornto capital which he con trols Is probably not extravagantly stated at f 100. 000,000. It will thus be Been what a bagatelle It was to Frederick Weyorhncuser to buy the Kan Claire plant and plno lands of the Eau Clalra Lum ber Company the second largest lumber concern In America In point of production and that It would not break him to buy the largest In lum ber production the Knapp, Stout CO. Com pany. Common agreement among his associates places him at the forefront of all tno lumber cor porations In which he Is Interested. They hae tho utmost faith In his experience and abilities, and his word Is law. They bcllciethat no other man In America knovt s bo much about plno as ho docs. Mr. Weyerhaenscr, as all men of his tempera ment and habits are at his age, Is still in the prime of life. Of medium height and broad and robust frame, he la active In his moementa and fluent In his conversation, which Is marked by a slight Ger man accent nnd the misplacement sometimes of those two troublesome consonants t and d. He wears a rather cloudy-trimmed beard of Iron ?ray. In dress ho Is plain and unostentatious, lock Island has nlvrujs been his home and he lives In a handsome residence there. Ills family con sists of sq o ral sons mill daughters, his sons being In business and showing bright aptitude for busi ness life. Mr. Weyerhaeuser Is said to have al ways been quite abstemious In his habits, using beer and wines In moderation and using no to bacco. Ills wines are made from Ihe product of his own vineyards. With a fair education acquired as a young man, he possesses much taste for liter ary, sclcntlllo and historical reading. Ho has often said that of all historical figures he most ad mires Martin Luther and Paul the Apostle. While building his own fortunes. Mr. Weycr hscuscr has aided many a man with moral and financial backing, and in selecting employees for Important positions has always ploVcd merit from the ranks without regard to adventitious circum stances. Hhe Is Klssnble Now. IFrotn a JV.to York Lttttr. I went with a girl friend jenterday to sco her beautified. Tho place was no factory of hair colorings or complexion-washes, but the highly professional New York Hospital, ono of our great public benefactions, au(J,tho bcautlflcr was staid and orthodox Dr. Bull. The maiden was already pretty, save that sho had tho dlstlguruturo known as harelip. The Improvement will make her en tirely klasable. Too few parents arc n tiling, through false kindness to their children or through Ignorance, to snbmlt their little ones to the knifo of tbo Burgeon at an early age; and as a result we have around us unsightly persons who might have harihelr features moulded Into those of good-looking men and women. The case la point was that of a girl of about seventeen, who had a single hare lip, with protrusion of the teeth of the upper law. There was also a cleft In that Jaw which, of course, complicated the deformity. Had the operation been performed In lnfanoy the chances are that the wo man would havo shown very slight, If any traces of the surgeon's work; but aa It Is, a more or less plain scar will always be visible. Bbe was put under ether, and a small slice cut off one side of the fis sure In the lip, and a slice off the other side, near ly, but not quite to the bottom of the lip. Then these two raw edges were brought together and stitched, and the piece of flesh that remained from the second Incision was carried along the base of the Up, so that no Indentation should be after wards observed. Tho surgeon's plastic hand now went to work to fashion the disfigured member Into one that shonld serve her well tor the remain der of her days. This then completed the Up, and therewere left only the protmdlng teeth to rem edy. With two or three sharp blows of the mallet upon the chisel the top parts of the two aides of tho Jaw were separated, brought Into apposition by depressing tnein, and secured In place. Then tho operation waa ended; and it showed Immediate signs of great and lasting Improvement In appear ance one which cannot fall to be of vaat benefit to her as a woman. She has never voluntarily smiled since ahe was old enough to know of her disfiguration, so fearful was ahe of displaying It, A month hence she can begin a lite of smiles. TWO SISTERS DISAGREE. The Hplnstrr Arrested) on n Charge of In sanity Made by the Widow. Julia Lyons, who is a spinster, forty-flvo years old and somewhat luflrni, has boon liv ing with her wldowod sinter, Elizabeth Itowol, at 313 Wost Thirty-sixth streot for tho past two ycurs. Of lato the sisters havo not got along togothor very well. Yesterday afternoon Julia drcssod horsclf in bor best clothes and openod tho window. This proceeding voxod Elizabeth, who, after a strugglo, put hor sister out of tho room. Julia walked about tho streets all tho even ing. As sho was walking on Eighth avenuo, near Thirty-fourth street, at 13.10 this morn ing alio was mot by her sister Eliraboth, who declared her insane. Calling Policeman Sownoy, airs. Itowol told him to arrest Julia, remarking: "Sho is crazy. I, her sister, niako tho obarge." This charge frightoned Julia who had rend about tho treatmont to which inmates of tho luuatio asyluui aro subjected, and sho pro tested, saying j I am not crazy, and I don't want tho health lift." Tho policeman hesitatod about taking Jnlia into enstody, but as tho sister inBistod upon pressing tho complaint of Insanity ho lod tier to tho statlon-houso. Julia cried bitterly, fearing sho would bo sent to tho lunatic asylum. She wants to got rid of mo to get possess ion of my little property," sho said. As Mrs. Itowol did not appoar in Joffcrson Market Court this morning to press tho chargo, nnd as no sign of insanity could bo observed Julia was discharged. FOUGHT WITH KNIFE AND CLUB. Two Colored Men Fight Desperately About an Octoroon. Two colored mon, with their faces more or loss battered out of shapo, wero arraigned at tho Joffcrson Market Court this morning. Thoy gavo thoir namos as Samuol Cisco and Joseph Smith, both living in tho somo houso. It appeared that thoy had a duel about tho Bamo girl, an ootoroon named Miami, to whom thoy had both boon uaying attentions unknown to each other. Cisco was employod in tho nlght-tltno as a waiter, whilo Smith w as a porter Inn storo. Cisco did his court ing in the daytime, while Smith dovotod his evenings to Miami, taking hor to tho theatre and to colored balls. Last night Cisco did notgo to his night du ties as usual. Ho met Smith In company with Miami. A mutual surprise and a crowl from tho two men followed. Lator that evening both mon pre pared themselves for a combat. Cisco armed himself with a club, whilo Smith trusted to tho sharp edgo of a knlfo. With nut a word of warning the men rushod at each other and fought as best they could. They wore blooding profusely when Police man Itolgl and another officer came up and used their clubs to separate the two men, Justice Gorman gave them throo months each. Tips Prom the Ermine World's Ticker. Another strong opening this morning, accom panied with pronounced ball "operations. Tho Btreet receives word to-day that the national bank depositories now have on deposit $J,0S2,M Government funds. The sale of the Toxos division of the Texas Pa cific Railroad has been set down for Nov. 8 and that of the New Orleans division for the loth. bt. Paul Is reported this morning as scheduled for bull manipulation, by the Standard OU Com- Eany interest. It Is rumored that tho stock Is to o hoisted to TS on this lift. Tho almost forgotten litigation between the Cen tral Transportation Company and the lnillmau Pal noc Car Company comes up to-day In tbo Unltod States Circuit Court at Philadelphia. Thcro Is a rumor on the street to-day that the Missouri, Kansas and Texas Railroad Is In financial dltllculty and that a reedier Is about to bo applied for. No confirmation of tho report has been re ceived aa yet. A prominent broker on 'Change, who is popularly regarded as an authority on New England affairs, says to-day that old plans, discussed over a year ago, are up again, and that tho New York, New Haven and Hartford, as well as the Manhattan Elevutcd Interest, are figuring to secure control at tbo coming election. A despatch to-day says tnat "Chairman Abbot called on tho general managers of tho various roads and submitted a revised agreement, which was Dually accepted by all tno lines except Wabash. The now agreement Is stronger than tho old ono and gives the arbitrators lncroascd power to better enforce tho maintenance of agreed rates and regulations." The Btreet Is completely mystified by tho an nouncement of Northwest's Increase of tlOT.000 In earnings for September. Two days ago long odds were laid on a large decrease, with no takers. There Is a rumor on 'Change this morning that Boino change between the actual and estimated earnings last year had something to do with the comparative statement. Au Insider In Krlo and Western BayB this morn ing of yesterday's secrot meeting of the road di rectors, that It was decided to change the fiscal year to correspond with tho calendar year, and to pay do dividend at present. It wus decided, how ever, to begin quartirly dividend payments at the rule of 4 per cent, per annum at tho end of the first quarter of the new fiscal year. The election of J. II. Flagler to tho presidency of tho Cotton Oil Trust, coupled with tho announce ment that tho Standard Oil Company Is In full con trol, as will be seen by the changes In thu Board of Directors to be mado known to-morrow, bos been used as a bull argument to-day, resulting In a two point rise, or cloven points higher than last month. Insiders aro doing the buying. A prominent ball firm to-day assures lis patrons thut the back of tho bear-raid has been broken, and that tho market, although narrow, contains positive assurances of better Units. ''Tho In crease of Northwest's earnings, while It has tjeen a staggering blow to the bears, will convlnco the public," they say, that the Granger situation has been misrepresented, und Is by no means as bad as they huvu boen led to believe." In reference to Jay Gould's proposed European Jaunt, Henry Clews says this morning that the I principal backing which the bears havo recently lad has been the w idcly circulated Impression that Jav Gould waa In full sympathy with tho earnest workers on the wrecking side of the mar ket. They claim that while he was talking "bull" he was really a bear, trath In spirit and action. When Mr. Gould takes bis departuro to foreign waters an Important influence will be re moved from the bear side, und tho market will be come tnoro natural. Why lie Wns Absent.

