Saturday night he wandered into the home of one of the block fl damsels and, being somewhat under the in- f1uence of the brimming bowl, was robbed of the sum of s4S. Not content to stand his loss, as weaker man might have done, Frayne made com plaint before a justice and Ethel, the woman in the case, was arrested and placed in jail. She was released on providing a $500 bond, in the shape of certified check, and was temporarily released, to have her examination for robbery today.

We have not yet heard how the real ride
went off, the mail not having brought the

the reaches Is effected either by the liquid
into which they fail or by dousing them
with hot water. A few OF the common
forms OF traps and the methods OF using
them are here described.
A French trap consists Of box contain.
ing an attractive bait, the cover Of which
is replaced by tour glass plates inclined
toward the center. The reaches fall from
the covering glasses into the box and are
unable to escape A similar trap used in
sists Of small wooden box in which q
circular hole Is cut In the top and fitted
with glass ring, SO that it Is impossible
for the reaches to escape. This trap is
baited nightly, and the catch thrown each
morning into boiling water.
simpler form of trap, which I am In
formed by Mr.. F. c. Pratt is very sue
cessfulfy used in London, Eng, consists Of
any deep vessel or jar, against which q
number Of sticks are placed, and bent over
the vessel for a few inches. The vessel Is
partially filled with stale beer or ale, a
liquid for which reaches seem to have q
special fondness. In the morning these ves-
sells are found charged with great quanti-
ties of dead and dying reaches, which have
climbed up the inclined sticks and slipped
off into the vessel We have had fair sue
cess with this last method against the orr
entail roach in Washington, but against
the more wary and active Croton bug 1t
seems less effective.

keep them, perhaps, more effectively in

A Romance About the Cxar.


Whenever a royal or specially distn-
guished parsonage visits these shores some
ingenious soul invariably ferrets out
quaint or remarkable story concerning his
or her past. This being the custom, 1t was
too much to suppose that the car should
escape. l am. therefore. not in the least
surprised to read that the imperial coming
should bring to mind strange story which
found its way into the press forty-two
years ago. 1t was then alleged that the
Emperor Nicholas. on his mothers side,
was a Macgregor A gentleman Of the
name, residing at Brig o Turk, publicly an
nounced that the Emperor of Russia was
a member of that clan.
He averred that when the Gear Nicholas
father (PauD was in London he fell TN love
with his (Macgregors) aunt, whom he
happened to see riding her Shetland pony
in Hyde Park. The monarch got introduced
to her parents and herself, privately mar
ried her and took her to Russia, where she
became the mother of Nicholas. The young
lady in question, who was noted for her
beauty, certainly did go to Russia
A curious point about this story is that
when the Grand Duke Constantine (brother
of Nicholas) was on his way from Callan-
der to the Menteith country he passed the
Brig O Turk and was very anxious to
know as much as possible about the place.
All of which, l would add, Is very mys-
FERROUS, and makes one, Oliver Twist-like
hunger for more Information.

PET SQUIRRELS.
How They Can BE Tanned and Mad,
Into Playful Little Pets.
From TIarner's Round Tail,

How They Can BE Tanned and Made
Into Playful Little Pets.
From IIarper's Round Table ..
To teach a squirrel to become accus-
toned to handling. however requires some
patience. Every time he is fed it is we'll to
make a little clucking sound, or some
thing he will recognize a friendly call
meaning feeding time. After having tanned
him SO he will eat while you are Watchl
ing him, which he will do sometimes in one
or two days, get him accustomed to having
your hand around the cage. Then lasso or
moose him around the body with small
cord, ard take him out of the cage without
lifting him by the cord. Take care, for he
will bite and sink his little teeth almost
through the bone of your finger if he has
chance.
Now take a glove that has been stuffed
full Of cotton, and stroke him gently with
it, If he attempts to bite, which he Is al
most certain TO do. give him a little tweak.
Repeat this as often as he tries to bite, and
he will soon learn that if he sits still he is
all right. Now feed him from the thick
glove. In a surprisingly short time he will
give up all idea of biting and you can
stroke him or pick him up with your hand
and carry him about in your pocket. He
will grow wonderfully attached to you, and
when once tanned thoroughly he will never
run away; although he may pay snort
visits to his mates, he will return to You.
But pray remember this, that his deadly
enemy is the cat.
