Paul Leicester Ford, in December Atlantic.
Save in one or two of Cooper's novels, IL
would be well-nigh impossible to find a ro-
rance dealing with revolutionary history
which does not make the Wing of that war
the patriot and the Tory the disloyal and
usually extracting man. Yet the student
of history knows that the loyalists, If mi
nority were largely composed of the gentry
and educated classes of the country: were
in fact, the equivalent of what to-day are
termed the better element" and were SUI
perior in character to many of the men who
opposed them. No American novelist has
ventured to write of John Hancock and JON
athan Trumbull as men suspected of smug-
Cling, or OF Samuel Adams as public man
who sought, as other officials have done
more recently, to vindcate himself from the
charge Of defalcatiOn by an appeal to the
ballots of the masses. Would any American
author, striving to write popular fiction.
dare to picture one signer of the DecIara-
ton as selling the secrets of his country to
the French Ministry for a paltry pension.
or another taking advantage of information
of the need of the continental cause for
wheat to corner the supply at once so far
as he was able2 In one case alone have our
writer's dared to draw an approximately
faithful portrait of a man who came to the
front in early revolutionary days, to de-
scribe the bounty jumper, deserter smug-
gler and drunkafd, who, nevertheless, rose
to high honor in the American cause and
the reason for this exception is explained
when the name of the man is given as BEN

HEIRESSES ON A LOCOMOTIVE.
Mrs. OeIrichs and Miss Fair Ride
Miles in a Cab.
San Francisco Examiner.

San Francisco Examiner.
On the recent homeward journey from the
East Mrs. Herman OelrichS and her sister,
Miss Virginia Fair, two of California s
wealthiest heiresses, rode a part of the
way in the cab of a locomotive. This novel
experience was partly of their own seeking.
1t was suggested, however by Melvin Shell,
the engineer of the trains on which they
were travelling, who happened to have
known their father, the late Senator Fair,
in the pioneer days.
AT PromOtory, tifty-three miles west of
Ogden. the train on which the .heiresses
were had to wait over for some time. Mrs.
Oelrichs and Miss Fair awaited themselves
of the delay by taking a little walk on the
track From the window of his cab Engi-
neer Shell recognized them, and said to his
firemen, Jim Mcbride, Why there are Sen
ator Fairs daughters.
His remark was audible to the two ladies,
and going closer to the cab, Mrs. Oelrichs
said: You seem to have known my father"
Yes, madam, / knew your father when
he was running the ComstOck mine" He
of their childhood, which still remained
fondly treasured in their memories. Cues
ton and answer soon broadened to a reg
ulat conversation between the heiress and
the engineer. The time for the train to
start came around.
Then Melvin She'll in an intensity of
friendship, blurted out: Ladies, l beg your
pardon, but aren't you tired of riding in
that stuffy Pullman back there? Wouldn t
you like to ride awhile o in the cab, where
you ii get some fresh air?'
The sisters stared at the engineer for a
moment, too startled to speak. Then the
humor of the situation caught them, and.
exchanging chances. they burst into a
hearty laugh.
Shall we?" inquired Mrs. Oelrich of Miss
Fair. A nod from Miss Fair settled the
question, and in a second or two Engineer
Shell was assisting Mrs. Herman Oelrichs
and Miss Virginia Fair into his cramped
and grimy quarters. Directly afterWard
the conductors signal was given, and pull
ing his valves open Engineer Shell started
locomotive No. 1900 of the G. p. road with
it's increased crew, off for the next station.
At Wells, where the train stopped again,
the heiresses, flushed, sooty and with their
dainty finery in sad disarray, parted COM
pany with their fathers friend, the hospita-
BILE engineer.
In confidence to their acquaintances in
the parior car they afterwards said that
they would not have missed the ride in the
cab of the locomotive-"No, not for any
thing"

ONE MANS EXPERIENCE.
At an informal meeting of hotel men
which took place in the course of one of
the annual excursions a Western Boniface
told the following story about hotel detec-
tives: I'm prejudiced, and for good cause,
We had a Sunday school convention in our
city and few days before the people came
had an application from a nice-looking
girl for place as spotter. 1 had never
employed a woman in that capacity, but
between her good looks and her arguments
about what / owed my house and what l
owed my guests, and seeing her credentials
and hearing her bright, up-to-date ideas, l
was won over. / gave her a job during
the convention, and promised to take the
question of a permanent engagement under
consideration.
1.-The day before the convention she dis
covered a well-dressed man in one of the
rooms. 1t was the room of one of the regu-
lar guests, and was full of such plumber
as thief likes to get his hands on. He
got away from her, but the bundle of stuff
which he had collected was found on the
stairs. The clerk just got a glimpse of him
as he rushed through the door to the street.
I discharged the maid through whose care
lessneSS the man had entered the room,
and congratulated myself in having found
tective.
81 awoke from my dream the third day
of the convention. The girl was gone, and
so was something from nearly every room
on the main floor of the house. The last
