An Accomplished Butler.

philadelphia Records Washington Letter. y
One day last fall handsome mulatto
boy came to the door OF o friend of
mine, asking for work. He was good
butler, he explained, despite his years;
he had been carefully trained and could
do many things outside his strict line of
duty. My friend happened to need Just
such 3 serving man and accepted him
very imprudently on his face, which was
good, without asking particularly for
his recommendations, which were bad.
He was most accomplished servant.
He knew all about the dining room; he
knew all about the front door; he was
willing and ready, and quiet. and q
great success in every way. He was an
extremely polite boy, thoroughly gentle
and kind, and he soon worked his way
into the good graces Of the family. One
day;4when one of the young ladies was
playing on tie piano, he was discovered
listening. The next day he was found
listening again. His devotion to music
was remarked upon. Finally he plucked
up courageto ask whether he could not
sit down to the piano at odd moments
when the ladies' were otherwise engaged.
They said he could. He did at the first
opportunity, and fcs mulatto serving.
man he played e1quisitely. OF course
the ladies' heard him and were pleased.
They felt they. had jewel They did
not have him long. Oae day after be
had won! the hearts OF the whole family
be quietly stepped out With all tho jew
elsy he could 10y his delicate hands on.
On Tuesday he was arraigned at the bar
OF the police court, charged with having
swindled a dozen families in the same
way. He pleaded guilty in his dulcet
toneg.to each charge, and was held m
heavy bail for trial.

Child Killers.

The Novoe Yremya warns Russian
mothers of a new religious sect which
has given several proofs of its existence.
In kostov, on the Don, an officer engaged
q middle-aged nurse for his three. year
old son. She was very attentive and
seemed fond of the child, but after two
months she suddenly left the situation
and the town. The child began to all
the very next day, lost its memory, and
suffered from continual drowsiuess. A
week later it died without having been
really i'll. The corpse was placed in the
coffin, when a young Jewess. burst into
the house, threw herself upon the child,
and crying bitterly said sssThe same
woman poisoned my child. She was my
nurse before, and now she has murdered
your poor boyl" The woman spoke the
truth. It has been found that in Ros-
toy there is o society Of child murderers,
who poison children by means of nar-
cotics. They are inst;gated to do 30 by
q fanatical woman, who says, sIt is ev-
cry woman's duty to spare fheievils Of
life TO as many children as possible, and
to make them share in the bliss Of heaven

Misplaced Sympathy.
tFrom the Detroit Free Press.

Among the families who excited
much interest at the baby show last
week was one which consisted cfga deaf
and dumb father and mother, and d very
fine baby. The ladies were all p!eased
with the baby, and much interested in
the little mother, who smiled and
watched her offspring with the ferdest
solicitude. Some OF the questions asked
were very amusing, but an aunt of the
baby acted as interpreter. E sk
. at time when the museum was quite
full some ladies paused in front Of the
group and studied them carefully. A
young man was wiring on slips Of pa
per and passing them to the little moth-
er; he also talked to her in The sign Ian
guage. S
'sPoor .fellow!" explained one visitor;
'the's her husband. Now you would
never know to look at her that she was
deaf and dumb; but you can see his af-

'Oh, that is an old plan, . said the
first speaker; "the libial language is we'll
understood by them; watch me now, !"
and she turned upon the young man,
who was caressing the baby, and looked
him steadily in the face, at the. same
time slowly articalating and touching
her lips. - sf,,sss .Ss,s

and the interested ladies made a speedy
exit.

A Heron's Strength.

~.
A few weeks ago, Col. William q.
Sisty, the fish commissioner of Colorado.
went to the state fish hatchery, on the
Plata River, nine miles from Denver.
While he was inspecting the hatchery
he saw large blue heron preying upon
the young fish i'll the boxes. He ap-
preached the heron, expecting that the
bird would take alarm and fly; but the
heron attacked him furiously.- The bird
was fully as tall as Col. Sisty, and was
so very swift that he was upon the man
In what seemed an instant. He used his
neck with lightning like rapidity, strik-
ing all the time at Col. Sisty's face.
Col. Sisty was unable to do more at first
than protect his eyes, and the blows
rained upon his hands left them
bleeding. His face was also cut in
places, for the bird was quicker with his
bill than the man was with his hands.
After the surprise was over Col. Sisty
prepared to assume the offensive. Pro-
tecting his face with his hat, he rushed
in upon the huge heron, seized the
creature by the body, and hurled him
to the ground. Then the struggle was
soon decided, for Col. Sisty grasped the
heron's neck and held on until his en-.
envy was choked to death. The heron
was taken to Denver and exhibited to
hundreds Of people. who soon learned of
the, fish commissioners exploit.

Two prisoners escaped yesterday
afternoon from the gang working at
the quarry. They stole two horses
from Mr.. Waller and were seen, at
5 A. NJ. this morning, riding across
the Waimalu bridge. The country
districts have been aroused and the
police arc in full chase, under Cap

they secured a round file from the
tramway locomotive at the quarry,
with which to remove the chain and
ball from Kaui. Minister Kapena's
messenger was one of the most en-
thusiatic in last nights chase, but
returned home without success at
eleven O. clock. Later in the night
the runaways visited his house, took
six fowls and two suits of clothes.

geance and is again on the trail.
