and who hcslived for some time
j during she past two years in Sil

in Southern Co'orado :
* A daring robbery has been com
united- The officials of a well
known banking institution in a
town in southern Colorado, upon
reacLiug ihe building discovered
tLa' a side door had be».i biokun
open, the fastening of an 1 ner
door forced, and the safe contain -

tents. A eareful search of ihe
premises revealed the body of the
watchman iu an adjo.ning vacant
lot pierced with knife wounds, eov
ered with bruises, showing the
evidence ol a sti uggle, and that
more thud one ptraoa was engag

ISooU the wuole cou ifcunity was
.uoused, and lie sheriff with a
posse of armed and mounted men
was reaily no s. art on hie nail
of the murderers, But who were
they, aed where could they be
found, weie easier to ask than to
answer.
“On the floor of the banking
room was foUud a large hrimuud
sombero, decorated wi'li peculiar
rpanglcs, and which several citi

obtained, also tne infonnation giv

or of the the town aDd governor
of he state offered rewards sever
a' thousand dollars. This induc
ed a large number of determined
and brave men to join in ihe pur
suit, which was prosecuted for
:.nora than a week without result.
“Finally one of these parties,
competed of three of /he best Iron

some minutes without result,whtn
one of the despotadoes fell moital

the tiring until their amani'ion

A singular case of domestic rela

they settled in Esperence, I". A

eloped with a rommerical traveler,

taking a deep interest iu her, ob

t iey were finally married, taking
up a reaidmee in Schoharie oonn

In some way the girl s mother
learned of her marriage aud decid

lit uttered a fierce oath and ex
claimed ;
“Come on! Do you want to .ive

/ he appeal was irresistable, and

A shell strich the wncei of a

Virginia Valley, bio own so diers

somewhat strained in their rheto

ning engagements that maiued
that disasLous campaign, a pti
vate in one of the western rtgi
incuts was mortaly wounded by a
shell. Seeing the man's condition
a chaplain knelt beside him, and
opening his Bib'e at rand< .u, read
out Sampson's slaughter of the
Pbilis'.iues with the jaw bone of
an ass. He had not quite finish,

A column of troops was push

A hall was at once sounded,and
the leading brigade ordered for- j
ward to uncover the enemy's posi

scrambling up tne sleep incline,
officers and men gallantly racing
to see who could reach /he crest
first. A young Lieutenant and
some half dozen men gained the
advance, but at the end of what
they deemed a perilous climb,they
were thrown into convu'siocs of
laughter at discovering that what
the signal men took for Confeder
ate troops were only a tolerably
large flock of sheep !
As the leaders in this forlorn
hope rolled on the grass in a par
oxysm of merriment, they laughed
all the louder at seeing the pale
but determined faces ol their com
lades, who, of course, came up ex

My Dear Son : Your letter of
last week 1 cached us yesterday,

have by me at Ihe present lime. 1
may sell the oiber shoieuex' week
and make up the ballance of what
you warned. I will probably have

that don't nm ter so Ion;' ns
are getting an education.
I hope you will get your educa
tion as cheap as you can. for ;<
pa von. anil me ike

want von to be so that you can go
anywhere and spell the hardest
word. I want you to o<* able to
go among the Romans or the
Medes or the Pirsinns air' ‘a k to
any ot them in their own native
tongue. Mind you I don’t com
plain. I Jknew education came
high, but 1 didn’t know the clothes
cost so like sixty.
I never had advantages when
I was a boy, but your mother and
I decided 'hat we would sock you
full of knowledge, that is if 3 our
liver held cut, regard ess of ex
pense. We < ..!eula l odo it, ou

Now, legal 1 1 .tgCut boat-pad

and that b-übiug suit and that
rollei-rihktum suit and that lawn
tennis suit, mind, I don’t care
about {the expense, because you
say a young man can’t really edu
cate himself thoroughly without
them, but I wish you would send
home what you get thiough with
this fall, and 111 wear them thro
the winter under my other clothes.
We have a good deai severer win
ters than we to, or she I’m
failing in bouily health.
Last winter I tried to go thro’
without under-clothes, the way I
did when 1 was a boy, but a Mani
toba wave came down and picked
me out of a crowd with its eyas
shut.
In your letter you alluded to
getling injured in a “hazing scuf
fle with a pelican from the rural
disfiicts.” I didn’t want any harm
to oome to you my son, but if I
went from the rural dis riels, and
another young gosling from tne
rural districts undertook to haze
me, I would meet her when /he
sun goes dowL, »nd I would swat
him across the back of ihe neck
wi*h a fence board, and /hen 1
would metnder across the pit of
the stomache and put a blue for
get-me-not under his eye.
Your father ain’t much on Ore.
citta mythology and hew to get
the square r< ot of a barrel of pork
bill tie wouldn't allow any educa
tional institution to haze him with
impunity. Perhaps you remem
once when y*u tried to haze .you*
father a litt'e. just to kill time,and
how long it took you to recover.—
Any body i i at goes aL i* right can
have a goed deal of fun wi.h your
fa her, but there who have sought
to monkey with him just to L>r»uk
up ihe mono ony of life, have
most always succeeded in finding
what they sought.
I aint much of a passman, so
you will have to excuse tnis le/ier
We are al 1 quite well except o d
