THE EMBEZZLTNG CASHIER.
Especial Telegram to the Globe.

CpSClaI TO the O1ODe.
New YORK, Jan. 13.-Cashier Shaw, of
the defunct Jersey City bank, was again
before Justice Stilsing this morning, after
spending the night in the city prison.
Ex-Judge Hoffman appeared for him and
asked to see the complaint on which his
client was arrested yesterday, the charge
of embezzlement and larceny being made
by Police Capt. Edmundson. Counsel
read the complaint carefully and laid
it down with cynical smile. AS
he was about addressing the court
the justice said: "Here is another
charge, Capt. Edmundson again being the
complainant. The prisoner is accused,
under section 157 Of the criminal act, of
making false statement under oath, in
that he falsely testified as to the banks
financial condition; in other words, the
crime charged is perjury.
Chow much bail will your honor de-
mand pending an examination? Judge
Hoffman asked. The motion for bail is
always IN order"
II fixed the amount yesterday" replied
the justice sat $4,000 on one charge, and
the question whether, now that there is an
additional criminal charge, the amount
should be increased, or, as circumstances
develop during an examination may be
reduced, is still open" Justice Stilsing
resused to take less than $4,000 bond,
saying that the public were intensely ex-
cited over the case. '"Then
am ready to go into an
examination,' said Judge Hoffman. The
justice replied the case should be laid over
until Monday morning, and the counsel
consented to the adjournment, although"
said he II am anxious to know what my
friend Capt. Edmundson knows about
banking"
It is almost certain that Cashier Shaw
will escape Indictment on the charge OF
embezzlement and larceny, for there is no
one to testify against him, all of the pre-
sumed directors refusing to DO SO. On the
charge of perjury he may be held for trial,
| as receiver Williams hopes to make such
progress in the examination of the books
of the bank as to produce evidence on
Monday which will sustain the allegations
that Shaw swore to false statement when
the bank made its accounting just before
| it failed For want of bondsmen, Shaw is
| in jail

Common.Sense Heels.

The man who is not too much
wrapped up in his business, and there
are few who are, to cast a critical eye
upon the well-dressed woman as she
passes him on the street on these al
legged spring days, will doubtless notice
that her style of walking has changed
for the better. He may not stop to
ponder upon the reason for the improve
ment, and perhaps could not discover
it if he did, but he nevertheless notices
and appreciates the fact.
The heel of woman's shoe is a little
thing and sometimes considered insig-
nificant, but it is of sufficient impor-
lance, all the same, to change her gait
and alter her whole appearance on the
street or in the ball room. One of fash.
IONS DEGREES that has for some years
been adhered to is that the heel of a
woman's shoe shall taper off to a pen
Gil point and be placed in the middle of
the foot. The result has been that her
shoes have proved of as much aid in
walking backward as forward. The
gait made necessary was accepted be-
cause it was fashionable, but it never
was admired.
Men admire a free and graceful gait
in women and it is undoubtedly the
chief desire of women to attract the adj
miration of men. The change in fash
ion which has taboed French heels on
women shoes, will give them another
valuable chance for success in this par
ticular. What are called common
sense heels have now been decreed to
be the thing. Women ought to be de-
voutly thankful therefore that they have
been kindly taken off of stills and are
permitted to walk in a way that is adj
mired by civilized men.-HGrrSs5urg

Encouraging a Young Man.

!. a young man, twenty two years old,
resident of Detroit, had, by strict
economy laid by a couple of thousand
dollars. Feeling that he needed advice
as to how to invest it, be called at the
Office of a capitalist and philanthropist,
and stated his case.
.'You have done exceedingly
well, replied the philanthropist, ..vou
should invest that money in suburban
lot, and profit by the rise.
I've thought of that; but where car.
I find lot?n
"Oh! that's easy enough; in fact. l
have several lots myself in market, and
will give You bargain.
The map was consulted, but when the
young man sawlthe location of the lots,
which had a soap factory on one side
and tanneryk on the other, with a
ravine at the back of both, he thought
$4,000 too great a price.
But the title, 7 protested the philan-
thropist-"th the title is without a flaw.
There is where you gain. a
"How?'' n~a
sWhy, when you come to me six
months from now to mortgage that lot
for 81, 200 it wouldn't take US over half
an hour to complete the whole business.
As philanthropist I'd advise you to
invest in solid real estate. AS capi-
talist I'm always willing to take mort
gage where the title is perfectly clear. .

