The London Metropolitan Underground
Railway has had steady and growing pros
perity since its opening. The following sta
tistics of Its operation may be found interest.
ing: The weekly traffic receipts of the road
have steadily increased in more than an equal
proportion with the advance of the line to-
wards completion. From f2005 in the week
ending January Z, 1864, they rose to s49ll for
for the week ending January I, 1870. The
weekly receipts per mile which amounted to
f52l in the week ending March Is, 1868, rose
to 1882 in the week ending March Is, 1867. and
to flO36 in the week ending March Is, 1870.
The effect of the public holidays upon the
traffic Is notable also. as we'll as that Of special
shows and exhibitions. Christmas and Easter,
for example, have produced, on the average,
an increase of from f400 to $500 in the receipts
over the weeks directly preceding, ever since
the road was opened to traffic.

A Long CHASE.
A Burglar and Counterfeiter Hunted
for Three Years.
From the Detroit Free Press, 2lst

Nearly four years ago the little village of
Utica, Macomb county. awoke one morning
to find that it had suddenly assumed me-
tropolitan airs, inasmuch as a gang of bur
glars had the night before "cracked" q safe
standing in the establishment of promi-
nent business man named VIM, Summers.
The booty secured consisted of a large sum
in greenbacks, most of which belonged to
other parties than Summers, and some very
valuable papers. The affair was not dis.
covered until hours after the craftsmen
had made good their escape, and the only
move that could be made was to put the
detectives of this city OF what trail had
been left. The detectives could hold ont
no hope of speedy capture
1t was finally ascertained that George
Cameron was the leader in the affai, De-
tectiye Sullivan took the track of this man,
but Cameron made his escape into Canada.
The next heard of Cameron was from
Colonel wood of the secret service, who
teegrGphed that the fellow was in possess
sion OF a big sum of counterfeit money.
with the plates from which the bills had
been struck, AID he was making for this
side OF the river. Sullivan again took up
the chase, tad ran Cameron out OF This
city and around the State until he again
lost him in Canada He had passed con-
siderable quantity of the money. aud given
a large share of it to pals who all con-
spired to battle the detective ami allow
Cameron to escape, A warrant waa issued
for the fellow for passing counterfeit
money, and that warrant has been in the
note books of the detectives and marshals
up to day or two ago, as it was the deter
mination Of all acquainted with the case,
not to give up until the game was safely
placed behind the prison bars.
Where Cameron has been since his last
escape to Canada is not really known, al
though from words let drop by HIM, it is
good share OF the time A few wears ago
Detective Sullivan, who then held the long.
issued warrant, received notice from a dep
uty marshal at Kalamazoo that person
supposed TO be Cameron had paid that city
visit, evidently for the purpose of secur-
ing some one to aid him in passing his
bills. Sullivan made arrangements for the
mans capture, should he return, the result
of. which was that the genuine Cameron.
safe blower and counterfeiter is now in the
county jail in this city, having been
brought in Thursday evening. On the way
hither he grew rather communicative, after
finding that he could not sink his identity
and referred in n jocular manner to the OPP
erations at Utica. He acknowledged that
while he was too sharp for the detectives
and marshals on short chase, they were
too knowing for him in the long run, and
seemed to feel that his next tour from De-
troit would end in prison.

A SEVERE REBUkE.
A Revenue shark Caught-Techntcal
Violations OF the Revenue Laws.

