By and’Hy Max O'Rell hud to remind his audience, 1o explain a point, that he was a Frenchrafi.”' ““Ah, you're a Frefchinan'' shouted the man at the top of his'voles, “‘well, if you're a Frenchman, you pléa¥é’leave John Bull alone and give me & lecture on Waterloo, you beggar!" ) Max O'Rell declined to give a lecture on Waterloo, as this was mot the subject an- On hearing this the jolly Briton gain, faced the audience, and said: ‘This man says be i a Freachman and he can't speak on Waterloo. 1 tell you, the man 15 no Frenchman.” And as his speech threatened to replace the lecture, two polic men had to come to the rescue of the French- man, et The Era of Old Men. This is supposed to be the era of young men, but the truth s there were never more famous old men on deck than we have today. Mr. Gladstone is 85, and Mr. Jules Stmon is 80. Both are physically strong and active, and they are now dolng some of thelr best work. But these are mot the only instances in history of the extraordinary aetivity of very old men. Dandols, when t 90, and utterly blind, stormed Jonstantinople. Titian was paioting his finest pictures when be died in his 100tk year. Sir lsaac New- ton was president of the Royal society at the ago of 83, and Landor finished his “Imagin- ary Conversations at tho age of 89. Brougham was a strong debater at 80, and Lyndhurst, when over 90, spoke in the House of Lords. Franklin was governor of Pennsyl- vania at the age of 82, and we now have Morri'l in the senate at g b The only way to cure catarrh fs to purify the blood. Hood's Sarsaparilla purifies the blood and tones up the whole system, kg s WENT LIEE HOT CAKES, A Successful Missionary Sche Matrimonial Line, About five years ago, relates Youth's Com- panion, the secretary of a missionary organi- zation in one of our great religious denomi- nations visited a large mining town in the west. There was a missionary in the place with whom he stayed. The dinner was cooked and served by the wife of his host, who sat down, tio wearied to cat. “Have you no help?’ asked the sccretary. The missionary’s wife laughed. *“There are several thousands of men in this town, and only twenty-two women,” she said. The women are wives of prosperous citizens, I do not know that one of them has a mald to help her. There are not enough Chinamen to meet domestic demands. Women cooks or chambermaids would make a fortune here."” “Whom do the men marry?” inquired the secretary, after a thoughtful pause. ““They don't marry,” replied the missionary. “More “than that, this region is settled by ranchmen, young men, who, for want of home life, are driven to drinking and gam- bling. This town is filled with saloons and gambling dens. “The men must have amusement—some- thing beside their wowk. They are not usually a class who care for reading, or who have much self-control. The most efficient help that I could have in my .work would be a few good homes with wives and mothers in_them.” The difficulty was a new one to the good secretary. It remained in his memory. Six months later Le visited a large country town in New England. After two days he said to the clergyman, “I sce only women and old men here. Where are your young men?" “Gone west,” was the' reply. “Worse than that, they have carried with them the capital and energy of the town. There is no industry here by which the surplus popu- lation of women can support themselves, They simply slave, and starve and grow old.” The secretary made no reply. But some time later he made a suggestion and a pro- posal to his host, which was, if he would select thirty respectable and industrious young women In his town, and induce them to go to the mining town he had visited he would consign them to the care of the mis- sionary and his wife, who would take them in charge and secure work for them, for which they would receive liberal pay. *I will see,” he said, “that the expense of their passage out is paid, and the cost of their board until each girl has found employment." The offer was accepted, and soon a car load of bright, energetic girls were on their way west, A year o more later the secretary again visited the missionary, and again his wife cooked and served the dinner. “Why, where are the thirty maids exclaimed. “Every one,” said Mrs. M., “is married and in a home of her own, making, I'hope, a better man of her husband.

