inhabitants living in underground bur

WATCHING A DEFAULTER.
BY WILLIS GRIBBI.E.

No doubt ingenuity is the first rudi-
ment that combines with tact and energy
to make "a good detective. But once in
long stretch "good luck" is sure to gain
supremacy over those three virtues. At
all events, there is an episode On record
wherein luck not only gained the supre-
macy, but atoned for the absence of the
other three.
To be sure the case was not a compli-
Gated one. There was no mystery that
called for the keen instinct of an adept
at unravelling to ferret it out. Instead,
it was most simple chain of circumstan-
ces. One Phillip Brashear had been sus-
pected of appropriating the funds of his
employers, and while the firm was busy
summing up the total Of their losses, he
had decamped, carrying with him money
and bonds to the value of half a hundred
thousand. A futile search of the city and
environs followed; but to all appearances
the culprit vanished, leaving no traces
that might be followed up to the epoch
of his apprehension.
At least that was the popular verdict,
expressed by every one having special
interest in the affair. With the exception
of Mr.. Americus Biggerton, Chief Of the
United American Detective Service, whose
men all traced Brashear not only to the
place he adopted in his fight, butte the
house where even now he lay awaiting a
favorable opportunity to quit the country.
Mr.. Americas Biggerton was of him
self diplomat, who, though loving hon
esty and square dealing much, loved the
fabulous possession Of Midas more

hundred dollars, dead or alive was Of.
fered for the apprehension of Brashear
Mr.. Biggerton dilated his widespread
nostrils, and whispered he would await 8
higher fuctuation in the market of re-
ward.
So it happened that one afternoon, as
he sat coming over the entries made by
his head clerk, sliggins, in his "Docke1

Teach and Learn.

One man cannot thoroughly, safely,
and wisely conduct many experiments
a: the same time. Hence, it IS very
desirable for neighboring farmers to
help one another in this respect. So of
all classes engaged in productive pur-
suits. Ten men can, in one year, try a
number of theories that one man could
not put to the test in less than ten wears.
If one makes an experiment that proves
Improbable, it is his duty to let his
friends know it, that they may not suffer
by repeating it. If one possesses special
knowledge about varieties of articles of
produce, peculiarlties Of culture, methods
Of preserving or utilizing what is raised,
OF anything else of importance to success
and prosperity, he ought to he kind
enough to inform his neighbers, at least,
so that they may be wiser and more sue
cessful. In a certain community the
farming was unimproved, and, hence, un-
profitable. A progressive man of intelli-
gence and skill move from distant State,
introduced more advanced ideas, and
rapidly converted the poor land into a
fertile, profitable farm. His neighbors
were kindly enlightened, adopted his
wise example, and soon brought up the
whole community to much greater pros
perlty. Of course, the man who taught
and those who learned are much happier.
Let it be known that selfish monopoly of
useful information is suicidal as we'll as
ignoble and uncharitable; and that few
men are to be pitied more than those
who refuse to learn by the experience of
others.
To further these suggestions, it is re-
commenced that farmers, gardeners, fruit
culturists, etc, visit one another more
frequently, talk together more freely, pub
lish their experiments more carefully, and
in every legitimate way, try to teach
more and learn more.

An Old Rhode Island DiyorC4 Case.

Albany Law Review.
In 1865 the following case occurred in
Rhode Island Peter Tollman applied for
a divorce from his wife. The woman be-
ing brought before the assembly admit
ted the charge. The petition was grant
ed at once, and then the criminal, upon
her own confession, was arraigned for
sentence. The penalty was fine and a
whipping, and she was accordingly SEN
fenced, by the terms of the law to nav
e10 and to receive fifteen stripes at Ports
mouth on the ensuing Monday, and on
the following week another fifteen stripes
at Newport, and tobe imprisoned until
the sentence was fulfilled. Upon her pc
luton for mercy the court again examin-
ed her as to whether she intended to re-
turn to her husband. This she refused
to do upon any terms. Her petition was
denied and she was remanded for pun
lshment. The "benefcent whip failed
to reunite this once happy family.

SEPTEMBER.

The golden-rod is yellow;
The corn is turning brown;
The trees in apple orchards
With fruit are bending down.
The gentian's bluest fringes,
Are curling in the sun;
IN dusty pods the milkweed
Its hidden silk has spun.
The sedges tlauut their harvest
IN every shady nook;
ana asters by the brook-side
Make asters in the brook.
From dewy lanes at morning
The grapes sweet odors rise;
AZ noon the roads all tlutter
With yellow butterflies.
BY all these lovely tokens
September days are here,
with summers best of weather,
And autumn's best of cheer.
But none of all this beauty
Which floods the earth and air,
Is unto me the secret
Which makes September fair.
It's thing which remember;
To name it thrills me yet;
One day, Of one September,
never can forget.
