But at last the hinges gave way to
the brutal but silent attacks of the
jimmy where the fla had bitten and
gnawed, and Joe, quickly forcing the
inner drawers. turned his buIlseye on
the contents.
Welt" he said. and then he swore.
"Arter all, nothin but q pile o. dirty
parchment not worth a crown, !" and
he angrily turned over the bundles or
deeds which represented tens Of thou
sands Of pounds.
But as the last drawer slid open q
chuckle escaped him. There lay a bum
die of crisp Bank OF England notes,
which Mr.. Timpany had received on
the completion of a conyeyancing mat
ter after Office hours, on behalf OF his
client, too late to pay into the bank.
Stufing the notes into his pocket, he
gathered MP his tools and prepared to
depart. To his great joy, he saw upon
the table a bottle of Tsrt wine and a
tumbler.,
"Oh. amt q kind he soliloquized,
Ito perwide refreshment as we'll as

tureen, a really | don't like drinkin
port out of a tumbler. Reckon he's too
thirsty for wine glasses an mops it up
here on the Q. T."
And taking up the bottle Mr.. Rem
shaw placed It to his lips and drank and
drank, until he had drained it to the
dregs.
Replacing the bottle ON the table, he
picked mp his tools. He was a bit tired
after his exertions, though he had not
felt IL 80 Enthusiastically as now.
He slid into a chair to rest for a mo-
ment. He felt quite sleepy. II there
had been more than half q bottle of

ser matter, SO sleep-eep-eepy! Ahool"
And he yawned loudly.
He essayed to rise, but could not.
For a moment he felt d thrill of fright,
but 1t died away in. a deep and drown
ing slumber. His arms sank upon the
table and his head between them.
And there Ave hours later MIR. Tim
pany, trotting down in his dressing
gown, found him. For a moment he
started, then he said:
My friends a man of his word. |
thought he was, though / ! began to give
him up. So the glass bottles on the
wall, the bulldog, the electric bells and
the iron shutters all failed me- But
my own idea-the drugged bottle of
wine which I've left in this room ever
since this gentleman last sentence ex-
pired-has done its work admirably"
And then Mr.. Timpany trotted up
stairs for that patent alarm whistle and
woke up all the sleepers in the locality
except the burglar, who slept on for
several hours more and awoke to find
himself seated ON a hard deal board in
q police station cell.
He is now commencing q term Of 10

reflection is that it's "all through do

Much of the old joyousness of the
Irish has vanished. The old stories and
legends r rarely told now; politics
and trade absorb all the conversation.
The narrative of bygone glories and
sorrows, OF st. Patrick and Brian, of
the great O'Neil and of the Geraldines,
and 1888 and the famine, have given
place to United Ireland, The Nation and
the yulgarities of Mick McQuade.
The crossroads are deserted where
formerly in the long summer evenings
the boys and girls gathered to dance to

may still see the girls milking the cows

gendered bitter controversy. From that
time until 1874 little was added to hui
man knowledge of the southern frigid
zone, when the British ship Challenger,
under command of Captain Mares of the
royal army, during her voyage around
the world in the interest of science, en-
tered the antarctic circle and secured in
teresting and valuable data.
So far as Is known human beings have
never wintered inside the antarctic cir
Gle, and but two or three landings OF q
few moments duration have been made.
But enough has been learned 10 show
that the cold Is much more intense and
the ice formation vastly greater than in
the northern polAr regions. Towering
mountains, covered with unmelting ice
and snow, rear then majestic heights
against the wintry sky, shutting ont
from human vision the wastes Of land on
sea and ice that lie beyond.
To penetrate this forbidding region il
the task that DR.. Fred A. Cook Of
Brooklyn has set for himself. Dr.. Cook
was the ethnologist Of the peaty expedi.
ton in 1801-92, and his experiences VIM
qualify him for this hazardous under.
taking. He proposes to buy . steam
whaler and fit her ont for . three years
cruise in the southern seas. On the
decks Of the steamer win be carried two
hfeboats. One Of these viii be large
enough to cross the stormy waters be-
tween the South Shetland islands and
South America. The other, d smaller,
will be built for navigating through the
ice.
As the seasons are reversed in the
southern hemisphere, the months Of De-
cember, January, February. and March
will be the season of exploration. 1t is
DR.. Cooks purpose to- sail from New
York about Sept. I, thence to the Falk-
land islands TO ~replenish coal and pro-
visions. From Falkland islands the
course win be direct to Terra Louis
Philippe, where he win leave the larger
lifeboat with provisions sufficient to
reach Falkland islands, to be used Ii his
steamer is lost His movements after
leaving Terra Louis Philippe win de-
pend upon the condition Of the vast ice
packs drifting around the polar ocean at
the mercy Of the winde. His intention
is to take the FIRST opening and tepil to the
most southerly point, attainable, where

The Murder of Agent Crawford.

