last version of the story published during
the search for new evidence by the new
York Herald, that Mr.. Barron employed Two
professional burglars to come and rob tne
bank, and that they murdered him for his
pains. Under such circumstances, most men
outside of the dominions of the King, OF Da-
honey would have forborne so much as 10
diyulge their suspicious, even IL at the cost
of a few hundred dollars out of their own
pockets, much more when silence would cost
nobody anything. Such being the dictate OF
ordinary humanity even upon their own
showing, intelligent men cannot help asking
how 1t happens that this suicide theory OF
crazy detective was so promptly and eager
ly embraced, so publicly promulgated, and
SO yindictively and perversely persisted In
through court after court for nine years al
ways unsuccessfully?
Ii is then strange if rejecting observers
are being forced to the suspicion that some
yet unrevealed but potent motive may have
inspired conduct which, unexplained, sayors

HOW MEN DIE.

of the danger and postpone the moment when
surrender becomes inevitable. In many instances
the inherent strength of the body sufices to ena-

however, have lost these forces TO such an extent
that there is little or no help. In other cases. a
little aid to the weakened Lungs " III make all
the difference between sudden death and many
years of useful life. Upon the first symptoms Of
Cough, Cold, or any trouble OF the Throat OF
Lungs, give that old and well known remedy

prove, what thousands say of 1t, to be the "bene-

customs Reductlons.

The question Of meeting salaries at the

have been happily answered by an arrange
ment by which each of the employees will
take five days vacation in each month with

than the method at the New York custom
house, which, 1t is said. will result in the
discharge Of several hundred employees.

A Good Move.