Health Habits Of the Hog.

1t is now about time for the caperings
hogs to go and slosh themselves in the
nearest mud hole. ''When the pig wal
lows in mire," says DIR. Ballard, she
merely follows an instinct implanted in
him in common with some other
pachydermatous cleansing. The mud
stands to him in the relation of soap to
a human being, but instead of washing
it off with water he allows it to cake
and dry upon the skin and then rubs it
all off, mud and cutaneous debris to-
gether, upon some sufficiently rough
surface. Loose hair and cutaneous
scurf irritates him and he takes his own
way of cleansing his skin from them.
Cleanse his skin for him and he will
rest in contentment without offending
the eyes of his supercilious betters, often
less scrupulous in this matter than he
is, by his wallowings, scratchings and
scrubbings. 1t has long been known
that pig thus cleansed with soap and
water not only becomes less objection
able, but grows fat more speedily than
if left to cleanse himself IN his own way.
Similarly as respects his food. Garbage
is not the food that the pig selects by
preference. In fact, a pig which has
been fed for any time upon sweet food
will turn away from sour food dis.
gusted. If left to pick his own living
where he can find it, he will eat any
thing he finds eatable, but even then
will eat acorns, fallen fruit or roots in
preference to garbage; and human
beings in similar straits will act pre-
cisely in the same way. 1t may be
economical, and perhaps even desirable,
to convert into pork matters which can
in no other way, or in no way more
convenient, be made subservient to the
subsistence of mankind, and the pig is
possibly properly utilized in this man
ner. Our only desire is to yindicate his
character as Clearly feeder, if only he
has the chance of Clearly feeding vouch-
safed him.

A Tine-LOck Prevents the Opening of a
Bank Vault. .a

A strange thing occurred at the City
National Bank, in this city, a few days
ago. AS is well known, this corpora
ton moved into its new quarters, at the
corner of Sixteenth and Lawrence
streets, quite recently. The vaults
there are new ones, with the latest i'm
proved and combination locks. The
officers are thoroughly, familiar with
the workings of the locks, but, they be-
ing new, can not be held responsible
for any unsatisfactory workings. A
few days ago, when the proper time
had arrived, an effort was made to -un-
lock and open the main vault, but after
some time spent in unsuccessfully try
ing the combination it was discovered
that something was wrong, and that
the bolts held fast where they had
been lodged. Meanwhile drafts and
checks had been pouring in, and all the
available money had been paid out.
More were coming in, and immediate
action was necessary. A telegram was
at once sent to the vault manufacturers
for an expert to unlock the door, and
another telegram explaining the case
was sent East for money. The other
banks heard Of the circumstances, and
they offered Mr.. Hanna all the money
he desired. He gratefully accepted the
offer, but afterward found that he had
no use for the loans. For three days
the bank transacted business with its
vault doors closed, and without some
of the books most used. The strangest.
part of the affair was that very few
inconyenienees were felt During
those three days business was done,
and it was on the right side to suit the
circumstances. After paying all the
drafts made upon them, the officers of
the bank found that they had sur
plus of ffty-seven thousand dollars
upon their hands that amount being
the sum taken in during the three days
over and above the money paid. The
complications in the combination
showed the bank officials that their
credit was unlimited, and they have
reason to congratulate themselves upon
their lucky escape and financial standing
Had the circumstances been different
from what they were, no one can tell
what the consequences would have
been. Had some alarmist been refused
payment and told to call again the
rlmor would have gone out that the
bank was in a bad way, insolvent, etc,
and an aggrayating run would have
ensued. -DenUer Tribune.

The Early Bird.

