He Ver had a day off. and would not
.hint of taking a vacation in summer. He
hkeJ his position so well that he steadily
refused a promo ion, and also turned his
Jl ck on a better position offered him by an
gLrbank When he was tripped uo it
was learned that he had stolen about
i30.000. He is taking a prolonged vacation
ia {“recent cae of a similiar character was
that of Glenmore Todd, of the Provident
Life and Trust Company. Oh, no, he
liked his w< rk too well to accept the vaca
tion offered him every summer by the com
pany. Finally, when t e suspicions of the
officers were aroustd and T. dd was forced
to take a vacation, he was found to be about
$150,010 sho t in bis accounts.
William A. Smith, who held a position of
trust in the Commercial Notional Bank,
never 1 st a dav either summer or winter,
but lie was taken sick one day, and then it
was discovered that he had stolen Sfi.OOO.
Cashier Whito of the Times, who was
recently released from serving a term in
Movamensing, was too much in love with
his books to remain away from them a
single day. He, like the others, spurned
the idea of a vacation, but tue day of
reckoning came, and Cashier White went
to jail as au embezzler.
‘ He always advocate giving holidays to
men bolding positions of trust,” said Secre
tary Sabine of tue Guarantee Company of

counts should be thoroughly examined.
Many banking institutions liuve, in addition
to granting vacations, adopted the plau of
shifting the clerks and bookkeepers around
at frequent intervals, so as to prevent col
lusion between the men.”
MEN WHO HOL.D LIFE! CHEAP.
Why It is Strange No One was Killed
at the Sullivan Fight.
In a page and a half illustrated article on
tkeSullivan-Kilrain fight the New York
£lOl of Sunday had this to say about the
noted "bad men’’ who were present:
•*lt is fortunate, too, that the battle culmi
nated as it did, astbera certainly would have
teen bloodshed had either man been ad
judged the winner on a foul. Batt Master
soil, Luke Short, Johnny Murphy, Pat
Duffy, Biii Houston, Davey Hennessey, Bud
Jtenaud and Capt. Jamison are all expert
Shots, and thro were hu dreds of ethers in
the throng that w uld be nothing loth to
take a hand in and do what they
were able toward increasing the
number of tombstones in the little
cemetery at Richburg. Masterson’s record
hs a bed man is probably u equaled bv any
man of bis age on this continent, yet to
look at him one would never tako him for a
man whose unerring pistol had caused
twenty-two men to give up the ghost and
pass over the great divide. The writer had
a ioiig t lk with Mastorson, and a quieter
or more courteous man would be hard to
lied. He was Ki rain’s timekeeper, and a
right good one he proved to be, as
he gave his man from five to forty
seconds the best of it between
rounds. In explanation of this the
western man said afterward: ‘When you're
with ama ,be with him heart and soul. I
tried to give Jake tile best of the watch,
a. and you know how I succeeded. I thought
etoro the fight tluitKilrain would win, and
bM a little money on him through the ad
flCa °f Mitchell, but I know now that there
is no pugilist in the world that can fight
Sullivan and stand any show of winning,
tie is a terrific punisher.’

the rainbow. Masterson insisted upon
drinking with his friends, and said that ho
would be glad to meet the Gothamite, and
later In the evening his wish was gratified.
During the rest of their stay they received
marked attention from Masterson, who
met t e representatives of the leading
dailies of the country and made a very fa
vorable impression on them.
“Luke Sh rt. with a record almost as long
as that of his fello -townsman, is one of
the most dapper little fellows imaginable.
Not over 35 or 36 years old, dressed in a
light suit of blue serge, with a jaunty straw
hat on his curling hair, he looked like a
well-to-do, happy-go-lucky son of a wealthy
father, whose cmef aim in life was to get
all the good things possible out of it.
Johnny Murphy is a typical sport, short
-1 aired, with a ruddy face softened by a
blonde mustache w hieh curled about a hand
some mouth. A two-carat diamond flashed
in tbe front of his white and pink flannel
shirt. Tiles: were tho most dangerous men
in Kilrain’s corner, and it was mnted that
should any trouble begin they each had
their man iu the opposite corner marked
for a target.
CHIEF HENNESSY S PRECAUTIONS.
Dave Hennessy, the chief of the New
Orleans police, is a medium-sized man,
somewhere between 35 and 42 years old.
He is considered one of the most fearless
men of the south, and Masterson hadn’t
been in town many hours, so rumor has it,
before he received word from Mr. Heu
nessy that so long as he behaved himself he
would be all right, but if he iudulged iu
any of the little idiosyncrasies which had
made him famous, he would probably be
sorry for it, as he would be watched more
closely than any other man at tbe ring side.
