began.

Right there, SIR answered both
the men at once, pointing toward q
cluster Of bushes about thirty feet
away.
About five minutes elapsed. when
there was q frightened exclamation
from the diggerA and q hat was pro-
duced, later the badly decomposed re-
mains of = man was brought to the
surface.

fenced to serve term of thirty years.

lowing the day Of John Hiram's disap-
pearance he had found his coat and hat

was strange circumstance, - he in
variably hung those articles of apparel
on the hall rack. Therefore my uncle
had become convinced that with q
trace Of the anger still haunting his
brain and an uncomfortable suspicion
hanging over him, he had arisen in the
night, put his hat and coat ON and
sought the body Of the man he had
killed and buried it in the garden.

GREAT BILLIARDS.
When Schaefer Ran . Thousand Points
Three Successive Nights.

! When Schaefer Ran . Thousand Points
Three Successive Nights.
| If Schaefer's run of 300 was made on
we suppose it was. it is the highest run
ever made in q public match, though It
has been beaten, we believe. in private.
In q match with Vignaux in New York
in 1885 Schaefer made run of go and
until his Paris performance this was
the best on record. But in the opinion
Of this paper Schaefer's run Of 300 was
not his most sensational performance
with the cue. Two years ago the
Wizard set out to play 5000 points,
1000 night, with ]. B. F. McCleery ct
San Francisco, conceding the odds of .
discount. This was the tnree-ban
straight-rail game. Schaefer won the
bank and missed. McCleery missed
and Schaefer made 4; McCleery followed
with 2; Schaefer missed again and Mo
Cleery made IS. The score was then Is
TO o in favor of the Pacific Coast cham
pion. A very difficult shot confronted
the Wizard, bat he made it, got the
balls together on the rail, nursed them
in the gentlest manner, carried them
four times around the table, and
stopped only when he had made 900
points. The positions of the balls were
marked on the cloth, and the match
was adjourned until the next evening.
Then Schaefer went at them again and
ran thousand more. On the follow
ing evening the same extraordinary
feat was repeated and the game ended
with 5000 points for Schaefer and Is
for McCleery. This match was for 81
500 side, and it seems to us that
Schaefer's nerve, skill and endurance
make this contest the most remarkable
in the history of billiards. In 1880 Wig
naux made run Of 1851 at this game,
in match with Slosson, and this was
regarded as phenomenal playing. But
Schaefer made nearly twice as many
points without miss, though the fact
is to be recorded that the Schaefer-
McCleery game was played on a 41Sxs
table. In game of this sort, however,
the size OF the table cuts little figure.
1t Is no harder to nurse the balls along
the rail on a standard table than on one
a trifie smaller. In open play, how
ever, the size of the table makes a vast
difference. Post-Express.

would undoubtedly be popular with th

poverty and pauperism in the nation. II
would undoubtedly be popular with the
laboring classes, and would encourage a
thrifty habit among this portion Of the
population. On the same lines, separate
funds might slso be provided for sick bene-
hts and accident Insurance."
1T will he noticed Tint our contem-
porary does not favor the exclusive
privilege of tho government to carry on
a system OF insurance, On the lines sug-
gestea above the system appears on
tlrely feasible though there is no great
public demand for its adoption. The
only special recommendation is the
probability that it would lower the
rates Of insurance. On the other hand
it would create another great depart
mont at Washington and might open
tho way for any amount of jobbery
through the various channels in which
tho business would necessarily be trans
acted. The great insurance companies
OF the present day are SO we'll managed
and there is that degree Of confidence
in their resources that there have Eean
no universal complaints about the sys-
tenn. Besides, insurance is not a COM
mon necessity like railway transporta.
ton, and thus far the government has
never iutsrfered with the business more
than to place the necessary safeguards
for tho public.
