Oat of the bank and wu null snoring wh-n
I again Blood and listened under Ills open
window.
"Why did I leave tho bank first? To
catch and saddle the n.are and tether her
!n a clump of trees close by to have the
tnrans of escape nice and handy before I
went to work. 1 have otten wondered at
the Instinctive wisdom of the precau
tion. Unconsciously I was acting on
what has been one of my guiding princi
ples ever since. Pains and patience were
required I had to get my saddle without
waking the man, and I was not used to
catching horses In a horse paddock. Then
I distrusted the poor mare, and went
back to the stables for a hatful of oats,
which I left with her In the clump, hat and
all. There was a dog, too, to reckon with
(our very worst enemy, Bunny); but I had
been 'cute enough to make Immense friends
with him during the evening, and he
wagged his tall, not only when I came
downstairs, but f hen I reappeared at the
back door.
"As the sol-distant new manager, 1 had
been able, in the most ordinary course, to
pump poor Ewbank about anything and
everything Connected with the working oC
the bank, especially In those twenty last
Invaluable minutes before turning In. And
I had made a very natural point of asking
him where he kept, and would recommend
me to keep, the keys at night. Of course
1 thought he would take them with him to
his room; but no such thing; he had a
dodge worth two of that. What It was
doesn't much matter, but no outsider would
have found those keys In a month of Bun
days. "I, of course, had them In a few seconds,
and In a few more I was In the strong
room Itself. I forgot to say that the moon
had risen and was letting quite a lot of
light Into the bank. I had, however,
brought a bit of candle with me from my
room, and In the strong-room, which was
down some narrow stairs behind the coun
ter 10 the banking chamber, I had no hesi
tation In lighting ic. There was no window
down there, and, though I could no longer
hear old Ewbank snoring, I had not the
lightest reason to anticipate disturbance
from that quarter. I did think of locking
myself In while I was at work, but thank
goodness the Iron door had no keyhole on
the Inside.
"Well, there were heaps of gold In tho
safe, but I only took what I needed and
could comfortably carry, not much more
than a couple of hundred altogether. Not
a note would I touch, and my native caution
came out also In the way 1 divided the
sovereigns between all my pockets, and
packed them up so that I shouln't be like
tho old woman of Banbury Cross. Well,
you think me too cautious still, but I was
Insanely cautious then. And so It was that.
Just as I was ready to go, whereas I might
have been somo ten minutes, there came a
violent knocking at the outer door.
"BUnny, it was the outer door of the
banking chamber! My candle must have
been Been! And there I stood, with the
grease running hot over my fingers, In that
brick grave of a strong-room!
"There was only one thing to be done. I
must trust to the sound Bleeping of Ewbank
iipstalrs, open the door myself, knock the
visitor down or shoot him with the revolver
I had been chump, enough to buy before
leaving Melbourne, and make a dash for
that clump of trees and the doctor's mare.
My mind was made up In an Instant, and
I was at tho top of the strong-room stairs,
the knocking still continuing, when a
second sound drove me back. It was the
sound of bare f?ct coming along a corridor.
."My narrow stair was stone. I tumbled
down It with little noise, and had only to
push open the Iron door, for I had left the
keys In the safe. As I did so I heard a handle
turn overhead and thanked my gods that I
hut every door behind me. You see, old
chap, one's caution doesn't always let one
In.
" 'Who's that knocking?1 said Ewbank
up above.
"I could not make out the answer, but
It sounded to me like the Irrelevant suppli
cation of a sjnt man. What I did hear
plainly was the cocking of the bank re
volver before the bolts were shot back;
then a tottering step, a hard, short, shal
low breaching, and Ewbank's voice In
horror:
" 'My Ood! Oood 1ord! What's hap
pened to you? You're bleeding like a pig!'
" 'Not now,' came with a grateful sort
of sigh.
" 'But you have been! What's done iW
" 'Bushrangers.' ,
" 'Down the road?
" "i'hta and Whittlesear-tied to a tree
cock shots left me bleed to death'
"The weak voice failed and the bare feet
bolted. How was my time if the poor
devil had fainted. But I could aot be sure,
and there I crouched down below In the
dark at the half shut Iron door not less
spellbound than Imprisoned. It was Just
as well, for Ewbank wasn't gone a minute.
'Lirlnk this,' I beard him say, and,
when the other spoke . again, hla voice
was stronger. ,
" 'Now I begin to feel alive'
" Don't talk."
" It does me good. You don't know what
It was ell those miles alone, one an hour,
at the outside. I never thought I should
come through. You must let me tell you
in case I don't.'
