The Extreme Poverty of Her Psrente In*
duced Hel 1 to Take the Highway—She
Wm Finally Run Dowd by * Bloodhound
•nd Died With Her Boots On.
Nell Prescott, old Virginia’s first high
way woman, was born and lived and died
Within 60 miles of Parkersburg, and
though her span of existence only extended
over sonio 20 years she made things lively
In tho mountains while she did live.
Nell Prescott lived and died “befo* de
wnh.” She was the pretty daughter ot
old Job Prescott, who Itved at the foot of
old Raid Top''mountain. Asa schoolgirl
she was bright, intelligent and studious,
and it is generally believed that it was tho
extreme poverty of her parents that drovo
her to tho highway.
Early In tho spring of 1353 a cattle buyer
named Jennings reported to Sheriff Mul-
cahey that while crossing Bald Top and
when near tho county line ho caught up
with a prepossessing, boyish looking fel
low on the troll, who wild ho had walked
from LInwobd and was going to Dcering,
a little settlement nino miles this way
from tho mountains. Jennings offered
too wayfarer a scat behind him on the
horso, which offer was thankfully accept
ed. Thus mounted tho pair rode merrily
on tholr way, chatting pleasantly as they
proceeded. Jennings thought his compan
ion was a very entertaining, fellow and
was ail unconscious of danger until, whilo
passing through a narrow defile, ho felt
tho muxzle of a pistol pressed against his
bead, and a voloo exclaimed from behind:
“Give me your money, or olso I'll
Bhoot.”
V Jennings was dumfounded by the sud
den and unexpected turn of affairs, but as
ho heard the pistol click knew thero was
nothing to do but to comply with the
command, and ho at once drew out a roll
of bills amounting to $300, which was
immediately snatched from his hand by
his boyish companion, who leaped lightly
from the hone to the ground and then said:
“Stranger, you're broke now, and as
I took the pistol from your belt to do the
Job I’ll give you $20 so ns to got another.”
Thou the robber disappeared, and Jen
nings went disconsolately on his way to
Huntley, whore ho found tho sheriff. Mul-
cahey at onoo dispatohodaposso of officers
In pursuit of tho highwayman, and al
though thoy scoured tho mountains for
three days could obtain no trace of him.
Throe weoks afterward a peddler was
held up and robbed of $63 near tho samo
spot whero Jennings had boon despoiled
of his money on tho Llnwood trail. This
doed was done by a small, bewbiskered
desperado. From thonco' robberies woro
frequent on tho mountains.
Tho inhabitants of the sparsely settled
country believed they were at the mercy
of an organized band of highwaymen, for
in no two cases did the descriptions of tho
robber tally. The fact, though, that the
crimes were always committed by one per
son and in a certain locality at last led
tho authorities to doubt tho existence of
a band of robbers and to believe that all
tho “jobs” were tho work of but one indi
vidual. At onco they set about effecting
his capture. Many attempts woro made
in that direction, but all to no effect. At
last, however, it was deemed necessary to
have deputy sheriffs constantly patrolling
the mountains, and $500 reward was offer
ed for the capture and conviction of any
highway robber. This offer set many pri
vate citizens on Btlll hunts, and at last
Gabo Jimison and A1 Wheaton devoted
all their time to the pursuit of the un
known highwayman. One morning, ac
companied by Gabo's bloodhound Jennie,
they were on their way up Rattlesnake
mountain, when they mot a Hebrew pack
peddler, who an hour before had been held
up by a hoarded highwayman on the Bent
ley road and robbed of $80. .;
Tho peddler accompanied Gabe and his
companion back to the place where the
robbery occurred, and tho dog was placed
on the highwayman’s trail. The hound
was held in leash, so as to keep her con*'
stantly within range of her owner’s rifle.
Thus the trio of men, led by the dog, fol
lowed the trail around tho mountain side,
through the woods and across chasms and
brooks, Jonnio baying loudly tho while.
After a two hours’ journey and when near
ing Huntley, Jennie began tugging .furi
ously at her leash, and Gabo knew she
was hot on the trail, and at last he caught
a glimpse of a human form flitting through
the trees ahead.
Instantly Gabe Jimison raised his rifle
and fired, but apparently without effect,
for the chase was continued, but soon
ended at a fallon hollow troo, into which
the highwayman had sought concealment.
Gabo and A1 knew thoy had “treed their
coqn” and that his capture was inevitable,
so the hound was not allowed to ontor tho
aperture. Gabo kicked tho log repeatedly,
then shouted, “Come out o’ thnir an s’ren-
der tor th’ law, or I’ll smother yer with
smoke, for we uns has yer sho’.”
Thoro was no response to this stern com
mand. Not a sound could be heard from
within tho log. Evidently tho robbor was
disinclined to surrender, so Gabe and A1
hold a consultation of war in whispora,
which ended in the latter going to sum
mon assistance, while Jimison remained
to guard tho self imprisoned captive.
It was shortly after 1 o’clook when A1
returned, accompanied by three woods
men and Deputy Sheriff Strong. Strong
opposed trying to smoke out the robber >>y
a fire at the base of the fallen tree and di
rected another method of getting hold of
the robber, which was to split the log open.
Bo, with axes arid wedges, the log was
split, disclosing within a motionless hu
man form. Tho aperture was materially
widened, whilo tho deputy sheriff and
Gabe stood on tho alert with drawn re
volvers, and at last the officer reached
down and grasped the form by tho shoul
der, saying at tho samo time:
“I arrest you in tho narno of tho com
monwealth of Virginia for highway rob
bery.”
Thero was no response. With a vigorous
'‘Jerk he turned the form over and then
jumped back aghast. The boarded face
that confronted his was that of the dead.
