EXPERIENCE. OF A BOW STREET RUNNER.
- O
One of my journeys called me away to a
town in Suffolk, where I was ordered to take
charge of a prisoner to be discharged the next
day from one of the local jails,in which he had
been undergoing a, year's imprisonment for a
criminal assault. The man had been let out
on a ticket-of-leave from the Defence hulk at
Woolwich, and had speedily, as it appeared,
got into trouble down in the country. 'As he
was merely "wanted" to complete his original
sentence—having broken his ticketoofleave—
there could be no bother about apprehending
him inside the prison, and using such pre~
cautions for his safe keeping ~asvscemed best
to my judgment.
Just as I was about to leave the office in Bow
street, one of my comrades with whom I was
rather intimate came in,having finished a jour-
ney such as I was myself about to set on on.
‘ ‘Going out, Tom 1’” he asked; and, on my
telling him where I was bound for, be con-
tinued: “Batter have this ‘barker,’ Tom, you
may find it usefu ." At the same time he
produced a small pocket pistol.which he held
out for my acceptance. “I have not got any
powder,".he added, “buthere aresome caps
and bullets." It seems needless to' remark
that this was before 'the days of revolvers
and, patent cartridges; we hadthcn to load
in the old fashion,:and had merely. got as far
as the introduction of the percussion cap. I
had never before carried anything more
deadly by way of protection than a life-pre-
server, but as my friend seemed to mean a
kindnt v, I made no ado about accepting his
offer; :.nd, having “capped” the pistol then
and til-.l'e, I consigned it to the side pocket
of apilot coat, which I wore buttoned over
my uniform. ‘
My? journey down to Suffolk calls for no
particular notice. In due time the railway
deposited me at my destination, and left me
with ample leisure to call upon the governor
of the prison over night with a view to
arranging 'for my carrying off my charge the
next morning. I asked ,what sort of a
customer I would have to deal with,_and must
confess I did not feel much encouraged by
the reply.
“He is what I would calla nasty customer,”
was the answer. “He has given us a deal of
trouble while we have had» chargeof him;
continually breaking prison rules, and more
than once he has tried to commit suicide in
the most determined manner by tearing open.

