A messenger was sent to the king tn
inform him of what was going on.and
the king sent a regiment of grenadiers
to seize Uncle Curro and his cudgei.
No sooner did Uncle Curro see them
approach than, throwing the cudgel
among their ranks, he cried, "Cudgel

straightway began to dance upon the
ribs of the grenadiers, making noise
like the clapper of a mill. One is left

and the captain is left blind of an eye.
To make an end of the business the
grenadiers all threw their guns and
knapsacks on the ground and ran of,

devil had broken loose and was run

With his mind at rest, Uncle Curro
lay down to take a nap, hiding his
cudgel in his breast lest it should be
stolen from him during his sleep.
When he awoke, he found himself
bound hand and foot and on his way
to prison, where, on his arrival. he
was sentenced to the ignominious
death oil the garrote.
TN the following morning he was
taken from his cell and led out to exc
cution. Ga the scaffold his hands
were unbound, whereupon he took
out his cudgel, and saying, "Cudgel,

executioner, who was quickly beaten
by it to death.

GREED OF GOLD.

Many years ago a British ship, hav-
ing on board large consignment of
Spanish specie for a house in Rio de
Janeiro, was wrecked on the Brazilian
coast. The captain ordered some of
the casks containing the gold to be
brought on deck, but it was soon found
necessary to take to the boats without
any of the treasure. AS the boat was
about to leave, one of the officers went
back to make a final tour of the ship.
Sitting beside Il cask with Ratchet
in his hand he found one of the sailors.
Hurry up" cried the officer, 1--WE
came within an ace of going off with
out you" Pm not going" replied
the sailor, giving the cask a hearty
whack with the Ratchet, bursting vt
open, and laughing with delight as
the coin poured out around. i've
always wished to die rich. I've been
poor all my life, and this il my first and
last chance. Go ahead. I'll stay here
with my fortune" The officer could
not persuade the fellow to leave the
gold, with wIich he played as a child
with marbles, and he finally had to
leave him to his fate.

TILE BOOK OFPROYERBS.

The Book of Proverbs was written
in poetry. and contains about one
thousand of the three thousand pro-
verbs of Solomon. The whole book
abounds in allusions-now found for
the first time and precisely applicable
to the age of Solomon, to gol! and sill
yer and precious stones, to the duties
and powers of kings, to commerce.
The book of Proverbs is not on a level
with the Prophets or the Psalms. 1t
approaches human things and things
Divine from quite another side. 1t is
the gn to us that the Bible does not
despise common sense and discretion.
1t impresses upon us in the most
forcibIe manner the value of intelli'
gence, prudence, and of good educa
ton. Above all, it insists over and
over again upon the doctrine that
goodness is wisdom, and that wicked
l. ness and vice'are folly,

Arrested Last Night in a Dance
Hall
SISTER CAUSED HER R
But on Promising to Reform and
Marry She Has Been
Released

Minnie Hood is a pretty little girl Of 16
summers whose inclination is to be very.
very naughty. She was arrested last
night in the dance hall of the White Front
saloon, a tenderloin resort that is not as
pure as its name would imply, and which
is frequented by women of
regulations. Her arrest was made at the
instance of an older sister, Laura Hood,
by City Detective Murphy. No charge
was preferred against her, but she was
detained behind the bars for several
hours, and finally on promise to reform,
was released from custody, the threat Of
being sent to the reform school having a
very moralizing effect. The sister of the
girl accompanied her to the Jail, and talk
ed to her with tears in her eyes for some
time in the endeavor to show her the err
ror of the ways of the wicked.
Minnie is very much inclined to be
wayward," said she, land unless she be-
HAYES herself in the future we will be
compelled to send her to the reform
school. She is rot yet 16 and we can do
it. A good man., and h will make a
good husband for her, and provide a COM
Portable home, is willing to marry her,
n 1 think she ought to do it,"
However, the girl persisted that she did
not love this sutton well enough to become
his wife. Besides, he is old and ugly"
said she.
The sister and some Of the officers Their
told what her being sent to the reform
hoo would mean. She would have to
remain there until she was q years of age
they said, five long years, and be sub
jected to a soul-harrowing discipline, and
besides the fact of her being sent to such
an institution would have a bad effect on
her later life. The sister alike to her
for two hours along this line, and the girl
finally concluded that reformation and
matrimony was a little better than a long
term of years in the state house of cor
rection, and promised to reform and
marry, and settle down n behave her.
self. The sister then secured her release.
Neither would give the name of the man
who, through the manipulations of De-
tective Murphy's matrimonial bureau, is
to get the girl of his choice.
