MRS. DAVIS WAS BRAVE.
How She Beat OF WOuId-Be Rob-
Der at Detroit, Mimi.


Der at Detroit, Mimi.
Miss Marie L. Nesseth, of Washing
ton, D. c., is a guest Of Mrs. William
Wallace, of 249 West Third street. Miss
Nesseth was Mrs. G. K. Davis travel
ing companion during her trip to Alas
ka, and While in Detroit Mimi, there
was an attempted burglary of the two
ladies' state room. .-
Mrs. Davis and Miss Nesseth were in
the twelfth coach, which brought them
some distance from the depot. Mrs.
Davis did not wish the state room
lighted, as the night was very warm.
They noticed a young looking man
walking up and down outside, glanc-
ing into the coach windows After a
little he placed a board against the car,
and, stepping upon it, put his left hand
iEtO their dressing room window. The
train just then started, but Mrs. Da-
Wis was not frightened, only saying:
Marie, that tramp is going to steal
ride"
The man put his right hand into his
pocket, while he chung to the now rap
idly-moving train with his left, and
said: "If you squeak, I'll pop you to
a finish"
Mrs Davis had a small hand-satchel
beside her, and in it was a little re-
L
was not loaded, but Mrs. Davis aimed
it at the mans head and said: You
will, will your"
Al this the man dropped, and that
was the last seen OF him. The train
was going very fast, but nothing was
heard of him being injured. In some
way he smashed the window just be-
fore he dropped.
Miss Nesseth tried to ring the bell,
but it was out of order, and they found
that the state room had been locked
on the outside. 1t was some time be-
fore a porter could be brought, and
he could not understand how the door
came to be locked It was supposed
however, that the burglar locked 1t, as
il was found a satchel had been stolen
il the same car and the plan to rob
Mrs. Davis was probably prearranged.
After they left Detroit, Mrs. Davis
and Miss Nesseth Travelled through the
Yellowstone. AfterWaTd they went to
Seattle, and to Skaguay on the To-
peka. AT Skaguay they visited Mr..
entertained at Sitka by Judge and Mrs.
Johnson, who gave a tea in Mrs Da-
Wis honor. DR.. and Mrs. Duncan were
their hosts at Victoria. and at juneau
they visited a prominent Scotch fam
lily. Mrs. Davis received her first in
telligence of Senator Davis intention
of sailing on the nth upon her return
to Seattle. Senator Davis did not think
Mrs. Davis could reach New York in
time to sail Saturday. 1t was quick
trip across the continent, but it was
successfully made, Mrs. Davis reach
ing st. Paul last Wednesday, and had
but one hour to go home and pack up.
She reached New York, however, in
time to sail with her husband.

LOOKS BAD FOR JACKSON.

Police Think He Tas Been RObbing
st. Anthony Hill Homes.
The police think that they have in custody
the thief who has been burglarizing so many
st. Anthony hill homes during the last two
months. The suspects name is William
Jackson. He is a negro, and he was in
the municipal court yesterday charged with
vagrancy. He will be he'd on this charge
until the police can collect sufficient evidence
to substantiate graver charge.
Jackson is supposed to be the man who
robbed the residence of c. H. Slocum, 514
Selby avenue, Sunday, of a lot of siNerware,
and to have stolen 5000 worth of rings from
a family residing in the Lowering fats Selby
and Western.
A colored man was caught sneaking
through the rooms of George Adler, living
above Conger's drug store, Selby and ST. AL
bans, recently. 1t was early in the morning
and Adler was partially undressed and could
not chase the negro, who ran down stairs
and escaped. Adler got a good look at the
fellow and is sure he can identify him.
The police have notified Adler of Jackson's
capture, and he will take a look at the
prisoner this morning.

cocoanut is thus accounted for by a
DEBORAH correspondent of the Tele-
graph:
The great William Hamilton Dent
whom some of the republican papers
are rejoicing so loudly over, holds a
nice fat job as receiver of the First
National bank of DEBORAH at $40 a
day. He may be seen on the streets
of the city almost any time Of day
from to 9 and is very busy having a
good time and helping the poor de-
positors get rid of the little remaining
assets of the above named defunct
institution. One month more and he
will have received about $1,000 for
work any $40 a month school teacher
could perform. He would be very
ungenerous indeed if he did not say
something in favor of the monetary
system that creates such jobs for such
dear people.

