The JHrliiliitf Illvcr.
Everything but the dust wns phenomenally
iniict yesterday , but that was sufllclently act
ive to make walking or driving very unpleas
ant. The consequence was that the crowds
on the streets were much smaller than the
beautiful Sunday preceding. The attendance
at the churches was also smaller than usual.
The parks and pleasure resorts drew but
small crowds.
Travel on the motor line , however , was
very heavy. Sunday has become a day of
universal visiting between the two cities , and
thousands of people exchanged visits during
the day. As many Council Bluffs iwoplo
visited Omaha a.s Omniums the Bluffs. Every
tr.iln carried full loads both ways. The
crowds srolng both ways represented all
classes of citizens seeking all funds of recrea
tion and amusement. Some of the Omaha
delegations returned very much disgusted
when they umdo the circuit of the
city and found every place which sold
anything stronger mid moro exhilarat
ing than a cigar hermetically closed ,
and the leorganl/.ed police force engaged In a
.still bunt for every private snap. Nolan
arrest was. made until after 4 o'clock In the
afternoon when the clerks and a number of
the customers of one of the Broadway cigar
stores wore taken in charge by Officers Mar
tin and Bolin , who surprised them in a quiet
panic of casino la a rear room. Only the man
In charco was wanted , but the others volun
teered to go and all accomp ailed the ofllcers
to the central station. They were subse
quently released on satisfactory ball with the
understanding that they would como around
and tell .ludgo Mc ( leo ail about it this morning.
The place was onlercd closed by police
orders during the remainder of the day. The
young men endeavored to explain that it was
a harmless , friendly gatno of casino , aud that
two nickels lying on the table in front of the
clerk had just been paid for the purchase of a
box of cigarettes , but it was no good. The
proprietors afterwards obtained an order
from the mayor to penult them to reopen.
The affair has given a piquancy to ; , the
mayor's Sunday closing orders , iindTlio
saloonkeepers are beginning to re.illxe that
Mayor Macrae means business and bis police
mean to enforce his orders when a popular
cigar store is raided and closed and Its cus
tomers arrested when found engaged in an
innocent game of muggins or old maid.

A Itlg Krai Estate Suit.
The papers were Hied in the superior court
Saturday evening in a suit that involves a
great deal of property oa Upper Broadway.
The plaintiff is E. II. Sheafo and the defend
ants are Charles Baughn and wife , and is
brought by Sheafo for tlio purpose of clearing
the title to property purchased from Baughn
In 1-Vbrutirv , 1SS" . The real estate involved
are lots pill. 1 . HiO , iW : and 131 , original plat
of Council Bluffs.
Baugha and his wife executed to Sheafo a
ipilt claim deed and a contract that called for
a warranty deed when its conditions were
fulfilled. Baughn and wife represented
that they wciv the owners of the property ,
and that it-i title was clear. The property
lies between Broudw.ry and Pierce streets ,
east of the Ogdcn house. Hheafo was to pay
$ | -2)0l , ( ) ( for tlio properly > ( X ) of which was
paid down and the balance was secured by
nine promissory notes for ? T > 00 each , and ono
for * r.0 ( ) ( ) . At the time of the pur
chase Baughn represented that the prop
erty had a frontage of 1BO feet on
Broitdwav when ia reality there was but 130
feet , aim the property was sold at STo per
foot on the former measurement ,
The plaintiff allege.- ) that , though the de
fendant represented that he had a good title
to the property , In fact his title was clouded
and defective , which fact was not known to
the plaintiff , who relied on the statements of
Baughn. The petition takes up each of the
lots and specifics the defect In the title. Lot
Wi is found to have belonged to tlio defend
ants only in part , the title to ono sub-division
being in another party. Lot 12S was sold by
the mayor of the city for taxes in September ,
1M1I , and has passed through various bauds
since that time , The present title , so far as
the records show , is in ono Brownlce , ami not
in Bauglin. Lot. lao is shown by the records
to belong to ono Ocorgo W. Harris , and
Baughn 1ms no interest in it. Lot ! ! > ) was
once mortgaged to secure a 5 > . " > il debt , and the
cloud on the title has never been removed.
