Timely Arrival Of Detective and Friends
FrightenS Brute Away.
ALARM IS GIVEN BY A BOY FRIEND
AssaiIant EntIced Two Children Away
by Promise of . Pony and Candy,
but one Becomes FEishtened
and Turns Back. .-

Anna Saltzman, the 10-year-old daughter
of Mr.. and Mrs. Harris SaltEman, 1907
Avenue A, was badly mistreated by a sup
posed tramp last evening. The brute was
evidently frightened from accomplishing his
intended purpose and escaped into the
woods at Mynster springs.
Anna Saltzrnan and Mabel Humbert the
5-year-old daughter Of Mr.. and Mrs. J. W.
Humbert, who live across the street from
the saltzman family, were swinging in the
yard at the Humbert home when ap-
preached By the fellow He told the chill
dren that he had three little boys and a
girl about their age and said that II they
would come with him to his house he would
give them a nice pony and a dollar for
candy The promise of pony proved too
tempting and the children went with the
fellow, who started north on Eleventh
street along the Northwestern tracks with
them.
when they had gone some distance the
Humbert child became frightened and COM
menced to cry and told her companion she
wanted to go back to her mama. The fell
low offered her Is cents to go along with
him and the Saltzman girl. but the little
one refused and the fellow then told her
to go home, and she started back
According TO the story told by little Anna
Saltzman, the man took her about a mile
down the road and into a cornheld. The
child became frightened before they reached
the cornheld and began to cry, when the
fellow placed his hand over her mouth and
threatened to beat her II she made any
outcry. The little girl said the fellow had
a revolver which he showed her and this
so frightened her she did not dare TO cry
out. The brute had removed part of the
childs underolothlng. but seeing several
people coming down the road and suspect
ing that the alarm had been given, desisted
from further attacking his intended victim
Giving the child three pennies, he assisted
In replacing her clothing and then started
on the run for the timber in the direction
OF MynsteT springs. S..
The brute made his escape none too soor
as the childs mother with several OF the
7 heighbors and Detective George Wilson
reached the corn field Just as the littlt
girl made her way onto the road. Tht
child was so terribly frightened that 4

BOY Gives Alarm.

The first alarm was given by Sidney
Cherniss, small lad aud acquaintance OF
the two children. He had seen the tramp
leading them down the road by the hand
and despite his youth surmised that some-
thing was wrong. The boy happened to
see Detective Wilson near the railroad
tracks and in his childish waE told the
officer about the two little girls being led
away by a rough looking man Oficer
Wilson at once hastened to the Saltzman
home which Il wIthIn-a short dst7n"a -
the railroad tracks. 1t was while talking
to Mrs. Saltzman that the littie tIu.n1,. .
girl came back and told. of Anna going
away with the man. 90 f1r a.-
The fellow, who Is supposed to be a
tramp, was described by the Saltzman
girl as being thickset with about a week &
growth Of beard. wearing a blue flannel
shirt and without coat or vest AS far as
she could tell he was about IS years of
age. .
The police at once sent word to Cres-
cent City and other towns along the North
western and TO neighboring farmers with
the hope of heading the brute on. Owing
to the darkness II was thought there
would be little chance of capturing the
fellow last night II he kept, to the timber
The attack on the child aroused considera-
Bile excitement in the neiKhborhood and
among the railroad men and there was q
| good deal of talk of stringinE the brute

When trouble came to some good
 friend,

One on Bragg-Some years ago iu Alabama, one of the most talented lawyers practicing in the south was the late Colonel Bragg, but he had a peppery temper.
 Not only did Colonel Bragg's dis position involve him from time to time in serious differences with his colleagues, but it also led him to break off amicable relations with a Judge Robinson, a most estinable jur- ist, who, while presiding over a suit, in which Bragg was interested, had by his decision, incurred the resentment of the advocate. So, for a long time, the colonel declined even to speak to the judge, save when it was absolute ly necessary in the course of business.
 Finally, however, his better nature getting the upper hand, Colonel Bragg determined to apologize to Judge Rob- inson and endeavor to affect a renew al of their former comparatively pleas ant relations. Meeting the judge one afternoon on the steps of the state house, he impulsively thrust out his hand and said:
 See here, Judge, let's be friends again. This thing has gone on long enough"
 "Why-er, Bragg" asked the Judge, in the meekest and mildest way inn aginable, What's the matter?"
 Simply this, judge" continued the fiery Bragg, q admire you so inn mensely that I cannot for my life be content to remain on bad terms any longer, I felt that I must speak to you"
 "Why-er, Bragg" replied the judge in the thinnest of voices, a well feign- ed look Of astonishment on his face, "why-er, Bragg, havn't you been speaking to me-"

