It is & quarter to eight o'clock and the oxe. cation s fixed for elght. There is just time for him to make his tollet.” ‘Yos, you ara right, for the crowd 1a becoming Impatient,” sald Sheriff Daw son, as he glanced tosard the sqoars op- poslte the window. The aquare was fall of people. All the inhabitanta of the town of Waterford swarmod.there about the gallows. Their curioslty was justified, for poor Cocktail, the condemned man, who was to be hanged, was an exceptionally Interesting personage. What his real name was no one seemed to know, but as Jim Cocktall he was known and feared throughout the intarior part of the Lone Star state. For two years previous to hia capture he had territiod Texas. There was no kind of orlmo that he had not committed, and, as he was an ocoentrio, there was always something orlginal i his explolts. One day, after having robbed the safe of rich banker, he locked himself in his eafe. 'Three houra later the unfortunate man was dlscovered squatting like a tai- lor in his confined prieon aud completely exhausted by his efforts to summon help. Many of tho robberies committed by Jim Cocktail's band gave evidence, in the tools left behind, that there was a very clever mechanician among them. On his trial Jim Cocktail, while persis- tently refutiag to name his accomplices, who were ntifi at liberty, confess:d his crimes with unbecoming cyniclsm. He acknowledged tha’ he was both a robber and an aseassin, The jary, without a dissenti volce, condemned him to death. nfie received the verdict with a shrag of the shoulders, saying that his execution would be remembered by all. That accounted for the unprecedented excltement In Waterford. At the win- dows opening on the squara the sherlff recognized all the notable perzons of the ! Cucktall be correct.

Not to know is not to have, e town, and eepeclally his betrothed, the charming Miss Dlxie, a young lady of the “best society” of Waterford, who was to become his wife in about a week, and who displayed extreme golicltude to be correct in everything. “Above all,” she eald to her fature husband, “let your execution of Jim This is the first time I have been invited by you to witness a hanging, and I know I shall not be able to marry you if you do net carcy out with success in every respect the trust which your fallow citiz2ns have confided to yoa.” In obedience to the instructionn of the sheriff, the jaller took from his belt a large bunch of keys, and, followed by half a dczsn men employed i the prison and by the eheriff himself, he lod the way to_the call of the condemned man, sltuated ot the end of a dark corridor at the back of the jail. Jim Cocktall, his form lying extended on the bed, his faze to the wall, szemed to be sleeping soundly. “Mr. Cocktail,” said the sherlff politely, “‘it lacks but ten minutes of 8 o'clock. Now, yon know your execution is fixed for eight. _All the best people of Waterford aro already fu the equare, and I dare say that your execution will be a most brilliant s fair. Be good enough, therefore, to gat up 8> as not to keep +hese gentlemen waiting.” Jim Cocktail did not move. “Thera arealeo a number of ladies in the square,” added the sheriff, who was Dbecoming slightly vexed, ‘and surely you would not tire them by your de- cource to audaclty. He advanced to the edge of the platform and addressed the crowd, “Ladles and gentlemen,” he rald, ‘“Mr Cacktall has desired me to present his excuses to you. He awoke ina very nervous condition this morning, and for that raason his bearing for the past few minutes has not been all that it should have been. He has, however, promlsed mo that he will dle like a trus man, and 1 promisa you that he will keep his word.” Then the sheriff, taking a position in front of Jim Oocktall, whom two keep- ers held upright on the platform, placed the rope around his neck, bat in exe- cuting this movement he touched a spring concanled in the beard of the manikin, and then occurred a frightful accldent, such as had never been known before in the history of capital executions. Thers was a slight ronnd like that by a clock about tostrike, and then the stralns of dance music wero heard doming from the body of Jim Cocktail, who suddenly be- gan to dance a jig over the trap in the gallows, The sherifl, his asslstants and tho clorgyman awooned with fright. The manikin of Jim Coctall, which had evidently bsen constructed by a clever mechanism belonging to the outlaw's band, was a musical automaton, and had been wound up and made ready to work whenever the spring in the neck was pressed.