Gabo’s bullet had dono its work. The
robbor hod been shot through the back.
In raising the body from the log the whis
kers worn were discovered to be false, and
when the officer removed thorn Gabe Jim-
ison exclaimed: “Holy smoke, it’s Nell
Prescottl Boys, I’m flabbergasted. ”
Somo of his companions also recognized
the pretty face, and despite the fact that
the form was clad in male attire declared
it to be that of old Job Prescott's daugh
ter. It was mercifully decided not to in
form tho Prescott family of the death of
Nellie, and so, after viewing the body, the
coroner ordered it interred on the moun-
talqMdn. near Oak Grove. After the burial
there Were no more robberies in that part

DRESS SUITS TO RENT.
rwU About the Business, the Prfoee end
the Men Who Hire Them.
More raou than ovor buy dross eulto now
adays, and more dress suits than evor are
hired also. There are In Now York prob
ably 00 or Q0 places where dross suits can
be hired. Tho cost varies from 50 conts to
$B a night, depending on looftllty and the
character of the suit. Tho wearers of hired
dress suits inoludo guests in hotels and
visitors in the city who have unexpectedly
found noed of a dross suit. Dross suits are
sent daily in the season from this olty to
Brooklyn and Long Island, Hoboken, Jer
sey City and Staton Island and frequent
ly to places farther away.
There is one establishment whoso solo
business Is renting dress suits. Generally
the business la carried on in connection
with somo other trade. Some men hire a
dress suit once a season, others two or
three times, and others again hire them
season after season, thus avoiding tho
trouble of keeping dress suits of tholr own
In ordor. At tho establishment devoted
exclusively to tho business there are kept
in stock from 250 to 850 suits. The suits
ere of good quality and fashionably out.
Tho charge runs from $0 to $8. Tho latter
prioe might be charged for a suit that had
nevor been worn. A party of a dozen or
15 mon hiring together would get tbom at
$1.50 each. Sometime* entire clubs, per-
hsps 50 tr 60 men, hire dress suits for n
ball or reoeptlon. In such cases they got
them at perhaps $1 a suit. When strangers
want to hire dress suits, a deposit is some
times required, usually $20 or $25.
The ordinary life of a dress suit is about
two years. After that it is let at a lowor
price, perhaps $1.50, to be worn in ama
teur minstrel entertainments or for uses
entailing border wear than it would bo
likely to get In ordinary soolal sorvloo. In
their final estAto the coats are sold to wait
ers for $2.50 or $8. Such coats may be In
good order and not much worn, but not
in the current style.
Of course winter la the best season for
this business, hut there is something doing
the year round. It is not unusual for men
going away over Sunday to hire dross suits
to toko with thorn. The best months of
the year are January and Februury. TJin
greatest demand of all comes on tho nights
of the great public balls.—New York Sun.
j Startling.
It was» novel accident, with a novel
soquel, that bofoll Admiral Homo during
tho war with China in 1840. He had dined
on one of tho ships of the fleet, and when
ho came to return to his own ship the title
was running so strongly that his mon
could not pull ftgaiust it, and he wits oom-
polled to take refuge for tho night In tho
frlgato Dido.
When getting out of his oooklesholl boat,
he made a false step, and as ho was largo
and heavy the boat tilted over, and In an
Instant he aud hlsorew were struggling In
the water.
The admiral luckily seized a rope which
hnng ovor tho side of tho ship. Five of tho
men seized hold of his leas, and thore they
hung, shouting lustily ror help till they
were drawn in by the Dido’s crew. Tho
admiral, pretty well exhausted, was put
to bed, with a hot drink, and soon dropped
asleep after giving directions to be called
early.
At the stated hour the officer of tho
watch roused the admiral, who, still dream
ing of drowning and other horrors, drows
ily asked, “Who's thoref”
“Death,” was the reply.
It was startling, and tho admiral looked
out of his oot expecting to sen n skeleton
or somo other ghastly object, but now
fully ftwako and perceiving only a very
gentlemanlike young man standing oloso
to him he observed:
“It Is vory singular. I thought I was
told that death was before me.”
‘‘And so lie is,” answered the young
officer. "My name is Death, and I have
oonio to tell you that the ttde has chang

The BlnUop’t Reoaptloflo
A good story Is told on Bishop Henry G.
Potter of New York. When the bishop
visited London soveral year* ago, ho was
Invited to a reception by tho Ungllsh
bishops at Jjainbeth palace. He waa fa
miliar with the conventional oostuine of
the highest ordor of the English church,
opd in order to do honor to his boats or
dered from a fashionable English tailor an
English bishop’s full outfit—full skirted
coat, knee breeches, shoiel hat, silk apron
ami all the rest of It. Ho donned this at
tire with some trepidation, but sustained
and soothed by unfaltering trust In his
Intuitions of propriety drove to the recep
tion in a comfortable frame of mind.
Wbat was his horror to discover every
othor bishop present wearing long Mack
doeskin trousers anumlnus aprons and
shovel hate! Out of consideration for
their Ainorloan visitor the English bishops
bad all donned tho costume with which
ho was most familiar.
Rebuked.
A solf Important little country gcntlo-
msn entered Baron Haassmann’s office in
Paris one day, having somo complaint to
make, and proceeded to stata his errand In
a pretty lofty tone and without taking off
big bat. The officer waa equal to tho occa
sion. “Wait a moment,” he said, and he
rang a bell. A servant answered tho sum
mons. “Bring me my hat,” said the pre
fect. The bat was brought, the offioer put
It on and turned to hla caller. “Now,”
•aid ho, **I will hear you.”—San Franois-
oo Argonaut.
Make no man your Idol, for the beat
man must have faults, and hla fault# will
usually become'yours in Addition to your
own- This la oa true la art aa in morals.
