SAFE BANK VAULT.

Hundreds of Thousands of Dollars and
Valuable Account Books »Uniojnred.

NEW YORK, Nov. S.—The vault of the
gutted Empire State bank was opened,
and its contents were found to be abso-
lutely intact.
ed on their regular combination by Presi-
dent James W. Conrow. He was .accom—
panied by other ofiicers of the bank, and
the party was surrounded by a. cordon of
police and central office men, in charge of
Captains Eukins and O’Brien.

Therd was a murmur of surprise when
the first of the bankbooks was handed
out. It did not Show the slightest sign of
fire or water. 'The tons of molten iron
and redhot masonry that had buried the
safe for the 36 hours had not made the
slightest impression upon the books and
papers of the bank.

The work of transferring the contents
of the vault to the old Bleecker Street
Savings bank, the temporary quarters of
the Empire State bank, was abig one. It
took over an hour to accomplish the feat.
President Conrow and an assistant inside
the vault handed the different parcels to
policemen and employees of the bank.
Each load was checked off by Vice Presi-
dent Eimsheimer, who stood on a heap of
smoldering bricks just outside the vault.

The distance to the temporary quarters
was scarcely a quarter of an ordinary
block, being diagonally across Bleecker
street. It was a difiicult piece of ground
to cross, as the route lay over smoldering
brick and masonry and a tangled mass of
warped iron beams and pipes. The men
worked with a. will and staggered over
their rough path. as if they enjoyed the
novelty. Vice President Eimsheimer car-
ried a package himself. It was 'a brown
leather sample case. This case contained
$320,000 in bank bills. Another package
contained $800,000 worth of securities.
Heavy bugs 0 silver were transferred as
quickly as possible.

At 10:45 the vault was cleaned out as
thoroughly as if Jimmie Hope and his
friends had interviewed it. President
Conrow was jubilant at the condition he
found everything in. He said:

“The vault has done just what it was
built to do, and although I a A, not sur-
prised I cm pleased beyond measure that
our books and papers are in absolutely
perfect condition. The business of the
bank went on under difficulties yesterday.
We can now go on as if nothing had oc-
curred.”

The transfer of the money and securi-
ties was watched by an immense throng,
that blocked Bleeckor street, near Crosby
street. It, in turn, was watched by at
least a. score of armed men from Cap-
tains Eakins’ and O’Brion’s squad.

The fire is practically out, although the
upper floors of the Manhattan Savings
bank building are still smoldering.

THE DETROIT HORROR...

Probably More Than Forty Killed—Twen-
ty-flve Bodies Taken Out Already. ‘

DETROIT, Nov. 8.——Twenty-five bodies
have already been taken from the ruins of
The Journal building, which was wrecked
by an explosion yesterday, and the search
still goes on. Eight bodies were taken out
today, 17 having been recovered previous—
ly. One of those recovered is unidentified.

The others are: Adolph Schrieber, Jr,

bookbinder in Hillers’. bindery; John
Gordon, electrotyper Evening Journal;
Kittie Leonard, M. Rosa Morgan, John
Breitenbrcher, Jennie Niebauer, 16 years
old, employed in Hillers’ bindery; Thorn
Weidbusch. 19 years old.

There are yet 20 persons missing, swell-
ing the probable list of dead to 40 or 45.
Besides these, 19 persons were more or less
seriously injured, two of them fatally.
The cause of the disaster has been defi-
nitely ascertained as a boiler explosion, but
what caused the explosion is still un-
known.

Boar Admiral Shufeldt Dead.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 8.—Rear Admiral
Robert W. Sh‘ufeldt, retired, died at his
residence, in this city, today; after a long
illness, following an attack of the grip
and an accident While driving about a
year ago. He was appointed a midship-
man from New York May, 1839, became
rear admiral in May, 1888, and retired in
1884. He had a most notable record, hav-
ing opened Korea to the world by treaty,
surveyed the Tehuantcpec oanulroute and
played an important part in the civil war.

THE MOHIGAII’S INSURANCE.

Effort of the Underwriters to Bcsmirch
Dr. Herring's Character.

LONDON, Nov. 8.——The bearing of the
suit of Dr. W. Conycrs Herring of New
York to recover $15, 000 insurance on the
American schooner yacht Mohican, de-
stroyed by fire last March at Shorehcm,
Ehgland, was continued today. The un-
derwriters refused to pay the policy, de—
nied that the yacht was lost and in the
alternative alleged that the fire was caused
by the plaintiff or his agents.

