If I shoo Id visit deteotiT. headquarters
ta Um city ball in Philadelphia tomorrow
I know exactly what sort of a greeting I'd
receive. The boys would all jump from
their chairs and yell out:
"A-h-h-hl The old man Bender come to
give himself npl"
Then I'd be taken down, locked up for
half a day and finally released with a great
deal of growling because they couldn't
prove it on me.
1 used to go to Philadelphia several
times a year to collect some money for an
orphan. She was a real nice orphan, bat I
had to pass the business over to other
hands. They got so they arrested me
every time I showed up, aod their eternal
vigilance finally made me tired.
On the occasion of my first arrest I had
landed in Camden. As I boarded the
ferryboat I noticed a stranger eying me
attentively, and then consulting a printed
postal card. By the time the boat landed
at the f uwt vt Marital street he was satis
fied, and be approached me and said:
"Xe nonsense now, Mr. Whitel I want
you to go n p to headquarters!"
I went with him. He was tickled all
over. He was sure he had a Pennsylvania
embezzler, for whom a reward of $350 was
offered. I didn't want to dash his hopes,
and so didn't say anything until taken be
fore the chief of police. That was six hours
after my arrest, as he was out ef town. 1
spent the interval in a cell, and the cow
thief in the adjoining box kindly advised
me to keep my mouth shut and do no
squealing. They had to tarn me loose.
They did it grudgingly and with a hint
that I ought to be held for a week as a
auspicious character.
A month later, as I entered the city by
railroad, and just as 1 was leaving the big
depot, a gentleman linked his arm in mine
in an affectionate way and said:
"Now, then, step right over with me to
see the chief! I've been looking for yon
for a long timet"
"Haven't made any mistake about it,
have youf" I asked.
"Not if the court knows herself! We
are on to your little game, and I've been
expecting you for the last fortnight!"
There isn't any use in kicking and being
disagreeable when a man has been expect
ing yon as long as that.
I tried to be cheerful as we walked
along. I even joked with him, but he was
no joker. He said I might tickle a county
constable with some of my old chestnuts,
but it was useless to try them on him.
When we got to headquarters the ohief
was out. It was his duty to be out, I sup
pose. The statesman who arrested me
stood me up at the desk and searched me.
He seemed cast down because I didn't pan
out more, and when I. tried to explain that
I was poor, but honest, he ordered me to
shut up. As no forged checks or burglar
tools or stolen bonds were found in my
possession, 1 naturally supposed that I
would be told to depart in peace. I was
mistaken, however. I was "taken down"
and locked up to await something or
Bomebody. In the cell next to me was a
gentleman named the St. Joe Kid. He had
never been in St. Joe in his life and he
was no kid, but be was not captious. He
bade me be of good cheer and keep mum.
fie said a chap who kept mum could hard
ly ever be convicted of anything, especially
if he had fifty dollars to pay a lawyer.
In due time, which means 5 o'clock p. m.
in Philadelphia, I was taken before the
chief. He was very frank with me. While
admitting that I was not the confidence
man he was-looking for, and was therefore
discharged from custody, he advised me
not to come to town any oftener than was
positively necessary, and to be prepared for
trouble at any moment.
My third arrest was due to my own care
lessness. Instead of waiting for night and
darkness, and then disguising myself with
a red wig and a Spanish cloak, I went
walking up Cbestnutrstreet in broad day
light. Pretty soon a strange gentleman
joined me in my travels. A still, small
voice whispered to me that he was a detect
ive, and that I was run to earth at last.
"Will you come quietly, or do you want
a row?" he kindly asked as we came to a
corner.
I told him that I wasn't the man and
that he was only wasting his valuable
time, but he was bigoted and mulish, and
I went along with him to headquarters. I
expected to find the chief in, but he was
out. He bad gone to pay his gas bill or
water tax or something. When the de
tective searched me he seemed to recognize
my toothbrush and to be filled with doubts,
but be braced up and took the chances. I
was placed in a cell with a young man who
was suspected of having cashed a forged
check. A brotherly feeling soon showed
itself, and he led me to the rear of the cell
and whispered in my ear:
"They'll take soft to you and promise
you everything, but don't give anybody
awayl If you can raise thirty dollars I'll
get you a lawyer who can prove an alibi
or get a disagreement of the jury!"
In about two hours 1 was taken before
the chief. He seemed cast down as soon as
he discovered that I was not the bank
sneak be bad been hoping to see, but he
soon rallied and gave me a fatherly talk
The gist of it was that if I put the depart
ment to any more trouble lie d reel obliged
to look into my record.
Business connected with the orphan
obliged me to go into town a month later.
1 wanted to save the detectives trouble and
therefore wore goggles and a slouch hat and
walked with a limp. I was only clear of
the depot when a stranger stepped up and
tendered me a bit of advice. It was to the
effect that I quietly accompany him to
headquarters and save the wear and tear
f handcuffs and medical charges. I ac
cepted the advice in the spirit tendered. I
started out to tell him some funny stories
en route, but he commanded me to shut my
bead, and added that he was on to my
tticks and prepared for them.
On this occasion the chief was in. He
stemed to be expecting me. His face wore
aglad smile until I came to a halt before
km; then the smile disappeared, and he
wanted to know what in blank I meant by
p aying such blankety blank business on
ttat department. I sought to shift the re
sponsibility on to the shoulders of the de
tective, but he indignantly protested.
Tien 1 sought to establish my right under
tbs constitution to enter Philadelphia on
business con.ected with an orphan, but
thjy talked me down. I demanded to be
locked up as a suspicious character until
thty could telegraph around the country
anl find where I was "wanted," but the
chief ordered me to be taken to the front
dor and turned out upon the world in a
snewstorm. Before I went, however, he
drtpped a bint that if 1 was ever pulled in
agiin he'd lay himself out to see that I got
fran five to fifteen years somewhere.
Vhile I have no orphan business now to
call me to the City of Brotherly Love, I
should like to drofin there occasionally to
see how things get along. While I don't
object to being arrested and searched and
recorded, it seems to bother and annoy the
police, and if persisted in, will probably re
sult badly for me. I therefore desire te come
to tome sort of an understanding which
shall be mutually satisfactory to both
sidffi. I'll notify the chief three or four
layt in advance of my coming, or be can
noti!y me what date will be the most con
venient for him to receive me. If he says
he will be in his office from 10 to 12 a, m. or
from I to 4 p. nu. I'll amage to arrive la
town so that I caa be arretted aad takrei
before aim and discharged without laaa of
time to either. It will be uaeleaa tor him
to bold me beyond a day or twa. Moat of
my Crimea have already been atoned for,
and the remainder couldn't be made to stick
if he tried ever ao hard.

