Had a Certificate of Deposit on a St. Louis Bank, A ragged tramp, says a dispatch from Chicago to the Globe Democrat, was found one morning recently under a pile- supported warebouse at S.xiy-third and La Salle streets. He was pounding with a brick to dislodge a dust-covered board that was nailed across two of the joists overhead. When the board was dislodged an old matchbox fell to the ground, and from thi: receptacle he drew a certificate of deposit for $30) on the Boatman's Bank of St. Loui-. He said | e was Dennis Mulligan, and in the course of his twenty years’ roving oyer the Auerican continent he hal accu- mulated $450. He found it a good deai of a strain 10 ask for pie when he had con- cealed about his person enough capital to start a bakery. Accordingly, while in Sr. Louis !ast June he took $300 and deposited it with the Boatmen’s Bank, purposing to devote the remainder to a spree, the gorgeousness and barbaric splendor of which should bean ab:ding memory. He carried out his intention in a style that is «till remembvered by the baricuders of Second street. A week later he was in Coicago with 10 centsand the certificate of deposit. While resting under the shade of the flour warehouse, and still surrounded by tue haze of a week’s unlimited beer, be hid the certificate und preceeded to drift. In Denver he began to thunk ot the §470, but nis memory failed him wien he tricd torecollect what he had done with it. In New Orleans last November he recalled the fact that he had put some money in a bank, but beyond this his memory wasa blank. From New Orleans he went to San Francisco and by easy stages returned to St. Louis, arriving in that city in May. Two weeks ago he passed the Boatmen' Bank and his memory returned. He visited the bank, but was told io bring his certificate of deposit. He went to Ckicago in a treightcar, arriving Tharsaay. After explaining 2l this, Mulligan borrowed a dime, and is now beating his way back to St. Louis, ———— Broke Jail With Scissors. This moraing at 3 o’clock five prisoners escaped from the county farm. George Greer, Till Gannaway, Tip Williams, Cato anda Ed Buchanan, all negroes, cut througn the ceiling of the prison with an old pair of scissors.

In days gone by—those ‘‘zood o'd times,” ere the iron road had superseded the turnpike and electrically prowelled motor-cars were undreamed of—the an- cient town of Hounslow could hold up its bead with the best of them. Several hun- dred stagecoaches and at least 1500 horses were employed In daily transit throu:h the High street, or what was, for most coaches, the first stage on the imporiant road to Windsor, Staines, Bath, Bristol and the west of Encland generally. It was here that timid travelers first expe- rienced uncomfortable spprenensions in regzard to those whom ihey might meet on the road, for only a short way out of the then flourishing Middlesex town began the dreaded Hounslow Heatb. And, truly, ’twas enough to give one pause, for a more desolate and awesome waste than was presented by the noted rendezvous of highwaymen at that time could scarcely ve imagined. To begin with, it was entirely uninclosed, and its area had been variously recoraed at 4292 and 6658 acres. Many and terrible were the stories in circulation as to the bold- ness and ferocity of the footpads and mounted robbers who frequented the hid- ing places in the vicinity, so thatit is no wonder the guards cautiously examined the priming of their huge blunderbusses as the gallantequipages ieft the Be/l Inn bebind tifem on starting across this wil- derness. Moreover, there were many gib- bets to be seen (some even as late as 1830), with their noisome occupants exposing bleached skeletons to the shuddering pass- erby. The Heath has undoubtedly been the scene of many sanguinary encounters be= tween the peaceaule wayfarer and the ad- venturous robber. The great Dick Turpin, although he is supposed to have paid more devoted attention to the York road than to the Bath road, was concerned in many of these exiluits—according 10 well-estab- 1.shed tradition, that is, and to much in- direct evidence which seems to bear the impress of probability. Hounslow Heath was the chief rival in this undesirable sort of notornity of Finch- ley Common. The famous Moll Cutpurse robbed General Fairfax here, and in 1774 Lord Berkley shot a footpad on the road to Cranford. Twenty-four years latter John Meliish, M. P. for Great urimsby, was shot by highwaymen on returning from bunting with the King's hounds. It isalso related that Twysden, Bishop of Raphoe, was shot through the body while playing the highwayman in 1752. Claud Duval, too, is said to have per- formed an impromptu aance witn a charming young captive jon Hounsiow Heath, on which occasion, and in consid- eratiop of the Iady’s complaisance, he re- stored ¢o her £300 of the propérty tound in the coach. Dick Turpin himself appears to have perpetrated no notable robbery on the Heath proper, but it is here that he is reporied to have ‘held up”’ the lawyer on the day that he helped himself to a por- tion of the latter’s cloak for his saddle. It is also related that Dick once met a poor laborer retarning heme on a Satur- day night with his scant pittance hidden in his pocket: under his huge ‘‘smock” frock. The robber happened to be pressed