The wild and woolly banker then

the banker went homo Mr.. b. aud
his wife made a statement Of the
money he had paid out and the
pamount he had left, and found that
he had $2S.64 more money than be-
longed TO him.
The next day Mr.. B. called at my

The banker could not tell whetil-
er he paid the money to Mr. B. or
not; but in balancing up the books
be discovered a shortage Of $4,000
This was hours afterwards, and he
related under oath that the reason
he thought he had paid it to Mr.. B.
was because it was about the last
transaction Of the day, hence he
concluded that he had paid it to Mr..
b., and upon this fimsy pretext
they asked that Mr.. b. be bound

accordingly done. This is in sub
stance the correct story.

DR.. Cronin's Murderers.

Chicago cannot boast of having very wide
awake detectives or a police force that pos
sesses an average amount of shrewdness. II
reliance had been placed upon them only
the disappearance of DR.. Cronin would still
be unaccounted for. Even a newspaper re-
porter seems to have accomplished more in
unraveling the Cronin mystery than they
have. They seemed to'be too ready to &C
cept tie story 1T DR.. Crcnin had been
guilty of mali raotice and lad left his home
in order to escape the consequences of his
crime.
Although the doctors body has been
found, and the place where he was muir
dered discovered, the murderers are still
at large. The police, however, have several
lmp-r tant clews which they think will lead
TO results which viii justify the making of
several arrests. Indeed, 1t now ira, spir,s
that the police had important clews before
the doctors body was found, bua for some
reason not yet explained they did not follow
them up.
The impression is that the doct II was the
victim of personal enemies The idea that
he was an obstacle i the way of the Ma
tlonal League, aud that his removal was de-
sired, is not entertained for a momeat. He
was a member Of the Claimant Gael and
other rish-American societies, and was
very active in the Irish cause. He had in.
CURED the enmit Of some of the members
of the National League because he had de-
cIared that al the money it received was
not spent in behalf of the cause for which it
was contributed. 1t is thought that some
Of tn Sc Gtinst whom this charge
was direc ed, and whom the doctor threat
ened to expose, are either directly or ind
rectly r, spon>ible for his dsata. It is sus-
pected that he was lured 60 the cottage, j.
which lood stains were found, by the All
nouncement that his pr fessional service
were needed, aud t at when he entered the
cottage he was murdered.
II the mu -derers are not caught it will b.
probably because the police, by their mac
tivity, gave them ample opportunity to
escape.

He Won His Bet.
From the Minneapolis Tribune.


A good story is told of W. E. Gooding who
returned with Patsey Cardiff, the pugiSt, last
Wednesday night. The 'eteran spri ter Ken
drick, was to run atG re- one or two others of
lesser reputation, an 60 ing was induced to
bet S25 on endrick. y intimate friend in
formed the Minneapolis nan that the veteran
was lin with the game and would sell him
out. Mr.. GOoding began to devise ways and
M ans to get his money back. He posted
Patsey Cardiff at the nd of the course and
Tommy Warren at the end of tn halfway post
before the race was begun. Then he called
kendrlck to one sile and sad:
See here, old man, you have sold me out,
out I'm on to you. That Patsey Cardiff at
thu end of the course and Tommy Warren half
way down. You know who they ara?"
Yes, they're sluggers,' replied Kendrick.
yes, that's right" said Gooding; they are
sluggers. Iput them there when l found out
you were going to throw the race. Now, they
have their instructions, and i you don't win
this rae you will never come IF the track alive.
They viii batter your head al out of shape"
Tie grayhaired old sprinter looked at the
two pugiliSts and turned pale Apparently he
believed everything Cooling said, and when
tue han kerchief dropped he spri ted for the
finish line with all the muscle ne had left his
legs. In hi, terror Of the pIZilsts he forgot to
stand in with the BETS and ne came in an easy
winner and Goodilg won his bets.
