SLEEPING-CAR SPOTTERS.
How They Bring Unwary Conduct
ors to Suddon Grlofc
Not a hundred yards from Grand
Central depot is a saloon largely fre
quented by railroad employes, and es
pecially by sleeping-car conductors,
who, as a rule, indulge in fancy drinks
of first quality and display a very fas
tidious taste. A reporter happened
the other night to stroll into this resort
and ran across an acquaintance whose
occupation consists in shadowing sus
pected conductors.
"You desire, then, to learn about
the secret service on railroads," com
menced the detective, after a conversa
tion. in the course of which such a de
sire had been expressed. "Well, those
sleeping-car conductors we saw just
now in the saloon afford excellent
specimens for observation. The tempta
tion to 'knock down fares is great, yet
it is altogether different now from
what it used to be in the olden times.
Some fifteen or twenty years ago a
conductor's berth was worth quite as
much as a seat in the Stock Exchange
or a sheriff's appointment, but those
flush times have had their day and it
takes a great amount of sharp practice
to beat the vigilance of a spotter.
However, to present a correct idea of
the clever detective work carried on in
this unique line, it would be as well to
give you a thorough insight into the
business.
"Now. then, the Pullman Palace Car
Company on several occasions found it
necessary to engage the services of de
tectives to watch some conductors on
whom suspicion had crystallized, and in
most instances conclusive proof, show
"" inga -systeniatio robbery, was fur
nished. The dishonest employes re
ceived, of course, the 'grand bounce;'
new men were selected to fill the va
cancies, and still it was apparent that
heavy depredations continued to be
carried on. The case could only be
explained in a way exceedingly dispar
aging to human nature, but a detective
who had been assigned on the work
for some length of time and thus
gained considerable experience, based
on close observation, ventured to make
a bold assertion impeaching the hones
ty of nearly all conductors. He sug
gested, consequently, to organize an
elite corps of railroad directives, es
pecially jiickcd to meet the require
ments of that particular service, aud
subject the men to an incessant and
rigid vigilance. Headquarters were
established in this city, and although
the extra running expenses incurred
by the service are quite heavy, there is
no doubt but many thousand dollars
have been saved for the company,
while the thieving propensities of many
employes encounter a severe restraint
by the constant fear of detection and
disgrace.
"You think that long service has
hardened my judgment and I am wrong
in considering the majority of conduct
ors more or less inclined to dishonesty.
Allow me, then, to offer an explana
tion, l am sincerely convinced that a
great many of these fellows would be
trustworthy in any other position, but
somehow the wrong-doing appears
trivial or even pardonable because it is
a coqoration of millionaires which has
to suffer, and the employes claim as an
extenuating circumstance that the bad
example of greedy directors helps to
destroy their feeling of moral responsi
bility. "But, to draw an illustration, let us
imagine a case like this : An elderly
gentleman who in vain has endeavored
to adjust himself into a comfortably
recumbent position on the rigid seat
of an ordinary passenger ear, resolves
to spend a few dollars in order to se
cure a good night's rest. Well, he is
courteously shown an inviting berth in
the sleeper, while a dusky porter eager
ly grabs the passenger s sachel, and
grins complacently at the prospective
tip. The features of the conductor, on
the other hand, assume a strictly business-like
expression, although there
might be reason to question his integri
ty of purpose if one could only catch
his stealthy glance. The fact is our
friend has cleared the way fora 'knock
down fare' bv overlooking the slight
formality of issuing a berth-check to
the new passenger, and he is now med
itating the problem whether every
thing is all right a phrase which in
his vocabulary figures as a synonym
for a 'spotter' being in sight." How
ever, the clever fellow has unfortunate
ly failed to observe the piercing eves
of a detective who is watching the
whole transaction through a small
opening in the curtain of an upper
berth, and you bet-he will get him on
tho list.
. "You must understand the checking
of a sleepcrjs a very complicated affair,
and the detective who escapes making
some sort of a blunder on a long run
has to be pretty well trained. Taking
a coach with fourteen sections, making
double the number of berths, it mar,
however, accommodate a considerably
larger number of passengers, as each
berth often is occupied by two persons.
But the thing most likely to confuse a
novice in our service is whenever the
same berth is sold twice during a single
night. . A passenger, for instance,
leaves the train shortly after midnight,
and another is directly afterward
turned into the vacant berth, merely
allowing the porter sufficient time for
changing sheets, etc. In eventualities
of this kind it depends largely upon she
detective's faculty of familiariziug him
self with the features of each passenger,
and thus at a glance observe aiar change
or augmentation of the total number.
"The life a railroad detective is not
a very enviable one, I can assure you.
He is hired on the express condition
that instructions, however repulsive to
his character, must be strictly com
plied with. Furthermore, he has no
abiding place whatever. The interest
efthe service requires a continuous
shifting, around with the men from one
road to another in order to. reduce as
attach as possible the chances of altract
iag suspicion by the conductors and
railroad employes in general. It is
thus a usual thing for a spotter to travel
through every State in the Union in the
coarse of a few months, and his work
is really harder than most people would
iaaagiae. Naturally he must assume
different roles to meet any emergency
; throw off suspicion. You had him