Hennessy was at the fight, and he had
with him, posted at different points about
the ring, half a hundred men who do not
know what fear means.
Who knows that this precaution was not
the cause of the peaceful ending of the
affair, for it was said the day before the fight
that Kilrain could not lose—that is, tbat'he
would not be permitted to lose. That
meant breaking into the ring, and what
wouid follow does not require the most
vivid imagination to picture.
Bill Houston, a wealthy man, and a quiet
one when not opposed on a question of
what lie considers his rights, was the man
that was said to have been chosen to oppose
Mastorson. He is a prominent politician,
owns large plantations, and is one of the
solid citizens of the Crescent City. He is a
sallow-faced man of 45 years, of medium
hight, dre-ses plainly, but elegantly, in
black, and is a polished gentleman in man
ners and address. He has been
mixed up in numerous difficulties, but
he has never come out second best. His
most narrow escape was wben he killed his
latest man, a desperado nomed Fournier.
They bad quarreled, and Fournier vowed
vengeance. Houston turned the corner of
the street one day as Fournier stepped from
a store acn ss the way, and pulling a large
navy revolver, tired point blank at him.
The bullet struck Houston full in the chest,
011 the top button of the coat, shattering it,
just the top button of the waistcoat in a
similar fashion, cut a cravat pin in two,
and drew the blood from his chest. The
force of the missile was so great that Houston
thought it had gone clean through him,
and drawing his pistol he walked deliber
ately across the street toward his foe, whose
pistol refused to work. Fournier had but
one eye, and he was vainly engaged in en
deavoring to get his gun in working order.
When Houston got within twenty-five feet
he halted, and taking deliberate aim he
shot a bullet through Fournier’s neck, and
he dropped dead. Houston always carries
two pistols, one on each side, so that should
an opponent ever close with him and seize
either hand, he can still reach for a weapon
and defend himself.
HOW PEOPLE SLEEP.
Some Interesting Dream Statistics
Gleaned By a Kußsian University.
from the Boston Medical Journal.
An interesting investigation upon the
above subject has r. cantly been made un
der the auspices of the University of Dor
pat, Russia. Some 500 circulars were sent
out witn a series of quite definite questions,
which were answered with equal detail by
lot students, 113 other males, 142 females.
The results for the two sexes were so differ
ent that they demand separation, w hile the
students formed a homogeneous class inter
esting as a special study, Tbo fi st problem
that was proposed was the relation be
tween the frequency and the vividness of
dreams. It appears that 62.5 per cent, of
those whodre imevery night,dream vividly,
60.5 per cent, of those who dream fre
quently, and only 26.8 per cent, of those
who dream seldom, showing that the vivid
ness of dreams increases very rapidly with
their frequency. Next, how is the inten
sity of sleep related to the frequency of
dreams? Of the students who dream
nightly, 6S per cent, have a light sleep (and
only 28 per cent, have a deepsleep); of those
dreaming frequently, 40 per cent.; of
those dreaming seldom, 32.8 per cent.
Similar Dorceutages for the other males are
68.8, 42.1 and 30.3, and for women, 72.46
and 50 per cent. We conclude then, that
frequent dreams are a concomitant of light
sleep, though the relatiou is far from uni
versal. As regards sex, women have 73
per cent, of tli ir number dreaming nightly
or frequently, while students have only 50
per ceut. and other m iles 48 per cent.
Again, 63 per cent, of the women sleep
ligntly and only 42 per cent, of students,
and 44 per cent, of other males. We con
clude. then that women have a very much
lighter sleep than men, and that their
dreams are proportionately more frequent.
Auother conclusion, the evidence cf
which is too detailed at present, is tint as
we grow oider our dreams bcome less
frequent, but our sleep becomes lighter,
age affecting intensity of sleep more than
frequency of dreams.
The author regards the students as in the
period of maximum dreaming (20 to 24
years of age). The deep sleep of childhood
(hostile to frequency of dreams) is then
Jeast counter-balanced by the lessening of
dreams due to age. The vividness of
dreams shows a similar relatiou to age and
sox; the women dream most vividly; the
students being younger than toe other men,
have more vivid dreams. The power of
rememboring dreams is also dependent up
on vividness ani frcqency of dreaming;
it is accordingly greatest in women
and greater in students than in more ma
ture men. The liveliness of the emotional
nature, a prominent feature of women and
youth, seems thus to be marked out as the
causative agent i;i the production of dreams.
The duration of sleep should naturally be
related to the habit of dreaming, but in the
men no such relatiou can he discovered In
the women, however, it appears that those
who dream frequently sleep nearly an hour
longer than those who seldom dream. This
difference is regarded as due to the fact
that men are ro re under duty to break
short thair sleep and thus vitiate the statis
tics. This is corroborated by the frequency
with which the men who dream frequently
declare themselves tired in tho morning,
indicating incomplete sleep.
