1nesc men are possessed OF broad vein
e laugh on each other.
In the summer of 1878 James ".
Waterman was night operator for the
Atchison, Topeka d Santa Fe road at
the little station Of Lakin, Kan. His
principal duty was to throw sack OF
mail matter on and take care of one
thrown off the through night trains,
which had no occasion to stop at the
little prairie station.
One unusually warm night he un-
dressed down to his underclothes, for
as there are only two families in town
he was not likely to have any callers.
He became very sleepy, and proceed
ed to take little nap before the half
past one o'clock train from the west
came through. He had taken off his
pants and very carefully hung them
over the back of a chair near table on
which he was to take his ''snooze."
The 'snooze" ended IN a snore. from
which he was only awakened by the
aforesaid train as 1t gave short cross
ing whistle about three hundred feet
from the depot.
Jumping up, dazed and, half asleep,
and knowing that the train slackened
its speed only enough to allow the mail
sacl1 to be thrown on, he grabbed what
he supposed was the sack and threw it
into the car, and with an easy con-
science went back into the depot to put
on his clothes, when. to his horror, he
discovered that he had thrown his pants
into the mail car instead OF the mail
pouch, which was still in the depot
The next morning an accommodating
small boy communicated his distress 70
one OF the few men in the town, who
loaned him pair OF overalls until his
own pair OF trousers were sent back to
him the next night

GEN. ALFRED PLEAsANroN.

his services In the Mexican and Indian
wars; of his rapid promoti on from one
rank to another until he wore the
epaulets of major general of volun-
teers, of his brilliant services at Chan
cellorsviIle, Boonesborough, South
Mountain, Antietam, Gettysburg, at
which last mighty battle he was chief
in command of the cavalry division Of
the army, and in many other battles;
OF his resignation subsequent to the
close of the war, his presidency of a
western railroad and other civil pur-
suits, only a mere reference need be
made in this connection.
Nearly a score of years ago Gen.
Pleasanton adopted the life of an abso-
lutte idler, save that he devoted much
time tt books. He was an omnivorous
reader of critical descriptions of bat
ties and a devoted student of the career
OF the great Napoleon. l: is proba BILE
that no man of his time had so readily
at his tongues end every detail Of the
battle of Waterloo, drawn from every
available source of map and volume.
He never tired Of discussing this one of
the most important battles of history,
and from impromptu diagrams, exactly
correct, as to the positions Of the va
rious armies at various moments of
the battle, and with perfectly familiar
description of the topography of the
field, he would entertain his friends
and point out the mistakes of Napoleon,
and how by change of plans he might
have won the fateful battle.
Gen. Pleasanton's criticisms of most
of the commanding officers of the war
of the rebellion were unsparing. and
more than once cropped out IN maya
zine articles, one of the most nota bic
of which appeared few years ago
among the remarkable war articles of
the Century magazine, and which chas-
tised Gen. Hooker severely for his con.
duct Of the battle of Charlottesville.
Such criticisms arrayed the regular
army influence against him, and played
q conspicuous part in the opposition to
his retirement by act of congress,
which, after long years Of delay, was
only accomplished in 1sSS, when he was
retired with the rank of colonel OF
the regular army.
Previous to that time the general
lived the life Of bohemian upon ex-
'ceedingly limited rations, his only in
come being a meager remittance at
regular intervals representing his
share of the proceeds from the small
family estate at Philadelphia
With plenty of money, his ample pay
as a retired colonel in his pocket, and
In the midst of his bohemian enjoy-
ment, when pecunious friends forsook
him not. and when inpecunious friends
were greatly multiplied. Gen. Alfred
Pleasanton suddenly disappeared from
public view. Inquiry soon developed
that he was not physically III, but i:
failed 70 discover the cause Of his self
immurement.

WOMAN DEPUTY SHERIFF.
She Is Said to Have Remarkable Influence
Over IpSane Woman.


Over Insane Women.
Mrs Aram. of Oakland, Cal, Is an ex-
ample of the advanced woman in the
| west, and she is now unfolding the
dignity of the Office of deputy sheriff.
She obtained this Office as other deputy
sheriffs do, as a reward for political
services. She stumped her county in
the interest of the populists, and in
Oakland she enjoys the honor of having
electioneered the present sheriff into
Office. Deputy Sheriff Aram's duties at
present are to convey insane women Of
Alameda county to the asylums.
Mrs Aram is interested In her work
because she has made study OF insane
-'onen and she has shown remarkable
ability in controlling them without re-
sorting to force. She can't explain her
| influence over violently insane women,
but she has given many illustrations of
it Speaking to a reporter Of her work,
she said:
Il don't know what to attribute nv
success to. unless it is that insist on
treating all the insane women as if they
about my work. had my own ideas
about it, and anyone bothering me with
, theories would have only made me
nervous. You never can have theory
with an insane person and be sure it is
the right one. They are always doing
the unexpected"
Her voice is low, and about the size
~ act -
eleven and a-half. The only sign of
her force lies in the snap Of a pair of
black eyes in her little round face. for
She is as plump as a partridge.
at Is the intervals that are not lucid
that watch Tor. am like a cat. but
they Go not suspect il. They return
the compliment by watching me for a
chance TO escape or give way to vio-
lence. They might have been as sane
as college professors for all the at
tempts they have ever made with me-"
do they respond 10 your ATTEMPTS
to turn their attention away from those
ideas?"
"1es, and they soon forget even muir
derous ones in contemplating some
trivial matter. They are fond of a
change and are rs easily amused as
children. And their manias? Some
times they think they are two people in
one. and they insist that they have two
hats aud two gowns on ar one time.
