Too Large For Him.

One of the incidents connected with
the incarceration of two girls in the
county Jail has its ludicrous side. A
man around town who is credited
with having had eight wives already,
n who is said to be casting his eyes
around for a ninth, happened to hear
of the, plight of these unfortunate
damselS, and went with all haste to
their rescue. Having decided whicA
one he would honor With his lame, he
asked her in a buSiness-like way if h
would accept him should he gain her
release. She very frankly told him b
preferred the jail to a home with him.
but he urged that she would have to so
with him should he pay her fine. In
telling some one about it. she eX-
claimed: THANK goodness, it was too
large for him to pay!' This is the
girl who from the first declared her
intention of going to the home, and in
spite OF all entreaties and persuasion
to the contrary. h never wavared i'll
her determination. A number Of the
Humane Society members expressed
the belief that this girl has the maxi
ing of u fine woman in her, and that
she will one day be a credit to those
Who have befriended her.

erafweeks ago Jim Nusent, manager
OF The Great Train Robbery" found
him in a penniless condition and gave
him a job.
Before long Kessinger jumped a
board bill and was later caught and
jailed. Nugent payed the bill and
costs and took him along again. Kes-
singer was getting a good salary and
was the only man who slept in The
Train Robbery tent.
It was thought that he would guard
the property, but he seems to be q
crook" Some time last night he
picked the locks of the trunks and
property boxes of Nugent and stole
pistols and watches to the value Of
about $150. The robbery was not dis
covered until this. morning. when the
.~perpetrator had fled.

that he has gone, and there is a good

and seems to be in hard luck. His
