DARK Prospect FOR AN ALLEGED BANK
RoBBER.-Wm. Burke, who was arrested last
week in Buffalo, on suspicion of having stolen
railroad bonds from bank in Cleveland, Ohio.
was before the common pleas court in that city
yesterday, and ordered to be turned over to an
officer from New York state, where he is wanted
for q theft of bonds in Cohoes The Judge said
that if he was convicted in New York and
served out his sentence the fight would then be
as to whether Michigan or Ohio would claim
him on other charges. The sheriff and the New
York officer then started down stairs with
Burke. and just as they reached the street the
prisoner lodged under the officers arm and
made leap for liberty, but the sheriff was too
quick and caught him by the collar of his coat.
Burke is the man who, a short time ago, was
caught in the vault of the Savings bank of Bal
timOre, Gay and I'd streets.

Mistaking a Catamount for a Fox

On Thursday evening, the 9th instant, while
W. X. Heylman OF RalSton, was doing some
Woi near his fathers house, he heard two
foxes barking In reply TO q neighbor's dog,
that, and strike out for moonlight stroll, and
by the way call out his fathers dog. SO he
seized his rifle and stationed himself In the
edge OF the woods about where he thought
the providers would come. About five minutes
elapsed, when they were within a few rods of
him; but as 1t was quite dark and the brush
thick, he could not yet see them, although he
could hear them walk, and they were barking
al gleelul rate. Just at that instant he saw
as he supposed one OF the foxo9 coming
through the brush, in direct line for his rifle
MIR. Heylman was In the proper attitude for
shooting, and when the Quadruped was passing
within ten feet OF him, he fired at his victim
at random, as owing TO the darkness he could
not see the sights on his gun. The animal
gave few bounds and tumbled over against
dead, cooked the other barrel and prepared for
another victim, which continued his barking
AT that instant his dead beast recovered and
started Off. Mr.. Heylman let go the other bar
rel al him. without much effect. The animal
crawled into tree top, and Mr.. Heylman .in
after him. and here the battle began. The
catamount, as 1t proved to be, made at him,
and fortunately he had taken his gun with him
and used IL TO beat the animal Off. The fight
was lively Tor short time. but Mr.. Heylmaa
came cut victorious, though he says had It not
been that both hind legs were broken ne would
have gotten the worst OF 1t. HeylmaD said he
thought 1t strange that fox would fight like
that, and did not discover what he had killed
until he had taken 1t to the house. There he
threw 1t down In the yard, loaded his gun and
returned 70 the woods. His sister came out to
see the animal, and while looking at It it
seemed to gain new life and attacked Miss
Heylman. She took hammer handle and beat
lts Drains Out.-WattGnlspOrt Pa banner.

The dull roar OF the curling stones on the keen
ice Is accompanied by the rrenzled shouts of
the part1Sans as some shot of great moment
is being played. Respectable fathers Of fam

they were on hot griddleS and possessed by
demons. The stone delivered. or rather barely
cropped, from the strong arm OF Sandy the
smith, IS gliding forward on It's fatefui mission.
"Soop her up! scoop her up." ma, ma: let
abee! let abee!' The proolns are being flour
ished over the shapely brown boulder from
Inc Burnock Water, by fingers that
burn to lend its legs and direction. The
voice OF the skip dominates all: Leave alane,
ieave aiane, viii ye? She's a. there right
enough!' And suddenly, as the stone has
sklrted the very edge OF one OF the enemy's
surest guards, tremulous movement is TO be
detected In the handle. The crafty PLAYER.
WIN dexterouS turn OF the wrist has com.
mun1cated the hitherto imperceptible "slde. y
inc stone. In graceful parabola, curls gently
onward, takes an ''iEwickn off the inner edge OF
anotner, and circles in 10 lie "a pot-lfdv on the
very Tee. What yells OF applause and triumph
rend the air: SHIFT that II ye can, my lads?n
SHOUTS Bodencleuch, In friendly mockery:
while Dreepdaily chafes and RACES In Wild but
mpo,ent disgust. That great shot of the
smiths has decided the "end' and the game: for
In vain does the sch0Olmaster-With the laird
lOllow1ng to neutralize his play-try to break a
way to that winning stone through the ad-
vanced guards OF Bodencleuch.
