make the express companies inno-
cent aids to their own robbery by
locking up one of a gang in box and
then shipping him on train known
to have rich packages aboard. At
some isolated spot the robber would
step out of his box, hold up the mes
senger and make off with his plunder.
This scheme was employed SO often
that messengers became suspicious
of any large box put into their cars.
Just before the adventure that be-
fell me, of which I'll tell you, fell
low put up at hotel in St. Paul, and
one afternoon told the clerk to cali
an expressman and give him box
which was to be shipped on curtain
train that night. The visitor was not
seen about the hotel after that, The
scamp was in the box, from which he
emerged about midnight and robbed
the express messengers safe of thou
sands of dollars. /
"About that time I was running as
messenger on the Burlington, and
those box robberies made me as nerv-
Gus as cricket. / used to quiver
every time l got package big
enough to hold half man, and I
made sure on each trip that my gunA
were ready for action. Nothing un-
usual happened for a month or SO
after that st. Paul incident, but ono
night, when we stopped at little
lonely station, the agent put aboard
long coffinlike box, and laughingly
remarked. Look out for it, Bills
there's man in it, He was only
joking, but / didn't see the joke. T
was scared through and through, and
you can bet that / piled as many
packages as there were in the car
right on top of the latest addition to
my freight. But l wasn't satisfied
even then, and as the train sped on I
became more nervous and suspicious.
Finally couldn't stand it any longer,
and l prepared for action. First 1 got
out revolver and my watch, and
then, mastering what little of my
courage was left. / blurted out:
"If there's man in that box I'll
give him just minute to come out.
If he doesn't step out I'll fill him full
| of lead'
"Half minute passed before there
was any response, but before the
minute was up the end of the box
was opened and huskily built fell
low crawled out and threw up his
hands. / stopped the train and the
crew secured my visitor. He served
a good long term for attempted train
| robbery"

Personal AND LITERARY.

Lord Rosebery says the average
reader spends too much time in
"munching crab apples, unconscious
of the choicest fruits of the tree of
knowledge" ftt
Tolstoi may be under the ban &C.
clesiastically in Russia,' but he has
standing in academic circles still. A
seminar in literature in the univer-
sity at Kieff is studying his literary
work.
Senator Frye has love for novels.
His camp at Rangeley lakes, in Maine,
is stocked with all kinds of fiction,
from the thrilling tale of mysterious
Mick, the Irish Detective" to the
world-famous works of Balzac.
The poet, Swinburne. writes Will
liam Armstrong in the Critic, has for
25 years been, the guest of Theodore
Watts-Dupton. He lives in absolute
seclusion from the world, recluse
poet and the guest of poet.
The objection of one of the parish
toner's of Dr.. Ludlow, the author OF
Deborah, that his pastor ought not
to spend so much time in literary
work, raises an interesting question
about the duties of the modern pas
tori! II has also proved to be a re-
markably good advertisement Of the
novel. Ns
Documents are reported to have
been discovered in the Vatican IL
brary bearing on the never-ceasing
controversy over Mary, queen of Scots
The letters are said to make it clear
that Rizyio was not professional
musician, but q priest, who had adopt
ed a disguise in order to be near the
queen, to minister to her bodily anc
spiritual needs.
Mr., John Lane, of the Bodley Head
the London publisher of beautiful
books, is visiting in America. The
effort for better books he says ha.
given healthy stimulus to popular
taste. .'The reading public demands
~ in fiction the telling, the clever
the pregnant; (2) in general litera
ture the healthy, the trenchant, the
true; (3l in poetry the real, the con
vinced, the inspired. The keynote o.
the demand is: 'Of new work, what
ever its class, let us have the rea
thing revive for us the old where il
surpnsses the new"

Queer Trait. Of Locomotivcs.

"The queerest thing about machin-
ery," said an old railroad man, lis that
different machines, all built on exact
Iy the same lines, with every part of
the same size and of the same material,
possess distinct individuality. Take
locomotives, for instance. A railroad
will build a batch of engines, say, 20,
of a certain class. All of them will
be of the same dimensions, the same
details in every particular, and yet
every one will behave in different
manner. There will be as much diff
ference between them as between 20
men. Some will steam well, others
not. One will be cranky in certain
particular, and second in still an
other way. One will be. stiff, rigid;
another loose jointed. And then, Just
like members of the human family,
some will be remarkably unlucky,
through no fault of their own, while
their mates go through life without a
scratch. ."-Galyesto News.

Vinegar from Prunes.