Tho order of the Fire Commissioners directing that a new exit be made in the Bijou Theatre and that a fire-escape with iron balconies be placed on tho outer wall of Checkering Hall, with doors' opening upon It, is a precaution that will be appreciated by the public.

Are there no other places of publio resort that need the attention of tho Board OLD HAIDB AHD MOTHEEB-K-LAW. Several topics, not announced in tho pro grammes, might advantageously be discussed by the organizations of women in session in this city. Thero is the much-abused mother-in-law. Why will not some one champion her cause The most amiable of women become mothers-in-law, and certainly do not change their nature because of that rolatlon. If young couples would adopt the sensible plan of forming independent homes, however hum. ble, thero would probably bo very little trouble on that score. But, under any cir cumstances, there is no basis for one-tenth of tho cheap wit about the mothers of our wives. Turn a little light on tho conduct of the sons. in-law, for a change. Then there are the old maids, tho best abused members of the community. They fill a unique place of usefulness. And lots of ;them, are handsome, too. We could not got on without them. Many a man is ready to give three hurrahs for the old maids. Tnx Would of this morning contained in its first edition a full account of the defalca tion and flight of Cashier Jackson, of the Sab-Treasury in this city. The Am in its first edition had no hint of this most notable local news of the day.

There is always grain in the rear of Tnx Wobld'b harvester. The London society journals relate with great gravity and expressions of sincere re gret the fact that Prince Edwabd of Wales while recently staying with his grandmother at Balmoral had the misfortune to sit down on a wasps' nest. The kilt formed an insuf ficient protection against the stings of the infuriated insects, and the future King of Great Britain was in consequence confined to his bed for the space of three days. Wasps are no respecters of persons. The Citizens' mass meeting in favor of Nicou, and Masttnb at Cooper Institute to morrow night will be one of the most significant local political gatherings ever held in this city. The high character of the signers of tho call bespeaks its impor tance. There will be no uncertain sound and no lack of emphasis in this demand of the people for good government and tho punish ment of crime. While Jay, Gould goes abroad to got fat," the lambs that he has sheared and the geese that he has plucked will have a chance to grow a new crop of wool and feathers.

