Heavy Bank

Between six and nine o'clock Sunday morn
ing masked burglars entered the Manhattan
Savings Bank Building, corner of Broadway
and Bleecker-street, New York, and hand
cutting the %janitor, made him, under threat
of instant death, reveal the combination of
the safe to them, and deliver up the keys of
the bank. They riied the bank of pre-.
sumably a large amount of money, as
twenty tin boxes known to have contained
bills were found on the floor quite empty.
The building is a six-story one, the
bank occupying the ground floor, with
entrances on both Broadway and Blocker
streets. The officers report that the
bank was robbed eof securities to the
amount of $2,757, 200, of which $2,5O5, 200
were registered in the name of the institu-
ton, and are not negotiable, and $16S,OoO
are made payable to it, $4,000 are in cou.
pom bonds, and $11 900 in cash. For
the purpose of preventing loss to depositors
it was deemed advisable that no payments
be made without sixty days notice, as pro
vided by the bylaws of the institution.

HALIFAX Award.

Secretary Evarts has written a letter to
John Welsh, our Minister to England, in
which the question whether it shall be paid
is seriously considered. There are some
grievances that must be considered before
the money is turned over. The proviso at
tached to the appropriation leaves the mat
ter of payment discretionary with the Presi-
dent, and dependent upon the results of
the correspondence, which can hardly be
completed by the time fixed for the payment
on account Of pew complications which
have arisen, growing out of the attack
upon our fishermen off the coast of New.
foundland. 1t is held by many that a formal
Endorsement of the acts done by tine local
authorities in driving off our fishermen are
really equivalent to a decision by Great
Britain that the local laws of her colonies
may control the terms upon which our
ships can fish, and that these may over
ride the terms of the treaty. 1t is held
that these local laws virtually prohibit
American fishermen from enjoying the bene
fits which we are about to pay, and, there
fore, it is deemed exceedingly doubtful
whether payment will be made until more
satisfactory conclusions are reached than
seem to be promised under the pres ent
state of correspondence.

Tramnn seizinr a Train.

One hundred tramps took possession OF
a train at Como, Tenn, and ran it to suit
themselves, after busting the conductor and
other employees. The citizens turned out
en- masse with shot-guns and revolvers, and,
at Fulton, recaptured the train. The tramps
said they were driven from Cairo a short
time ago. Some of them are on their way
south to obtain work, and others, it is be.
lieved, to plumber and rob vacant houses of
yellow fever refugees in deserted towns.
On account of their conduct the people
were much incensed, and threatened to kill
them if they entered the towns, conse.
quently they tramped the railroad track in
fear of being killed.

HAD the witty Selden lived in our
day, and so near the divorce courts of
Indiana and Chicago, he would not have
written this paragraph: Marriage is
a desperate thing; the frogs in Esop
were extremely wise; they had a great
mind to some water, but they would not
leap into a well, because they could not
get out again" Marriage customs have
changed since the day when Selden
wrote that sentence. Marriage now re-
sembles climbing a hill; it is some labor
to reach the summit, perhaps; but, oh,
how easy it is to get down again when
you get tired of the positionl

while on his way to market. After being
stabbed the Alderman called loudly for
help, and Officer Cav and DR.. Fowler, who
happened to be in that neighborhood,

however, to tell where he resided, and the

Adopting Two Cubs,

Barnum's lioness, in the Central Park me.

"A male and female--on the ith instant.
-Four days later the lioness belonging to the
menagerie produced twins, also male and
female. Then Barnum's lioness, through
jcnlously or from some other cause, dropped
dead in her cage, and II became an anxious
question what was to bo done for her little or
phans. IL given to the other lioness there was
great danger that, instead Of nourishing them,
.hc might look upon them as q nourishmcnt
intended for L,rself This peril, however, was
not so great as bringing them up on the bottle,
and IL was decided to take the risk. The en-
rioyees handled the cubs freely, so as TO giyo
them, as the superintendent explained, the
'mell Of human body, aud then all four wero
iaken in u bunch and placed In the cage Of the
ioress. She was q mild hammered but not
obtuse beast. She smelled out her own cubs
in moment, and literally kicked the other
two out. The experiment was tried several
times, but without succrss, the lioness thrust
lug the strangers from her with her foot. At
last, after three hours Of persistent cndeavor,
she was induced to have compassion upon
them, aud the four cubs arc now being nursed
as though thcv were Of one family.