The inn whereIhadI-taken up my quarters
stood right opposite the jail entrance, and as
the street was somewhat of the narrowest,the
most complete view of all comers and goers
could he commanded from the front of my
temporary residence. As my landlady knew
the errand I had come on, and had a most
becoming respect for the representative of
the law, she very kindly accommodated me
with her own private parloras a sitting-room;
and a very pleasant evening I spent in the
company of the intelligent daughter of the
house, business leaving her mother but little
time to bestow upon me. Next morning
found me seated at a very - comfortable
breakfast, and, the weather being fine, the
window of the private parlor was open,
affording a perfect view of all that might
take place at the prison’ door opposite. While
., I was absorbed in the good cheer before me,
I was startled by an exclamation from both
the'landlady and her-daughter, which caused
mé—to 100k up, and instinctively to glance
across the street. .
“Did you ever see such a big, coarse and
clumsy-looking woman 1’” exclaimed the
younger of. my entertainers.
“Or is it a woman at'all a" added the mother
My attention was at once rivited upon the
new comer, whom I somehow could not
avoid connectingwith the criminal it would
so soon become my duty to apprehend.
Without saying a "word to the two ladies, I
carefully and closely watched every move-
,ment of the party opposite during the
remainder of my morning meal. More than
eyes I caught myself mentally repeating my
landlady’s query, “Is it a womauafter all f"
The “must be excused, as the point was so
extremely doubtful. For a woman, the
individual was very considerably above the
average height, and her whole physique indi-
cated far more than the average strength of
woman—kind. There was ‘a swagger in her
walk, too, ,most unlike the carriage of a
female ; "and once during her pacing in front
of the jail door she stopped to adjust a boot-
lace, or some such matter, in a fashion which
showed an entire absence of deliclicy, and at
the same time showed a limb 'which might
have done credit to an athlete in the highest
state of training. I was fairly puzzled, and
none the less so that I had twice noticed her
ringing the prison—bell,and that I knew there
was but one individual to be discharged
that morning, and that it was close upon my
time to go and look after him. I had barely
finished my last cup of coffee, when one of
the prison, warders came across to say that
the 'wife of my prisoner was waiting outside,
and had twice made a demand to see him,but
that the governor did not care to accede to
the request without first consulting me.
After casting the matter over in my own
mind for a minute, I told the warder that I
did not mind the woman being admitted, but
that the two ought to be very closely watched
during the interview. The man re-entered
the prison, and within a few minutes I
observed thbt‘the woman was called in.
Punctualto my time, I crossed over to the
prison, andEIOund my charge waiting for me,
his wife being still with him, and no one in
the room but the governor. Contrary to. my
expectations,-the prisoner held up his wrists
and submitted to be handcuffed with” the
most lamb-like docility. When we got out
into the street, I suggested, as there was
.to get into hiding.”
time to spare. that the stalwart pair should
have a bit of breakfast at my expense, before
starting on the journey for town. I thOught
the woman seemed a little taken back at my
invitation; however, it was acceded to; and'
we entered the inn parlor. where I requested
the landlady to produce a plentiful supply of
ham and eggs; and as the pair preferred ale
to tea or coffee, I ordered thema pint apiece.
.I had, of' course, to unlock one hand in
order to allow my prisoner the free use of
his knife and fork; and after what I had
heard the night before, I thought it was
rather a risky thing thing for me to do, as,
though he might not attempt to do me any
mischief, it was just possible he might try to
inflict some serious mischief on himself.
All, however, passed off safely, and when
breakfast was-finished, I told 'him he must
bid his Wife good by, as I did not want to
attract any attention atthe railway statioa.
A kiss was accordingly exchanged, the
bracelets were again adjusted to his wrists,
and we set off at a brisk pace.
When we got to the station, I learned that
the next “up” train was an express, and that
I would have to look sharp, as it might be
expected immediately, and made but a brief
stoppage. The train in fact came in almost
to a minute after the information was com-
municatcd to me, and I hurried across the
platform, got my man into a second-class
carriage—the compartment I had only just
time to notice was empty. The whistle
sounded, and the train ‘was beginning to
move, when the door was flung violently
open, and in jumped the prisoner's wife,
taking her seat right opposite to me. There
was but just time for the porter to slam the
door when we were off. It need not be said
that I was very far from being satisfied with
the look of things, and that I had made up
my mind to be carefully on my guard. I said
being fully determined not to betray any
uneasiness, though it must be owned I felt
much. Bgfore we had gone any great way,
my prisoner turned sideways to me and said:
“Master, my missus and me have some small
matters of our own we would like to talk
over; and, as they don't concern you in the
least, p’raps you wouldn't mind looking out
of the winder for a minute or two while we
have our talk."
“That I could not possibly do,” was my
immediate answer. “My duty is to keep you
always under my eye and control, and, be—
sides, as you have just said, your domestic
arrangements can be a-matter of no concern
to me, so. you can discuss them as freely as
you please without minding my presence.”
This answer seemed to disconcert both of
them; but as if by way of compromise, I at
the same time leaned towards the window ‘of
the carriage for a moment,'and glanced out-
side. My hearing is sharp enough now, but
at the time I speak of was even more acute.
Just as I turned my head, I heard or fancied
I heard the man whisper the words: “Both
together." Instantly the words flashed across
my mind that these words related to myself,
and I'turned round and faced the couple in a
moment. What I saw in the expression of
each of them seemed to warrant my acting
with immediate decision. I seized the man
between his manacled wrists so that he could
not raise his hands. With an instinctive
thought, I plunged my right hand into the
pocket of my pilot coat, pulled out the pistol
my mate handed me, cocked it with my
thumb, and, holding it within a few inches of
the face of the woman opposite, I looked her
steadily in the eye, and said with emphasis:
“If you attempt to stir before we reach the
next station, you will certainly be a dead
woman I”
It was something fearful to notice the im-
meuiate change on that woman’s'countenance.
She becameu)! a 'pilll'd'w‘hiteieis's,“and'her
lips had the purple—bluish tinge that indicates
so unmistakably an access of deadly fear.
In the highly dramatic positions I have just
described we sped‘on' ‘until— the next station
was reached.and;that occupied fully more
than twenty minutes: 7; The moment the train
came to a stop',’ Ijithds addressed: the .woman,
keepi her “covered” with the muzzle of
my pistol: "Leave the carriage; 'and if you
value your liberty, make what speed ‘you can
She disappeared instanter; and I felt a
heavyfilboad of anxiety lifted on my- mind
as 'slife‘gleft us, for of all the encounters I
most'h‘ate, an encounter with a woman is to
be classed foremost. From the moment I
saw the change in her face indicative of such
intense fear, I knew I was master of the sit—
uation; but still I was glad to be rid of all
further risk of a struggle. Not a word pass-
ed bstwecn my prisoner and me during the
remainder of the journey to London, which
we were no great while in reaching, and
where I duly delivered him into safe keeping
at the Bow street police office.
Next morning I had to conduct my pris-
oner to Woolwich, there to deliver him to
the authorities of the hulks, from whom he
had obtained his ticket.of.leave. He seemed
to have recovered from his scare of the day
before, and on our journey spoke freely
enough, and with an earnestness that left no
doubt of the truth of his communication.
“Master, ” said he, “I am main glad you
kept your head yesterday, and did not lean
out of the winder. Had you done so, missus
andI meant to have pitched you out, and
taken our chances after of getting off.”
“I was not very likely to be so easily put
off my guard,” was my laconic answer.
“Ay, “ but master, your danger was not

