VicariOuS Sacrifice.

A good many years ago a cashier took
little lad from neighboring poor
house, and when the boy had become a
youth he was given a responsible posi-
ton in the bank of which his patron was
practically the head Later the cashier
stole more than $4,000 from the bank.
Exposure was threatened every day, and
the guilty officer, in period of depres-
sion, confessed to the youth that he pro-
posed 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 suggested, and the cashier eagerly
accepted the suggestion, that he should
fasten the guilt upon himself and alb
scond, thus leaving his patron honest in
the worlds eyes, though blackened in
his own. What the public heard Of the
Westport robbery was that a bank clerk
named Ray had stolen $4,000
Detectives found several clews, but
not until years after was the secret dis
closed. One of the detectives who had
been employed in the case came upwith
Ray under still more romantic romances.
The detective, according to his reminis-
cences published in San Francisco pa
per, was called to Western city to fer
ret out the person who had robbed a
private house of 200 gold eagles The
only man under arrest was one Henry
Martin. As soon as the detective saw
Martin the former said: you are Dali
las Ray, who robbed the Westport
bank" Ray then told the true story OF
the robbery. and the story has been YER
flied since. Ray claimed that he was in
nocent of the gold-eagle burglary, and
asked the detective to take note to his
sweetheart, a Miss Morse. When the
latter heard of her lovers prediciment
she threw her whole soul into obtaining
proof of his innocence. She went to
the house where the robbery had been
committed. Having asked if the burg
larly had left anything in his flight she
was given a handkerchief that had been
dropped by the intruder. She put the
the handkerchief to her nose and ex-