The title now rests , so far as the records
show , In Charles Bond.
The plaintitT su\s that because of thci-e
facts it Is Impossible for the defendant to
perfect the deed which ho promised.
Tlio plaintiff says he discovered that bo
had boon swindled , and thai the title of the
property In which he had invested Ids hard
cash w.is not as need as lie had supposed ,
shortly after the transaction had taken place ,
and ho called Banglm's attention to the de
fects which existed in the title. Buuglni ac
knowledged that the defects existed , but said
that he would correct them at once. Tills
tirems to have satiMled Sheafr , and bo agreed
to wail. And .so he waited , but the tltlo has
never been undo any bettor. Within tlio
lust few days Baughn , it is said , has acknowl
edged that he cannot correct the defects , and
said that he had done all he could do.
M this Sheafo proposed that the contract
should be rescinded , and that ho would sur
render the niiit claim deed and the contract
for a deed if Haimliu would turn over the
promissory notes held by him against Sheafo
and refund the- amounts which Sheafo had
paid as principal , interest , taxes and insur
ance , amounting In all to > S , . " > ( i7.TO. This
Baughii has refused to do , and Sheafo pr.iys
a decree of the court compelling him to do
this. And ho also prays for the appointment
of a receiver , who shall take charge of the
property and hold It till the matter shall liavo
been derided by the courts.

Tlio Dividing Itlvor.
At the First Baptist church yesterday the
Kev.1T. . J. Williams of Orange , N. J. , occu
pied the pulpit and pie.iho.l a powerful sor-
inoa from Luke 111ii ; > . "And besides all this
between us and you there h a great gulf
fixed so that they who would pass from lienco
to you can not ; neither would they pass to us
that would-como from bunco. "
The fixedness of doom in future lifo Is hero
expressed. The text , however , was used
with some license , la iirdor to represent the
position rvcryono holds to this gulf In tlio
pre-ont life. Thi'ro was not always such a
gulf between the lost and the saved , though
a real separation always existed. This gulf
In eternity was therefore represented hero In
Umo as , Hist , .in chlldaood , u inert ) brook ;
second , la youth , enlarged Into a river ; third ,
la mlddlo ago , a larger and moro rapid river ;
fourth , In old ago , a raging torrent ; ami
filially , la death , the Impossible gulf of the
text. The Christian was represented with
his Saviour upon the right bank of this
stream and the sinner upon the loft bant : ; so
that there was presented at a glance the ever
widening distance between the Saviour and
the iniiMMiltent. and also the other truth , that
in this lift-oao can cross the dividing river ,
whllo la the future life- all is H.xcd , ami to the
last there cua bo no hope of gaining heaven.
With this pictorial representation the
preacher lr.st ! traced the course of a person
down the loft bank of this dividing river ,
casting his discourse In allegorical form. A
child wits selected at the ago when ho became I
responsible for his choice. . At the beginning
of his responsible life bis Sundav school
teacher and other friends approached the op
posite bank and invited him to cross over.lint
lie declined , choosing rather to ivniuln with
his gay companions on the loft bank , where
everything scorned moro attractive to him.
Years pass with llttlo serious thought. But
at the ago of youth hu again approaches the
dividing waters. Ho even casts a wistful
flauco to llio other shore aud uu
of sad surprise passc.i over his face tw ho sees
how the stream \vldcnedMlicehoatood
upon Its banks In hl.s childhood , .fust here
an old Christian friend comes to the opposlto
bank and urges him to cros.s , reminding him
how unsatisfying ho has found all worldly
pleasures , and Diluting him to the true path
of peace. AH ho Is almost persuaded , but
hesitates , his parents , the Savior with his
pierced hands , and his sister , who has been
walking with him , conic to urge him. He
finally steps Into the river to pass over with
Ids sister , but he stops and turns luck , while
his sister crosses over aad Is received on the
other side with rejoicing. In vain do they
now attempt to pcr.-wiulo the youth , for In
turning back ho has lost his interest and
again lie joins his old companions In sin ,
heedless of the future.