BETTEB Not Come. We have received a
letter from Professor DeWltt Thompson,
of Chicago, asking us if this woald be a
good town in which to deliver an illus
trated lecture on the Holy Land. We dont
think aa We have found three or four
people daring our residence here who inci
dentally referred to the Holy Land in con
versation, but we are satisfied that it is an
unknown neighborhood to the great ma
jority. The boys would be sure to get the
name mixed up with boly terror, and
they'd take front seats expecting some
thing as tall as a giraffe and aa big as a
hill to come out and yell. We know about
what takes in this town and what has to
fly after the first act, and we advise the
professor to pass the town about seven
miles away.
No Bonus. We have received an Inquiry
from a man in St. Louis asking what bonus
this town is giving to those who come here
to start in business. No inducement of a
financial nature has yet been held out, nor
is there talk of such action. Those wbo
look the town over are satisfied that it is a
good point. As the tax collector was shot
last week, taxes will be very low this year
and perhaps tor two or three to come.
When the climate doesn't neglect business
it changes twice a day. Land is very cheap.
The two acres for our private graveyard
only cost us four dollars. Those who have
tried agriculture are buying whisky by the
gallon, and that's proof enough of the
profits. Only one saloon has failed during
the past three years, and that was a mis
take. There are many natural advantages
and no drawbacks, and the young and en
ergetic young man who has the determina
tion to succeed can't strike a better town.
That is, of course, be couldn't achieve suc

asked to sit down. He refused and began
an abusive speech. His honor the mayor

the alderman was supposed to be dead.