' 'Well, have another sip.'
" Thank you I said bushrangers;
of course, there are no such things nowa
days.' " 'What were they, then?'
" 'Bank thieves; the one that had the pot
shots was the very brute I drove out of
the bank at C'oburg with a bullet In him!' "
"I knew it."
"Of course you did, Bunny; so did I,
down in that strong room; but old Ewbank
didn't, and I thought he was never going
to speak again.
" 'You're delirious,' he says at last. 'Who
In blazos do you think you are?'
" The new manager.'
" 'The new manager's In bed and asleep
upstairs,!' ,
' 'When did he arrive?'
" This evening.'
" 'Call himself Raffles?'
'Yes.'
" 'Well, I'm d d!' whispered the real
man. I thought (t was Just revenge, but
now I see what It was. My dear sir, the
man upstairs Is an Imposter If he's up-
Btalrs still! He must be one of the gang.
He's going to rob the bank if he hasn't
done so already I' '
" 'If he hasn't done so already, muttered '
Ewbank after him; 'If he's upstairs still!
By God, if he Is I'm sorry for him!'
"His tone was quiet enough, but about
the nastiest I ever heard. I tell you.
Bunny, I was glad Id brought that re
volver. It looked as though It must be
mine against his, muzzle to muszle.
" 'Better have a look down here first,'
said the new manager.
" 'While he gets through his window?
No, no, he's not down here.'
" 'It's easy to have a look.'
"Bunny, If you ask me what was the
most thrilling moment of my infamous ca
reer, I say It was that moment. There I
stood at the bottom of those narrow stone
stairs, inside the strong room, with the
door a good foot open, and I didn't know
whether it would creak or not. The light
was coming nearer and I didn't know!
I had to chance it. And It didn't creak a
bit; It was far too solid and well hung;
and I couldn't have banged It If I tried. It
was too heavy; and It fitted so closfe that
I felt and heard the air squeeze out In my
face. Every shred of light went out, ex
cept the streak underneath, and It bright
ened. How I blessed that door!
" 'No, he's not down there,' I heard as
though through cotton-wool; then the
streak went out, too, and In a few seconds
I ventured to open once more, and was In
time to hear them creeping to my room.
"Well, now, there was not a fifth of a
second to be lost; but I'm proud to say I
came up those stairs on my toes and lingers,
ond out of that hnnk (they'd gone and left
the door open; Just as gingerly as though
my time "had been my own. I didn't even
forget to put on the hat the doctor's mare
was eating her oats out of, as well as she
could with a bit. or it alone would have
landed me. I didn't even gallop away,
but Just Jogged off quietly in the thick
dust at the side of the road (though I own
my heart was galloping), and thanked my
stars the bank was at that end of the
township In which I really hadn't Bet foot.
The very last thing I heard was the two
managers raining Cain and the coachman.
And now. Bunny "
He stood up and stretched himself, with
a smile that ended (n a yawn. The black
windows had faded through every shade of
Indigo; they now framed their opposite
neighbors, stark and livid in the dawn; and
the gas seemed turned to nothing In the
globes.
"But that's not all?" I cried.
"I'm sorry to say It Is," said Raffles,
apologetically. "The thing should have
ended with an exciting chase, I know, but
somehow It didn't. I suppose they thought
I had got no end of a start; then they had
made up their minds that I belonged to the
gang, which was not so many miles away,
and one of them had got as much us he
could carry from that gang as It was.
But I wasn't to know all that, and I'm
bound to say there was plenty of excite
ment left for me. Lord, how I made that
poor brute travel when I got among the
trees! Though we must have made It
over fifty miles from Melbourne, we had
done It at snail's pace, and those stolen
oats had brisked the old girl up to such a
pitch that she fairly bolted when she felt
her nose turned south. By Jove, it was
no Joke, In and out among those trees and
under branches with your face In the
mane! I told you about the forest of
dead gums? It looked perfectly ghostly in
the moonlight. And I found It as still as
I had left It so still that I pulled up there,
my first halt, and lay with my ear to the
ground for two or three minutes. But I
heard nothing not a thing but the mares'
bellow and my own heart. I'm sorry,
Bunny, but if ever you write my memoirs,
you won't have any difficulty In working
up that chase. Play those dead gum trees
for all they're worth, and let the bullets
fly like hall. I'll turnaround in my saddle
to see Ewbank coming up hell-U-leather
In his white suit, and I'll duly paint it red.
Do It In the1 third person, and they won't
know how It's going to end."
"But I don't know myself," I complained.
"Did the mare carry you all the way back
to Melbourne?"
