Washinpton. May 30.—Decoration day
opened with beautiful weather, although
the heavy rain of yesterday made the
ground very damp. At an early hour pro
cessions began forming at the various
grand army headquarters, and at noon the

were under full headway. An incident of
the day was the decoration of the graves
of Gens. Rufus Ingalls and W. W. Belknap

A HERMIT IN A SWAMP.
He Writes a History of His Life for a
Stranger Who Ran Across Him.
Waycross, Ga., May HO.—A gentleman
who spent a few days fishing on the Alta
inaha recently says he wandered off into
the swamp one morning and got lost. In
the evening he became hungry and thirsty.
He had walked all day and was very much
fatigued. He sat down on a log and sung
an old hymn, and suddenly ho saw a tall,
lean, sad-faced looking- man sitting on a
ledge of rock,undef which there was a cave
a small opening being visible from that
distance. He hailed the strange-looking
man but received no answer, although the
stranger was looking at him intently.
He started to go and ask for water and
food, hut the stranger made wild gestures
for him to stay where he was, and some
water and bread and fish were brought
to him by the hermit, who handed him a
piece of paper containing these words: "I
am a hermit. Am sofry for you.” The
stranger went back to the cave, while the
gentleman proceeded todrink and eat. The
fish was uncooked and the bread appeared
to have been baked by the sun. A note
asking the hermit for a history of his life
was written and held toward the hermit,
who motioned for him to put the note
down and leave the spot. Tho
hermit came promptly and the gentleman
walked off a few yards, while the hermit
read the note. He then wrote the
following story of his life since he became
a;hcrmit, put it on the ground and walked
hack to the cave. The gentleman read
it and thanked the hermit for his kind
ness and then went to the river and found
that he was at the same p.lace he started
from that morning. The following is the
story written by the hermit: “After
many disappointments in life, at the age
of 20 1 decided to become a hermit and
have lived here five years all alotie. The
following rules are followed closely
by me and were written by me at the
start of my queer life in the swamp:
There shall not come near me any female
of human, brute or insect kind. No wild
or tame beast shay be permitted to come
near me. I shall eat nothing but bread
baked in the sun, fish uncooked, wild
honey and a certain herb. lam satisfied
that by so doing my life will he prolonged
and I will never he sick. 1 will not have
a fire or light of any kind,except from the
sun, moon and stars, in my habi
tation. M,v habitation shall al
ways be in the cave at the foot
of the ledge of rock in the Aitamaha
river swamp, which is well known tome.
Where my habitation is 1 will not make
known to any one, but should a young
man discover my home 1 will tell him my
story with j>en and ink. I shall not wear
men’s clothes, but will wear a cloak and
shoes to keep me warm in winter, but in
summer a white dress will be worn by
me. 1 shall not buy anything except once
a year, and that will be on Christmas at
midnight. I shall not speak to any human
being or any living creature. I shall raise
in.v own bread. I intend to worship God
by singing, prayer and meditating on the
things pertaining to the life to come. 1
shall not take thought for the morrow,
but will trust in God and leave it all to
him. 1 believe that when I die my body
will be buried by the Lord like Moses. My
grave shall be my only companion. ”
NEW STYLES IN BURGLARY.
Up-to-date Safe-crackers Would Be
Ashamed to Use Old Methods.
From the San Francisco Chronicle.
You see, there sre two styles of safe
crackers, as we know them, the new and
the old, said a safe expert. That's how the
police get a clew in working up a case.
The old style cracksman used powder.
He first drilled a hole beside the lock and
then blew it off with a charge of powder.
The improved method is to first
knock off the spindle and then
drive the combination lock back into
the safe. Then all the burglar has
to do is to open the safe door and help
himself. The “Spike Hennessy” style of
safe burglar is going out of fashion." The
burglars of to-day are more considerate
than they used to be. If they couldn’t
get in in the days of yore they wrecked
the safe just for satisfaction. I recollect
a singular affair in the little place called
Smartsville, up in Yuba county. One
night burglars broke into the general
s ’oro to tap the safe that was supposed to
contain at least $70,000 worth of gold de
posited by the miners the day before. It
was an iron affair, weighing about 700
pounds. The rascals were afraid to blow
it open for fear of arousing the town, so
they simply packed it off into an adjacent
canyon, blew it open and took everything
in sight. They only got a few hundred
dollars, though, the gold having been
secretly sent to Marysville, where it was
banked.