put us out, for it cowed missus, and she isn’t
easily cowed,I tell ye. ”
“But the pistol was not loaded,” said I—-‘
“nothing but a cap and an empty barrel.”
' “All the same, master. I’m glad we failed.
Now I’ve thought it over, I know I could
not have escaped. It was known I was left,
in your charge, and. that missus joined us.

spotted at once, and most likely both on us
would a swung for it. I’m main glad, I tell
you, that you got out of the mess, and I

your duty as a hoflicer.”
Never before, to my knowledge, had I
been in such deadly peril, and truly thankful
did I inwardly feel for the providential
escape I learned I had just made. I was
glad to hand my murderous-minded prisoner
over to the care of the ofilcers of the Defence;
and Iain. thankful that'I never heard more
of him nor wish to do so.——0hambn-’s Jour-

Women Need Pockets.
The Methodist puts in a plea for the more
general use of pockets by women,and quotes
from Harper’s Bazaar the story ofaboy
who, when brought before the judge for
snatching a pocketbook from a young lady,
said he was hungry and could find nothing
to do, and added: "The fellers all say to
me, says they, ‘Jimmy, why don’t you
learn the finger business and grab pocket-
books from these here women all goes around
showin' them and temptin' such hungry
fellows as you?’ and I thought I‘d just try
it for once; but I .got nipped and won’t do
it again.", The. Methodist says :' The re-
mark is often made: ‘There is no excuse
for- .such carelessness; a woman can just as
well carry her money in a safe placeas a
man can.’ This is certainly the way the
average man feels about it; but is it quite
true? Is there not some excuse? The
feminine system of pockets is wretcliedly
meagre and'deficient, and stands greatly in
need of reform. We hope the attention
now being attracted to the subject may in—
duce an effort in that direction. Look for
a moment at the immense difference both
in number and inconvience between the
pockets ina man’s dress and in a woman's.
Coats, over and under, each with four or
five pockets ; vest pockets of an equal num-
ber, outside and inside pantaloons, with
their side, hip and fob-pockets, making as
many as twenty which a man may wear at
one time, every one of them safer and more

boast. She may have in her lek-it de-

pocket inserted or appended, under protest,
by the dressmaker, since in the long, closely
‘moulded, basque now worn a pocket makes
an unsightly bunch on its smooth surfaces.
The idea of clinging flatly to the figure ex-
tends to the skirt of the dress, and there
is really no pocketable territory until low
down and far backward a little fullness in
the drapery allows of a departure from the
severe outlines. Even then the pocket
must be ornamented or;it must not be; then
a 'patch of fullings and plaitings, trimmed
with buttons and blows, is set jauntily on
one side; but it is areceptable to which
nothing more valuable than a handkerchief
ought to be entrusted. Where, then, can a
'woman safely carry her purse 1’ In the under
skirt—the real skirt—there is a pocket, one
pocket, which might be useful but for
certain impediments. With the long, cling-
.ing over skirt rigidly drawn and. fastened
backward, completely covering it, It is a
safe pocket—so safe and so very difficult of
access that it is always tempted not to see
it at all. The careful and prudent, who are
reckless of appearances, defy impediments
and use it sometimes; but the physical dfiii-
culties to be overcome are great, and the
effort is always ungraceful and sometimes
ridiculous. ' _ '
Where, as in the cithie purse is in con-
stant requisition, the difiiculties amount to
a practical prohibition. W'e would recom-
mend carrying, for small expenses, small
sums in a more convenient if less 'secure
place. Men who provide the money for
feminine expenses would like to secure the
co-operation of every sensible woman in the
land demanding of the fashionable makers
and the.dressmakers greater safety, conven-
ience and number in these very desirable ap~
pendages of a woman’s garments."

