RECOVERING STOLEN MONEY

Keep For Him.
Bridgeport. Conn. Oct Fl. - The
chances that the police will recover
nearly The whole of the 100000 stolen
from the Adams Express company in
Pittsburg by Edward @. Cunliffe, who
was arrested here and taken to Pitts
burg, seem bright. Last night $1,000
was found in trunk belonging to a
butler in a prominent family at Black
Rock, but the butler and the family
by whom he Is employed are Ignorant
of the fact that the sum found was
within the house. In round numbers
$4,000 has been found within the
past "a hours. After figuring on
about $500 as the amount which Cum
life has spent or which was found on
him when arrested, there is left sum
Of $1O,500 yet to be accounted for.
The discovery OF the money in the
Black Rock home was brought about
by keeping a close watch on one
of Cunliffe's chance acQuaintances,
George Eisenman, who was with Cum
life when he was arrested. Cunliffe
had a package with him, and as the
men were about to leave each other
Cunliife said that he wanted Eisenman
to take care of the package. as it was
laundry, which he wanted to keep in a
safe place. When the bundle was
opened the big sum Of money was

Any man of lively fancy, who
knows enough of human nature to
realize its abiding needs, can enumer-
ate future discoveries by the dozen
with a fair chance that perhaps one
in thousand may be realized within
century, says the London Spectator.
To the same class belong the curious
anticipation by native tribes, which
generally take the form of news
known, when by no conceivable
means could information have reached
them by ordinary channels. The pres.
ent writer believes that this phenom.
enon, which some have explained by
telegraphy. is simply a form of an.
ticipation. The native Is an inveter-
ate guesser and since his tongue
never ceases and his invention is
active, he makes enough attempts to
be fairly certain OF stumbling now
and then. on the truth.
