The Work of Sneak Thieves.

NJ AZ taAtf 'F@s |
morning while Mr.. Sim Westmore-
land Of Wealthy, Leon county,
was asleep in his wagon in one Of
the public wagon yards Of this
city, some miscreant jerked his
trousers out from under his head
and tled with them. Mr.. West
moreland walked up and pursued
the thief to the fence, but the latter
made good his escape, dropping
the trousers after relieving the
pockets Of about twenty-eight dol
liars. Mr.. Westmoreland was una
BILE to tell the color Of his unwel-
come visitor, and so far as we are
able TO learn, the officers have no
clue as to the identity Of the party.
! Part of the money stolen from
Mr.. westmoreland belonged to a
fund TO buy lumber for an addi-
J ton to the Wealthy school house.
. These thefts, which are growing in
number and boldness, have excit-
ed the Indignation of the people OF
Bryan, and that they will not be
q permitted to continue goes without

II Is exposed In vertical depth for full

The ledge lies Immediately on the
northern side OF the river, almost due

lies almost 5000 feet down in the
earth and across a raging torrent have
been sufiicInet reasons why 1t has not

that immense capital would be neces-
sary to work IL, and that first the can

Once in while one has reason to
suspect that animal instinct is not al
ways infallible. 1t was surely at fault
in the case Of the wasp whose action
is thus described by the Scientific
American: A friend placed three
empty walls in an open box, on shelf.
in an upright position and in close
contact. They were uncorked. A
short time afterward he was very
much surprised to find that they had
been appropriated by female mud
wasp. She had placed goodly num-
Der of spiders in the center vial, doubt
less intended to serve as food for her
future brood: then she proceeded to
deposit her eggs in the walls on either
side. She next closed tightly the
mouths of all three receptacles with a
hard lime cement. Having finished
her work, she doubtless went on her
way. satisfied that all had been done
for her offspring that thoughtful
mother could do. But just think OF
the sensations of those little wasps
after they have come into existence,
while. starving in their sealed cages,
they can plainly see. through the i'm
penetrable glass walls, the bountiful
supply Of food which was provided for
their use!

All indications at Golden point to the
fact that IL is to have a substantial min
ing boom In the near future-not q
wildcat scheme, but "A genuine boom.
All OF the discoveries that have been
made lately were well-iocated by old
time residents there.
Louis Hamburger has claim in Ce-
dar gulch, two and half miles north
east OF Golden. which is down twenty
five feet. and has clear, well-defined
vein OF ore, very much resembling the
Leadyille ores, which runs 1876 ounces
silver, 81 in gold and about ten per
cent. copper. He is confident he has a
good thing and will make two-ton
shipment 10 the Denver smelters to-
day.

pie gulch, one and half miles above
town. on the railroad. which assayed

MUSIC AND MADNESS.

Dr.. William J. O'Sullivan, whoso
name does not indicate he is Of Teuton
extraction, though he has the reputa-
ton Of being an insanity expert, con-
tributes an article to the New York
Verdict, in which he debates learned
ly the question: WAS Wagner a
musical lunatic?" Wagnerians all over
the country will naturally feel inter-
ested in some of the views advanced
by DR.. O'Sullivan-himself of melo-
dious race-although these views may
reflect upon their favorite composers
sanity and incidentally on their own.
He takes the broad ground that
there are all the characteristics Of an
unbalanced mentality in the Wagner
music-that it is not only crazy ltseH,
but tends to make lunatics Of all who
listen to 1t.
The expert points out that many
persons who profess to interpret and
admire Wagner assume lofty airs OF
musical superiority. He infers thai
this circumstance In itself Is an In
dication OF insanity. He says that
Whereas there is brigade OF must
clans detained in German Warehouses.
every last man of them, when ques-
toned on that point, professed him
self loyal adherent and admirer OF
Wagner"
1t would be unnatural to expect
members of the Wagner cult to agree
with DR.. O'Sullivan. 1t will not be
disappointing If many Of them fly into
such print as may be accessible and
denounce him and his structures In
harsh language and with heated cpl
thets.
Those uncultured folk, however, who
lack the quality Of mind that enables
them to understand the music OF ths
"Nibelungenlied" and "Gotterdammer-
Jung" may not go to the length OF de-
claring openly that Wagner was crazy
and that the people who admire him
are electioneering for strait jackets
but they will smile broadly and ap-
provingly at the doctors contention
| To them 1t comes as vindication and
a species Of sweet revenge.

BOY LOVERS DEED.

One OF the most sensational murders
ever known In the history of the state
was committed on the street at Per-
ryville, KY, the other night. Mary
Horn, a pretty 15-year-old girl, was
shot and instantly killed by Willie
Johnson, a 16-year-old boy OF prom
inent family. The motive for the
crime was rejected love. Young john
son had long been infatuated with
Miss Horn, but she did not favor his
attentions and his continued advances
were frowned upon. johnson bore her
rebuffs with good-natured resignation
for a long time, but when it became
apparent to him that Miss Horns at
fections were bestowed upon another
he grew desperate and threatened the
lives of her and his rival.
These threats were looked upon as
mere idle talk, the threatened parties
