Three Innocent Men.

There innocent looking men were
waiting at the Central depot the other
evening for Western train to 60 out.
They we're meek and lowly in general ap.
pearance, and as they walked around they
became known to each other, and finding
that they had a whole hour to spare, one
of them proposed to 60 across the street
and get some lemonade. While en- route
q second moved to make it lager beer.
When they got over the third intimated
that whisky would suit him. and all took
whisky straight. This broke the ice, and
they decided to play little game of cut
throat eucher. After playing game or
two it was decided to increase the interest
by putting up little money.
can spare that much" said the first,
as he threw down a counterfeit five-dollar
bill.
"I'll see that and say nothing about the
premium" said the second, as he took out
q bill from broken Canadian bank.
"I'll put this Jurguson down as securi-
ty," gravely added the third, as he pulled
out the gold-washed cases of a watch
which answered him for a tobacco-box.
A peaceful smile stole over each face as
the strangers scrutinized each other. They
went in and got some more beverage and
returned to the depot, wondering how it
was that human nature is so unreliable

A Phantom Burglar.

The neighborhood of Charles and Null
berry streets was the scene of great excite
ment on Saturday night over the rumor
that there was a burglar in the grocery
store of Thomas, Reese & Son. Shortly
after Mr.. Reese had locked the doors ana
left for home, a citizen in passing was GER
tain that he saw through the plate glass
man moving about in the store, and he got
a boy to watch the place until the police
could be found. When the policeman ar
rived the presence of somebody was con-
firmed by the boy, who said he saw man
peeping at him from inside the store. A
telegraph messenger was dispatched to
Mr.. Reese to inform him of the circum-
stances and get the keys. In the absence
OF the messenger large crowd assembled
in front of the store, at least half of whom
distinctly saw the burglar moving about
the store, and by the time Mr.. Reese's two
sons arrived with the keys excitement had
reached its highest tension, and the pros
pect of having good look at live burg
lar was largely speculated upon. The
doors were opened and Capt. Jamison, the
two sons of Mr.. Reese, and two policemen
cautiously entered, leaving two policemen
to guard the door. The gas was turned
on and a careful search made behind
boxes, barrels and bags. Every nook and
Granny big enough TO hide rat was
closely inspected, but without finding any
burglar. The supposed burglar was an
optical delusion, caused by the reflection
from the lights in drug store on the op-
posite side of the street, which gave the
inside of Mr.. Reese's store the appearance
of being lighted up, and the figures seen
were the reflections Of passers-by on the
opposite sidewalk. -Balttnaore Sun.

THE will of the late millionaire, David
Snow, of Boston, contains suggestions or
value to his devisees and to the public
In the closing article of the testament he
says: 1T is my earnest desire and re-
quest that all my heirs this, Of course, is
more especially directed to the males)
should invest their means in the safe way,
and pursue some steady, permanent, legit-
innate business or employment with great
perseverance and industry, and success is
sure to crown their efforts in due time
This course is not only an honorable one,
but is almost always the most successful
and satisfactory in the long run whereas
dealing in stocks and engaging in uncer-
tain and rash speculations l regard as a
species of gambling at best, uere lottery,
and although sometimes pleasing and ex-
citing when the luck is good, still in the
main such course is generally very in
furious and demoralizing, and often ends
in ruin, both pecuniary and morally. 1t
is my hope and earnest desire that my
heirs will ever be honest, liberal, steady,
industrious, kind to the needy, and at
tend regularly some church, my choice
being, Of course, the Methodist, which has
been SO long dear to me. "-Hartfortl

Bad Effects Of Gas Flames.

OF all the So called Improvements which
have been effected from time to time in
the means by which we make ourselves
comfortable and render ourselves indcpen-
dent of the limitations which nature
would impose upon us, perhaps the intro
ductiOn of gas was hailed and has been
looked upon as among the greatest 1t
wants but little experience, however, Of
the manner in which people 1--we in towns
10 convince us that the reverse of this is
the Case, and that the pain and misery
which it has been the means OF intiicting
must far outweigh its advantages. Ii any
one doubts this, le: him examine his sen
sations in morning after having spent
the previous evening in close room blaz-
ing with gas, and compare them with
what he feels after having spent the cor
responding hours in the open air, or in a
fresh room moderately lighted with oil or
candles. There are but few people to
whom such experience would not show
that the effect of the gas was a feeling of
lassilude and depression, if not down
right headache; and if they were to repeat
the experiment, who would not suffer IL
general loss OF tone. Yet wherever gas is
to be procured this is precisely the misery
to which people subject themselves. In
nine out OF ten houses in the nciyhbor-
hood of towns, if one goes from the fresh
air into room in which the people are
sitting on winter evening, the first
breath is enough to suffUcate one, and yet
the people within the room are entirely
unconscious; they may be more or less
restless and depressed, but as this is their
normal state they do not recognize the
cause. In this way, 10 say nothing OF
what takes place in theaters and places OF
amusement, the evils which gas is an
swerable for are incalculable, though ii
they could be estimated they must far out
weigh the blessings which accrue from the
abundance and cheapness Of its light.
The fact is that the money cost OF the fuel
forms only one part of the expense of
light; there is the consumption of oxygen,
and in this gas is very extravagant; 50
that although We now obtain tenfold the
light in our rooms which we had before
the introduction of gas without any in
crease of expense in money we have 10 pay
for it by tenfold vitialion of the air.
Three or four gas flames consume as
much air as a moderate 1ire, yet who
would live in a room with a fire or even
pan OF charcoal without chimney.
Yet it is common thing to 20 into a
room in which three, four, or five gas
flames have been burning for hours with.
out either door or window having been
open; that the people who live in these
rooms escape the evil effects is not to be
supposed. The only thing is that they
have not sense or courage enough to trace
the effects to their cause. Rather than
give up their warmth and light they will
fully close their eyes to what follows.
When people inflict these miseries on
their friends, whether consciously or not,
they become positive nuisance and are
fit subjects to be dealt with by the sanitary
inspector. To dine with them is q punish
ment: headache is sure to follow, how
ever abstemious one may be.-Nature.

Taylor's last volume there a poem en-

castle of Friedcnstein. Among the re-
tainers of this castle was the ducal hunts

This lad saw with rising indignation
that all were slaves and towards before
the one great man, Napoleon. His young
blood was fired, and he swore to free tho
land OF its conqueror. Upon one life
hung all this shame and degradation.

out and caught now-bird, which she
laid on his bed beside him, and went out
to look for another, but was unsuccessful.

vocalist, clever danseuse, and very pref
ty girl, met with tragic death in Helena,
Montana, the other day. She was stand
ing against tie board while an actor was
showing his dexterity in hedging her in
by hurting knives into the board. Six
knives had been stuck beneath each arm,
just above each shoulder, and each side OF
the head. One more waited to be planted

to die on the stage. The actor is under
arrest"
-Eberhard Beilman, an old German,
who for fifteen years past has lived by
himself in a lonely place, near Roseville,
Pa, was visited not long since by three
masked robbers, who forced him by the
most cruel tortures to tell them the where
abouts of certain sums of money, of which
they robbed him. When discovered, the
old German was bound down in a heavy
arm chair, with a BEDFORD or clothes
line, and cloth was tied over his mouth.
The room smelled strongly of smoke and
kerosene, and burned remnants of paper,
rags and straw were strewed about the
floor. Under the old mans chair the floor
was burned nearly through, and the legs
charred, showing that fire had been
built beneath it. The villains had CON-
PEELED the old man to reveal the where
abouts Of his money by building fires I'M
der him. They secured over $4,000.