Fellows has been induced to dofer prosecution and has allowed tbo criminal to o free on giving a bond, but Central Office etectives know a case whero a well-known felon was allowed by Col. Fellows to give a flimsy bond for an Insignificant amount after conviction and sentence. The story has been investigated and verified in overy particular by a reporter of Tnx Etxnino Wobld and is as follows; Some five years ago thero flourished in this city a set of well-known check forgers and raisers who wont by tho name of The By. land Gang." The gang consisted of Edward 0. Rvlanu, known among the fraternity as "Clever Nod;" his wife Elsie, his brother James and his brother-in-law William Woodman. Their lino of business was to obtain checks for small amounts from respectable tradesmen and either raise the amount or force a number of checks in tho same namo. Woodman was an expert en graver and could produce a fao simile of the checks used by any bank in tho city. Tho woman Elsie Ilyland was the most vol uablo member of the gang. Sho was young and pretty, very well educated and of engag. ing and even fascinating address. Sho could play to perfection the part of a young widow and on a number of pretexts whoodlo trades men into giving her small checks on their banks in oxchango for cash. She soon became known to Inspector Byrnes and his men, but twice escaped con viction because it could not not be proved that she was a party to tho raising of the checks. In January, 1832, she entered the grocery store of Demurest Duncan, No. 1B25 Third avenue, and said sho wanted to send 96 to her mother in'Fbiladelphla. Tho Post-Offlce was closed and she could not get 'an order, so she wantod DemareRt fc Duncan to oblige her with a check, payablo to the order of Georglana Mace. Havingobtained it, sho tripped away smilingly. This check sho gavo to her husbanu who erased tho name and tho amount with' acid and made it call for tho paymont of $165.60 to Georgiana Martin. The woman took this to tho North Iliyor Bank, received the money, kopt $74 and divided tho remain dor between hor confederates. Sho escaped arrest for soveral weeks, but was finally arrested, together with tho other members of tho gang, by Dotectlrcs Blevln and Phil Itcilly, of tho Central Office. The gang had plenty of monoy for counsel fees, and retained Peter Mitchell, James F. Pendleton and Frank Oliver for the defense. In spite of their efforts all tho prisoners were convicted on May 18 of tho same year. EIbIo was sentenced by Recorder Smyth, Juno 10, to two years and six months in the pcnlten. tlary. The othors were sentenced to longer terms in Sing Sing. Elsie Byland appealod to the General Term on tho ground that she was under ooeroion by her husband, but tho General Term promptly sustained tho verdict and sentence of tho Court of General Sessions. On Aug. 11, 1882, after the conviction, the sentence, and tho doclslon of tho General Term, John B. Fellows. Assistant District Attorney, walked quietly with Elsie's counsel. Lawyer Peter Mitchell, into tho Supreme Court Chambers bofore Judge Charles Donohuo. Lawyer Mitchell produced a petition citing that Elsie Byland, convicted of forgery and scntenoed to two vesrsand six months' imprisonment in tho Court of General Sessions, had appealed to tho Court of Appeals and asked to do released on ball Bending the decision of tho highest court in io State. Col. John B. Fellows, Assistant District Attorney, stood at his friend Mitchell's sido and gavo his assent to this extraordinary proceeding. Col. JVHotei, on bthatf of the FtopU of the Male oKrus York,fixtd the amount of a euita ble ana sufficient bond tn the caie of thU con. victrd member of a gang of forger t at 8100. The bond was furnished by John Early, of 221 Elizabeth Btroot, and the signaturo ,1. It. Fellows, Assistant District-Attorney, appears on the back of that bond as consent, ing thereto. As soon as Elsie was set free bv this pro. ceodlncr she skipped out of tho State. and when, in March, 1883, tho Court of Appeals finally confirmed her convic tion sno could pot bo found. The bond of ffllOO was duly forfeited, tint tne detectives looked for the woman in vain. For many long montlis sho escaped justico, but on June 10, 1884, she was caught trying to pass a forged check and is now in tho penitentiary. Col. Fellows gave her the best chance he could to get clean off to Canada, and It was not any fault of his that sho was recaptured. m m Only Twenty Dnya Apart. Van IA. JlTatJ, Oct. 37.)