Other years pass , and la the sedatcness of
mlddlo llfo ho Is drawn to the river's bank by
the event of his mother's death. As ho
watches her ascent to the celestial city , and
seas the pearly gates open to receive her , and
then close , siiuttlng her forever from his
sight , a view of his life rushes before him. Ho
sees especially the tlmo la his youth when ho
was almost persuaded to cross the river.
And then , as ho looks upon the swift current
and then to the distant shore , ho is dismayed
at the thought of the Increasing difficulties of
the passairc. Again does the Saviour appear
to Invite him over. Ills pastor also speaks a
word of counsel. But in sadness ho turns
away te drown his feelings in the world.
Thus ho goes on till old ago creeps upon
him , weakening his powers both of body and
mind. When again brought to the river ,
terror .seizes him as ho looks at the rushing
torrent , the opposite shore so distant that ho
'can scarce see It , and the dark gulf so near nt
hand. Ho hears n voice tbo voice of Jesus
coming from the opitosllo shore , yet again in
viting him to cross. But ho dare not try to
stem that raging flood , and so turns uway In
despair and continues his downward course.
At last ho reaches the place where the
river merges Into the gulf , and as ho stands
in terror thinking how different tire tin *
scenes which surrounded the mouth of the
river f i-oiii those which surrounded its source
la his childhood , the overflowing witters of
death come upon him and bear him away to
the nether side of the imp.issablo gulf. Aud
from this terrible doom of the lost , ho pleads
that one may bo seat from paradise to relieve
his sufferings , but is answered In the words
of our Lord as contained la the parable from
which the text is taken.
Followlagthis allegorical representation of
his thought , the preacher applied the truths
to each class ho had noticed ; exhorting in
turn the children , theyouth , the middle-aged
and the aged to heed tlio gracious invitation
of the Saviour without further del.'iy , and en
forcing liis exhortations with appropriate and
varied illustrations/
The discourse closed with these words :
Were I to slop hero I might leave a wrong
impression. For I have spoken as though you
would all live to see old age. It is not so. Of
some here , duobtlcss , God has said , "This
year thou shall die. " And this mark of death
may have been put on some of you who are
young. Multitudes fall Into this river la
early life , and are swept to the aether shore
of the impassable gulf , there to lament for
ever the presumption of neglecting their sal
vation. And here is a warning for you , chil
dren. You may not live to bo youths. Seek
the Lord , then , In your childhood. Defer not
for another hour this first great duty of every
one.who has como to the ago when ho is re
sponsible for his own _ choice. And if it be so
important that children should cheese Christ
without delay , since their day of death may
bo at hand , then bow much louder the call to
the youth , the middle-aged and the old. To
one and all then I say ia closing , behold your
insecurity. Behold the river , which is daily
removing you further from Christ and from
heaven. And beholding this , oh , be persuaded
to improve the present gracious opportunity
to seek the Lord , and to seek him with ail
your heart. For tbo assurance is , "And yo
seek me , and mid me , when yo shall search
for me wi.th all your heart. "

The Driver < 3ot fict't.
S. T. McAtco aad W. D. Hardin arranged
for an early drive to Manawa yesterday morn
ing , and engaged Felix Bogcn , who has been
in the employ of Overseer of the Poor Mart
Ilardiu , for a long time , to drive them down.
They were to start at : i : ! 10 a.m. from McAtec's
store. The driver was a little late , aud was
making up time by some first class sprinting
on Lower Main street. The sound of the
hurrying footsteps startled Olllcer Wagcclc
and ho dropped in the wiiko of the Hying
man and sprinted also. Ho overhauled the
teamster within three blocks from the start ,
and demanded an explanation of bis un
seemly speed tit that unseemly hour. The ex
planation was given , but it was not satisfac
tory. The otliccr refused to accompany his
prisoner to the rendezvous , but took him to
the Kiel house and summoned the patrol
wagon , and instead of driving a lively party
to the lake Felix was driven to the police sta
tion and locked up and the charge of being a
suspicious character placed against him. Ho
spent tbo remainder of the time until after
chinch last evening in thosuwcr , when Judge
Ml-Uoo , at llio solicitation of the man's
friends , eamo down to the station and dis
charged him.