1t is pretty well settled now that the
very early bird doesn't come after the
worm he comes before it. And, by
reason of this very previousness, he gets
left, RICH along, year by year. 1t is one
of those tusus nature, in which the bird
loses his nature, and nature in return
loses a bird.
Amid the rough-and-tumble of the
February and March tumult, there APP
pears now and then, each year, soft
and balmy day. Its sky is gentle, the
faintest of sweet odors are in the air,
and the south wind that brings them
whispers through the leafess trees the
promise of the coming summer. 1t lisa
welcome sound. In such day, man
wishes he had medium overcoat. Not
having it, he goes out without any, and
comes home to die-generally of pneu-
monia. On such day, all of a sudden
and without warning, the early bird APP
pears. There is nothing under the sun
for him to eat. The crust of the earth
is not digestible. The insect world is
frozen in or under it, and there is not
worm to be seen except such worthless
ones as we.
1t is peculiar situation for bird to
find himself in. Indeed, in boarding
house parlance, he can't find HIM
self, = and so he is generally lost. The
appearance of the early bird is signal
as infallible as any that the Government
hangs out. 1t is a direct notification
that we are about to have tremendous
change of weather, and that it is to
come on cold, with snow and sleet, and
the general devastation of misplaced
winter The bird disappears. Some
times MS dead body is found in the
snow; but oftener the funerel is private
as in tbe case of nearly all wild ami
mails, except cats. Few objects are
more rare in nature than dead crea-
lures. In some mysterious manner
they are got out of the way; all except
cats, which usually die in the middle of
the highway, and lie there until they
have impaired most of their strength to
the road-bed and the passer-by.
So it is that the early bird meets his
fate. Where he comes from is as little
known as where he goes to. He is the
bright part of the bright but unseasona-
BILE day that he comes with, but with it
he passes away into the lost past. The
moral aspects of his career are clear
enough without elaboration. His error
Lay in being ahead of his time. 1t was
fatal. 1t always is.-Har5ord COurGrat.

Milking Three Times a Day.

Messrs. Muller and Jones, of Ger
many, have been making some quite
extensive experiments in milking cows
more than the usual number of times
day. By milking three times a day a
slight percentage of fat is secured that
would be lost under other practice. In
one experiment reported, if the butter
were worth thirty cents a pound, the
butter from the two milkings would be
worth fourteen dollars and from the
three milkings eighteen dollars, accord
ing to the percentage of fat found to be
secured by the extra milking. The
question arises in this instance, is the
extra money value secured worth the
labor expended in securing itP This
will, of course, depend very much up
on how the cows are kept. If they are
at pasture the trouble of driving them
up and milking them, and driving them
back again, is not altogether measured
by the labor expended, but the loss of
the cows from pasture. Also the inter
ruption of men and women from their
regular daily labor are serious matters
on a farm where long distances sepa-
rate the hands from the cattle Then,
again, on the dairy farms of this coun-
try the great bugbear is the want of
good mixers. Few men can succeed
in dairying who have to depend on
hired help outside of their immediate
families or connections. Men hate to
milk, and women can not do it where
large numbers of cows are to be
handled in reasonably short time. In
the old country, where hands are 1u-
merous and to be had for the asking,
the burden of three milkings day may
be imposed without creating riot, but
in this country it would not work. The
chances also are that such frequent
milkings would tend to dry up the COWS
for the want of distention of the udder.
This of course applies to cows in the
usual condition. When a COW is fresh
and produces a yield that threatens the
safety of the udder and that is evident
ly painful to the cow,it is well then to
relieve the udder by one or two extra
milkings day, and even then it is
scarcely worth while to draw the udder
to the last strippings, but it would be
better to take out just enough to relieve
the udder from pain.
Under the ordinary conditions of
American farm life, we are quite sure
that the extra per cent. of fat saved by
one additional milking in view of the
Inconvenience attached to its perform
ance would not pay the dairyman to
practice it. In view of it's effect on the
COW, we would be slow to recommend
the practice, even if it did pay.-An,er'-
icG'a DairynaGn.
