TheIndian and the Telephone.

An amusing application of the WON
ders of the telephone as an assistant de-
tective of crime comes from Julian, Cal.
Several horses were recently stolen in that
neighbOrhOod, and suspicion fell upon a
certain Indian as the thief. Some one
having introduced a telephone up there,
the same was being exhibited, when it
occurred to the owner of the stolen horses
to get the Indian to come in and hear
the Great Spirit" talk. The Indian
took one of the cups and was thrilled
with establishment at being apparently
so near the Great Keeper of the happy
hunting grounds. After some little
time spent in wOnderment, the Indian
was solemnly commanded by the Great
Spirit to give up those stolen hOrsesw
Dropping the cup as if he had been shot,
the Indian Immediately confessed to hav-
ing stolen the horses, and tremblingly
promised, if his life was spared, he would
restore the ''caballOS" at once, and he
did so.

His acres are so few that he ploughs them very

IT'S his own hands that turn the sod, tits his

He has place for everything, and everything

The rich aren't always happy, nor free from

A Brilliant Diamond isobber.
rom the London Telegraph.


One of the cleyerest diamond rObberies
of modern times is reported in tone of
odd cOmplacency by the leading journals
of st. Petersburg. About fortnight ago
a handsome equipage drew up at the
door of the first jeweler of the Russian
capital. Alighting from the carriage,
an elegantly dressed and remarkable
pretty young lady entered the shop and
requested that some parures of brliiantS
might be shown to her. Several costly
sets were forthwith submitted for in
spectiOn, and, after some hesitation, she
selected ariyiere and pendants valued at
10000 rubles, and stating that she was
the wife of an eminent mad-dOctOr,
whose name is household word in ST.
Petersburg, requested the proprietor of
the establishment to accompany her
home with the jewels, in order to settle
finally with her husband about their
price. The jeweler packed up his
diamonds and got into the carriage with
his fair customer. Presently they arriv-
ed at large house, and was received at
the porte cOchere by Suisse in splendid
livery, who conducted them UP a bril-
liantly lighted staircase into richly
furnished drawing room, i'll which the
lady begged her companion to take
seat, and, jewel-case in hand, proceeded
to summon ''her husband" Entering
the doctors cOnsultatiOn-rOOm in an ap-
parent state of uncomfortable agitation,
she informed the latter that she had
brought her unfortunate spouse to visit
him in the hope that he would under
take to cure him of the strange mono
mania under which he has labOred for
some time past. MY afflicted husband"
she said, lis wealthy landed proprietor
from A, in the government of Minsk;
he is quiet and harmless, but has
diamonds on the brain. He will talk of
nothing else, poor fellow! Will you see
him? I have left him in your drawing
room, and am much too nervous to be
present while your diagnose his case.
Might [. therefore, ask you to accom-
pany me to my carrirge before you go to
him? 1t will be such relief to me
to !leaYe him in your care" Her in
geniOus device was crowned with sue
cess. She drove off with the diamonds;
an interview between the doctor and the
jeweler fully confirmed her statement
with respect to the latter's alleged
mOnOmania, and resulted in his being
placed under bodily restraint, from which
he was only rescued three days later by
one of his partners, who succeeded, with
the assistance of the police, in tracking
him to DR.. V-f's renowned private
lunatic asylum. No trace has yet been
discovered of the gifted lady who accom-
plished this, in every sense Of the word,
brilliant" coupe.

was captured which had on one of its
feet steel trap of a peculiar pattern
that had been carried away from Mr..
Traughber's farm five years ago. The
trap had been set for buzzards, and it is
believed that it was carried around for
five years by this identical bird.

"EwO Majority"

No, don't mean exactly to assert that
Republicans are any more honest, as a
rule, than Democrats" said Republican
nj. C. from Nebraska during a heated
political discussion in the Baldwin read
ing room the other night, Il would like
to relate little incident of my own per-
sOnal canvass that struck me with much
force. Just after my nomination took
a careful census of my district, which is
small ne,and was surprised to dis
cover that the election would surely re-
suit in tie vote, there being an exactly
equal number of Democrats and Repub-
licans to man. Well, the day before
election an old farmer who lived near
me was passing through some timber.
carrying a lot of poisoned meat and
bread intended for troublesome fox
which had been depicting his chicken
house, when two rascalS jumped out of
the bushes, knocked the old man down.
and, proceeded to rob him. While they
were so engaged it occurred to the farm
er to beg them very piteOus to spare his
lunch, as he had eaten nothing all day.
They Immediately sat down and ate the
meat and bread before his face. laugh
ing loudly at the joke. In ten minutes
they were stupefed, and when the old
man was released, few hours later, the
robbers were both dead"
"Well, | don't see what that's got to do
with the subject" said one of the disput-
ants.
"Just this: The next day l was elect

In prison in New Bedford, Mass, there
now is a man whom we shall call Jim,
and who is prisoner on life sentence.
UptO last spring he was regarded as des-
perate, dangerous man, ready for rebel
lion at any hour. He planned general
outbreak and was given away. by one of
the conspiratOrs. He plotted a general
mutiny of rebelliOn; and was again be-
trayed. He then kept his own counsel,
and, while never refusing to obey orders,
he Obeyed them like man who only
needed backing to make him refuse. One
day in June party of strangers came
to the institution. One was an old gen.
tleman, the others ladies, and two of the
ladies had small children. The guide
took one of the children on his arm and
the other walked until the party began
climbing the stairs. Jim was working
near by, sulky and mOrOSe as ever, when
the guide said to him: Jim, won't YOU
help that little girl up stairs?" The
convict heSitated, a sc0wl ON his face,
and the little girl held her hands out to
him and said: "If you will [ guess I'll
kiss you" His scOwl vanished in an in
slant, and he lifted the child as tenderly
as father. Half way up the stairs she
kissed him. At the head of the stairs
she said: snow you've got to kiss me
too" He blushed like woman, looked
into her innocent face, and then kissed
her cheek; and before he reached the foot
of the stairs again the man had tears in
his eyes. Ever since that day he has
been changed man, and no one in the
place gives less trouble. Maybe i'm his
far away western home he has a little
Katie of his own. No one knows, for he
never reveals his inner life; but the
change so quickly wrought by child
proves that he has heart, and gives
hope that he may fOrsake his evil ways.
