"ir was cashier of a bank in Pennsylva- nia a good many years ago," said the man who was traveling on a deadhead pass, "and atter a couple of years I 'made up; my mind that thugs were too slow for 'me. In other words, I decided to gobble up what money I could and skip for En - !rope .and go into business on my own hook. I bided my time, and one night, when I knew I could lay my hands on about $90,000, I prepared to bid the town goodby. I had a key to the bank and , an - !other to the Vault, and as we had no watchraan inside I had no trouble in get- ting in. • It was about midnight when I made my raid, and 1 hadn't openedthe Vault yet, when the bank door _was an - locked, and the president enteked. • lad an empty carpetbag under his arm and got weak in the knees when kal saw me. •We hadn't passed a questioa whiz anothef key clicked, and the manager wa- tered. He also had an empty carpetbag, and he also got weak in the knees. Tke three of us sat down; each witk an empty bag at his feet, and looked at each other for a long Utile. It was the president who spoke first, and he said: "I was worried about the funds in the vault." "So was I,!' said the manager. "So was I," I added. "And hadn't we better see if they are safe?" "I think we had." "So do I." "Then the president unlocked the vault, and the three of us stepped inside and assured ourselves that the funds were all right. As we came out and the doors were locked behind us he said: "I found this -old carpetbagon the streetas I came along." • "And I found this," said the manager. "And I found this," I added. "There was an interval of painful si- lence, and we all walked out together. Tire outside watchman came up as we did so, and the president observed: "Special meeting, you see, James. You'd better go inside for the rest of the night." "Yes, inside," said the manager. "Yes, inside, James," I added. "James was locked in the. bank," con- tinued the ex -cashier; "and we bade each other good Inight and separated. It was an even up thing so far as it went, and it ought to have been so to the end, but the honest man' is always tho one to suffer. Next day I got the bounce. The presi- dent said that he and the manager had been thinkir things over and had come to the cone usion tient I had been tempt- ed to rob the bank and would have got away with; every dollar if they hadn't happened te show .up. I was honest in acknowledging it and liad to go, and I be- lieve they had their salaries raised for their zeal and solicitude." — Chicago News. The Alert Little Chipmunk. • An acquaintance surprised me the oth- er (ley by the question, "What is a chip- munk—itow. does he differ from a squir- rel?" I thought everybody knew this gay sprite I of the roadsides. - He is a true squirrel, about the Size of the corn - men red oMeaund of the same reddish tone, which, 'like the brother of the trees, is much brighter in winter than in sum- mer, when the long, warm, handsome fur, suitable for cold weather and the nuptial time, is replaced by a warm weather suit of a cooler, shorter and paler sort. His distinguishing marks are two white stripes along the side of the back from • the fore shoulder to the root of the tail, each bordered by a black line, making him the prettiest of our lesser quad- rupeds and giving to him, as with erect ears and trailing, busby tail he scuds along the fence or scampers in and out of a brush pile --for he is a true ground squirrel, rarely going even upon the trunk of a tree—an air of dandy pride and alert- ness that is most engaging. In the far west there are four lined and checkered ones. Our chipmunk is the familiar of the old stone walls, and where in some parts of. the country these are disappearing the chipmunk is disappearing, too, whilemany a skunk and woodchuck also find them- selves dispossessed.—Lippincott's. Colder and Bare Hands. Many people marvel why they suffer so frequently with cold in the head. The matter has puzzled even the omniscient doctor, . and his only explanation was that some persons were constitutionally inclined that way. . Investigation shows, however, that it is all due to the heeds, _ No matter how warmly you clothe the rest of the body, you readily catch cold if you leave the hands exposed. The master is very sitnplo after all. Of course -every one knows- that the blood and blood vessels contribute a sort of hot water warming apparatus for the body. As the bands are more exposed than other parts, they receive a more liberal supply of the heating fluid. But this blood is immediately chilled and re- turned in an icy state to the lungs. Here It sets up inflammation, with the natural consequences of congestion, which is comnaouly called cold. If you take care to wear gloves on any day that'is rather chilly, It is astonishing what a lot of colds you will ward off.—Cincinnati En- quirer. Wanted a Hun For His Honey. An Austrian, coming up on a recent steamer, fell in with two sharpers, whe led him Into many _wagers. They were so invariably successful that he became sus- picious that they were "fixing" the bets, but each new proposition was so tempt- ing that he could not resist it. At last, as they approached the Golden Gate, he counted up tlae remnants of his roll. "Gentlemen," Ito Said to them, "I find I have ,just $22 in American money left. Now, I will risk it all if you will name this last bet." The others were curious, and, knowing they could not lose much, consented, and asked what his proposition was. "It is this," he said. "I'll bet you $2.2 that I can yell louder than the ship's steam whistle: Of course I'll lose," he Added, "but, by jingo, I know the whistle can't be fixed."—San Francisco Argonaut. Siamese Customs. Siamese paupers and criminals are not cremated when tbey die, but taken to a temple, where their bodies are cut in three places and laid out in the temple inelosure, where they are devoured by pariah deg, and a flock of vultures kept there for that purpose. The Siamese count their years by sets of 12, each year beariag the nae some animal. Persope born in years the animals 6f which are hostile must net marry.

General Gomez expects to settle down to peaceful pursuits. It's a rather late ' decieioe, but hero's hoping he will have a good long chance to test the benefits of the change.—Cleveland Plain Dealer. Gomez should be careful how he ex- presses a willingness to become president of Santo Domingo.
