(CopjrUht br
'A $3,000,000 PLOT THAT FAILED.
P all tho thieves whom It has
been my lot to know Inti
mately I have tho kindllost
recollection of Moso Vogel.
M There was something In
tensely huniHri about the
man; a whimsical, humorous way, that
made you forget that he was one of
the most desperate bank robbers over
dealt with by tho Now York police.
He was closely associated with all of
the best crooks of the world hi his
day, and his shrewdness and pluck
made him In great demand as a part
ner, oven though It was well known In
the under-world that Moso had been
born under an unlucky star. He met
with more reverses than any crook I
have ever known, and as I do not
credit, of course, the infallibility of the
llttln OnddosR of Luck In guiding tho
lives of the knights of the dark lan
tern and Jimmy, I am willing to offer
Moso's misfortunes as cumulative evl
denco of the final futility of crime.
Ho has long slnco passed to his
final reward, but I remember as clear
ly as If It were yesterday his sitting
in tho old Mulborry street station and
telling mo how ho nnd his gang al
most cleaned up f 3,000,000 from a Jer
Bey City bank. But I will let him
tell the story as he (old it to me.
MOSE VOGEL'S STORY.
"It wns along back in tho seven
ties," said Mose, "that Davo Cum
mlngs, then In the helgnt of his ramo
as a crook, met mo on the Howery,
and we went together down to the old
Atlantic Garden. Suddenly Dave
turnod to mo and said: 'I think you
aro on the lovel, Mose.' 1 folt that
this was a big compliment, coming
from Dave, for he was an Independent,
high-strung fellow, who would pass
up a thousand thieves without giving
one the nod of his head.
"I told Dave that I had always tried
to bo square and to live up to that
.wheeze in tho copy-books about 'hon
esty being tho best policy.' Ho didn't
ask mo tto go in with him then or
even let out to mo what was In his
mind. That wasn't Dave's way. But
I knew ho had his eyo on me as a
bright lad that was sure to rise in his
profession. Ho did ask me to step
down to Murray's with him, saying he
needed a little money and was In tho
mind to have a whack at Murray's
game. He had just made a big haul
somowhero and had about $6,000; so
I didn't think there was any chance of
him going to work right away. But
the cards ran against him and In less
than a week tho wholo bank roll had
p8sed into Murray's hands.
"Seeing how things were going with
Davo I sort of held myself open, turn
ing down sovoral good offers of high
class work. Sure enough he finally
hunted mo up. He had a newspaper
clipping about a big special deposit,
?3,000.000, lying in a bank In Jersey
City that he'd planted, and Just wait
ing for somebody to come and got it.
It made my mouth water to think ot
all that money.
"Dave said the work had to be
started right away, before the money
was paid out and so, after taking a
look at my engagement book, I told
him I was free to go to work any
time. We went right up to Harry
Hill's place that night and Davo in
troduced me to Ed. Johnson and Dago
Frank, a pair of Al western crooks
who had worked off several big tricks
with Davo already.
"The next day we went by different
routes to Jersey City and picked out
a quiet boarding house near Union
Hill. Tho real work of planting the
hank then began for fair.
"It took a week to plant the bank.
It came my lot to locato the vault. 1
did this by going in to look at a direc
tory. I saw that it was an old-fashioned
affair, builtln tho wall on the
east side, near the entrance opposite
the directors' room. Wo decided to
go through the wall, and hired a room
In the adjoining building, whose floor
was several feet above the vault. 1
represented to tho landlady that I
was a sculptor recently landed from
Ituly, and wished to set up a studio.
I had to pay about three prices for
tho room, as the landlady seemed to
think that a sculptor ought to have
barrels of coin. Well, wo canio near
setting It.
"I sent several blocks of marblo to
tho studloand commenced carving out
the busts of disUnguishcd men. Cum
mings, Dago Frank and Johnson wore
my assistants. I had a bed in tho
room and lived there, but my partners
slept elsewhere. I had Bledges, ham
morn and steel chisels to use In the
culpturo business apparently. We
mado tho attack on tho bank through
the open fireplace, and tho ringing
blows that were heard through the
fcouso mado the tenants believe that
the sculptors were very busy fellows.
Wo did not do much work while the
bank was open, but early In the morn,
lng and late at night pounded away
at the stone and brick.
"It was tedious work, as we bad to
so through heavy blocks of stone
which made up tho outer wall of the
vault We removed' the debris after
-dark, and let the Janltross into the
room every day to clean up. The hole
In tho wall was hidden at such times
toy a large screen. It took nearly two
-weeks to get through the stone, and
then wo found that wo wcro about
three feet above tho big money box.
This was mado of heavy iron plates,
end on top there were several layers
of railroad iron, wedged in place so
that they wero about as solid as a
mnss of Iron.
"We got rid of part of the Iron, nnd
thon It was arranged that Davo was
to do the outside work nnd glvo us
warning, of danger signs. Wo had no
foar of the pollco, but there wore a
iflt of secret sorrUs bugs ilylng

