HORSE THIEF lRlPs.

Nowadays when you compare a man to a
horse thief you wish to degrade him. Thirty
years ago a first class horse thief excited a
certain amount of admiration’r ,and respect.
In these days of rapid transit, telegraph,
telephone and police one can‘sc‘arcely realize
the success which horse thieves won before
the war. They were, the dread and the
scourge (if the‘farme‘r and the villager. They
were better organized-than any other class of
eliminals, and not only stole with nerve, but
with system. In 1856 there was a; gang with
headquarters in Ohio, \whichgnurnbered at -
least fifty members, and whichha'd agents in -
almost every state in the Union. I have seen
legal documents to prove that horses stolen in
New Hampshire found their way to Georgia,
and that horses: stolen in Kentucky were
traced to points in Kaine. It was no hap-
hazard business. ‘Spies’ were sent out to lo-
cato horses, and then men‘followed to steal
them. When a horse was taken he was sent
to a certain agent, a farmer or livery man,
kept a certain length of time, disguised, if
necessary, and then forwarded tbs nicecond
agent still further away. In this manner he
was passed out of the state and hundreds of
miles beyond, and not one was recovered
where fiVe were successfully run off. While
the crime was madg a yery ,sgrious one under~
thelawof aim ,, ., I fl ,1 ,
looked upon by ‘ ic‘lpa‘fits' is being any-
thing compared to burglary, highway rob-
bery or arsonf, This accounts for the fact
that men who were honest in all else were
caught passing along stolen horses-“W, . -

The years _1857-8 were 4:: _ f» "yiilays of
the horse thief. In 1858 a general movement
was made against the fraternity all over the
country, breaking up andxscatteriug organ-
izations, and the beginning of the war fin-
ished the business. Except in the far west,
the horse thief now acts independently and
alone, and ili'iflf‘fihmmflnfi :gets safely off
with his prime”. l Dnrblgftbe two years I have
named my father'had a farm in central In-
diana. I was 15 years old, and my health
was so poor that 1de do no work. Be-
‘twcen 1856' and 1857 we lost six horses by .
thieves, not one of which was recovered. One
day a sheriff who was on the trail of a thief
visited our place and gavcvme some pointers,
and he wasno sooner gone than I began to
plan and scheme. We hadat that time seven
good horses, and among them was a span of
greys which had taken a state fair premium.
The sheriff said we ,would have to stable them
in a bedroom ingthe’ house tp,keep them, and
the impendingki l-"set ‘my ‘wits to work.
Father had a large mercantile business in the
village three miles away and the. farm was
in my charge all day. We had good barns
and the best of locks, and we also had a
couple of watch dogs, but our horses had
been stolen just the same Indeed, when the
last horse went, the tigeféz; Oaxed away the ,
best dog. The stable ddbr‘was‘double'lOcked,
but he had used skeleton keys.

0n the third day after the sherifi’s visit a.
couple of s , ers drove uplinabugy. One .
of them ca :' .. intlzoducedfi himself as ,
the ageuté . 0 ’5 Cincinnati 5li‘ghtliing rod ‘
company, and hsked the privilege of inspect-
ing the rods which had been put on the horse
barn the year before. He said they were his
company's rods, but did not seem to be prop;
erly amxed. This was one day in May, and .
the span of greys were in the stable. The
strangers seemed honest and straight, but the
sheriff had warned me to look out for all
comers, and I themfore had my eyes open.
He not only 1 _ ~, at the rods, but he in-
spected the staplesEEahd edjnmined the‘doors '
and locks. 86;? " gs itcurred‘ to satisfy
me that he , . tdfspy outshe situa-
tion, and fiifi the 'pair had driven away I
began preparations for a visitor. There was
what might -' be called a vestibule to the
stables. As you opened the door there was a
space of about nine,bygtw,elye feet before you
reached the first stall. I’got space of green
hickory six feet long, and shaved it down to
the size of an ax handle. One end was
pushed into a hole bored in a girt of
the stable, and by means of a piece of
clothesline I drew the other end back until
the wood would stand no more. In front of
this how or sweep I rigged a cord rlmning

 

 

 