And fo the Youth Couldn't Fell Came Into His Room. The young man who thinks he is going to come out ahead in avy joke in which a girl of ordinary sharpness Is involved is sure to find his mistake. It happened some time ago in a certain college that the dormiteries of both the young lady and gentlemen students opened into the sama hall, says the Indian- apolis Sentinel. One evening near midnight one of the giris, who had slipped out of her room to enjoy a secret chat with one of the other girls was hurrying to her room and in the dark mistook the room, entering the room of one of the boys by mistake, He was standing by the gas jet, having just turned out the light, and when she had found the match which she carried in her pocket avd started to light the gas she stumbled against him. Of course she screamed and started for the door, but he was too quick for her, and holding her for & moment actually bit her cheek, in order that he might identify the young lady when next they met. Of course her wrath knew no bounds, and when sfie Znally reached her room she called an indignation meet- ing of the other girls and ex- plalned what the horrid fellow had pre- sumed to do. She could never face him again and was not going to chapel in the morning But then, of course, he would Know who she was was, and e eppealed to the girls to help her out of the difficulty. They did.

It Holmes s past master in the art of insurance swindling. He had reduced it mysteries swindles on to a sclence, and his crimes were no less numerous than | his aliases. Originally a Mudgett, born on a farm near New a_ school 17, married London, New Hampshire, hs teacher at 16, was in col at 18, In the Michigan university at 19, a graduate at 21, and now at tho age of 34 he has a record §160,000 to $200,000 fraudulently taken from life insurance companies, while circumstances point to six murders, besides innumerabls fire insurance swindles, bogus building became lege at schemes, forgeries, false pretenses, and a score | or more alleged wives. His operations ex. tended from Maine to California, from Ana Arbor to Texas. A continental beat, his petty villainies evidenced the scientific dash and invulnerable nerve so conspicuous in the crime for which he was apprehended—the bogus Pitezel insurance swindle perpetrated on a Philadelphia_compan The most remarkable feature of his amaz ing eriminal carcer Is the fact that the Glen dale train robbery was the direct cause of his arre Holmes had a weakness for Jail bird He sought their acquaintance, and his companions, or rather his tocls, wero of that stripe, Holmes was in no wise con- nected with the train robbery. He was a thousand miles away when Hedgspath per- formed the stand-and-deliver act two years ago. But Holmes met Hedgspath in fail, and when the former, and Mra, Pitezel and Lawyer Howe quarrcled over the division of the '§10,000 sccured on the life of Pitezel, Hedgspath sent a note to the chief of police of St. Louls, and the information it conveyed led to the exposure and arrest. What means was employed by Holmes to end the lives of his victims is not in evi- dence. The poison route is the one gener- ally chosen by crooks of his class, and the criminal records of the country are filled with chapters detailing the diabolical prac- tice. Dr. Henry Meyer, who is now in Jjail | in New York awaiting trial, Is charged with | having poisoned five persons in order to se cure the money for which he had previously insured their lives. The doctor's wife was his chief accomplice. She would ‘“‘marry” the vietim selected, induca him to insure lis life, and with the aid of the doctor dope him with deadly drugs, and weep copiously as the hard clods dropped on his remains. The doctor was not a pioncer in the poison route to wealth. One of the most noted cases of this kind is that of Dr. Pritchard of Glasgow, Scotland, which occurred some year: ago. Dr. Pritchard was well known in Glas- gow. He belonged to a good family and was highly respected. Although it was not gen- erally known, he was not particularly happy in his home life. After a lingering lllness that baflled the efforts of the best physicians his wife died. It transpired that the doctor had secured heavy infurance on her life. The money was paid over to him. Not very long afterward his mother-in-law was seized with the same pecullar ailment that had carried off Mrs. Pritchard, and she, too, died. Her life was heavily insured also. This sec- ond death following the first so close made the insurance companies suspicious. They refused to pay the claims, and caused the arrest of Dr. Pritchard. The bodles of the dead women were exhumed; it was found on analysis of the viscera that they had died of polsoning by antimony—the same toxic agent used by Dr. Meyer. Dr. Pritchard was taken to Edinburgh, where he was tried for murder, and convicted. He was hanged at Glasgow, the execution being witnessed by many of the students of the Glasgow uni- versity. THE BOGUS CORPSE PLAN. Attempts to defraud life insurance com- panies without resorting to murder are com- mon enough. All sorts of subterfuges have been adopted to secure the necessary proof of death, and it Is the ingeniousness of these devices that makes