A DREAM.
I dreamt that over the winter world
The winter winds were sighin';.
And into the orioles’ empty nests
The tiakes cf snow were flying.
The vines along the garden wall
With crystal ice re gleaming.
And in the garden jjull and hare
The summer flowers were dreaming.
The snow lay deep over withered grass.
The skies were cold and gray.
And slowly the dreary night came on
To end the weary day.
I woke. High up in the orchard boughs
A hundred birds were singing.
And in the birch trees’ pleasant shade
The orioles’ nests wore swinging.
Along the river, tall and green.
I saw the rushes growing.
And daisy petals white as snow
Among the grasses shewing.
Tlio flowers held the sunshine bright.
The breezes were at play.
And swiftly the dreamy night came on
To end the happy day.
—Angelina W. Wray in Harper’s Bazar.
By CHABLES B. LEWIS (M. QUAD).
(Copyright, 1893, by Charles B. Lewis.]
Although the hank at Valley City was
called “The Valley City bank” and was
supposed to be a private institution, it
was really one of the seven branch banks
belonging to a San Francisco syndicate
of bankers. I was simply in charge of
it on a moderate salary and under heavy
bonds, and 1 had the credit of being a
capitalist where no credit was due. The
syndicate erected a 1-story building for
the bank. The front of this was railed
off in the usual way, and the rear was
divided into two rooms. One was used
as a private room in which business ap-
I RECEIVED A STRANGE CALLER,
pertaining to the bank,was transacted
and the other as my bedroom. I was a
young man and single, and I had not
only to act as president, cashier and tell
er during the day, but as watchman at
night. The only help I had was a book
keeper, and he was only with me three
half days per week. The remainder of
his time was put in with a shipping firm
in the same^town. You will say this
was a curious way of running a bank,
but I can find you a dozen of them in the
territorial towns of today conducted on
the same primitive principles. I was do
ing business with one sis weeks ago
where the family kitchen was directly in
rear of the cashiers window, and a wo
man who was cooking dinner left the
meat frying on the stove to come in and
cash a check for me. Alongside the bur
glar proof safe was a trundle bed, and
on top of the safe itself were a smoked ham
and a sack of flour. It was banking and
housekeeping combined.
It was figured that I had only one dan
ger to guard against. A tough man
might drop in some day and rest the
muzzles of his guns on the ledge of the
window and order me to pass out all the
money in sight. The safe was always
kept locked, and it was seldom that I
ever had more than $200 outside. To
prevent any experiments, however, I
gave otrt that I had aranged a shotgun
battery.just where it would do the most
good, and that by pressing a lever I
could blow the body of any bad, bad
man through the front window and clear
across the street, and that he would be
dead at the end of his voyage. Every
body believed this fiction to be a fact,
and some people were so timid that 1
had to do business with them away from
the window. It was expressly stipu
lated in my contract with the syndicate
that if I received anything for safe de
posit it must be at the risk of the depos
itors, and they must be so warned in ad
vance. I had scarcely opened for busi
ness before a dozen people in town want
ed the use of our safe. As we were to do
more or less business with them, I could
not refuse to take temporary charge of
valuable papers and various suni3 of
money.
The bank had been running about
three months when my brother Tom.
who had been telegraph operator at Big
Bend, 250 miles away, was transferred
down to Grand Crossing, only 10 miles
away, and .ho seized the first favorable
opportunity to come down and see me.
I may tell you that Tom was a mechan
ical and electrical genius and is now liv
ing on the royalties paid him for half a
dozen good things. When we had visit
ed for a couple of hours and he had
looked things over, he said:
“You sleep here, and you are loaded
for bear, but it wouldn’t be any trick at
all for a sharp man to clean you out. It
won’t be another three months before
somebody will try it on.”
“How?”
“Well, you’ll get a caller in the even
ing probably, and the first thiijg you
know you’ll get a rap on the head, and
before you come to he’ll have opened the
safe and skipped with your cash. It’s a
combination, I see, but if that can’t be
hit it can be drilled or blown open. 1
think I'll make things a little safer for
you.”
The bank had no cellar, but as stone
was plenty and cost only the labor of
quarrying thp walls were built two feet
thick. To get below the frost line they
had to be sunk nearly five feet. The
Space inclosed by. the walls was flinty
soil, so hard that a pick could scarcely
disturb it. The floor of the bank was a
little more. than four feet above the
earth. Tom was about a week, working
at odd times, to get thjngs in shape. He
cut out a trapdoor in rront of the safe,
brought down wires and a battery, and
when he had finished we had a contriv
ance which he alone had power over
from Grand Crossing. By means of a
switch up there he could spring the bolt
of tlie trapdoor, and the door worked on
a spring to closo the opening again. A
staple in the door and another in the
frame permitted the use of a peg, so
there might be no fear of accident din
ing business hours. The understanding
we had was that Tom should drop that
door every hour between 8 o’clock at
pieht .and 7 the. next, morning, and the
thing worked as easy as roiling oir a log.