merchant, missionary, gambler.
ter. man or politician, all ac-
aawtafivtkfarticuir Job o k4
and tiie character of the section throng,
which he travels.
"The general course-is to assign one
agent to each car, thus checking every
passenger, but the entire registration
must be done mentally. The art con
siste in evincing the least possible con
corn, and the spotter should always
have a straight story to tell when b
engages in conversation with other
passengers or "pals ' of the conductor,
it the end of each trip the detective
makes out an elaborate report covering
a certain car and sends it to head
quarters, where it is compared with the
conductor's balance sheet. The spotter
is frequently instructed to pay cash
fares himself, and the most conclusive
proof is derived by holding out tho
totnntinnr half in cnrfi n manner ia
entrap the conductor. When the evi
dence is found to bo of a very dam
aging.character all formalities arc dis
pensed with aud his walking papers
served at once. Nevertheless there
are some shrewd conductors who man
age to delude detection in spite of alt
vigilance. They possess a sort of in
tuitive tact through which the presenco
of a so-called Hawkshaw is revealed.
The conductors, without exception, en
tertain a bitter hatred to the detective
service, and in this age of dynamite as
an agent of redress for supposed griev
ances it is ratlier surprising that no at
tempt has so far been made to blow up
the spotter headquarters. Vengeance
has. though, been executed on several
of our men out in the Territories,
where the public, as a rule, is in sym
pathy with the conductors, and rejoices
in tho sport of hunting down an awk
ward spotter.
"A favorite scheme with the con
ductors is occasionally to turn in a fare
or two in excess of the number really
collected, for the purpose of creating
an impression upon the company that
the spotter's report is untrustworthy
at all times. Now and then the trahs
employes suspect an entirely innocent
person, and it is amusing to behold the
Iiuzzlcd mien of such a passenger when
io encounters the strange looks be
stowed upon him by conductor and
porter. The mutual interest existing
between these functionaries tends to
overcome raco prejudice, and conse
quently they aro both on the
alert "to get on the track of
their sworn enemies. One way, prac
ticed with a view to extending a secret
warning to colleagues on tho different
lines, is to cut a notch in the heel of
the supposed spotter's shoes while the
porter ostensibly subjects them to a
first-class shine. Identification is by
this and other devices mado quite easy,
and the further use of the shown up
detective is seriously impaired.
"The unwary traveler on entering a
palace sleeping-car is likely to become
impressed with the notion that an air
of distinguished respectability is per
vading every visible object alike.
Whether he may cherish this idea to
the cud of his journey, even in case the
passengers arc somewhat mixed, de
pends largely upon the conductor's
talent to manage each party in defer
once to their particular wants. Shady
individuals, professional gamblers, etc.,
aro, of course, not permitted to operate
upon the trains, but a smart conductor
can arrange such things to suit all
parties concerned when no is decently
recompensed, and, consequent!', you
might make an interesting study in the
dubious art of high-staked poker if
you happen to drop into the smoking
saloon of a sleeper after eleven p. m.
"The professional spotter has to keep
an eye on all transactions of this kind;
and his report affords frequently some
very spicy reading. There "arc, besides,
a number of other duties he is required
