The story goes that when the devil was cast out of heaven he fell to earth and broke into several pieces. His head rolled into Spain, his heart into Italy, his stomach into Germany and his feet into France. This is why, says the leg end, the Spaniards are so naughty, the Italians so amorous, the Germans so gluttonous and the French so fond of running after women Chips.

Robbed of Much Merchandise. Clever

Freight train No. II on the Lake Shore
railroad was held up Sunday night between

engineer was compelled, at the point OF a re-

Several cars were broken into and the
stolen goods were loaded into wagons. The

far before they were ordered TO surrender
The gang succeeded In removing several
hundred dollars worth Of goods. The train

CABINET APPOINTMENTS.
OLNEY SECRETARY OF STATE
That was as Expected but His Successor
Caused Astonishment.

The place left vacant at the Presidents
cabinet by the death of Judge Gersham was
filled by the transfer OF Attorney General
Olney to the secretaryshiy OF state, while
Judge Judson Harmon. Of Cincinnati was Sc
lected by the president to succeed Mr.. onley
as head OF the department of justice. The
latter appointment came as a complete sur
prise TO everyone here, and 1t is believed that
The attorney-generalship was tenderea TO
Judge Harmon, only that day.
The selection OF the Cincinnati man Is gen
orally attributed to the influence of Secretary
Carlisle, of whom the new encouragement
is an old friend and associate. II shows once
more the reliance with which the president
places In the judgment OF his secretary OF the
treasury.
II is believed that the attorneys -generalship
was first offered to two or three eminent
New York lawyers, who did not care to re.
linquish their vastly remunerative practices
In order to assume the more arduous duties

the comparative Insignificant salary OF $4,000

years OF age, and one Of the most conspicu.

ment OF ex- Governor Hoadly from his Gin.
cinnati firm on his removal TO New York, Mr..
Harmon took his place at the head OF the firm
of Harmon, Colston, Goldsmith Hoadly, the
last named being the son of Ex-Governor
Hoadly, OF Ohio.
Judge Harmon Is not only recognized as
one OF tho foremost lawyers and iursts of
this state, but Is one Of the most popular
citizens. He was born near Cincinnati 40 years
sgo, has always lived there, and is known by
all. His father, Rev. b. +. Harmon. was a
Baptist minister, well known throughout the
Ohio VALLEY. Judge Harmon graduated at
Denison university, n Baptist institution, at
Granville, o., 10 1866, and began the practice
OF law 10 Cincinnati IN 1869.
He was a Republican till 1872, whea he
Greeleyized. lie was elected superior judge
In 1878, reelected in 1883, and when ex-Goy-
ernor George Hoady went to New York, in
1887, Judge Harmon resigned from the bench
to become the head OF the firm OF Harmon,
Colston, Goldsmith Il Hoadly which repre-
sents several railroads and other corpora
lions, and with which firm he will continue
his connection. When Judge Harmon re-
signed In 1887, Governor Foraker appointed
Judge William Taft, now United States

MILLIONS MADE In WHEAT.
Armour, Rockefeller, Baker, Kent and
Logan the Big Winners.

Logan the Big Winners.
The recent phenomenal rise in the price oi
wheat, probably the greatest ever known in
so short period. caused immense sums Of
money to be lost and won on the Chicago
Board OF Trade.
The general public, so often 1seced by the
glad cry wheat Is going up," were very
chary during the earlier portions OF the bulge
this spring. when inside OF three weeks May
wheat rose fully 80 cents n bushel. But as
each succeeding day passed ami the market
continued TO rise the old fever was aroused
and soon the general public was to be seen
In its old and long deserted haunts around
the board and soon It was the center OF wild
operations.
II seems that the great public pronted more
from the rise In wheat than any other particu-
lar individuals and II seems also that the
great public refuses to prohibit by experience
for they are still Overwhelmingly In the mar.
ket, which is working steadily on the down
grade and every Indication now. points to
their putting their handsome profit back ex-
actly where they got It and going home with
experience, perhaps, but surely to reflect.
Philip ID. Armour, the millionaire meat
man, is said TO have individually netted s5,-
600, 900 on the rise. In addition John d.
Rockefeller, Armour and an unknown New
Yorker were banded together In a gigantic
pool which Is said to have netted between
si2, 1000, 900 and $4,000, 900.
W. T. Baker, president OF the board OF
trade, is said to have won about s2, SOC, ,000
John II. Lyon is credited with profit way up
in the hundred thousands. 8. A. Kent, OF
the Gas Trust. operated on n larger scale and
some say he must have made 10000, 900. F.
g. Logan, the broker, is also credited with a
handsome profit well up toward the seven
figure mark. The number who proflted TO
the extent OF few hundred or a few thous-
ands is probably perhaps beyond any nctnal
computation. PROBABLY the most conspicuous
loser was Edward Partridge.
