rified the vault Kelly had locked the

had swept his hands through the till

broke out the big light Of glass, went

hands, walked down the stairs to the

along the side streets leading to the
thoroughfare on which Mr.. Hayes or
chard is located, and beneath q tree in
that orchard he threw his burden
down. Then with the calmness of q
man who had just done a worthy deed,
he went to his boarding house, and,
coolly and calmly looking at every in
dividual and gazing straight into his
eyes, ate his dinner in the dining room
used by every one who boarded at the
place. He was as cool as a cucumber
then, and gave not the slightest sign
OF nervousness, so that not one OF tbs
boarders thought that there was any
thing suspicious In his actions. After
dinner he went to his room and re-
NAMED there a few minutes, and later
he went around to Whiddens stable
and hired horse and buggy. He went
aronnd through the lane to Hayes or
chard, and on the way he saw Brake

man quite WELL but he did not want to
face him and speak with him just then,
SO he turned the horses head, return

piled his precious possessions into the
bag, which he threw into the carriage.
Then he started on the road to Mon

SNAKE SKINS AS. FANCY WORK

A Novel Use to Which the Discarded
Coverings of Reptiles Are Put,
The ingenuity of woman has COM
passed new use for snakes by the dis
cOvery that the decorative cast skins Of
the creeping tribe may be converted
into bazaar attractions, says the New
York Herald. A we'll known savant,
whose sanctum is lined from floor to
ceiling with glass cases whence venom
GUS eyes regard his visitors with futile
fury, is besieged by ladies covetous of
novelties for their stalls, who beg elo-
quently for the CASTOR clothing of his
reptilian pets. AT times he says, II
have on hand large wardrobe of cast
OF skins-a bankrupt stock, so to put
1t, OF returned empties'-some perfect,
many insists and a few damaged
goods A really fine specimen like
this''-he held up for admiration a taw-
ny golden sheeny length of scales
brings quite high price at a bazaar,
and many of my lady friends, weary of
working the everlasting 'creWel,' or
perpetrating the many useless inven-
lions of the feminine needle, 'bespeak'
skin some months before it is due,
and are often quite angry that can
not induce snake to shed his skin with
due regard to a specified bazaar date.
These ladies argue that it is a great
saving OF labor to substitute tbs ready
made clothing of the snake for a
worked tobacco pouch or blossoming
braces, while experience shows that the
average man readily invests in a good
snake skin. At present." he deplored,
my old clothes shop is nearly empty,
but Lent fortunately, brings an on
season in bazaars, during which have
an opportunity of saving serpentine
garments for a good Easter crop"
