RGED WITH FORGERY.
John sabol Raised Montana Central
Check.

Chief of Police Guerin Saturday cap
tured an Austrian, named John Sabol,
just as he was getting ready to leave the
city, arresting him on charge of forg-
cry. He received check for Sl1 from
the Montana Central railway, for whom
he was working, and, having resigned
his job preparatory to going to Butte,
conceived very clumsy scheme to swim
die some one. He changed one of the
figures to a 4, making it read SAL, in
stead of Sll. The eleven in the body
of the check was left unchanged. He
offered the check in several saloons, but
in each case the discrepancy between
the figures and the writing was pointed
out to him and the check refused.
Finally, Ben Riley cashed it for S4l 3,
only glancing at the figures in the
corner. When he discovered the swindle
he notified John Guerin ard the chief
had tine thief in less than en- hour, and
got him just in time, as he was getting
ready to leave town. He had another
check for s23 coming to him and Mr.
Riley promptly attached it, to partially
make good his loss on the other ore.

The Old Lady Appeared In Vision -
she Time of He's Death.
A gentleman took house in Ireland
for six months, and was accompanied
thither by his wife and daughters, says
the Realm. The house was furnished,
and had plenty of bedrooms. There
fore, it was decided not to use certain
large, long room, with cupboards along
one side (Which had all been locked and
sealed up with tape), In which things
belonging to the owners of the house
had been put away. One evening one
of the daughters, going up to her room,
saw an old lady wrapped in shawl
walking along the passage in front of
her. The old lady appeared to know
her way and hurried on without hesi-
tation into the unused room. The girl
called her sister, and they followed
the dame into the room. But all was
silent; no one was there; the dust lying
about showed no signs of footprints.
Shortly after the same young lady
was reading on the hearthrug by fire
light. Looking up, she beheld the old
lady in the doorway watching her.
Greatly frightened, she sprung up and,
rushing downstairs, was found faint
ing at the drawing-room door. AT last
the family returned to Dublin. One
day, when friend was calling, the
curious incident which have narrated
was referred tn. The young lady very
unwillingly told her experience. The
visitor seemed very much struck and
asked for an accurate description of the
old lady. For" said she. that house
belonged to two old ladies, sisters, and
when they left their house they went
to reside at Geneva. One of them, an
swering exactly to the description you
have given, died at the time you saw
her appear"

Utilizing the Horse Car.

When the car horses throughout Con-
necticut cities were retired few years
ago with the coming of the trolley. people
wondered what would become of the 900
cars that they have dragged so long. No
one would have guessed then that a brisk
demand for these Old cars would spring UP
in one season, and would almost completely
exhaust the supply. Yet such has been the
case this summer. The cars have been
sold for summer shelter in rural districts
for hunters camps, for lodges by solitary
lakes. for cabins on house boats and,
most of all, for the homes of campers on
the coast OF Long Island Sound and its
islands. a Norwich party at Scotchcap,
on the Thames River, have arranged -four
horse cars in the form of a hollow square
