He had hardly reached Hot Springs, when, ip! He made $25,000. How he made it Is not material. He wrote to Mrs. Pang that ho made it and came home with it done up in a rubber band. Bang, it is stated, was nervous bout carrying so large a sum around with him. Therefore he banked $5,000 and pinned $20,000 in the lining of his west. The reason he didfitt put the $70,000 in the bank, it is asverted, Is that he wanted to invest it. Buried the $20,000. Now, on the night of April », so it !s paid, Mr. Bang went to bed. The $20,000 Was secured in his vest with hasp pins. Undressing he placed his vest on Bm chair, On his vest he placed his Rrousers, over the trousers his shirt, over shirt his coat and under- garments.
