preparation Known as Mecca Compound.
Letters from nearly e\ery state In the
un'on show how widely It Is scattered by
the handx of Its friends. This IB the more
remarkable In vlow of the fact that It Is a
notmd\ertlscd remedy , and the testimonials
come unsolicited. Surely no discovery In
the present age has done more to relieve
the sufferings of the altllcted than thle
wonder worker , and It calls forth the grati
tude of many a sufferer. The following let

It Is appreciated so far a\\ay from home :

pleasure to bear testimony to the \aluo ol
your Mecca Compound. My little boy , J
years of ago , while playing near a large
pan of hot ashes stumbled backward and
fell , with his naked back across the pan
Ho was badly burned before ho could gel
up , the coalp even sticking to his skin
The burn was about four Inches wide ant
twelve Inches long. The very best rem-
cdlcs were administered by the physician
but the child suffered Intensely. A frlem'
visiting our family telegraphed to his home
In North Carolina for a Jar of your Mecct
Compound. Wo applied It as teen as II
came , and , though the child was stlfl suffer
Ing , In a few minutes ho was qulto easy
Wo used tv/o pounds on the burn , and Ir
ten days he was walking about the place
and now the scar Is wearing away. I shnl

As a result of some cf the recent prosecu
tions that have been Instltutid against local
milkmen by Milk Inspector Flemmlng , a
number of the dairymen have iletcunlned to
advertise nothing but skimmed milk for ale.
Cards will be placed upon thilr wagons today
ad\slng ! the public of this fact. Whether
It will he sold at a reduced prlca or whether
It will really be skimmed milk will ba a
matter to be settled by the milkmen and
their customers. At any rate , If the prolific
milk-producing bossies eat too much dewey
griss and yield milk that does not come up
o the legal standard their owners will not
ave to pay a $25 fine for violation of the
tale law. The milk dealers balleve that
hey can evade the state law by such a
: ourse until they can arrange to have what
hey bsllevo to bo honest and competent tests
iiadc. They will make a demand upon the
; overnor for Flemmlng's removal. Soliciting
irlbery and blackmail will be among the
erlous charges that he will have to fice.

W. G. D. Mercer , the United States Inspec
tor , was In the city yesterday , on his way from
Sioux City to Chicago. Mention was made
n yesterday's Bee dispatches of the arrest
of Dr. H. C. Hunter at Sioux City on the
charge of using the malls for the purpose ol
booming an establishment for performing
criminal operations upon unfortunate women ,
Mercer considers the case one of the best he
has e\cr worked up. For a year and a hall
he has been collecting Information with refer
ence to Hunter's scheme , which has beer
operated all over western Iowa. Clrcuhrt
were sent to country doctors , offering them
$25 commission for all cases they sent to hit
"hospltil. "
Mercer secured the services of a woman
detective. He drew up letters to Hunter ,
which were copied by the woman and sen )
through the malls. She masqueraded as o
woman In trouble , and Hunter fell Into the
trap , Implicating himself by means of his
written statements In numerous criminal act *
"As these acts are unlawful , " said ho Irene
ono of the letters , "I shall have to charg <
> ou a fee which may seem to you to be ev
orbltant. " Two hundred dollars was named
as the price she would have to pay , and foi
that sum he would guarantee her a safe re
turn home after ten days and Immunity
from prosecution. He said he had bett
treating cases of this kind for five years
many of his patients being girls 17 and li
years of age.
The woman detective carried out her pan
of the case to perfection. Mercer went t (
the room where the operation was tc be per
formed and had to show Hunter the $200 bi >
fore business could be commenced. Th'
woman was laid out upon the table anc
Hunter went to work In the most dellberati
way to get his tools In shape. Just befori
hs was ready to commence he- turned hii
back for a moment , and when he turned bad
found himself gazing down the barrel of My-
cer's revolver. Quick as a flash the wonlar
Jumped from the operating table , and befon
Hunter fully realized what had happened shi
had the handcuffs securely fastened nrour , ;
his wrists.
