SELECT STORY.
A DETECTIVES EXPERIENCE.
ArEMAI.E FORGER.

"Not many years ago. said Mr..
F. -, "the mercantile community
were annoyed by an immense amount
of spurious paper most dextrously
put in circulation. Checks we've
presented at the principal banks
signed by the firms OF prominent
houses, and money in the aggregate
amounting to nearly fifty thousand
dollars obtained upon it. The pc
culiar circumstances of the case dis
closed the fact that the forgerresided
in the city, and for months we were
on the gui rice to detect the criminal.
Every new face, every stranger whose
occupation and pursuits were not
thoroughly understood, were sub
jected by Mr.. = and myself to
a most rigid scrutiny. Still we were
at fault. 1t is not difficult to find out
the person who is not guilty of an
offence the trouble is to discover
who is. And thus our search went
on. Baflled in one direction, we took
another. Aside from the reward,
which was ample, our pride was in
terested in detecting the person who,
almost before our eyes, practced
such open frauds. One day 1 saw a
lady paying for bill of goods with
a check. Before she had time to
leave the store l obtained a look st
the paper, and was satisfied it was
not genuine. Still L was not certain.
The lady was deeply veiled, and
was subjected to the alternative Of
following her. This l did and traced
her home.
1t was a besutiiul little cottage.
with large yard and garden. Taste
and culture had fashioned tue gray
eled walks, and trained the dense but
beautiful foliage into parterres, as
curious as novel and pretty. Vines
crept over the portico and trailed
along the network of the gallery
The white and red hollyhock bloomed
at the gate, and the margin of the
walks was bedded with ylolets and
/
thesweetscented yer bena.@ The per
fume of orange blossoms mingled
with the odor of the rose, and the
senses were delighted with the evil
dent beauty that peryaded the place.
l FASTENED back to the place where
the check was passed, and which Mr..
- had already. eascertained TO
nave been forged. We had now OBJ
tanned a clue, which, if carefully
pursued, we were satisfied would
| lead to the detection OF the criminal
g We waited till morning, and it was
then determined that should visit
her alone. / did so, and found the
lady seated in q pleasant little parlor,
looking out ON the miniature lawn
The room was exquisitely furnished,

WE give below a brief outline of
the new Homestead Law, which has
Just passed the Ohio Legislature
This law is one in which the public
are greatly interested:
lat. That it exempts a homestead
of $1,000 in value, instead of sao0 as
blythe present law
2d7, In icase the head OF a family
is not the owner of a homestead, it
increases the amount of his personal
property exempted 20 $500, in. addi-
tion to the specific articles of personal
property now exempted. TT &
81. In case OF sale OF real estate
homestead, which is not
susceptible OF division and when tue
value exceeds $1,000, the owner is
reserved an annual rent Of 500,
instead of $40, as is now provided by
law. .a-l,
4eh. When homestead is charg
ed with liens, some OF which pre-
teIude the allowance OF homestead
tand others do not preclude sucl
allowance, alter payment of liens
which preclude such allowance, tn,
balance. not exceeding $500, shall b'
awarded to the head of the family.

A Frame Building 22 Miles in Length

A Frame Building 22 Miles in Length.
Persons who pass hastily over the
Union and Pacific Railroad hardly
give a thought to the immense
amount of work which has been per
formed by the company. From the
SACRAMENTO to the present terminus
Of the road, st Elke, the trains are
once more running regularly.
The immense amount of money
and labor expended in cutting
through the mountains, opening tun
nels, grading the road and laying the
track, can with difficulty be realized
by those not famiIiar with the busi-
ness. Not the least of the problems
to be solved was that of protecting
the track from the heavy falls OF
snow which were TO be anticipated
during the winter months. To obvi-
ate this difficulty as far as possible,
the Company determined to erect a
series of sheds, or rather one build
ing, which should protect the road
over the snow-line Accordingly,
they have erected building which
is doubtless the largest in the world.
It is twenty-five miles in length, six
teen feet in width, and sixteen feet
In height, not including the pitch of
the roof. 1t is put up in the most
substantial manner, all the tlmbers
being of the best quality to be obtain
ed. The sides are inclosed and were
it not for the fact that daylight pen
etrates through the interstices of the
boards, the whole affair would he
very much like a huge tunnel. The
building is braced together in a most
peculiar manner, and is, in addition,
firmly bolted to the rocks wherever
the road nears the face of the cliff.
Where snow slides are to be feared,
an extension of the roof has been
carried to the cliffs, so that the fall
ing masses shall pass over the build
ing and lodge on the other side. In
many places where the side tracks
are located, the building is wider
than the figures given above. More
than 400 0,009, 900 feet OF lumber have
been used in its construction. 1t
covers an area of more than l,S00,-
600 square feet, or nearly forty-four
acres. One OF the best proofs of the
stability of the structure is in the
fact that, with the exception OF few
miles which had not been really COM
pleied, it thoroughly answered the
purpose for which it was designed,
during the recent severe storm. in
which it was subjected to the most
severe tests s.-AAa California;.

Few days, at most, the men whit

will be to select the orators for tht
occasion, and choose the wines TO he
used at the grand libation.
We do not complain; we long acc
learned that there is no law which
viii prevent men from making lar
ders and wine-vats of bellies hence
and furthermore, as it is not improb-
able that we may have man there
TO gorge and guzzle with the rest, we
have only to inquire if there is not
some better and more appropriate
way of celebrating a great event than
the method that Chicago has usually
adopted.
We know of nothing in the history
of our festive occasions to encourage
a repetition of the experiment that,
in the effort to he hospitable, the city
has often made. From the great
"blow-out" at the Board of Trade
Hall, when two thousand, more or
less, soldiers were so filled with drink
that, to use the poetical illustration
OF Governor Crandall, of the Cham
paign Union, the "whisky stopped
out of their ears every time they
moved their heads,'' away back,
through great numser of "celebra-
tiens' and "cOmmemoratlons,' to
the days of 1886, when every body
used to get drunk with the Indians,
n Drunk-often A BeastIy Drunk,
in which hosts and quests We'd with
each other 10 see who could get the
nrunkest--has been what Chicago
had to offer. ~, ~--t
See Naples, and die. is the injunc-
ton among . people not more i'm
pressible than our own. We treat
strangers better than the Neapoli-
-ans. See the crib, the tunnel, the
elevators, the water-works, and then
get drunk is the command OF
Chicago to the 'sfestiye cusses" who
;ome within her borders. On such
,ccasions, they are mainly the festive
;usses who do come.
The opening of the Pacific road
