Through Friendship.

good many years ago cashier took a
little lad from neighboring poorhouse,
and when the boy had become youth he
was given position in the bank of which
his patron was practically the head. Late,
the cashier stole more than $4,000 from
the bank. Exposure YVES threatened every
day, and the guilty officer, in a period of
depression, confessed to the youth that he
proposed to kill himself. Young Ray, the
protege, was smitten with horror, as he
thought of the terrible turn in affairs, but
having weighed the matter, the next day
he threw himself into the breach. He suQ-
gested, and the cashier eagerly accepted
the suggestion, that he should fasten the
guilt upon himself and abscond, thus leav-
ing his patron honest in the worlds eyes,
though blackened in his own. What the
public heard Of the Westport robbery was
that bank clerk named Ray had stolen
$4,000.
Detectives found several clues, but not
until years afterwards was the secret dis
closed. One of the detectives en-
ployed in the case came up
with Ray under still more roman
tic circumstances. The detective &C
cording to his "reminiscences published
last week in San Francisco paper, was
called recently to q Western city to ferret
out the persons who had robbed private
house of 200 gold eagles. The only man
under arrest was one Henry Martin. AS
soon as the detective saw Martin the form
er said: You are the Dallas Ray, who
robbed the Westport bank" Ray then
told the true story of the robbery, and the
story has been verified since. Ray claimed
that he was innocent of the gold eagle
burglary and asked the detective
to take a note to his sweetheart, Miss
Morse. When the latter heard OF her
lovers predicament she threw her
whole soul into obtaining proof of his in
nocence. She went to the house where the
robbery had been committed. Having
asked if the burglar had left anything in
his fight, she was given a handkerchief that
had been dropped by the intruder. She
put the handkerchief to her nose and ex-
claimed: "Find the thief who uses this
perfume (naming the peculiar brandy and
you will find your eagles" It was found
that only one drug store in the city sold
that kind of perfumery, and that only one
bottle had been bought within the pre-
ceding month. Need it be added that the
purchaser was traced, the eagles regained
and the lovers married?

A Perfect Cap OF Coffee.

Coffee is the fine issue of Eastern

One recognizes, on entering, the sound
of the coffee mortar; for IN every prop

the coffee is not ground, but pounded

provided and pounded the moment it
is needed. And no one who has not
drank it there and thus can presume to
Judge of the beverage.
In England, we roast it until it is
black, grind it as we would cattle food,
boiling it like malt for beer, and, when
we drink the bitter and unaromatic
fluid which remains, say We have taken
our coffee. The Eastern coffee drinker
knows all the grades of berry and prep

A Confidence Dodge Played on the West
ern Coast.

Of the many tricks of those who
live by their wits to take in the unwary,
the "gold nugget pin dodge" is the most
successful. The oft-practiced game was
played upon a citizen who has often
prided himself as being "no fool"
As he was passing the Baldwin Hotel,
he saw a seedy, semi-respectable-looking
party, who walking few steps ahead
of him, stop, and, STOPPING, appear to
pick up something bright, which, when
held up to the light, was seen by the
citizen to be nugget pin, evidently
solid gold, and weighing fully an ounce.

overioyed stranger to the citizen. as he
gleefully held it up for the latter's in

continued he, and it's a wind-fall to
me, for I'm dead broke. I wish I could
sell it"
"What do you want for it, " asked the
unsuspecting victim, who thought he
scented a chance to turn an honest pen
ny by a neat business.
well, don't know what it's worth.
I wish there was a pawnshop open.
Give me ten dollars and you can have
it,"
"Ten dollars for a $50 nugget; too
much" thought the victim, and
then Cant do it." remarked he aloud.
swell, 1 am hard up. Now, what
will you give?" persevered the stranger,
who appeared to hesitate to take less.
The shrewd citizen finally secured the
pin for $3.50, only to find when he had
the purchase examined that it was a
good imitation of gold, but being only
made of brass, it was not worth as much
as he paid for it by $40. The victim
has cut another eye-tooth, and now de-
clares that he would not buy a gold
mine at any price from a stranger

Bill Jones' Catapnlt.

Our fellow.citizen, Bill Jones--so
called-was one among the large crowd
that attended the Coup circus few
weeks ago in this city. The feature
that attracted Mr.. Jones attention more
than anything else was the wonderful
catapult the flying machine-and the
daring Lu Lu. The catapult is Won
derful machine, and is so constructed
that, by the agency of large number
of rubber cords, it will throw man
a great ways into the air, giving him
several revolutions before alighting.
This trick excited the imitativeness OF
MIR. Jones, aud he told Johnny Doe
and Dick Roe in confidence that he
could fix up machine that would fling
him as far as the catapult did Lu Lu,
and small wager was put up to stlmu-
late Jones in the undertaking.
Now, be it known, Mr.. Jones is the
man who has been run over by freight
train. and 2 40 trotter in full tilt
knocked him within an acre OF the fur
thest bank of the dark river, and the
hard side of brick on another occasion
came near taking the half of his head
off, vet, being unbaffled, he built a cat
apuit of his own devising. The ma
chine was easily constructed, being
made of two good sized hickory sap
lings, bent down and cut off about
fifteen feet from the earth. Across
these a plank was fastened, upon which
the would-be Lu Lu was to lay himself
At about the distance he imagined he
would fall large lot of hay was placed
so as to make the descent easy.

ting himself in position IN way that
would have excited the envy of Lu Lu,
the original, "when I say ready cut the
cord and turn it loose" Everything
was arranged and the command given.
Dick clipped the cord, and Jones went
up as if he had been shot from 200
pound gun, and Johnny Doe says he
went up as high as the weather-cock on
the Court House steeple. He passed
forty feet beyond the hay pile, and fell
in close proximity to big stump. The
only injury received by MIR. Jones was