around. They wore not up to our
gnmo, but they knew mo nnd Dngo
Frank from a couplo of tricks done in
other places.
"Davo throw us down in great
shape, but I never blamed hlra for It.
Ho was nlwaya on tho level, but in
clined to take chancos. Instead of
keeping tab, Dave so ho told mo
afterward usod to drop Into Taylor's
hotel and play billiards. He could
bent about any pno that handled a
cue, and would play all night if ho
could get any one to stny with him.
Our work went on, nnd wo renched
the top plato of tho monoy box. Then
it was only a question, of drills, nclds
and jimmies to get through tho plate.
With good luck this would tako only
a few hours. I could almost feol tho
crisp bills In my fingers.
"Then came tho end, suddenly and
swiftly. Wo wero in tho pit working
by tho light of candlos, nnd supposed
that Dave was in tho building some
where. I was swinging a slodgo, John
son wns holding tho chisel and Dago
was resting. I heard a slight com
motion in tho room nbovo and thought
that Davo had come in for something.
A second later I heard a strange voice
shout into the fireplace:
"Throw up your hands!'
"I looked up and saw two police
men's heads and two guns covering
us. We threw up our hands. Then 1
said to Dago: 'Aro you heeled?' Ho
replied: 'No.,' So secure did wo feol
with Dave on guard that we had all
left our guns In the room.
" 'I nm going to make a break," I
said. 'I'm with you,' said Dago. John
son only cursed.
"'Como out or I'll shoot,' wns the
next order, nnd wo climbed out or tho
holo feeling pretty toogh. There
woro six cops in tho room and every
one had a gun. A fellow camo toward
me with nippers and I dashed for the
window. I never reached It. A club
got to me first". Johnson still cursed.
Dago went through the cops like a
shot, knocked a couplo of them down,
reached the stairs, Jumped over the
heads of several cops, and reached
tho landing. A fat cop who was too
lazy to go upstairs stood in tho hall,
and before Dago so,w him, the cop got
in his work with tho stick. Dave was
in Taylor's hotel playing billiards
when this was going on, nnd when ho
hoard it went under cover. He didt
everything that was possible to aid us,
and oven went so far as to fix up a
Job to get us out of tho Hudson coun
ty Jail. But ho didn't have enough
coin. The threo of us took our ilf-teon-ycar
stretch at Trenton without
a murmur, and Dave gave us nil the
luxuries that monoy could furnish
there. I'm going on tho level now,
but It is not liko tho old times."
CAPT. M'HORNEY'S STORY.
Capt. Edward McIIorney of the Jer
sey City pollco department, who wns
the principal factor in the capture of
tho First National bank burglars, was
one of the bravest men who over won
a silver shield. Captain McIIorney
died a few years ago from a diseaso
that was Indirectly tho result of tho
Injuries received during the struggle
with Moso Vogel, and shortly before
death scaled his lips told me this
story:
'The capturo of Vogel, Dago Frank
and Johnson was due io tne curiosity
of a woman. Her namo war Mrs.
Francis, as I recollect it, and sho ran
a boarding house over Narew's oyster
saloon, which adjoined the bank. Ono
of the thieves Vogel, I think hired
a room from her on the second floor,
which adjoined the bank on the east,
and opened a studio as a blind.
"Every morning regularly Mrs.
Francis was called Into the studio by
the sculptor to clean up the place.
The floor she always found covered
with marblo dust and chins of stnnp
and an elegant screen stood in front-
or Uie fireplace. Tho sculptor always
sat near the screen with a big apron
on and chatted pleasantly with his
landlady.
"Things went on for a week or more
In this way Tho sculptor kept ham
mering away, and Mrs. Francis en
Joyed her morning call. It was along
about housecleanlng time, and Mrs.
Francis started in one morning to
clean tho windows on tho sculptor's
floor.
"In passing through the hall with
a step ladder It struck her that It
would be a good opportunity to seo
tho sculptor at work. Sho heard him
pounding on stone in tho room, and
cautiously put up the ladder In front
of the door. The fan light Was open,
and It was this trivial oversight that
threwdown three of tho beBt men In
the business. How they camo to ovor.
look the fanlight I nover could undr
stand, as everything else in tho room
keyholes, cracks and windows
wero carefully covered.
"Mrs. Francis peeped Inside. No
ono was in sight She could see the
blocks of marble, but no ono was
hammering on them. The sound was
very distinct, and sho wondered what
It meant. She could hear voices, too.
When her eyes lit on tho open tiro
place and she saw a piece ot stone fly
from it into the room she fell off tho
ladder. The noise In the room stop
ped. Mrs. Francis picked herself up
and hurried away as rapidly as pos
sible. 8ho peopod over tho banister
and saw sonio ono open tho studio
door.
"In a moment tho hammorlng wns
resumed, and Mrs. Francis hurrlod to
pollco headquarters. I was In ennrgo,
as Chief Edward S. McWilliums was
In Philadelphia. Mrs. Francis told mo
her story I know at once that u nan
of burglars had planted tho bank.
Finm thf time that they had bnon nt
work I knew thoy must lie cloto r
tho mousy. I raug fo- Uoteotivu Mike

