Guileless Innocence and Jack Pots.

There was party of Milwaukeears
out in Iowa shooting chickens, and they
made their headquarters at little Iowa
town, where their special car was side
tracked, and where the visitors became
great favorites for their generosity and
good natures5q Their evenings were
largely spent in,rthe perusal of the re-
vised edition of Hoyle, and they had
many discussion over that chapter OF
the book of Poker, which in the re-
vision makes straight flush an inspira-
ton which knocks the everlasting spots
out of full hand. There was O very
deserving, pious old lady living in the
town who was poor, and to make up q
purse for her the boys decided that
every time they achieved jack pot the
winner should chip in quarter for the
old lady. During the week the Jackpot
fund acquired great proportions, and
when they came to leave a pious young
man Of the party was detailed to deliver
the money to the good old lady, which
he did. He left her the money with no
explanation except a card. on which
was written the legend, "From Jack
Pot" The good old soul took the money
with many thanks. and asked the young
man if his name was MIR. Pott. He said
that it was not his name, and on being
pressed to tell something of the good
Mr.. Pott. he said it was the earnest
desire of the donor to remain 1ncog. i,
and, pressing the old lady's wrinkled
hand, he went away with tear in his
sunburnt eye and another coursing down
the side of his nose where the skin had
peeled of, and left the old lady shower
ing Heavens choicest blessings down
on the head Of the good and pious Mr..
j. Pot. She insisted to the citizens
there that Mr.. Pot must be a banker,
or a wheat dealer, or railroad man,
ard claims that if she does not meet her
benefactor on earth she is sure she shall
meet him in heaven. Sun.

iiEtectYic Clocks,

At meeting of the Institute Of Tech
nology, in Boston, last Thursday, recent
inventions in electric clocks were ex-
planned of unusual interest in the field of
scientific mechanism. The clock is worked
by an electromagnetic, and also. gravity
motions of some of the parts. Standard
time is communicated SO as to regulate
the mechanism once an hour. The clock
works automatically, merely requiring
winding once week. It Is so
arranged as to suspend the continuous
signals on Sunday. but another connec-
ton continues the action on that day. The
clock can be made to strike any rnnlber
OF strokes in any order desired, so that the
first and second starting signals of trains
are infallibly given. Whenever the time
tables are changed the clock is adjusted to
them by simply changing the pins. Week
day and Sunday time tables are followed
and signalea, both being accom- plished
without touching the clock. Signals are
given on the open circuit and exactly on
the instant desired. The invention has
been successfully used on the Boston Sc
Albany and the New York & New England
stations.

Cheap NobiE;ty.

The titles of baron" and s'baronness''
are cheap in Brazil. They cost about $500
each, and can be purchased by any native
Fathers who send their Sons to school in
England or the United States-a few are
able to afford this advantage-commonly
purchase titles for their young men before
sending them abroad, in the hope of their
being able to ''catch'' some blonde and con.
fiding heiress of those wintery clines. An
English young lady recently appeared in
Rio Janeiro in quest of nobleman hus-
band, whom she had met in London at one
of the receptions given by the Brazilian
minister. She had given him her legacy
of 5000, and he had fed. She was much
surprised to learn at Rio that her absent
lord, the baron. was nothing more than a
journeymen barber, who had bought his
nobility.

Il $3,O00,000 Uar shin,

The construction of ore of the largest
ironclads yet built, the Benbow. twin
screw, steel armor-plated barbette ship,
has been intrusted by the admiralty to
the Thames Iron company, Blackwell.
The vessel is to be of 10000 tons, and is to
have engines of 1900 horse power, work
ing up to, under forced blast, $500 horse
power. She is intended to mount four
sixiy-ton guns, but ultimately it is likely
she will carry guns of d much heavier cali
Der. The cost of the vessel, hull and engines
will amount, before she leaves the con-
tractors premises, to close upon $780,
600 (S3,0G0,oOo). A similar vessel, the
Camperdown, was commenced short time
back at the Royal dockyard, Portsmouth,
and it will be interesting to note the pro-
gress made in the building of the two ships
and their comparative cost when finished.

