How the Friends of French Thief Got
Themselves Into Jail

How the Friends of French Thief Got
Themselves Into Jail.
Some years ago the friends of Par
isian thief adopted decidedly unique
method of carrying on clandestlne
correspondence with while he was
awaiting trial. One day the iailcr was
visited by the prisoners bctrothcd,
who asked him to give her lover an cn-
vclope. This upon being opened was
found to contain simply small lock of
her hair, around which was folded Il
leaf of = book. The iailer did not con-
slider it worth his while to deliver this
souvenir to the culprit, and therefore
threw it aside.
a day or two later similar inclosure
WAS handed in at the prison gate and
shared the fate Of the predecessor In
tie course Of Il week another was loft
bT the sarOe person. This aroused the
suspicion OF the governor Of the prison,
tG whom had been detailed the circurn-
stances. lie determined to Investigate
the meaning, and accordingly first ex-
manned the printed leaf. This lie
found was torn from q novel and con-
tHinod tw2nty-Si:i lines on each side.
lie thcn turned his attention To the
h@ir and discovered that there were
twenty-siH pieces Of unequal lanath.
ThiS puzzled him for awhile, and then,
suddenly jumping to the conclusion
that there must be some connection be-
tNcrn the numbers OF the printed lines
AID th2 number of hairs, he laid each
o. the latter along the line of the page
tlcy respectively reached, bcginniar
with the shortest hair at the top of the
leaf
After changing them about several
times he discovered that each hi:lr
pointed to a different letter, and Che com
b-nation TINS produced formed a SLANG,
sc lt"rce, by means Of which the pris-
O,}Cr was given t. understand that his
friends h&d aScertGincd the day on
wlich hc WIS to he taken to court and
were determined to make a bold at
tempt to rescue him as soon as he made
his appearances.
Taking the cue the governor adopted
evCry prccautiDn to frIls1rItc the we'll
l3id Dlaas>of t.Ia outsiders; the attempt
WAS made, and as a natural consequence
the c0nSpirGtoi's soon found themselves
ir Che Same condition as the one Tor
whom they had planned the rcscue.-

REASONS for the support of Grover
Cleveland by Democrats are not very
numerous. Reasons for his support by
Republicans, there are none at all. And
reasons to Democrats for not supporting
him are numberless. Among them here
are few enunciated by Mr.. Dana, of
the New York Sun:
1. Because Grover Cleveland is not Jeffersoni-
an Democrat.
IL Because he is not Democrat at all, but first
last and exclusively promoter of Grover Cleve-
land.
Ill Because, though elected President of the
United States as Democrat his Administration
was not conducted for the establishment of Dem
Ocratic ideas for the benefit Of the Democracy,
but for the personal aggrandizement of Grover
Cleveland and the exatation of his own preposter-
GUS self-concet.
". Because, in .ursuit of his own cranky and
whimsical notions, he adopted the anti-DemOcrat-
ic Chinese system of literary examinations as the
test of admission into the Civil Service of the Gov
ernment.
V. Because he wrecked the Democracy in 1888
by interfering into the platform the doctrine of
Free lrdue, 10 Ue redliZeu through rree-Irdue
reform of the tariff to the exclusion of every other
reform thereof
VI. Because he is now protesting to be devoted
to the anti Democratic Australian scheme for the
abolition of the well-established Democratic policy
of universal suffrage.
VII. Because, in the language of Mr.. Tilden,
'he is the most selfish politician l have ever
KNOWN"
VIII. Because, under his lead, if he could lead
anything but the schemes of his own ignorant,
narrow and fruitless mind, the Democracy would
be led to fatal defeat.

| The teachers of this and adjoining townships
met In the Powhatan school building, Saturda,
last, for the purpose of organizing teachers
association. Mr.. j. E. Bigger was chosen chair
man, and proceeded to the election of officers
After the reading of paper followed by discussion
of the same the society adjourned to meet in foul
weeks, at this place.
Mr.. and Mrs. Potts. of Parkersburg, are visiting
friends here. Mrs. Potts was formerly teacher
in the schools of this place.
Columbus Day will be celebrated here by the
citizens, school, and j. o. A. NJ, who will on that
day present the school with flag. A good time is
anticipated, and all are invited to come. The
railroads will sell excursion tickets.
A little son of George and MOlle McA1urry, aged
five weeks, died Wednesday of last week, and was
buried Thursday, in the Cemetery north of town
Charlie and Ed. LaRoche, of Bellaire, were in
town Friday of last week looking after some organs
that they have in the vicinity.
McMurry Bros Touring MILL which has been un-
dergoing repairs the past week, was running in
full blast Monday, and turning out some fine
flour.
DIR. Reamer, son James, and Mrs. DOrcas Nc.
Murry have returned from their Eastern trip, well
pleased with their visit in Baltimore and sight
seeing in Washington.
This town is small in size, but judging from the
number of its societies. should surely be mighty in
power. We have J. o. A. NJ, W. C. 7. u. Odd
Fellows, Masons, a Christian EndeavOr, an Ep-
worth League, a Teachers Association, Reading
Circle, Ladies' Aid Society, and a Missionary
Society. We know of no town the same size that
can compete with US in this respect.
E. E. Workman, of Captina, @. E. Ruble, R. S.
and J. B. Brice, of Dillies Bottom, were in town
Saturday attending the association.
You may get ready for ride on thd P. o. V. &

less than two weeks. ME-,