Several years ago the safe of a whole
sale commission house in this city was
rifled, and it was several hours before
anyone could find out just how the job
had been done. You know it is a common
thing for men working in an office to put
their memorandums on the side of the
safe. Well, this one was simply covered
on one side with pieces of paper. The
burglars got in one night and soaked off
one of the papers and cut into the safe.
They could not finish the job in one night,
so they pasted the pai>er on again an.l
came hack the next evening. Then they
finished the job and pulled out everything
of value in the safe. When I was called
in to solve the problem of how the safe
had been looted without touching the
door I lifted up a liook and saw the hole
from the inside. Then one of the young
men employed remembered having seen
some white dust on the floor beside the
safe the day before the money disap- 1
peared. He had thought nothing of it.
and the safe-crackers had an opportunity
to do the second night’s work.
Nowadays, continued the oxpe-t, mer
chants do not place the confidence which
they used to in steel vaults. They go to
the safe deposits with their valuables.
In many of the large houses the safe is
simply kept to keep books in to protect
them from fire. To save the box from '
mutilation by burglars they |>ost the corn- j
bination beside the loek and label it dis- j
tinetly. In several places the notice I
reads:
“This is thecombination. Do not break ;
j the safe open, but follow the instructions
! written hereon, and you will get in with- |
j out trouble."
OOne gentleman has posted this card :
"Our valuables are in the safe deposit.
I Please don't get mad und have fun with
: the safe."
Others do not lock their safes, even.
They simply shoot the bolt.
When the building on Market street
i next to the Nucleus was being constructed
a shirt manufacturer doing business in
' the latter structure was much disturbed
I over the safety of Ills wealth, lie had a
safe but tie w as nolal all confident that it
could not be entered- One night be bad
$1,500 on hand and was at a loss wlr.t to
do with it. A bright idea struck him
He rolled the money, w hich was nil in
silver, up in a bundle and placed it be
neath the safe. Sure enough that very
lligllt the steel vault was opened un i the
burglars got a wa.v witn a lew dollars, in
change. The mass of silver was found all
right under the cracked aie.

THE MORNING NEWS: WEDNESDAY, MAY 31, 1893.
TIRED OF PRISON LIFE.
Mr. Casey’s Success in Taking
French Leave of a Penitentiary.
He Goes to Foreign Parts—A Massa
cHusetts Convict’s Extraordinary
Adventures -He Has Been Twice Re
captured, But He Still Has Hopes.
From the Pall Mall Budget.
In a lymdon jail, under remand on a
charge of breaking out of prison, is a man
named John Charles Lcnnard. alias
Casey. Ily is a stone-cutter by trade, an
Irish-American by nationality, and a
j modem Count of Monte Cristo in the flesh
by adventure. .V reporter interviewed him
in his cell, and his amazing narrative can
not fail to interest.
“In November, 1590,” said Casey, “I
found myself in the Massachusetts state
prison at Boston, under sentence of live
years 1 imprisonment for grand larceny.
By June, 1891, I had got tired of prison
life, and was determined to escape. So I
did. We cut through a window, using
eight saws in the operation.”
“How did you get the saws?”
“Well, that I don’t choose to tell you.
I may want to get them again. We only
had io cut one bar at top and bottom to
make all the exit we wanted.
“Tho window was eight feet from the
ground. Jumping down we got into a
yard which was surrounded by a wall
twgnt.v feet high. In the yard I had
planted beforehand a long joist. The
nature of the work upon which I had been
engaged in the yard in the daytime
had enabled me to do that. By means
of the joist I got over the wall, and was
free. The alarm was given almost immedi
ately, and four prisoners were caught on
the wall. 1 made straight for Connecti
cut by rail.”
“But how did you manage that without
money?”
“I jumped a freight train—a goods train
you call it over here. Yes, 1 had to
jump it while it was going, of course. I
got on to New York during the night by
means of a train which beats the express,
namely, the perishable goods train, with
vegetables, listi and so on. When that
train is once going no one can get at you,
no matter where you are on it. That’s
the kind of train to take.”
“You were in prison clothes all this
time?”
