The county boards committee on
printing -Messrs. Pearce, of Dodge
vile, Martin, of Mineral Point, and
Roberts, of Arena, met at the court
house yesterday for the purpose of
awarding the contract for doing the
printing of the county for the ensuing
two years, but no bids being received ,
they were unable to award a contract.
Supervisors Reese and Bergman,
were also present, by invitation, as
sisting in the deliberations of the com
mittee. After consultation, it was de-
cided to circulate call for special
meeting of the county board, to be held
on the End of March, to take further
action in relation to the matter. The
committee it would seem, are determ-
ined to have the county's printing
done at less than regular rates, re-
gardless Of what it may cost to accom-
plish this. AS a two days session OF
the county board costs the county
$l9l.9l, exclusive of the pay of the
sheriff and deputy clerk usually $50
each !, the saving to the county will
not probably be very great, and we
would not be surprised If the tax pay
ers of the county would just as soon
see their printers have a share of that
money as to have it saved" by Civ
ing it to the members of the county
board.

Evolved by Foxy Ouiiler," of tho
London Detective Force.
London Correspondence of the Wash
ington Post: Slater, the detective, was
in his element the other afternoon
Now, quite as the sailor mans partic-
ular element is the briny deep, Is
mystery the element of the profess
sional detective. He revels in mys-
terry, he lives in mystery, he glances
to left and right in mystery, he knits
his brow in mystery, and he envelops
himself with mystery as with mack
intosh. That is what Slater, the de-
tective, did the other afternoon. Some
bold burglars, some audacious sneak
thieves. had taken G60,000 in bank
notes from PARIS bank in broad day
light, right under the shadow of the
Bank of England. Every one was
speaking of that robbery. speculating
as to how the job had been done, and
whittier the big bank notes had van
ished. The notes were almost all or
big denominations. There were thirty
six S1,000 notes and twenty-five E5oO
notes, and these naturally would be
most difficult to pass. The bank ofn-
cials. the police and the detective force
issued the numbers of the notes and
telegraphed all over the world about
them. OF course Slater was as much
excited as any one else, but he ex-
pressed himself more sagely, more
enigmatically than many of his col
leagues of smaller fry. This rob-
berry" said he. slowly, impressively,
like a hack politician prophesying all
about campaign, this robbery was
committed in one of three ways"
Slater paused. took out a pocket pen
and with it drew schedule on his
blotting pad. 1T was committed, he
continued, first, by some one on the
outside; or, second, by some one on
the inside or, third, by some one on
the outside in collusion with some one
on the inside" Then Slater looked up
for APPROPRIATION a moment, and was
about to proceed, when the office boy
announced a visitor on urgent busi-
ness. The interview terminated then
and there, but shall never forget the
detectives artistic air Of mystery as
he sagely unfolded his theory OF the
eco, 900 robbery at PARIS bank.
