HE WALKED OUT.
A FEDERAL PRISONER ESCAPES
FROM THE MARSHAL's OFFICE.
The Man Who Robbed the Lancaster
Posto6ace Escapes From Custody in
Cool Way

w. j. Mugarrietta showed yesterday
how GOODNESS and nerve will often help
q man out OF trouble. On December Goth
Of last year he burglarizedthe postofiice At
Lancaster. but was captured. His ex-
animation has been under way for sew
eral days before United States Commits
sioner Van Dyke, and yesterday he was
held to answer.
He was in the custody of Deputy
Marshal jenkins, who took his prisoner
into the marshaps office, and started to
the commissioner Office to get the
commitment. Az Jenkins reached the
door the prisoner, turning to Deputy
Marshal Flint, the cashier and book
keeper, asked to 60 to the toilet room.
Mr.. Flint, seeing Jenkins in the door,
said that he iJenkins) would take
him, and Mugarrietta walked out
after his guardian officer. The latter,
not noticing that his prisoner was be-
hind him, kept on to the commissioner
Office, while the prisoner turned down
the hallway, sped down stairs, and was
out of sight before anyone knew that he
had escaped.
A thorough search was instituted and
kept up for the escape, but no trace of
him could be found. except that he had
visited an Alameda street woman.

Something ought TO be written on the
stiuuette of boxes. Boxes. that is, in which
gifts are sent. Mr.. Howells suggests some
of the difficulties that arise out of boxes in
april Hopes" The lover wants to send
back the letters when the engagement Is
broken His faithful friend comes to help
him. He hunts about in the closet while
for suitable box in which to pack the let
ters The first one he fishes out has Glad
stone No. 10" on the lid. That won't do.
He rummages about a while longer The
next one has something else on II. There
isn't a box in the whole closet that was
suitable for the return of "A lot of love LETT
tiers. Now these young fellows had a proper
perception In these matters. But IA great
many persons haven't, and it is for just
such persons that certain rules ought to be
laid down in the etiquette books.
1t was owing to want of this kind Of
instruction that a certain embarrassing in
cident occurred during n wedding in Kan
sas City not long ago. A New York man
"a cousin of the bride-had photographed to
a certain florist in Kansas City to send u
box of flowers TO the house on the morning
of the wedding. Now it happened that
the thrifty merchant also combined the
business of the undertaken with that OF the
florist, and when the flowers reached the
bride they came in a box, labelled on the
outside ''One Female Shroud." OF course
the bride had Mysteries; any self-respecting
bride would. And a great many persons
thought it was a dreadful omen, instead OF
it's being simply n dreadful blunder.-New
York Evening Sun.

The curious device which appears AS a
trade mark above the imprint on the books
of Messrs q. W. Carleton & Co. has long
been familiar 10 the reading public. Placed
upon the title pages of the works Of some of
our more distinctly popular writers, it has
become known to "A wide circle Of readers
and have often heard expressed interest
rs to its origin and significance. 1t has n
rather curious story. ltappeared first upon
the title page Of a Persian poem by Mr.
Thomas Bailey Aldrich entitled 'Ihe
Course OF True Love Never Did Run

publications Of Mr.. Carleton. II was found

They don't pass around the sun at "A
really uniform distance from it, but they
often approach very near in rounding our
great luminary, and then reach away into
space so far that some don't return in hun
dreds and even thousands of years. But
when il comes TO fast travelling the comet
has no successful rival. Our earth is a
pretty lively traveller, covering a good deal
more than million miles "A day in its
journey around the sun. Bat II comet,
when paying its respects to the sun, would
travel at a rate that would make the earth 3
gait relatively about like that Of weary
tramp when passed by the Chicago linn
tied" on the fast railroads.
In the year 1913 a comet visited the solar
system sporting a tail 2OO,OO0,O0O miles
long. II was heading straight for the sun,
and astronomers with betting proclivities
were willing to wager that the pretentious
visitor would at least pass near enough TO
old Sol TO get its tail sc0rched. It got un-
comfortably near the sun, but it merely
whisl<ed its wealth of tail and sailed around
at the rate Of more than $50, 900 miles al
hour, passing from one side Of the sun to
the other in about two hours. This il one
record made in the days Of our father
that hasn't been beaten in our fast going
generation. -ExchGnge.

No single object within the walls Of the
Kremlin at Moscow, that citadel and city

more interest than the famous King Of
Bells, which is said To have been cracked
in the furnace, and now lies at the foot Of

A large piece is broken from the side, but
it still weighs about 100 tons, for it is over

valued at nearly half a million dollars.
The casting took place, accompanied by

spair he and friend named Colby, who
was afterwards killed in the War of the
Rebellion, bored a three quarter inch hole
into white birch tree then about five
inches through, put the hair in and drove
home after it pine plug. The next sum

The Forum, which month after month

subjects that engage the public attention, comes

politics and the armies Of Europe, which con-
sists of two leading articles: one, "Dangers
to the Peace of Europe" by Prof. Edward A.
Freeman, the eminent historian, Who is, per-
hsps, the best authority on the subject. Pro-
fessor Freeman writes a clear explanation of
the danger points and Of the relations of every
European power to every other one, and gives
some interesting insight into the foreign policy
of Great Britain under Lord Salisbury and
Mr.. Gladstone. The other article on the sit
uation in Europe is. "Tbe Armed Truce Of
Europe" by Mr.. William K. Thayer, the we'll
known American student Of foreign affairs,
who has made a fresh study of the subject in
Europe. Mr.. Thayer tells of the exact mill
tary equipment, and the cost thereof, of each
of the great powers.