“Yes, until I got on hoard a cattle boat
at New York, and how 1 changed my
clothes then I'm not going to tell you. I
may want to do it again. On this cattle
boat I went to Germany and got £5 for my
wages for looking after the cattle. It
was worth it. The vermin on that
boat were awful. The first time anything
bit me i thought it was a dog.”
“How did you get ou in Germany?”
“Well, in Germany they have no spit
boxes. How other travelers manage I
don’t know, but before long a waiter
came and said something as long as the
Berlin treaty,Amd pointed to the floor.
The end of it was I had to leave that
hotel and patronize another, where 1
stayed three weeks. At the end of that
time the proprietor wanted me to settle,
and brought three policemen to endeavor to
persuade me, I told them it would take
the whole German army to get three
weeks board out of me. I got away and
joined the Normannia, bound for New
York. On arriving there I joined a
schooner and loaded her with coal. We
had not been at sea long when the rough
weather carried away her topmasthead
and flying jibboom, and we had to put in
for repairs to Boston, of all places in the
world the very place where I was
wanted.”
“And ycu were recaptured ?”
“Yes; a bosom friend of mine, being a
little short of funds, earned the SIOO re
ward which was out for me, and I am
happy to be able to say that that bosom
frfcnd is now doing twelve years.
“Such is the irony of fate, you know.
Well, I got an extra year for my escape.
It was in November that I was hack in
prison again. InJulyl got out again. I
don’t mind wintering in prison, but I
like to get out for the summer.”
“How did you manage it the second
time?”
“You must understand that before my
first, escape they had built anew prison i
but now they transferred us back to the
old one. There was an old man there—
he had a life sentence —who had got hold
of a plan of the drains of this old "prison.
When it was re-established as the state
prison he produced this plan and I saw
daylight through it. Directly over one
of the drains was a small house in which
we used to do painting and odd jobs.
Twelve feet under the floor of this house
was the drain, which was sixteen inches
square: we cut through the floor of the
little house until we reached the drain.
It was 215 feet long, and led into the river.
Down this drain nine of us started one
after the other. The last man got stuck
there, I suppose. He went in. certainly,
and he never came out. His body was
never recovered, so far as 1 know. The
last five to leave the drain got recaptured.
Three got free, and 1 was one of them.
Diving from the end of the drain into the
water 1 hit my knee on a piece of granite.
With another man, on reaching the bank,
I went to Belmont, to lie hidden in the
woods there which are some miles in ex
tent, I should think. Wo had left our
prison clothes, and had put on before
starting down tho drain overalls and
jumpers. We made caps out of the lin
ing of our vests. For two days and two
nights we hid together in the woods. At
last a local policeman found us, and, al
though we assured him he was mistaken,
he insisted on taking us to the police
station. He took’my mate first, knowing
that with my swollen leg 1 was safe till
liis return for me. So he thought.
Direetl.v lie was out of sight I followed in
the same direction. Of course the police
man. on his return, thought I had fled in
an opposite direction, and that again en
abled me to dodge my pursuers. With
five hundred farmers searching Belmont
woods for me—for there was another
SIOO reward on me—l was hurrying away
through Belmont itself. Jn a meadow 1
found a boy with a colt. I gave him a dol
lar to go and buy me some tobacco, toll
ing him to keep a shilling for himself. He
trotted off. and I rode away on his colt . I
only went a half a mile on the colt, for he
wasn’t a steeplechaser, and then I took a
train for New York.”
"In your favorite manner, or did you
pay your fare this time?"
"Y< s, I look a ticket this time. I could
not wait for a freight train. On the train
I mid an old gentleman who was going to |
the Fifth Avenue hotel. I told him I was
a ixirter at the hotel and would carry his
portmanteau for him. At the l’nrty

WICKED LITTLE YIN CHOIE.
She Became a Christian, Married a
Heathen and Eloped With a Sweep.
From the San Francisco Examiner.
Yin Choie and Christianity do not mix.
At any rate, that is what Wong Ah Mi
in effect says, and Wong Ah Mi, being Yin
Choie’s husband, and a good Chinee at
that, ought to know. Yin Choie has the
loveliest little tootsie wootsies. She
smiles slant wise, as all little Chinese girls
do, and when she laughs it sounds like
dried peas rustling in a tea caddy. Time
was when little Yin Choie was just like
any other little heathen girl, and ate rice
with a skewer and all that. Time was
when little Yin Choie was a symphony in
alabaster. But all that is a thing of—
oh, of the ever so long ago.