to perform, such as observing whether
nil tickets and checks are properly can
celed, noting the condition of car and
closets, paying attention to the conduct
of train employes if they should sleep,
drink or smoke or use profane language
off duty. Sometimes it is next to im
possible to catch a conductor, although
suspicion rests upon him, and a detect
ive is then put on to shadow the man
in order to learn his habits, compan
ions aud general conduct in private life.
Through this source very valuable tes
timony is often procured and circum
stantial evidence furnished, showing
the suspected part is a dissolute fellow,
spending much more than his salary
would justify at the gambler's den or
in dissipation. Yes, the spotter system
is a big thing, and you can't afford to
dispense with it as long as sordid greed
for money remains the pivot of human
nature." X. Y. Herald.
ABOUT SUICIDES.
Interesting Statistic Concerning Their
Frequency la England and Wales.
In the paper on "Suicides in England
and Wales in Relation to Age, Sex,
Season and Occupation," by Dr. William
Oglo, M. A., read before the Statistical
Society, the dry bones of statistics are
worked up in a very interesting way.
It is shown by the author that the
deaths registered in the twenty-six
years, 1858-83, in England and Wales
as due to suicide were 42,630. and in
the proportion of seventy-two an
nually per million persons living. The
suicide rate increases rapidly with age
until after middlo life, but in the most
advanced age periods again diminishes.
The maximum rate is in the 55 to 65
years period, when it reaches 251 per
1,000,000 crsons living. At all ago
wriods, with one exception, the male
rate is far higher than the female, and
the difference between them iucr eases
with age. The one exceptional period
is the 15 to 20 years period, when the
female rate is slightly tho lusher.
Taking all ages together, out of equal
numbers living and in the same age
distribution, the male suicides are to
the female suicides at 267 to 100. It is
also shown that the number of suicides
vary very definitely with the seasons,
forming" a regular annual curve, of
which the -miuimum is in December
and the maximum in June! 'The occu-
fmtions in which the suicido rates arc
owest are thoso which imply rough
manual labor, carried on mostly out
of doors, and by men who aro com
parativclv uneducated. The occupa
tions with the highest suicide rates are
those which are sedentary, and followed
by highly educated men, as the learned
professions. The commonest method
of suicide is hanging; then follow in
order drowning, cut or stab, poison,
gunshot. Women, however, select
drowning before hanging, and poison
before cut or stab. The choice of
method is also affected by age, the
young showing a comparative prefer
ence for drowning, poison and gunshot;
and bv occupation, men using prefer
entially the instruments of their drafts;
and by season, drowning being avoided
in the cold months. London Iron.
The base-ball season opens rather
spiritedly. The first reports naturally
come from the sunny South. In a game
played at Charleston, S. C, between
the Charleston and Philadelphia clubs,
the center-fielder of the Charlestons
broke his. knee-cap, which will disable
him for life, and another member of
the same club lost a valuable finger.
As these casualties occurred early in
the engagement it is not surprising to
learn that the visiting club scored a big
victory. Chicago Tribune.
Tbere arc hundreds of people in
every community who are prouder of
being acquainted with a theater mana
ger than they are of their acquaintance
with half a score of clergymen; and
yet there is nothing particularly lova