UnaclentlQo Science.
People who derive their knowledge from
their own conceit are apt to be much surer
of it than those who base it on actual study.
A German schoolmaster, in a school of
children of his own nationality in Wiscon
sin, once said to his class:
"We perceive that the sun rises in exact
ly the opposite quarter in America from
that in which it rises in Germany. What
is east here is west there. This is because
we are on the opposite side of the earth."
It had never occurred to him that it was
he, and not the sun, that was "turned
around."
A French schoolmaster, equally profound
in his own conceit of things, once ex
plained to his pupils:
"In our climate we perceive that snow is
white; but reason and analogy teach us
that in the negro regions it is of a much
darker color." lrouth's Companion.

AN EXTRAORDINARY OFFER.
To All Wanting Employment.
We want Live, energetic and capable
agents in every conntv in the United
States and Canada, to sell a patent ar
ticle of areat merit, on its merits. An
article having a large sale, paying over
100 per cent profit, having no competi
tion, and on which the agent is protected
in the exelusive sale by a deed given for
eacn ana every county ne may. seuuie
from us. With all these advantages to
our agents and the fact that it is an ar
ticle that can be sold to every house
owner, it might not be necessary to
make an "Extraordinary offer" to se
cure trood acrcnts at once, but we have
concluded to make it to show, not only
our confidence in the merits of our in
vention but in its salability by any
agent that will handle it with energy.
Our agents now at work are makmg
from $150 to 1600 a month clear and this
fact makes it safe for us to make our
offer to all who are out of employment.
Any agent that will give our business a
thirty days trial and fail to clear at least
$100 in this time, above all expenses,
can return all goods unsold to ns and
we will refund the money paid for them.
Any agent or general agent who would
like ten or more counties and work
them through sub agents for ninety
days and fail to clear at least $750 above
all expenses, can return all unsold and
get their money back. No other em
ployer of agents ever dared to make
such offers, nor would we if we did not
know that we have agents now making
more than double the amount we guar
anteed; and but two sales a day would
give a profit of over $125 a month, and
that one of our agents took eighteen
orders in one dav. Oar lanre descriptive
circulars explain our offer fully, and
these we wish to send to every one out
of emnlevment who will send us three
one cent stamps for postage. Send at
once and secure the agency in time for
the boom, and go to work on the terms
named in our extraordinary offer. We
would like to have the address of all tho
agents, sewing machine solicitors and
carpenters in the country, and ask any
reader of this paper Who reads this offer
to send us at once the name and address
of such they know. Address at once, or
you will lose the best chance ever of
fered to those out of employment to
make money.

Unwelcome Immigrant.
The recent action of the braigrant
bureau in returning a large lot of con
victs, contract laborers and diseased
paupers, shipped hither, chiefly from
Italy, should be followed by prompt
legislation making it impossible for
tho Chinese to smuggle themselves
into this country across its northern
border or elsewhere. Thomas Bab
ington Macauley, 1667, wrote:
"The day will come when a multi
tude of people, not one-half of whom
have had more than half a breakfast
or expect to have more than half a
dinner, may choose a legislature. I
seriously apprehend that your republic
will be plundered and laid waste by
barbarians in the twentieth century,
as the Roman empire was in thefiflfc."
It is possible that the great Engu-h
historian foresaw that this fair land
of ours was to be au asylum for dis
contented foreigners, for anerohists,
murderers, outcasts and tho Huns' and
Vandals of the Old World? America
has a place and a welcome ior the
brain and brawn and muscle of every
honest man who seeks a home in this
country and who will rest content to
become n American citizen with all
it signifies. In coining to this coun
try, however, our immigrants must
become Am-irieaiihed and adopt
American ideas. Otherwise they can
not bo Americans. . The advent of de
moralizing elements should be stopped
in justico to tho millions of cituens
who are now a part of the great work
