 If Superintendent Byrnes would only run down very plausible swindler who has just begun operations in the old Ninth ward, tho janitors of the many apartment houses in that part of the city would sleep better these hot nights, The man is genius in his way, and owes his success to the perfect manner in which he has worked out tho details of his scheme. Yesterday morning when the janiuess of flat house an- swered his ring she was completely be- guiled by his Chesterfieldian manners, which were further enhanced by styl- ish suit of clothes and . glossy silk hat As he looked at tho apartments the man rattled off plausible story that was well calculated to deceive. He wished a flat for his old mother, who was an invalid at present residing in the coun- try. He was wealthy, being in busi. ness in Broadway, and as he wished to make his mothers last days as comfort able as possible, only the best rooms in the house would suit him. The Jani. tress showed her sunniest apartments and the man appeared delighted, He ordered the rooms thoroughly cleaned, and was about taking his departure when tho janitress suggested that 1t was customary to leave a deposit,
 The man put his hand in his pocket, and with an exclamation of nnpatience remarked that he left his office in a hurry and forgot to bring any lnouey with him. Then he remembered that he had check, which of course was just tho same. 1t was for ten dollars, and lie requested tho janitrcss to take three dollars deposit on the rent, one dollar on the keys, and give tho woman two dollars for the cleaning, He would leave the whole amount, only he would have to pay for the moving before he got back to his office. The jAnitress was so impressed with his oifhand man her that she regretted she hadn't four dollars in the house, and felt rather small when she came back and told the man she had only three dollars, He seemed little disappointed at first, but took the money and said ho would trust her for the balance until he returned ir the eyeping The jauitress congratug lated herself upon having secured . good tenant, and it wasn't until the rooms were all as clean as the proyerbial new pin that she took the check to store to have it cashsd As soon as the grocer saw the check he said it was no good as it was not drawn on bank at al.- New York Evening Sun.

W. w. Han, young farmer near Montpelier, enjoyed himself hugely q few days back in watching couple of city girls attempt to water theil' horses at the trough at his place.

Finding that the horses didn't seem to know enough to stick their heads down at the same time they raised the hind wheels one girl remained behind to hold the buggy mp and the other went to the horses heads and tried to pull their uoses down to the water
 After laughing til he shook several boards of the side of the blacksmith shop from where he watched the girls lift on tho buggy and pull on the horses. heads till they were red n the face and almost ready to cry, Will went to their assistance and unchecked the horses
 The young ladies gazed at first in be- wilderment, and then with a kind of a don't-you-ever-tell look at each other calmly tucked the robe around them leaned back in their seats, and, after wait ing for their horses to drink, drove off, l,,.{,,,, XNril1 r, ei+ dpy,,,, ,,, tba ppYuft of the trough and runiinate over the city gal and her way of doing things. -Me Sesto Herald

Political opinion. From Headquarters.

Personally, l believe that the Dem ocrats will carry Indiana, said mem Der of the Republican National Cam paign Committee last night. "But feel that Harrison will pull through in New York State It is a hard fight, though, and as election day approaches the struggle will become fercar.
 Personally, I believe that every day which goes over cur heads, said q member of the Democratic National Campaign Committee, makes it more difficult for Cleveland to carry either New York or Indiana. While there is no uproar about this election, terrible fight is going on beneath the surface.
 Tie foregoing were the expressions of two men yesterday in the two politi- cal national camps. They said that the opinions they gave were conscientious ly based upon their knowledge of the situation. Both men have had wide experience in conducting Presidential fights. Their names are as familiar as those of either of the Presidential can didatss. They added that their views might be changed any day. No 5pin- ion stands just now for more than tEen- ty-iour hours N.

The Dog Got Away.