Dr. Herring today was again cross ex-
amined regarding the young New York
girl, Letitia Thompson, who, it is alleged,
Was abducted by the doctor when the
Mohican sailed for luyal from N cw York
early during the present year. He denied
having been guilty of immorality with
his second wife, formerly Miss Mabel
Harris of Booth Bay Harbor, Me” to whom
he was married in Jersey City in Novem-
ber last, after his first wife had secured a
divorce from him. The latter subsequent
1y married Montague Eder, a. classmate at
Oxford of Dr. Herring, and who was said
to have been his partner in the purchase
of the Mohican with the announced pur-
pose of going into pearl fishing on a. large
scale in the south Pacific after the yacht,
which had been refused insurance in New
York, had been refitted at Plymouth,
England, in which country-elm was after-
ward insured.

The evidence adduced today showed
that the Mohican was senworthy and of
more value than the price Dr. Herring
paid for her. The witness swore that
most of his books and papers were burned
on the yacht, and that therefore he was
unable to furnish the court with certain
dates and facts asked for. He denied that
after leaving the yacht on the evening of
March 7 last, the date of the fire which
destroyed the Mohican, he returned to
her and was alone on board for several
minutes. ' -

The manner of Dr. Herring, who is a
son of William Herring, the promoter of
the Georgia Central railroad, while on the
stand was painfully nervous.

Letitia Thompson and Mrs. Herring
were present in court during today’s pro-

oeedings.

Elections In Utah.

SALT LAKE CITY, Nov. 8.-—The Salt
Lake Tribune says Wells, Republican can-
didate for governor, has been elected by a
majority of 1,500; Allen, Republican con-
gressman, elected by a less majority, but
all indications point to his safety and a
Republican legislature.

MIMICRY AND REASON.

Indication That This Monkey Is Endowed
With a Share of Each. ‘
“That the monkey possesses intelli-
gence to a considerable degree is proba-
bly true,” said a hotel proprietor who
has a small menagerie on his premises.
“I believe, however, much of the intel-
ligence with which that animal is cred-
ited is due to his love of mimicry.
“The other day two ybungmen with
two girls were at the monkey’s cage
feeding him peanuts. One of the girls
was chewing gum, .and one of the men
suggested that she give the monkey
some, expecting that if he .took it in his
mouth it would stick to his teeth, and
he would make sorry work of trying to
chew it. The girl at once parted with
the surest morsel she was so industriOus:
1y chewing, extending it toward the
cage. The monkey grabbed it instantly
and put it into his mouth, but instead
of chewing it, _or attempting to, began
pulling it out in small ribbons, as_chil-_
dren are frequently seen to do. When
he had it all out of his month, he rolled
it into a compact ball between his
hands; threw it into his mOi'ith and be-
gan the operation again. He appeared
to enjoy the performance as much as his
visitors. That was imitation. ”
“That’s-all right,” rejoined another,
“but I had an experience with that
same monkey wherein he displayed in-
telligence. I was by the cage smoking
one day, and I thought to annoy him by
blowing smoke in his face. I was much
surprised to find that, instead of being
annoyed, he enjoyed it, as was evi-
denced by his edging up as near me as
possible to receive the smoke in larger
volumes. Soon he began scratching
himself at the point where most of the

smoke came against him. When I had '

smoked one Side for a few minutes, he
would turn squarely round to have the
other side treated in the same way.
Then he sat up directly in front of me
and‘received the smoke squarely in the
face and neck. I don’t know whether
he held his breath, but he did notcough,
sneeze or wince a particle. To complete
the job he then sat with his back toward
me, and it would have done you good
to have seen him threw his hind 'feet
over his back and scratch. It made me
think of the kickers of a hay tedder in
motion. Now that monkey knew,
through some sort of intelligence, that
nothing will send fleas and other insects
to the surface or stupefy then 235 effect-
ively as tobacco'smoke.”—U;ica Ob—

COLLEGE GIRLS AND MARRIAGE.

Bits of Confession That Throw a Light on
the Question.