The theory that the garden of Eden was sitnated in Asia Minor has been re- jected by many eminent men, Ohristo- pher Columbus maintatned that Eden was situated on the top of a mountaln in Guisna, and he would have visited 1t had time and money permitted. This opinlon was not, strange as it may seem, regarded as Leretlcal, for the church ac- cepted Columbus’ theory that the Mcsale account of a garden planted eastward, on the banks cf the Euphrates, could be reo- onciled with sclentific proof that the garden was, in point of fact, planted on a South Amerlcan mountain, Perhaps it was essier to reconcile sclence and reli- gion in the time of Columbus than it is now; for we may be very sure that a pro- festor in & Southern Presbyterian theolgi- cal seminary who should adopt the theory held by Columbus would be promptly tried for heresy. A new theorist has just written a book to prove that Eden was sitoated pracise- Iy at the north pole, He claims that at the time of the creation of Adam the north pole enjoyed n_delightful climate, free from malaris, and wonderfully adapt- cd to pereons suffering from rheumatism, consumption, dyspepia, Bright's dis- eate, broken legs and all other dlseases of the throat and lungs. It s his opin- fon that Immediately after the fall of Adam there was a teeming population at the pole, and that the different races of mankind emigrated from tha’ region in separato streams to populate Americs, Europe, Asis, and the rest of the world. They carried with them the seeds cf all valuabla p'anta and spacimens of all de- sirable animals, and when the wurk of populating the globa had been completed the garden of Eden was suddenly frozen solid, so that it might be prezerved in ice aatil a late period in the history of the carth, Of couree the inventor of this theory holds that an expedition should proceed to the pole and annex the Garden of Eden to the United States without celay. “Shake him, since he pretends not to hear. If he intends this as & jest it is ill timed,” sald tho sheriff, severely. The jailer obeyed and seized Jim Cocktall by the shoulder, bat he at once roleased his hold, uttering a cry of aston- {shment and elevating bis huge oye- brows uniil they seemed almost to join his bair. “Sheriff! Sheriff!” he exclaimed, “‘this is & wooden man.” The eheriff threw himself upon Jim Cocktall and fourd to his dismay tha’ he had been addressing, nct the condemned man, but a manikin made of pasteboard and wood, which had been secretly put in his place. But who had done this? Pressntly the sheriff feund in one of the manikin’s hands the following letter, which he read to his frightened men:— 10 THE SHERIFF:— Excuse me if I decline to be hanged by you. Important affairs demand my atten- tion,and L go to rejoin my comrades who have helped me to_escape. It you like, you can hang the manikin which I leave in my place, and which my frisnds passed through the window, the bars of which I sawed, Yours truly, J1y COCKTAIL, The sheriff let the letter fall from his hands, and glanced toward the window. He saw that two large bars had been Eawn, A moment of silence foljowed. All were dumbfounded. The sherifl' foresaw that this unfortunate cccurrence would end in the breaking off of hisengsgement to Miss Dixle, and the jallor and his as- sistants saw that they would probably lose their positions, ~What was 10 be done? “*Suppose we hang the manikin, as this rascal has euggested,” eald the jailer, who was a shrewd and crafty fellow, “How can you think of 1t?” exclalmed the dlstracted sherlff. **How could we manage the march to the gallows?” “*We could carry hlm in our arme, as if he were overcome by fear,” said the jailor, “‘The hair and beard sre of the same color a8 Jim Cocktall's, and the people will not discover the trick. Let us make haste, for the hour for execution has srelved. 1t is striking elght now.” There was not a minute to bs lost; there was no tlme for reflection. Be- sldes the sheriff's first ?honght was to avold any trouble that mfght prevent his marrlage, 0 he gave his consent to the jaller's proposition. Flve mioutes later the doors of the prison were thrown open, and the pos- sersion made Ite appesrance with the sheriff at its head. Then came the gler- gyman, who was reading the service, while in his heart deploring the mute obstinacy of the criminal. After him came the pseudo Jim Cocktall himself, borne in the arms of two of the keepers of the rison, his limbe draggiog like those orn man who had lost his senses. Other employes of the prlson brought up the rear of the procets'on. . Oa seelng the pitiable condition of Jim Oocktail, the crowd murmured, snd hisses were heard as he was lifted to the scaffold, This way not accomplished without a good desl of trouble. Fortun- ately, the sheriff was cheered by a glance from Miss Dixie expresslog her enthie confldence In him. ‘The sherlft w's in one of thoss posi- ticns in which 1t is necessary to bave re- 1t is, however, probable that few objects of any pecunlary value are now In the garden.