Why npnbllcan Btlllleaalree and Their Ileelera Exerted Tbemeelvee to Get Illaa on the (Superior Conrt Bench Johnny O'Brien Blonds Spanaor fair Ilia Beneficial Partlaanahlp Ranaera aa a Receiver. EARLY every day f iaei inquiries are sont to m I Tux Wobld for in- E& J II formation about Bos- Yl tus S. Ransom, tho aali Domocratio nominee JaiV jtI for Surrogate. Men sW'TiBvl sT uo ln" n nn( iff NV JTM ouout Wall street have 5IL V $E heard more or less ijfi&sassiw about him for five years, but the thousands of Democratic voters who will read his name on their tickets election day know nothing whatever of his record. Public curiosity has been intensified by despatches published in Tnx Wobld from rural regions whero Mr. Ransom onco lived, expressing surprise at hearing of a one. timo rabid Republican posing as a Demo cratic nomineo. Rastns S. Ransom was an obsenro man in this city until some f rionds on the street got him tbo Receivership of the Open Board of Stock Brokers In 1882. The affairs of this unfortunate concern wore so badly compli cated that the law firm of Ransom Knevals was called in to straighten matters out. There was some difficulty between the Build ing Association of tho Board and tho Board itself. When Ransom took hold of affairs about 820.000 was turned over to him from tho Building Association, and for threo years ho handled an annual rental of $12,000 from tho building. The settlement of affairs dragged along until 1885, when it woe consid ered advisablo to change the receiver. Ran som withdrew and J. K. O. Sherwood was substituted for him. MOT MUCH FOB THE DROXERS. Of the thousands of dollars that had passed through Ransom's hands as receivor, he turned over to his successor something liko $126. All the rest had been swallowed up In counsel fees and current expenses." The brokers raised a howl about it and openly accused Ransom of duplicity and collusion with an auctioneer to sell the building of the Board, No. 42 Broad street, on his own responsibility and make conditions which would be of advantairo only to himself. Particular objections wero raised to tho enormous sums of money Ransom had paid out in counsel fees to Sidnoy S. Harris, a warm friend of his. A batch of law suits sprang out of the new complications, and one of tho referees selected in adjudicat ing them was Honry S. Howland, now candi date for Supreme Court Judge on tho Repub lican ticket. COUNTX DKMOCBATS BXJXCTXD HIM. Newspaper notoriety obtained through theso operations brought Ransom's namo promi nently before the public. About that time somo powerful though not apparent influences were pressing him upon tho County Demo crats as nominee for tho Superior Court bonch to succeed Judge Sedgwick. The in dignant members of the Open Board of Brokers mado a strong protest and the County Democrats, after looking into Ran som'B record, refused to take him up, Then hiB friends mado an assault on Tammany and carried their point. Rastus S. Ransom was put up as Tammany nominee for Judgo of tho Superior Court. Every effort was mado to get the Republi cans to indorse Ransom's nomination. It was particularly urged that Ransom had worked tooth and nail for rthe Republican National ticket in 1B80, and that in 1884 ho kept dis creetly quiet. Singularly enough. Johnny O'Brien and other powerful allies of Jay Gould wero most conspicuous in urging this indorsement on the Republican oreanization. But It was refused. The Republicans stood by Judge Sedgwick. Then Gould and his f rionds begun tactics which at once exposed their hands. They openly canvassed for Ransom on Wall street and In the business exchanges. The angry members of the Open Board of Brokers opposed them at every step. Cyrus W. Field joined hands with Gould In pushing Ransom. Brokers were personally solicited to vote for him and brokers' olerks were given to understand that it was fortholr Interest to glte the Tammany candidate their cordial support, even if they voted for every other roan on the Republican tioket. Both Gould and Field personally peddled Ransom tickets. Elevated road employees were forcibly informed that Ransom was n man for them to oonsider. Tho result of all this effort cut down Judge Sedgwick's vote enormously, but he triumphed, and Rastus 8. Ransom retired for a whilo from publio view. Will GOULD WANTED A JUDGE. Rastus S. Ransom was a useful man to Jay Gould. As a Judgo of the Superior Court hisusofulness would have been boundless. At tho timo ho was a candidate thero vt ere 107 cases on tho Superior Court calendar in which Gould and Field had an in terest. They consisted mainly of actions for damages against the ele. vated railroads, and the claims aggregated millions of dollars. They had boon post poned again and again until further delay v as nlmoRt impossible. Trial was inevitable, and Gould wanted a judge of his choice on the bench. He selected Rastus S. Ransom, who had rendered him signal servico as coun sel for the receivers of tho Manhattan Ele vated Railroad In the notorious proceedings bofore Judgo WeBtbrook. This, briefly, is Rastus S. Ransom's career In Now York city. Are the men who wero behind him in 1885 behind him now? FORSTER A TURNCOAT TOO. Tammany Aaka Democrats to Yote for a Stan Who Waa n Hitter Enemy. "I would rather tote for Democrats on a Republican ticket," said a young Democrat to-day, "than to vote for Republicans on a Democratic ticket. For Instance, there Is Georgo H. Forster and Rastus S. Ransom, who were stalwart Republicans up to a few years ago. Now they call themselves Demo crats and are on the combine ticket." George H. Forster wasior years one of the leaders of the Republican party In Westches ter County. He was known throughout the county as a bitter and partisan Republican. He represented tho Westchester-Rockland District in the Senate of 1880-1881 and always voted with his party on party measures. He opposed all just and equitable excise laws, and on political questions never failed to take part in the de bates against tho Democratio party. Ho was a bitter partisan,. He was converted a few years ago and was admitted into Tammany Hall. He was nominated in 1884 for District Attorney and was defeated by Mr. Martlne.