I have no doubt that theremaining
cause of the low marriage rate is that
many men dislike intellectual women-—
whether because such women are really
disagreeable or because men’staste is at
fault I shall not try to determine. And
even among those who like them as
friends may -‘ feel as the youngman did

'who made ;-_'.s confession:

“I never I .;pected to marry the sort of
girl I did. You know I always believed
in intellectual equality and all that
and had good friendships with the col-
lege girls. But, you see, you girls hadn’t
any illusions about us. After you had
seen us hanging at the board on problems
you could work and had taken the same
degrees yourselves, you couldn’t imagine
us wonders just because we had gone
through college, and when I met a dear
little girl that thought I know every-
thing—why, it just keeled me right
over. It was a feeling I had no idea of. ”

And the college woman answered:

“I will betray some . ing to you. Lots
of us are just as unreformed as you. We
want just us much to look up to our hus-
bands as you want to be looked up to.
Only of course the more we know the
harder it is to find somebody to meet the
want. Probably the equal marriage is
really the ideal one, and everybody will
come to prefer it some day. But per-
sonally I like men to be superior to me.
Only I’ll tell you what I don’t like in
them—the wish to keep ahead of us by
holding us back, like spoiled children
that want to be given the game and
then admired for their skill. If men
would encourage us to do our very best,
and then do still better themselves, it
ought to be good for civilization.”—
“The Marriage Rate of College Wom-
en, ” by Milicent W. Shinn, in Century.

No Precedent.

During uvsession of the territorial leg—
islature of Montana, held more than 30
years ago, a measure was introduced,
which appeared to some people to in-
volve serious constitutional questions.
One man, who was supposed to possess
great oratorical powers, declaimed fierce-
ly against the measure, claiming that it
was “clearly in Opposition to the great
principles of Magna Charta, which the
brave barons in days of old had wrested
from King John, a blessed result of a
bloody conflict. ”

A lawyer, more famed for his sturdy
common sense than for erudition, rose
immediately to reply to this burst of
fiery eloquence, evidently bent on mak-
ing it clear that be for one was not to
be overcome by high sounding words or
obscure allusions.

“It’s of mighty little importance
what the opinions of King John and his
man McCarthy were,” he announced
firmly, adding that it was high time for
legislative bodies of Montana to think
and act for themselves without any refer-
ence to the principles which governed
the remote authorities quoted by his
colleague. -

The first orator’s speech had made
some ‘impression, but the retort Was re
ceived with the enthusiasm which it
deserved, and it was owing to his in-
fluence rather than that of his more
brilliant predecessor that the measure
was defeated.—Youth’s Companion.

NORWAIK— GAZETTE.

AT A TENEMENT WINDOW. .

Sometimes my needle stops with half drawn
thread. , -

(Not often, though. Each moment’s waste
means bread, .

And miming stitches leave the little mouths
unfed. '

I look down—on the dingy court below.

A tuft of grass'is all it has to show,

A broken pump where thirsty children go.

Above there shines a bit of sky so small

That it might be a passing bluebird’s wing.

One tree leans up against the'high brick wall,

And there the sparrows twitter of the Spring

Until they waken in my heart a cry

0f hunger that no bread can satisfy.

Always before when May time took her way

Across the fields I followed close. Today

I can but dream of all her bright array.

My work drops down. Across the sill I lean

And long with bitter longing for unseen

Rain freshened paths where budding woods
grow green.

The water trickles from the pump below

Upon the stones. With eyes half shut I hear

It falling in a pool where rushes grow

And feel a cooling presence drawing near.

And now the Sparrows chirp again. No, hark!

A singing as of some for meadow larlr.

It is the same old. miracle applied

Unto myself, that on the mountain side

The few small loaves and fishes multiplied.

Behold how strange and. sweet the mystery!

The birds, the broken pump, the gnarled tree

Have brought the fullness of the spring to me,

For in the leaves that rustle by the wall

All forests find a tongue. And so that grass

Can with its struggling tuft of green recall

Wide bloom filled meadows where the cattle
pass.

How it can be but dimly I divine.

These crumbs, God given, make the whole loaf
mine.

H ER ALARM CLOCK.

And Why She Bad Good Reason For Be-
ing Incensed Against It.

A suburban woman not long since
purchased an alarm clock. It was a fat
nickel plated little affair with the cus-
tomary gong stop. The woman got the
clock because she felt an overwhelming
desire to play the role of the early bird.
That night, therefore, she set the time-
piece according to the specified direc-
tions. But for some reason or other the
clock failed to go off. The woman gave
it a second trial. Again it played her
false. She took it to the suburban jew-
eler? He said the clock was outrageous-
ly out of order, hinted darkly at the dis-
honesty of any individual who would
palm off such an article as perfect goods
and prescribed a. course of treatment
which he would be gracious enough to
administer for the hum of 75 cents. The
clock’s original cost had been $1.50.