 

acres the . gangs-airy a pgrtition'
and then d ' " lfifind’bf tgsweem'yvhere
I rigged a figmae p was" setth’e

cord was a at four feet inside the door and
across the way to the stalls. The cord ran
across knee high, and a moderate pressure
against it pulled down the catch and let the
how 5 ring back. This bow was arranged at
. a heig t of five feet from the floor, and after
a few experiments I was satisfied that it
would work all right. From the end of the
bow, as it was bent back, ran a string over
the hen house and pig pen to my chamber
window, 2(1) feet away. I there fastened it to
a bell, and a ring of the bell would mean
that the bow had been sprung. The hired
‘ man slept near by, and both of us had fire
arms. My father,,. who .dr'ove...hqme each. .
night. was quite “bk , “was the invention;
and Was to turn oilt vii ’usat the alarm.
Four nights passed without an alarm. On
the fifth nightjt was dark and rainy, and I

felt so smtfiwmebody would come that I
did not . ‘ '3‘ dither-did the hired man.
“’0 sat reading, when: at a quarter to 12, the
bell suddenly rang and lifted us out of our
chairs. IVs seized our guns, ran down and
awoke father, and lighted the lantern, and
in four or five minutes the;,three of us were
at the barn. The stoble‘do‘br 'was‘ wide Open,
and on the ground outside lay the body of a
man. He had picked the fucks and entered,
and he haddstruckzthecord and sprung the
sweep. It had caught his throat, and he was
as dead as n herring. He was a man of
about m. well dressed, and had $60 in his
wallet. From letters found on him therebvas
no doubt that he was one of the agents of an
organized gang. Indeed, there were two of
them. The other sat in a buggyiu the road,
and as we came out he drove off; No one
could identify the dead man, and, after an
inquest, be was buried in a. corner Of the
village graveyard. ,

The papers had a good deal to say about
the adventure, and of course gave away my
invention. The next man who came would
be informed, and would take care to avoid
it. I must, therefore, have recourse to some-
thing else. I sent off to St. Louis for a bear
trap, and as soon as it arrived we planted it
in front of the stable door. It wasa monster
mp, intended to hold‘tulithing which got its
foot between the javvs, and we had to use
levers to beardown the sprin Not one of
our neighbors‘nor one'of the y workers on
the farm knew of the arrival of this trap; but
all knew that the hickory spring had been
done away with in the stable. We pretended-
to believe that the one lesson would keep the
fellows awaygforggrfln, toeorne. :L'One day,
about three *OEeks‘h ' the burial of the
horse thief. a man who had come along and
hired to us to, .dig La. ditch to drain a pond
made an excuse 1361' 'visit the horse barn. I
was aslel p at the time; but the hired man
reported that his actions were suspicious.
He probably. wanted to see if any further
pitfalls had been prepared, and he was doubt-
less gratified when be found the way to the
gray horses clear of danger.

One of the jaws of the trap when set was
toward the house. I fastened the bell string
to this, and whenever the jaws‘. sprang the
hell would sound an alarm as before. The
ditch digger slept in a room on the other side
of the housefand' we did not set the trap
until he was‘iu b‘ed. 0n the third day after
his inspectionof ,the stables. he announced
that he must go to the village in the evening
to make some pun-bases. We set the trap
at 9 o‘clock and at half-past 10 the bell
rang. We were waiting for it, and We were
out in two or three minutes. The bear trap
had its victim, and the victim was our ditch
digger. Of, 5th; howling, yelling, curs-

him. The sudden surprise and the pain broke
him in two, and even before 5v; got him out
of the trap he confessed it to home to
work for us with the sole ideal)! stealing the
gray horses. He was sent to jail, and when
his trial came on he went to prison fonthree

mve‘rrxfiis leg was‘soqffijuTed in the tfiip
that. it had to be amputated to save his life.
The papers gave my bear trap away, as a

matter of course, and I must now look for,
some other defense. The thieves would _' _
hereafter keep clear of the stable door. Oc-*

tober had ' now come, and the long nights
were the glory of the horse thief. There
was an underground stable to the horse barn,
and the doors of this were never looked, as
we were not afraid of our cows being taken.
The, only doors to the barn proper were a
pair of big doors and the stable door. The
big doors were so well fastened on the inside