AN OLD s'ronx REVIVED.
Since the prevailing Indian troubles cum—
menced an Indian camp was captured,togeth-
or with a number of prisoners. including
squaws, and some half. dozen white captives,
boys and girls, from five to twelve years of
age. Word was sent throughout the country
inviting those who had lost children to come
to the camp and identify, if possible, their
children, as none of them could give any
account of who their parents were, or where
they were taken from, so young were they
when they were taken captives by the Indi—
ans. Numbers went to the camp—many
more than there were children—and, of
course many of them returned with heavy
hearts at being unable to find their lost ones.
Among the number who went hundreds of
miles to the camp was a mother who had lost
two children—a boy and a girl,one three ‘and
were made to persuade her not to go, as so
long a time had elapsed it was ,certain she
could not identify her children, even if they
stood before her. But she could not rest;
she must go, and she did. On arriving at
the encampment she found the captives ranged
in line for inspection. She looked at them
first from a distance,her anxious heart bound-
ing in her bosom. But she did not see her
children—at least, she saw nothing in the
group that bore the slightest resemblance to
her baby boy and girl as they looked when
playing about her doorstep. She drew nearer
and peered deep into the eyes of each, who
only returned her look with a stony gaze, yet
anxious one; they too, hoping to see someL

their mother. She looked long and steadily
at them, as her heart began to-sink and grow
heavy in her bosom. At last. with tears and
sobs, she withdrew, and when some paces 03
she stopped and turned about quickly, as,
apparently a thought had occurred to her.
Drying her eyes, she broke forth in a sweet
hymn she had been wont to sing to her chil-
‘drenasa lulaby. Scarce a line had been
uttered, when two of the captives, a boy. and
girl, rushed from the line, exclaiming,
“Mammal mamma l” The mother went home
perfectly satisfied that she had found her
long lost children.

Jeremiah T. Denison, M. D.
Dr. Jeremiah T. Denison, of Fairfield, Ct.,
whose death at the age of seventy-four years
is announced, was for many years prominent
among the medical practitioners of his native
State. Dr. Denison was born in New Haven,
graduated at Yale College, studied medical
and surgical science in Paris, and, returning
to New Haven, took his medical degree in
1827. He began the practice of his profes-
sion at Warehouse Point, Connecticut, from
which place, after, two years of successful
practice, he returned to New Haven and as-
sociated himself with Professor Knight.
Several years later he established himself in
Fairfield, where he lived for almost
forty years and where he has just died.
About twenty-eight years ago, and after a
'close examination, he adopted. the principles
of Hannemann and, in 1851, became the first
President of the Connecticut Homeopathic
Society. of which he was one of the foun-
ders. In recent years Dr. Denison had been
unable to attend to the more laborious duties
‘of his profession. He was a man of strong
character, kindly and courteous at heart and
in manner, and many persons who could not
support his professional views will regret to
hear of his death—Tfibune.
Dr. Denison’s first wife was Miss Euretta
Roosevelt, of New York, niece of the wife
of Professor Jonathan Knight, of Yale Col-
lege Medical Department, who was a native
of Norwalk, son of Jonathan Knight, M. D.,
an old physician here, who lived at the bend
of the street which bears his name.