Much fault is found t5?t3i with tho negligence of lv f. -jJ the old organization, i which seoms to hare rotten Into its dotage. New rules 1 havo been passed, as, for instance, 1 tho ono requiring amateurs not to compntn at any but approved athletio games, and no no tices served either by mail or press. This renders all athletes who competed at tho Now York Athletio or Pastime Athletio clubs' ro t cent games liable to censuro. .Mr. James Sullivan says Tho last Saturday night's entertainment of tho Manhattan Athletic Club makes professionals of G. A. Whito f' tho head persecutor of 0. Carter A. P. Both, Al Fleischman and W. S. Halligan, as i they competed in a meeting with, if not not against, professionals, which is contrary to the old National Association rules. Tho Manhattans are still members of the old or ganization." Sullivan declares the. bout between Davis and McQill a professional contest pure and simple, and Halligan, Bays Sullivan, is now a rank professional, for he contended for a prize against Kenny, who fought Davis three times; once a battle of thirty odd rounds for about $25. That shows the kind of peoplo tho Manhattans are," went on the Pastime's President, to rope in amateurs like Halligan, who is a good quorter-miler, and make a professional of him when ho didn't oven know the rule. These ore the advocates of purity in ath. letios, and they show it by trumping up charges against Carter, after they couldn't get him into their ranks." Tho Now York Athletio Club ought to bo Bshamed to havo to look abroad for a cham pion crow. They havo tho largest muster roll in the country, and their list of members includes many good men and hundreds of strong young fellows, who have fine rowing stuff in them if it were only brought out. And as for training, there isn't a better coach in America than David Roach. When he stroked and coached tho old Daunt less six they won pretty nearly everything they started for. Now, with all this good material and tho means for developing it to tho utmost, why are not the New Yorks at the head of the champion ship in aquatics The answer is simple Tho men won't train hard. Not even prize-fighting' requires more faithful prepar ation than that demanded by a boat race. Let the N. Y. A. 0. pick out their best rowing material, uninfluenced by cliques or personal likes and dislikes, and give Davy Roach full swing to train' -them hard, and they'll be much nearer the top next year. i Tho Nassau Athletio Club will take posses sion of its new headquarters, No. 270 to 282 'Washington street, Brooklyn, next Tuesday. i tt.

This professional matinee is given by Mr. Itico, to accommodate tho perfesh." Tho enormous number of so-called professional peoplo who want to be deadheads at tho the atres has caused managers to consider tho ad visability of giving these matinees as a regu lar thing. They hold that it is better to fill the theatres with the profession at a matinee than to suffer tho annoyance of perpetual clamor for recognition at the gate. It is understood that it was Henry E. Dixey's intention to burlesque Irvine's ver sion of "Faust "at tho Bijou Opera-House one of these fino days, but It is now pretty certain that he will not be first in the field. Goorgo W.

Mr; Dickson, it is said, is about to retire from tho theatrical business, and within a few days will be connected with a well-known publish ing house.

Mr. Kelcoy's wonderfully fitting coat revealed the lissome manliness of his Bhapoly form, whilo tho blaok gloss of his silky hair was seen below his shining hat. Yet Mr. Kolooy was unhappy. His fingers strayed tromulously from time to time in tho diroction of his mouth, as though he weio seeking to removo any traces of emotion from that mobile feature.

Tho crowd of ladies surrounding it mado way for him. Ho stepped to tho glass, and gazed with fearful intensity within. At whom could he be looking Was it at Sarah Bernhardt, Mary Anderson, Idllian Urubb, Pauline Hall, or Mrs. Booth? It might have been. Mr. Kolcoy remained for fully fivo minutes beforo tho glass. His hand still played nervously with his lips: the expression on his face was ono of ardent admiration. Ho was tho cynosure of female eyes.

RIPPLES FROM THE HARLEM. Georgo Wies is a rattling single-scullor. He wears dark-blue and while. He Is proud becauso he looks like Beach. Olllo Stevens, the Union man of high de. gree, can "hold" any sculler on tho river. Being champion senior is no novelty to him. Hod Walters's long-range smile is missed nowadays on tho river. He has givon up his ctcw and the markot to go down tho Chesapeake for ducks. Alfredo Franoisco Camaoho, sometimes called "Comcashoro" for short, has tho sweetest volco on thn river. Ho can scull, row and steer as well as Davy Boaoh, and swim faster. Mel Hard has stroked more Now York crews than any other man In the olub. He is a young man still. It is sold that he chows fine cut when in training to help his wind. Ho is a giant in the stroke seat. Capt. Jack Canavan soys that he will havo four Nonpareil crews in the next regatta. He has mado up his mind to bring homo tho Sharploss Cup from Philadelphia next year. Thero is a neat niche waiting for it in tho club parlor. Billy Morse used to bo one of the New York's crack junior scullers. Lately ho has taken to wearing a charming pair of daintily checked trousers. Ho won't take them off whilo tho sun shines and thoy'ro too delicate to row in. A fine oarsman is thus spoiled. Arthur Mullen, of tho Nonpareils, has boon sick lately with a bad cold. He is mending rapidly. He says that ho is proud of only one thing that no did last summer. With a Sicilian mote, in a heavy pair-oared gig, ho beat a crack six-oared borgo from Collego Point to Harlem. Tom Fitzsimmons, the pride of the Unions, can't scull so fast as ho used to, becauso bo can't find time to practise. Nowadays ho is full of suro tips on who will win medals on the rivor. He says that he will havo an eight next year that will lam tho champion Daunt less orew. He said the samo thing last year. house In order, and I find that I have but xso.ooo that money has been earned by the books which bear my name but lest, thinking of me as you do, you should think even that money contaminated, let me tell you the one great sneret of my life. I am not a writer. Of alithe books which havo ap peared In my name, I have not written one they are the work of my cripple cousin, Kate. She shrank from tho notoriety they would bring her, I coveted It she had no wish to enter society, I had reasons for wishing to know great, people, and I consented to let the books appear in my name. They made me famous, and thai made her happier than ever the fame Itself would have done. But the money they brought In I said must be hers; at first sho would not have this, but after wards we made a compromise she took half, 1 tho other. The 30,000 1 leave Is my balf.ibare of her earnings, somewhat added to by judicious specu lation, but not, 1 give you my word of honor (.will you take It, I wonder), by any other means. "I have left this latter sum In equal parts be twoen my daughter, my cousin and my nephew; It is little enough. "Your son loves my daughter, and if you let him wed her he will have tho best wife In the world. It may be that you will not: In any case, spare those who are dear to me the knowledge ot what some say Max Selwyn was; it does little good to blacken the character of a dead roan. "Whatever my sins have been, I expiate them to-night. MAX SaXWYH." The Earl read tho letter through, growing paler and paler as ho real. The man did not ucknowlcdgo his guilt, but he did not deny it it was evident euough that he was guilty, and from the way he wrote it almost seemed that ho must be dead. Had hoinodoawoy with himself? Tho Earl rang the bell and desired tho servant to ask Lord Bruce to come to him then, pale and worried, he waited for his son, What is it, dad Bruce asked, entoring. I have something to tell you," ho said something that has upset me terribly, and that must upset you." Then, in as few words as possible, ho told bim Mr. Belwyn's story.. The color left Brace's faco ho felt sick at beart, It Is very dreadful," he said. May I seo tho letter Tho Earl handed it to him, and ho read it through slowly. He is guilty, of course," ho said, hopo lessly t this letter proves that, to my mind. Is he going to take his own life It reads like it," Uie Earl answered; "but I can scarcely believo it, Bruce, what about 1 Honor?" Tho young man grow paler still. I shall keep faithful to her, of course," ho sold, firmly "whatever her father I, Is no fault of hers, and his sins shall never be visited upon her. If I con help it, (ho shall never know."

