An Odd Bank of Deposit.

carefully. A large cheese was discov-
cred in a box under the bed, but as it
was too strong for the palates of the
policeman and his bride they disposed
of it to the grocer for the sum of ten
francs. The next day. as the worthy
man was cutting the big cheese. his
knife came in contact with hard
substance, and presently gold pieces
were rolling about on the floor. The
secret was at last out. The cheese
was now carefully examined, and was
found to contain 1000 francs in notes
and gold; but, unluckily for the pre-
sumed heiress, there was also q bit of

Where Is the American Tar?

That a large proportion of the sea-
men on our men-of-war are foreigners
is fact unpalatable, but nevertheless
true. How much of menace it may be
to the Nation in the event of war re-
mains to be seen. When the frigate
Constitution made her memorable
cruise under Hull. which resulted in
the capture of the Guerrero, every
man was an American sailor, the
great majority of them belonging

incentive for the average American
youth to adopt the sea as a profession.
There are no ships, no encouragement,
no prospect. and they drift into other
pursuits. The cruiser Boston may be

making up her crew. The pay-rolls

Senator Ex.r,s. Log Cabin.

Senator Evarts has erected an old fash
toned Log Cabin on an elevated point q
land which he lately purchased on the Poto-
mac, just below Washington.
It is much moro elegant in its finish and
appointments than were the homes Of our
ancestors in the Log Cabin days of long
ago, but probably not more conducive to
comfort
Outside, It presents the appearance Of
the typical old fashioned house Of the pio-
neers, being built Of logs hewn in the ada
cent forest and raised and chinked in tho
olden style The interior will be finished
in native woods, from the place, but, unlike
the primitive original, it will be finished in
oil
This is luxury to which the dwellers in
the rude Cabins Of early days dared not
aspire, it being pure luxury, and not adding
to the comfort of the domicile.
Senator Evarts began the Log Cabin last
summer with the determination that, il
Gen. Harrison were elected, he would re-
verse the popular campaign axiom Of half q
century ago, "From the Log Cabin to the
White House." to a social axiom Of the new
administration, "From the White House to
the Log CABIN"
Harrison was successful; Senator Evarts'

Senator Evarts' log cabin Is but another

primitive and antiquated. The new fashion
is for things old fashioned, and q return to

A WONDERFUL STORY.

A WONDERFUL STORY.
Grace Penroy sank nearly fainting on the
breast Of her unexpected visitor. The
sight Of Lura Joyce's face was like unto
meeting the dead returned from the shores
Of eternity.
For some minutes not word passed, the
silence only broken by the sobs Of Grace,
who rested q dead weight in the arms OF
her cousin.
There, there, dear, don't cry" uttered
Lura Joyce, In her old, CHEEKY way. "Pve
returned to stay, and you need not fear to
lose me, so Just un wind those arms, pretty,
and sit down, for I've a heap to tell you"
And Grace Penroy suffered her cousin to
lead her to an rm-chair near.
Like one in dream she sat and regarded
the face Of Lura. 1t seemed like pleasant
vision, and yet it was all true. Her bright,
spirited cousin was sitting there before her
in the flesh, with all her old self beaming
in every feature Of her countenance.
"Ah" breathed the heiress, chow good
Heaven isl am so glad that-that you
have returned"
Again she burst into tears.
Don't cry" urged Lura. "If you are
glad to see me you ought to laugh. But
then I must not forget the cause you have
for grief, know of the dark shadow that
rests over Lone Hollow. You have my
sympathy, and will help you to fight the
demon who hopes to feather his nest
through crime, and the gullibility Of q
girl"
Lura rose suddenly, went to the door that
stood ajar, and closed it, turning the key in
the lock Then she resumed her seat, and,
regarding Grace ixedly, said:
II have much to tell you, Grace, and I do
not wish to be interrupted"
81 am very anxious to hear it, you may be
sure" said Grace, speaking for the first
time in some minutes, controlling her emo
tons with great difficulty, and regarding
her cousin with a devourlng expression Of
the honest gray eyes, that showed how her
feelings were stirred
"First tell me of all that has happened
during the past manufacturing my absence
from Lone Hollow" said Lura-
"Of course you have heard Of grandpa's
deathr'
ayes, you need not dwell on that, which
know is painful to you"
After minute given to forcing a calm
state Of feeling Grace Penroy began histo-
ry Of the past few weeks, and in her cousin
she found most interested listener.
When she had finished Lura said:

A Terrific Ftrearn.

A day or two ago HERALD reporter
inspected new sort of frearm, that for
the burning of a given amount of powder
does phenomenal execution. An
ordinary rife barrel, such as is used, fer
example, in hunting bear or other large
game, was taken. The upper end was
cut off this and new steel chamber
securely attached to this. Its diameter
is perhaps two and half times that oi
the rest of the barrel. 1t is about -four
inches long, and in its end is a screw
with a coarse thread and fitting close.
This is removable. The enlarged end oi
the barrel is the powder chamber. The
touch-hole Is just behind the ball, which
is of rife shape, very much elongated.
The whole principle lies in this relation
of the powder to the ball. 1t is
burned right in front of the ball,
and the enlarged chamber enables
it to be burned nearly all at once in this
position. The shot that the reporter in
spected was made by the use of 500
grains of good powder.
The target was made of five thicknesses
Of boiler plate, each three eighths of an
inch thick. These were firmly bolted
together with pieces of wood between
each layer Of plate. The total thickness
of the plates, or five times three, eighths
of an inch, is q inches. The ball per-
forated the target as clean as whistle,
passed through six-incA wooden post
behind it, then broke a boulder all to
smithereens, and imbedded itself clean
out of sight in clay bank at least mile
from the place of discharge. 1t is ter
rife weapon, and the principle applied
on large scale will project a missile
that no plate armor can withstand.
