One hundred and twenty thousand feet

OLD ANDERsoNvlLLE PRISON.
Famous Pen Is Now One of the Beauty
Spots of the South.

The name Andersonville has become
historic because of the famous prison
where from $4,000 to $4,000 Federal
soldiers, who had been captured by
the Confederate army, were confined
from 1864 to 1865.
The story of Andersonville has be-
come a familiar one in every house
hold, writes Meta G. Hall in Will
Transport Pa.) Grit. The part which
the prisoners at Andersonville played
In demonstrating the superior patriot
ism of the American soldier is I'M
rivaled. There is nothing In the world s
history that surpasses 1t. I'm the
midst of suffering indescribable they
refused the comfort and safety tempt
ingly proffered them by the enemy
and remained true to their colors even
unto the death" Time, the great heal
er, is rapidly oblterating the harsh
ness and bitterness connected with 1t.
Future generations will learn from its
softened and mellowed memories the
great lessons of patriotism.
At the close Of the war In 1865 there
was but one house at the railroad sta
ton known as Andersonville and to-
day there is but little more. The at
traction for the great crowds often
numbering twenty to thirty thousand,
that make their annual pilgrimage to
this their mecca, Is not that little sta
ton on the Central of Georgia rail-
way, nor the red hills Of Georgia and
fragrant piney woods, although they
furnish a pleasing landscape, but the
national cemetery and the prison pen
or stockade of war times, the latter
remaining almost the same as when
abandoned by the soldiery.
The National cemetery was estab-
iished In 1865 by Captain James NJ.
Moore, who on the morning of July
20, 1865, under orders of the United
States government, began the work of
identifying the graves. painting and

TRAIN DISPATCHER AND ANGEL.

III health alone terminated the forty
year usefulness of Miss Rebecca Brac-
ken, 60, a Michigan Central train dis
patcher, perhaps the only woman In
the world who occupied such trying
and responsible position. And her
death, which occurred recently, has
removed from Niles, Mich, the Juno
ton of four divisions, q woman who
was admired for her ability and re-
spected as an "angel Of the railroad
men," Her success was due to her
eternal vigilance, and her popularity
to tact and the warm-hearted interest
she displayed in the welfare of every
employe with whom she came into
contact. 1t was no wonder, then, that
when few months ago she was re-
tired on pension, the conductors and
officials gave her q diamond ring and
other testimonials of their regard.
ut was during the war when I
started railroad work." said Miss.
Bracken, in discussing it some months
before her demise. II think It must
have been in 1863. A girl friend came
to our house to get me to accompany
her in a walk to the depot. A soldier
train was going through Niles that
day and the girl had a soldier friend
upon that train. We were waiting IN

site selected by the Confederates, and
no prettier spot could have been cho-
sen, about GOO yards west of north Of
the stockade.
So closely had the uncoflned and
emaciated remains been buried that
each grave occupied but little over IL
inches In width, consequently, the
small tablets, provided by the govern
ment, measuring 10 inches in width,
nearly touched each other. Today
those tablets are replaced by neat mar
BILE headstOnes. On these small mar
BILE slabs is chiseled the name, rank.
regiment, company and date OF death.
OF that number there were 12,461 and
on 451 other and shorter slabs is only
the word-"Unknown." These are
scattered through the long rows of
headstones and are easily detected by
their height and tell pathetic story.

there.

BURGLARY AS a FINE ART.
No Longer Practiced - Safe Blowers
Now Mere Tramps.