A Reported Highway Koliliery.
A rumor was brought up from Mauawa at
a late hour last night that a bold attempt at
robbery was made on the highway at 10
o'clock. The rumor eamo from several differ
ent sources and was apparently reliable , but
the name of the victims could not bo learned.
Ho was returning from town oa horseback ,
and when passing on the road leading around
the lake ho was stopped by two men who
eamo out of tbo willows and endeavored to
ilr.ig him from his horse. He broke away
from tl'oni and started to run when several
shots wore fired at him In tbo darkness. None
of the bullets struck the rider , but ono of
them hit the liorso and seriously wounded It.
The man is said to live in tlio county be
yond tbo lake and continued on his way home
with his wounded horse.

They Conl'csscd Too Muoh.
A singular e.xritement is in progress
among the church membersof Hamilton ,
Madison county , which has wrecked the
happiness of suvoral families and is like
ly to lead to endless misery , says a Ko-
koinn , Intl. , special to the Now York
World. A travelling ovangolisl , who
has claimed lo belong to the 1'rotestant
Episcopal church , held a series of reviv
al meetings there which lasted several
weeks and his labors wuro crowned with
remarkable success , noople Hocking for
miles to hear him. Many converts were
secured and the enthusiasm of all these
who participated in the meetings was
great.
Among the converted wore several of
the most prominent citi/.ensof the neigh
borhood , who at once became very active
workers and as the excitement grew n
now kind of worship was instituted by
the evangelist. Each of the members
and converts was required to rulato hltt
own sins publicly. Under the impulse
of this religious frenzy several husbands
made astonishing confessions to which
their wives took exception , and now the
domestic relations of several families are
all torn asunder. The wives of thrco
penitent husbands , who related their ex
perience , now declare they will ut once
apply for divorce.

HELPING THE NEEDY A SIDE AFFAIR.
Ilvncvoloiico ntnl Sympathy Lost Sl lit
of When Hie Ooltl Hunt Is 1-Jn-
tercd t'poif "V I-'IMV IHnU
to You n f ; Jlun.
Howard Crosby In April Forum : The
making of money Is a most becoming busi
ness , If the object bo to support In comfort
one's self and family. It would bo also n
most becoming business , If the object were to
give uway the money to those that need It ,
but not ono In ten millions over followed such
a plan. Many think they are doing some
thing of this sort w'lien they arc only Intend
ing to give out of their swelling profits for
thobenelltof the needy ; but this Is only a
conscience drug , that the personal proflts may
besought the moro eagerly. The object is
not to help the nec.ly. Tint Isusldo affair.
But there am many fciHiblo men who limit
their desire of tirjiioy-m.tking to the comfort
able and iv2.isou-.iblo suppji't of self and
family. This principle Is tot.illy different ,
from that of desiring wealth. It Involve ?
none of the dangers which wo have enumer
ated above. On the contrary , It Is a healthy
principle , promoting industry , regularity , so
cial Improvement , and public utility. It com
mands respect and does not exclto envy. It
helps mutual dependence and docs not pro
duce selllsh Isolation. It conforms to the di-
vluo law of labor , and hence sweetens the
hours of rest.Tho aids to happiness , there
fore , In this form of money-making , are
unspeakably greater than in the raeo for
wealth or In the actual possession of riches.
The men who tire found in this class arc
( other things being equal ) the bappiest men
on earth. Their contentment is a dally en
joyment , and not deferred to the end of a hot.
race , only then to turn out a deception. Of
course they , like all men , will have theh- dis
appointments , but our comparison now is only
between them and tlio slaves of Mammon. It
Is in this comparison that we confidently as
sert the towering superiority of the bread
winner' to tlio wealth-seeker or wealth-pos
sessor. Wo have spoken of the disadvantages
of the wealth-possessor. Tim wealth-seeker
has others , but , while different from those of
the wealth-possessor , they are equally harm
ful to himself and to society. He is not as
yet exposed to the catalogue of woes which
wo have enumerated , which , like an enemy's
battcrv , are opened for the millionaire ; but a
more disguised , yet no less destructive , evil
is connected with his progress.
