The Story Of a Stolen Watch and . Truly
Penitent Thief.

The Story of a Stolen Watch and q Truly
Penitent Thief.
Being rich and proud, the old railroad
magnate would give a reasonable for.
tune if this incident in his career had
never become public. He had left his
Office one afternoon, and in front Of the
building found a crowd, attracted by a
passing procession. He was pressing
his way through when stopped by a
brilliantly handsome young woman
whose face wore a troubled look. She
wanted to reach a street in the north
western part of the city and was at a
loss what route to take. He calamity
helped her out of the crush, put her on
the right car and told her where to get
off. Wanting to know the time a few
minutes later, he dove into his watch
pocket, only to find it unoccupied. A
little profanity was followed by a
chuckle, for the watch taken was a
cheap affair he was carrying while his
timepiece was being repaired.
He had never suspected the beautiful
young lady, but the next day she ap.
peared in tears and restored the stolen
watch. She was sorely pressed for
money, had no one to whom she could
60 for help and had yielded to a mo.
mentary impulse. But her conscience
gave her no rest until she repented and
made restitution. She had thrown her
self on his mercy, and the old gentle
man was deeply moved. He insisted on
her taking $50, to be returned if she
was ever in a position to repay. other
wise to be regarded as a gift. Over
come by a joyful reaction, she almost
tainted and would have fallen but for
the support of her benefactor. When
she was gone, he felt as a man who had
done a good deed and was on the best
of terms with himself. He even looked
in the glass to smile congratulations at
himself. There he discovered that his
big diamond pin was gone. The long
pocketbook was missing from the inside
pocket Of his coat. With a weak hand
he reached for his own $500 chronom-
eter, and that, too, had vanished. He
told no one but his wife, whom he
swore to secrecy. That is how the affair
got out. Detroit Free Press.

How He Made New Orleans Clean Tn
and Stay So.

About the first summer in the history
of New Orleans when the yellow fever did
not prevail was that of 1868. The city had
been captured from the confederates and
Gen. 3. f. Butler was in command After
careful research the general became con-
WINGED that all countries where frost was
Known woild be free from this pestilence
II 1t wef~ cot imported. He obliged the
reluctant city authorities to give the streets
a thorough cleaning-something they had
hot undergone in the memory Of the Oldest
lnnabitant-and then established an alb
solute quarantine. The latter measure en-
countered great opposition, as senseless
as IL was irritating. The State Depart
ment at Washington was appealed to with
misrepresentation ard protests but he
conquered in the end. He wrote. and no
one at the national capital painsaia hi,
words: ---S
My orders are imperative and distinct
10 my health officers to subject ali ves-
sells coming from infected ports TO such
quarantine as shall insure safety from

other, be it so' ~ "iA
Inc result OF this resolute course on the
commanding generals part was that The
summer meats came and went without the
appearance of yellow fever. Ships from
nassau and Havana. where the contagion
saseu uLehecked, brought their tropical
stores and delivered them, but left the