Inspector Mercer has consulted cmlnen
specialists with a view to fortifying hlmsel
against any technicalities that may be re
sorted to , and says he Is prepared to sl-ov
that Hunter has been guilty of deilbjrati
murder In cases almost without number
Unfortunately the United States liws ca ;
only be used In prosecuting on the on
charge , of using the malls for fraudulen
purposes , and the maximum penalty lor thl
crime is a fine of $1SOO and a three ytan
term In the penitentiary , but by the time thl
case Is disposed of the matUr will In al
probability bo further prosecuted In the flat
courts.

Judge /Mllcr I.ravoii
Judge S. Adler , who came to Council
Bluffs about a month ago , courted a young
lady of 32 summers five days and then
married her , has left the city with his wife
and nothing has been heard from them for
a week. He claimed to ha\e been Judge
of some court In Baltimore and to have
amassed n tremendous fortune , which en
abled him to bc'stow upon his bonny bride
check for $50.000 as a wedding gift. A
clegram was sent to parties In Baltimore
iy some of the members of the local bar
nil It was found that no man of the name
f Adler had been known In Baltimore. So
nr as can be learned , none of the local
anks have e\er been called upon to cash
he $50.000 check , and altogether there Is
n air of mystery about Judge Adler and his
flairs that has r.ot yet been dispelled. Ills
rlcnds claim that he has merely gone off on
. visit and will return before long , but
ome doubt Is thrown over their hopes by
he fact of the Judge having worked quite
number of his friends for sums of cash
ggregatlng several hundred dollars before
going away. A letter has been sent to
'rete , Neb. , where he Is suppose 1 to have
gone , and It Is hoped that an answer will
hrow some light on the question of his
thereabouts today or tomorrow. Ills rooms

Saturday afternoon he decided to take a

Dohany barn on Bryant street and engaged
a rig. After the ride he sent the rig back
o the stable In care of a messenger boy ,
sending word to the proprietor that Stewart
owed him some money and would pay for
he rig. On looking the matter up the
owner of the horse found that Stewart had
gl\en no one authority to hire rigs at his
xpense. An Information was filed In the
city clerk's office and Bishop was arrested
yesterday. It has been found since then
that Bishop tried the same dodge at the
Bryant house opposite the police station ,
where ho had been stopping during the

A correspondent of-Uw St. Louis Globe-
democrat discovered. In. an obscure corner
f Albuquerque , N. M. , a man who partlcl-
ated In the famous Impeachment trial of
President Andy Johnson , and whose vote
urned the scales of Justice In favor of the
resident. The man was Edmund 0. Ross ,
Jnlted States senator from Kansas from
SC3 to 1871.
Mr , Ross Is a printer and publisher and
, vas found with printer's stick In hand
Illgently setting type. Gray-haired and
pare of bujld , there was nothing In the
ppcarance of the man to Indicate that he
vas a participant In one of the most mem-
rablo scenes In American history.
In sketching the leading Incidents of his
Ife Mr. Ross graphically described the clos-
ng scenes In the Impeachment trial. He
iald : "President Johnson was obstinately
tent upon the carrying out of what he called
ils policy , In which many found convincing
iroof of his dlslojalty , b.it from the very
Irst I was persuaded that there was noth-
ng In his conduct Justifying the extreme
neasurcs proposed by the advocates of 1m-
leachment , which , If carried , would make
. political pariah of the president. The rer-
onal humiliation of the president was no
Ight matter , but It seemed to me that the
cgradatlon of the olllco he held was of far
greater Importance * that , If accomplished ,
ho presidency , ceasing to bi > a co-crdlnate
ranch of the gove'n'.cn' , "vould become
ho pliant tool of congress ; that In the face
if the Increase of legislative power thus
irepared for , the Judiciary would also be
ubordlnated In turn , and that what was
: ontemplated was the transformation of our
nlsely balanced government Into a congres-
lonal autocracy. Moreover , It was proposed
iy the polltcal cabal , then all-powerful lu
iVashlngton , to rep'ace Johnson with Wade
hould their plans succeed , and I was well
nough acquainted with the latter to know
hat the Impetuosity , bigotry and unreason-
.ng . hatreds that helped to make him a
power In the senate would In all probability
make him ono of the worst of executives.