Little Yin Choie is a criminal
now and poor Wong Ah Mi is a-mourning.
Little Yin Choie had almond eyes and a
penchant for spiritual things in her early
youth, but the unhappy vicissitudes of
late carried her a slave to the boudoir of
a "little foot 11 woman on Spofford alley.
Poor little Yin Choie pondered like the
dickens over her hard fate for a time,
then one eventful night scuttled away,
like a thing in’the night, and went to the
Presbyterian mission. Miss Culbertson
welcomed her with open arms—just as
she welcomes all other brands from the*
burning—and she took her in and she
taught her how to be good; and presently
little Yin Choie, with her deli
cate ways and her almond eyes,
became converted. Then it
was that Wong Ah Mi appeared on the
scene and winked at little Yin Choie
through the close drawn curtains of the
mission. Maybe little Yin Choie winked
back. Maybe again she didn’t. Christian
or heathen, when it comes to winking,
nearly all little girls are the same. Any
how, Mi laid himself out for the convert
and won her. Now, if ever there was a
heathen it was Wong Ah Mi; but even
had he been, a godless atheist, without
even a joss to pray to, little Choie would
have loved him just the same, winks or
no winks. Therefore, when he came to
Miss Culbertson one day and said: “Me
allefe same big, tine cookee. Me allee same
heap like lillee Yin Choie” that estimable
lady saw fit to consult her new convert on
the subject.
Well, little Yin Choie said that she re
ciprocated Mi’s gentle passion, and Miss
Culbertson told the lady to go in peace.
Mi prospered as a cook in divers families.
Yin Choie prospered as a fond mother at
home. The home where Mi used to
meander every evening was at 5 Prospect
place. There were seven fond celestial
mothers with babies in their arms in the
sitting room yesterday. Wong Mi was
nowhere in sight. Wong Ah Mi is inter
esting because his spouse, the christian
ized but tickle Yin Choie, has eloped witn
a heathen dude, and poor Wong is left in
his lonely house with only seven other
jealous mammas in the house to look after
the physical interests of his 7-month-old
baby. And right here be it said that no
one would ever have heard of Ah Mi or
Yin Choie if she had not proved herself
no true Chinese and floated off on the
wings of an elopement with a festive
lothario, one Ah Lee.
Ah Lee was a sweep, but he loved Yin
Choie, or at least he said so. Yin Choie,
who was as fickle as she was Christian,
liked to hear 'him say it; and in her
native tonguo spoke softly and in the
tones of a canvas-hack duck said: “But
why not elope if you love me so?” Poor
All Lee in lieu of any other course quietly
pawned what clothes he held awaiting
redemption in his laundry, and on the
proceeds one night he took out Yin Choie
and escorted her to parts unknown.
Wong Mi, who has done plain cooking for
divers Christian families, returned to his
home at 5 Prospect place that evening
and found that little Yin Choie was not
there. Well, then there were metaphor
ical fireworks, and Wong Ah Mi said
things that won’t bear translation.
“I go catch him one headen wife,” said
he, "and she no run away. She plenty
fra id to run away. Igo catch him one
Christian gal and she aliee same play
hookey with allee same Chineman.”
Wong was suprised, and small blame
to him for being so, for such a thing was
outside of his celestial ethics and had
never occurred in Chinatown before. She
was an acknowledged Christian, a stupid
little girl, no doubt, but withal the mother
of his child. Wong reflected that tho
Christian views of his wife entitled her to
Christian justice, and therefore it was
that he packed down the 7-month-old
baby that his wife had deserted to police
court No. 3 yesterday and demanded that
Judge Joachimsen should there and then
return to him his lost Yin and her alleged
beguiler, Ah Lee. Save and except Wong’s
word there were no proofs of Ah Lee’s
guilt, but his honor issued a warrant and
Wong went on his way rejoicing. If Ah
Lee lias really beguiled away Wong’s
Christian wife he will lie worse off than
he would be in China, where a few dollars
more or less would entirely fix the matter.
His crime is felony, for which he may
suffer a sentence of seven years. This
all goes to show that whether in China
or California, under the heathen code or
the Christian, the course of true love
never did run smooth.