LocKERBIE, Scott, Nov. 10, 18S2.-It may
be recollected that on the death of Mr.. A.
T. Stewart, of New York, few years ago,
the heirs of the major portion of his estate
were advertised for. These heirs were be-
lieved to be residents in Scotland. Although
several parties of the name of Stewart
made inquiries into the matter, no one came
forward to prove his relationship to the de-
ceased millionaire. At the time of his de ath
Mr.. Stewards fortune was stated at $685.
100000, or roundly about e17,OOO,OOC
British money. One-third of that sum
lace department of his business, but the
remainder has lain unclaimed. Shortly
after his death native of Dumfriesshire
Scotland, who is now, and had then been
for considerable period resident in the
United States of America, wrote nome to
his friends in Dumfriesshire regarding the
deceased's fortune. This Scotchman was
also named A. 7. Stewart, and being struck
with the first part of the name as being
one common among his own friends, sug
gested to his relatives in Scotland that
some steps should be taken with view Of
ascertaining whether they were related to
the New York millionaire.
The matter was. it seems, talked over
bat although a number of Stewards resi-
dent In Dnmfriesshire were aware that q
cousin named a. Z. Stewart had gone to
the United States some forty years before
that time nothing was done. the idea be-
ing that it could not be the same party. A.
L. Stewart continued to ask his friends in
Scotland, and in particular his brother
Andrew Stewart, farmer. Muirhousehead.
Lockerbie, Dumfriesshire. to send him ali
particulars of their friends during the
previous eighty or ninety years. His re-
quests came to be treated iatterly very
much in the light of jokes. Some months
ago, however, the legal authorities in New
York state who had charge of the bal
ance Of A. T. Stewards wealth.came across
certain facts that led them to communicate
with Dumfries solicitor and to request
him to endeavor to trace out the million
aires relatives. After much search and
by carefully examining the tombstones
in various chufchyards throughout Dunn
friesshire the solicitor found out that
Andrew Stewart, farmer, Muirhousehead,
was one of the parties he was seeking
for. When this was discovered it was an
easy task to find out the other relatives.
In due time the necessary proofs of the
connection between the late A. T. Stewart.
of New York, and seventeen persons, in
Guiding A. T. Stewart in the States and
Andrew Stewart, Muirhousehead,
were produced and forwarded to
the legal authorities of New
York. These seventeen persons are all
cousins of the deceased A. 7. Stewart
Word has just been received that the
proofs of their claims are quite satisfac-
tory to the legal authorities in New York.

TESTIMONIAL OF ESTEEM.

Edgar Il. Nash as Presented " tie M Eys-

-issOri0tcs.
About two weeks since the GLOBE made
mention of the fact that Washburn had
decapitated the official head. of Ed. Nash
through the instrumentality of his tool.
Postmaster Laraway. It was all because
Mr.. Nash refused to lend his
voice and influence in support Of
Washburn during the recent congressior-
al campaign. against the dictates of his
conscience. Mr.. Nash was fully aware of
his peril, SO far as his official position was
concerned, to which he was subiecting
himself by honestly opposing the election
of Wasnburn, knowing, as he did, the dis
position of Washburn to stab any man in
the back IF he could do so throu,g III others)
who should not vote for him.
Yesterday Mr.. Nash's dismissal from the
postoffice went into effect. He was busiIy
engaged in turning over affairs to Mr..
Barlow, his successor,when friendly hand
was laid upon his shoulder. Turning
around his surprised eyes fell upon the
full corps of postotfice employees
as they stood smiling before him. Mr..
George Plummcr had been chosen master
of ceremonies. He stepped to the front.
bearing in his hand an elegant and heavy
gold headed cane, which he presented to the
now dumbfounded comrade who was lust
about to be turned out, in few neat and
appropriate words. Mr.. Nash was so over.
come that he could only respond with
much effort. The cane had been appro-
prlately inscribed and is handsome af-
fair.
It's needless to add, that although in
the postoffice, and aware of the ceremo.
MES which were taking place, Washburn's
postmaster took no part in the presenta-
ton.
Mr.. Nash will leave this week for Chica-
go, where he may engage in business. lie
will take with him the we'll wishes of a
thousand and one warm friends and per-
sonal admirers.