The most complete collection of these
documents is that in the Boston Public
Library; the next in fullness is found
in the Congressional Library, and the
third large collection is probably owned
by the antiquarian book firm of Anglim
& Co., of this city. These dealers aro
now completing" a full set of public
documents from the Twenty-thiru Con
gress. Only a few volumes are miss

when the collection is finished they es
timate it will contain 60,000 titles. The
price of this library is set at $3,000,
and, as all the volumes which compose
it were printed at the public expense
and distributed gratuitously, this sum
should represent a good profit to mid
dlemen. The documents are of all sizes and
relate to every imaginable topic. Some
are great thick quartos, like the census
volumes or the "Medical History of the

Jiousands of pamphlet reports on small
matters. But it should be noted that
the bills introduced in the Congresses
ire not included in the titles, if they
vcre, the total would be high in the
lundreds of thousands. The largest
single publication ever undertaken by
the Government is the "Tenth Census,"
which, if completed, would fill about
twentv-four large quarto volumes.
Only half of these have been issued or
ever will be, but even as it is the Cen
tennial Census is probably the most
voluminous public document, not count

reports arc superbly gotten up, co
piously illustrated, and accompanied by
maps of tue highest scientific and me
chanical excellence. One special scries
of twenty separate titles relate to the

dition, there arc the Congressional
documents which include the Record,
which alone has now swollen to seven
or ten thick quartos for each Congress;
the great volumes full of tedious and
interminable testimony in committee

smaller committee reports.
The pace of the Government press
has kept up with the rapid progress of
the country in all directions. Accord

2,000; for the next quarter, 6,500; for
the third quarter, 20,000; for the fourth,

runs up to about 4,000 titles annually.

JACHsJON'S CONFIDANT.
A Man -WKn Wan Worthy of the General's
$Cfouildeiic aud Friendship.
"Even so self-reliant a m-m as Gen
eral Jackson," said a member of Con
gress to a reporter, "had his confidant,
whom he freely consulted about every
thing, public as well as private affairs.
This friend was Judge Overton, of Ten
nessee, the General's law partner. When
Judge Overton was on his death-bed he
directed his wife to bring him all tho
letters he had ever received from Jack
son. They had all been preserved,
even the "most unimportant of them.
There were enough to more than nil a
bushel measure, and tbere, in his pres
ence, while awaiting death, Judge
Overton had them burned. Upon be
ing remonstrated against destroying
letters that no doubt contained much
of great value to tho political history
of the country, he replied that they
also contained a great deal about indi
viduals and private matters. General
Jackson was then dead, and his old
partisan was unwilling to run the risk
of having the confidence of his illus
trious friend violated. Judge Overton
remarked, by way of excuse for the de
struction of the letters, that their con
tents related to the private and public
conduct of many people covering the
Seriod of General Jackson's entire pub
c service. He said some of the letters
contained charges which the Viter
had lived to learn were unfoundea and
unjust, and for the valuable public in
formation contained in the correspond
ence it would not do to risk an expo
sure of the personal matters involved.
So the letters were all burned. Wash

