A Lesson for Girls.

That was a wise father who, on
hearing his little daughter request
ing her brother to drive few nails
in the w0od-house for her, said he
would teach herlow to do it herself.
She was apt, and drove in all the
nails successfully. SO pleased was
she with her success thst she would
have set a double row around the
shed if her father had not conclud-
ed that these would answer for the
present. "There, that little lesson
helps to make you independent, my
girl" lie said. "Now | will teach
you some day how to catch and har,

Self-C Consciousness.

1t sometimes happens that the
people who are afflicted with it mis-
take their own symptoms, and mis-
call their own state. They think,
themselves, diffident, timid, deplore
their want of selt-possession even
and never dream that the trouble
lies in their Inability to forget
themselves.
"W hat courage you have !" said
one young lady to another. 81 could

replied her friend, smiling. sit
never occurred to me that any one
would notice my movements And
this is the whole secret. 1t is but a
nervous sense of our own conspie-
uousness which makes us so keenly
alive to the effects of our words and
acts. Ii we really belive that we
are unimportant-if We feel that
our fellow creatures have more en-.
crossing subjects of contemplation
than Ourselves-we shall hardly be
likely to suffer from any dread of
their criticisms. Besides, selt-con-
sciousness destroys independence

WoRKINGNES's BANK RoBnERY.-M
George l.. Walters, cashier of the Work
ingmen's Savings Bank, arrived home
from Wheeling this morning. He was
non.committal as TO bis trip, but says that
Detective Jerry Smith is not at present in
Wheeling. He says that it is only mat
ter Of n few days until the burglars will be
arrested, and signifed that the article in a
morning contemporary completely upset
his and the detectives plans for the cap
ture Of the criminals. He was in consult
alton with the Chief.ot.PoliCe and Mayor
for quite a time, but nothing definite
could be ascertaiued by the raparter re-
garding the present state OF affairs
Pittsburgh Leader.
1t has been well known to the reporters
and police OF this city fora week past that
an Allegheny detective was in the city
working up the bank robbery. 1t was
also known that Mr.. Walters, Cashier Of
the Bank, had paid flying visit to the
city within a few days past. For pruden.
tial reasons, however, the Wheeling press
said nothing about these circumstances;
while. on the contrary, the Pittsburgh
papers every day had some reference to
the presence OF detective in Wheeling,
although they could give no information
further than the mere statement that lie
was here. AS intimatel by Mr.. Walters,
the articles published In the Pittsburgh
papers were calculated to completely up
set his and the detectives plans for the
capture OF the criminals.
Last night, however, an important ar
rest was made, and we feel at liberty TO
make all the facts pertaining to the case
public. We have heard that the robbers
Of the Workingmen's Savings Bank got
away witha cool len thousand. However
that may be, the robbery created agood
deal OF talk in this part OF the country.
Bob Junkins, nightwa.chman in the Sec
ond Ward, lisa natural born detective, and
OF course heard all about the robbery. Bob
somehow or other got hold Of clue. and
undertook to work itup. He wrote 10 Allie
gheny, stating that he had spotted the
criminals, and Detective Jerry Smith
promptly came down to assist him in
working up the case. The parties were
well known TO both Bob and Smith, but
they decided to wait a few days and weave
a chain OF evidence about them which
would make them sure. So, although
several days passed by and nothing was
heard OF their actions, they were slowly
but surely fastening the guilt upon the
suspected parties.
Last night Junkins arrested Charles
Dali y, a son OF Tailor Daily, us one of the
bank robbers. Daily was arrested on The
eastern outskirts Of the city, where he is
said to have been in hiding for several
days past. Upon being taken into Custo.
dy, he consented to accompany Junkins
without reIuisilion, and they according
ly left late last night for West Alexander,
whence they will take the train to-day for
Pittsburgh. Junkins deserves u good
deal Of credit for his work in this case; he
is as keen as q bloodhound, and once on
the scent he is bound to grapple his man.
