plie0:
Don't be afraid, he wont shoot;
here's your horse. =
Just then several pedestrians
were passing up and down in front
of the Methodist church on the
other side of the street, and a lady
and two girls were coming down
towards Washington avenue. Lar
son dropped the gun but the lady
and girls went around another way.
Three minutes later, after the crowd
had increased materially, Larson
brought the gun to his shoulder a
second time, and fired. The animal
dropped dead, bleeding profusely.
Larson walked up to the dead
horse, placed the collar around its
neck and demanded the money that
had been put up as wager.
Just as he did SO, Policeman Hen
ry Holdhouse, who was''standing in
the crowd, and who did not believe
that Larson would dare to shoot the
gun in SO public place, or in the
city limits, walked up to him and
placed him under arrest.
Larson was taken down to the
police court, where complaint was
prepared charging him with dis
charging fire arms within the city
limits. He asked time to secure an
attorney, and in few minutes had
G. T. Howard of the firm of Bald
win & Howard in the court room.
Mr.. Howard asked until ten o'clock
Monday morning to enter plea,
and this was granted.
''But you will have to furnish a
500 bond as warranty for your
appearance at that time remarked
Judge Chadderdon. ':That is easy
enough, remarded Mr.. Larson,
as he drew a wallet from an in
side pocket, and laid down 500 in
bills before the Court.
In the meantime tie dead anima,
had been dragged around to the
east side of the stable and during
the night it was hauled off to the
city dumping grounds.
Public sentiment was quite severe
on the shooting in SO public place.
When Mr. Larson made formal
derand on G. w. Vaughn
for the wager, Mr.. Vaughn refused
to turn the money over on the
ground that Mr.. Larson was to
place the collar on the horse with.
out assistance, and inasmuch as
Gus. was holding the rope. attached
to the halter on the animal, Mr.
Vaughn claimed that Larson had
assistance. It is believed that the
bets will be returned to the makers.
The court room was filled when
the case was called at ten O'Clock
Monday morning. people evidently
believing that Larson would fight
the case. Bnt when the complain,

of guilty, and after Attorney How
ard stated to the court that the VIC
lation of the ordinance was merely 6

first offense he hoped the court
would make the sentence as light as
possible, Judge Chadderdon i'm

cuniary prospects of his house led him
to Belgium. where he followed events
moving in the wake of the army under
Wellington. He even ventured on the
edge of the battle of Waterloo, so eager
was he to CLEAN the latest intelligence,
and witnessed the defeat of the French
from the high ground in front of the
chateau of HougCumont. AS soon as
the battle was decided he rode as fast
as his horse would carry him to Brus-
sells, where chaise was waiting to
take him to Ostend, which he reached
at day break on June 19. The sea was
rough, but he hired brave fisherman
to peril his life for the sum of 80
pounds, and the same night was safe
in Dover harbor.
Posting on to London, sleeping in
his chaise. he reached the city early
leaning up against his accustomed pill
lar at the stock exchange. He looked
solemn and anxious. and whispered to
some of his acquaintances a rumor
that Marshal Blucher and Wellington
had suffered defeat. and that Napo-
leon was master of the field and Of the
day The news spread. Down went
the government securities. Roths-
child's known agents sold along with
the rest but his unknown and secret
agents bought still more largely, pick
ing up every bit of paper they could
lay hands on until the following day.
On the afternoon of that day-the 21st
the real news reached London. Ma
than Rothschild was the first to inform
his friends on the stock exchange of
the happy events. Governments rose
as fast as they had fallen. and no soon
er were the official returns of the bat
tie made lown to the world than it
was found that the house of Rothschild
had netted 100000 pounds sterling by
the transaction. The monetary dynas-
ty of the family was from that hour Sc
cure.