i) omcitts the two other fellows camo

N'W York I knew ono of them. Ho
was tho best looking ono In tho gang.
I hnd played several games or bil
liards with him nt Taylor's hotel, nnd
wns beaten every time. 1 round out
afterward that he was Cummlngs.
"Howlo nnd I crossed over to
Nafow's saloon, and got n Braall col
ored boy who worked tbere. Wo
took biln Into the boarding houeo nnd
pushed him through the open tan
light Into tho studio. The kid Jumped
Into the hole in tho llroplace, saw tho
condition or things there nnd camo
back scared hair to doath.
Then I waited at the house until
three of tho gnng enmo backt Tby
seemed to bo in a hurry, and went to
work in the vault iato In tho after
noon. Cummings did not return. I
knew tho trick was about to como off,
and he had beon left outsldo to wntch.
"I sent Bowlo to tho stntlon house
Tor tho men, nnd when thoy returned,
after making suro that Cummlngs was
not on tho lookout nnywhero, 1 sent

and I, with four big nervy men, rande
for the room. Tho sound or ti.e hwn

not tell whether tho threo men wero
In tho hole or not
"I stood Hat against tho studio door,
and placed Bowie and two policemen
behind me. It was a ticklish moment,
and I'll admit I lelt a Uttlo uneasy, as
men or the kind wo woro going up
against are very handy with guns. 1
gave tho slgnnl in a low voice, and
wo threw ourselves against tho door.
It was important that tho locks and,
bolts should bo broken at the first
effort, so that tho gang would .not
hive warning.
"Tho door flow open, nnd I landed
o my hands and knees In tho mlddlo
o',' thfo room. Tho place was empty,
and I Jumped for the llreplaco with
my revolver In my hnnd.
"Bowlo, ono of tho stoutest-heartod
boys I ever know, got there ahend ol
mn and shouted to the gang to throw
up their hands. In the holo were
threo men on their hnnds nnd kneos
and I heard them whisper to each
other, but could not toll what they
said. I knew that they would not
glvo up without a bnttle and I folt re
llovcd when one of the policemen
shouted: 'Hero aro their guns, Cap.'
"Thoy were unarmea, and I know J
had them nil Ft a re. Tho three fellowa
climbed out of the hole with as ugly
expressions on tholr mugs as I ever
saw. One or them kept swearing all
the time. They kept their hands
nbovo their heads, but I could seo that
they wero sizing up the gamo as they
crawled Into tho room. Before wo
had a chance to grab them, one fol
low gnvo mo a vicious kick in tho
abdomen, nnd started for the window.
"My men would have killed him if
I had not called them off. Another of
tho thieves made for tho door. Ho
was a black-looking devil and had tho
courage of a lion. Why ho was not
killed I nevor could understand, but 1
suppose wo got a little careless when
wo round out they had nothing to
shoot with nnd gave them moro or a
chance. But wo got the handcuffs on
thorn and landed them In tho station
house.
"There was a sequel to this cap
ture which croated even greater ex
citement than tho attempted bank
robbery. Tho thieves 'squealed' at