Then it took about as much time and bother to load as a gun. Tho hau dlo of this old pistol was generally of block walnut or some hard dark wood with cuts crosswiso to glvo n better grasp. The handle was also made long so that it could bo hold tho more steadily. Tho old-stylo weapon was soino ten inches in length, about Si caltbro. and with a hair-triggor. It could not bo carried conveniently except in a belt. Tho best manufacturers of theso pistols wero a Dublin firm, McMullau Brothers. The firm no longer exists.. Thoy are not regularly manufactured in theso days of revolvors.

William Heed, a Boston dealer In firearms, has made a very good collection of arms. But tho finest collection in the country is said to bo that of Morosini, Jay Gould's old associate Ho has threo largo rooms filled with all kinds of antiquo firearms.

A horse ran away on Main street; so did John Simpson's wife. The horse left a buggy behind him on the street, and the wife left seven poor little children at home. Unlike most Injured hus bands, Simpson, although nearly crazed with grief, did not shoot himself, but like a sensible man procured a bottlo of Scotch oats Essxnck, which calmed his excitement, relieved his split ting head, allayed his Irritation, cleared his brain, and, allowing his runaway wife to go her own way, he set about supporting his children. Moral: Tnu runaway horse had tpo much oats, the runaway wife too little, her husband Just enough, y as ho spoke tho next moment Arthur en tered the room, whito and breathless. Tho Earl aud Bruco rose. "What Is the matter?" the young man asked. "My undo," Arthur stammered, "he is dead he died ulono last night of heart disease, tho doctor says. I want Bruco to como back with mo to comfort Honor sho scorns half mad." I will come," Bruco answered, flashing a warning look at his father. You say the doctor has seen your undo "Ycb." And he sas it is heart disease Yes ho bos no doubt of it. Wo havo tel egraphed to tho doctor who used to attend mv uncle in London, but we scarcely know what to do ft is a terrible shock."

Father," turning to the Earl, I shall stav so long as I can be of uso." tor a moment a strugglo went on in the old man's mind. Ho thought of his unstained namo, upon which disgrace had never fallen; of the wives of earls of generations past who had como from great and noble families; then he thought of Honor, of hor sweet face, her innocent pride in hor father's name, of the great trouble which had fallen upon her and no took his son's hand. "Ilelp our friends, of course," ho said, "and glvo my loving sympathy to Honor. Tell her," of ter a slight struggle, that she has a father still." God bless you, dad 1" Bruce said, press ing his hand; "I shall never forget thoso words." Tho young men left tho room together, Bruco ordered his horse, and after twenty minutes' hard riding, thoy reached the Hoi. 'lies. They flung themselves from their horses, and entered tho houso. Where is she?" Bruco asked. Thoro," Arthur answered, pointing to tho study. Is sho is sho olono?" No with him." With hushed steps Bruco entered the room. The shutters wero closed bo could scarcoly seo, coming as he had out of tho bright sun shine. In a minute his eyes grow accustomed to tho darkness. At the far end of tho room he saw a dim white outline, and in n momont more Honor kneeling beside it. He crossed itohor gently aud knelt also.

The Tallahatchie ltlver runs for a short distance here parallel with the Yuoo, and these forts wero built to be used aa defenses against the enemy coming down the former river. It Is not more than three hundred yards from ono river to the other at historic Fort I'cmberton. Besides tho cm hankments large rafts wero sunk in the Talla hatchie ltlver, and tho noted hlstorlo Star of the West waa there scuttled ami sunk across tho chan nel of the rl or. A party from uroonwood a tow days ago made a visit to this plscc.

Copper bolts and tacks, Iron and brasa nails and spikes were secured by dint of hard work and delving In the mud and dibrla that lie In sheets of one Inch to a foot In thickness on the frame of this hlstorlo craft. Each of the party acoured such relics as they beat could find or fancy coveted, my share con sisting of blocks of cedar, copper nails and tacks and iron spikes. Dr. J. r.