What is the inevitable result to himself i
His eye cannot bo taken oft the di.stant goal ,
or ho will lese his bearings and inevitably
fail , for the distance of the goal multiplies
the conditions and sequences that enter into
the race. Hence his whole being must bo
absorbed in the one thing. Mental improve
ment and social culture must be denied. In
such a process the mind must , necessarily
shrink , and the disposition become blunted.
The man dwarfs as the monoy-maker grows.
The healthy enjoyment of intellectual exer
cise , the increase of general knowledge , the
pleasures of observation in nature and art ,
the genial fellowship of enlightened menand
the mellowness of attrition with the world's
varieties , are all impossible when the gold-
hunt is entered on. The germs of broadness ,
benevolence and sympathy which were in the
soul at the start are all smothered , for , if al
lowed to grow , they would seriously interfi-ro
with the arrival at El Dorado. U is for this
reason that a manias ho gains richesbecomes
close and miserly. Ho has constructed a
fortress of selfishness in which lie is impreg
nable. The few conspicuous exceptions to
this rule bv no means invalidate- . That
some men have successfully resisted this law
of tendency is to their honor , but still the law
remains. Even with regard to
the exceptions , wo are wont to
judge too liberally. The man of
0,000,000 gives $100 ( XK ) to a college , and the
newspapers blazon his generosity , and yet
when the man with $100,000 gives SOX ) ( the
same proportion ) to any object of worth , no
newspaper over thinks of souudinghis praise.
The latter gift is , indeed , far the larger , be
cause the man of $10lKM ) ( ) needs all his income
to live with the ordinary comforts of life ,
while the man of ? ' . ' 0,000X)0 ( ) has nearly
$1,000,0(10 ( of surplus every year. Moreover ,
this millionaire's gift , besides being a mere
drop spilling over his brimming bucket , is
very often pressed out of him by the machin
ery of events. In itself it is no proof of
public spirit or human sympathies. With
all this caution about indiscriminate praise ,
we cheerfully acknowledge that there are
men of great wealth "and men who are mak
ing great wealth , who are likewise men of
great heart. But again we say that this does
not in the least mar our argument.
Another evil in the gold-hunt is that which
is produced on the community. Wehave
seen how it shrivels the man who hunts.
Now let us sec how it harms the public. The
healthiest form of human society is where
the many are equally independent in their
management of their affairs , where profes
sions and trades are represented by Individ-
mil thinking minds , and where those engaged
in any ono branch of industry stand on a
level with ono another. This condition of
things promotes invention , activity , interest ,
manliness , and good citi/rn.shlp. Now , the
gold-hunt system is directly antagonistic to
all this. It seeks to destroy the many inde
pendent tradesmen , and to make them serv
ants in a gigantic monopoly. The happy
homes of freemen become the pinched quar
ters of serfs. The lords of trade have their
hundreds and thousands of humble subordi
nates , over whom they rule , often with n rod
of iron. They may bo turned away from
work and wages at any moment , from any
whim of the seltlsh employer. Hence , through
fear of this they lese their manhood , and
dare- not r.isert oven a decision of their con
science. There is no more melancholy sight
to my eyes than that which I so often sec
nowadays , the former happy possessor of a
shop or store , who has lived comfortably and
with tlio true nobility of a citizen , and
whoso family has felt the dignity of the
home , now made a clerk and drudge in a huge
establishment , that by its relentless use of
millions has undermined and overthrown all
the independent stores of a largo district ,
while his family are thrust Into the unsavory
communism of a tenement house , and lose all
the-delicate refinements of a quiet homo. It
is easy to say that this but the natural law of
trade. So to devour men is tlieiialur.il law
of tigers. But this truth will not reconcile
us to the process. If wo are to stop men
from stealing dlrcctlv , wo can stop men from
stealing indirectly. If natural 'Jaws .work
evil to thocommunity , wo are to make statute
law , Which will act as supernatural law , and
control the offensive principle. Unless wo
wish our old social1 equality destroyed and a
system of practical serfdom totakoits place ,
we must put a limit to the acts of greed , and
so porserve the Independence of our clti/ens.