The need of sleep is greater in women
than in men, the duration of sleep beitisr
longer and the percentage of tired mornir g
and evening and of not tired being 3 to 2 ana .
to 3 respectively as compared to the men.
Students sleep longer and are less tired than
other/men. The time needed to fall asleep
is abput the same in all three classes—2o.B
mim/tes for the men, 17.1 minutes for
stuqr nts, and 21.2 minutes for the women.
In each case, however, is takes longer for
tnttse who are frequent dreamers and
light sleepers to fall asleep th m persons of
opposite c aracteristics. Eighty per cent,
of. students sleep uninterruptedly through
tpe night, 70 per cent, of other men, and
fr.ly 43 per cent of woman. Light sleep
h id frequent dreams increase the interrupt
ledness of sleep. The power of falling
1 asleep at/'tali is possessed by few. It is
greater Vonth ‘.Urn , i n age. Twenty

insufficient sleep on tbe pert of the men.
Ttie effect of the dream habits upon men
tal work is also evident. Those who dream
seldom, or >leep deeply, are better disposed
for work in tbe forenoon than light sleepers
and frequent dreamers. Tho forenoon
seems in general to be toe preferred time of
work. The statistics regarding nervous
ness confirm the accepted fact that this is
greater among students tcan other men at
large. It is, too, a concomitant of light
sleep and frequent dreams. As to trmvra
ment, the'phiegmatic people are quite con
stantly deep sleepers and infrequent dream
ers. Finally, a contrast between teachers
and professors of the same average age
shows the effect of the occupation. The
teacher, with bis dailv toil, bas a lighter
sleep aud more frequeut dreams, while the
professor, leading a comparatively congen
ial and worriless life, is a deeper sleeper
and a less frequent dreamer than the
teacher.
ATTACKED BY LYNCH 2RB.
The Startling Fxporlenco of a Train
Load of Visitors to the Fight.
From the Pittsburg Dispatch.
New Orleans, July 6.—A number of
northern intending visitors to the Sullivan-
Kiirain fight, who arrived here this morn
ing by the Mobile and Ohio railroad, had
an experience just above Meridian last night
which they are not likely to forget in a
hurry. Among the passengeis were four
negroes, brothers, who formerly lived at
Meridian, and who killed seven white men
in an election fracas there four years ago.
They escaped and went to St. Louis, where
they married and settled down. A Missis
sippi constable heard of tbeir whereabouts,
got a requisition for them, and arrested
them in St. Louis on July 4.
Word was telegraphed to the conductor
of the train that a force of armed men
would intercept his train for the purpose of
taking the negroes off and lynching them,
and lie was ordered not to stop until he got
to Meridian. The negroes were locked iu a
baggage car, and the baggagnmaster got
into the cab of theengine with the engineer
and firemen. All the passengers in the cars,
including those in the sleepers, were made
to lie down on the floors of the ear at a
given signal—four blasts from the engine
whistle—and the train dashed by the sta
tion at full speed. As it did several volleys
were fired at it by the crowd in waiting.
Three windows in the sleeper were shat
tered by balls, and several of the cars were
struck by them, but fortunately none of
the passenzers were hit or hurt by them.
The negroes were taken off at Meridian in
the presence of a great crowd, and the con
ductor of the train thinks that they will be
lynched.
A prominent Brooklyn sporting nqaa,
from whom these facts were obtained, says
ho never wants to have another experience
of the kind.
Two “Girls”—A girl with a bundle in her
hand was going up Park street yesterday
when she met a girl with a bundle coming
down. They seemed to intuitively divine
each other’s occupation, and the fact that
each was out of a job. “When did you
leave?” queried the first. “About an hour
ago. When did you?” “Same time. What
did you quit for?” “Folks bad too much
company and I worked like a slave. What
did you quit for?” “Folks bad no company
nor nothing to do. and I was getting too
fat. Don’t we have hard times, though?”
“Dreffnl. If it isn’t one thing it’s another.”
—Detroit h ree Press.
Musician—l saw you among tbe audience
at the oratorio of “The Creation” the other
evening. Eminent Divine—Yes, I felt that
it was my duly to go and hear it, but it w;,s
dreadfully tiresome. Between the long
drawn-out recitatives, the endless repeti
tions in the arias and choruses, the hard
seats in the hall, the necessity of remaining
quiet all that time, and tue eramped-up
position in which I had to sit, I was nearly
dead by the time they got through.
Musician—You should sit among the con
gregation in a church for awhile and get
hardened.— thick.