The dogs of Paris are giving good deal of trouble to the police as well as to their owners, who scarcely dare let them go out of their sight lest they should be bounced updh and taken off tothe Fouriere to be forthwith destroyed There can be no question that in the Very hot weather stray dogs constitute a certain danger It appears, however. from all that is said on the subject. that the new police regulations concern ing dogs are rather heedlessly eeyere the consequence being frequent colli- sions between dog owners and the police The other day, for instance, an almost serious scufile occurred in Paris, the cause of which was q dog The animal was noticed by policeman in the street to be without the regulation inuzzle and was at cnce arrested, if the ex- pfession may be used.
 A woman claimed the animal as her property in presence of a crowd of 500 people. The affair took such lively turn that the police officers were com pelled to draw their sword bayonots in their own defense. The upshot of the matter was that one of the officers was rather severely injured, and that had it not been for the arrival of party of constables on the scene it is probable there would have been serious fighting. In the course of the scufile the dog, the original cause of it, escaped.--leyant Herald

George Bartlett, United States Mar shal at Pine Ridge, who has been in thc Government service on the Sioux reservation for eighteen years, said: t: ''rhe Indians are talking very freely of engaging in a ghost dance again and, despite the contradiction of the agents, l know that there is imminent danger of an outbreak. There are hundreds of ghost shirts among the Indians, and all that is keeping them from engaging in the dance fear of the consequences. They are very much dissatisfied.
 The agents are taking no measures to prevent aa outbreak. They are re- lying on the Indian polices I know the police cannot be depended on. Half of them lean toward the Indians in sentiment, and would undoubtedly join the hostiles The others would assume a neutral position. The trouble, thiAk, is with Agent Brown at Pine Ridge. He knows nothing of the h. dians and nothing of how to deal with them. There are no troops on the res eryation, and the orly way to put down m uprising is to call in troops again as was done two years ago. There are 2s,OOO Indians on the reservation. Of these 1000 are warriors, and fully $500 arc apt to go ito the dance. There will be sn outbreak on the reservation this winter or in the spring, or I'm badly mistaken.

It is confidently asserted by the best posted and most experienced oattlemen of the county that under the most favorable conditions, the loss of cattle during the approaching winter will be 35, or 40 per cent, and should the con ditions prove unfavorable, the loss will be much greater, Sheep men are hunt ing new ranges, and it is asserted that fully one-half the sheep which belong in the county will be driven out. The taxable property for next year will, of course, be that much less. The ex- psnse of running the county govern ment will have to be met, and in order to do 80, it will require good financier- ing.

It will have big coil springs to drive the wheels and he cor tends that it will revolutionize trotting Right under the drivers seat the springs win be located, and it is his intention to have things so nicely adjusted thai when he wishes to go 2:lO gait all he will have to do is to set it at the 2a0 figure and t will do the rest.

The large property will therefore be divided according to the intestate laws, The exact v0lua of tho estate cannot be known until an inventory is taken, but it is estimated to be worth nearly SC coo, 900. The widow and son of the de- cedent, Anna M Knight and Edward c, Knight. dr., are named as the executors.
 No disposition is made of the beautiful park near Collingswood, in Camden, but the offer of the property as a gift to the city has not been withdrawn. Mir Knight spent considerable money in im- proving the grounds, and about four years ago threw them open as public park Later. he offered to give the grounds to the city of Camden if the city would agree to care for and main tain them, but the necessary legislation for the acceptance of the gift has never been obtained. - Philadelphia North American.

There will be six election boxes in each of the polling places this year, and this may lead to confusion The first box will be for the officlal ballots, containing the names of candidates fa- vorsd for all offices. That will be the principal one. There will be a box apiece fer each of the three Constitu- tional amendments. The fifth box will be for the unused tickets, and the sixth for the detached stubs. If you afiix your paster ballot Co the face of one of the Constitutional amendment ballots, you disfranchise yourself from votiI 2 for any officers from President to AL dsrman., It is 8 mistake which may easily happen, aHd you have one chance ia four this year of getting the matter right This is one of the beauties of the Australian system, and simulta- nsously with its discovery there has been total eclipse of the heretofore noisy ballot rsformsrs of the true Aus tralisR brand.