And so , carefully considering all these facts ,
could not help regarding the proposed Im
peachment as a blunder worse than a crime
: ind decision as to how my own vote should
be cast was , therefore , taken without de-
y. "
"The president's Impeachment was made a
party question from the first , was it not ? "
"Such , to the deep regret of those who de-
Ircd the free exercise of a dispassionate
udgmont , was unfortunately the case. ' In
he houte every republican save one voted for
he adoption of the articles of Impeachment
hlle every democratic member voted against
hem , and the benate and public were slinrplj
'Ivlded on the same partisan line * .
The Indictment of the president hav-
ng been adopted by the house ,
amo to the senate sitting as a high
court of Impeachment. Here , with due re-
sard for the order , .dignity anJ solemnity of
he occasion , testimony v\as \ taken , arguments
hcardtand a day set fpr a vote. During the
ew days' recess between the closing of the
hearing and the tltno appointed for a vote
excitement at Waslnngt6n was at fever heat.
The clly was crowded with people from all
parts of the country1 , attracted to the capital
by Interest In the trjal and the hope of se
curing office phould khe Removal of the presl-
Jent be effected. To secure this result the
otes of two-thirds of the fifty-four senators ,
ill of whom were present , would be neces
sary. It became kno\vn \ during the rccest
that eighteen senators'were certain to vote
'or ' acquittal. A single accession to their
ranks would defeat 'impeachment , and It
was sought by offers of money and patronage
as well as Intimidation and threats of vlo-
ence , to bring all doubtful senators Into
Ine for conviction. In some cases , when
all these things failed , vandal was made
use of as a weapon of coercion , but the re
sult showed how sadly three who employed
these weapons had mistaken their Intended
victims. "
"Had you given It out how you Intended
to vote ? "
"No , but my silence aroused the appre
hensions of the advocates of Impeachment ,
and on May 14 , 1868 , the evening before the
vote was to be taken , I received a telegram
signed by D. R. Anthony and 1,000 other
Kansas republicans which stated that Kan
sas had heard the evidence and demanded
the conviction of the president. I at once
replied that I did not recognize their de
mand , that I should vote either for or
against conviction. ,1 had taken , I said ,
an oath to do Impartial Justice according
to the constitution and laws , and trusted
that I should have the courage and honesty
to vote according to the dictates of my Judg
ment and for the highest good of the coun
try. I had written and signed this mes
sage and It was lying on the table before
me when General Thomas Ewlng , who was
ono of my warmest personal friends , callec
upon me and asked how the vote was golnf
to go on the morrow. I handel him tin
dispatch I had Just written and told bin
I held the decision of the question In mj
hands , but that no living soul should knov
what my vote was going to bo until It wai
cast on the following day. "
"The events on May 15 , ! SOS , " he wsnt on
"have long been a part of history , but thi
scene comes back to me as though It wen
a happening of yesterday. When the sen
ate came to order Just before noon everj
senator was In his seat ; the house had ad
Journed to permit the attendance of Us
members ; the president's cabinet and coun
sel , and the entire diplomatic corps wen
present , and the gallerlts were thronged bj
a brilliant and eager nudlencc. Chief Jus
tice Chase , who had presided over the trla
from the beginning , called the court , tc
order. Instantly a profound stillness setclci
upon the great assemblage , and when tin
voting began a pin's fall could have be r
heard In any part of the room. The names
of the senato.-s were called In alphabetlca
order , and each gave his response standlnj
at his desk. It was well known what tin
first doz3n responses would be , but whei
the name of Senator Fessenden was called
subdued whispering , token of an Incrcaset
Interest , was heard on every hand. In th <
senate caucus a few days b'fore Senator Fes
senden had argued with earnestness am
power against the impeachment of the presl
dent , and since then unexampled effort !
had taen made by members of the party o
which he had long been an honored leadei
to Induce him to favornconvlctlon all with
out effort. His pale fnco and the tense line :
about his mouth sliowwl that he saw clear ) ]
the personal consequences of the step hi
was about to take , , but In a firm voice hi
voted against conviction , thus Invoking thi
political martyrdom tliat put a sudden perloc
to an Illustrious career and soon drove bin
to his grave. ' ' "
"Senator Fowler pf Tennessee , one of thi
youngest members ot tile senate , was the nex
to vote. He was a radical republican and per
sonally unfriendly ( o the president , but dli
not feel that the case against the latter hai
been proved , and h also voted 'Not guilty.