Acting Commissioner Douglass has writ
ten the following letter to q person in Al
bany;
SIR; / have received your letter of the
I'd inst, in which you state that upon the
receipt Of my letter of Feb. s, you com
menced five suits against ---- for using
half-barrels for putting up tobacco a sec
ond and third time, and that, after four
hours hearing before the United States
Commissioners, upon the rec Ommenda'ion
of District Attorney --, these suits
were all dismissed, and you now write to
inquire if there is no way by which Mr..
----'-- can be arrested for the offence
charged against him, In reply, have to
inform you, that however reluctant you
may be to give up this case and to fail in
claiming your anticipated moieties, am
entirely satisfied with the decision made by
the Commissioner. From your statement
OF this case, it was clearly trick on your
part aided, perhaps, by the person who
purchased the tobacco of Mr. --, to COM
nit the latter 10 technical violation OF
.he law, in order that you might bring the
suits. Clearly il was not out of any respect
you had for the law, or care that its re-
qulrements should all be faithfully COM
piled with, or fear that the revenue would
be defrauded I am informed that both
you and your accomplice distinctly stated
before the I. 5. Commissioner that the
stamps were thoroughly removed from the
packages after they were first en- piled, and
that when they were re-fled by he
affixed genuine new stamps, thus demon
stratlng that Mr.. neither intended
nor practiced any fraud upon the revenue.
Mr.. - is manufacturer and dealer in
tobacco, and he has 6iven bonds in the
sum of $4,000 for the faithful perform
ance of all the requirements of the law
and the payment OF taxes, which may &C.
crue against him. As dealer and manu-
facturer, ne has paid considerable sums of
money into the United States Treasury,
and is, therefore, entitled to some consid-
Grafton at the hands of the government, to
protection at least against voluntary spies
and self.appointed detectives, who would
set traps and snares for honest men for the
moiety OF. hundred dollars fine, and sell
their manhood for thirty pieces of silver
You ask for an answer TO your letter that
you may show to Commissioner -. l
shall be very glad if you will show this to
the Commissioner, that he may know that
| approve of his disposition OF these cases;
and, further, that he may know IN what es-
timation this Office hollis men who may
make business of hunting up technical
violations of law ard entering complaints
in hope of obtaining therefrom moie,ies
and iuformer's shares.

A Female sheriff in Iowa.
From the Burlington Hawkeye.

Much interest has been excited by the
empanelng of jury of women IN Wyo-
ming Territory, and the appointment OF
females as notary publics and to other
civic functions heretofore supposed to be
irrevocably reserved to the masculine sex,
1t is reserved to Iowa, however to produce
the first female sheriff, and to Des Moines
county to be the first in the state to ac-
cord to woman the difficult and trying
duties of the sherifalty. 1t is true the
people have not formally elected # lady as
sheriff of this county, but in so far as
''practice is better than precept," the sub
stance superior to the shadow. and the
"deed greater than the name" to that ex-
tent Des Moines county has lady sheriff,
or Mt least lady deputy sheriff
OF course, we allude to the estimable wife
of our worthy sheriff, j. H. Latty, Esq.
Mrs. Latty at various times has displayed
remarkable GOODNESS and nerve in the man
agement of the county Jail, over which she
presides with frmness of judgment and
vigor of rule rarely excelled by the best
of prison wardens.
At one time a desperate confined in one
of the cells attempted to escape by making
man of straw reclining upon his couch as
usual, while the flesh and blood prisoner
secreted himself III an empty cell and
awaited the advent of Mrs. Latty, who, in
the absence of her husband, entered the
Jail room 10 lock up the prisoners for the
night When she came to the cell
containing the man Of straw avery clever
imitation of man asleep. she called
his name, and hearing no response, entered
in and detected the cheat. Instead of call
ing for outside help in an emergency which
plainly indicated plot and determine
ton upon the part of one or more prison.
ers to break Jail, Mrs, Latty quietly pro-
ceeded to the other cell and marched the
prospective fugitive back to his cell and
locked him up. AS he was heavy muscu-
lar man, and the deputy sheriff a slender,
light built woman, it is evident that nerve
tiiumphed over muscle. Womar'v coGr-
age was more than match for brutal force
and the desperation Of criminal seeking
to fee from the hands of justice
On another occasion two young men in q
cell refusing to cease their profane and
boisterous language the deputy entered
the cell and gave them q sound tloggng
with whip until, with tears in their eyes,
the rascals promised better behavior.
The last exploit of our deputy, and one
which recalled to our mind the preceding
incidents, was the taking of prisoner to
the penitentiary few days ago. A man
who had been arrested for stealing carpet
bag at the Union depot in this city last
January was sentenced, at the last term OF
the District Court, to two years imprison-
ment in the penitentiary, and was taken to
Fort Madison by Mrs Latty alone, and
without any assistance from Others and
duly delivered him to Warden Kelsey,
The establishment of the warden and the
Fort Madisonians knew no bounds.

