Atlantic City May 25.-Louis Coup
lin, whose arrest was attended by such
dramatic circumstances at the Second
National bank, in this city, last Friday
for embezzlement committed in Rus
sia, came near giving the police the
slip yesterday afternoon. Couplin on
Saturday was released on $500 bail
pending instruction from the Russian
consul in New York city. Yesterday
he hired a cab ostensibly for a ride
about town. He, however. made his
destination Pleasantville, five miles
from this place. From there he took a
train for Philadelphia. Shortly after
his departure word was received from
the Russian consul at New York re-
questing that he be detained. The dis
patch stated that Couplin was wanted
for robbing the bank at Cachiff Po-
land, of 10000 roubles. Word was sent
to Camden to apprehend him upon his
arrival there which was done.

lheFeby at6iishiUg The ice systeii, all
are agreed upon. Reformers are in
need of great patience. Great re-
forms come about slowly, and to at
tempt to reform the whole system of
government at one fell stroke, can
not be accomplished except by revo-
luton. Hence it is necessary to take
but one, or at most, two OF the most
important questions at time, and
such questions as can readily be
agreed upon by all, The silver
question is undoubtedly the para
mount question and the one we can
all agree upon.
Then, why, disagree upon a propo-
sition that we ere already agreed
upon? the writer of this article SIN
cerely hopes to see the union of the
reform forces accomplished and cares
not under what name or what party
inscription is placed upon the banner,
so that we can unite and accomplish,
some good for our fellOwman, other
wise we might as well ratify the
nominations of the Mckinley, Cleve-
land gold bug combination and get
into the band wagon and bow down
to the gold bug Lords OF Wall and

a bright and happy one.
The truest thing about disease is that
most of it is needless. Nine-tenths of it
can be subdued by very simple remedies.
Even that most dreadful malady, con-
sumption, can be cured in 98 cases out
of a hundred, if it be treated in its early
stages with DIR. Pierce's Golden Medical
Discovery.
Consumption is a disease caused by
impurity of the blood, and the first thing
to be done in its treatment is to make
the blood pure, r; ;ch and wholesome.
That is half the battle. The other half
is the impregnation of the blood with
cleansing, healing, invigorating medi-
cines. The "Golden Medical Discov-
cry" does both. 1t first puts the whole
digestive system into perfect order, r1ds
it of all impurities and from the vantage
ground so gained, reaches out to every
fiber of the body and restores all to
perfect vigor. II cures many diseases,
sim because many diseases spring
fro.l . set of common causes. The same
disorder may lead to different symptoms
in different people. What might be only
a little Indigestion in one person, may
combine with a slight cold in another
and result in consumption. treatment
that tones up the whole system is always
the safest. A medicine that is good for
the general health is pretty sure to cure
ordinary diseases. Twenty-one cents IN

Keep Snakes as Pets.

There is a pet snake in nearly every
house in Brazil" said Chicagoan who
has returned from n journey through
that country. They keep them just as
we do the cats or dogs, and, indeed, for
much the same purpose, using them to
kill the rats at night. The snakes are a
species of boa from ten to fifteen feet
long. and are perfectly harmless to
mankind, while they are quite affec-
tionate and, like cats, become attached
to the house where they are kept.
These snakes are sold in the markets,
where / bought one that died on the
voyage from Rio Janeiro to New York.
"a scientist, to whom ! spoke of these
snakes, told me that no snakes are real
ly dangerous to man. He said that
never had snake attacked a man un-
less the man had first attacked it. The
reptile is defensive, but not offensive,
and has no desire to pick quarrel. But
IL you tread on n snake the thing cannot
know that your intentions are not in
imical to its welfare. So l always
avoid snakes Times-Herald.

TENeMENT-HOUSE FIRES.
Insurance Patrol Works for the Poor
We'll Hs the insured.

At fires in the homes of the poor these
detachments of the patrol work just
as earnestly and conscientiously to save
property as they would in the expen-
siyely furnished mansions of the rich.
At tenement house fires they are Of
great service. FRS, they aid in getting
the people out: then, gathering the
goods together, the patrulmen protect
them from water with tarpaulin covers.
The majority of these fires break out in
the easements or cellars; then. follow
ing the air and light shafts to the top
floor, they spread, and do the greatest
damage in the upper stories. To ex-
tiugUish these fires. the other floors be-
low have TO be flooded, and were it not
for the fire patrol in many cases the
poor families would lose everything
they owned.
One Of the captains OF the patrol re-
marked: why, it would do your heart
good if you could hear how profuse
these poor people are in their thanks.
and the Blessings they shower on US
when they find we've saved their things.
They 20 running around, wringing
their hands and crying: 'Everything's

there isn't anything they wouldn't do
for us! Half the time they're not in
sured. and it isn't our business 10 pro-
toct people who are not; but we're not
supposed to know everything and our
orders are TO protect property first and
find out whether ii is insured after
wards; and it is not our fault If we save
the little all of a lot Of poor creatures
who half the time haven't change Of
clothes to their back You bet, we get
to work just as quick in a tenement

Colossal Tree in Maine.

Jay, Me, claims one of the biggest
trees in Maine. II stands on the bank
Of the Androscoggin, on the lawn Of the
late Dudley Bean. The circumference
four feet from the ground is 23 feet. di-
ameter seven feet. About six feet from
the ground there are seven branches
radiating from its trunk which are from
1s inches to "a inches in diameter. The
branches spread over a space of ground
20 feet in circumference. or 90 feet in
diameter. Where the branches leave the
trunk of the tree about seven feet from
the ground there has been erected a
band stand which seats 25 persons. A
cooler place on hot days cannot be
found. y Boston gentleman was riding
by recently. and the tree attracted his
attention. He examined and measured
it, and was astonished at its dimensions
He went away with the remark that if