up the interest in the literature of life insurance frauds. One of the recent cases of attempted fraud was that of Benjamin Musgrave of Chicago, who took out policies amounting to some $30,000 in the United States Mutual Acci- dent assoclation. At that time Musgrave lived with his wife and sister on Kedzie avenue. After a short time he went alone to Indiana, where, under somg plausible pre- text, he occupied a small frame cabin near Terre Haute. One night this cabin burned down, and in the debris were found some charred human bones, which were supposed to be Musgrave's, and a masonic charm known to be his. His widow mourned him as dead and demanded $30,000 from the In- surance ‘company, which refused payment pending an Investigation. It was learned that Musgrave's means would not warrant him in carrying $30,000 life insurance. The detectives found that Musgrave had bought in St. Louis from a medical student a human skeleton, which he had shipped to him to an office in the Tacoma block, and which he had subsequently forwarded to Terre Haute. While the inquest on the bones found in the ruins was In progress and the coroner’'s jury was declaring them to be the remains of Benjamin Musgrave, the detectives were chasing him so close that as they went in the front door of his residence he went out the back door. He was finally captured at St. Paul and Is now in the Michigan City penitentiary A somewhat similar easa was that of An toine Thrun, of recent date, who, after se- curing a large amount of insurance on his life, was supposed to have perished In a fire at Janesville, Wis. He was traced to New Orleans, where he was located by means of decoy letters, and brought back to Wiscon- sin, where he was tried and convicted and sent for a term of years to the Waupun prison, where he now ‘is A KANSAS SPECIMEN, A noted case is that of J. H. Hillman which dates back some years. Hillman lived in Lawrence, Kan., and, after obtaining pol icles amounting to §35,000 on his life, went with a confederate named Brown to Wichita, near which town they lived on a ranch Hither they brought a man who resemblod Hillman in weight and helght. Together the killed this man and buried him on the ranch, clad in Hillman's clothes, with several of Hillman's trinkets in the pockets. Brown returned alone to Lawrence and told how he had accidentally killed Hillman and demande | the $25,000. The company refused payment, and, on being exhumed, the body buried on the ranch was found not to be Hillman's Brown fled. A heavy reward was offored for Hillman's capture. He was arrcsted in Ard zona, but his captors quarreled In advance over the division of the reward and Hillman persuaded one of them to let him escape. e has neyer been recaptured and the suits for the money are still pending in the conrts A sailor named Wagner attempted n neat swindle on the Travelers' Accldent Insurance company. - He took out a $7.500 policy and | on the next trip of his ship fell overbeard in Buffalo harbor, and go down The company the elalin and the widow sued.

The young man's parents had died when he was but a boy and he had been raised by an older married | sister. The family moved from Black Roek, | Wis., to Oregon, and met with poor success. Their affairs became very bad, and his sister | and her husband were about to lose thetr farm by fc fosure of the mortgage on fit.. his affected young Donnelly deoply. He obtained policies for $100,000 on his life from the New York Mutual, and a month later he fell from a fir tree he was trimming | and was instantly killed. The company re fused payment aud instructed W, A. Plnker- | ton to personally investigate the caso, as sufcide was suspected, and the policies con= | tained a suicide forfeiture clause. It wa | learned that the young man in trimming | tha fir tree procceded in order the reverse of the usual way of doing such work. He | began at the bottom of the tree instead of | the top, and cut away the branches as he went up, until he had a sheer fall of 100 feet beneath him with nothing to break his descent. It was also found out that in order | to make the first payment of premium and | Bet possession of the policies Donnelly had | sold or mortgaged everything he possessed. | By his will all was left to the sister at Portland. It was ‘earned that Donnelly had | been a patron of the public library. One | book, the attendant said, Donnelly had | read no less than throe times shortly b fore his death. It proved to bo a novel, “Was 1t Her Fault?" The plot was the story of a Frenchman of noble family who was on the vergs of bankruptey | and dishonor. His only son, learning of his parent’s straits, insured his own life for a large sum; took, with some friends, a trip to the Alps, where he fell into a crevasse; | the insurance money paid the father's debts and saved the family honor. Young Don- | nelly had acted out in roality the tragely imagined by the author, only that as there Was no crevasse in a glacier for him to fall into he fell from a fir tree. It was to all appearances a case of suicide, but the com- pany compromised and ‘the sister was given $15,000, s0 that the young man did not die altogether in vain, INSURED At Tairfield, Tex business man W habit.