‘ 'that no one could open them. All attempts

had been made by the small door. I now
figured that the next comer would enter the
stable below and ascend to the horses above
through one of the hay boxes running down
for the cows. There was one empty stall,
and this .happened to contain the lar est
aperture above. Once up stairs the t ief
could lead the horses from the stable to the
main floor, and then out of 'the big doors.
One ascending by the hay box would pass
under a beam out on the main floor. To this
beam I fastened two poles eight feet long in
an upright position and -six feet apart. I
then sawed off a two inch plank to the right
length, bored a hole in either end, and with
the help of the hired man and a rope and
pulley, hoisted 'it up and slipped it over the

.poles. We arranged it to have a fall of

seven feet, and increased its weight by fas-
tening a block of stone at either end. When
drawn up by the rope and pulley we ran the
rope through a ring in the floor, attached a
wire, and ran this wire to a catch. A pres-
sure of a pound on the wire released the
catch and let the plank down with a. smash.

We were undisturbed for about four weeks
after the sentence of the bear trapyietim.
Then astran'ger who said he was a drover
fgom Cincinnati called one day to‘look at some
of our stock. We were stall feeding three or
four steers, and the drover was shown to the
underground stable. I was watching all his

~movements, and I saw that he gave the

empty stall and the big hay box particular
attention. He had heard of our adventures,
and when I gave him to understand that we
feared no danger except by the small door he
had a twinkle in his eyes He praised the ar-
rangement of the stables, and thereby made
an excuse for stepping on the edge of the
manger and looking u the hay box. He
could see that one climb ng up there would
come out on the main floor, but he could not
see what I had in store for any one who tried
it. On that night everything was in readi-
ness; but it was five nights before the victim
appeared. I had a string running from the
plank to the bell in my chamber, but this

,alarm‘wesnot needed.» It was-II believe, the
.‘8th of ’October. The weather had been

threatening all day, and at dark 11 drizzle
set in. About 8 o’clock in the evening some-
thing disturbed the hens, and the hired man
went out to investigate the trouble.
He heard somebody calling from the
barn, and we went out to dis-
cover that we had a prisoner under the
plank. It was not the drover who called to
see the fat steers, but otough looking fellow

about 25 years of age who had got the'

pointer. He had come early, so as to get a
long start before daybreak, and under the
idea that no trap would be set until our bed-
time. The heavy “weight had come down
across his back, and hp had been so badly
hurtthat he could hardly move. When we
removed him we sent for a doctor and before
10 O’clock the thief was told that he could net
live until morning. He was at first very sul-
len and defiant, but as death came nearer he
began to weaken. At midnight he asked us
to send, for the sheriff, and when that official

f. arrived the thief made a startling confession.

He gave away the names and residences of a

score of agents, told the officer where to find ,

fifteen or twenty stolen horses, and, in brief,
made a complete exposure of the whole busi-
ness. Our horses, had he got them, were to
have been sent to New York or Boston.
died about 5 o’clock next morning, while dio-
tating a letter to his mother in-Chicago.

‘ The confession was a windfall for the
sheriff. He moved rapidly, and within a
week almost every member of the gang in
the state was in limbo. Arrests followed in
Ohio, Illinois and other states, ' and horse
thieving see. business received its death blow
before Christmas. In our village the hotel
keeper and the liveryman were arrested,
tried and sent to risen, and in other towns
it came out that wyers, doctors, and even
postmasters had been in with the gang. In-
diana recovered at least seventy-five valuable
horses which had been run out of the state,
and at least thir men were sent to prison.
It was, as I. d .the breaking up of the
whole business. an it was all brought about
through the fall of a plank which a count
boy and a farm hand had hoisted into pos -
tion.—New York Sun.

 

A Realistic Religious Statue.