Free to Teachers and Scholar,

In 1897 we had thousands of re
quests from teachers and scholars for
Wonderland '97. The edition-a large
one-was exhausted long before the
end of the year. Wonderland '9s can
now not only be supplied to those
unable to secure the former but also
to others. 1t is entirely different
however, from the first named book.
1t has chapter on The Agricultural
Northwest, crammed full of valuable
information; one on Yellowstone
Park, written especially for teachers;
another on Alaska and KIondike,
and one A Canoe Lake Trip, that
will be of interest to schools. The
book has a high art cover designed
by Leyendecker, and it is profusely
illustrated from new photographs.
The Northern Pacific Railway will
send the book and revised folder
map of Yellowstone Park, upon
receipt of six cents in stamps or
postal order. Send to Chas. s. Fee,
Gen. Pass. Agent, st. Paul, Mimi.

so needed depends upon two things:
The number of exchanges and the
prices at which they are effected. If
the price of wheat be 81 bushel then
81 WILL as between the owner OF the
wheat and the owner of the dollar, eff
feet the exchange of just one bushel.
If the price of wheat be cent per
bushel, then the dollar will buy 100
bushels of wheat, and, of course, effect
the exchange" of that quantity.
A half bushel will always hold the
same quantity. A yardstick will
always measure the same length. But
dollar is sometimes equal in ex-
change to one bushel of grain, some-
times to more and sometimes to less.
This simple and patent fact ought to
make it clear to all that there Is no
parallel or even similarity between
the case of the half bushel, as given
by Governor Shaw, and the question
of proper supply of money.
We will now glance at his closing
statement:
"This currency must be elastic
There will be more half bushels
needed on threshing day than will be
needed on seeding day."
Here, again, we have complete
surrender OF Governor Shew's case.
He comedies that there must be more
money at some times than at others.
Why? Simply because sometimes
there are more exchanges to be made
than at others. But If the volume of
money has nothing to do with prices
why do we heed more to do a big
business than a small one? Simply
because every time goods are e1-
changed for money there must be
money exchanged for the goods. II
the goods increase in quantity while
the money does not, then Of necessi-
ty given quantity of goods must be
exchanged for a smaller amount of
money, or else some OF the goods
must remain unsold.

A Noble Nurse.

When a soldier enters the detention
hospital ali of his clothes are burned.
One man who had been furloughed at
Camp Wikoff asked for his clothing
and $1e that he had left in his shirt
pocket. It was all OF his funds, and he
relied on 1t to pay his fare home. He
was informed that his clothing had
been burned and the SIP also, as no
one had thought to look in the little
pocket, relates the New York World.
AT this news the weak and miserable
fellow collapsed, and 1t was necessary
to again put him on his cot. he was
lying semi-conscious, overcome with
disappointment and the hopelessness
of his position, when a nurse went to
the bedside. "It was all mistake
about your money being burned she
said, "and here 1t is" With that she
handed him $12. The poor fellow could
not at first realize his good fortune,
but finally he smiled and then fell
asleep. The nurse was Miss Harriet 2.
Hawley, daughter of Gen. Hawley, of
Washington, who cast her lot in the de-
tention hospital when help was great
ly needed there. The $12 was really
burned and Miss Hawley told a ib,
for which she will no doubt be forgiven.
She collected the money from doctors
and nurses, subscribing the most her
self.

Expenses of the War.

One Of the largest telegraph bills
ever rendered will soon be presented
to the war department as result of
the war with Spain. Nearly all Of the
correspondence Of the department
has been carried on by telegraph, tho
mail correspondence having been
practically abandoned. Orders for
supplies, equipments, enlistments,
movements Of troops, mastering out,
assignments Of officers transfers of
men, and orders of every description
were sent by wire. Since the begin
ming of the war the small telegraph
Office at the war department has sent
and received $4,000 kilograms, some
OF which had nearly 1000 words in
them. Besides these messages, thou
sands were delivered by the telegraph
companies by messenger, and 1t is i'm
possible to tell at this time the exact
number handled. It cost the govern
ment $4,000 to notify Gems. Miles, Shat
ter and Merritt Of the signing of the
protocol, which provided for the sus-
pension of the hostiHties. The toll to
Manila is $2.25 per word, to Puerto
Rico $1.s4, and to Santiago rs cents.
The cablegrams to the generals of the
army contained over 1,1oo words.
Aside from this, Admirals Dewey and
Sampson and other naval command
ers had to be notified, and altogether
1t was rather an expensive, though
welcome, act on the part of the gov.
eminent.
