$IO,OOOO FOUND.
Discovery Made Under the Cushfo

Discovery Made Under the Cushion
 of Pullman Car Seat.
 CHICAGO, Feb. 9.-Ten thousand dol lars, half of which was in bills and half in government bonds, was found on Satur- day evening by Henry Prentice, an em- ploye of the Pullman Car company. The money was concealed beneath the cush- ions of a seat in the sleeping-car "Atlanta. " The car had been hauled into the shops at Pullman for repairs, and Prentice was in- specting the coach to see what was needed. He began by turning up the cushions in the seats. When he reached the center of the car, he pulled out cushion that ap- peared to be badly worn.s As he did SC two packages fell from the seat to the floor of the car. Prentice picked them up, and on opening the first one was startled to see that it contained a large number of brand new national bank notes. A count showed that they amounted to ,00O. An inspection of the other package brought to light like sum in government bonds. Prentice took the money and bonds to General Manager Sessions, in whose possession they now are. No report o1 the loss has been made to the company and the officials have notified the police department of the find. It is thought that the funds have been placed in con | cealment by some one who came int possession of the money in a crimina manner, and by some means was prevented from removing the packages, owing tt l fear of discovery.

THE nnANFonD ELKorIo,
Which SGovcrnorss Morris Dzd Not Cail-Walter Feote Elected by the Republican,.

Which ~Govcrnorss Morris Dzd No,
 Cal-Walter Foote Elected by the
 Republican,.
 An election was held in Branford yester- day for the offices of town clerk and treasurer and judge of the probate court. One fact of interest connected with the event is that the democrats, and especially the Hartford papers of that political weakness, said, and were quite positive of it, too, that Judge Morris, sometimes called governor, would call the election. But in spite of this confidence Governor Bulkeley, who has had more experience in that matter. performed that act of official duty. The candidates were Walter Foote democrat nominated by the republicans who was elected by about lSS majority over John P. Callahan of the democratic and citizens ticket. Mir Foote was de- clared elected, but an objection was raised by Lawyer Zacher to the legality of NIT. Foote's election over the fact that his name was not written twice on the ticket for town treasurer and clerk.
 The objection probably will not be of avail.
 MT. Foote is e man of about thirty-fiye years of age and engaged in the drug busi- ness and having boot and shoe store as we'll He has never held public office before, excepting when appointed by the selectmen at the death of Mir H. H. Stead man, to succeed him as town clerk and treasurer

Imprisoned Five Days-Terrible Suf- fering From Thirst and Hunger. NANTIcoKF, Pa., Feb. 0.-The three mi ners, Cragle, River and Shellank, who were imprisoned in the Grand Tunnel colliery last Wednesday by flood of water which broke upon them from an old working which the foreman, Thomas Lewis, let loose upon them by a blast, and from which three others narrowly escaped, were rescued alive at o'clock this morning, the steady working of the pumps having reduced the water sufficiently to allow men on rafts to float across the gangway and reach the place where they were. They were suffering from thirst only, and did not feel the bangs of hunger in any way They were wild with joy when their res cuers reached them, and hugged and kissed them frantically. Milk was given as nour- ishment.
 At half-past 5 o'clock they were carried upon improvised stretchers across the water upon the shoulders of men wading. The place where they found safety was but six feet above the mark reached by the water, and this small space at the head of a cross heading was their refuge until help came. They neither slept nor moved from their narrow quarters. They were taken from the mine to their homes soon after 6 o'clock. The little village is wild with joy over the escape.

 It is the general opinion that to-day the two houses will come to some amicable agreement, either the house will waive its claim for the omission of the word f1ate' as characterizing the election of November 4, or the senate will come down from its high horse and yield to the demand of the house.

over twenty-fve years, and makes a spec
ialty of bear hunting. He ia now in Kansas
City recuperatiuc from his latest experience
with the animals, says tho Kansas City

Yule was SO badly torn that he concluded
to come here, where he has relatives, and
spend ths summer while he ia undergoing
treatment for his injuries. Yule tells the
following story of the adventure which
nearly cost him hls life.
II was up near the headquarters of tho
Tumiche creek n day early this spring,
when the snow was going Oft rapidly. 1t
was rather warm for the season, and very
sloppy and muddy. Near the top of a hill l
Eoticed II bear track, which l knew had
been made tho night before, and followed
it until l saw whore it entered into Q cave
or cleft in the rocks.
"From the general nature of the ground
| knew that the hole was not deep, SO l de-
to smoke tho old fellow out. l
built a fire at the mouth of the hole, and it
had barely got to gong before u big Gina
mo over as he ran. i quickly got his gun
and pumped lead into him as he ran, but
while doing this another bear came out of
the hole and almost ran oyer me.
II gave him a shot, but instead of run
ming off he gave fight and knocked my gun
from me at the first blow. I had my knife,
and he had a hard ~tussule. but he fell dead

found myself lying in the dead bears

Roas, Monkey Better Than Duck.

"The most delicious thing 1 ever ate was
roast monkey" said a drummer at the An
derson, who occasionally takes a trip
through the tropics. "Talk about chicken
and turkey, or even canvasback duck, they
are not equal in favor or tenderness to a
young monkey. The natives in Spanish
America are very fond OF them and never
hesitate about eating them. They scoop
out holes in the ground and make a small
bake oven in which they roast them. Some
times the animal is boiled, but no matter
how prepared the meat is always a palata-
Bile dish."-Pittsburg Dispatch.
