Artless Childhood,

One of the artless and attractive
characteristics of children is their easy
intimacy with Heaven and the Deity
When little mite at Sunday school or
out of it, indeed. is asked question
whose answer is beyond him he is very
apt to fall back upon the Maker of
Heaven and earth, often with most
amusing incongruity. A little girl who
wanted to go out and play one Sunday
recently was told she might sit on the
stoop but could not go into the street
She trundled her little chair out ac-
cordingly, but at the end Of a few min
utes trundled it back again. There
is nobody out there but Dod.'' she an
nounced, land I tan't see him, so
tummed in
Another little girl, six-ycar-old,
who could not play a note, seated her
self at the piano to entertain a caller
waiting for her mother.
''Shan I play for you?' she inquired,
with much affectation of manner.
''Would you like to hear a waltz?''
Eyes," replied the visitor, very
much. What can you play?'
SWELL" was the answer, with a COM
placent toss of the head, II can play
two or three, but my favorite waltz is

FrlEhtful Symptom.


Nobody went to the worlds fair
without learning something. Indeed,
the moro the visitor knew before, the
moro he learned. One man made a
startling discovery about himself.
He was gentleman from the far cast
in attendance upon the congress of re-
ligions, where he was seated upon the
platform. Presently a man who sat
near him perceived that he was get
ting uncomfortable about something
or other He shifted uncasily in his
chair, and now and then pursed up his
lips and expelled his breath slowly.
BY and by he leaned over to this OBJ
servant neighbor, and whispered that
he thought he should have to go out.
'What is the matter?'' asked the
neighbor.
IT do not know" said the Oriental.
"SomethiHg is wrong. do not know
what to make of it. See how my
breath smolxesv'
He exhaled a long breath-a cloud Of
white vapor show what he meant.
He had never seen his breath before,
and was greatly relieved when tho
cause of the phenomenon was ex.
planned to him.-Y outh's Companion.

Somebody Bought tine Editor Drink

The editor OF the Pullman daily Bill

not hire watchman, who will pay more
attention to the Mp. depot. The writer
wishes to inform the editor that the

does.
But, as the editor only stays sober long
enough to change the date on the Bill OF

SHOOTING IDEAS.
Prof Snyder, Of the Public School, Talk:
of School Matters.
Names Of the Pupils who Ranked High.
est at the Examination.


We as patrons aud teachers oft n
think Of the queetiou, "What should be
the aim OF teaching, what should be
taught and what methods OF presenting
a subject should be used?' But, how
ever much We may differ concerning
subjects and methods, we all agree that
one OF the main ideas Of school is to
teach a love for good books A thirst
for mental nourishment exists and if
! pupils do not get what is pure, whole
aome and healthful, they will in some
way manage to read the himsy, sensa-
tional pernicous stuff which tends to
corrupt the taste and lead astray the
mind of the child. When we understand
how boys and girls may be influenced
| by the looks they read; when we realize
that the compaulonship with the best
thoughts Of our best writer's causes the
reader to forget his own ills and to enter
into sympathy with the outside world
and INTO fellowship with all that is
worthy in life, we begin to understand
how important becomes the work Of the
teacher in encouraging the ting habit
aud in fostering a taste for good litera-
ture. When we remember that good
homei are almost destitute of good

SAFE CRACKERS.
The Northern Pacific Safe Blown open
by Burglars,
Trey Make a Good Haul, and Leave no
Clue.

A wrecked safe, the heavy steel door
blown ten feet away from the body oi
the safe, the valuabes gone, and papers
scattered over the floor was the scene
that greeted the eyes of Sol Kitchen as
he entered the Northern Pacific depot
Thursday morning.
Again had burglars made success Of
their undertaking in this city, the Nor
thern safe having been blown open in
almost the same manner as was the Un-
ion Pacific safe a couple Of years ago.
The burglars had first broken into the
Gender x Drinkwater blacksmith shop,
on Grand street. where they had OBJ
tanned the bits, drills, etc. needed in
drilling into the safe. After entering the
depot through window, the cracknen
bored l4-inch hole through the safe
door, and through this a quantity Of
black powder was forced, the explosion
OF which was sufficient to tear the door
from its fastenings. The concussion also
Jared the pendulum from the clock, and
the tme-piece had stopped at 2 ;25, there
10y bearing mu e testimony to the hour
of the deed.
From the safe the burglars had taken
$l06.59 in cash, besides couple OF ex-
press packagee, one OF which contained
six cut opals belonging to VIII Hamp-
ton. They also took Agent Keeney's
private papers, inCludina deeds, policies,
etc. After ransacking the depot and ex-
press office for further Yaluables the
burglars went to the residence of Mrs
Crapper, short distance from the depot,
where they entered the kitchen by reach-
ing through broken window and un-
locking the door, and proceeded to make
an early breakfast from the eatables they
had in store. They also went through
the pockets of the different garments
hanging in the room, and from a cloak,
yeIonging to Miss Sofia Matson, a young
lady friend OF Mrs. Crapper, who was
visiting at the house, took $50. They
carried away quite quantity of pro-
visions and a number of articles OF
clothing.
There is no clue to the burglars, and
the officers have not the slightest trail to
follow, and another mys' cry has been
added to Pullman's already long list.
While several theories have been adj
vanced, the most plausible is that some
where in the city is harbored gang Of
thieves, and that the same hand has
committed the more daring OF the several
depredatons OF the past two years.
Some profess to believe that both depot
safe robberies, and the Artesian hotel
robbery and Cooper bear the imprint OF
the same touch. The excitement OF one
deed is no sooner allayed than the pub
liz is startled by the announcement Of
