SLOWING AWAY.
A FoosHardy and Dangerous Method OF

A Fooseardy and Dangerous Method OF
Getting an Ocean Voyage.
In spite Of the fact that the punish
ment usually melted out to those who
try to steal free passage on ship is
several weeks hard labor, with the OPP
ton of fine, stowaways are even more
common today than they were SO or 90
years ago.
Big passenger steamers, with their
hundreds of passengers and their scores
of stewards, sailors and stokers, afford
innumerable opportunities for slowing
away.
Three years ago stowaway was dis
covered aboard one of the Allan liners
running between Liverpool and Mont
real. He was shabbily dressed, but be-
ing a big, sturdy looking fellow he was
pat to work about the ship. When the
ship anchored below Montreal, waiting
for daylight before entering the harbor,
he, it is presumed, slipped quietly over
board and swan ashoare. In any case,
when the boat touched at Montreal and
was overrun by detectives looking for a
notorious jewel robber, it was i'm
mediateIy suspected that the stowaway
was the robber and that he had escaped,
taking the fwels with him. He was
captured some months afterward and
confessed that when he swan ashore he
had more than 81 900 worth of jewels
Oh his person.
The favorite hiding places of stow
Always are the coal bunkers and the mar
row passages left when the vessels are
loaded with bricks, tiles, iron pipes or
other similar cargo These places are
extremely dangerous, and many cases
are recorded where the shifting Of the
cargo has resulted in the death of some
unfortunate wretch in hiding.
During the passage of a cargo boat to
this country from England the sailors
were startled the third day out by a
curious scratching, which was imme-
diately attributed to supernatural causes.
The scratching continued for three
days and then grew quiet and ceased.
When the matches were lifted at the end
of the voyage, the emaciated body Of
man was found lying ON some bags of
cement. The poor starving fellow had
struggled frantically to get out of the
hold.
AS for our American liners, it is fol-
ly to try slowing away in any of them.
The United States will not receive pau

try under penalty of So, 500. A "free

That Sinking Feeling.

A good story is being told on one of
Louisville's most prominent homeo-
pathic physicians. Several days ago
young woman called at his Office, and
after discoursing on all the topics of in
tercst CT the day settled down to tell
him her ailments. Among other things
she said that she was greatly annoyed
with Il sinking feeling. The physician
prepared little bottle Of pills and gave
them to her, with minute directions as
to how they should be taken. The wom-
an again began to talk, and after many
vain efforts to get her cut she started
for the door. She had just opened it
when she turned and said, "Oh, doctor,
what shall do if these pills do not cure
me?" Take the cork he retorted.
''They tell me that's good for sinking
feeling" And he called the next patient
into his private Office. louisville Post.

One OF the most daring bank robberies
which ever occurred in Illinois was at
Buffalo, thirteen miles from Springfield,
on the 14th, the cashier being bound and
gagged and 81 900 carried of by the rob-
bers. Two masked men entered the bank
just AS Carl Kloppenburg, the cashier,
was locking up the safe preparatory 10
going to his dinner. kloppenburg was
the only person in the bank at the time.
The robbers seized him from behind,
bound and gagged hun and then took all
the money in the bank, amounting 10 SILL
600. William p. Dawson, who entered
the bank some time later, saw kloppen-
burg lying on the floor bound, and re-
leased him. kloppenburg could give but
a meager description of the robbers. 1t is
though they are experts at the business.
The country was secured by mounted men
without success.

Echo of Durham Divorce Case.

4 telegram has been received AT Canton
by a prominent lawyer, who was once
counsel in the Durham divorce case,
which created such a iurore in high HE
in Chicago, that the Illinois supreme
court Las decided in favor OF Mr.. Dunham
in ease against Maj. Allyn for alternating
his wiie's affections.
Mrs. Durham came to Canton about
three years ago aud secured a divorce
from eX-Congressman Durham, who was
in Chicago. A man by the name OF
Mai. Allyn came here with Mrs. Durham
and after she secured the divorce they
were married by Bishop Marty, In 1873
Mrs. Durham went back to Chicago, and
Mr.. Durham commenced an action for di-
vorce upon the grounds OF adultery with
Mai. Allyn. which was claimed 10 have
been committed in Canton and also in
Chicago. He also commenced suit against
Allyn for alternating his wlie's affections,
claiming $50, 600 damages. The evidence
of a great many Canton people was taken
in this case. 1t proved most racy evidence
regarding the intimate relations n con-
duct of Allyn and Mrs. Dunham in this
city, and greatly reused the ire of the
major. who threatened the Daily Advo-
cate with a large libel suit, and also
threatened vengeance upon the numerous
witnesses. The supreme court of Illinois,
TO which the Chicago case was appealed,
ignored the South Dakota divorce and de-
clded in favor of Mr.. Durham.