A PENNSYLVANIA Trout Pond.

At Williamsport, Pa. there are trout
ponds owned by Mr. Peter Herdc, which
are thus described in the correspondence
Of the Baltimore American:
"The ponds ale situated at the base of q
high hill from which flows an abundant
supply OF clear spting water, They are
oblong, and about ten feet wide by fifty in
length their sides walled up with stone
and cement. In one pond large stock of
trout from two TO three years old is kept,
many OF which are eighteen inches in
length These are kept for breeding, aud
are quite tame, feeding readily from tho
hnd of the keeper In another pond
trout ten inches in length are Kept, while
il another little fish scarcely longer than
pin may be seen slowly moving around
They are all fed twice a day ON liver chop.
ped very fine, with an occasional meal of
cauber As the trout are in the habit OF
eating both the spawn and young fish,
much care is requisite in raising stock
successfully, and the smaller fish are thus
kept separate The practice of stripping
the spawn from the old fish is not resorted
to here, as immature spawn is often seour-
ed, and the fish injured by rough handling.
tank adjoining the breeding trout is kept
for the purpose OF spawning, and in the fall,
when they commence, wooden frames with
fine wire-work eight or ten wires TO the
iuch) are sunk, in sections, to the bottom OF
the tank Other frames with coarser wire-
work. covered with pebbles sufficiently
large SO AZ not to pass between the wires,
and then laid on top OF those first immers.
ed, which gives to the bottom of the tank
| the appearance of n smooth pebbly bottom.
The place is then made partially dark, and
for three weeks the fish deposit their spawn.
After brushing the pebbles away with their
tails, the upper wire work il reached. On
this they spawn, replacing the pebbles in
the same manner. The spawn, however,
has run through the coarse wire-work,
and rests securely on the finer sieve
below. At the end of the season the
sections are all taken up and the spawn
laid in shallow boxes containing rsbbIes
These are placed in long trough, through
which a current of water is made to run,
not, however, strong enough to aisplace
the spawn. This continues until the young
fish make their appearance, when they are
carried down by the water into the pond
set apart for their juvenile days. Last
summer 81 per pound was offered for the
large trout contained in these ponds. and
refused. The determination of the owner
is to raise supply sufficiently old to take
the place of the breeders before commence
ing to dispose of them This he expects
to be able to do by next summer.

A Case of Mistaken Identity.

The Frankfort Ieoman irresponsible for
the following story;
We had the pleasure of greeting yester-
day. our friend, Colonel w. d. Lannom, of
Paris, Tennessee, who spent the day in
our city, it being his first visit to Frankfort
since 1901, when he represented the
counties of Hickman and Fulton ia the
Legislature His visit recalls an amusing
incident which occurred on the memorable
excursion of the Kentucky Leg
islature to Cincinnati and Co
lumbus ut the invitation of the
Ohio Legislature just before the war;
while he was u member. Among the party
were Gen. Scott Brown, of this county, then
Adiutaut General; Clinton McClarty, Clerk
OF the House, aud Gen. Geo b. Hodge
then a representative of Campbell county
Now it happens that Lauhom and McClarty
strikingly resembled each other, while IN
features and gneral personal appearance
General Hodge aud General Brown
were not unlike One DAY
while being entertained very Hospitality
IN Cincinnati, it seems that Lannom and
Brown returned together TO the Barnet
House, and entered the parlor arm in-arm,
feeling very comfortable after Their round
OF pleasure and sightseeing. Opposite the
door by which they came in there was a
large mirror reaching from the ceiling to
the floor AIistaking this for door, and
seeing their own images, Lannom
remarked "See yonder Brown, there
comes Clint, McClarty and George
Hodge" Yes" says Brown; 'and
as tight as bricks" Lets go and take
them of to bed, said Lannom, aud they
advanced to carry out their purpose, until
they were first appraised OF their error by
coming in contact with the mirror, Lam
nom says it was a remarkable case OF mis-
taken personal identity and not at al at
tributable, as some might infer, to the PEI
culiar influence under which exeursIonlsts
are generally supposed to labor