BEFORE, however, paying away the balance
OF Mr.. Stewards wealth it mas to be ascer-
famed whether there are any relatives of
MI. Stewart on the maternal side-ail the
otewarts being relatives on the fathers
slde-alive. Mr.. A. 7. Stewards father
was married in 1898 at Dalmellington. in
Ayrshire, Scotland, to a Miss Hunter.
Should any cousins of the late A. T. Stew
art on her side be alive they will share
1'a'1 pdssW in the balance of her sons
, fortune.
In regard to the uncertainty that has ex-
listed concerning A. T. Stewards relatives,
1t Is explained that he had reasons for de-
string not to let them know Of his exist
ence. When young man he was in bust
ness in the county town. of Dumfries as a
warehouseman. At that time goods we're
only conveyed to Scotland from distant
places in England by ships. and consid-
cradle fleet of vessels sailed between DUN
tries and Liyesnc,l \. T. Stewart found
II wolid be of advantage to own a vessel TO
carry h:sgocds from Liverpool to Dunn
tries. Aided by>several relatives, of whom
the father Of the ADORE named Andrew
Stewart was one. he. parchssed
a vessel. In this vessel he fre
quently himself visited Liverpool, where
he had an uncle, also called Andrew Thorn
son Stewart, engaged in business as
warehouseman. Nearly fifty years ago
this uncle found it advisable for the sake
of his health to seek rest in his native
Dumfriesshire for a short period. Before
doing so he arranged for his nephew and
namesake to take charge of the business
during what was intended to be short
absence. A. Z. Stewart, ST., however, while
journeying by mail coach to his brothers
residence in the parish of
tombstone, Dumfriesshire, encoun-
tered a severe snow storm and
died from the effects of the severity of the
weather upon his enfeebled frame. His
nephew continued to carry on the
Liverpool business, but does not seem to
have been in the habit of communicate
ing with his friends in rDumfriesshire.
About two years after his uncle's death he
suddenly presented himself at the abode of
bis uncle in Dumfriesshire 1.-THE father of
Andrew Stewart) and demanded that he
should dispose of his right to the Liver
pool and Dumfriesshire trading vessel for
what was considered less than ene-twen-
tieth of its value. Hts uncle refused to
oomPAy. a. /. OteWarI leIt the d1S-
trict for Liverpool, and the
next heard of him was that he had by
some means disposed of the vessel and
Liverpool business and departed to
America without accounting with his
friends. No further certain tidings of
him ever reached his relatives until re-
Gently, as already stated.
Mr.. EILToN's DENIAL.
In response to the inquiry of Herald
reporter as to what truth there was in the
story that genuine heirs to the estate of
the late A. T. Stewart had been discovered
in Dumfriesshire, Scotland, Mrs. Henry
Hilton said yesterday that she knew moth
ing more about the matter. Mr.. Hilton's
representative said that there was not q

The Suicide of an atheist.


David Evans, who lived near Wilkes
barre, Pa, committed suicide last Wednes-
day night. He placed a revolver in his
mouth and fired three shots. It appears
that Evans had been working for a long
time on perpetual motion machine, for
the last two years doing nothing else. He
was upward of seventy years old, and
single. He had devoted great part of
his life to the construction of machinery of
different kinds, and his little room was
filled with various models, some of them
specimens of the most excellent work
manship, but of no practical utility. He
left the following letter for Mrs. Davis,
to whom he gave all he had:
I do sincerely prohibit any and all of the
reverend devils to babble and lie over nv
old body. Bury me in my old rags, Just
as am now. Sell that coat of mine or
give it to whomsoever you please. die
in my atheistical faith as fearlessly as the
heather dieth in his faith of his existence.
l believe not in conscious existence nor
sensitiveness after death. It is the end,
the final end, of man, as we'll as tn, COM
mon animals. Ye will judge this and
blame it; nevertheless it is truthful. /
considered and concluded that to commit
suicide would be the best thing that
could possibly do. I lam but eluding mis-
cries and pains. 1t is clear and evident
that am in the utmost poverty and dis
tress, having no health nor strength to be
slave any more. believe it prudent to
leave this tyrannical and oppressive world
and to'be a pauper no more. I owe no
person anything; therefore, what things
are here shall be yours, Mrs. Davis. It
would please me if they were of much
greater value. Farewell!