After this the name of Senator Grimes o
Iowa was called by theichlef justice. Strlckei
with a fatal illnessi this venerable statesmai
had come from a sick , bed at the Immlnen
risk of his life to record his vote , and had t
be supported on cltlierflldo by friends as h
rose to his feet. Ills vote was against con
vlctlon , and It was , the , last Important publl
act of a noble career. enator Henderson o
Missouri was the next antl-lmpeachlng repub
llcan to cast his vote , and then the call wen
on down the alphabet , with responses o
'Guilty' from the republican senators , untl
my own name was called , and I knew tha
the decisive moment of my life had come.
"The vote , you will remember , was beln
taken on the eleventh and last article of Im
peachment. A majority of the senate ha
ordered that a vote should not be taken o
the first article In Us order , for the reaso
that two prominent republican senators ha
announced In caucus that they could not vet
for the conviction of the president on th
charge contained In that article , but would s
vote on others. Accordingly , the vote wa
being taken on the eleventh article or cour
in the Indictment. When I arose to my fei
In response to the Inquiry of the chief Justle
ai to how I should vote under thU utlcli
silence again settled over the great audience ,
whose Interest , a trifle dulled by the monotony
ot the last dozen responses , the nature of
which had been well Known for many weeks ,
had begun to stir restlessly and break here
and there Into low bits ot conversation , The
stillness In the senate chamber following this
momentary relaxation was not unlike that
which prevails on the prairie on n windless
summer afternoon , It was so Intense as to
be almost oppressive , and , the focus toward
which a thousand pairs of eyes were turned ,
no one felt Its Influence more than I. StandIng -
Ing at my desk and facing the chief Justice ,
It Is the simple truth to say that I caw yawnIng -
Ing before me an open grave , In which were
about to be burled friends , position , the hopes
of future honors and the other things that
men prize most In life. The most stolid
would have been awed and thrilled by the
heavy responsibility circumstances , without
my seeking , had placed upon my shoulders ,
and I am not ashamed to confess that at first
my voice trembled and sank to nervous
whisper. In an Instant , however , self-control
returned , and when distant senators called
for a repetition of my answer the voice In
which I uttered the words 'Not guilty'
reached all parts of the chamber.
"The chief Justice promptly checked the
onfuslon which followed the casting of my
vvn vote , and then the call went on down
le alphabet. Two additional republlcin
otcs , those of Senators Trumbull and Van
v'lnhle , were cast for acquittal , and , as the
id was reached , the chief Justice announced
he president's acquittal of the charges con-
allied In the eleventh article. Alter this
IB court adjourned for ten days , when
otes were haJ on the second and third
rtlclcs , but the result was the same , and
ho remaining eight articles were never put
o the test of a vet ; . The die was cast be-
end recall , and the greatest trial of a
entury had ended In a triumph for the
orm of Government wisely fashioned by the
athers of the republic. "
"Your foiccast of the personal consequences
f your own vote did not prove a mistaken
nc ? " I asked.
No. My own state , which was radically
epubllcan , turned against mo almost to a
ian. I was burned In effigy by members of
iy old regiment , and Mormed with abuse
nd anathemas. Nothing , Indeed , was left
ndono that could tend to wreck my future ,
had anticipated all this , but to attacks
pen my private honor I made such reply
s dignity and self-respect would permit.