A STRANGE DREAM.
Oetrettor Haw la His Steea a)
What Transpired the Xext Day.
They were talking about fortune
tellers, clairvoyants and such at de
tective headquarters the other day when
a citizen who was present said:
"No doubt they hit the nail on the
head now and then, but I prefer to trust
to d reams."
At this there was a general laugh,
but his face was very serious as he con
tinued: "Do any of you remember the so
called Weber case which happened
about twelve years ago on the Cleve
land & Pittsburgh road? No? Well. 1
had a dream in connection with that
case which may interest you. I stopped
one night at Cleveland before talcing
the train for Pittsburgh. I slept
soundly until after midnight and then I
had a strange dream. I thought I had
taken the train. In the hmiui car was
a man about thirty years of ag.i and a
woman tiftetiii years older. They
were man ami wife. He was a dissipated-looking
fellow, while she was a
well-preserved woman with many
natural graces and evidently in fear ot
htm. That is he never addressed her
except in a rough, petulant tone, aud
whenever he spoke she drew away as
if fearful of a bloxv.
"I dreamed that I had watched them
for an hour or two when a waiter en
tered the cor and announo.td supper.
It was just growing dark, aud it was u
winter's evening. I pass.nl to the dining-car
aloue, aud had finished my
meal and was on my way back when I
met the pair. Five minutes later the
report went through the train that the
wife had fallen from the platform of
the dining-car as the couple were about
to pass in. The train was stopped and
backed up, and after a long hunt her
body was found on the rocks at tho
foot of an embankment, bruised, bleed
ing and lifeless. The man told a very
plausible story of how the accident oc
curred, but tho effort he made to ap
pear agitated and broken up convinced
me that he was her murderer. He left
the train at the first station to have the
poor mangled remains cared for and I
saw him no more. He w:is a tall, dark
eyed man, with black hair, a scar ou
his cheek, and wore a diamond pin.
He had eiifT.hiitfmw with n V mi.
Tgraved on them, and there was a long
and bloodv scratch on the back of the
right hand.
"Now, then, on the aftoruoim of tho
next day I took the train for Pitts
bugh, aud the first people I saw in the
parlor car as I entered were tho two
-of whom I had dreamed. Both looked
at me with a start of surprise, ami I'm
telling you tho solemn truth that tho
man turned pale as I looked into his
eyes. You are prepared to anticipate
what followed, but there were some
changes from my dream. When sup
per was announced I did not go on in
advance, but waited for the couple to
precede me. The man looked sharply
at me as they went out. but I was busy
with -a newspaper, as if I did not in
tend to go in to supper. They were
qo sooner out than I followed. I was
only ten feet behind them as they
passed out on the platform of the car
ahead, and as I opened the door there
was a shriek from the darkness, and
the man, standing aloue on the plat
form, shouted at me:
" Great God ! but my wife has fallen
off the platform!1
"The train was stopped, backed up,
and we found the poor body as I had
dreamed. It was placed in the bar-
gage-car, and as the husband bent over
it, seeming to try his best to shed tears,
I boldly denounced him.
" 'You arc her murderer!' I ex
claimed. 'You pushed her off the
platform! Look at that scratch 011 jtiur
hand where she caught at you in a'vain
effort to save herself ! You threw her
to her death!'
"He looked at me with an expres
sion of terror aud dismay, but could
not utter a word. I picked up his un
resisting haiil and looked at his cuff
button. It was marked with a 'W.'
At the next station he was placed un
der arrest for murder. His name was
William Weber, of St. Louis. Ho
neither denied nor affirmed his guilt,
but he had no sooner been locked up
than I saw I had gotten myself into a
box. I was to be detained as a wit
ness, and the only straight testimony
against him was a dream. Before the
sheriff could get hold of me I had
skipped the neighborhood, and in a
day or two, as I afterwards learned,
Weber was set at libertv and went his
way, the body having been buried in
the village grave-yard. It was as clear
a case of murder as was ever known,
and hail things been managed right at
first he would probably have confessed
his guilt." Detroit Free Press.
A CURIOUS BANK.
The Treasure Trovo Found by a Pennsyl
vania Carpenter.
Some years ago, an old wooden
bridge spanned the Schuylkill river at
the foot of Penn street, Reading, Pa.
In the course of time a more substan
tial structure was deemed necessary,
ami the timbers of the old bridge were
carefully taken apart, and reserved fyr
use in repairing and rebuilding the
smaller t-qyinty bridges. While pre
paring some of this old timber for its
new use, a few days ago, it became
necessary to saw off several feot from
a heavy piece, which was to be used as
a girder in a small bridge under con
templation. When the end portion
dropped to the ground, the workman
was astonished to hear a jiiudinsr sound
aj of gold and silver coin. A sum
mons 01 sucn good omen insured
a speedy investigation, which re
sulted "in finding eagles, half
eagles, silver dollars, halves and
quarters mixed together in careless
confusion. The source of supply was
found in a section about eighteen inches
in length and five inches deep, which
had been hollowed out of tho log with
auger and chisel. An inch-thick cover
had been fitted over tho openinsr so
cleverly and sealed with so much care
that detection, other thau accidental,
was hardly possible. The treasure had
been confined in a home-knit woolen
stocking, and as the saw cut off the toe,
a part of the contents was discharged.
The value of the deposit, though re
ported to be considerable, was not
made public. The money was probably
hidden away a number of years ago, as
specimens of three, five, ten, twenty
five and fifty cent scrip, nicely folded
up in a piece of writing paper, were
among the contents. Not a line indi
cated the ownership. The question of
possession is consequently divided as to
whether it should go to the workman
who discovered It, tha owner of the
timber, or the county. The finder prob
ably inclines to the first suggestion.