For the first few nights the click of tin
bolt woke me up as the door fell, but
after a time it failed to penetrate my
drowsy senses.
' I had to run my bank to suit the con
venience of the public, aud it was never
' rlosed before 6 o’clock in the evening and
was often open until 7. As a rule, all
! persons who wished to use the safe over
night came in between G and 7. I gave
each one a receipt of whatever be depos
ited. but made no charge whatever.
Many and many a night that safe held
$25,000 outside of bank money, and on
such occasions I felt a bit proud at the
confidence reposed in me. Tom’s trap
had been working for a month or more
when I received a strange caller one even
ing at half past G. A woman was by
no means a rare’sight in onr town, though
they were none too numerous, but this
visitor of mine was a young woman styl
ishly dressed and as pretty as a peach.
I’ll admit right here that I had a jump
ing of the heart at sight of her, and that
when she smiled on me I was as badly
flustered as a boy caught stealing eggs.
She was from St. Louis, she explained,
and had come out in search of a brother
Who w-as interested in a silver mine, but
had mysteriously disappeared. She would
be at the hotel for a week or- two and
wished me to safe deposit $G00 in green
backs. She gave me the name of Miss
Nellie Haines to insert in the receipt,
and you will of course smile in con tempi?
when I admit that I had to count that
money three different times to make it
come out straight. I of course offered
my assistance in the search for informa
tion, and of course she sweetly thanked
me and said she’d come in again. She
did come, and when I saw her by day
light I was clean gone. Regular case of
love at first sight on my part, and I have
no more excuses to offer. I wrote sever
al letters for her, and she wrote several
for herself, and the search for the miss
ing brother was well begun.
For a week Miss Haines dropped into
the bank daily in . search of news; and
one evening during that interval I paid
her a call at the hotel. Saturday after
noon she sent me a note saying she had
news of her brother, and that he would
be down from tlie mountains about 8
o’clock in the <$-ening. He would be
very anxious to go east by the 10 o’clock
train, and would I mind if the two came
to the bank at a quarter past 8. While
she had to draw out her money, it was
more than likely that he would have a
large deposit to make. If she hadn't
mentioned this latter circumstance, I
should have taken her money to the ho
tel and perhaps declared my love. Sat
urday evening was always a big evening
with the bank, as a score or more out
siders wanted the use of the safe over
Sunday. On this Saturday evening I had
fully $30,000 to take care of. I got rid
of the last customer by 8 o'clock, locked
the safe door just two minutes before
Tom sprang the trapdoor and then sat.
down to wait for Miss Haines and her
brother. Promptly on the quarter hour
there was a knock at the door, and 1
opened it„and the pair walked in. Miss
Haines began saying how greatly obliged
they were as I turned to shut the door,
and she was still talking when her dear
“brother” fetched me a clip over the
head with a sandbag, and I knew no
more for 15 minutes. When I opened
my eyes again, I had been dragged
around to the safe, was tied hand and
foot, and “Mr. Haines” and I were alone
in the bank. He sat on a chair smoking
away as cool as you please and evidently
waiting for me to come back to earth.
He was a man about 30 years old, rather
good looking, but had a wicked look in
his eyes. Even before he spoke I had
figured it all out and realized how I had
been played for a hayseed. It was just
half past 8 by the clock when my visitor
said:
“Come to, have you? Well, that’s what
I was waiting for. I want you to open
this safe.”
“I'll see you in Halifax firr-t!”
BROTHER TOM WAS JUST A MINUTE AHEAD.
“Going to get mad about it, are you?
I’ve got your keys, as you see, but of
course I don’t know the combination.
You’ll save me a heap of trouble by
working the machinery. I’ll loosen your
hands, but don’t attempt any foolish
ness. I’ve come for the boodle in the
safe, and I’ve going to ha*e it at any
cost!”
“But you’ll get it without any help
from me.”
He looked at me for a moment with an
evil eye, and then took from his pocket a
gag made of a pine stick with a string
tied to each end. He rose up as if he
meant to apply it, but changed his mind
and sat down and said:
“Sister Nell said you were a soft one,
but I hope you are not a fool. Wliat's
the use of forcing me to extremes? Not
a dollar of this money belongs to you
If you’ll open the safe we'll make an
even divide of the boodle, and I can
leave you bound and arrange things so
as to mako it look straight to outsiders.”
