have gone poling into trunks and the
wardrobe and looking into corners. She
found that money inside of five minutes.
It was between the leaves of an elegant
big Bible ostentatiously displayed on a
center table. At o'clock she was on
hand TO say:
NOW. you go to Walter Burke and
show him the affidavit. Then get out
search warrant and have it served. In

very tired man.
Mr.. Burke was bit surprised at my
call. He was great deal more surprised
when handed him the affidavit and told
him about the $500 bill and added that
1 should apply for search warrant. He
did not discourage me, though he said
nothing encouraging. It took the officer
an hour and half to find the money.

very solemn meeting in the managers
room. Devon was called down stairs and
informed of the result of the search and
shown the affidavit. Iexpected he would
face the charge as boldly as he had faced
me, but the thing came SO suddenly that
he had no time to work up his nerve. He
did indeed start in to deny everything,
but his demeanor betrayed his guilt, and
he finally wilted. He deserved 10 years
in state prison. but he was not prosecuted.

of us like to have the world know that
we had blood relative who ought to be

can't make out how it all happened.

Sir Walter scott,s Mad Secretary.

In spite of his cunning the mailman IS
easily imposed upon. Of this. which
forms the great safeguard of the sane in
their dealings with maniacs, good illus
tration is contained in Lockhart's life of
Sir Walter Scott. Henry Weber, SCOTS
protege and amanuensis. had been re-
proved by him for indulging in habits of
intoxication.
On the evening after his return from
Edinburgh Scott observed Weher's eye
fixed on him with an unusual solemnity
of expression. On inquiring after his
health Weber rose and said:
''Mr. Scott, you have long insulted me,
and l can bear it no longer. / have
brought pair of pistols with me and
must insist on you taking one of them in
stantly." and with that he produced the
weapons. which had been deposited under
his chair, and laid one Of them on SCOTS
manuscript.
You are mistaken. think" said
Scott. lin your way of setting about this
affair: but no matter. 1t can, however.

Scott and the children. Therefore, if you
please. we will put the pistols in the
drawer till after dinner and then arrange
to go out together like gentlemen.
Weber answered with equal GOODNESS,

the second pistol also on the table.

danger had passed and the people realized

rejoicing, and we doubt not that more than
one heartfelt prayer arose to heaven

Hrsi,sr Day.

1t is with pleasure that we give place
to the following eloquent paragraph from
the proclamation of the governor of
Pennsylvania on Arbor day:
Let the people lay aside for a season the
habitua activity of the day and devote suf-
iicient time thereof to plant a forest, fruit or
ornamental tree along the public highways and
streams. in private and public parks. about the
public schoolhouses and on the college grounds,
in gardens and on the farms, thus promoting
the pleasure, profit and prosperity of the people
of the state. providing protection against floods
Snd storms, securing health and comfort in
creasing that which is beautiful and pleasing
to the eye, comforting to physical lie and ele-
waiting the mind and heart and By associations
and meetingseycite public interest and give en-
couragement to this most commendable work
In the beginning of his proclamation
Governor Pattison alludes to the favor
able changes that have already taken
place in regard to this question since Ar
Dor day was instituted as IA regular oc-
casion for observance in Pennsylvania.
The main change has been everywhere
in the direction of improved public opin-
ion. 1t began first in the public schools
in all the states. This was the best pos
sible beginning. The pupils had holi-
day in which to plant trees in school
grounds and parks. The next step was
to plant trees along public highways.
The planting was always accompanied
with pleasant ceremonial observances
speeches, recitations and music.
Al Al
before the. people the frightful injury
done their farms by stripping off the
timber, especially near the headwaters
of streams. They were set to thinking
of the damage that had already been
done and of ways in which further dam
age might be checked. Then they began
to set out trees on their private grounds,
both fruit and forest trees. Millions of
trees have thus been planted by the
children of those who cut trees down.
A valuable store of literature has ac-
cumulated on arboriculture. There are
now books in plenty that show what
trees are best adapted to given soils. also
what trees will be most profitable in the
commercial way both for nuts and wood
The American eye for artistic beauty
has been immeasurably helped too.
Many farmer who formerly let weeds
and briers run wild and unsightly along
his roadside has cut them all away and
planted rows of beautiful trees. Hedges
of Towering shrubs, clumps of trees
about springs and water sources, already
attest to our awakened interest in arbor-
iculture.
The Wadsworth dispatch. [volume] (Wadsworth, Nev.) 1892-1899, 1893-04-22

1t is mentioned as a fact that the re-
public of Brazil has offered to pay al
the travelling expenses of colored people
from the United States who desire to
settle in Brazil as celonists They will
get their farms free besides. on the
homestead plan, after they get there.
Here is better chance for the black
man than the white man ever had in the
United States. The white people who
colonized America paid their own ex-
penses here and had to whip out the In
dams and establish a. government before
they could begin to really live. All this
has been done in Brazil long ago. If now
the negro has the grit to accept the offer
from Brazil and go there, he can amass
fortune for himself 1t is golden OPP
portunity to prove his claim to be the
equal of the white man.
1t is believed the applications for places
in the marine hospital service will not be
80 numerous after the doctors in the
country know that to get such an Office
they must pass an examination in the
common school branches, particularly in
geography and United States history.
This is an insinuation against the aver
age doctors ability to spell, which we
hurl back with scorn

The Count of Paris says in his mani
festo that only monarchy can give France
a strong and stable government. The
strength and stability of government
depend on the honesty and intelligence
of the people themselves. Where they
have these. any government can be strong
ana stable. Where they have them not,
no government can be strong and stable.

Hard to Please.

A San Francisco man had been in bed for
several months with malady that made
him very nervous and irritable. His wife
and daughter ministered to him assidu-
ously, but were sometimes at their wits
end in trying to satisfy his capricious de-
sires. As the young lady said once, her
father was so unreasonable that he would
scold If an angel were waiting on him"
One night when the mother and daughter
were both thoroughly tired out young
man, friend of the family, was called in
to watch with the sick man for six hours
after midnight. The invalids wife in
structed him about the medicines and es-
pecially cautioned him to be careful about
disturbing the patient.
"He is very irritable" she said. Don't
speak to him except when he speaks to you,
and if he is asleep when the time comes for
him to take his medicine don't disturb
him."
And by the way" she added as she was
about leaving the room, "you may like
something to read. Here is Mark Twain's
'Roughing It. 1t will amuse you, but you
mustn't laugh while reading it, for Mr.
j will fancy you are laughing at him
The young man performed his duties to
the best of his ability, but on going away
in the morning was thanked rather CURLY
by the invalid. AS soon as he was gone
Mr.. j broke OUT
"5ee here, mother" said he, don't ever
send that numskull to watch with me
again"

Come to the EeesGuc.

AS surely as any known effect follows a
cause, just so surely will disease of the
kidneys succeed their inactivity, II that
inaction be not promptly remedled.
Come to the rescue with Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters, which gives healthful
impulse to the action of both the kidneys
and the bladder, without exciting them,
like an unmedicated stimulant. Rendered
active by this genial diuretic and tonic,
they perform their functions thoroughly
and regularly, removing from the system
impurities which beget rheumatism,
dropsy, gravel, Bright's disease, diabetes
and catarrh of the bladder. The contrac-
ton of either one of these formidable
maladies is the penalty exacted by nature
for difference to that plain warming
sluggish action of the kidneys. When
this exists, not moment should be lost
in the use of the remedy indicated. Bear
in mind that the Bitters will relieve with
equal promptitude disorders of the
stomach, liver, bowels and nervous sys-
tenn, and cure or prevent malarial com
plants.
