Max Semalititz , a saloonuian of Pueblo , Colo. , came down from Denver , Tues day evening on No. 14 , and as per tele graphic instructions from Sheriff J. I/ . Beaman of Pueblo and the chief of police of Denver was promptly arrested by Night Policeman Fitzgerald. Sheriff Beaman arrived iu the city on 6 , Wed nesday night , and left on 3 , the same night , for Pueblo with his prisoner , who agreed to go without the usual requisition. It is charged that Semalitilz secured money from a Pueblo brewing company with which to cash some pay-checks and that he vamoosed with the money. Hence the anxiety of the Pueblo people to get in touch with Maxy. Semalititz had in his possession when arrested here $204 48 in Colorado Iron aud Fuel Co. pay-checks and $37.10 in cash. He had a ticket from Pueblo to St. Louis , but got on board No. 14 at Barr , a fact which Conductor C. E. Pope thought peculiar and which he noted , so when the train reached here and he was asked if there was such a man on board he had no dif ficulty in locating the fellow at once. The rumor that Max was simply trying to run away from his name is doubtless without foundation. It Makes No Difference.

There had been si small bank failure , mid the bank hail gone Into the hands of a receiver. The receiver had proved to be dishonest and had absconded with what remained of the funds of the Institution. Expert detectives , however , were on his track , and he was run to cartli In a mountain town and taken hack to the scene of liIsH.uancial exploits. It was after midnight when the de tectives arrived with their prisoner , and Mr. Means , the principal deposit or In the hank and therefore the prin cipal loser , was awakened at his home and informed by telephone of the cap ture. ture.He He expressed his gratification and went back to bed. Shortly afterward he was aroused to receive another telephone message to the same effect from a different source. "Thanks , " he said , "but I had heard of It already. Good night ! " And again he sought his couch. About 2 o'clock he was awakened a third time. The telephone bell was ringing. In no gentle frame of mind he an swered It. "Hello ! " he said. "Hello ! " responded a voice through the telephone. "Is this Mr. Means ? " "Yes. What do you want ? " "Mr. Means , this Is Deputy Sheriff Jones. We've caught that runaway re ceiver. Is there anything you'd like to have me do personally In the matter ? " "Yes ! " roared Mr. Means. "Hang up the receiver ! " And he was not disturbed again. Youth's Companion. Mnrlc Twain anil the Serpent's Tooth. Mark Twain's daughter. Miss Clara L. Clemens , in entering upon her career as a concert singer , had a long con ference with a manager. Many mat ters were discussed , plans made and details settled. Miss Clemens dictating lier own ideas. The young singer , who liad experienced considerable difficulty in obtaining parental consent to a pub lic career , showed her earnestness by the businesslike manner in which she looked into affairs. When matters had been fully consid ered and the manager was about to leave , Miss Clemens said , with the arge determination that small bodies not infrequently possess : "I wish it distinctly understood that my father's name is not to be men tioned at all in connection with my singing in public. " Mark Twain , who had been sitting In the room during the interview , in which , however , he had taken no part , looked up quizzically and said , with a twinkle in his eyes : "You see what it is to have a thank less child. " Saturday Evening Post. Did They ? There is nothing much more dis tressing than an unfinished story. A number of people in a London drawing room were conversing about capital punishment when a lady remarked : "How strange it must seem to be sentenced to death ! " "Not so very , very strange. I assure you. I was myself once condemned to death in Africa , " said a returned African explorer. "Indeed ! " exclaimed the lady. "And were you did they" "Did they what , madame ? " "Why , did they execute you , you know ? " Exchange. When Corks Float Cprlght. A cork which is longer than It is broad , which is the case with all ordi nary corks , floats upon its side , so to speak. How can we make it float upon its head ? Place one on end upon a table and around it place six others. Seize them all together and plunge them under wa ter so as to wet them completely. Then remove your hand gently and let them take their own position in the water , when you will find that they will stand upright , as if supporting one another. This is because the water that pene trates the cork will make them cling together. Railroading In Ireland. A somewhat nervous English tourist vouches for tlie genuineness of the fol lowing incident of Irish traveling : The train arrived some 20 minutes late at a small station , and the engine driver inquired of the station master , "Did the express go by yet , TiinY" "It did not , " was the answer. There was indecision - r decision on the part of the engine driv er for a moment when he cheerfully exclaimed , "Ah , well ; we must chance it ! " as he blew the whistle aud started off on the single line. London Outlook , Boiled Water In Ancient Times. Now that the use of boiled drinking water has become common , it is inter esting to be reminded that a similar method of guarding against disease was practiced in ancient times. Herod otus tells bow Cyrus had his drinking water boiled and carried in silver ves sels , and Pliny the elder relates that C ( Nero had water boiled and afterward cooled for drinking by placing it in glass flasks surrounded with snow. Laureate Nonsense. Tennyson is said to have been fond of foolish fun , that ever delightful sort of fun which is not wit , but nonsense. cial One day , at Burlington House , he cc asked the guests a conundrum which be had just made : "Who are the greatest women in the world ? " ct The answer was : "Miss Ouri , the Misses Ippi and Sara Gossa. " Very Grave. Twiddle I read last night of a man who was buried alive so that he might know what the sensation is like.
