A Disadvantage of Honesty.

A gentleman who came back from
Europe in September has been sururis-
ed to find that he paid 1-15O of all the
duties collected in New York on the
personal baggage of travellers coming
home from Europe in that month. How
many trunks do you suppose he
brought? Forty? Thirty? Twenty,
anyhow! No, just six, and three of
them were steamer trunks. They con-
tanned the personal effects of four per-
sons who had been abroad about six
months, and it cost this conscientious
traveller just about 500 apiece to brin 2
them in. If a man with six trunks
found that under the law he owed the
government $500, what do you suppose
was due from two men with fourteen
trunks, who came home on the same
steamer? A thousand dollars at least!
No! The men with fourteen trunks paid
nothing. They were merely bringing
back the clothings and effects which
they had taken over-or so, at leas.
they said in their declaration. The
gentleman who paid 5000 is afraid that
the new tariff on personal baggage
makes up in the encouragement of ly.
ing for what it lacks in the production

SLEEPY HOLLOW CHURCH.

Tho bulldlne That Marks tho Resting
Place OF Warrington Irving.
The little old stone church In the
lower end of the cemetery of Sleepy
Hollow has been thoroughly overhaul
ed during the past few weeks, and the
bicentennial of it's erection celebrated.
Some ten years before Washington r.
wing died and was buried within the
evergreen enclosure little way up the
hill, the chapel became too small for
its congregation. So the present First
Protestant Dutch Reformed church on
the main street of Tarrytown was built.
The congregation still owns the Sleepy
Hollow chapel, and during the early
autumn months generally holds SER
vice in it on Sunday afternoon. 1t has
now borne the cost of putting on new
roof, repointing the old stone and yell
low brick, repainting the quaint and
diminutive interior, and restoring the
pulpit. 1t has also removed the small
tablet above the front door, which
states that Frederick Phillips and
Cathar!na Van Cortlant erected Sleepy
Hollow church IN 1893. From the rec
ords the statement is Known to be
wrong and the date to lie 1897 OF
earlier. The builder of old Sleepy Ioi-
low church, who had first given his
name to a large part of Yonkers, was
man of many business interests in
the Hollow. Among those interests
was the construction of big mill DAM
According to tradition he stopped work
on the church 10 build the dam. The
dam was washed away. He recon-
structed it. Again it washed away. A
colored man in his employ, of the
Uncle Tom" sort, for three nights in
succession dreamed that the reason the
dam would not stand was because God's
work-the building of Sleepy Hollow
church-had been stopped. Uncle
Tom" told his master of his dream.
The dam was then allowed to remain
as the last freshet left, and the church
was completed and dedicated. Then
the dam was lebuilt-and it held, so

LUCK OF AN AMERICAN GIRL.
Makes Big Winning ut Monte Carlo
by Betting on No. IS.


by Betting on No. IS.
A private letter from Monte Carlo
recounts an extraordinary run of luck
made by one of the players, an Amer
lean girl, at roulette table, says an
exchange. She went there merely to
see the gambling, of which she had
heard so much and, becoming excited,
obtained permission from her escort to
venture one gold piece, and one only.
II she lost it she would play no more.
If she won she would play with her
winnings until they were gone. She
placed the coin on No. Is and the turn
OF the wheel was in her favor. Her
escort entered into an animated argu-
ment with her to take what she had
gained and be content with her expe-
rience. She reminded him of the terms
of the agreement, and while the con-
troversy was going on the croupier
gave another turn to the wheel, which
when it stopped, showed the same
number as winner. AS her money had
remained on the table it was increased
.thirty-fold. Again urged to remove
her gains and to cease playing, she
became angry and left the money on
the same number with the intention
of losing it. Once more the ball stop
ped in No. 10, and her single gold
piece had increased to handsome lit
tie fortune. which she was at length
prevailed upon to pocket. Oddly
enough, the next turn of the wheel
stopped at the same number, but as
it had already come up three times no.
body played it.
