with his thoughts and be happy. Atel
ephone message came for him in the
afternoon. 1t was from q big store in
State street.
"Helloi Are you married?" came the
question over the telephone.
"Yes. Is it any of your businessP"
ut may be. There's n woman over
here who says she's your wife,
well, what of it?"
YOU'D better come over and see"
He hurried to the store, doubling and
agitated.
His wife had been shopping. She
bought things so literally that the
salesman who served her was delight.
ed. The bill of goods amounted to SIS
and it was for trinkets only, such as
women buy who have lots of money
She handed over four five-dollar bills
She waited for her change. The sales
man returned, but he was not smiling
suavely.
I'm sorry, madam, but these bills
are bad"
"Bad?" And with long, cold, with
ering look she gathered up the bills
and handed over two ten-dollar bills.
After another wait the salesman came
back, and he was not smiling then
either. He was laboring to be calm and
dignifed.
I'm sorry to inform you, madam
that these bills are bad also"
She started to say something to him.
but just at that moment the right
words were too hard to find. But She
could still look chilling glances at
him. She slowly picked up the two re
turned bills and stuffed them into the
off side of her purse. Her fingers were
not moving deity, but she managed to
draw out a $50 bill. With icy delibera-
ton she passed 1t over the counter.
"See If that is bad, too" she said.
with fine irony.
She was breathing hard, but other
wise she was perfectly calm while she
waited. Soon the salesman came back
His face was in hard, set lines.
1T is" he said, with an effort.
give me that money, you--you-
wretchI"
I'm sorry, madam, but"
The overworked salesman was saved
the labor of finishing such difficult
sentence. Ahouse detective stepped up
beside her and finished it for him by
telling her she would have to come to
the office of the superintendent. He
was police officer, with a star on his
vest, and she avoided a scene by going
with him.
Her husband settled the matter by
telling the superintendent the whole
story and paying the bill with good
money.

HUSBAND PAID BILL.
Uses Counterfeit Notes to Stop
Wife's Nocturnal Thievine.
She spends Them, and He Il Called by
Phone just I'm Time to Save Her
from Arrest-Joke Cost
Him SIS.

The Chicago Tribune reports this
story of married man in that city
whose wife had acquired the habit of
going at night when ne slept to where
his trousers hung and taking money
from their pockets, and in this instance
the consequences are interesting. He
is the proprietor of business that
brings him large income. There are
rush hours in his business. and at such
times bad money finds its way to his
Golfers. In the course of year, usual
ly, he gathers a large bundle of coun-
terfeit notes of large and small denom-
nations
He was thinking one day of some
plan to break his wife of her habit OF
nocturnal borrowing. While he was
studying out the plan he thought also
of the bundle of bad bills then in his
safe. He never knew just why he was
keeping the bad money until that mo-
ment.
That's brighter idea than 1 have
had for years." he said, and he smiled
with satisfaction that evening as he
filed three of his pockets with the
counterfeits. He took no other sort OF
money, except ten cents for car fare.
He couldn't go to sleep that night,
and could hardly keep from chuckling
with mirth. He managed, however, to
simulate sleep, and out of corner of
his eye saw his loving helpmeet help
herself to the bills. She took some from
each of the three rolls, thinking he
wouldn't miss them. The next MORN
ing he hurried off to his office, so his
wife wouldn't get time to repent and
tell him what she had done.
Several times that day he went to a
window and looked out, Just to be alone

SATURDAY, APRIL IS 1000
THE RIDE TO SCHOOL

When the snow is coming down,
And the fences, bare and brown
Gaping white,
And there's not breeze to stir
Flakes that held to branch and burr
Through the night:
Then there comes happy feeling in the
memory of the day
When l rode to school with father in the OLE
pung sleigh.
There was snow the same as now,
Topping every branch and bough
Through the wood:
And the spruces seemed to be
Each a giant Christmas tree
Where It stood
Bent and hung with toy and don. till
wished that 1 could stay,
Andwould turn aboutand watch them from
the old pung sleigh.
Then the shapes along the walls
Queer old women holding shawls
In their laps;
And the tents without door,
And the balsam stumps that wore
Pointed caps:
And the tracks across the snow, where a
squirrel frisked away
When he heard the squeak and rattle of the
old pung sleigh.
There were thimbles you could see
On the big thorn apple tree
Near the bars:
And the fakes that fell about
As held my mittens out,
Looked like stars:
And beside the road hemlock reached It's
arms across the way,
And would sift shower on us In the OLD
pung sleigh.
And the lash on fathers whip,
How ii used to trail and dip
In the snow.
can hear the chickadees
Singing in the maple trees,
And know
From the pleasures OF the present would
gladly turn away
Just to ride to school with father in the old
pung sleigh.

