BANK CASHIER CHEATED
CROOK AT HIS OWN GAME

tective who was taking the craftsman
up to Sing Sing. At one of the stations
a bit of a ride out of New York l noticed
the cracksman's face suddenly darken
with wrath, and l asked him what was
up. He, pointed out sleek-looking man
who was sitting in a dogcart alongside
the station, and he cursed that man in
a blood-curdling way for two minutes be-
fore he was able to tell the story as I've
told it. The man in the dogcart was the
cashier who'd been crafty enough to put
it over one of the most accomplished all
around crooks in the western hemisphere.
The failure of the bank hadn't hurt the
cashier at all in the estimation of his
townsmen. The bank was robbed by
cracksmen,' you see, so how could the
cashier help the banks failure.
but these things all work out in
time. The emaciated palsied old vag I
saw in jefferson Market Court in New
York a few weeks ago was that bank
cashier, now reaping what he sowed.

superintendent e. c. brennan of the vol
unteer life saving corps of Boston was
talking Of a freaklsh invention for life
saving.
THE man who tried to save life with that
thing would have a pleasant prospect before
him. Every minute or two a cord would be
bound to snap, or a pulley would be bound
to break. The poor life saver would have
as unpleasant an experience ahead of him
as a friend Of mine had last spring on a
trout fishing trip.
My friend went trout fishing in Pike
county. He got board at SO a day at a
small wooden farmhouse near good
stream.
Arriving late at night his first meal at
this farmhouse was breakfast, and when
my friend came down stairs the next morn
ing breakfast was spread on the kitchen
table.
1T was a splendid April morning. The
sun had just risen behind the mountain
tops. The dew sparkled on the grass
Birds sang. The air was sharp and sweet.
my friend was tremendously hungry, but
he could not help smiling when he saw
six boiled eggs ranged in a row beside his
plate. ...., .rs-.r
Come, come, madam, he said to the
farmers wife, I admit I've a good appe-
lite, but you really shouldn't have boiled
all those eggs. Two would have been
enough.

Cat and Dog Time.

William Weinbruner Of East St. Louis and
his wife have a record of eight moves and
FIVE serious quarrels before their last
separation, which is said to be the final
one All the Guarrels and moves were
made within period of six months.
They had been married and living in their
own fiat two weeks when the first quarrel
occurred and the young bride went back
to her mas house. Two weeks later they
made 1t up and went to board with a
stranger They were awfully happy for a
fortnight. when they fused again and Mrs.
Weinbruner made another trip to her
mother. Pr
1t was like playing a game Of tag. They
lived, after the next reconciliation, for a
week or two with his sister and then the
inevitable quarrel came and she made an
other little journey to mas and brought
suit for a divorce. They made 1t up again.
however and then they dwelt for three
days with his mother before the next break
came, and after that they lived while
with her mother-and then they quarreled
again
After the next peacemaking they set up
housekeeping in another fiat, but trouble
arose and she had William arrested and
locked up in the East ST. Louis jail
The relatives thought It was a hopeless
case by this time, and while the husband
was in prison and the wife was at her
mothers, her folks and his folks came to
the desolate little fiat and stripped II,

of the pond.
The boy stood gravely watching his de-
lighted little partner slipping, sliding, out
-out-and then-suddenly a crash, a little
wild, piercing scream. and he was terror
stricken to behold the figure and the little
blond head of Josephine disappear in a dark
hole over the channel.
With only a single thought-that Of saw

hole and caught the shoulders OF the little
girl as she rose terrified with fear 10 the
surface.
With one knee resting in the icy water
that flowed from the hole across the sur

left arm OF Josephine and screamed nj the
top OF his lungs:

The little girl screamed. too, but owing
10 her fright and the terror OF her position
only the boys voice was audible beyond the
edge OF the pond. Between his cries he
eomforted the little auburn-haired maid
with the words:

ana we'll both be drowned" she sobbed.
The youngster looked down at the water
that had already formed little lake about
his knees. showing that the thin crust was
bending slowly downward.
Suddenly, with a rare presence OF mind
he bethouEht himself Of the stick which
he had brought TO the pond, and which he
still held In his hand.
Josie" he cried, "can you hold onto
this?" ana he thrust one end OF the stick
toward her.
"oh, I can't I can't" she screamed
"You mustn't let go or I'll be drowned
Then Clarence fiung the stick across the le'

full significance, and she turned again and
ran down to the pond. Now, without
thought Of danger, she rushed Immediately
out upon the ice to the spot where the two
children were still screaming.
Can you hold tight to Josie?" she
asked, clutching the boy by the foot.
''I got her, mamma Pull me and she'll
come, too" he answered bravely enough.
Thus the mother drew the pair away
from the danger, the little girl being pulled
safely out OF the water by the boy.

drenched and fainting little niece in her
arms, and with the youngster, Just turned
