A Dangerous Counterfeit,

A man giving his name as William E.
Curtis, and representing himself as 6
Buffalo fruit dealer, entered SweenJ
& Brothers banking Office, corner Of
Ann and Nassau streets, New York, moi
long ago, and tried to purchase o s 1,00(
four per cent. treasury bond, offering 6
81, 900 greenback in payment. Mr..
Sweeny did not like the appearance o.
the note, and asked time to ascertain it,
ge%nuineness, which was freely accorded.
Tbs note was pronounced good at three
different banks, but not being entirely
satisfied, Mr. Sweeny went to the sub
treasury, where it was decided to be 6
counterfeit, and stamped accordingly
Capt. Sampson was notified, and he
took Curtis into custody and brought
him before United States commissioner
Deul. Curtis said he had come to New
York to buy fruit, and had drawn the
note from a Buffalo savings bank, where
he had q deposit of 81, 200. he averred
that he be believed the note to be good.
The commissioner was inclined to credit
his story, and let him 60 on his owl
recognizance for further examination.
The Counterfeit is an exceedingly good
one, the only apparent difference be-
tween it and a genuine note being the
fact that the lathe work has been
engraved by hand and j not 80 regular
as it should be. This can only be de-
tected on close examination.

Sheep Browsing above the Clouds.

Probably the largest and highest rock
in the known world is the South Dome
Of Yosemite. Standing at the fork of
tae upper valley, it rears itself, a solid
rocky reef, 5000 feet above the ground.
A more powerful hand than that of a
Titan has cut away the eastern half,
leaving q sheer precipice over a mile in
height. No man ever trod the top of
this dome until last year. Former yisi-
tors gazed in wonder at the spikes driven
into the rock by hardy spirits, who had
repeatedly endeavored to scale it The
shreds of rope dangling in the wind told
the story OF their failure. Last year,
however, after thousands of dollars were
spent, several persons found their way
to the top of the dome, and this summer
two sheep we're discovered browsing on
the hitherto inaccessible peak. Mrs. A.
J. Murphy, wife of q late hotel proprie-
tor in the valley, writes to a lady in New
York as follows:
John Anderson is building stairs up to
the top Of the South Dome. You can
go up now by holding on to a rope, but
it is quite a tiresome trip A few ladies
in the valley have made the ascent, and
I nm sorry [ did not attempt it. But
am one 81 the few who have zen the
sun rise on the top Of Clouds Rest, and
Its glory will never fade from my
memory.
Strange to say, two sheep found thei,
way to the top of the South Dome this
summer, a dam and her lamb. How
they eve got there is more than any one
can tell. They found bunch grass and
shoots to eat, but nc water-only the
dew that fell on the dome at night,
Anderson was going 10 carry them NJ
some water when I lett.

modest demand for tresses was Influenced
by a few elderly danes in need OF wigs,
the supply wa easily secured by agents
who bargained with the peasant maids Of
Brittany and Auvergne. Paris alone
would now consume all, and more than
all, of the available capillary crop in
France, and Marseilles. the present CEN

annually makes up into IS, 600 chlgnons.
"Dead hair has something of q sinis-
ter, sepulchral sound; but as without it
the cheap curls, fronts, and ehignons
could not be made at the price, it may
be comfortable to know that the original
owners of the raw material are, as likely
as not. alive and we'll. Rag-pickers value

How He Was Suited.

Says the Lewiston Me-, Journal: A
young man of meek appearance called at
a clothing store on Lisbon street, and
said: II would like a pair of pantaloons."
The trousers were produced, and the
meek customer pulled off his boots and
got into the biturcated apparel. He
seemed pleased. 81 would like to try
on q vest" Likewise a well-ftting vest
pleased the meek youth. "Had the
firm a good coat ?" A nice coat was
fitted to him. "And an o~vercoat?" He
was clothed in a very natty, overgar-
ment. AS it did not purport to fit very
we'll, the gentleman in waiting was asked
to- go and fin a garment a little larger.
The garment a little larger was brought
forward, but when it.came there was no
meek customer there. He had slid out
Of the door very noiselessly and slipped
into an alleyway, clad in the suit and
{ ~overooat of the clothing firm. He left
! his old clothes in exchange.

Zip's Deathbed.

~ never saw such a thing in my
life." said James Donohue, the night
watchman of the Central Park museum.
son Tuesday Zip, one of Mr.. Barnum's
monkeys, fell suddenly and dangerously
i'll. He was q great favorite with bis
companions-their leader in mischief.
Superintendent Conklin examined him,
and said he would die. We got q bed
of straw and cotton for him, and left
warm milk by his side"
Mr.. Donahue meditated briefly, as
| though picturing the scene in his. mind
and then said: eyes, in all my e1peti-
ence as a night Waterman among beasts,
I v saw such a thing in my life. At.
eleven o'clock I went to the cage.
Usually the monkeys at night sit huddled
together, sound asleep; but this time
they were all wide awake, sitting silent
and moveless, watching lips dying
agonies. Zip lay in a corner, sobbing
and moaning. Jack and Pete, the two
trick monkeys, were at his side. Jack
had lips head resting on his bosom,
while Pete every now and then dipped
his paw in the milk and wet lips lips.
Wasn't that stranger
The reporter assentea.
"But there's q stranger thing about
it yet" Mr.. Donohue continued; cat
midnight Zip died. Then came what
my partner Reilly, and Barnum's man,
say they never saw the like of. As Zip's
head fell limp in the arms OF Jack, he
gave a little low squeal, and Pete sprang
to his side. Pete looked at Zip, lifted
up one of his paws, tapped him gently
on the breast, put his ear to his heart,
raised his head, and then gave a shrill
squeal. Jack in answer dropped Zip
lust as naturally as O human being would
at the first intimation that the form he
held was dead. Pete was the first to re-
cover himself. Slowly he approached
Zip, examined him closely, raised him in
his arms, dropped him hard on the floor
of the cage, and, as Zip did not move,
sprang to the uppsrmost perch. Wasn't
that strange"
The reporter assented.
"Then sir" continued Mr.. Donohue,
"came the most extraordinary thing
ever witnessed in the park. The mon
keys set up the most piercing screams
The baby monkeys pressed close to their
mothers, and the females close to the
males. All chartered and chartered, and
pointed to poor Zip. Finally, Pete and
Jack, followed by all the others, sprang
to the bottom of the cage. They were
all silent now, moving slow, and in the
form of a circle they gradually came
nearer and nearer. Then, hugging close,
they stopped. All night long they re-
NAMED watching the body, and I never
saw q wake that could beat that one, for
earnestness and sympathy"
After a pause, Mr.. Donohue said,
"He'n be stuffed"
"Who 2" the reporter asked.
"Zip, of course" was the reply.
