In fact they did more harm than good
all the way through. They secured
confession after confession of the crime,

they could never get into court with

CASH ON THE wARPATH

The following communication was re-

derson Of the New York dry goods store:
I'm relation to the statements of NJ.
Mountain, made in last evenings Bea-
con, concerning the electric light used
by myself for the month of April, where
in he states that I permitted all the
lights to run full blast from the first OF
April TO the 18th, for which my bill was
S4S, 1 desire to state that Mr.. Noun
tain's statements in every respect in
relation thereto are untrue, and he GER
tainly shows that he is very reckless in
stating that of which he has no kRowl-
edge. During the time mentioned there
were five lights in the carpet room and
only one was permitted TO burn, and
that only for the Saturday nights until
about $50, and no later. That in the
main room the lights were only used on
the four Saturday nights in the month
Of April and during that time only until
10 o'clock with the exception Of one
night that 1 was using the room prev
ious TO the Easter opening. That also
during the said time there were six
lights in the main room that were not
burned at all, occasi0ned by the fact
that the globes thereon were broken,
and I would not pay forty cents for
globes furnished by other agents for
fifteen cents. That during all that time
there was one light that burned all the
night, but no others.

He KNEW HIS CRowD.-As soon as
they got on the train the conductor
recognized the kind of crowd he had
to deal with, says Judge. They were
young commercial travellers, consider
ably exhilarated by their mutual hos
pitalities at the town hotel. The
conductor allowed them to call him
captain and make various remarks,
and then, after the rounds of collect
ing the tickets, he stood before them,
and said:
0'Gentlemen, I want to inform you
that this is the slowest train in the
country E; that it never runs smooth
unless it is off the track that it once
had race with an ox-cart, and failed
to arrive in time to attend the barbe-
cue at which the oxen were served !;
that it stops everywhere, and waits
for anything from a laying of eggs to
lynching party; that it makes more
noise and less progress than a free
silver politician that it never goes
straight unless it is running around a
curve; that the only occasion when il
was on time was when it ran over a
clock, and that if you are in very
much of hurry you better get out
and walk"
Then he went to the other end of
the car and slept as quietly as babe,
for not a single question disturbed his
slumbers.