Defending my course on the floor of the
enate I declared t'nat I could not , with the
ght before me , declare the president guilty
f high crimes and misdemeanors on mere
Ifferences of governmental policy , and I
hallenged my detractors to appear before
ho senate and exhibit evidence showing
hat I had been Influenced by mercenary
r corrupt motives to vote as I did. But not
i j of them ever saw fit to take up this
hallenge , and , to my thinking , thirty years
f honorable poverty have given final answer
o their charge. . Beyond tills , however , I
vas content to leave the Justification of my
lotlves to the EOber bc-cond thought of the
atlon , and It Is no mean satisfaction to
now that many of those who In 186S were
nest bitter and unreasoning In their anl-
noslty now confirm without reserve the
.ltdom . and Justice of the course I then saw
t to take. "
I retired from the senate In 1871 and be-
aine the editor and proprietor of a weekly
aper In Coffeyvllle , Kan. In 1873 I bc-
ame connected with t1i Liwrence Journal ,
nd a llttlo later established tlie Lawrence
tandard , which I movc-d to Leavenworth In
875. I opposed Grant's second election to
he presidency In 1S72 , and have ever since
cted with the democratic party. The Stand-
rd did not prove a succes-R , and after a
eng fight against odds I left Kansas for
Vew Mexico. I was emplojcd as a printer
n the Albuquerque Democrat , when , In 1885 ,
'resident Cleveland appointed me governor
f New Mexico , which office I held for four
cflrs. After that I was for a time editor
f the Doming Headlight , but finally returned
o Albuquerque , where I shall probably end
ny days. Fortune lias dealt me a good
nany hard blows , but I have always had
ny trade and a clear conscience to sustain
IH- and do not complain. "
"Counting all It cost you , senator , " I
asked In conclusion , "havo you ever ren
grctted your course In the Johnson trial ? "
"Not for an instant , " was the prompt ro
ily. "Tho principal article In the Impeach
ment of the president was the removal of
Secretary Stanton In defiance of the tenure-
f-offlco act , a measure which , when It first
came from congress , Stanton himself had
tamped as unconstitutional. With the ac
cession of Grant tSie act fell Into desuetude ,
ind a few years later a republican benate
roted for Its repeal. I contend there was
10 vital principle In an act that could thus
> o neglected with Impunity by republican
uccehsors of Johnson and repealed by a re
publican senate. By the votes of the sena-
ors who opposed Impeachment a vicious
precedent was avoided and the country saved
'rom a fatal blunder. "
WHERE COIN IS KEPT.
Hulk of the Iliilllon Stored In the National
Trcnsury.
The man who escorts strangers through
the vaults of the national treasury In Wash-
ngton exhibits an amazing grasp of big
figures. He knows the breadth , depth and
circumference of the nation's bullion and
, s thoroughly at homo In reeling off millions
n statistics. To a correspondent ot the
Chicago Times-Herald he gave these Inter
esting facts regarding the vaults and their
contents :
There are In all seven vaults In the treas-
ivry , and the total amount of gold , sliver
notes and bonds In them Is nearly $800,000-
000. But It Is "the big silver vault" thai
all the visitors want to see. Thpy have
Hoard of It and Ils dimensions , and they an
curious to behold It with their own eyes.
"Great Jehosophat ! " exclaimed a stranger
with bulg.ng eyes , as he stood at the dooi
to this vault ; can't be possible all that stufl
In there Is silver ? Why , It Is as big as i
meeting house. "
"Yes , It's all silver , " replied the accom
modatlng and Intelligent guide. "This blf
vault occupies all the space under the north
ern court yard of the treasury buildng. Hi
exact measurement Is 89 feet long , 51 fee
wide and 12 feet high. Behind the Iroi
grating you see wooden boxes. They an
all full of silver $2,000 In each box. Th <
lioxea are piled all around the eJgcs , and tr
the middle are bags of silver piled In a greai
heap. We have lots of trouble with thh
silver. The boxes burst and the bags ge
rotten , and then when a new administrator
comes In wo have to weigh It all. It takei
us about three months to do the Job , and It' :
dreadful hard work. "
'Does this vault contain all ot Uncle Sam'i
silver ? " asked the stranger.