Green Peas for the Garden.‘
This is one ofthe vegetables which market
gardeners sow early in the spring. We have
for several years urged upon farmers the
desirability of having a considerable quant-
ity of pens for family use. They precede
green corn, and certainly of the early vege—
tables there is none so delightful as the
green pea. Children, who are sometimes
averse to green vegetable food seldom refuse
tender green peas, especially when they
are cooked “thin,” or in plenty of juice
with just a dash of sugar. There'are va-
rieties in plenty which are so sweet of them-
selves that sugar is superflous; but'children
have a “sweet tooth,” and sometimes the
olders can stand a little extra sweetening.
Many of us remember that in our childhood
days the strong, unctuous and sometimes
bitter marrowfat pea was cooked “to death”
cooked until it was a sort of mash or mush.
Our housewives are learning that nothing
is lost in nutriment, while much is gained
in ,deliciousness by cooking peas, as the
children say, “thin." Indeed, one of the
most delightful, though perhaps for hard-‘
workers not very substantial or “filling,” of
soups is one made from green peas. The
finest varieties are the wrinkled sorts. Ep-
icures seldom now-a-days fancy the plump,
solid varieties, like the marrowfats, which,
we confess, are very productive and salable'
It is best to plant early, for the early plant-
ings produce the greatest results. The pen
is hardy. The soil should be warm and
light, and the authorities agree that if the
ground has been manured the year previous
results are best. Indeed, we cannot too
strongly recommend fall manuring. Never-
theless, we have seen a good result from
clover sod, spring plowed, with the addition
of barnyard manure and superphosphates.
The objection to manuring in the spring is
that the peas run too much to straw. A
chemist told us last year that his experience
was that peas got their best flavor from soil
which contained no strong manures; yet
we triedphosphates and had The most de-
licious peas we ever tasted. The ground
was, however, finely worked, while another
plot, badly worked and badly hocd, produc-
ed nothing but weak blossoms. On the
successful plot we planted peas which had
been started in stratus in old boxes. 1n
boxes of strong loam, with just .a little ar-
tificial fertilizer, we placed two inches of
soil to'a fair sprinkling of peas, moistening
each layer, and then put the boxes near the
stoves, occasiofiaily sprinkling with tepid
water. In two or three days the peas had
sprouted a quarter of an inch. The soil in
the garden was ready, and the boxes taken
outside were given a shake against the
ground, the :peas were loosened with their
soil, and by a sort of gentle screening be-
tween the fingers, so as not to break the
sprouts, the peas were tenderly planted in
rows and as tenderly covered and slightly
patted with the flat of the hoe. They were
above ground in thirty-six hours, and pro-
duced a fine crop. Market gardeners us-
ually soak their seed for five or six hours
before planting in dry weather, and usually
the drills are watered. Old celery land is
good for peas. Harris recommends that it
is best to plant peas as soon as the ground
is thawed out enough to cover them, say
three or four inches. He also recommends
artificial manure at the rate of a tablt-
spoonful to three tablespoonfuls 'to the foot
to the drill. Two,in our opinion, are abund-
The drills should be about two and
one-half to three inches deep, and two or
three feet apart. For the tall varieties we
find better success with double rows, so
that the brush can be placed between them.
These double rows should be six or eight
inches apart. And do not forget that peas
need hoeing. The bushing should be done
when they have grown about six. inches
high. As soon as the peas are picked the
straw should be pulled, as it exhausts the
soil. It is a mistake to put off the plant—
ing of late peas. If’ planted with the
early ones they will ripen later any way;
but they may be.plauted late for succession.

The Blessed Dead.
Bishop Quintard, a native of Stamford-in
a beautiful discourse on the death of Rev.
C. C. Parsons, published by E. P. Dutton
d7 COL, Says;
We know that our beloved ones are among
the jewels of Paradise. They live on; for
death is not the passing of the spirit into
a long sleep in an unknown abode; it is its
blissful passage into the land of light and
rest, where is the fellowship of the angels
and the saints of God. We have fellow-
ship with them ; they are ours still, and we
give God thanks for the “good examplers;"
and even amidst the joys of Paradise our
beloved ones cling to us in love, and their
hearts are beating high with that love for
us wherewith they beat on earth, The
ties of earth live on in the eternal world,
for these ties are creation of God. They
are one with us in the fellowship of Christ;
fol-lugs; one with us in :thc communion of
saii‘s:
“Angels and living saints and dead
But‘me communion make." -
And so we cheer our heart with that won-
derful hymn,which Cyprian sung to animate
his flock to face with courage the pestilence
that dislocated Carthage 'and North Africa,
and join with angels and all the powers of
heaven, the cherubim and seraphim, the
glorious company of the apostles. the goodly
fellowship of the prophets, and the noble
army of martyrs, in the worship of the
Triune God, who gives blessed hope of ever-
lasting life.-——Nezoark Ohm-oer,

intended, and publishes'the ingredients that,
in his estimation, give it its moth-proof
properties. He says the paper is saturated
with a mixture of seventy parts, by measure,
of'the oil remaining from the distillation of
coal tar napiha by live~steam. with five
parts crude carbolic acid, containing at least
fifty per cent. of phenols, twenty parts of
thin coal tar heated to about 160 deg. fah-
rcnheit, and five paits of refined petroleum.
After saturating, the paper is passed through
squeezers and over hol rollers for the pur-
pose of drying. No doubt this paper will
be tested this year, and if it keeps moths at
bay successfully, is certain of securing a
large market in this country.