their trial and said that Captain Mc
Williams and Detective Doyle, who
was McWilllams' confidential man,
were In the scheme to rob the bnnk
and were to bo rewarded with a share
of the proceeds for giving them pro
tection. "The trial of Captain McWllllnms
and Doyle was the most sensational
one ever held In Hudson county. Tho
thieves told of their various mootlngs
with Doyle. A diary was produced
containing a record of tho conversa
tions with him and the convicts swore
out a vory stiff case. A point that
was mado to count strongly ngalnst
Captain McWilllams was his absence
in Philadelphia when the trick' wns to
have come off, but all the Jury would
not believe tho testimony ot the mon
who had been thieves all their lives
In preteronce to men or good reputa
tion nnd tho Jury failed to agree. Mc
Willlams spent a fortune In his de
renso, gave up the pollco business and
became a detective nt the Astor
House. Doylo was ruined and drnnk
himself to death.

ever does it fly up and crawl down.
Hens scratch for food nlwaya with tho

QUALITIES OF THE AYRSHIRE
Animal Is Quite Intelligent, Quick to
Learn and of Retentive Memory
Easy to Milk.
Tho general appearanco of an Ayr
shire, as you look at her, Is striking,
being ttleit mid full of life and re
served energy. Sho Is n healthy cow,
rarely having ailments of body nnd
udder, and you seldom seo an Ayrshire
cow but that haB four healthy qunr
tors in her udder and gives u uniform
quantity of milk from each. She is
a vary persistent milker, giving a
uniform quality well up toward calv
ing, uud many .of thorn aro dried off
with dlfllculty.
Sho Is vory intelligent, quick to
learn nnd of a rotontlvo momory,
easily taught to tako tho sauio placo
in tho stablo and. If required to
change, will In a fow days readily
ako the now placo. Sho Is quiet
nnd pleasant to milk, not easily dis
turbed, and will ns a rule yield her
milk as readily to one milker ns to
another, and docs not scorn dlsturbod
by any amount of noise In the stnblo.
' Ab a dairy cow sho is particularly
adapted to tho production of milk for
tho milkman nnd for table use, as her
medium bIzo, vigorous appetite nnd
oasy keeping qualities mako nor an
economical producer, while her even,
uniform production makes her a roll
able supply, and tho richness or nor
milk in totnl solids places it above
suspicion from city milk Inspectors.
Hor milk Is particularly adnpted to
transportation, as It does not churn
or sour easily, and when poured bnck
and forth a fow times will readily
mix tho cream bsck into tho milk,
which will not agaltc readily separate,
giving It a uniform quality until tho
last Is sold or used. It has a good
body, is rich looking and never looks
blue. Tho milk itself being -easily
balanced with casein and buttor fat,
Is a complete food, easily digested,
nutritious, and Is particularly ndaptod
to chlldron nnd Invalids. Stomachs
that aro weak nnd unnblo to direct
other milk find no trouble with Ayr
shire cow's milk.
FOR USE IN MILKING COW
Invention of Florida Man Provides