A TALE OF THE SEA.

''Ten you a tale O the sea? I will; Come gather round" said Uncle Bill Then Jacky and Jenny climbed one on
 each knee To hear all this marvellous tale of the
 sea. "'Twas when was out on the Nency A-roamin' around on the ocean blue That happened this incident strange
 and true. The Nancy was maxim for land one When suddenly there was the deuce Where all O the trip had been blithe
 an gay. we stuck on the slope of a mighty Though many a stagger the Nancy
 gave It seemed we were bound for a watery
 grave. The wind. don't you see. was from | dead ahead; The current, as doubtless you may
 have read. Was runnin' the other way instead. "The Nancy would climb to about the
 top, Then seem to give up, and would slow
 ly drop; She slid to the bottom of that there Or pillow, or wave-and she'd then
 stand still Till the current would carry her up.
 an then. By ginger, she'd simply slide down
 again! 'So back'ards an forards she slid five

 speaks; It seemed like the ocean was bleak an For nobody else but ourselves was
 there: We slid an we clumb, an we clumb

 did! 'The captain he wept, an the second

BRUTALITY OF CHECKERS.

There is a new rerormer ia our midst-or, to speak more accurately, on our outskirts. Rochester is a cen ter of commerce, industry, culture. and, incidentally, checkers. We have not only captains of industry and lead CTS in the great cause Of education, but doughty warriors whose field is the board of sixty-four squares and whose implements of battle are inuo- cent looking but deadly disc-shaped missiles.
 The merciless strenuosity of check CTS has long been a cause of secret uneasiness among communications but. for some reason, no one has had the courage to speak out concerning its brutal features. Now a timely note of alarm is sounded over in Spring field, Mass, by MT. Eli Skiffers, who, emboldened by the successful attacks recently made on the barbarisms of football, and by the later agitation against the scarcely less rough fea- lures of basket ball permits himself to become aroused over the tragedies of checkers. Mr. Skiffers, writing to the Springfield Union, waxes eloquent over his subject. He declares that checkers works more sorrow and suf- fering than any other competitive game. He does not except even golf He portrays the mad passion of it's devotees and the wrecks Of domestic happiness for which they are respon- sible. A few young men may be killed on the gridron, but there are plenty left to fill their places, whereas the checker monster is unsuitable and it's victims are numbered by thousands. Furthermore, we nave no use for roy alty in this republic, and the mad chase for kings and crowns tends to undermine our free institutions These and other items in the bill of com plaint are elaborated at length and prepare the mind of the reader for scheme of reform advocated by MT. Skiffers. He would modify the glar- ingly vicious features of the game in the following manner, to-wit:
 l. Abolish the king row.
 2. Limit the jump to one in any give direction.
 8. Restrict the bets to one glass of hard cider on each game.
 4. Adopt a minimum age limit of 75 years for players.
 5. Prohibit discussion of the game outside of the cobbler's shop or gro cery store.
 G. Compel each player to produce d written permit from his wife.
 :. Restrict the playing to one even ing a week, and stop the game when curfew rings
 With these reforms MT. SSiffers be- lieves that all, or nearly all, of the brutality of checkers can be eliminat- ed. Perhaps so. And after waging a successful campaign along this line. Mir. Sl1iffers should turn his attention to quoits, mumblety peg, muggins and old-m maid. He, evidently. is the genius appointed to smooth over the rough places of life and lead the American people away from the pace that kills. Rochester Democrat Chronicle.

