REED AND CARLISLE.
A Verbal Duel In the House Between
the Parliamentary Masters.


Following is an interesting story OF
isle as Senator La Toilette reports It
In his autobiography in the American
Magazine:
"Reed was one OF the ablest men in
either house of congress. Some Of his
passages with Carlisle when Carlisle
was speaker were among the best ex-
amples of close forensic reasoning
have ever heard. Both were as fine
parliamentary athletes as were ever
to be found. l remember vividly a
characteristic passage between them.
It was near the end of the session and

Carlisle, standing there in the
speakers place, answered, / shall be

"Reed retorted. The speaker is wrong
for this reason'-and put it in nut

"'Ah, but the gentleman from Maine
is in error because'-and Carlisle stated
his contention without a superfluous
word.
Yes answered Reed. but Mr..
Speaker and for ten or fifteen min

speaker said:

Gold Seeker Finds Riches.

Fourteen years ago Patrick Tierney,
then clerk in a Somerville store, sud-
denly disappeared. At the time of his
disappearance he lived with his aged
parents at Raritan. He left his home
one morning to go to his place of en-
ployment and that was the last his par
ents ever saw ofhim. Tierney's parents,
after their sons disappearance, recalled
the fact that he had talked good deal
during his youthful career OF going to
Alaska. Five years after his disappear
ance his father, Michael Tierney,
received a letter from him from Cape
Nome, Alaska. After that there was a
long silence, although the father tried
in vain to get in communication with
his son.
On Friday night richly dressed
man, carrying two heavy suit cases,
alighted from passenger train at the
Raritan station. He walked briskly to
the old Tierney homestead, where he
knocked at the door and asked for Mr.
and Mrs. Michael Tierney. The
strange woman told him that Michael
Tierney had died about five years ago
and his wife about a year or two later
and all their children had moved away
from the town.
The man staggered back and then
made it known that he was Patrick
Tierney. He later looked up a number
of his old friends to whom he confessed
that he was heart-broken to find his
parents gone. He had returned to
make good the promise of his youth
and had brought with him sufficient
quantity Of wealth to make them com
Portable. Tierney stated that after
many hardships he drifted from Alaska
to Peru, where he struck it rich in the
Andes Mountains

FORGED SIGNATURES.
Little Things That Expose the Fraud

Little Things That Expose tho Fraud
to Handwriting Experts.
Forgery has a great attraction to
certain element of the criminal world.
Some are SO skillful In this line of
work as to get past the most eagle
eyed bank teller, but always when the
microscope is brought into play 1t is
possible to detect the fraud, or, II not
the microscope, then more modern
testing appliances are used.
Here Is secret divulged by a man
who has made study of handwriting:
No person ever yet wrote his name
twice alike. In some small or big de-
tail one signature always differs from
another. Therefore when the same
does in the course of business events.
when the forger gets after a little
easy coin--there must be a matter of

ways noticeable to the practiced eye a
cramping movement or radical de-
parture from the way in which the
name should be written. Such q small
thing as the particular position of the
dot above the a." for instance, will
reveal forgery or the crossing of the
ST. or the shading Of up or down
strokes. A man will overlook the fact
that the name he is writing when
written by its owner always leaves
the straight line at certain letter
and returns on another certain letter.
Some business men place after their
signatures on checks a period, some a
comma. some n rough star, others a
short or long dash. making the genu-
ineness OF the signature depend more
upon this slight characteristic than the