! The Oregon agricultural experio
ment station is performing very
useful service in some experiments
which is it making in producing vim
egar from prunes. The most seri.
Gus problem which confronts oue
prune growers is the profitable dis.
posal OF the very small prunes and OF
that portion of the larger sizen
which partly ferments in drying.
Prunes, being very sweet, will pro-
duce large quantity either of alco,
hol or of vinegar. The vinegar pro,
.duced from prune juice in Oregon ID
said to be so strong as to require
its dilution by one-half to bring is
down to the commercial standard.
If the prune vinegar proves satis-
factory to consumers its manufac.
ture will prove of great value to our
prune growers as an outlet for tho
inferior stock which, to some extent.
they cannot avoid producing San

The common barnyard fowl has from
nine to, twelve distinct vocal sounds,
all of which are comprehended by its
chickens and by other fowls. There
can be no doubt that the speech of
man arose, in the beginning, from
similar sources. Gesture speech was
frequent. Many sounds were imita-
tive. Purely conventional and nom
initiative sounds were adopted for
convenience, just as deaf mutes now
invent arbitrary sounds to stand for
the names of friends, etc. 1t is not
precisely true, then, to say that "lan-
guage begins where interiection
ends" However it originated it is
the condition of progress. AS Ro-
names said: "a manlike creature be-
came human by the power of speech" !"
When did speech originate? Romanes
thinks that our human ancestor may
have been in the age of flint when he
added to gesture; vocal tones and
facial grimaces the power of speech.

Immense Expense Of Decorating
single Rooms I'm some Rich
Residences.


The recent sale of Battle Abbey
for { 200, 0,000-a figure at which the
property is considered almost ruin-
ously cheRp-giyes some small idea
of the vast sums that may be expend-
ed on ones domicile. Eaton hall, the
duke of Westminster's Cheshire seat,
rost the late holder of the title consid.
erably over 100000 to build, and
probably even this figure would go
only a very small way toward pur-
chasing any one OF some score of
London houses as they stand, says
the London Mail.
Perhaps none Of these palaces
strike the visitor with vivid sense
of their wealth more than do Spencer
house in Arlington street, and Nor
folk house, in st. James square.
Stafford house, st. James palace, the
largest of them by far, contains
probably more moneys worth than
any of the others, but is not so
lavishly decorated.
One may discover that for single
sideboard without any history or age
to enhance its value the sum of & 500
may be paid; for a suite to accom-
pany it anotlGr & 500; for carpet
for the dining-room, ESQ; for cur
tains for the same room, C IL yard;
on fireplace and mantelpiece R3o0
may he laid out; the tapestry and
carved paneling with which TO clothe
the walls will cost e100 per panel,
and the ceiling, if Whistler or a
Sargent decorates ID, will run away
with 10000. Altogether, one may
invest e1i,l70 on the dining-room--
one of the cheapest apartments in
the house. The mere mural decora-
tion in the grand drawing-room will
cost more, and its other appoint
ments four or five times as much.
Then there win be three or four
smaller drawng-rooms, boudoirs and
music rooms to furnish at proper
tionate cost; n morning room or two,
which will cost mere 10000
apiece; library, that cannot very
well be furnished in keeping with the
rest for less than fl2,0oo, including
| books.
With regard to the bedrooms, f7o0
apiece may he paid for some OF the
suites and G 100 for the beds. These
| figures are by no means fancy prices
that it would be difficult to spend.
To such a firm as Warnings they rep
resent items that there would be
easily supplied

THE POWER OF SPEECH.
a Growth Like other Attributes of
Man, from Crude Begin
! nings.

Speech is the result of slow proc
ess Of natural growth and there is no
human race that does not possess 1t.
lf in the present state of the world
some philosopher We're to wonder
how man ever began to build those
houses, palaces and vessels which we
see around us we should answer that
those were not the things that man
began with, says Science. The saw
age who first tied the, branches of
shrubs to make himself shelter was
not an architect and he who first
foated on the trunk of tree was not
a navigator. So II is with speech,
which grew from rude beginnings.
All the more sintelligent animals can
express simple conditions Off mind
both by sound and gesture. The dog
can emit four or five sounds each
fully understood by its companions.

"That was good story about
Johann Beck and his trip across the
Atlantic in box, like an express
PACKAGE" remarked an officer of one
of the big express companies the
other day, says the New York Trib-
une. 1T reminds me of stratagem

robbers in the west, and of an ex-
perience that ! had when was
messenger on the road. 1t was a
favorite trick Of robbers in the sparse
