The comm ssion of Mr.. G. +. A. Last

formation from excellent sources, such as

vas given in all honesty and with good
intentions.
Mr.. Lasts friends believe, however,
that some one who is unfriendly to him
started the rumor that the appointment
has been made, with view of annoying
the governor. anu possibly thus getting
him to change his mind. Some even go
so far as TO intimate that Adjutant-Gen-
eral Barrett lad something to do with
the scheme to injure Mr.. Last. General
Barrett has. it is claimed. posed as the
friend of Mr.. Last, but 1t Is not clear to
all parties concerned that he has been
sincere.
At any rate Mr.. Lasts appointment has
not come and though many of his friends
bellows that it will mats rialize, if it does
not, they will ascribs the responsibility

PROFITS OF LITERATURE

Just what a successful hit in litera-
ture means to an author in dollars and
cents was demonstrated to me a few
days since when l saw a check sent to
Hall Game for nearly Sc, 900 as royalties
on the American sales of The Manx-
man" during the last four months. In
the same manner over $4,000 has been
sent to Stanley Weyman by his Amer
lean publishers as royalties on his books
during the last nine months. What has
been thu far RENTED to Mr.. Du Maurier
is not known, but it is close to ccuracy
to place his revenue from "Trilby" at
S25, 600. 1t was not an unusual thing for
Robert Louis Stevenson to receive $15,-
900 a year from the literary work, and
l remember very well, during the popu-
larity of Little Lord Fauntleroy'' as a
book and play, that Mrs. Burnett's year
ly income exceeded $25. 1000. Mary WI
kens has netted over $1,000 from Penn
brooke" while a close friend of S. r.
Crockett tells me that his income last
year from his writings was over $780,
900.
Literary success is a very profitable
thing without a doubt. When once it is
achieved the truth of the old maxim that
nothing succeeds like success is very
quickly demonstrated to the author. But
only the few reach the coveted goal. A
novel, for example, must sell 5000 copies
before it pays its publisher and begins to
show a profit 10 the author. And When
one considers that not one out of forty
novels ever reach a 5000 sale, the chances
of success will be better understood

4 WOMAN P0OTPAD.
Idiotie Policemen Catch Her al
Work But Make No Arrest
Found in New York.

Detectives Doyle and Pearson last
night captured one of the most notorious
and dangerous female highway robbers
in this country, in an express office at
Sixth avenue and T~wenty-sixth street,
New York, The prisoner is Jessie Lewis,
alias Davis. She is a colored woman,
about thirty-eight years old. She Is
muscular and bears the mark of a strug-
gle in the West. in which her face was
laid open with a razor from the left ear
to the front of her chin.
THE SAND BAG ACT.
AT three o'clock on the morning of
January is, Frank Fell, a messenger of
the Pennsylvania Railroad, while return
ing to his home at No. 152 Railroad ave
nue. from a ball, was attacked on the
corner of Railroad avenue and Grove
street. His assailant used a sandbag
The blow stunned him, but he was con-
scious of someone rifling his pockets.
When he recovered sufficiently to speak,
ne screamed for help. He saw that his
assailant was a woman, and she entered
the basement of a house occupied by
colored people at No. 12S Railroad avenue
Policemen Harrigan and Alderman re-
sponded to his call for help. Harrigan
burst open the front door of the Railroad
avenue house while Alderman forced an
entrance through a rear window. The
woman was finally captured in a ped
on the third floor with all her Clothes on.
STUPID OR WORSE.
For some reason the policemen did noi
arrest her. She said She m,stook Fell
for a man who had insulted her. Fell
said he had been robbed of IS. The police
officers compelled the woman to return
the stolen money and they then departed.
The case was reported to Captain Far
rier the next morning and he sent the
policemen out to find the woman without
delay. She in the meantime had profted
by the stupidity of the police and made
good her escape, leaving behind her a
trunk containing several valuable
dresses. A close watch was kept upon
the trunk, Captain Farrier believing she
would return for 1t. Yesterday morning
it was removed to New York, to an ex-
press office at Sixth avenue and twenty
sixth street. Doyle and Pearson waited
at the express office until closing time.
They were about to depart, when their
lady put in an appearance. They arrested
her and caused her removal to captain
Pickett's precinct in Thirtieth street
Extradition papers are to be appled Tor.
Captain Farrier has preferred charges
against Policemen Harrigan and Acker-
man and it is probable that they will BE
dismissed from the force for allowing
such a dangerous criminal to escape:
She is wanted in Chicago 1or many
crimes of a similar character.

STUFFED APPLES.

Remove the cores from eight pretty
red apples. Put them in a steamer, and
steam Just long enough to make them
soft, and to allow the skin on the top
to slightly curl. While they are steam
ing, chop a quarter of apound of can
died cherries, and about w ounces of
candied pineapple, fine. Put a half cup
of sugar and a cup of water over the
fire to boil; add the chopped fruit and
simmer gently while the apples are
steaming. As soon as the apples are
done, lift them, arrange neatly on a
glass dish, fill the places from which
the cores are taken with the chopped
fruit, heaping it up in the centre. Boil
the syrup down until just a little thick;
add a teaspoonful of vanilla, and If
you chose, four tablespoonful of sherry.
Basic the apples with this syrup until
you have consumed the whole. Stand
them away to cool, and when ready to
serve, heap around and in between the
stiff froth.-Household News.
