1t seems that some shrewd American swim
dler went to Europe, and meeting party of
Swedes en- route for a seaport to take passage
for the United States, got them to give him
their gold in exchange for $4,000 in counter
felt national bank notes. SO well executed
were these counterfeits that the Swedes paid
their passage the other day from New York
to Pittsburg with them, and 1t was not until
the day after their departure from New York
that the railroad agent discovered that the
notes were not good, and only found it out
then when he presented them at bank. One
OF the notes-a $50 note on the National
Broadway Bank, New York-has been sent to
the Secret Service Bureau at Washington,
and it is said to be wonderfully well ex-
ecuted. .......@.. .

The managers of the Connecticut Western
Railroad Company, in their annual report,
dwell Npon the Tarifrvile bridge disaster, In
January last, when thirteen persons were
killed about forty wounded and two engines
and three cars badly wrecked, as one OF the
worst drawbacks Of the year. In addition to
the loss on rolling stock and bridge the COM
pany was threatened with suits for heavy
damages, which, if successful, would have
Swamped 1t financially. One suit for $4,000
was settled for $500, and other smaller ones
for proportionatc amounts; smaller the
managers say, than they felt to be justly due.
yet quite as large as the company, which is
far from prosperous, could afford to pay. 1t
is estimated that the entire number of claims
for damages growing out of the disaster will
be settled for about $4,000.
The Syndicate up to Thursday had sold
$50 600 900 of the Az per cents This leaves
only 81 900, 900 more to be disposed of in this
country. The S1o0Oo,OOo sent to Europe some
time ago will be taken care of by the Roths-
childs. According to the best accounts, the
Syndicate have determined to take the re-
naming $l5 00O, 900 Of their contract and are
delaying the final subscription in form only
until the arrangements for placing the entire
loan are complete. The day before the Syn
dictate advanced the price of the AIS last week
a single subscription OF 600 was re-
ceived from the Nevada Bank Only one-tifth
of the A Is sold by the Syndicate have been
taken in Europe.

MYSTERIOUS ARREST.

crat of the Occasion.

Marshal McLaren Assumes to be the Auto
crat of the Occasion.
Albert Schultz, Uuited States prisoner, was
landed in Jail last evening, his name and COM
mitment not being registered. The turnkey
avowed that United States Marshal McLaren
had given distinct and positive orders that no
United States prisoner must be allowed to be
interviewed by reporters. and it was with
great difficulty that the GLOBE representative
obtained permission to enter the Jail
in order to converse with the prisoner. The
marshal was not seen last evening, but, if his
directions are such as were represented, he
must be vastly mistaken to think that mem
bers of the GLOBE staff are to be prevented
from gaining the news by any such autocratic
com mands.
The prisoners story, as told through the bars,
was extremely thin and unsatisfactory, the
man evidently being determined to hide
The truth. He said, in substance.
that he had car load of cattle at the Post side
track stock yards, where he was arrested, but
did not know the officers name who secured
him. He was conveying the cattle to Clear
| water, Wis, and felt considerable anxiety as to
the welfare of the animals. Some time ago,
| the prisoner had sold some cattle-dealing
| therein being his business-to butcher in
Minneapolis named Henry Heipler, concerning
which there had been some diff culty as to paw
| ment. The prisoner had lately written a lette,
to Heppler, in which he had made use of some
vulgar expressions, and he claimed he had been
arrested on that account merely.
That's the prisoners story. and is altogether
too shadowy for credence, being simply given

One source of Kearney's notoriety is his
monumental cheek. That fellow going
about the country as the professed enemy of
law and order-a disorganizer by profession
should have the effrontery to force himself
into an audience with the person occupying
the Presidential Office, supposed to DO the
symbol of law in it's highest degree, is an
anomaly. In no other country would such
insolence be tolerated, and it is quite prob

the practical exercise of that self-sacrifcine
charity which makes the whole world kin
the g age leaves the pulpit far behind, and
stands out as bright and shining example
of brotherly charity which the church would
do well to initiate. In every city in the land
the dramatic combinations have been fore
most in contributing to the assistance Of
the suffering. Entertainments for the pur-
pose have been given, the artists giving
their services and the managers their houses
free of charge, and when the balance comes
to'be struck it will be found that the dra-
matte profession will lead all others in the
amount of their contributions to the good
cause.
It is the duty of the churches,
which profess to be guided by the
precepts of the Savior, to see that they
are not behind in the great work of human
ity. The emergency calls for deeds, not
words; for money, not sympathy. The
stricken people of the South call for food
and nurses, and to obtain them money must
be had. It will not do for the churches to
distribute tracts and sermons in the hos
pitfalls. The dying call for bread; will you
give them stone2 To save life by tender
ministrations and healthful sustenance is
far more important work than to seek to
spread any particular creed or religion, and
the charity that gives to the sick palatable
dish or tender nurse will meet the divine
approval far more than the most earnest ex-
hortations of the preacher or the most
lavish distribution of religious tracts. The
church should not have it said that the
theatrical people of the land, that the Ma
sonic or the Odd Fellow associations, lead
them in works of charity. Nor should they
despise or lightly regard the noble deeds of
these people. but should remember that
Jesus said to all men-not to his professed
followers alone: "Inasmuch as ye have done
it unto the least of these my brethren, ye have
done it unto me-" All men are brethren of
Christ, and he who most completely fulfills
this injunction will find the greatest favor
in his sight.

THE NEED or CHARITY,

Verify, say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have
done it unto the least OF these my brethren,
ye have done it unto me.-MArrHEw xxv:4O.
The injunction to do good, to be charita-
bic, is one of the most frequent in the New
Testament. It is the foundation stone of
the gospel of Christ-the most notable point
of disslmilarity between the new and the old
dispensations. The Messiah over and over
again taught that charity to mankind was
charity to God, and his disciples laid stress
upon the exercise of the same virtue, de-
claring that "charity covereth multitude of
Sins" 1t is the misfortune of the
church that the Importance of ohari-
~ to the true Christian life is
greatly moderated, and hence we find that
in the church are many of the most unchar-
liable of mortals. Stingy men appear to in
stinctively seek the church, for there they
consider themselves removed from the i'm
portunities of those who n, ed substantial as
Sistance either for themselves or others.
Although the church cannot be accused of
want of iberality in support of enterprises
intended to assist in the spread of denomi
national work, it can be charged justly with
being far behind other organizations in thai
broad charity which is so greatly needed in
these days; that charity which seeks out the
distressed wherever found that succors the
needy and places them in condition above
want.
In the present emergency, when larg'
section of our country is devastated b.
o loathsome epidemic, and people ar
dying by hundreds daily for wan
of food and care, it is creditable t.
humanity that SO much is being done to allie
viate the distress. The Masonic organization
Ill over the country have, with that distingu
ing charity which Is a cardinal tenet of tn
order, sent thousands upon thousands @
dollars to the stricken cities; the Odd Eel