Since 1873 my catarrh grew rapidly worse, so that
my life was despaired of. At that time I wel -
ed 17? ounds, butgrew emaciated so rapidly t at
I welg ed only 139. After consulting the most
celebrated physicians in the Western states. and
spending many hundred dollars, from which no
relief was obtaimcd, I was induced to try your
Sulphur Bitters. At this time I had lost all faith
in medicines, but was surprised to find the relief
I received f'i om the first bottle. After taking six
bottles in . headache. vomiting and all the effect
of my bil iousness and liver complaint left me.
The Sulphur Bitters reduced the Inflammation,
which affected in left eye (so that it would be

all signs of my catarrh was gone. Last Darch,

Dear Sirs :—
For more than twenty-five years I was a suf-
ferer from Dys epsia, accompanied with severe
attacks of sick eadache. I have also been troub-
led with Canker in my mouli and stomach. I
have tried a good many kinds of medicines with
little success. A short time since I was request-
ed to try your Sulphur Bitters for Canker. and
have found them all they have been recommend-
ed to be—a sure cure for that disease. 1 have no
doubt they are also what they are claimed to be
as a cure for Dyspepsia and sick Headache.
Yours respectfully,
GEO. P. HAWES.
Sulphur Bitters is the medicine for the Tem-
perance people as it does not. contain Alcohol
and is not a stimulant but an invigorator. There
is more virtue in one dose of

than in all other Bitters of the day prepared by
irresponsible parties who know nothing even of

kept rcadyforiuimediate resort will save many
an hour of suffering and manya dollar in time

Simmons’ Liver Regulator is certainly a

it claims to cure. If any of our fellow be-
ings are suffering from hepatic disorders
and have doubts in relation to the efficacy
of this popular preparation. we can only
offer them the simple nn‘d candid argu-
ment of Phillip to Nathaniel. “Come and
see.” Try the proposed remedy and then
you can judge for ourselves-Rev. 'Dn-
vld Willis, Pastor o Presbyterian Church,

The Month of May.
[In the Roman Catholic Church the month of
May is dedicated to the Blessed Virgin.
Allis divine ,
Which the Highest has made,
Through the days that ho wrought,
Till the day when he stayed—
Above and below _
Within and around,
From the center of space
To its uttermost bound.
In beauty surpassing ,
The universe smiled
0n the main of its birth.
Like an innocent child,
Or like a rich bloom
Of some gorgeous flower,
And the Father rejoiced
In the work of his power.
Yet worlds brighter still,
- And a brighter than those,
And a brighter again.
He had made, he chose ;
And you never could name
That conceivable best,
To exhaust the resources,
, The Maker possessed.
But I know of one work
Of his infinite hand
Which special and singular
Ever must stand, '
So perfect, so put-g, _ .
And of gifts such a store,
That even Omnipotence
Ne'er shall do more.
The freshness of May.
And the sweetness of June
And the fire of July
In its passionate noon,
Munificent August,
September serene,
Are together no- match
For my glorious Queen.
0 May! all months .
And all days are thine own.
In the lasts thfijoyousness
When they are gone,
And we give tothee May.
Not because it Is best, '
-But because it comes first,
And is pledge of the rest.
—John Henry Newman.
Two Drummers-A legend of the
Road.
(Chicago Tribune.)
It was two rival drummers
The merits that did blow
Of safes were in St. Louis made
And safes from Chicago.
They chanced upon a merchant
Who Iain a safe would buy,
And in the praise of their houses' wares
The drummers twain did vie, -
Each striving to see which would construct
The most colossal lie.
Up spake the St. Louis drummer,
“Once a man a cat did take
And locked the animal in a safe
Of our spperior make. '
“They made a bonfire round the safe
With tar andkerosene, ' .
And for four-and-twenty hours it blazed
With raging heat, I ween.
“The fire went out, the safe was cooled,
And I will forfeit five . ,. ”1, . .
Hundred good dolla‘r‘s’if that cat:
Did not come out salve.” ,
Then mild'unspake and'answered'him
' The Chicago safe agent: ' ‘
“With our safe one dayiwe'did essay
The same experiment. '
I We placed the safe selected on
Of Warner bed-l .
And pitch-pine we heaped in 0mm! ~steeped
Till the iron glowed bright red ;' ,
And in forty-eight hours we ope’d’the ate,
And alas! the cat was dead!"
“Was dead ?'Aha 1" his rival cried.
With a triumphant breath;
But the Chicago man replied,
“Yes, the cat was froze to death!"
No word that St. Louis drummer spoke,
But silent he stood and wan,
While the Kansas merchant an order gave
To theChicagoman. ; .
