NO. 20.

His home is near MaTceys Lake, Tunk-
hammock, and it has been ascertained OH
good authority that he is ar old offender
of some twenty years standing:
TIE DETECTIVE FORCE
engaged in the working up of the case
have frequently had some very trying and
embarrassing experiences, and Mr.. Slocum
and his aids have frequently Travelled a
whole night on the strength Of some in
formation they received, into the country,
only to find when they arrived there that
they had been pursuing an unfounded rut-
NOR. For upwards of two weeks an expe-
rienced detective from the treasury depart
ment at Washington, watched the region
i'll which the ramifications of the rag
money makers were carried on. To keee
his avOcation secret troubled him OK
ceedingly on his first arrival here, as he
made his headquarters at one of the prin-
cipal hotels in Scranton, where he at first
represented himself as journalist. Learn
ing that reporter of one of the local
papers was stopping at the same place, he
changed tactics and passed himself off as IA
commercial agent, lest the local man of
letters might approach him on professional
topics, and SO reveal his true character
Mentioning the matter to friend, also d
detective of high-standing in this country
he ascertained that he need have no alarm,
as the newspapers would not defeat the
ends of justice by publishing the case until
it was ripe for the reading public, and the
entire gang of criminals in the clutches of
the law. In the course of a conversation
with U. S. Deputy Marshal Slocum, yeste-
day, he assured us that he believed Camp
to be the leading criminal, that the case
had been worked to its utmost limits, and
there was nothing now that he cared to
keep from the public, as he was sure the
plot was defeated, the "game' spoiled, and
the desperadoes foiled in their initiation
| tactics.

Business Law.

The following brief complication Of busI-
ness law is worth a careful preservation, as
it contains the essence of large amount Of
legal verbiage:
1t is not legally necessary to say on a
note ''for value received
Contracts made on Sunday cannot be en-,
forced
A note by minor is void
4 contract made with a minor is also
void.
4 contract made with lunatic is also void
A note obtained by fraud, or from a
person in state Of intoxication. cannot be
collected.
If a note is lost or stolen, it does not re-
lease the maker; he must pay it, if the
consideration for which it was given and
the amount, can be proven.
An endorser of a note is exempt from
! liability If not served with notice of dis
honor within twenty four hours of its nom
payment. .....:
Notes bear interest only where it is SO
stated.
Principals are responsible for the acts of
their agents.
Each individual in partnership IS re-
sponsiblc for the whole amount of debts of
the firm
Ignorance of the law excuses no one.
1t is a fraud to conceal fraud.
The law compels no one to do impossi-
bilities
An agreement without consideration is
void.
Signatures made with lead pencil are
good in law. .,......

A Loaf of Bread.

In a time of famine, a rich man allowed
twenty of the poorest children in the town
to come to his house, and said to them
''In this basket there is loaf of bread for
each of YOU Take it and come at the same
hour every day, till God sends better
times"
The children pounced upon the BASKET,
struggled and fought over the bread be-
cause each wished to have the largest and
best loaf, and then they went away without
a word of thanks to their friend.
But Francesca, a little girl meanly,
though neatly dressed, stood at distance,
and gratefully took the loaf that was left in
the basket, which was the smallest aud she
kissed the good mans hand, and went
quietly home.
The next day the children were just as
naughty and ill-behaved and this time there
was left for poor Francesca loaf that was
hardly halfas large as the others. But
when she reached home, and her mother
cut the bread, there fell out a number of
new pieces of silver. The mother was
frightened and said, ''Take back, the money
this moment, for it is certainly in the bread
by mistake" Francesca took it back.
But the kind man said, at is no mis-
take, my good child had the money baked
in the smallest loaf in order to reward you.
Be always as contented and yielding rs you
now are. He who is contcnted with the
smallest loaf, rather than quarrel for the
largest, will receive abundant blessings"

airy, upon the life ana character OF
Abraham Lincoln, brings out many
things in regard to that truly great and
good man that are new to the general
public. He also relates many of the
pleasing puns gotten of by Mr.. Lin
coin. In an account of the lecture,
given by An exchange. il is said that on
one occasion, when some Chicago
clergymen called upon the President,
earnestly requesting him to emanci-
pate the slayes-the time not yet being
ripe for that act-and when Mr.. Lin.
coin declined to give them positive
promise, one of the ministers solcmnly
said: "Mr. President, l feel that am
commissioned of God to naove You to
do this act" 81 believe it is very
probable" said Mr.. Lincoln, "that God
wishes me to do this, but isn't it lit
tie singular that the word should come
by the way of Chicago?' AT another
time, word was brought in that a
Brigadier General and twelve mules
had been captured by the rebels. "That
is bad" said the President, "The Brig
adler Generals place | can supply, but
the mules are worth one hundred and
fifty dollars apiece"

Mr.. Il. ". Stoughton, wei! known law.

in the Times of that city very able re-
view OF the recent proceedings in the Leg
islature of New Orleans. He shows that
the alleged Legislature which was ''broken
in upon by the military" was not Legis-
lature at all, but revolutionary body,
which had seized possession of the House
by violent and illegal means. and then had,
"by fraud or force, SC added to their num-
bers as to become majority"
The statement made that Legislature
peaceably assembled had been. wantonly
dispersed by orders Of the President. is pro-
nounced by Mr.. Stoughton "utterly with
out foundation" The New York Times
aptly remarks: 'sIf the Democratic party
could be depended upon to approach the

The London Globe says: ut is said
that among the possessions inherited
by the present Duke of Richmond was
found bank-note for $4,000. This
unique piece Of paper money, of whose
existence we have no doubt, was pre-
served with great caution, and by
means which must have been . source
of peril to friends and foes. We are
informed that the late duke caused tho
note to be deposited in q casket, and
this casket was so fastened that any
one who:attempted to handle IL Ut once
received six pistol shots. The ingeni-
GUS casEet, we are told, became bur-
densome possession to the present
duke. His ancestor had not transmit.
ted to him the seret by which 1t might
be opened with safety, and he was,
therefore, not unnaturally timid In the
examination Of his treasure. Under
these circumstances, we are mot sur.
prised that he finally determined TO
deliver the casket and :ts contens to the
Bank Of England, and to permit the
officers of that establishment to invos-
tigate the ingenuity Of the terrible
continuance. The duties Of the prop
erty would even be in excess of its
rights IL every inheritance were tied
up in this way"