The Advantage of Settling in tha New Towa The title “‘South Omaha” doesnot mean the southern part of the aity of Omaha.but is the name of the thrivine town commencine at the Union Stock yards on tho south, and extend ing for a mile and & half north, nearly connecting with thecity limits of Omaha, The company have again concluded to put on sale 1,000 lots, and let the purchasers of the ramo realize the profit which the enhancad value of these lots is sure to make, It now being an assured fact that South Omaha is destined —in the near future—to be tho largest live stock market west of Chicago, thero can ba no doubt that this property in a few years will be worth five or even ten times the amount that it can be bought for to-day. Some may ask: If this Is 8o, why dc not the company keep it and’ realizo this profit The answer i, that in order to make lots valuable, there must be improvements on or sur rounding them, and as is the case in all new towns, spocial inducements must be offared at first to @et the paople to take hold and build. There are probably more such inducoments offered by South Omaha than wero ever put forth by any new town, The large business doue by the stock yards company and the im- mense slaughter and packing houses together with their auxilaties are no small fosturs i the aggregate of events that aro destined to make South Omahan large placa. Again, the town is not an addition to Omaha, and is not liabla for city taxes, althongh it enjoys ull the banofits from the growth of Omaha that it would if it were just INSIDE the city limits, bub being just OUTSIDE, only county taxas are collacted, which aro merely nomiaal. ‘e town owas and operates its own water works, vhich furnish an abundant supply of pure spring water.

CLEANERS, BOLTING .GLOTH, e ——— The Printing of Postage Stamps. For twelve years the contracts under which pestage stamps have been made and supplied to the government, have contained a specification that “‘thes'amps muet be printed on hand-roller prestes.” The specification had the effect of keep- Ing out of competition parties who have fuciliies for doing the work just as well and even mors cheaply on steam process, The bureau of printing and engraving has used ateam pro- cass for several years, yot has never printed any of the postage stamps. The contract let four yearsago expires on June 30 next, When It was made, owing to the clause mentioned, therse was no compelition, and there would have been none this year but for the postmaster general’s decition to abrogate that speci- fication. Mr. Vilas’ attention was called to the matter by Homer Lee, of New York, and it was referred to Aseistant Fostmaster General Hazen, who, after conferring with the exports of the trea- sary department and of the bureau of Pablic Engraving as to the merits of steam printing and the steam presses in use by the government, advised that s moroe extended competition be permitted. The cost of postage stamps has been re- duced from 25 cents per thousand stamps twelve years ago, to 9.19 cents, the price paid under the present contract, The admission of steam presses into com- petition will probably enable the department to make a great re- duction even on thls rate. The contract amounts to about $200,000 a year, The Governments of Germany, Russia and Sweden are using steam pres in the manufactura of postage stawpy. The estimated amount of stamps to be used is based on the number issued during 1884, which was as foll. Ordinary 2.gent stamps, 1,452,815,150; newspaper and periodical etamps, 2,163,385; post- sge duo stampe, 12,040.270, It is also estimsted that 5.000,000 of the new 10 cent epecial delivery stamps will be required next yesr, For the first time ington society possee, wife, ASK FOR RED CROSS | .