for even a faw shillings and he forthwith stopped the man near a place known as the Avenue, at Cranford. The poor feilow readily parted with ‘‘the siller” on hearing Dick Turpin’s name, but was not surprised to receive a promise that if he would attend a certain place, at an appointed time, the amount would be restored. He did attend, and received not only his own again, but a substantial ad- dition. The story goes that at the first meeting, at the man’s request, Turpin dis- charzed a pistol through his smock frock, so that all benolders might realize thata meeting with the noted rascal had ac- tually taken place. At the same time it should be stated that the tales told of Turpin in_the vicinity to-day are gener- ally tinged with a shade of re pact, if not exactly of aamiration, and he would seem to have enjoyed a well-establishe | reputa- tion for generous and kindly dealing with all the poorer classes with whom he came in eontact.—London, WHEN HOGS ARE RIPE, Information Obtained by Jerry Rusk From s Western Farmer, Governor Rusk happened to drive over the State line once into Wisconsin, look- ing at the farms. He was particularly struck with one farm, on which he found everything in first-class order, and riding up to the house he inquired the name of the owner, when a tall German came out and gave his name as Theodore Louis. “What do vou rezard as the greatest wealth-producing agency in agriculture?'’ the Governor asked him. “The hog,” was the sententious reply. “Upon what do you base this state. ment?” *He lifts more mortgazes than any- thing else.”” The conversation wnich ensued de- i veloped the fact that Louis had once been what1s called an_all-wheat farmer and keps constantly sinking into debt. He decided that something had to be done quickly or there would be very little left ior Louis, so he decided to try the hog. The first year he made a little money, the second year he made more, and then he became thoroughly interested. The result was that he became recognized as a great authority on hogs. His neighbors took up his example, and mortgages began to be lifted; until finally there was not one on record against that community. “How long would you keep a hog?’ asked Governor Rusk. would not keep him—I would kill him.” “When?” “When be is ripe.” “When is he ripe?” “When he is fat.” “Wouldn’t it pay to keep the hog for two or three years?"” “I ftried tbat once,”’ said Louis. *I took a hog in the fall and weighed him, and I took my corn and weighed it When spring came the corn was a!l goae and the hog weighed atout what he did in the fall. That made me say next year that I would kill my hogs in the fall'and save my corn.”’ “How mush does it cost to keep a hog throuzh the winter?” “Thrce dollars.’” ’ “How many hogs winter in Minne- sota?"” “One ion. I have just looked at the Auditor’s report.’” “Do vou mean to say that we lose $3,000,000 a year in wintering our hogs?’ ““Yes, that's what you do. If yon Eill them allin the fali you will have left in your cribs $3,000,000 worth of corn to sell.”—Atlanta Uonstitution. INQUISITIVE SPARROWS. They May Have Been Hostile, but They Didn’t Dare to Attack the Cockatoo, There was trouble and to spare one day last week in a backyard' on Bruoklyn Heights, The cause o it wasan innocent cockatoo, which had flown away from home and found its way to the top of a tree near State street, betw en Henry street and Garden place. Where the strange bird came {rom there is nobody to tell. It was first discovered by the large and noisy éolony of English sparrows which inhabit that vicinity. The first sparrow Lo see the forcigner lost no time in com- municating the news of its discovery to its mates and in thr:e minutes no less than fif y sparrows had assembled to ex- amine the strange visitor and exchange views about him. They took places on all sides of the cockatoo and began a chattering which soon attracted attention from all the neighvoring windows. They hopped about irom branch to branch, but never apvroached nearer than a vard to the puzz'ed stranger. For atime the cockaloo viewed the conclave about him with screnity, but the strain became too much for him and finally found exoression in a series of the most penetrating speeches, accompanied by the elevation of his light vreen plume, which had ypreviously been partly concealed in his fluffy, snow-w! feathers, This demoustration threefold to the wonderment and fri:ht of the sparrows and increased the volume of their cha tering in like proportion. But the unwelcome foreigner <oon found that the chaitering was harmless, and that the suucy sparrows lacked the courage to make an attack. Finding nimself sur- rounded on a.l sides by theiittie nuise ances, he gradually worked his way through one side of the circle and out on the end of a branch, wnere he perched contendly and viewed his tormentors with the caimest indifference. Having found that the intruder would neither take nor zive offense, the sparrows one by one flew away, leaving the cockatoo to take a nap in peace and qu:et. Meanwhile the cat colony of the back yards had heen aroused by the unusnal activity of the feathered tribe, and there had been a gradual concentration of the feline forces near the base of ibe tree wliich formed the cocRatoo’s perch. This meant a cat fight as sure as preaching,and it was not Ieng before the hostilities broke out. Then the dogs had their turn, and the cats disappeuared, but to the last the cockatoo sat unruffl-d in his feathers in the tree top.