PEPPERELL, Mass, Dec. -Four
teen thousand dollars in cash was Sc
cured by burglars, who carly today
blew open the vault of the First Ma
tional Bank here. Three men We're in
the party, and although they were seen
escaping in an automobile all trace of
them was soon lost II the authorities
were unable to ascertain in which di-
rection they departed. 1t is believed,
however, that the burglars went from
here to Groton.
The bank vault was blown open about
2 o'clock, at which time the last Of
three explosions was heard by Ernest
Tarbell, who was sleeping next door.
The explosion was followed by a crash
and rattle, as the vault door fell away
and interior glass fittings We're broken.
Tarbell armed himself with a revolver
and started to investigate, only to find
the door of his own house barred from
the outside. He succeeded in breaking
open his door and Immediately started
for the bank. Tarbell reached the bank
just as the robbers were leaving in an
automobile. Tarbell fired several shots
at the speeding car in which the gurg-
lars were fleeing.
Cashier Henry T. Tarbell later found
a quantity of bills and silver scattered
about the vault, showing the hurry
with which the burglars worked. The
large quantity of gold stored in one of
the inner recesses OF the safe was in
tact, save for a single $40 coin.
Before beginning their work on the
bank vault the burglars took the pre-
caution of barring the street doors of
AN the buildings in the vicinity of the
bank.

STONEWALL JALKSON.

RetweenS and g O'Clock on the even
ing of May 2, 1868, General Stonewall
Jackson was MORALLY wounded by his
own men. He died May 10, in a house
near the battlefield of Charlottesville.
By a brilliant attack in the afternoon
General Jackson had crowded back the
right wing of the Federal forces, and
when dark fell the lines were not far
apart. In with a number of
his staff he rode forward between the
lines to reconnoiter. On returning the
Confederate officers We're mistaken for
the enemy and soldiers of Lanes brl-
gade fired a volley.
General Jackson was wounded three
times, two bullets passing through his
left arm and one through the palm of
his right hand. Little Scout his
famous horse, for the first time showed
fright and ran a short distance down
the road. returning in a few moments
to the party. General Jackson was then
assisted to the ground while an orderly
rode toward the Confederate lines call
ing on the men to cease firing. The
voIley, however, had led the Federals
to believe that a night attack was un-
der way and a terrific artillery fire
swept the road where General jackson
lay. Members of his staff helped him
to walk to one side where the danger
was less and in a few moments he was
placed on a litter to be carried to the
rear. The general was not suffering
greatly until one of his litter bearers
was shot, letting the litter fall to the
ground. General jackson fell on his
injured arm and for the first time
groaned.
On the way through the lines strict
orders were given that the fact that
General Jackson was shot should not
be made known, but the report spread
like wiIdfre. AT the field hospital he
was given chloroform and his left arm
a~mputated, just below the shoulder.
Later, at General Lees order, he was
removed to a house further distant
from the scene ofbattle. Here he show
ed excellent Improvement until at
tackled by pneumonia, from the eff
fects of which he died May 10, his last
words being "Let us cross over the
river and rest under the shade of the
trees"

PRESIDENTIAL COURTESY.

If any President of modern times
that John Adams exhibited when JET
ferson became President he would be
denounced by every reputable news
paper and Intelligent citizen of the
land. It was then, as it is now, the
accepted duty of the retiring President
to receive the incoming President at
the White House and accompany him
to the Inauguration ceremonies;b but the
last official act OF Adams as President
was the nomination of a number Of
the night before the inauguration of
Jefferson, and during the night he and
his family withdrew from the White
House, leaving none but the servants
to receive the incoming President.
1t was President Polk who first had
the courage to disregard the political
passions of the es b. inviting Henry
Clay, WHO had been lis competitor, to
line with him and Mrs Polk in the
White House. It was near the close of
the Polk administration, during which
Clay had been a senator most of the
time, and I we'll remember how itshock-
ed the democratic sentiment of the
time when it was announced that Clay
had dined with President Polk. not on
a state occasion, but had been well
coined at the family dinner as a friend.
Clay was the soul of chivalry, and Polk
was a man of unblemished character
and high attainments, and his example
of courtesy to Clay has never since
been broken.
When Cleveland was defeated by
Harrison in 1888, he wrote a very kind
letter to his successful competitor, in
viting him to give his views as to all
the details of the Inauguration, and to
be the guest OF the White House as
long before the Inauguration as he
could find convenient. When, in turn,
Cleveland defeated Harrison, the same
courtesy was exhibited, and no retir-
ing President could today exhibit any
of discourtesy to his successor
without largely forteiting public re-
spect.