ROTHSCHILD'S WAY.
How a Vast Fortune was Made In Govern
nent Funds,

The vast fortune of Nathan Meyer
Rochschild was made in the purchase
of government funds. In his day
there were neither railroads nor tele-
graphs, and news travelled slowly. But
he kept and personally suDerintended
the finest flock of carrier pigeons the
world ever knew. which brought him
early information of the movements
Of continental armies in whose wakes
his active agents followed Every piece
of advance news which he obtained in
this way brought him the gain of thou
sands of pounds sterling at the stock
exchange, the manipulation OF which
he had mastered TO an UNEXPECTED de-
gree. He did not wait on the govern
ment, but made the government wait
on him and the ministry at last became
his debtor.

TRAMpS IN SIBERIA
Years Of Transportation Have DeIugcd the
Land With Criminals.

Says Solomon. Russian director-in-
chief of prison administration. in The
Independent: From 1907 until 1879
Siberia received from European
Russia S64,549 transported persons, in
cluding their families. That is near
ly the sixth part of the actual popu-
lation of Siberia If we confine our
selves to the last dozen years we shall
see that Siberia has received in that
space of time 100.5S2 transported per-
sons, of whom 95,S76 were men and
4706 were women. OF the families of
transported persons there were 155
husbands, H. ,556 wives and 10000 child
dren. Siberia has thus received in the
course of twelve years 159, ,191 individ-
uals, one-thirty-sixth of the total popu-
lation. If one takes into consideration
the number of the TRANSPORTED only
without their families we shall see
that during that period Siberia has
received for each 81 inhabitants a
criminal or a man recognized as more
or less dangerous in the country of his
origin. These figures permit us to
draw certain important conclusions.
First-Transportat does not contrib
ute to the colonization of country.
owing to the great preDonderance Of
unmarried persons. Second-The
number of vicious elements introduced
into the country passes all reasonable
proportion. Of the number of tram
sported males. only 1856 were mar
ried; the other 1892, or 81 1-3 per
cent. were unmarried.
These conclusions are completely
confirmed by a detailed study of the
conditions of transported persons. The
number of transported persons resid
ing in Siberia in 1896 was 29S,574. or
nearly 5000 individuals of both sexes.
Half of these were criminals condemned
code, the other half under the admins
trative authority. But they can hardly
be distinguished one from the other.
The oDprobrium of their situation and
the misery of their existence have re-
duced them to an absolutely uniform
mass. The third of this mass. 100000
men, escape all control The place of
their residence is unknown to the po-
lice. They steal on the highways and
in the villages, they beg and extort
money in every way possible. In the
summer they bivouac under the stars,
and conceal themselves in the forests
of Siberia; in the winter they move to-
ward the cities and use every method
to secure a lodgment IN the local pri-
sons. The second 100000 men are
equally in q state of vagabondage, but
they change their residence to find
work. If they have not lost the habit
of work, and if they preserve some
spirit of honesty, they may succeed in
establishing themselves again; if not,
they soon augment the ranks of Grim
inal vagabonds. OF the 100, 600 who are
left about 10000 are cultivators of the
earth and furnish an element of order.
1t is remarkable that his number cor
responds to the number of the
transported married persons. The
other 70 900 are workmen. So long as
they are young and in good health they
gain their daily bread. but when in
trinity comes many of them take to
begging and often terminate their ex-
istence in prison, which they have
avoided until that time

Foreign Relations Committee Considers
the Hay-Pauncefote Agreement. 4n
WASHINGTON, Feb. S.-The senate
committee on foreign relations met to
consider the Nicaragua canal treaty.
The discussion was animated. While
some opposition was manifested, it was
not Of such a character as to indicate the
defeat Of the treaty; but that it would
be amended there seemed to be little
doubt. One of the amendments pro-
posed is that the whole of the Clayton
Bulwer treaty shall be abrogated. 1t is
said by members of the committee fa-
voring this change that there is no need
of keeping alive any portion of the old
treaty. Another change suggested is in
regard to the protection Of the canal.
The treaty declares there shall be no
Notifications and it is said this will pre-
vent the United States from erecting
batteries which are by some considered
absolutely necessary in view of the in
surrections that occur from time to time
in South American countries. Tits pos
sible that this language will be modified
SO that such protection as the United
States deems necessary will be afforded
along the route of the canal. .y
