MADE MONEY.

A Gang of Incendinries Arrested in st Paul
Charged With Burning Buildings for Their
Insurance-Clevcr Work ofa Detective.
ST. PAUL, Dec. 1.-One of the most
diabolical conspiracies ever co%ncocted
was brought to a focus tonight and Gull
minated in the arrest Of agang of incen.
diaries, who for over a year have made a
regular business of setting fire to houses
and stores in various parts of the city,
for the purpose of securing a portion of
the insurance money. The scheme was
unearthed by the clever work If the
Thiel Detective Agency, whose men
gained the confidence of the gang and
nabbed them in the very cot Of apply.
ing a lighted match, which was intended
to destroy the property. As long ago as
last October the insurance agents of St.
Paul became convinced that many of
the numerous fires here were of an in.
cendiary origin. A meeting of the
agents was held. at which j. Quincy
Hoar, OF the German Insurance 90
was appointed to take charge of the
matter and detect the rascalsif possible.
Detectives were put on the case and
finally secured the arrests. Detective
Floyd, after having seoureda confession
from Morris Michael that he had started
five fires on the West Side, arranged
with Michael toEfre another house and
share the insurance which he secured
on it. At 8:15 tonight the department
was called on. and on arrival found
Michael under arrest, charged with in
%cendiarism. An uncle Of Morris Michael
was also arrested, his house having been
burned and the insurance money di-
vided recently. Three other members
OF the gang will b. arrested later. Nor.
ris Michael told the detective that he
formerly lived in Chicago under another
name, and while there made lots of
money by starting fires for q. share of
the insurance money.

CHAPTER XXI.
stTAGTFp rHcc ~

The expedition that Byng and Brydon
had planned, and OF which the ride to
Batch Serai had been only the forerunnsr,
was now on the point of departure There
were half dozen of them altogether, and
they were taking with them cart drawn
by two stout ponies, which conveyed bell
tent for Themselves, and picket tent for
their servants, besides rugs and other i'm
Pedlments. They were going, as byng
laughiugly remarked, like all other fash
ionable people, into the country for Easter.
They had got d weeks leave, and the pro-
gramme was TO make their way up to Sim
pheropol by easy marches, and see as much
as they could of that and any other towns
before their return. They were TO camp
out, and so be thoroughly independent OF
hotels, while as for pro isions there would
be no difficulty whatever il procuring them.
1t was very pretty little tour, and many
of them often looked back In after days to
the free life they led, and the weeks fun
they had when they were campaigning in
Russia on their own account, when there
were no colonies or commander-in-chisf to
trouble them, and the only discontented
man of the half dozen was the man who
had the middle watch. 1t was necessary
that one Of them should always be on guard
at night, not that they feared either at
tack or robbery for themselves, but there
was always the chance Of one other of the
ponies getting loose and strayIng a little
FROM their encampment, in which case his
recovery would be very problematical.
Well, l hope you fellows will have
good time,h said the adjutant, who, with
two or three of their brother officers. had
congregated about the mess-room door TO
see the expedition start by the time you
come back we shall, most likely, have heard
something about when we are TO embark

a lot Of ships it took TO bring us here.
Wonder whether they will take home the

Istenoe Its Graceful Rival.
The bicycle world has its two schools
now, the old and the new, just like the
ology and other branches of learning The
conservative element is mounted on the
old style machine, with one tall and one
small wheel, while the ''lberals" use the
'safeties." The former kind was, and to
some extent still is, known as the "ortli.
nary" but an incident will show that this
is a misnomer.
A man lately went to a big establishment
near Central park which does large bust
ness In renting bicycles to riders and asked
for machine. The day was such fine
one that there was n great demand fol
wheels, and the would be customer was
told that there wasn't bicycle In the
place; all had been rented. The young
man. much disappointed, asked IL they
didn't have any kind of an old machine, SC
that he could take spin. Yes; If he was
willing to take high one he could have
one of those. When he asked for bicycle
there few years ago tall one was inva
riably brought out unless he asked spe
officially for safety"
| visit to Central park on pleasant
day will show how much more popular tht
"safeties" are than the old kind. Often
dozen low machines will be seen to one tai
one. From an aesthetic point of view
there is no comparison between the two
makes. The old kind is exceedingly grn ce
full, and the rider seems to skim along OF
a single big wheel. The man on SQUAT,
safety looks mean beside his brother, wht
is two feet above him. Beauty, however
is yielding to utility, for men who hav,
ridden both kinds of wheels almost nj
1 ways pronounce the new kind by far tn,
more satisfactory.
To begin with, learning to ride a tall bi
cycle means lots of bruises and torn cloth
Ing, not to mention the vexation of having
people laugh at your mishap. The tyro OF
the safety runs much less risk of falls, al
though he is sometimes cautioned TO bt
more careful by finding himself sprawlinl
on the road. Even an expert rider on
tall wheel is likely to take header" Al
any time, for small stone or gravel il
his path often dismounts him. He mus
keep sharp lookout on the road, Will,
his companion on the lowly safety" ad

whom they pass.
In rough places the man on the homel,
machine may rush, where the other has t.
dismount and push his machine like {
baby carriage Going down hill the new
style Of bicycle is also superior, the danger
of IA fall being so much less. 1t would b,
suicidal for the wheelman who is perchet
on regular" to put on his brake Will,
coasting down hill, but the other man car
do it with perfect safety.
In point of speed the advantage is ais,
with the machine the wheels of which ar
of equal size. In fact the "safeties" hay,

cyles contests, as II it were as unfair I,
