Spencer were married at Marengo, Craw-
ford county, Ind, the bridegroom at the
time being on his deathbed. About ten
days ago Van Meter and two brothers
were injured by the premature explosion
of blast of dynamite while working in
a quarry near Marengo, his injuries con-
sisting of a broken leg and arm, the loss
of an eye and internal injuries that viii
almost certainly cause his death. The
wounded man and Miss Spencer, had
been for some months betrothed, and
wereonly waiting for an Improvement in

Not So Safe After Au.

"Do you see that tall, spare man lean
ing against the rail over there?" said
James Vance, steward of the Athenian
club. well, I'll tell you little yarn
in which he played an amusing part.
Some years ago Haquette & Haggeman
got in a big safe, all gorgeous with paint
and glorious with impossible landscapes.
Ernest Haquette was very proud of it,
and in his bustling, eager way would
show it to all old patrons of the place,
expatiating upon its merits.
"One evening he was engaged in show
ing party OF gentlemen the wonders of
the safe, and ran on; No burglar could
ever get into that. I tell you. He couldn't
open it in week. It's the safest safe in
this town, for money
"tOh, don't know about that said
that tall man, who was then leaning ON
the bar just as he Is now leaning on the
rail. Il don't think it's SO safe.'
''This startled Haquette a little. No
one had ever questioned that safe before
IN that off hand way. He flushed a lit
tie while the stranger regarded him nom
Chalantly. Haquette felt nettled and at
last blurted out:
''Fn put $500 in that safe and if you
can get it out in six hours you can have
ut. Axes, jim1nies and all tools are al
lowed, but dynamite barrtd.'
"I'n go YOU said our tall friend.
We'll just make it half an hour, and no
tools however
"Haquette promptly dumped $500 into
a bag, put the bag into the safe and
turned the combination There you
are, he said defantly.
'Tbe tall man got down on his knees,
put an ear against the safe where the
t,rmblers work and began turning the
knob of the combination. He didn'tsay
a word, but steadily clicked away. Ha-
quette began to sweat and step around
"In twenty-three minutes the safe was
open. Our friend over there took the
bag of money, handed it to the dunn
founded Haquette and said cynically: Il
don't want your nancy. They salted
me for little job like that once. My
name is Ensign. San Francisco Ex-
aIuiner.