The night that it came back from the
sub'LIrban jeweler the woman wound it
up with a feeling of unassailable secur-
ity. This time the role of the early bird
would be hers for certain. The next
morning, however, it failed to go off,
just as before. The woman took it back
to the suburban jeweler, who received
it with an “I told- you that clock was
terribly out of order. ” Encore, 75 cents.

Time passed, the clock, like the cat
in the canticle, “came back,” and the
woman woke up (some hours later than
she had intended) only to find that it
hadn’t “gone off” again. She now took
the troublesome timepiece 'to the city
jeweler from whom she had first pur-

chased it. He declared the clock to have

been all right until “ruined” by the
suburban jeweler, but consented to re-
pair it—also to charge $1 for so doing.
The woman then here it home in tri-
umpb.

Next morning, though, the same Old
drama was enacted, and the woman was
once more unable to assume the role of
the early bird. Had she been a man she
might have sworn. 'As it was, she con-
fided her woes to the breakfast tableful.
“ Why, that clock’s been going off all the
time,” obServed the woman‘who occu-
pied the neighboring room to the clock
owner. “It’s waked me up every morn«
ing regularly. The trouble is it hasn’t
waked you. ”

Whereupon the woman felt more in-
censed against the clock than ever. To
think of its having so little discrimina-
tion and discretion as to wake up the
wrong person !—New York Sun.

 

Queer Facts About Air.

The celebrated chemist of the six-
teenth century who amurd that it would
be impossible for u: to live on ‘ the
earth’s surface if the atmosphere should
suddenly increase to twice its present
thickness could not have been far wrong,
after all—that is, if the experiments of
Dr. Arnott are to be taken as conclu-
sive. In his observations on atmospheric
pressure at the bottoms of the deep
mining shafts of Europe, Professor Ar-
nott has found that the change between
the readings of a barometer at the bot-
tom of a. 4,000 feet shaft and one at the
surface is great enough to warrant him
in making the statement that air at the
bottom of a shaft 20 miles deep'would
be as dense as water. Figuring on the
same ratio, he finds that if a hole could
be sunk 40 miles into the bowels of the
earth the density of the air at the bot-
tom would be as great as that of quick-
silver.—St. Louis Republic.

Women on the Bicycle.

What a pretty thing a woman on a
bicycle is! Her pose is good. She sits
erect and rides easily, gracefully. Most
men stoop while riding. Women sit
erect. Men always seem to be on busi-
ness bent and in a hurry. Women appear
to ride for pleasure and in no hurry.
Men have the bicycle face, arising, it is
said, from the care they have to bestow
to avoid accident. Women have the air
of easy indifference, uncOnsciousness of
risk. They ride as the true goddess
valked.—Cincinnati Commercial Ga-
nette.

'The world of reality has its limits.

The world of imagination is-boundless.

In Holland and Belgium to kill a

'stork is considered one of the greatest

misfortunes that can happen to a man.

ALMOST
EVERYTHING
FOR
HOUSEKEEPING
Oilcloths, linoleums, Oil—
Stoves, tinware, crockery,
glassware, silverware,‘ pic—
tures, lamps, curtains, lace
curtains, portieres, bed cloth:
ing, carpets, rugs—one can

scarcely-think of a, thing, ex-'

ce ting stoves and furniture,
that is not here in abundance
—just as you’d like to find
them if you were on the
point Ofbuyincr. It is a spe-
cially good place for young

housekeepers, beginners, who '

are tackling the mysteries of
‘ l-zee‘pinff house ’ for the first
t inc—everything is so rea-
sonable, so good.

And another thing, the
most expensive item in the lot
—-Carpets—may be bought at
a cash price and paid for a lit-
tie at a. time, thus enabling
one to use their ready money
in other directions, for other
necessities. ‘

It is only quite \recently
that we introduced this sys-
tem of payments and it
jumped into pOpularity at a
single bound.

The ‘ Fountain of Fra-
grance ’ is now at play ; deli -
cute and delightful—Lily of
the Valley.

 

Favorable comment upon .

ourJackets and Furs from
everyone who sees them——
men as Well as women.

Fur Boas and Mufi‘s are
commencing to sell, princi-
pally because it’s good choos-
ing time; and they’ll be in
quick demand later on.

 

No questions of color or
combinations of fabrics can
come up but that the Dress
Goods department is ready to
help you. If it requires an
expert, he is here. Old col-
ors possess so many new
names and new fabrics are
hampered with such odd
titles that oftentimes we are
called upon to distinguish
from the mass of productions
such goods as you are looking
for.