Elenty of rats and mice, but I'd rather
ave the vermin running over me in
my sleep than to keep a cat aboard, as
many vessels do. Outside of my hatred
for cats I didn't like the looks of the
man. He was a rough-looking fellow
with a cock eye and two or three front
teeth hanging out to windward,
and if I'd have wanted some one to do
a bit of dirty work I'd have picked thii
chap from among a thousand. I sent
him off in a hurry, as you may guess,
but as he reached the wharf he turned
the cat loose and cried out:
" 'My curses on the ship and crew
forever!'
"The feline might have run into the
elevator, but she didn't. She just
scrambled right aboard of us, and in a
whisk was out of sight down the main
hatch. Some of the men looked a bit
serious, and some treated the matter
as a joke, and just before night we were
towed out and had a fair wind to lay
our course. The hatches were all bat
tered down, of course, and nobody
seemed to have given a thought to the
cat while getting out of the harbor. It
ras as fine a June night as you ever
saw, with a moon so oright that you
could see a vessel a mile away, and a
breeze to send us along at about five
miles an hour.
"Well, we had mado every thing ship
shape, and had supper, when the black
cat was suddenly seen on the end of
the jibboom. She was looking inboard
at us, her hair on end and ner eyes
blazing. I brought up my revolver to
bave a shot at her, but just as I was
about to pull trigger the cat ycowled
out in a dismal manner, and down came
the peak of the mainsail, the halyards
showing as if they had been cut clean
across with a sharp knife. They were
new, stout ropes, and nobody could say
they had been broken by any sudden
strain. We had to reeve new ones, and
when this job was finished I went for
ward to put a bullet into that cat's
head. She set up a dismal yeowling,
and as I pulled trigger down came the
whole foresail, both throat and peak
halliards having parted. I hoped! had
killed the black witch, but when the
smoke lifted we saw her in the same
place, safe and sound. Every man
aboard agreed that the halliards had
been cut with a knife, and as the men
passed them from hand to hand they
began to mutter against me for trying
to uring about a calamity by seeking
the cars life.
"By the time we had the foresail up
again the cat had disappeared, going
no one knew whither, and the weather
had suddenly changed until the moon
was overcast and the breeze w:is a
third stronger. I never saw that craft
steer as she did that night. She'd yaw
aud swing and go wild in spite of all
the best sailor aboard could do. By
the time wo were off Waukcgan there
was a smart sea on and a nasty look
all around. The wind gradually liaulei)
into the northeast and we had to go in
stays and make long boards dead to the
east and then make our gain on the
other leg as we ran to the northwest.
Every time we went in stays the
schooner acted like a balky colt, just
barely keeping us out of irons, anil the
ugly cross sea banged her about until
every thing groaned. We were about
to go iu stays for our board to the
northwest and the men were aloft to
care for the topsails when the Gordon
slipped into a hollow ami rolled port
and starboard like a stuck whale trying
to get rid of a harpoon. There was a
loud squall from the cat, which
creature, it appears, was in the main
mast crosstrees, a terrible scream from
the sailor, and as the Gordon rolled to
starboard he was Hung clear of her side
by thirty feet and went down like a
stone.
"By this time the crew were so
worked up that nobody would turn in,
and every man seemed to be momen
tarily expecting some new disaster.
It came Ivfore midnight. The wind
hauled dead to the north and grew
stronger, ami as we came about from
a run to the northwest the Gordon
missed her stays, was taken Hat aback,
and several calamities followed. Three
or four seas boarded us and swept the
decks, the fore boom jibed and crushed
a sailor's skull, and jib and outer jib
whippedJoose, and went sailing away
with tnewmu. We came within ,anJ
ace 01 uemgiiuismasteu, lor the ,men
cowered dow&in abject terror, ahiMho
mate and myself, had the whole work
on our hands. We-finally gothcr head
off, and ratehed awayJfor the Michigan
shore, but before daylight 'she sprang
a leak, and we made Grand Haven only
by the skin of our,teeth, with our cargo
damaged more than three thousand
dollars. From an hour past Injdnight
to broad day-light that inferifaV cat
kept up ateady walk between tlifljlwo
masts otnhe triantic stay, and nowsiid
4t U2 1 1 .& 11 L - I
then -shov would titter a veil