"Every rod, pole or perch. I had her
well seen to at our hotel and returned her
to the doctor In the evening. He was tre
mendously tickled to hear I had been
bushed. Next morning he brought me the
paper to show me what I had escaped at
Yea."
"Without suspecting anything?"
"Ah,V said Raffles as he put out the gas,
"that's a point on which I've never made
up my mind. The inare and her color, was
a coincidence luckily she was only a bay
and I fancy the condition of the beast
must have told a tale. The doctor's man
ner was certainly different. I'm inclined
to think he suspected something, though
not tl.e right thing. I wasn't expecting
hlro, and I fear my appearance may have
increased hlseusplclons."
I asked him why.
"I used to have rather a heavy mus
tache," said Raffles, "but I lost it the day
after I lost my Innocence."

Curious and Romantic Capers of Cupid
m
College Girls Wed.
HE University of Michigan has bad
2,000 girl graduates - since 1870,
when the first coed was admitted
to the college. Data collected by
Helen L. Million, a Michigan
graduate of 1S87, shows that these college
girls hsve stood more than three times the
chance of a long life which the average
woman has.
The girl graduates for the first thirty
years of Michigan's coeducational venture
are used In this comparison. They are
matched against the twelfth census figures.
Only the first thirty years of graduates
were considered because the more recent
girls are not yet within the age limits of
this particular census death rate for
women. Out of the first 1,184 girls to leave
Michigan only sixty-five have died. The
census death rate for womankind In gen
eral for the same period of time is 228 out
Of every 1,000.
, Miss Million says that failure -to marry
cannot be claimed as a reason for the un
usual health of these college women. For
In this first thirty years half of the girls
hsve marrted. In the marriage question It
Is found that college women are on the
"eligible" list much longer than the home
bred girl. A comparison of the wedding
days of the fortunate half of the first 1,000
Michigan girls shows that nearly half of
those married waited a few years after
graduation before falling In love. The fig
ures seem to Indicate that a college woman
does not become an "old maid" until at
least ten years after graduation. Previous
te this she la a "bachelor girl," and dan
gerous to unwedded men.
Help Bla Daughter to Rlop.
A pretty daughter's confiding father In
nocently facilitated her elopement in In
dependence, Mo. Informed that the young
couple wished to attend a matinee in Kan
sas City, he kindly drove, them to the
depot. Two hours luter they were man and
Wife.
John H. Lamp. Jr., son of John H.
Lempe of the Drumm Live Stock Commis
sion company, and Mlas Frances Mary
Hughes, daughter of Melvln Hughes, a
well-to-do farmer and- stockman of Inde
pendence, were the young folk. They were
married' by Rev. George H. Combs at his
heme, VXX East Sixth street. Mr. Itmpe
was tl years of age and Miss Hughes was
It. The young woman's parents knew
nothing of the marriage until late.
Well! Well! they exclaimed In chorus.
'This Is a great surprise, but it seems too
late to express any regrets."
.The Hughes home is about one and one
half miles east of Independence on the
Lexington road. Mr. Lampe called upon
Miss Hughes the other night and was
o pleasantly entertained thct he missed
the last car for Kansas City. He spent
the night at the Hughes home and
"visited with the folks" during the morn
ing. As the noon hour approached he
went to Mr. Hughes and said:
"I'd like to take Mary' to the matinee.
X see you have the rig hitched up; will
you drive us to the car?"
Mr. Hughes was glad to be of service.
Several hours luter he was considerably
surprised to learn that his kind offices
had furthered an elopement.
"Confound that boy!" said Mr. Hughes
when he learnt) he had a son-in-law.
"tie told me he wanted to take Mary
Fanny to the matinee, because he was going
away In a few days to his father's ranch
In Glenwood county, Kansas." '
The bride Is extremely pretty and a
popular member of Independence society.
Her father Is a Kentucklan and a son of
the late Merrlt Hughes, a pioneer ot Jack
son county. Her mother was a Kentucky
belle and famous for her beauty. .
Mr. and Mrs. Lampe returned to the
bride's home, told what had happened,
were forgiven and remained at the house.
It was said there that they probably
would remain with the H,ugheses several
dacs.
Reviving Aaclent Wedding Customs.
Several ancient wedding customs, prac
ticed by the Prussian royal family two cen
turies ago and earlier, wtll be revived at
the festivities In honor of the marriage of
Crown Prince Frederick William and the
Duchess Cecilia of Mecklanburg-Schwerin,
June I.