A few miles below Namur the road ran
close to the cliff, the trees shut out every ray
of sunlight, and as I rode along there alone
in the deep shade I glanced up against the

.dark ledge, only a few feet from the road-

way, and there, hanging against the rough
rocks where I could almost touch it, was the
naked body of a man, covered from head to
foot with blood. The first view was a. shock
of horror that I shall not soon forget, but
when I had dismounted and walked back to
the spot I found that the bloody corpse was
the samefigure I had seen, on canvass and
in plaster, at Antwerp and Brumels, painted
by Rubens and carved by sculptors less fa-
mous, more than fifty timw within the last
two days. I had seen Christ dead, dying
and resurrected in almost every conceivable
sha ,but nowhere, was he reprdsented in
sue ghastly form as he was there under the
shelvmg rocks by the roadside. There was a
small stone but close by, but nothing else to
indicate that the lace was fre uented b

Study of the Irish Language.

In these days when society is always ready
to follow a new craze, it is passing strange
that no one has thought of taking up the
study of the Irish language. Our ears have
been greeted by raspy Italian, catarrhal
French and even Russian, . Arabic and
Chinese. All these tongues have been studied
by the enthusiastic young folks, who always
attack a new thing as if they would tear the
soul out of it by main strength. But the
loft, liquid tones that are nearer than any
other language extant to the original Celtic,
which, you may beanrolling so richly from
the lips of hundreds of Irish girls in Pittsburg,
is utterly neglected. ‘

Here is an opportunity. Let Bridget be
brought into the parlor during thevwinter
afternoons and evenings. - Let her teach her
language to her employers in her own way.
She will probablybe unable to give gram-
matical rules or to explain from a scientific
standpoint why she makes certain sounds to
express certain ideas, but she will give you
the exact intonation of the soft gutturals,
rendering them with those peculiar inflec-
tions which are never perfect save from Irish

 

filips.‘ It msyperhaps be dificult to see any
commercial use from the study of this lan-

guage, but it would surely open up a vast
library of ancient lore that has hitherto re-
mained locked in the bosoms of those who,
from lack of educational advantages, have
been unable to give it to the world.-—Pitts-‘

Treatment of Seasickness.

The French physiologist, Dr. Dastro, has
been making curious experiments with ani-
mals with the object of determining the
causes of seasickness. The creatures have
been subjected to various kinds of motion
corresponding to the rolling and pitching of
vessels. Dr. Dastrc found, on examination,
that the intestines were thereby strangely

displaced and violently thrown against the.

diaphragm, and he presumes that a similar
disturbance produces scasickncss on board of
I- ship. To counteract this irritation, Dr.
Regnault is stated to have administered
cocaine with excellent results. Another
French physician, who attributes seasickness
to the same causes as Dr. Dastre, reports
that be has discovered two infallible preven-
tives—one a mixture of atropine and strych-
nine and the other caffeine—Chicago Her-

THINK BEFORE YOU VOTE-

Some of the Things Free Trade Would Do
for America.

Plunder the poor.

Enlarge poor farms.

Multiply tenement houses.

Shrivel the public revenue.

Drain the country of money.

Drive labor largely to the land.

Lower the standard of comfort.

Scale down all salaries and profits.

Revive here the British colonial system.

Inundate this country with foreign. goods.

Turn the balance of trade against us.

Destroy our capacity for cheap production.

Universnlly reduce the value of farming
I. III].

U "settle all forms of mercantile business.

Instantly cause a paralysis in iron manufac-
'ture.

Increase farm products and diminish the
market. _

Strike the skilled laborer first and most
severely.

Destroy the possibility of diversified cm-
pioyment.

I’III'ulyzc the arm of the worker and empty
his pocket.

Add greatly to the wealth of the rich and
make the poor poorer.

Leave skilled labor the alternative of idle-
ness or English wages.

Close up thousands of mills, factories, fur
naccs and workshops.

Empty the building associations of their
tens of millions of dollars.

Throw the south back to the one general
industry of cotton raising.

Ilille our pockets to swell the incomes of
greedy foreign corporations.

'l‘uke from the home of the artisan the com-
forts and necessities of life.

Free trade will do all tho-so things.

DEMOCRACY MEANS mum TRADE.

 

THE CORRUPTION FUND.

