THOUSAND-DOLLAR BOND.

| Mr.. Harry l.. Clifford, $40 North
Stricken street, has just had returned
| to him a $1,000 Mississippi and Ohio
Railroad bond which he lost March in
the street, the return being due to a
peculiar chain of happenings that are
much interest He notified the detect
i've department of the loss and asked
| for assistance. Detective Coughlin was
| placed on the case The paper was
found on the street by little girl, who
| sold it to another child for cents. The
| last little girl took the bond home. Her
| father, not being sure of its worth, took
| it to a friend, who directed him to a
| stock broker, who, in turn, cent 1t to
New York and had it negotiated Sew
| eral days ago Detective Coughlin was
making a round of the pawnshops, when
he discovered an overcoat which looked
like one that been stolen from the friend
who had directed the holder of the bond
to the stock brokers'. Detective Cough
lin went to his home to get him to so
and identify the coat, and the gentle
man wanted to put it off until the next
day The detective told him that it
would be impossible, as he had an en-
gagement in connection with lost rail-
road bond. Inquiries followed, and the
man told of his friend getting bond
from his little girl. The rightful owner
and the man who had had the bond ne
gotiated were gotten together, the find
er was willing to return it, and the re-
suit is that Mr. Clifford has again his
81 900 Mississippi and Ohio Railroad
bond and is supremely happy.-Balti-

But are they successful as cattle rais-

1t know of many who have become
wealthy at it in few years. The Eaton
boys of Pittsburg went to ranch near
Denver, Col, one time just for the ex-
perence, and in short time they own
ed an immense place of their own, with
thousands of head of cattle. Their
ranch is now a popular resort for Pitts
burgers to spend vacations and get a
taete of western life. l have known as