One of these is (he so-called court at
cards, in which the bride and bridegroom,
playing cards with the king and
receive the congratulations of the
The emperor, empress, crown prince
and crown princess will sit at a regular
card table In the white hall of the palace,
with card tables for other members of the
royal family right and left of the emperor's
table. Behind each distinguished person
age will stand his or her suite, and the In
vited guests will mass In front of the card
tables, bow deeply, and then take up posi
tions right and left, making room for
similar groups.
Another ancient ceremony will be a dance
by torchlight, dating from the early Teu
tonlo times.
After the bride and bridegroom have left
tbe wedding party the" chtef lady In waiting
will give each of the guests a garter cf
silk or velvet, with the bride's monogram
and the date in gold letters.
Whether the Grand Duchess Anastasia,
mother of the bride, will attend the wed
ding seems to be still undecided. Asser
tions that she will or that she will not do

A Filipino Wedding.
"A, wedding In the Philippines is like a
scene from a comic opera," writes Minna
Irving In Llpplncott's magaslne. "I have In
mind one that took placo at Cagayan,
Island of Mindanao, In a picturesque
house curtained with Jasmine and inhab
ited by three charming sisters. The bride
the eldest w-s a soft-eyed, plump beauty,
with a skin like brown velvet. Her white,
muslin gown would have passed muster In
New York, and she wore a veil of costly
and delicate pina gauze which would have
turned an American bride-elect green with
envy. Several necklaces were hung around
her neck, while bangles loaded her 'wrists,
and her fingers were stiff with gold and
sliver rings. The roads were In a deplor
able state, being knee-deep In mud in
places, and many of the guests wore top
boots. They began arriving early In thu
morning, on horseback, on bicycles and
driving the famous trotting bulls of the
country, or the rough-coated Island ponies
hitched to carts or ancient victorias. The
majority came on foot, though, and every
body was welcome. Long tables made of
planks on empty barrels and guiltless of
linen were spread under the trees in the
front yard, as It was too hot to eat la-
doors, also the house was not nearly large
enough to accommodate the guests. Di
rectly over the bride's table a magnificent
fire tree (arbol de fuego) dropped ltB flam
lng blossoms. Every kind of native dish
was there and many' Imported from the
United States by way of Manila, but the
chief delicacy was considered to be canned
corned beef, which occupied the place of
honor usually accorded the wedding cake
In other countries, and was flanked by
onion omelet and ham and eggs. Other
dishes were chicken fried In cocoanut oil.
dried fish made In a kind of stew with rice
potatoes and red pepper enough to raise
It to the rank of a curry. Caribou steaks,
Jam, honey, various kinds of sweet oake.
cocoanuts In the shell, and wine much
wine completed the menu. While the feast
was In progress the hens scratched indus
triously under the tables and a bold rooster
flew up among the plates, pecked at a few
stray crumbs, and crowed until driven off
by Antolne, the bride's brother. The mar
riage was performed by a very fat priest,
who wore a suit of bright red calico under
Ms flowing robes, the wind blowing through
open doors and windows lifting his vest
ments and revealing the Incongruous at
tire beneath. The ceremony was followed
by the supper, and that In turn by dan
cing, the music being furnished by a harp
and piano."
Belated Wedding of School Chums,
A marriage under peculiar circumstances
was solemnised at Roanoke, Va., recently.
Mrs. Black was the bride, and Thomas H,
Nance of Indian Territory the bridegroom.
The couple were schoolmates, and began
a courtship In their childhood days, but
parental objections prevented an early mar
riage and the young people drifted apart
and In time formed other ties.
Each entered matrimonial alliances twice
before, the bridegroom losing two wives
and the bride two husbands.
Mr. Nance finally drifted west and located
In Indian Territory, where he became well-
to-do. Two months ago, although having
reached three score and eleven years, he
had a longing desire to return to his native
heath and ascertain If his sweetheart of
hia youth was still living. Ha Immediately
started the long drive of 1,700 miles In a
buggy, the trip requiring seven weeks.
He found Mrs. Black living and comfort
able In her splendid home. He lost no time
In making his identity known, and found
the widow's heart responsive, though she

Having traveled 2,000 miles that they
might carry on their courtship without
interruption. C. A. Gordon and M,lss Kath-e.-ine
Hucek of Taooma, Wash., were mar
ried recently In Evanston, III. After the
ceremony they began the return trip to
the Pacific coast to seek the forgiveness
of Miss liucek's father, who had forbidden
the marriage.
Gordon Is a student In a Chicago medical
school. To be near her lover and to edu

study as a trained nurse. Gordon obtained
an appointment as interne In the Hahne
