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.

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 ed."—Youth's Companion.

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.
