Thompson some days ago to rob the
safe and divide the booty and Thomp-
son agreed, but sent for n professional
detective. They laid their plans so
that Wilioughby was found in the
the saloon ready to do bis part when
he was arrested.

The Box Didn't Make Change.

1t would be supposed that by this
time nearly every man, woman and
child In THIS city would know enough
about the money boxes in street cars
to enable them to put their fare in the
box. Especially in this case when
there is large sign staring the pas
senger In the face to put 1.-The exact
fare in the box"
The other day lady, nicely dress
ed, boarded a short line Birmingham
car at the corner of Carson and Tenth
streets, to ride to the city. She flash
ed out of her pocket, which was con-
cealed where no man could ever find it
a beautiful little purse, and extracting
a dime, she refused the proffered aid of
fellow passenger to put her fare in
the box. She walked to the forward
end of the car and dropped the dime
into the opening of the box. Then she
stood there with an expectant look on
her face and one hand on the top of the
box. Whether she expected the box
would open and hand out q nickel in
change in about the same manner as
practiced by a cabinet speak easy"
the other passengers could only guess.
The driver told her she would have to
stand the loss of the nickel unless the
car took on another passenger.
1 At the Pittsburg end of the bridge
another passenger got on. He wore a
light blonde mustache and self-satisfed
air of MASKING" anything in sight, as
he tripped past the young lady. AS
he asked the driver for two nickels in
exchange for dime, the mule puncher
told him of the young lady's predica-
ment. OF course, he was only too glad
TO pay her back the five cents and
smiled sweetly as he handed over that
amount. With "you-bet- I'm-in-it"
expression, he turned around and drop
ped the other nickel in the box. Then
he discovered that he was out nickel,
and the smiles of the passengers made
him go out and commune with himself.
The individual who enjoyed the joke
= the most was the young lady who
caused his MISUNDERSTANDING Dis
match.

Longe Pointe, [Que. dispatch: fire
In the Insane asylum here was attended
with the most frightful consequences.
The buildings were filled with patients,
many of whom lost their lives, as the
tremen were powerless to subdue the
flames. 1t is impossible as yet to give
an exact estimate of the number of
fatalities, but the number is placed as
high as 100.
There were about ninety patients in
small cells, many OF them raving man
iacs, some in chains and letters, and
they had no means OF escape.
The fire was discovered by ]. A. Nc
kenna of Burlington, who had just en-
tered the asylum for treatment for loss
of memory. He was sitting in his room
after being examined when he felt the
plaster on the wall growing warm. He
sprang 10 his feet and ran out shouting

being nearly smothered with smoke

The scene of anguish that ensued
when the magnitude of the disaster was
realized was almost without parallel.
There were / 300 inmates in the build

as possible they were rushed TO the
western wing. hurried down stairs and
out upon the grounds. There upon the
wet grass some of them huddled to-
gether under the cover of blankets,
while others wandered through the
grounds with faces untouched by the
horror of the scene.
More than 1000 helpless creatures
were gathered together within the In
closure OF the grounds, guarded only by
the man at the gate. One young girl in
the midst OF the drilling rain, thinly
clad. sat at piano on the grounds and
played soft music, while the terrible
fiames roared above her. Those who
saw the spectacle will never forget it,

The surgeon of the asylum says that
certainly fifty patients are dead, and

The baseball arithmetician continues
as follows: THAT is the sum which
must be realized ut the very lowest esti.
mate to pay expenses. The chances are
that it is $4,000 too low. Well, now,
see what the average receipts to game
must be to bring tue New York club out
whole. Suppose they play every cham
pionship game seventy at home and av-
erage 81 800 gate receipts 10 game, OF
about $500 paying spectators; that
would give them total home receipts of
sos, 200. OF this they retain half
or S52 ,000-the other halt going 10 the
visiting clubs. TO get the Ss5, GOO
they must get the S32, 500 on the road.
If they play oil their seventy games
away from home (which is not likely
they must average about S4G5 as their
hslf of each game-that is, they would
have to play to $3.50 each game, or 1850
spectators. Does any one believe they II
average one-h half that number in Cleve-
land, Pittsburg. Brooklyn, Philadelphia,
and Buffalo? And if New York fares
thus how will the clubs in the five cities
/ have just named come out? There is a
chance for Boston and Chicago to make
expenses. As for the other six clubs
bankruptcy stares them in the face-with
the expenses of grand stands and inn