OF ELYslAN FIELDS.

Oh, some there are who want a lot before they are amused. But from that category l must beg to be excused. It ! is the little things of life that counter balance care and strife. Oh, some there are who like to speed an auto every minute. Well, as for me, I must confess l can see nothing in it. But just before the time comes round fos me to go to bed I love to sit and take my ease and gently rub my head.
 Oh, there are those who like to place bet upon the horses. They study form and weights and speed and fast and muddy courses. But here's a thing that gives to me a greater joy pro- found; l love to watch machinery when it is going round. Oh, some there are with martial souls, who dwell on deeds of glory and who aspire with eyes ahre to honor when it's gory. No joy in this for me, but I can pleasure find instead whene'er I hear it raining on the tin roof overhead.
 Oh. some there are who find their joy in reading ancient histOry-who peer behind the veil of time and seek to solve the mystery. A deeper joy than this I know. A deeper I will tell. I'd rather find a pin and stick it in my coat lapel.
 Oh, there are some who cannot rest until they think they're wealthy. They try to corner all the dust-a task thac is unhealthy. To me it seems a silly thing to look for pleasure there, when can find it at my ease whene'er l part my hair.
 Oh, some there are who'll climb cliff if there is danger in it. They've naught but scorH for Matterhorn be- cause so many do it. The Himalyas tempt me not. Nor does the Matter horn. I'd rather have lot of butter when I'm eatino corn.
 Oh, there are some who look for sports, for pleasure that's alluring. Who run and jump and rut the shot and other feats enduring. Of colrse they think it fun, but I can find no joy in these. But oh, what joy it is to have my key-ring full of keys.
 oh, some seek pleasure in a boat, yawl or catboat tiny. While overhead the tempest roars and underneath the briny. I think it's better fun by far than cIinging to a mast to make point to keep my watch just 15 minutes fast.
 And some who set the boxers on to fight like dogs and parrot, find inter est in feints and leads and swings that draw the claret. Some like this bang ing sort of life-this restive, nervous dash. I'd rather far sit hour by hour and fond!e my mustache.
 Some seek the strains of Wagner, Brahms. of Mendelssohn and sundry. They rave about the flower girls charms and shudder deep at Kundry For all I care they all can sing till every face is black. But how l love to pull my fingers out until they crack.
 Oh. there are some who claim they find excitement lies in stunning. Some call 1t sociological. while others call 1t bummingI do not know. never go in- 10 the world beneath. I'd rather sit and take my pen and click it on my teeth.
 And some there are who pleasure seek in social life disporting; who try to climb up all the time and do finan- cfaI .courting The moneyed courtng isn't real. The honeyed kind for me- Fair Lethe winds in lotus fields when Jennie's on my knee.

Here is a good story of Andrew KirkaIdy, the well known golfer. Lord Dudley learned most of the game from Andrew, and a few years since he had gathering of all the best profession al players at his private residence. An entertaining incident happened in con- nection with this competition. There was in the morning a light sprinkling of snow on the ground, and putting was accordingly very difficult, as the ball in it's travel across the green, gathered STOW as it went. "Andra" was competing, and his brother pro fessionals noted with dismay that the ball retained it's original shape, gath cred no snow, and found the tin with a facility which they were powerless to emulate The ingenious and farsee- ing Scot, before starting out, had an- ointed his caddie's head Iiberally with oil, and at every tee he made the boy give the ball a rub through his hair. thus making the snow powerless to stick to it.-Tid-bits

Baltimore, which received in the Johns Hopkins University and the Johns Hopkins hospital and in othar forms $1O,O00, ,OOO from it's famous phil anthropist, is to erect a memorial to his honor The institutions named are his greatest memorial, but the city, with characteristic Southern generos- ity, feels that it must do something to show it's appreciation of one whose citizenship and services so greatly benefited it. The form the memorial will take has not yet been decided, ana probably will not be until the entire sum needed for the purpose is raised. One suggestion is that a foundation should be erected in the heart of the business section of the city, crowned by a statue of the philanthrOpist, and with the figures of Charity and Educa- ton on either side.