'Taken altogether vc suffered a loss
of over four thousand dollars and lost
a life, and it was all on account of that
cock-eyafl man and his bhick cat.No
sooner had we got into porfthan
everybody except the mate ran'away,
and the cat leaped to the dock with a
farewell yeowl and took refuge in a
pile of lumber. The storr of our mis
haps got noised around,and the Gor
don had to be laid upfor the rest of the
tcason for want of men to 'work her."

PERFECT PHILOSOPHY.
How at Hotel Clerk Subdues 11U Wicked
and Terrible Temper.
I stopped at a country hotel in Ar
kansaw some time ago," said a well
known traveling man, "and, behind the
clerk's desk, I noticed a rope hanging
from a rafter. The rope had a knot on
the lower end, and at lirst I thought
that it must be used for lynching pur
poses. While I was pondering, a man
came down stairs, approached the
clerk's desk and said:
"'Why in thunder didn't you send
that pitcher of water to my room? I
ought to maul you.'
"The clerk took the end of the rope
in his mouth, chewed it a moment or so
and. in a cordial voice replied:
"II was an oversight, my dear sir.
Will attend to it at once.
-A few moments later another man
came up and said:
" '1 want to know if I am to have a
fire in my room? If you don't intend
to have one made, say so, and I'll waltz
you all over this house.'
"The clerk seized the ropo again
and chewed it. Then, turning to the
frowning man, he replied: '1011 must
realty pardon me, sir. 1 will go up
and make the tire myself.'
" 'What astrange man your clerk is,'
I said to the proprietor of the hotel.
L" 'He is a great philosopher,' the pro
prietor replied. 'Do you know what
lie would have done had he not
chewed that rope?'
"'No.'
"'Well, he would have shot those
men. When a man gets mad he grits
bis teeth, and then iinding no satisfac
tion, he adopts violent means. Some
time ago a fellow, just for mischief,
slipped behind the desk and cut the
rope; and then, before the clerk had
noticed his loss, the fellow made some
complaint. The clerk wheeled around.
grasped the air, and then in a rage
jumped over the desk, seized the of
fender aud almost killed him.'
" Hc is a remarkable man.'
'"The most consistent and docile
man in the world so long as his rope is
iu working order. Some time ago tha
proprietor of a large hotel came here,
and after witnessing a few perform
ances, offered the clerk a large salary
to leave ine and go with him, but I
raised his salary ana succeeded in hold
ing him. Look at him; got the rope
in nis Mouth again. Do you see how
much of the rope is wound above?
.Well, as sooa as he ehews the knot off
-the end lie lets down the rope and ties
another knot, Within the past six
months ho has worn out three- sets of
teeth. See that man with that small
grip sack? He is a dentist and has
eowe around to work on the clerk's
teat. 1M tall you what's a fact, . that

doctors that Scrofula might be the cause
of the trouble. We procured a bottle of

worked wonders, for, in a short time, he