He died of alcoholism within three months. The companies resisted and the caso was compromised. Many cases of fraud In the physical examination required of all applicants for life insurance are on record. The most of these attempts take the form of impersonation by a strong, healthy man of another who seeks to bs insured, but who is not in good heaith. Not long since two of the officers of a subordinata council of the American Legion of Honor at St. Louis conspired in this way: A man on the verge of death by consumption was im- personated at the physician’s examination by a robust man, . The sick man soon died and b the officers certified to fhe truth of their own cheat. The fraud was discovered and the perpetrators are in state prison. This style of swindling is known as “graveyard in- surance.” The proceedings which brought the Dwight mystery before the New York public were~ begun in March, 1885, when four out of the twenty-six companies in which Colonel Wal- ton Dwight's life was insured made a written agreement with well known detectives, by the terms of which they were to pay the detectives $50,000 ““for the production within six months of Walton Dwight alive upon the production of “evidence that' said Dwight was alive at least one year sub- sequent to November 15, 1878, such fact ty be proved to the satisfaction of the coury and Jury In some of the cases now pending.”” The " detectives failed signally to unecarth Dwight, and the case remains to this day the greatest of insurance mysteries, THE CRANDALL MYSTERY. When Bryant B. Crandall was calied to the bar in” Buffalo a year or two ago to answer the charge of swindiing it was said of him that he had “fooled five insurance companies, deluded his brothers in free- masonry and bafled the detectives for six years."” Prior to April, 1886, Mr. Crandali’s reputation was of the best. He was in the real estate business, associated with Henry W. Box, a popular man at Albany. Cran- 1 was an expert, and ought to have made a good deal of money. He had a happy home and three bright children, the oldest 18. His life was insured in the Northwestern Masonic Ald asscciation, the Masonic Life association, the Ancient Order of United Workmen, the Royal Templars of Temper- ance, and the Empire Order of Mutual Ald, for §10,500. April 1, 185G, he wrote his wifo from Niagara Ifalls that he was tired of lite, wrote to others that he was going to drown limself, and, pinning his card to his hat, disappeared. A corpse was found in the river and identified as that of Crandall by Dr. Green, his family physician, 1t lay burled in the Crandail family lot for mearly six years, The suspi- cions of the Insurance companies were aroused by a statement of the widow that her husbard always wore boots, whereas laced shoes were found on the corpse, Other trifling circumstances increased these suse picions, and the companies finaily agreed to pay the value of the policies to Mayor Blshop of Buffalo to hold as trustee for thres years perding an investigation. If Crandali could not be found in that time the money was to be pald over to Mrs. Crandall. Three years passed and the paid over to Mrs. Crandall, In six years and more after his drowning, Bryant B. Crandall was arrested in Los Angeles, where he had been living ever since his disappearance with a wemun who koew him as Bryant B. Wilson, She betrayed him. Crandall is now explating his curious crime. The insurance companies could not get all their money back, howeyer. Dr. G. W. Fraker of Excelslor Springs, Mo., took his office boy fishing In the Mis sourl river one day last spring, The lad, Jobn Edmunds by name, returned alone and sald the doctor had been drownid. The bady was never found. Dr, Fraker's life was in- sured for $30,000. The Equitable company, which held the biggest sum, has refused paye ment.
