African Tree Crabs.

In Africa there exists a tree-crah
which has trick of crawling up a
cocoanut tree, biting off half dozen
punches and then creeping down again
backwards. The theory is that the nuts
are shattered by the fall, and the crab
thus enjoys hearty meal. Now the
natives try to stop these depredations,
which often ruin the cocoanut crops,
and take advantage of the fact that
the lower portion Of the crab is soft
and sensitive. When they are heard IN
the tree the native climbs half way up
the tree and drives in circle of pixies
made out of thorns. The consequence
is when the crab comes down he en-
counters the thorns, and. supposine
that he has reached the ground, he let
go, and is so crippled by the fall that he
is easily dispatched and eaten in his
turn,

SAVED THE OWNER TROUBLE.
Burglar Opened q Safe when the Combi-

nation Was Lost.
The proprietor OF large store on
High street went to his place of busi-
ness at an unusually early hour one
morning; in fact, the sun had not yet
risen when he turned the key in the
door. On entering he was surprised to
find man trying to open the door of
his safe. He stood and watched him
for some time. apparently deeply in
terestcd in the proceedings, says the
West Bedford (Mass.) Windmill, when
finally the burglar swung open the
door of the safe with delighted
"huclle. but happening to turn he saw
that he was discovered. and became
very much alarmed. He jumped up and
was about to make his escape through
Il back window, whtn the merchant
called to him:
Don't be in hurry, my friend;
come back and sit down awhile and
smoke cigar. while straighten things
up bit, and then come to breakfast
with me. You have done me a great
favor"
"Why. how's that?" asked the bur-
glar, in great surprise.
"Well. you see, had the combina-
tion of the safe on bit of paper, and
last night | accidentally locked it in
the safe and forgot how to work it..
spent most Of the night trying to get
the thing open. and came in early this
morning to have another try at it,"

A DETECTIVE MYSTERY.
Was the Noted Sieuth Himself "a Success
full Bank Cracksman.

full Bank Cracksman.
THE most mysterious affair | ever
knew in detective circles" said we'll
known sleuth to a Washington Star
writer, twas a case in the west. A
detective had become famous by reason
of his success in ferreting out heavy
robberies. 1t seemed that none of the
professionals could escape when he
once started upon their trails. After
time all such cases were placed in
his hands. The first one that he could
not discover the thief was a big bank
robbery, then after year or two
another. then another: his reputation
was suffering. but it was still gooSl,
rs during the same period he was sue
cessful in other difficult cases. He was
taken sick with fever. and while de
lirious told how he himself had per-
pctrated the robberies. describing every
movement in detail. When he recov-
cred, il was claimed that his failure
to unravel the mysteries had caused
the raving confessions, but other me n
were put upon them, and they failed
to find any clew whatever. The detec-
tive retired and lives in elegant style,
but whether or not he was as success
full in eludng law as in enforcing it
will probably never really be known"

Who pays the bills? There seems
to be no worry about that. 1t is
taken for granted that the cash is
ready for another free silver cam
paign, to be run from now until
i9O0-wide open and for all it is
worth. There is only one source
from which the cash is likely to come,
and that is the source from which
most of it came to run the late cam
paign on the free silver side. The
silver syndicate is the free silver
party's banker, as well as father,
and it will foot the bills.
But the silver syndicate is not 60
ing to have the field all to itself hence
forth, as it did up to the opening Of
the late campaign. The sound money
people of the country will be in the
fight at the drop of the hat. In three
months they beat out the silver syn
dicate's game this year and they will
beat it every time it is put up Ii
the free silver organizations are go
ing to be kept at work, SO will the
sound money organizations. The
latter have no silver syndicate s
bank to draw on to pay the bills, but
they are not without resources when
the country is threatened with re-
pudiation and national dishonor.
So, let the fight be renewed just
as quickly as the free silverites may
be pleased to renew it, One more
campaign will finish it., whether it
be a four years or four months
campaign. Detroit Evening Journal.

workings of which the people in gem

come together as one body Of men any
where, but the electors of each stat"
assemble within that sta,e at such time

Each eleCtor is at liberty to vote for
whCmsoever he may deem best. out
this privilege has never been exercised.
against the judgment of the voters,

electors always being respected. The
electors vote for president and vice
president. one of whom al least shall

sons voted for as president and vice
president, and the number of votes for
each, are made, signed and certified.
Two copies Of this list are made, one of
which is filed with the secretary of
state, n is mailed and the original is
carried by special messenger, usually
one of the electors, to the president OF
the United States senate, not to be
opened till the day designated by law.
The law of Wyoming provides that
the electoral colleg5f for this state shall
meet at the capital at noon of the sec,
