prison is no: such a bad experience, and
is often productive OF results.
A wealthy man, who was arrested on
charge OF making free with government
funds, was followed into prison by
Camo-ra agent, who gained the mans con-
fdence to such an extent that he con-
fessed that the charges against him were
true When the trial came off the prisoner
was somehow found innocent. and the
Camorra reaped a golden harvest from the
guilty man for the safekeeping OF his Sc

frightful explosion occurred on
Mississippi river steamboat involving the
loss Of many lives and the injury of scores
of passengers. Among those who escaped
were Colonel Gould, a Kentucky banker,
and his wife. AS a result of her injuries
iand nervous prostration the coloneIs wife
tgave premature birth to a child and that
died. This nearly destroyed her mind. Her
idoctor told the colonel that the only hope
dor her was in the adoption of an infant
Unfortunately one was found unframed

Having been killed in the accident
Mrs. Gould and the colonel loved
and reared the child as though she
were really their own. When she became
old enough. two young men sought her
hand and heart. One was the confidential
clerk Of Mr., Gould and the other was
young southerner. She preferred the latter.
The colonel told him frankly that he was
willing Edith should marry him, but said
, she was the daughter Of a woman whose
! identity was unknown. This did not deter
the lover Meanwhile the spurned love of
the clerk made him a villain and he re-
sorted to trickery, bribery, lying, forgery
and other desperate methods to accomplish
that purpose-his marriage to Edith He
used an escaped convict to aid him in his
villainous designs. 1t happened that the
convict was really the father OF the girl,
but neither he the villain, Edith nor any
one else concerned knew it at the time the
plot was in progress. But that fact was