Sup't Price, of the Allegheny Val.
ley's river division, has started a sub.
scription among the employees of that
division for the benefit of the wife Of
John Crawford, the agent at Fox
burg, who was murderously beaten
by loafers while in the discharge of
his duties last Friday night, dying
from his injuries within SO hours.
The employees are responding gener.
ously, and Mrs. Crawford will no
doubt receive handsome sum. The
young couple have been married only
about year, aud few weeks ago
went through the sad ordeal of bury
ing infant children, twins. The mur.
dered agent was young man, being
only % years of age.
Samuel Mock and James McKenna
are 10 Jail at Clarion on the charge
of numbering Crawford. McKenua
denies having struck Crawford.
Mock admits striking him, but claims
it was done in self.defense. Their
stories do not agree with what is
known of their previous conduct.
They we're loungiug about the depot
on Friday night, making themselves
offensive. Crawford ordered them
out. When he went out Of the depot
to meet the night express, Mock
struck him in the face with his fist,
and some one gave him blow on the
back Of the head with a weapon of
some kind, and this blow caused
Words death. Mock claims that
he and Crawford we're good friends,
aud when heard of the latter's death
he cried bitterly -Franklin Ne1OS.
Samuel Mock was born in High.

he has lived all his life. He is near.

Death of Mrs. q. w. Clark.

Again this community IS called
upon to mourn the loss of another of
its old residents. Last Sabbath, May
18th, 1893, Margaret, wife of Capt. G.
w. Clark, departed this life at the
residence of her daughter, Mrs. VIM.
Thomson, at Nebraska, this county.
Until few days before her death
Mrs. Clark had been in her usual
health and had gone to her daughters
on visit of few days. Wednesday
she was taken suddenly i'll with her.
MIA and fingered till the Sabbath fol-
lowing, when death relieved her of
the intense suffering she had endured.
Mrs. Clark was a native of County
Tyrone, Ireland, where she was born
July %, 1924, and where she was
married Dec. 4, 1849 to Capt. G. w.
Clark, who still survives her.
In company with her husband and
others she migrated to this country
in 1852 and settled near Pottsville,
Pa. From there they came about 25
years ago and settled on the farm in
Tionesta township, where they have
continued to reside. OF Scotch Irish
descent, her maiden name being Liv.
ingstone, she displayed the character.
istics that are peculiar to that people.
Warm hearted and affectionate, and
possessing clear intellect and calm
judgment, she endeared herself to all
who knew her. Naturally of a devout
spirit she early connected herself with
the Presbyterian church in Ireland,
and always remained a consistent
member of that church.
When death came she was ready.
Anticipating the probable fatal ter
mination of her disease from the first,
she expressed her perfect submission
to the will of her Heavenly Father.
She longed t. go and be with her Saw
ior, expressing only the regret that
her husband, with whom she had
lived so happily for A years, would
be left so lonely without her. Truly
a noble, good mother Of Israel has
fallen. She will be missed. Deep sor-
row will fill the heart, not only of her
own family, but of the many warm,
true friends whom she had gathered
about her. They sorrow not as those
who have no hope. She has gone to
her reward. May He, who was the
comfort of her last hours, as through
out her life, comfort them. She leaves
behind, besides her many friends, her
husband, and seven children, all OF
whom are married and reside In this
vicinity. Twenty-three grand child
rem also survive her.
The funeral services were held on
Tuesday, May 3Oth, in the Presbyter-
ian church at this place, and were
conducted by her pastor, Rev. j. V,
McAninch. Her remains, followed
by large concourse of relatives and
friends, were laid to rest in Riverside
Cemetery.
