From the Kansas CITY Times.

COLUMBIA, NO., Dec. 10.-John Hunt, 10
years of age, will be hanged In Columbia Jan.
10, barring interference by the Governor. His
case has been appealed several times, to no
avail. Peculiar circumstance surround his
case, among which Is the devotion OF Sheriff
James Stockton to the man he must hang.
Hunt Is utterly destitute. and tho Sheriff
has drawn heavily from his own pocket in his
cndeayors to have his sentence committed. He
has engaged attorneys for the prisoner, and
bore ali the expenses of the Inst appeal. Hunt
returns the affection of tho Sheriff, and is al
ways cheerful when in his company. The
doomed man has been in u strange lethargy
for several months and never speaks except to
Stockton. Every day when tho Sheriff enters
his cell he says;
Jim, when are you going to hang'mel'
The Sheriff makes the same reply each day:
ION Jan. 10, John. unless God OF the Governor
intcrccdes."
Hunt has "A bad as well rs an interesting rec.

could not be secured TO convict Hunt, but short
ly afterwRrd he was sent TO the penitent!ary for
two years for grand larceny. When his term
expired he returned to his home near Columbia
and immediately made love to his cousin, Bet.

ONE GRATEFUL PESSIONER.
The Exception That Turned Up In tho Mail or
n senator IN Washington.

WASHINGTON. Dec. ls.-"Tho writer OF this
letter is one man out OF n thousand" said q
Senator. as he held up n letter no Ind just re-
coived In his usual extensive morning mail.
MY State furnished a great many soldiers
during tho war. and. as / was one OF them, tho
old veteran naturally thinks ! am the proper
person TO apply TO when he wants q pension or
an increase. Consequently. my pension corre-
spondence is quito extensive. This man applied
for a pension some months ago on tho ground
of II specific disability. The case was pushed
along rs rapidly as possible. and last week the
pension was allowed, though at the rate of only
"a n month under the General Disability act,
instead OF $l2 IN he expected. But he writes
tn ,L he is SO thankful, both he and his wife (and
they are quite advanced in years.. just Hs thank
full ns though IT were $l2 instead OF So. and no
invokes all sorts OF blessings on my head.
A | said before. This nun is one in n thousand,
for II il very seldom that j hear from a PEN
siOnur after mott. wing him that his lain has
been allowed and his name has been placed on
the pension roll. OF course. u Senator 10 sup
posed To look after the interests OF his constitu-
ants; that is what he is here Tor. and then. too.
his constituents know that his clerk attends to
tho, pension correspondencs largely-a Senator
could not do II himself and nave. any time for
other duties-but It Is very refreshing, just tho
same. to receive O genuine. AppreciatIye letter
like this once in y while"

An Improvident Young MAJ who Will Always
Have n Dollar in His Pocket.

From the Chicago Tines-Herald.
Queer things happen at funerals" said n
Clergyman recently who has ofhciated at many,
me greatly. on account of tho standing OF the
family in which it happened. as well as from
the peculiar circumstances surrounding the in
cident-the bestowal of money on a dead man,"
The narrator was urged to relate the story,
and on the promise that no names would be
mentioned he continued:
ut was a funeral at tho house of one of my
parishioncrs, and 1 was greatly surprised when
vices. I had not heard OF any member of the
family being i'll, n9r had / been summoned to
tho deathbed, but / jumped TO the conclusion
that IL was an old servant who had died.
ut proved TO be II bad SON tho black sheep
of the family-whose shadow had not darkened
their doors for years, but who, 1t was a. ways be-
lieved, had been supported at q distance far
enough to prevent him from disgracing the
family by HIS misdccds.
Now he was brought homo dead. and I was
expected TO give him as little blame and as
much praise rs was consistent with the dignity
of my office and his relation to the family.
II need not go into that part OF the ceremonies
of feeling which cnnsccrated the memory OF the
man rs nothing that l said could nave done.
Just before the casket was closed his old
mother arose from her seat with the nlourncrs,
and, approaching tho dead, clipped n silver dol
lar into his vest pocket.
Jim never liked to be without money In his
pocket she said with a low, tremulous voice.
'Many's the dollar I've slipped into his pocket

a water-tight casing about nine feet deep and
ak feet square. having bevelled stills around tho
top and a post standing in the centre, the casing
being into The ground, so that the bevelled stills
come even with the surface. A cage. or .eleya-
tor car, Is made 10 move up and down In this
to allow the centre post to pass through. Tho
roof projects over The sides OF the cage about
FIVE inchcs. which, when sunk into the ground,
fits snugly over the beyelled stills OF the casing,
thus making 1t impossible for water or wind to
enter.
The cage whom not In use stands constantly
above ground. and Is held in position by focr
bolts, which are located under the cage floor
and controlled by n lover, one movement OF
which owes all four OF the bolts. When the