LIBERTY---0R WHAT

HE day was drawing to its close.
Already the sun had begun to tint
the western sky with soft crimson
glow. The windows in the weather
beaten barracks caught and held the
rosy light cs though loath to let the
brightness go, and even the little
Ithatched cottage under the hill was
bathed in the glory.
Within the little cottage under the
hill preparations for the evening meal
were being made. Back and forth
ncross the room tai, straight figure
moved, full of that supple grace of the
southern woman, says the Chicago
Herald.
"Zoritsa, have you heard what deci-
sion has been made?"
"No, mother" answered the girl.
Capt. Newcombe told me to-day that
they were all on the tiptoe of expecta
ton, but determined to fight it out and
win, no matter what happens"
"The captain is very gallant. II all
the men were as brave as he there
would be no doubt about an American
victory"
81 am afraid your criticism is un-
just, mother. You are letting ten come
under the ban of your displeasure be-
cause you chance to know the merits
of one. Capt. Newcombe thinks all his
men brave"
"Well. we need not complain of Lieut..
Hopes courage, for he certainly dis
played perseverance, ut least, before he
won you, after many rebuffs."
"Oh, yes, Lieut.. Hope is exceedingly
brave, if you call persistence in love

AN OLD SOLDIER ROBBED.
The Thief Is Arrested But Succeeded in Is
Gaping From the Officers.

The Thief Is Arrested But Succeeded in Is
Gaping From the Officers.
An old soldier named Lauer, whose
place of residence we have been un-
able to learn, came to Oakland one
day this week to spend few days
and last night formed the acquaint-
ance of Charles Saylor, of near Deer
Park. who proposed that they go to
Mountain Lake Park for which place
they started, Lauer being slightly
under the influence of liquor. At a
point near the residence of John A.
Delawder, which is midway between
Oakland and the Park, Saylor as
saulted La uer, knocking him down
and stealing from his pocket $50 in
cash. Lauer made his way back to
Oakland and made information
against Saylor for whom a warrant
was issued by Justice Gonder and
placed in the hands of Officer Hessen
for service The officer deputised
Jerry Browning and two other young
men to assist in making the arrest,
knowing that Saylor was desperate
character. The officer and his depu-
ties went to Deer Park and succeeded
in placing the man under arrest, but
while escorting him along the street
he made his escape and darted off into
the darkness. He was closely pur-
sued but succeeded in eluding the Of
ficers and has not been seen since.
Saylor is the same man who was
sent to the Maryland Penitentiary
some years ago for q term of three
years for robbing the Pysell house at
Deer Park and also for assaulting
and throwing from moving train q
tramp who fell under the wheels and
as result one of his feet was cut off.

A Strong Combination.

The Opera House management an
noupces as their attraction Saturday,
Sept. Sth Mr.. Frank Adams, in Uncle
Hez. This comedy, while belonging
to the rural class, is entirely different
from others. The plot introduces all
or nearly all of the familiar charac-
ters that we know in the smaller
country towns-character that we
meet every day in real life-but the
combination is new and novel and
while we seem in touch with old
friends, we see them in new situations
and climaxes. The costume and
make up of each character is perfect
in every detail and the surroundings
are in keeping with them. The play.
written especially for this company,
is bright and clean and sparkles with
real fun. The ludicrous adventures
of Uucle Hez are amusing in the ex-
treme and his agility and nerve in
time of danger give zest to the piece.
His ever ready pocket book figures
largely and his idea of society is
unique. The supporting company of
actors, singers and dancers are capa-
BILE, and theatrical festival of fun
may be expected The prices are, Is,
25 and 30 cts.

The Show Arrived and Left

William Jennings Bryan, the ad-
vance agent and also manager, men
agerie and artist of the only Demo
cratic aggregation now making one
day stands in the country, arrived in
Oakland Tuesday afternoon on
special train and after lingering for
few minutes, during which time Mr..
Bryan made his appearance on the
rear platform of the car and made
few remarks, saying: MY friends, |
find this big country in which to
make a campaign even leaving out
the Philippines" The devoted and
deluded followers of Mr.. Bryan
thought he had scored point and
howled in unison. The train then
pulled ON to Deer Park to which
point Smiths Military Band and a
large number of gentlemen had pre-
ceded the special on train No. 46,
where Mr.. Bryan was the guest of
Hon. John Il. McGraw until about
six O'Clock when the party went on
to Cumberland where Mr.. Bryan adj
dressed crowd the same night.
Yesterday morning Mr.. Bryan went
to Morgan's Grove, w. Va. where he
made a speech and returning to Deer
Park in the afternoon stopped long
enough in keyser to deliver another
address. Arriving at Deer Park late
yesterday afternoon he was the guest
at large dinner party given in his
honor by Mr.. McGraw at which many
notable local personages were present.
Mr.. Bryan passed through Oakland
for the west this morning about eight
o'clock.

A Narrow Escape,

Sunday afternoon Mr.. and Mrs.
James W. leathers were driving along
the Deer Park road when a buckle
attaching the rein to a bit of their
horse became detached. The animal
at once became unmanageable and
bolted. Mr.. and Mrs. Leathers were
thrown out and the lady received
numerous bruises in addition to a
severely sprained wrist and cut
above her eye. Since the accident
she has suffered great pain. The
horse ran on from the place where
the accident took place to the farm of
T. W. CasJeel, Esq, where it was
stopped
