DELIBERATELY CRIMINAL,

The manner in which ne obtained the
bills of exchange and his disposition of
them dsproye all the theories advanced by
his friends in support of the
belief that he had not deliberately
ieecei the city of whatever he could lay
his hands on, when ne saw that the cras
was coming and fled. On the day before
he left the city he visited the National
City bank, the ONO National bank, the
Union National bank, the Gle elNnd
National bank and the CommArc.al
National bank and purchased bills #
exchange on Drexel, Morgan g. Co., of New
York amounting to a sum slightly III excess
of 100000.
ONLY TWO BANKS AVOIDED.
The only national banks that he did not
visit for this purpose were the Merchants
and Bank of Commerce, and the reason is
explained for his hondsmen, Mr. Wade and
Senator II. b. Payne, are connected, one or
the other. with these institutions, and
would have had their suspicious aroused by
such an action. Axworthy gave his personal
checks in payment for the bills. Drexell,
Morgan a. Co. have q number of branch
offices in Europe, and tho simplest logic
leads to the conclusion that Axworthy con
verified his Cleveland paper into foreign bills
of exchange at the New York Office before
be went to Montreal The defalcation is at
least $4,000, and maybe still more. No
trace of the missing man after lie left Mon
treal on Oct. 2 has yet been found. His
friends say he is.probably in Belgium.

Singular Condolences.

In the history Of almost every in
dividual there are incidents that
impress and are in some
measure unaccountable, but they
occur all the same. Notably q lew
days ago, Lamar Wood gave some
destitute travellers some money, and
in n few hours he collected an old
debt that had about slipped his
memory. The amount of the col
lected debt vas many times larger
than the donation. Another In
stance: Coroner Oaks some months
ago threw a quarter one sabbath in
to the contribution-box, thinking he
was giving q nickel. Next morning
by 10 o'clock he was called upon to
hold an inquest overa dead negro.
just another: On the first Tuesday
IN this month DR.. George Posey put
his socks on wrong side outward, as
it ia called, and never detected the
mistake. until lie began putting On.
his shoes. Thisinduced him To tell his
family that good luck was IN store

Are Mustaches Contagious !

She is a dark brunette and pretty,
too, but the markings of O mustache
persist in shading her lip. She has
had the hair burned of with acids,
,plucked out with pinchers, shocked
out with electricity, but it isn't any
use. They all grow in again. Now
she has taken to shaving. She has
provided herself with a dainty razor
and a love of a lather cup. Every
week or SO she covers her lip with
the soapy froth, Yields the blade
deity, and sc keeps as smooth an
upper lip as anybody's.. Now, why
shouldn't every brunette with an In
welcome mustache follow her exam
pie? But I was going to record a
dialogue.
"Whatever made a mustache start
out on me | can't imagine" said
Bess, ruefully; "my mother hasn't
one-none OF my sisters have-it is
singular"
Perhaps you caught it?" Jennie
suggested.

~"Drnmming,, Ii Early DAYS.

"Itamuses me" said the white-haired
head Of a large ST. Louis iron house,
In a conversation recently, Ito hear
travelling mennowadays complaining
Of the hardships Of the road, the
taking Of late trains, travelling in
cabooses and such like incoveniences.
Lord bless you, they should have
seen the tdrummers' of old days and
heard their experiences, and then they
would have known something about
the woes ofthe~ travelling man. Thirty
years ago / was young, ambitious,
and full of energy, and went on the
road for q st. Louis iron house.
When I could not travel by river
and that could be done only in going
through q certain portion Of our
trade-stage coaches and horseback
were my only means Of travel. Many
a cold and weary Winters day have l
passed in the saddle, starting out
early in the morning, going through
snow orran, fording creeks and half
frozen all the. time, until / could
hardly dismount when my days jour.
ney was over. And then there were
no banks or collection agencies
through the country to facilitate the
collection ofdebts, and the 'drummers'
had all of that. work to do. We
Travelled with ld.fashioned valises
which could be used as saddle-bags

these were the receptables for what
money we collected. 1t was some
times pretty ticklish work stopping

dlebags filled with good hard money,

then about 95 cents, and gold and
silver coin, but it had to be done. /
slept on the floor in a little tavern
Office one Winters night with my
valise under my head for a pillow,
containing over 81, 500 cash. 1t was
a hard pillow, but I felt safer with it
there, and slept quite soundly. The
drummers of to-day don'tknow what
hard travelling is. They should have
frozen or half drowned Or starved

"Do / know of any case where an
a~pplicant:for the police succeeded in
aeceiving the examiners?" said q
gentlem an the other day. "Well yes,
I can tell you of one, but / believe
there are not many Others. About a
year ago a young man applied for
examination, and acquitted himsel If
very c~reditably. He lacked a quar-
ter of an inch in height, however, and
although he had what is called con-
siderable pull no power on earth
could secure his appointment.
HE wasn't discouraged though,
and came up for succeeding examina-
lions only to be reminded each time
that but for that fraction of an inch
he might hope to swing a locust.
"He was just about giving up all
hope; when a bright idea struck him.
He had his hair cut short, and as it
grew trained it to stand up straight
and stiff. 1t wasn't very long before
this treatment produced the desired
effect, and he could pride himself on
being the possessor Of q head of hair
Of surprising thickness. But it's ap-
pearance was not in the least extra
ordinary, SO nicely did he have it
trimmed. : y Z

qualified, and today he is the proud

Canada are one with us in race, lineage, his
Tory and tradition; and, whereas. TIE re-

aral and artificial are 20 interlocked and mu-
bually dependent upon each other that they
ought TO constitute q single system, to beone
and ~inseparable; and whereas, the commercial
relations between the United States and the
dominion OF Canada are, and have been,
str,ined and unnaturailv cramped and in q
measure paralyzed, owing to the inability Of
the two governments to establish such q
system Of international trade and COM
merce between them as lis essential to meet
the requirements of the situation; and Where4
as, the conditions n relations before re-.
sferred to,tsas also the geography of the two
countries, suggest the impossibility Of a inst

sizes pertaining to the fisheries, boundaries and