A SPIUNT-BUNNEtt'S LEGS. It la tbe Length of the tllnaclo and Not tbe Thickness that Counts. At Sargtanl in 5rnbnr'i Jfoyarffl, We feel prepared to maintain that relatively long limbs, with a Bhort body, full chest and small bones, will characterize the typical ahort-dlatanco runner wherever ho may be found. Short ruccs (loo, two aud 440 yards) are often won by a few Inchos, and tho value of an liioh or two In a run ner's stride Is of tho greatest Importance, for, other qualifications being equal, thla man la bound to be first at the goal, Tho small girth of the legs of runners Is often mystifying. From tho girth of a muscle we get a correct Idea of Its volume ur trauvcrse diameters, but learn little of Its length and the extent of Its contractile fibres. Whereas It Is the length of the muscle, and not tbe thickness, that la of slgnin canoe to short-distance runners. Given the phys iological fact that a musole can contract about one-third ot Its length, It will readily bo seen that tho longer the muscle the greater will bo the movement of tho part to which It Is attached. To the runner the desired movement Is In tho eleva tion uf tho thigh and the extension and noxlon of tho leg and foot. An Instantaneous photograph of sprint-runners shows that the range In the move mentof tho limbs Is very extensive the stride of a fast walker being from four to six feet, and that of a fast runner from six to eight feet. If tho staU uro Is short. It la neoesssry fur the runner to get a greater elevation from the ground at each step in order to maintain a long stride. When this Is done a relatively long lower leg Is of the greatest ad. vantage. This faot Is admirably brought out In tho case ot Myers, tho professional runner. With a height of a feet 1 Inches, which is a llttlo below tho mean, or SO per cent, claim, he baa a length of lower leg which corresponds to a man over 6 feet 10 Inches In height, a length of thigh usually found In men of s feet 9 Inches, while the sitting height li:the same as that which makes up tho stature ot men of s feet 4 Inches. Gave the Crook a Pointer. llYom IJt Chicago Journal. Two gentlemen neighbors happening to sit next to each other on the street car on tho morning trip to their offices, one remarked to tho other that ho should bo bothered all day because he had left his watch under his pillow. Then dhey naturally fell Into a conversation as to how they disposed of their valuables at night. At tho next street corner a man got off, went back to tbe house of tho owner of tbe watch, whom he knew by sight and reputa tion, and represented himself to the lady of tbe house as a messenger from her husband sent for his watch left under his pillow. She, finding the valuable In that place, unsuspectingly banded It to the thief, who ran no risk whatever of detection, and deliberately walked away with his booty. Another rase waa that ot a lady, some years ago, who, whllo ascending on the elevator of one of our largest dry.goods stores, suddenly dis covered that she had left her silver portcmonale at some counter. A cash-bov was lu thn pipvutnr going up to the top floor with them. Send this oy to the desk for It," said the lady's friend. Thereupon the lady described tho purse, Its con. tents aud Its Inscription. The boy left the goods ho was carrying at their destination, received his return instructions, and then went to the desk, lie was Just s moment or so too late, "I have Just given that purse to a woman who described It accurately,'' said tbe clerk at tho desk, "and she went Immediately out of the door. The owner of the purse should nave bethought herself how many auditors she bad In the elevator. i Oue Way of lias-nine Ducks. from the Philadelphia -V..l For the past three yeara a great many ducks that have come on the Chesapeake fists early In the season have been taken and sold out of season to the city markets. The mode by which they have been caught has been with a patent net, which Is used In the summer and fall by fishermen In catoh lng large rock, perch and other Ssh. These nets are laid out or anchored below the surface of the water, and It was discovered that early In the fall ducka that fed on the shallow parts ot the flats would become entangled In these nets aud be easily captured. This was not considered a viola tion of the law, as no guns were used, and as high as 1,000 ducks have been bagged In a single- night and shipped away, labelled as fish. Yesterday Gunning Policeman Peter Golloway visited the flats at Havre de Grace and arrested six well-known fishermen and gunners on a charge of violating the law In having wild fowl In their possession, which were caught by their nets. Much Interest is centred in the arrests and the trial, which la pro posed to be a test case. Well Gratified. From the tftv JIatcn Atart.