"Oh , no , bess ! you , no , " responded thi
guide. "Here we have only $103,240,000 It
coined dollars. That Is less than n fifth o
all the silver the government owns. Ii
vault No. 2 you passed that on your way li
we have $48,000,000. In smaller vaults wi
hfve a few million more. We never co-iU
find space for all Uncle Sam's silver here
We are frightfully crowded as It Is. In all
we have here 160,000,000 or 170,000,000 o
silver dollars. The remainder of the 370,000 ,
000 , of coined dollars owned by the goven
ment Is In the subtreasurles at New York
Chicago and other cities. "
"You say Uncle Sam has more than 500 ,
000,000 of silver dollars on hand ? "
'Yes , sir. Standard dollars , 370,000,000 , am
silver bullion enough to make 178,000,001
more ; grand total , $548,000,000. "
"But there must bo a lot of silver dollar
In circulation ? " asked the stranger.
"Not as many as you would think , " re
piled the guide. We have coined 422,000,00) )
of these dollars , and the number In clrcula
tlon Is now only 63,000,000. The people don'
seem to want 'em. We've done everythlni
we could to Induce the people to take th
standard dollar. Congress has appropriate !
money nearly every year to enable the sccre
tary ot the treasury to send out silver dollar
In exchange for other money without expens
to the people , but It doesn't seem to make an ;
difference. They don't go. Why , the numbe
of standard dollars In circulation now I
much smaller than It was a few years age
Instead of Inducing the people to take mor
of the dollars , they have actually been send
Ing them back to us. "
"Do you know how much the govern
ment has paid out for silver ? " asked th
stranger ,
"To a cent , " replied the guide , consul )
Ing a little note book which ho drew fror
his pocket. "We have bought C03.003.81
fine ounces , for which we have paid $516 ,
623,011. That Is an awful lot of money. "
"And how much Is that silver actuall
worth today ? " persisted the stranger.
The guide used his lead pencil ( or a me
ment and then replied :
"Just $331,925.683. The net loss to th
government on Us silver purchaneu nas bee
$181,697,923 "
At this the visitors stopped lookln
through the Iron grating nt the boxes of
silver , and tuincd thur faces toward the
guide.
"You find It pretty difficult to undetslnmJ
such big figure ; , don't you ? " continued the
official ; "every onu docs. Wo rau't urn-
cclvc a million very well. It's too big for
us. I'vo thought a good deal about this
while taking visitors to sco the vaults and
I bcllevo 1 can help you to appreciate what
a million Is.
By this time every nmn and woman In
the crowd was listening Intently to what
the guide had to tiny ,
"Now , If you have seventeen of thrsr
silver dollars , " ho went on , "jou cnn easily
hold them In jour hand. They weigh Jnt
about a pocnd. But If you have $1,000
> ou will have about all you could carry , or
sixty pounds' weight. Now , suppobu Instead
of a thousand silver dollars you have a mil
lion. That means thirty tous of silver To
haul It through the smooth streets ot Wash
ington In our big treasury wagons would trtko
twelve or fifteen wagons. Now , do jou
grasp what a million means ? And then rp-
mcmber that Undo Sam has 54S.OOO.OOO of
silver.
"Let us look ot It In another way TaKe
eight silver dollars and place them In a
row on the table , fiat , rim to rim. Tncywl'l '
reach Just a foot. If you ha\o n thousand
placed In the same way they will reach 125
feet. Itut suppose jou have n million.
Then they will make n white stre-ak more
than twenty-three and one-half miles long
"Having now secured a better appreci
ation of the magnitude of a million , " the
guide continued , "let mo give you some
figures 1 have made at odd moments about
the 51S.OOO.OOO silver dollars Uncle Sam has
In these and his other vaults the silver
that he has paid out his good money for
and which the people do not want.
"If nil of these dollars were placed rim to
rim , fiat , they would reach nearly 13,000
nillca.
"They would cover all the spice between
the rails on a railway line clear across the
state ot Iowa , a dlstanca of 350 miles.
"Tho weight of all Uncle Sam's silver Is
16,440 tons. It It were loaded Into railway
cars , 40,000 pounds to the car , we should
have 822 car loads. This would make twenty
trains of forty-one cars each , and these
trains , with their locomotive' , would have
an aggregate length of slmiles. .
