HIS FIRE ESCAPE.
II Was All Right, But he Was Too Scared
to Use it.

to Use it.
They put ME next to drummer at the
St. Charles Hotel in New Orleans, writes
a correspondent of the New York Sun. and
as was unlocking the door about 10
o'clock at night he came down the hall
and asked:

"The fire escapes"
"No. never attend to such things"
"You don't? Well, you are in for a
roasting some night. l never go to bed
in hotel until after have located every
stairway and fire escape. If there was to
be an alarm here tonight | could Jump
out of bed with the fullest confidence OF
saving myself See here a minute"
And he took me into his room and pro-
duced from his trunk a fire escape made
of ropes, and explained:
'Should / happen to be cut off from the
stairs or escapes here is my other chance.

throw the rope out, so; and | can lower
myself fifty feet in forty seconds"
We had been in bed about two hours
when | was awakened by the odor OF
smoke, and was hardly on my feet when a
gong sounded and there were shouts OF
Fire. The smoke was so thin that
knew the danger was yet far off and began
dressing. While so engaged l heard the
drummer cantering up and down the hall
shouting Sire p at the top of his voice.
When | finally got out | found him
jammed into linen closet half way down
the hall and crying like child. His
rope escape hung on the wire work OF the
elevator, and he had made bundle of his
clothes and flung them over transom
into another room. The fire was out by
the time | got dressed, and when the
Waterman, who was going about to quiet
the people, reached our hall the drummer
clasped him around the neck and shouted
"Say say Show me the way down

Parnell Still Leads.

New YoRY, Nov. 2O,-The Associa-
ted Press learns through T. P. O'Con-
nor, M. p, and T. P. Gill, NJ. P, that
the Irish ENJOYS are firmly resolved
to stand by the leadership of Parnell.
They think that this course is dictat-
ed not merely by gratitude for Par
nell's imperishable services in the
past, but by the conviction that his
leadership is absolutely essential to
the success of their movements. Ow-
ing to the scattering of the delegates
at meetings in different portions of the
country, it has not been possible to
have cablegram sent TO Ireland to-
night, but its terms are practically
agreed upon, and q joint message,
which is uncompromising in supporG
of ParnelPs leadership, is being sign
ed by all the delegates.

The Lumbermen's and Manufac-

the Mutual Fire association, organ
lied five years ago, were yesterday
morning placed in the hands of J. A.
Smith as receiver. Mr.. Smith is sec
Rotary of both companies. The busi-
ness of the companies was confined
mostly to Wisconsin, Minnesota and
Illinois. The affairs are in good
shape and the creditors are safe. The
assets are Sl50, 900, and are largely in
excess of the liabilities. The suspen.
sion Of business was occasioned by
the suspension of eight other mutual
companies in various parts of the
country during the lass six months,
caused by the withdrawal of insur-
ance.

VALENTINE, NEB., Nov. 20.-Two

with horrible tale that the anti
Messiah's half-breeds and ghost

this is probably the worst sort
of exaggeration. While there might
have been row, it is not thought
here that any one has been killed.

The Investigation.

SHREVEPORT, La, November 90
The congressional. investigation of
charges of malfeasance in office of
the United States district attorney,
Judge Alex. Boarm,In, began this
morning in the Federal court room.
James Turner, a lawyer of Marshall,
Tex, was the first witness, and
testified as follows: A. H. Leonard
of Shreveport, became associated
with him in a case because of his
supposed influence with Judge Leon
ard guaranteeing speedy trial of
case and verdict for their client. J.
A. Weeks of Monroe, U. s. Marshal
under Garfield, testified that on three
or four occasions he loaned Judge
Boatner money not exceeding three
hundred dollars at time. Boatner
paid it back regularly. The money
belonged to the government. He
would not have loaned it to
any one else. He believed il
was to his interest to loan to-
the judge. CA. Gibson, ex.U. s.
also loaned Bastner money
but not goat money. The Judge paid
him back promptly. He loaned mon
ey because he thought it was best for
him to do so. Cross-examiped
witness finally admitted it was gov
eminent money always within an
due him for commission. A
number of attorneys testified as to
Leonard's influence with Boarman.
some explaining that they did not
mean to imply undue influence and
,iting numbers of cases tried before
Judge Boarman.

bank, the princely sum of $500, 900;
but the greatest sum of money, the
largest and most successful safe
cracking on record on this continent,
was perpetrated between Sunday at
ternoon and Monday morning of Oct.
81, 1878, at the Man haitian savings
bank of New York, in which trans
action several experts made haul of
S2,757 700, or over two and three-quar-
ter millions of dollars. Did you ask
does it pay? 1t certainly looks that
way when experts undertake the
work.
There appears to be continual and
everlasting race between the manu-
facturers of safes and the safe crack
ers. 1t is a race in which the manu-
facturer of safes is constantly exert
ing himself to get ahead of the
cracker. No sooner had the safe
cracker found way of drilling and
blowing the common safe than the
manufacturers had to resort to steel
plates. When the safe cracker had
shown himself master of these, the
chrome laminated plates were intro
duced. The robber found that he
could not bore these with his tools
and he began to suck the safe full of
fine giant powder, through the
cfevices by means of an air
pump. The safe manufacturer
promptly took another step, and
now he makes safes in which
the door fit so tightly that not even
the finest dust or steam can be forced
through the crevices and they called
the safes, air, dust, steam, fire and bur-
glar proof. But the expert safe crack
or was not to be annihilated, he has
set to work drilling again, and up to
the hour of going to press, the expert
safe cracker is still on top, for he can