Raised to Influence Voters in Cleveland”
lehnlfl
TlleDemocratic campaign fund continues
to grow in a. significant way that bears nc
promise of an honest election.
The list now stands:

 

 

 

Roswell P. Flower ..................... $25,006
Dr.Norvln Green. president Jay Gould’s '

telegraph company .................. 10,000
Grover Cleveland ........... 10,006
Calvin Brice ................... 250,000
W. L. Scott, the “coal baron“ ......... 250.0“
Secretary Whitney and the Standard

Oil company ......................... 250,0“
Postmaster General Dickinson .. . 10,00(
J. F. Jones .............................. 50,006
Jay Gould ........................ Blaulrlcheck
Secretary Endicott ..................... 1,000
Expected from Federal officeholders

under pressure ....................... 1,000,001],

Total to date .......................... $1,856,001:

The understanding is that there are other
subscriptions promised which will swell the
amount to two and a half million dollars,
which will be the most prodigious campaign
fund ever raised in this or any other country.

Five hundred thousand dollars will pay the
legitimate expenses of the campaign.

What do the Democrats expect to do with
the remaining two million?

The Tariff in Australia. _

In the parts of Australia. where there is a
protective tariff wages are higher than they
are in any other part of the world, says The
New York Press.

P. J. Murphy is an Irishman who went tc
Australia twenty-six years ago. There was
no tariff on imports there then, and Mr. Mur-
phy has a very vivid recollection of a great
soup house for the poor on the top of the
highest hill in Melbourne. In 1867, under Sir
James McCulloch, a 10 per cent. duty was
laid on all articles which the Australians
were ableto produce themselves. Mr. Mur-
phy was trying to make shoes at the time
and had eighteen men employed; in one year
after the tariff laws were in operation
be employed 120 men. \Vagos, as well as
prices, went up again four or five years later
under the Sir Patrick Gavan Duffy tariff oi
25per cent,and the Australians begun tc
build machinery and locomotives, make stce‘:
rails and operate foundries and mills. There
was no use for the Old soup house or! the bill.
Mr. Murphy is a builder now, and under the
present tariff of from % to~42 per cent. pay:
his carpenters and masons three times a:
much per day as the same kind of workmen
get in England. He says that if anybody
should seriously propose free trade in Aus-
tralia it would start a social and political
revolution, and he doesn’t understand how
\vorkingmen in this country, and especially
those of his ownracc, can be fooled for a min-
ute.

Sixty Cents a Day.

“While in Brussels, Belgium, last summer,’
said W. H. Perkins, “I saw some skilled in-
borers making spiral steel car springs, such as
we use on our freight oars. They receive (it
cents per day, while our blacksmiths receive
$2 for the same work. I asked the Belgian
proprietor why he didn’t pay more. He said:
‘I am handicapped. IVhen I get $100 worth
of car springs into New York harbor (for i
sell my car springs in America) I have to so.-
lute your Yankee flag and give up $5 .’ "

“Where does that come from i" I asked.

“It comes of! my men's Wages,” he said.

“But suppose America had free trade I"

“Free trade!" he exclaimed; “why I would
flood the Yankees with car springs. I would
treble my works to-morrow."

“But wouldn’t that break our steel ca!
springs makers up I" I asked.

“Yes, for a. while. "

“How long l”

"Why, till your men worked for (30 cent:
per day as our men do."

This tells the whole story. How can any
wage corner in the country vote for President
Cleveland's re—electionl Bread, meat and
clothing shouldbe more to any man that ever
life long affiliation with any party whose
policy becomes hostile to his best interests.—
San Francisco Chronicle.

At the \Vliite House.

“Daniel!” remarked the president to his
private secretary the day after he had stirred
up the country with his retaliation message.

“Yes, sire,” responded Daniel, meekly.

“Do you think that war is likely to follow
my message?“

“It is not at all improbable. sire.
ple appear anxious for it.” ,

“I hope not, Daniel; but if the people are
over hasty and plunge the nation into the
bloody vortex, may I, who have done you 54:
many favors, ask one of youl"

“Certainly, sire. I will only be too glad tc
render you any service. Name it, sire.”

“chll, Daniel"——and the chief magistrate'!
voice sank—“in case of war, I will need a sub
stitute, and there is no man in whom I could
more implicitly trust my war record than ix:
you. “’ill you be my substitute, Daniel I”

Daniel's cheek poled, but his word to hi.-
chief had been promised, and, bowing his head
he left the room—IV. J. Lampton.