"Tho coined dollars arc packed In boxes
containing $2,000 each. It Is about all a man
an do to carry off one of these boxes. Sup-
iose we wanted to move all of Uncle Sam's
liver by man power at the same time , we
hould need at this rate 274.000 men. Giving
ach man five feet of room they would make
single file procession more than 2. > 0 miles
ong. Twenty-seven states and territories of
lie union have not so many men as this
Ithln their borders. Arkansas would fnil
5,000 short of enough , Connecticut 50,000
liort , Louisiana 25,000 , and even Marlaud ,
Inlno and Mississippi could not furnish 'he
cqulred number.
"If the government were forced to carry all
he silver across country In wagons prohnbly
,000 pounds would be a fair load to each
\\o-lioree team , taking good rotuls and bad
oads. Sixteen thousand teams would be ic-
_ ulred , and when on the road , driven close
ogether , one after another , they would make
caravan considerably moro than 100 miles
ong.
"If these teams were lined up side by side
n solid phalanx , as the wagons of scttlera
vcre on the borders of the Oklahoma Flrlp ,
hey would mak'e a column thirty miles long ,
vlth every horse able to swish flics off his
ack.
"Suppose all this silver was coined and
tored away loose , so you could g 't at It
aslly , and you were set counting it , dollar
y dollar. How long do you suppose It would
nke jou to count It all ? Well , If jou ran
ho dollars through your fingers at ths tftte
f 100 a minute and worked ten hours a day ,
excepting Sundays , It would take you nbout
hlrty years to finish the Job. "
A QUEER MES3ENQEB.
The Cockroach Mnll Currier In the Ohio
I'caltentmry.
An Interesting story Is related by the Cln-
Innatl Enquirer with reference to a scheme
'or ' the transmission of information in the
Ohio penitentiary discovered years ago by
Dr. Sid McClure , then resident physician at
he prison. Confined In adjoining cells at tlit
line were John Ryan , a Chicago thief , and
Bill Rodlfer , a desperate burglar , who was
killed one night several years ago while
going through a house at Indianapolis. Ilyan
"abored along under the sobriquet of "Star-
Ight Jack , " and was as villainous & fellow
as ever held up a stage coach.
His bravery in withstanding a flogging
with the cat-o'-nlnc tails and not uttering a
sound brought him to the attention of Rodl-
'er , who looked upon him as being made ol
he real stuff. Rodlfer himself was under
going punishment In his cell at the time
anil while Starlight Jack's wounds were heal-
ng ho was locked up In his cell , which , ac
stated , adjelned that occupied by Rodlfer.
Though the door of the cell was locked and a
great wall separated them , yet they were
sufficiently close together to become ac
quainted. So well did they take advantage ol
the opportunity that they were soon upon the
best of terms and arranged to make a break
ogether for liberty. Each had friends upon
the outside ready to assist him. Matters
went along swimmingly until one day when
Dr. McClure happened along and was the
means of frustrating their plans. The doctoi
had occasion to visit a cell near that ol
Ryan. The heat drove him outside the eel !
and there , leaning up against the Iron railing
he stood to cool off.
While standing there , the convict wnom h (
was attending , and who was a bitter cncmj
of Rodlfer , told him to watch at the botton
of the doors to the cells in which Rodifei
and Ryan were confined , and see whethei
an Insect would not soon make Its appear
ance and pass to and fro from each cell
Dr. McClure followed Instructions , and In i
little while was engaged In watching a cock
roach which would come out of Ryan's col
and enter that occupied by Rodlfer. Remain
Ing there for a time , It would return. Thh

'What does It mean ? " asked the doctor o
the convict.
"Tho next tlma It comes out of cither eel
catch It , " was the answer , "and see wha
you will find. "
Dr. McClure for the second time followei
Instructions , and was rewarded for his pains
Attached to one ot the tiny wings of tin
roach he found a bit of paper , upon vvhlcl
were some queer characters. The paper hi
took to the warden's office , together with tin