A New ami Unique Form or Angleinuula, Which Is Inrrsnslngf t WMhlHtlton l'otft Knt YotU Utl'r.) The droll attempt to apply the law prohibiting the "importation of foreign contract labor" to the cue of an Episcopal clergyman brought from England under contract to fill the place of rector of Church of the Holy Trinity, reminds me of curious change that has taken place In New York since tho closo of the war. Ono cannot help being astonished at the number of leading clergymen In tho city who have been brought over hero from abroad to fill the pulpits of our fsshlonsblo churches. Tako a few facts. In my boyhood tho leading clergyman of the Episcopal denomination hero was the Itev, Dr. Tyng, an American by birth; but now that place Is held by sn Engllsmsn of recent Immigration. Tho leading clergyman of the Presbyterian denomination was tho ltev. Dr. Spring, American by birth; but now that placo is held by the ltev. John Hall, a Belfast Irishman, discovered by Itobert Bonner. Tho leading clcrgymsn of tho Congregatlonalist denom ination was tho ltov. Dr. Joseph Thompson, an American by birth; but now the placo Is held by the Hev. Dr. Taylor, a Scotchmun, brought hero as Mr. Thompson's successor In the Tabernacle. 1 he leading clergyman of the Unitarian Church wasthollcv. Dr. Bellows, a born American: but iw that place Is held by the ltev. Dr. Collyer, an ..ngllshmuii who csine over hero some rears ago. Tho leading clergyman of tho Dutch ltcformed Church was the Itev. Dr. Vcrmllyca, of old American stock; hut now the Disco (a held bv the ltov. Dr. Ormlaton. a largo-headed Scotchman who camo to this country under contract." The loading clergyman of tho Bcccherltu faith was its renowned founder, Henry Ward Bcecher; but now even Plymouth Church has been desirous of securing the services of the ltev. Dr. Parker, of England, as Mr. lleccher's successor. If we go down from such famous men as those Just named to the lesser lights of the New York pulpit, wo find the change In the samo direction to be still more remarkable. Almost every year clergymen aro brought over from the British Isles for somo of our churches. Why this desrth of acceptable clergymen of American birth In theso days, when they used to bo so abundant In other times? There Is no such scarcity of ability and eloquenco in politics or tho law aa to compel us to Import a supply from abroad; why should there bo scarcity of talent In the pulpit T We havo plenty ot theological schools for training clergymen of all denominations, and several thousands of young theologians who ought to be well equipped must be turned out from them every year. The professors of these Institutions cannot bo less competent than those In similar In stltutlons abroad, and It cannot be ad mitted that tho pupils are any way In ferior to those who aro preparing for the clerical profession In Great Britain. Thero la something incomprehensible In this business. The salaries paid to the leading lights are large, and the clergy enjoy many pcrqulsltlcs which highly Increase their emoluments. Besides tho financial Inducements the men ot tbe cloth enjoy a social standing, with opportunities of winning fame Buch aa ure not easily secured In other vocations. I am not aware that the erperlcnco of other American cities la Uko that 'A New York In this matter, but any further discussion of the subject must be left to the religious papers, which ought to trace It to the roota and furnish us the bottom facts. We ought surely to be able to supply our own pulplta with all tho talent that maybe needed. A CHINAMAN'S STRATEGY. Ilia Buae for Showing Tfant tbe Stolen Sample-Case Was Ills Own. (fVn the HI. Hint OM: Tom Burke Is a disciple of Leigh Hunt In dealing with his fellow-men, but a recent experience haa caused him to modify his feeling somewhat with regard to the almond-eyed sous of the Flowery Kingdom. It happened thus: Recently Tom camo down from Duluth via the Omaha night train, and whllo at Spoouer stepped over to warm his Inner msn with a cup of coffee. On returning to the train his sample-case was missing. Tom hunted through the train In com pany with several other Knights of tbe Grip, and learned that u heathen Chinee had boon seen leav ing the car with a sample-case. Pell-mell Into the waiting-room rushed Tom; followed by tho gang, and thero In the corner sat a demure and Innocent-looking son of Confucius, dressed In a full suit of civilized broadcloth. "Here," says Tom, "where is my sample casot" Mo not know, 'Mellcan man." Tom's band came down on tbe Celestial's shoul der, aud whirling him Into tho centre ot tho room, he demanded tho case, followed with a threat to cut off his cue. Walking up three or four seats, tho Mongolian pointed under tho set tee. Tom made a dlvo under the seat and hauled forth his cherished companion, and was about to start for the train. You holeu on llttlo mtnuto. Dat my gllp; him got liiyglub lu him." Tom stopped, and setting the caso down, opened It. The pig-tall pointed to a llttlo square tin box, remarking: Dut my own self gllp; him got Uhtuecmau glub In him. Turn picked up tho box, opened It, and thero lay a mouse dead. That raw-hldo son of a washeo had emptied out Tom's sample of o. G. Java and placed In Its stead tho rodent, hoplug thereby to prove his pro prietorship. Thero was a pause, a mouse-colored expression stole over Tom's face. Thou he laid a hand on that Chinaman's pig-tall and, straighten ing himself up, he whirled tho surprised rat catcher through tho door. The midnight air was loaded with whoopees as that frightened Celestial made u break for the woods, and In two minutes tho wires bore tho following message: Allan, Moon A Co., Ht.

Tho titled gentry, of course, always scribbled down the full category of tholr pricnomlna, with endless and unintelligible abbreviations and marks uf quality, and the gentle emtio which these excited only broke into a ripple of laughter when thero appeared tho bold, round rhlrography of our friend John Smith, of America."

For instance: Brown, traveller, Now York," waa brief but not very explicit; while "Col. Jonea Wayback, Kentucky," was a trifle more bo. The signatures of u party of o.

When wo were among the Laramie Mountains we ran across an old fellow who had a little ranch in one of tho parks, but who appeared to give moat of hla time to hunting and trapping. I hear there's been another aafo robbery down at Cheyenne," he aald. Yes, 1 heard something about ono," I replied "It beats all them fellows down there can't protect their money. You bet tho burglars wouldn't grow rich carryln' off my money If I lived there an' had pack-loads of It." What's your plant" vT,.'Jl,,e'irLraf"! D,ow lcr-iraps. every timet Nothing like 'em I Sock your money Into a box set your bear-trapln front of It, cover It up carei less like with newspapers or something, an' there youhaiolt. You never seen a burglar carrvln' off anybody's money with an eighty-pound bear trup bltln' onto his leg, nor nobody else never did After a man has shcued his leg Intoadouble rprlng bear-trap up to the knee you bet he'a mluhtv glad to seo even a Sheriff couiln'. If these "ore business men would put less money into time locks, an' combinations, an' cast-iron safes sn' lea' get a good bear and mountain lion trap Inside the door every night, you'd see fewer busted store keepers and more one-legged burglars." I i Too Damp far the Corpse. (i"ro llnfalo Eiprttt,) There la a real rain-storm In Frank Frayne'a Mardo at the Court btrcet Theatre thla week It comes In at the close of the first act. The stage Is spread with a tarpaulin cloth, and a stout stage hand at a force pump furnishes the pressure which sends a shower of snrsy dow from a perforated pipe In the me. Not muoh water falls two or three gallons, perhaps but It looks like quite a rain shower, and what there is of I Is wet. At the matinee yesterday afternoon, in the slaughter which takea place before the storm, one of the actors fell, supposedly dead. Just Inside the rain line. The mock corpse endured the shower for a few seconds, then wriggled partly to one aide and finally, in damp desperation, came to life and sought shelter. The rain line la now chalked on the floor for convenience ot dying men. l J. DEUM CO., 8UOCKHHOKH TO A. T.