—New York Sun. SOME NEW THINGS. A simple device to prevent lobsters and crabs from injuring any one with their claws consists of a wire loop pushed over them o hold them shut after they are sprung together. To prevent the hands of cyclers from becoming burned while riding in the sun a wire frame, covered with a light fabric, isattached to the bar near each nandle to project over the hands and keep the sun off. To assist 1n stirring the clothes in the boiler on wash day and lifting them out when they are sufficiently boiled a new clothes stick is attached to the boiler by a clamp ana pivoted so it can be raised and lowered. Two parallel needles ars used in a re- cently patenied sewing machine to run in connection with a double shuttle, thus making it possible to sew two seams in drawing the cloth once across the machine. An adjustable spanner for use in tight- ening bicycle bearings and the like hasa hook with a projecting knob at the end and screw in the side, which can be turned until the spanner fits the cone or nut to be tightened. A device to prevent hens from setting, recently patented, consists of a cloth hood to go over the head, with an aperture for the comb and eyes, the intention being to keep the head upright and notallow it to drop down. A new safety snap hook has asliding bolt in the side surrounded by a spring to force it out against the point of the hook, where it is locked fast by means of are- volving cap fitted with a slot to engage tne end of the bolt. Racetrack annunciators are being made ‘which are desiened to indicate the num- ber of each hcrse, the name of its rider and the time the race is to begin, with movable figures to indicate the time and winner of each race. To assist firemen in replacing a burst length of hose at a fire a new device con- sists of a screw vise with a pair of jaws to compress the hose back of the broken length, which can then be removed and a new length inserted. A recently patented grip or handle at= tachment to ropes or csb es which have to be handled oiten is made of wood bored out to slide over the rope, with a cavity in the side holding a movable plug or block to grip the rope. ~A military bicycie recently patented is fitted with an extension arm projecting in the rear, with a viece of canvas rolled over the handle-bar which can be unrolled and strung from the handales to the end of the arm for use as a stretcher. Pens will never stick in a penholder re- cently patented, which consists of a round wooden handle with a curved metal clamp to grasp the pen when it rests against the side of the handle, the clamp being held by a sliding ring.—Chicago News. Ventilated hats for summer or indoor wear have the crown cut in two sections, the upper half being fastened to the lower by a verforated section, which is covered by a flap attached to the top of the hat to prevent rain from entering inside. To prevent the overflow of kerosene lamps while being filled a disk with a raised flange is placed over the hole in the lamp, with a tube in the center, whica fits snugly around the edges of the hole, so that whatever oil runs over remains 1n tie disk. An sero-electric whistle for u-e in sig- naling or railroads or in the army is com- posed of an electric motor, connected with an air pump, to force air into the whistle, the length of the blast being controlled by a button o~ switch in the hand of the sig- nal operator. In a newly patented cigar-lighter elec- tricity is used to produce the light, there peing a standard to hold an incandescent light, with a endant handle below, hold- ing a platinum plate at the end, over which the two wires meet to produce the heat necessary. For the purpose of taking the measure of a person’s foot for making shoes to order a new device is called the last graduator andconsists of a base on which the foot rests, surrounded by a framework holding a series of points at positions to measure the foot. A newly devised musical instrument is formed of a sounding-board with strings across the top and a bow sel in a sliding frame over the strings, which are de- vressed at different points by the fingers to produce the proper notes when the bow is drawn over them. A handy bag-fastener for millers and grain-dealers is formed of a U-shaped wire with a string attached to one end, the other end being formed into a spring jaw into which the loose end of the cord is palled after winding it around the bag, no knots being used to tie it. A newly designed safety brake for baby carriages is formed of a_pivoted L-shaped member attached to the frame of the wagon near the rim of one of the rear wheels, with a rod running up to a thumb- lever on the handle of the carriage, so that a slight pressure of the thumb will lock the wheel. In a new auntomatic tire-inflater for bi- cycle tires the pump is atiached toaspoke near the valve with the piston-rod exiend- ing nearly to the hub of the wheel, to be raised and lowered by a lever - projecting over theend of the hub to engage the frame as the whesl revolves, thus keeping air in the tire while being ridden, even if there 1s a puncture.
