cashing of a draft for 800. This did
not last long, and accompanied by the
member he had drafts for him from
$40 to $50 cashed at a number Of the
leading saloons and hotels and few
banks. Altogether the amount was for
some $400 or $500. Again he disap.
peared and went to New York. All the
drafts were as good as gold.
THE third time he came he brought
over couple of chums from New
York, old classmates at college, he
explained. All three were plentifully
supplied with money, which they spent
literally. Strange to say, they all
went broke the next day and went
from saloon to saloon, hotel to hotel,
getting checks cashed. They would
enter a place have a confidential talk
with the proprietor, cash a check for
S25 or $50 and buy one drink. Then
they would pass ON to the next place
and repeat. All the checks by the
'chums' were on New York banks ami
for small amounts and the young man
from the west contented himself with
indorsing his friends paper The
small amounts and the nearness Of the
banks QuleLeu all Suspicion.
"The next day, long before the New
York checks were heard from, our
western friend paid a visit to all the
places where he was acquainted. He
and his New York chums had got into
trouble the night before and they were
in the station house, while he was
trying to raise money to get them all
out and square matters so their par
ents would not hear of their escapade.
This plea was worked successfully on
almost everyone who had money. He
would not look at less than 800 and
never asked for more than $500
Where he could not get the ready
money he took an Endorsement. In
uuiry revealed that the two friends
were in the station and the story seem
ed very straight
"That night the two chums were re
leased and all three quietly disap
peared. The next day all the checks
came back from New York, and the
week following saw all his drafts re
turned. He had closed his account IN
the western bank and his whereabouts
were unknown. The Congressman took
out his pencil and figured the matter
out. The first night he met the youns
man the latter had expended about 81
in drinks; the next night S15. AT va
rious other times he had expended ar
average of $40 a night for five nights
! His chums had spent about $50 be
tween them during their stay.
"All their hotel bills amounted Il
about $780, or the total money spen
by the crowd was about $3.50. Thel
coup netted them about $1,000 on tn
small checks and between $4,000 an'
$4,000 on the western drafts. TIT
Congressman found himself an indors
er for 81 800 of the latter and hi
friends were on 5000 more Altogethe

cleaned up over $4,000 to the good ant

THUMB REVEALS CHARACTER.

Unsuspected Traits Discovered by "A
study of This Member.
The thumb confesses the man; no
man is clever enough to deceive his
thumb. For all time 1t has been divid-
ed into three parts typifylng the three
qualities that master the world-will,
logic and love. The first or nail phal-
ange signifies will; the second, logic;
the third, which is the boundary of the
Mount of Venus, love. When the thumb
is unequally developed, and the first
phalange is extremely long. II is
neither love nor logic that governs the
individual, but merely sheer will. If
the middle phalange be much longer
than the first reason predominates yet
the man may not have the power to
will himself TO do that which his rea-
son dictates. When the third phalange
is long and the thumb Is short, man is
revealed as the slave of the senses,
guided neither by Will nor reason. II
the thumb be supplemented the indl-
yldual is easy going, speHdthrift, care
less OF time, money, energy, opportu-
nifty and all things. If IL be firm
jolnted he is cautious, watchful, keen.
diplomatic, tireless In planning, conf
dent and sure OF success, self-poised
and self-controlling. says a writer in
the Ledger Monthly.
Souvaroff, celebrated for the strength
of his Will; Danton that magnanimous
soul, who took upon him the disgrace
of Il crime TO save his country; Calico,

ers, those bold innoyators- infalll-
bly, very small thumbs. Noltaire, the
man of the world, whose heart was
subject to his brain, had enormous
thumbs.

possibilities In store for her when her
father. Salmon F. Chase. was proposed
as a candidate for the Presidency In
1856. and again in 1864. When he was
called to Cabinet position he had been
married three times, and 1t was whis-
pered that he was about to make a
certain lady his fourth wife. But the
resolute Kate had made up her mind
that no one should step In between her
and her father, and one day when the
lady called she was made so keenly
to feel that she was an intruder that
the budding romance was bllghted and
Chase remained wldower.
Even after Rates brilliant marriage
TO Senator William Sprague, of Rhode
Island, she still cherished the ambition
to see her father Installed in the White
House, and was most gracious to those
who were likely to be influential In
helping her to advance his interests.
When he was appointed Chief Justice
she saw in 1t only scheme to head off
his Presidential aspirations forever.

In 1868 she nearly succeeded In get

In session In Tammany Hall. New York
City, and she kept In communication
with 1t by messengers, waiting anxious
ly for the moment when 1t was believ-
ed her father would carry all by storm.
On the fourth day the moment seemed
to have arrived, and her heart leaped
with joy. But the expected stampede
did not come, and the impatient daugh-
ter was almost moved to go herself to
Tammany Hall. Indeed, there were
afterward some politicians who OBJ
served that IL she could have gone
among the delegates on the floor, she
might have been able at the crucial
point to have swung the convention to
the Chief Justice. Instead, Horatio
Seymour was nominated; and Kate
Sprague that night was the most un-
happy woman In the land.