No Longer Practiced - Safe Blowers
Now Mere Tramps.
Not many years ago the bank bur
glar was looked up to by other GRIM
inals with something like reverence,
says the Kansas City Star. He was
regarded, in fact, as the true aristo-
crat of crime, and was pointed at with
furtlve admiration upon the streets
when at liberty and in penal institu-
lions when occasionally deprived of
his freedom. Nowadays almost every
burglary that occurs In the United
States is performed by common tramps
or hoboes.
This situation is what the racing
men would describe as startling re-
versal Of form, and 1t shows to what
depth a once exalted profession NAV
fall when 1t passes out of the hands of
those associated with its highest
flights. Indeed, as compared with the
exploits Of the old-timers, or tool
men, as they are technically known.
the burglaries of recent days-or
nights-might be described as petit
larceny, for 1t is a rare occurrence that
more than $4,000 or $4,000 has been
involved in felonious expeditions dur
ing the last dozen years.
In former times, when the bands or
ganized by 1.-The big fellows" went
after the contents of a banking institu-
ton they took pains beforehand to
know that large amounts of money
and securities were housed In the
vaults they had marked for violation.
and they rarely came away without
bringing with Them booty worthy of
their enterprise. The records Of thefts
by "yeggmen," the bank vault and safe
burglars of to-day, show that they have
taken desperate chances Of being shot
or imprisoned for long terms to blow
open safes containing amounts as
small as $3.50.
Few of the old-time burglars are
ever seen nowadays. Some are dead,
many have retired to quiet and I'M
offending occupations, and here and
there-but not often-is one who can't
resist the habit of breaking into the
penitentiary. Such, for instance, was
the case of Dunlap, of the once cele-
brated burglar partnership OF Scott
and Dunlap, who participated in the
Northampton bank burglary. Scott
died in prison, and a wealthy New
York woman spent her time and money
in a persistent effort to secure Dun.
laps release, In which pursuit she I'll.
timately succeeded.
1t was thought that the convict
given a chance TO earn a respectable
living. might take advantage of 1t. and
1t seemed for a little time that he had
determined TO do so. But a number
of burglaries In Western cities not far
from Chicago were executed with such
skill that they were obviously the
work of hlgh-class criminal, and sus
picion soon centered upon Dunlap. He
is now completing a term In the Joliet
penitentiary.

ness or error on the part OF Miss

CHAPTER xxx

We left the station, invaded a vehicle.
and arrived In twenty minutes before a
shabby looking shanty, where the court
was held.
There was a crowd. The affair had
got abroad. 1t was known that n swind-
Ter had come In box In a Grand Trans
asiatic van free, gratis, and for nothing
from Titiis to Pekin. Every one wished
to see him; every one wanted to recog-
nize the features of this genius-it was
not yet known that he was hero.
There he is, our brave companion. be-
tween two rascally looking policemen
yellow as ounces. These fellows arc
ready to walk him off to prison at the
judges orders, and to give him few
dozen strokes on the soles of his feet if
he is condemned to that punishment.
Kinko Is thoroughly disheartened
which astonishes me on the part of one
know TO be so energetic. But as soon
as he sees us his face betrays a raw of
hope.
Our young advocate was really M
thetic and amusing. He interested the
judge, he excited the audience with the
story of the Journey, he told them all
about 1t, and finally he offered to pay the
company what WAS due to them. I'm
fortunately, the judge could not consent
There had been material damages. moral
damages.
Thereupon Pan Chao became animated
and, although we understood nothing ne
said. we guessed that he was speaking
or the courage of KinkO, of the sacrifice
he had made for the safety of the tray-
elers, and finally, as supreme argument.
he pleaded that his client had saved the
imperial treasure.
Arguments were Of no avail with this
pitiless magistrate who had not acouit-
ted ten prisoners In his life. He spared
the delinquent the bastinado; but gave
him six months In prison, and condemn
ed him In damages against the Grand
Iransasiatic Company. And then. at n
sign from this condemning machine, poor
hinko was taken away.
Let not my readers pity Kinko's fate.
L may as well say at once that every
thing was arranged satisfactorily. Next
morning Kinko made triumphal entry
into the house in the Avenue Cha-Coua.
where we were assembled while Madame
Caterna was showering her maternal con-
solutions on the unhappy Zinca Klork.
The newspapers had got wind of the
affair. The Chi Bao. of Pekin. and the
Chinese Times, of Tien-tsin, had demand
ed mercy for the young Roumaaian.
These cries for mercy had reached the
feet of the Son of Heaven-the very spot
where the imperial ears are placed. Be
sides, Fan Chao had sent to his majesty
petition relating the incidents of the
Journey. aud insisting on the point that
