A Maine grocer who had just Tex

in meeting that he had been a hard
sinner, cheating customers by adulter-
ating his goods, etc., but, being con-
verted, would repay any one he had
wronged. Late that night he was
awakened by a ring at his door-bell.
Looking out he saw a man. WHO
are you and what do you want?" he
asked. I'm Bill Jones. You said

had cheated. Give me that 500 you

BEGEMAN AND MONROE.
Something About Two DeSper-
ate CRIMINALS.

A telegram received Thursday from
Chief Counts of Little Rock, Arkan-
saw, saying that Charles Monroe had
received a sentence of four years and
Harry Begeman seven years. The
cause of the Discrepancy lies in the
fact that they asked a severance and
we're tried by different juries. Monroe
is decidedly the worst of the pair. He
was tried first. Big Nell Brady, otto
ledo, who pretends to be his wife, was
present in court when he was sen
fenced. Monroe remarked that he was
perfectly satisfied and is inclined to
laugh at Begeman, who was not so for.
tunate in gettinga sympathetic juryas
he was. Jim Reed, Lewis Gephart
and several names have been used by
Monroe as occasion required. He is
wanted at Toledo, Ohio for highway
robbery and also In Kentucky Tor an
express robbery. Detective Larry Ha.
zen OF Cincinnati sent photograph tC
Little Rock soon after Monroe was
taken back there from Memphis, which
was recognized as a good likeness. Ha.
Ken wrote that if the Little Rock au.
thorities had the original Of the picture
he sent they had better look out, as b.
would make an attempt to get away. A
night or two afterward he was discov
cred in the prison yard by a guard VIII,
captured him at the muzzle OF his pis
tot. The burglar had sawed in tWt
four bars of his cell door. Little o.
nothingis proven ofBegeman' history
Their photographs have been promised
Chief Davis for his gallery.

RaymOnd's Vacation Party No. Z
Passes Fast.

esterday's overland train fIom the
west was a very heavy one, being made
up Of thirteen cars, seven of which
were Pullman sleeping and drawing
room cars. This extra haul was occas-
Toned by the presence as passengers of
the second division of Raymond's va
cation excursion OH its return home.
There were eighty-one persons in the
party, with e. C. Harding, of Boston,
in charge, assisted by Rev. A. Z. Win
ship, of ~SomerYille, Mass, and L. S.
Bean, of Boston, as baggageman. The
party left Boston April 13 and departed
from San Francisco, homeward bound,
June l.
The route Travelled was the same as
that Of the first party, which has been
already mapped out. A LEADER rep
resentative enjoyed a pleasant little
chat with Mr.. Harding as the train
rolled down the hill toward Cheyenne.
The journey had been a very pleasant
one, unmarried by accident or illness to
any extent. Most of the party were
well-to.do New England people, who
had earned their own money and en-
joyed it. There was a small proportion
of young people, and intelligence was
much more abundant than beauty.
There was a scattering of passengers
as the train pulled up to the station
here, and Conductor Wrighter leaned
up against the southwest corner of the
hotel and held on to his sides as the
Misses F-h and several other young
ladies started out on the streets looking
for moss agates y
why, do you Giud them here ? ;
queried one.
"Oh, yes; this is Cheyenne; don't you
remember we read in the book how the
streets of Cheyenne were full of 'em? ,
The party returned shortly and shor'
of moss agates, of course.
The third party homeward bount
will follow a week later.

a correspondent, "Steinway," writes
to the Register in a very forcible style,
criticising the Browne and Conger bills,
which seek to credit certain officers OF
the army with the time spent in the
volunteer service, and take
from the beginning of sell
vice. "~Steinway" says: THE whole
scheme is lamentably absurd, and if
the scheme is successful (Which is
scarcely possible) the next thing in or
der will be for officers who came into
the regular army from the militia to
hunt up their old militia commissions
and howl for more rank"
