IETRAYED BY A TACK.
How a Bank Robber Was Brought to
Janice.
“One of the most roman-liable cup.
tures in the history of my experience." .
said a well known detectice. “happened
some years ago. and i need not men
don the place nor the circumetnnccu in
connection with the. case, it was in a
case where. 830.000 had suddenly and
mysteriously disappeared from a bank.
The money was in a package. and one
near the paying teller's window. The
bank was open nnd doing business. for
the money disappeared before it. was
time for tho bank to close. in the
rush of business the tenor led his post
or the window for n minute. nnd it was
while he was gone» that the roll of
money disappeared. He was dumb
founded when he discovered that a
wad of money amounting to 030.000
had disappeared from the amount ho
had on the counter behind the screen.
Diligent scorch was made. The money
was gone. There hurl been no one in
the wickntod inclosuro but the. teller.
lie was fcari‘nlly diati‘csiied. Ho did
not know what to make of it all. The.
bank oflicinlnrwere badly puzzled. An
examination of the outside of the
wooden framework revealed a run
small triangular scar on the wood—
work as if some person had attempted
to climb up to a position where the
money could be reached. The money
was back several feet from the win»
dow, The scar was freshly made and
it looked very much like the imprint
of u peculiarly shaped inch in the
hcoi o a shoe. , Probably twenty days
later a member of the detective. force
happened to be passing through a
prominent hotel. A stranger was sit
ting in the lobby. and he was striking
the heel of his shoe with a pencil with
brass on tne end of it. which he had in
his hand, and it made a sort of choking
round. The detective'a attention was
arrested. He made inquiries of the
clerk with reference to the man. The
clerk know nothing about him except
that he had been at the hotel for some
time. The defective concluded that no
would take a long‘chance. “‘He arrest
ed the man. His trunk. vanae and room
were searcher]. No moneygtould be
found. The prisoner all the time new
giving out excited protestations. Final
Iy the, oilicere tnought they would
make a close examination of the mat
tree. it was a happy thought, for they
found the money. and the ”0.000. was