If the liberties of the multitude are to be
guarded , the liberty of ono man to buy
up all the laud or all the dry
goods in the market must bo checked. Cap
ital must bo circumscribed , except under .spe
cial circumstances , when special conditions
should Ix ) made for th ( > protection of the com
munity. The story of such accumulation of
money power as that of the Standard oil
trust Is the storv of an enslaved community ,
and the premonition of a future oligarchy as
odious as that of Home , which ruined the
empire.
And this brings isfo ( another evil wrought
on the public by the linsto to bo rich. It evi
dently leads to crooked dealing. In so ex
citing a chase an advantage ) Is not to bo missed
because of a llttlo question of right and
wrong. A llo here , a cheat there , these are
the overy-day occurrences by which to get
around the neighbor or the custom lionso or
the stockholder. A brlbo well placed Is a
stroke of j'onlns. Kinploycs are trained In
deception and the community Is morally cor
rupted. Legislatures , whom wo trust for out
laws , become the paid servants of the gold-
hunters , and Justice Is polluted In our courts.
The madness that iKmcsses the man who U
chasing after wealth knows no bounds. His
moral code Is completely set asldo in the
sphere of Ids money making. Principhn that
lie would count most Important in a theory
of morals , tire wholly Inoperatlvo hi
his ilnanelal carosr. II > slaughters
widows and orphans with Ids linen !
sword , ho remorselessly sMidshls rival tu
pauperism and suicide , he manufactures false
itock und seizes upon illegal dividends , und
ho uses tbo conlUlcnco of the unsuspecting fur
tuo ruin , This system , rapldiy fc'rowlui ;
us , Is poisoning tlio whole public bodv mid
making lying und stealing and fraud subjects
of merriment where they should bo provoca
tives of Indignation and retribution , So pos
sessed 1 * the public mind of this Idea of our
modern money-hunters , that even the per
fectly Innocent man of wealth cannot escape
the Imputation that his money was gotten by
ways that are dark. The people have almost
como to bollevo that great wealth Implies
great rascality. It Is a very false Judgment ,
and vet the reason for it is in the evident
rascality with which so many have grasped
their gold.
The Injury done to tlio family Is also mi In
jury to the state , for the family is the unit of
the state. Where the men of a family arc In
the wild pursuit of wealth the basis or family
affection and morality cannot exist. That
basis Is mutual conference- and intimate
confidences. But the gold-chase gives no
time for this. The man is n sort or boarder
In his own house. Ho lilts in and out like a
stranger. His heart Is elsewhere. So wife
and children are without their proper guide
and stay. They seek for amusement in ques
tionable quarters. They find other centers
than the homo. The husband ( house-bond , if
that be the rlpht origin of the word ) Is not In
his place , and the household Is disintegrated.
Disorders of every sort enter such n family ,
and the lnci-en.se of wealth only intensifies the
symptoms.
But now ono word to the young man who Is
making haste to be rich. Not one out of ten
thousand , who give talent , energy and life to
this race ever reach the goal. Wo have seen
that the goal Itself Is a grand delusion , but as
you will not see that truth , perhaps the tre
mendous clmnccs against you In the race mav
turn you to a wiser course. Your competi
tors are legion , and they have no bowels of
mercy. They carry sharp daggers and use
them skillfully. The rare becomes a game of
heartless trickery , and your discomfiture1 will
excite no sympathy. You cannot stop a mo
ment to rest or you'll bo trodden under foot.
Plot ami counter-plot will keep
you busy day and night until
your brain reels and your physical faculties
fall. Your hair becomes piematurely white ,
your Jimbs totter , your food has no rcll h ,
yoiir disposition grows sour , you are nervous
with expectation" fear. Altogether you
are a very miserable creature , made so bv
your own willfulness. With mind and body
thus weighed down , the thought that all is
done for a questionable advantage and also by
questionable means , will haunt you in spite of
youisolf , and add a moral sting to the intel
lectual and physical decay.