“And I won't.”
“Then I’ll compel you to by torture
After I have held a lighted caudle to the
soles of your feet for five minutes I think
you’ll listen to reason. It is now a quar
ter of 0. I’ll experiment on the combina
tion for 15 minutes. If I hit it, all right:
rf not. I’ll find a way to mako you open
the door.”
Ho knelt down in front of the safe door,
and of course it was my object to keep
him there until the hands of the clock
pointed to 9 and Tom shot the bolt. Nei
ther one of us uttered a word for five
minutes. Then I noticed he was getting
impatient aud said:
“No doubt you’ll hit the combination
in time, and that will be bad for me.”
“How bad for you?” he queried.
“Why, even if you have me bound and
gagged people will be suspicious that it
was a put up,job. If you had been obliged
to use powder and drills it would have
been different.”
“So you think I’ll strike it, do you?”
“I hope not, but you go at it like a man
who has been there before. Where is Miss
Haines?”
“Miss Haines? Ha! ha! ha! Miss
Haines left her kindest regards and said
she might call again.* Good looking girl,
eh?”
“I'll admit that, even though she
vorked up this job on me.”
“Y-c-s, good looking girl and sharper
than a steel trap. She thinks a heap of
her missing brother, Miss Haines does.
There! I think I’ve”
He thought he’d hit it, and he was not
far out of the way, but it wasn't the hit
he was looking for. Brother Tom was
just a minute ahead of time in shooting
tlie bolt. The robber uttered a shout
and clutched at the air as he went down,
and his heels had scarcely disappeared
when the door swung hack and I was
making tremendous efforts to get my
hands free. They were tied at the wrists,
and before I had loosened them I rolled
over and oi r er on the floor to reach the
staples and the peg and make the door
fast. Three minutes later I had a free
hand to cut the ropes binding my ankles.
It wasn’t much of a fall through the
trap, but the robber struck on his hc$d
and was stunned for a minute. When he
came to, he began cursing in a way to
make my hair stand up, but I paid him
no attention. He had brought tAvo re
volvers and a knife into the bank, but had
taken them off and laid them on a chair.
I picked up these and left the place to
give the alarm, and I have still another
confession to make to you. I knew that
it Avas a put up job all the Avay through,
and that “Miss Nellie Haines” was a
“pal” of the man under the bank floor.
Sho was consequently a wicked woman
und deserved no mercy. Call me a fool
if you will, but I said not a word to any
body when I got outside and made a bee
line for the hotel. She Avas in the sitting
room, ready dressed to ride down to the
depot when it Avas time. She Avas alone,
and when I entered the room she uttered
a little shriek and almost fainted.
‘ ‘ W-Avhere is—is my brother?” she asked
as I stood before her.
“Safely trapped in the bank,” I an
swered.
“And you have come to arrest me?”
“No. I haA r e come to warn you that
you may save yourself. HaA'e you any
money?”
“Not more than three or four dollars.”
“You have $600 in the safe. I had for
gotten about that. I Avill bring it to
you.”
“And my—my friend?”
“He will keep until you are gone, and
then Ave’ll take him out and send him to
jail.”
I returned to the bank and got her
money. I saw her take the hotel bus to
the depot. I Avaited until the train had
come and gone, and then I ga\'e the
alarm, and we got the robber out and
jugged him. Later on he was sent to
prison for eight years, and the woman*!
have never heard of since. Why did I
let her escape? Well, she was a hand
some woman. That’s the only excuse I
ever had.
A Singular Accident.
A cyclist was riding on an old fash
ioned, ordinary machine, the Avooden
handles of Avhich Avere missing, leaving
the iron spikes exposed. He dismounted,
but iu starting the machine he missed
the pedal, and the bicycle falling he
fell on top of it, and one of the handle
spikes entering his left breast and pene
trating right through to tlie heart, came
out at his back just under the shoulder
blade. He died soon after being taken
to the hospital.—Whole Family.
Popular National Songs.
We have a number of songs that seem
to lay about equal claims to distinction
as national songs. “Star Spangled Ban
ner,” “America” and “Columbia” are
three of tlie first class. Then comes
“Yankee Doodle,” which is unquestion
ably the song and tune representative of
Neiv England, Avhile “Dixie” has just as
firm a hold upon the hearts of the south
erners.—Chicago News-Record.
Only One Time More.
He—I’ve asked you three times to
marry me. How many more times do
you a.-ant me to ask you?
She (tenderly)—Only once, and let that
once be 50 years hence.—Detroit Free
