Ragged the Bandits.

When Macmillan was emperor of
Mexico the country was overrun with
train robbers. They marched about in
large bands, tore up the tracks and
robbed everybody. One day the train
from Vera Cruz to the City of Mexico
was bounding gayly along, the five
coaches filed with hidalgoes, poems,
market women and farmers. Suddenly
it came to a standstill. The train
guard cried out, "Banditte" Sure
enough, on either side of the road the
ragged but desperate rufians were
lined up. Suddenly hidalgoes, poems,
market women and farmers arose.
There were binding fash and deaf
ening volley from both sides Of the
car, and 100 of the bandits fell dead,
while the 800 zouaves, disguised in the
costumes of the country, turned out of
the cars, pursued the flying robbers
and killed every one.

Forecasting a Husband.

In Greece young woman who
wishes to know what sort of hus-
band she is going to have goes to one
of the gypsy fortune tellers. who are
regarded with much, reverence. The
fortune teller gives her a pie season
ed with aromatic herbs. This she eats
just before going to bed, having hung
around her neck bag with three flow
ers, one white, one red and one yellow.
The next morning she draws one Of
the flowers out Of the bag. If it be
white, she is to marry young man;
if red, one of middle age; if yellow, a
widower She relates what she has
dreamed in the night to the fortune
teller, who predicts whether her hus-
band is to be rich and the marriage
happy. If the predictions are not car
ried out to the letter, no fault is ascrib-
ed to the fortune teller This deviation
by the bag and different colored flowers
is equally adaptable to all countries
and has the merit of being cheap and
easy way of settling ones future, il

The Chaplain's
CleverneSS
BY c. B. Les0is
Copyright, 1904, by c. B. Lewis

One day at the Third National bank,
in the city of Cornopolis, stranger
walked through the presidents room
and past the bookkeeper's and took
from the pile of money stacked at the
paying teller's right hand four pack
ages Of $4,000 each. He was coolly
walking out again when stopped by the
president and a gun.
The man was known to the police as
"Slick Charlie" and to tell of all his
adventures would fill a book. 1t was
for his attempted theft of the $4,000
that he was sent to the Woonson peni-
tertiary for five years. The officer who
delivered him behind the doors of that
institution said to the warden:
"Here is man you want to keep an
eye on. Don't lose sight of him day
or night. He is bold and nervy ON the
one hand and slick and sly on the
other. Don't trust him for an hour
or he'll beat the game"
The warden was a new man at the
prison; but, having been sheriff of a
county, he thought he knew about all
sorts of criminals and replied that
No. $40, as "Slick Charlie was re-
corded, would have to get up early in
the morning to beat him.
If prison chaplain were to be ques-
toned about religion in prison he
would answer that scores Of prisoners
lived up to it and were earnest and de-
vout. If an experienced warden were
to be questioned, he would answer that
just when a prisoner began to "get
good he should be watched the closest.
The chaplain at Woonson was a good
man and one who had faith in him
self. He thought his advice and ap-
peals to burglars and murderers pro-
duced the desired effect. Among the
prisoners he was known as an easy
mark.
The new warden was wary of antag-
onizing the captain and a man not
well posted on the tricks Of criminals,
SO No. $40 found things easy for him
when he entered prison. When he had
had full opportunity to size up the
chaplain he began to "get good" He
was as earnest about this as he had
been in appropriating other peoples
goods. He became contrite and hum
BILE, and he wanted to be turned from
paths of wickedness. OF course the
chaplain did his best. When the po-
lice officials heard that "Slick Charlie
had been converted they notified the
warden in writing that he would be

Association is the vital spring Of
memory, and any one who analyses his
thought process may catch himself re-
calling a thing by a series of allied
things. Many people have tried to
systematic association and arrange a
scientific memory method.
A mathematician has discovered a
most interesting process for remember
ing dates. Suppose you have forgotten
the year of the Norman conquest. Take
the date of your birth and add to it
the number of the month when you
were born. Multiply the result by the
day of the month your father was
born. Square the result. Add six.
Now divide by the cube root of the
number of people in the United States.
forget the result. add 1,0e6 and you
have the required date.

Naval Academy Bars Smoking.

Any violation Of the regulation
against smoking by midshipmen at the
United States naval academy, in flu
ture, will be treated with the utmost
severity. The. navy department has
announced in an official communica-
ton to Captain Brownson, that mid
shipmen who violate this regulation
will be dismissed. There seems to
have been misunderstanding on the
part of midshipmen in regard to this
matter, many of them acting under
the assumption that dismissal would
only follow a repeated violation in one
year of the smoking regulation.