When wo say this to tlie young man who is
bewitched by the siren , either thorough un
belief is his response , or else he is sure that
bis is an exceptional case , and that lie is
going to be wise enough to avoid the mistakes
and calamities that have wrecked so many
before him. It is the hope of the Infatuated
gambler who puts down his money in spite of
the staring facts of tlm gambling table. If
America is to be ruined it will be by material
ism , the accumulation of individual wealth ,
and the mad clmso for such accumu
lation. It is that which will dry
up human sympathies , divert the mind from
high and healthy thought , degrade art and
science and literature , destroy family life ,
poison the fountains of society , sanction im
moralities , and make the nation a seething
caldron of selfishness and unrest.
The greatest need of our land today is an
education away from this fearful danger , a
cultivation of the quiet and improving arts ,
an encouragement of genial amUiencvolent
lives , a preservation of homo virtues , a teach
ing of the truth that moderation best serves
the cause of happiness , mid n demonstration
that in helpfulness toothers man best helps
himself. While wise laws can do much to
suppress some of the woi-ot features of the
gold limit , it is to the press , the school and
the church that we must look for the Inculca
tion of the purer and loftier ideas that will
meet mid overcome the materialism which
the peculiar conditions of our country have
fostered , and which the thoughtless minds of
our youth so readily accept.

UOIJBING A SAKE.
How a Siiavo HiuKhuOutwitted a
Patrolman.
A night watchman who was einploycil
to protect u jewelry store in Denver
against the ravages of thieves was
neatly outwitted by'tlio notorlou * Billy
Forrester # 01110 yours before Ills death ,
siys : the Philadelphia Times. The linn
L'uiTicil an immense Htook of JJIMIIS , and
kept them in a largo old-fashioned safe.
Forrester had , by lotifj years' experi
ence , become bo familial- with sited of
that pattern that ho could tell when to
reverse ami when to turn the kind ) for
ward , by placing his ear close to tin * door
above the combination , and in this
way could open the safe in a short time.
By taking a wax impression of the Uey-
liolc he made a key for the front ( loot1.
Having previously located tln > safe in
the store , he was now ready to br-gin. It
was a cold , snowy , stormy night , about
10 o'clock , and Forrester walked up to
the store with an air of ownership and
unlocked the door. lie carried a small
sample c eo in his hand. Going in , lie
turned up the gas in the rear of tlio
store ami then shook dow the stove , lie
leisurely worked the combination to the
safe , and in less than half an hour ho
had before him thousands of dolhits'
worth of costly jewels and watches. At
this very interesting point the night
watchman came in.
"Good evening , ' ' said tin1 cordial
burglar , as ho continued to remove
valuables from the safe to his simple
case.
"Come back to the fire and warm
yourself ; it is very cold out tonight. "
The patrolman allowed that U was und
sauntered back to the stove.
"I'm packing up my samples' . " went on
the thief suavely. "Going out on tin-
road in tlio morning , and thought [
would got ready tonight. There ! isn't
that a beauty V he asked , holding out an
elegant JurgeiiHon for the watchman to
examine.
"In this-way Forrester packed over
W,000 worth of gems and watches into
his sample case , chatting cheerfully
with the night watchman all the while.
As ho was about to close his sample
case he sloped suddenly as if ptruck by a
happy thought , and then picked up a
very 'prettv ring. Turning to the watch
man he asked him if he had a wife. The
watchman had , and with a careless
laugh Forrester tossed him the ring ,
saying : "CJivo her that , and tell her it
is a mark of appreciation for the faith
ful services rendered by her husbnnd. ' '
The brilliant guardian of other pee
ple's property was delighted , and was
unusually wide awake all the rest of tbe
night. It was not until the next morn
ing that ho became aware of the hoax
that had been practiced upon him. For-
renter by that time was well out of the
way , and his connection with the job
bery was not discovered till a few days
before his death , when ho confessed It.
