Some man who is either crazy, or a
fool who thinks he is a practical joker,
has been amusing himself by sending
large but bogus checks to churches in
New York and Brooklyn. The other
day the Bushwick Avenue Reformed
Church of the latter city received a
check for $4,000, signed Robert Sneid."
When the pastor announced the re-
ceipt of the check the congregation
sang, Praise God From Whom All
Blessings Flow" and then there were
great plans made about what should be
done with the money. A day or two
later the check was returned to the
pastor from the bank on which 1t was
drawn with No good" written across
its face. Several other churches are
reported to have received similar
checks.

for he came from Gcrald's own prem
ises known as the den. In that den,
directly opposite, was one of her re-
volvers, loaded. She found it, even in
the darkness, and, hurrying forth
again, intending to chase the intruder
and alarm the sentry at the rear, IN
Countered either the same or seccnd
man close to the back door, man
who sprang past her like panther
and darted down the steps at the
back of the house. followed by two
shots from her Smith q Wesson. One
of these men wore a soldiers over
coat, for the cape, ripped from the
collar seam, was left in her hands.
Another soldiers overcoat was later
found at the rear fence, but no boots,
shoes or tracks thereof, yet both of
these men. Judging from the sound,
had been in stocking feet, or possibly
rubbers, or perhaps-but that last
suspicion she kept to herself, for
Mrs. Hay, too, was now among the
arrivals in the hOuse-full of sympa-
thy and genuine distress. The alarm,
then, had gone beyond the guard
house, and the creators thereof be-

Number s, Flint's latest addition, de-
cared that from his post at Hays
corral he had distinctly heard the
swift hoofbeats of brace of ponies
darting up the level bench to the
westward. Number had turned up
safely. and declared that at the mo-
ment the scream was heard he was
round by the flagstaff, listening to
the night chorus of a pack of yelpng
coyotes, afar out to the northwest
| and then he thought he heard scram-
bling and running down at the foot
of the bluff just as the shots were

what took him out of sight for the
moment, and later investigation

Fields going had been broached be-
fore, and, when told of it, the Wilkins
pair had been prompt with their pro-
tests. "Oi course he'd be wantin' to

INTERESTING CONVERSATION
Terse Talk of King of Prussia and
Hungarian Magnate at
Carlsbad.

Frederick III. of Prussia, always had
the reputation of being the most la
comic man of his day in Europe. 1t
became known that a Hungarian mag
nate, who was at Carlsbad taking the
waters, was very abrupt and short
in his manner of speech. SO much
so that some, even went so far as to
suggest that he was as terse and ST.
lent as the king of Prussia.
This came to Frederick's ears, so
he determined to run down to Carls-
bad to see his rival and satisfy him
self on the point of comparison
which had been raised. The magnate
was pointed out to Frederick as he
stood in the hall of his hotel.
The king went up to him, and the
following conversation was the re-
suit:
ederick-Bathing
Notwithstanding!
Frederick-Officer?
ungarian-Nagnate!
Frederick-So!
Hungarian (taling the initiative)-
Detective?
Frederick--king!
n-Congr3tulate.
/ will leave it to my readers to
Judge between the merits of the two

sired.

A LOYAL HEART.
The Noble Self-Sacrifice of n COIored
Man Who LabOrs for His
BenefuctOrs.

As the Aiilledgeville, Ga, News tells
the story, one of the young colored
men connected with Booker II. Wash
ington's school at Tusbegee has many
of the qualities which go to the
making of a hero of romance About
years ago Mr.. Edwards of NIilledge-
Vile picked up very small black boy
and undertook, in his language, "to
raise him and make something of
him." Mr.. Edwards fed and clothed
the boy, and in a general way taught
him many things; and the lad, who
was bright and capable, made such
return as he could. His name was
Garner, and in time he became known
as Garner Edwards.
After Mr.. Edwards death his two
sisters continued to care for Garner.
He was proud of his family" loved
the two ladies who were befriending
him sincerely, and as he grew older
he was a comfort and protection to
them, for they also were alone in
the world, without parents or broth
ers. When he came to manhood
he did not forsake them or the home
that had sheltered him, but insisted
that it was the only home he had ever
known, and that it was his duty and
pleasure to aid in supporting it, and
he came to bear u considerable part
of its expenses.
Garner learned the trade of
brick-mason, and finally moved to
Alabama where he became acquainted
with Pnnlya,. NNaCbinutno Nyho h ba1pe6
him in getting work that would en-
able him to take a course in the
school at Tuskegee and at the same
time be self-sustaining. Here, as in
in all of his other positions, Garner
made Il good record and won many
honors. After finishing school he
married, but continued in the employ
of the school, and is still there.
In the meantime Garners white
benefactor's have never been for
gotten. His remittances to them have
always continued. For many years
he has paid the taxes on the old
home; he has cared for the two
sisters in illness, provided the best
medical attendance and supplied
every want When one of the ladies
was painfully injured by fall, his
wife, a trained nurse, hurried to Mil
ledgeville to care for "Garner's white
folks" and performed every duty
skillfully and lovingly.
No one of any color could more
nobly have repaid debt of love. The
best part of this simple story of Il
humble souls gratitude and devotion
is that it is true.

And peace too deep for name;

before. The other overcoat was even
elder, an infantry coat, with shorter
cape. bearing company number
~" but no name. Both garments
savored strongly of the stable.
Then, before quiet was restored,
certain search was made about the
quarters. 1t was found the intruders
had obtained admission through the
basement door at the back.
But what had they taken? The sill
yer was upstairs, intact, under Mrs.
Blake's bed; so was the little safe
in which was kept her jewelry and
their valuable papers. Books, bric-a-
brac-eyerything downstairs seemed
unmolested. No item was missing
from its accustomed place. Mrs.
Blake thought perhaps the intruders
had not entered her room at all. In
Gerald's den were stacks" as he
said, of relics, souvenirs, trophies of
chase and war. but no one thing of
the intrinsic value of $50. What could
have been the object of their mid
night search? was the question all
Fort Frayne was asking as people
dispersed and went home-the doctor
intimating it was high time that Mrs.
Blake was permitted to seek repose.
Not until he had practically cleared
the house of all but her most init
mate friends, Mrs. Dade and Mrs.
Ray, would Waller permit himself to
ask question that had been upper
most in his mind ever since he heard
her story.
Mrs. Blake, someone has been ran
sacking Mr.. Fields quarters for let
ters or papers. Now-was there any
thing of that kind left by the cap
tain that-someone may have need
ed?"
Mamie Blake's head was uplfted
instantly from Marion's shoulder.
She had been beginning to feel the
reaction. For one moment the three
women looked intently into each
others faces. Then up they started
and trooped away into Gerald's den.
drawer of the big, fat-topped desk
stood wide open, and pretty Mrs.
Blake opened her eyes and mouth in
emulation as she briefly exclaimed:
Its gone!"
Then Waller went forthwith to the
| quarters of the commander and
| caught him still in conference with
his quartermaster and the guard,
| four or five of the latter being
grouped without. The major retired
to his front room, where, with Viii
! kns, he received the doctor.
