WINNING A COAT.

The Clever Scheme That Was Worked
by a French Thief.
A Frenchman had been attending the
Coincide Franchise, and after the per-
formance be took a gloomy byway In
order to make a short cut to the Bou-
levard Montmartre. He noticed AZ ~
hastened through the dark a slight tug
on his coattail, but to this he paid no
attentioa. when he reached the bright
boulevard, however, he found, to bis
great modification, that n tail Of his
ella whammer coat had been cut 81.
He notified . Journalist of his loss. and
the next morning an account Of the
odd. theftappeared In the Figaro. That
afternoon q man In a blue uniform

from the bureau Of police. We have
captured a suspicious character who
had In his pocket a piece Of fine black
cloth. Let me have your mutilated
coat, sir. II the piece fits 1t, we will
know that We have apprehended the
man who robbed you"
The other surrendered his coat, and

be lgitated in Wyoming also, especi-
ally along the lines of the new rail-
roads, which are now transporting
hundreds of people each season into
the very heart OF the mountains. When
tourists were few and far between, the
picking or wild flowers In unlimited
quantities made slight difference in
the beautiful display, but when the
number of armfuls Is multiplied In
definitely, the damage which must
con result is clearly to be seen. II
will be well. therefore, to practice re-
s%lraint from the beginning. that the
mountains about Centennial and be.
yond may continue to delight all who
see them. The Estes Park Improve
ment association has had $50 signs
printed and posted which have been
placed particularly In localities where
the columbines grow. These signs
read:
"You can help keep Estes Park a
beautiful wild garden. SPARE THE
FLOWERS.
"Thoughtless people are destroying
the flowers by pulling them up by the
roots or by picking too many OF them.
Neither the roots nor the leafy
stalks should be taken, and flowers, II
taken. should be cut and not pulled.

ARMFUL OF FLOWERS?"

Every nation hasstts own time stand
ard. but the United States has four.
These time sections, as they are called.
were introduced in the year 1883,
chiefly for the benefit OF the railroads.
and are known as the eastern. central,
mountain and Pacific. The eastern
section extends from the Atlantic coast
to an irregular line drawn from De-
trolt to Charleston, 8. c.; the central
includes all between this line and an
other extending from Bismarck. N. D.,
to the mouth of the Rio Grande river:
the mountain extends from here to the
western boundary Of Montana, Idaho.
Utah and Arizona, and the Pacific In
cludes all the remainder Of the coun-
try to the Pacific coast
The difference In time between ad-
Joining sections is one hour, SO thai

It is IL o'clock at Chicago. 10 O'Clock at
Denver and 0 o'clock at San Francisco.
The true local time of any place Is
slower or faster than the standard
time, according as the place is west
or east Of the time meridian. Thus the
local time at Boston Is sixteen minutes
faster than eastern standard time.

thority to provide for the reduction Of
the debt Of the county. no matter what
other expenses had 10 be provided for.
The$f5. 600 reduction annually is a cred,
