OF ESNpioSiNeS.
An extraordinary account is given Of
how safe was opened by robbcr
who had at his disposal no instrument
of any kind, but opera ted merely with
his finger nail. The person who accom-
plished the feat revealed lis intention
OF roDGing the iron safe il Il hotel to
another young man, who happened to
be the cousin of the hotel proprietor.
AS Il matter of course the proposed
scheme to rob was revealed to the own
CT of the hotel, and Il little before mid
night, when it was TO be put into exc
cution, Il couple OF detectives were con-
ccalcd behind the Office counter.
y short time aftcrward the robber
entered the Office gently, without either

the massive iron receptacle, the com
bination of which ii was evident he did
not know. He had, however, rcsorted
to an ingenious plan Of his own.
lie had pared the nail Of his index
finger OH the right hand until the blood
vessels were exposed. Then by placing
the sensitive wGund OF. the combna-
ton lock he could distinguish the move
mentS of tie tumblers rs they fell. For
more than an hour did he work. and at
last there came IL sharp click. and he
swung back the doors OF the safe.

tanned when Il dampcr was thrown up

HlOoIshed .Ayertcd.

Opic Read, the novelist, once told OF
his experiences as journalist in Ken
tucEy many years ago.
There was n good deal of news" he
said, such as shootings and kniiinSs,
but this news was not regarded rs inn
portant, and little attention was paid
to it. remember once when local
feud broke out afrcsh when members
of the opposing sides met at the county
scat There were hot words, blow
was struck, and weapons were drawn,
when the sheriff intcrfcrcd. lie loudly
announced that lie would not tolerate
any violence, ordered the parties to
separate, and when his orders were not
obcycd he began shooting. l forget
whether he killed eight or nine, but
know that in describing the incident in
my paper I commended the sheriff for
his prompt action and bravery and
added the paragraph, There is no
doubt but for the prompt action of tho
sheriff there would have been blood

LITTLE BARBADOS.

None of the great nations of the
earth is half so proud Of itself as the
little colony of Barbados, n mere speclS
In the Caribbean, which calls itself
"lhe little England of the tropics
Alone of all England's West Indian
isles. Barbados has belonged to Eng
land ever since it was first colonizcd
by white men. 1t has never been CON
Qucrcu by the enemy, as the others
have been. This fact naturally gives
the BarbadianS Il good conccit Of them
selves and indeed makes them Just
about the proud"st people on earth.
When just before the Criinean war
England was Eesitating whether she
should attack Russia the Barbudians
sent this message to the cabinet:
Go ahead. Don't be afraid. Barba-
dos is behind you
King George was offered an asylum
by little England when Napoleon
Bonarartc proposed to invade Eng.
land.
"lf yon were driven from England
III" BNrhadians wrote, "come here. You
will l,2 safe with us to protect you.'
When EnGland was suffering her
worst revcrscs in South Africa the
Barbadians were not worried They
knew that IL matters really reached a
crisis Barbados would go in and finisl,

pers seriously put it.

THEY WANT RECOGNITION
Venezuela Revolutionists Will Peti-

Their Belligerenoy.

New York. June 3.The Venezuelan
.revolutiontsts who, for over year and a
half. have been fighting the government,
are to petition the United States for rec
ognition as belligerents.
The request Of the rebels is based on
the fact that they are in absolute possess
sion of all the ports Of Importance in the
country except La Guayra, Maraciabo and
Puerto Cabello, and so hold the entire
eastern portion Of Venezuela over which
they exercise the power Of govern nent.
If the state department at Washington
does not decide favorably on the applica-
ton the revolutionary government, it Is
announced will make the same request of
Great Britain The reason that the United
States is applied to first is that the rebels
would like to maintain the good relations
with this country which now exist be-
tween Washington and the Castro govern
ment. and also because the United States
is the most interested from q commercial
point of view.