The Scientific American In describ

appliance, invented by G. M. Lummla
or Fort Myers, Fla., says:
"This invention provides a ertical
partition interposed between tho cow
and tho milker, and constructs tho

and an adjoining compartment where
the milker Is locatod.
Extra Feed for the Cow.
Pastures have boen good aiul re

keep watch now as tho pasturo dries
that cows do not shrink in milk, for
It will 'be nearly Impossible to bring
thorn bnck to a good flow. Cows fed,

thoso on alralght grass, uud thu aano

because they nro firmer and swent

weight or milk solids tho' Holstelns
required 3,283 pounds or nutriment,
and other breeds still moro. Ab a

Prepare for Future.
It Is Imperative that wo provide
somo means of tiding tho dairy herd
over tho season of falling pasturos,
Instead of vainly regretting that It

The dairyman who depends upon
tho pasturo during the summer and

is treading on treacherous ground.
PROFITS INCREASED BY UIL0
Dairyman Should Be Ready to Tako
Advantage of Opportunities to Ro-
duce His Expenses.
(By J. 13. DOltMAN.)
If a dairy farmer wero told that ho
could roll sllvor dollars down n hill
and then pick up two dollars for ovory
one .he rolled down, and this statement
wns verified by somo of his neighbors
and hundreds of other dairy farmers
In tho country, that farmer would stay
up nights nnd roll tho dollars. But
when told that ho could doublo tho
profits by tho uso ot the silo lio bo
comos very lndlfferout nnd keeps on In
tho snmn old rut foodlng dry feed,
wasting nonrly half of his corn crop
and doing n lot of unnecessary work.
In theso days of closo competition,
dairymen should bo ready to tnko ad

will ha, found (tint it U easier. If the

Whoro the dry stalks aro fed, nt

ditions, however, do not last vory
long.
The silo comes as near to supplying
tho ideal conditions as anything that
can bo found, and It Is available evory
day in the year. It provides a uniform
feed for evory ono of the twelve
montliB.
Highly sensitive dairy cows resent
any suddon or vlolont chango In feed,
and will show it by a decreased milk
flow. The change from fall pasture
to dry feed is always followod by a
shrinkage In the milk.
In changing from tho pasturo to the
silage, tho chango is not bo great, and
ofton the cows increase the flow of
milk when Btartcd o'n silage. Several
dairymen havo recently made the
statement that the lncorased profits
paid for the silo tho first year.
Common Scrub Cow.
The scrub cow is altogether too
common. Even though tho herd is
mado up of nothing but registered
stock, a rather stronuous camDnlcn of
selecting must bo conducted all tho
time.
Pasteurized Milk.
In somo ntntes the law Is that all
milk aftor July 1 mUBt be pasteurized
beforo loavlng tho creamory. In Don
mark milk Is pasteurized nt nil times.
Rusty milk utensils havo absolutely
no placo in tho dairy.
The most expensive animal on tho
farm is tho scrub bull.
Cows that aro on pasturo should
havo free access to salt.
Don't hesitate to Increase tho grain
ration to keep up tho milk flow.
Dairy stoctc on tho farm la the key
noto to sane and successful systems.
Tho heifer whoso first milk period
Is long, frequently dovclops the habit
of long periods.
Tho first cssontlal In tho manufac
ture or a high grado of butter Is a
good quality ot cream.
With soiling crops and some grain
tho dairy herd should maintain a prof
itable production.
One paper says: "Clean up fre
quently." It would bo hotter for the
dairy farmer to kcop things clean all
tho time.
If the calves that are In the pas
turo are expected to do well thoy
should have plenty of shade and plen
ty ot good nlean water.
Among tho men who havo been
phenomenally successful on the farm
thosH who have followed dairying
stnnd out prooralnuntly.
Tho demand for dairy products will
never fall off seriously so long as
quality Is good and tho present rate
of lncroase in population coptlnuos.
