Bill Nye Has no Further Use for the

From the Ne,o York World.
Burglars presume too much, l think.
Because they have free entree and carte
blanche to the drawing-rooms of our best
people, they want the earth and make
themselves disagreeable. l am going to
quit protecting and fostering the infant
industry of American burglary as against
the pauper burglar of Europe. / say, let
us get our burgling done by the best and
cheapest methods. Let our burglary take
its chances in competition with that of
effete monarchies, just as everything else
will have to do do anything in a newspaper
way that will look like an attempt to re-
tain the burglar vote.
Let the burglar rustic for his wages the
way do and the way other workingmen
do. know that burglars claim they are
poorly paid because their work keeps them
up nights so much, but newspaper men
have to work nights also, and unless they
can rob prosperous burglar once in
while they have hard row to how. And
what have the burglars ever done for me
that should now be called upon to advance
their interest?
When they had no other place TO go, have
they not always felt free to come to my

a Strange Spectacle Seen in the Rarl-
fed Air OF the Black Hills,
From the LedduRie Herald.
My companion then spoke concerning our
mission to this bleak and barren spot
"About twelve years ago" he said, IAN old
man by the name of Cearnals was the pro
prietor of jack train with which he used
to bring provisions and other commodities
into that mining camp you see beneath you
there. This was before the railroads on
tered the businesses of these mountains, and
everything was brought by mule teams or
by these jack trains into the camp. The
treasures which were found in the hills were
carried ont the same way.
lone time the old man Cearnals did not
arrive in the camp on time. Twas in the win
ter-and the coolest one, too, ever expert
enced in these hills. A searching party was
sent out to find him and his train as tie
people who had goods consigned to him
feared that some accident had befallen him.
Near where we are now is where he and his
team were found frozen to death. Aud now
each night may be seen the jack train just
as they were, but in the form of Spectres,
filing along their way to the camp. Get
out and we will go down the trail a piece
and see them" We got out of the buggy,
and taste ing the horse TO a stunted

After a most perilous and tortuous
walk of half an hour, on account of the
slippery condition OF the ground, which
was covered with snow, my companion led
me to point near the old Leadville trail,
which could be distinctly seen above us
against the side Of the mountain Looking
at his watch, he remarked that it was
almost time for them to appear. After
EiaEiDcr tho from a rOnna of h1IlIarc
we sat down and in silence awaited develop
ments. My companion would not say a word,
but simply pulled away at cigar, his looks
being cast in the direction of the trail. We
waited half an hour, but it seemed a week
to me, cold wind having arisen, and | was
almost frozen and was wishing myself at
home.
Suddenly my companion cutcheG me
nervously by the arm and pointed to the
trail. The sight that | saw made each in
dividual hair on my head stand on end, for
there on the trail, coming around sharp
angle caused by boulder, was jack train
OF twenty-thre9 animals They all emitted
a faint phosphorescent glow, which made
them appeal all the more vivid against the
side of the hill. They were loaded
with different articles of merchsn-
disc, and the last one, which the spectral
driver was urging on with his short
goad, seemed to be loaded with
-four Every once in while as the train
slowly filed along, this last jack would lean
his load against a projecting rock, as if
resting himself. This would cause the
driver to punch it with his short stick The
weird spectres slowly passed from view
around the hill, and, more dead than alive
from fright, we made our way to wherein
had left the horse and buggy. Ny com
panion informed me, while on our way back
to the city, that this strange sight could be
seen any dark night"

The old gentleman chuckled and made a
remark implying that the "Autocra" was
no great thing among books-and Miss was
rather surprised at his disparaging air.
After dinner she demanded Of her hostess

gentleman and was told it was DR.. Holmes.
