We hear a great deal In tbes“ latter
days about the “depression of trade”
etc., but the most serious feature io
the present business condition, h
the countless thousands of laborers,
skilled and unskilled who sre thrown
out of work. Ouuntiieu are not
in healthy conditions when their
legitimate ent, rprlses cannot supply
their “bread-winners” with remu
nerative employment. The great
centers of manufiictures in the east

ot Industrial disturbance. The idle
operatives in those sections aie m

It seems taut some of tho acute
troubles of life are settling übt ur

Mr Sweet, the general manager, be
came anxious and is'gan an examination
ot the books. An expert was called iu, and
researches disclosed a discrepancy between
tho cash receipts and balance at the bank,
which, It is thought, will roach $20,000. It la
regarded as alm.sit certain that most of the
defalcation was in cash, which |»wmJ through

Stephens is fifty-throe years old. His ap
pearance is calculated to inspire confidence.
Ho is six foot tali, and wore a grayish mous
tache and side whiskers, lie has a handsome
countenance. Ho has boon twelve years in
the employ of the company and engaged the
fullest confidence of his employers, who could
not Imagine anything that would tempt him
to commit tho crime, tecauiw his circum

fattier left Mm property in Now York valued
at SIO,OOO or more. Mrs. Stephens was known
to have a comfortable income. His habits
wore economical, even niggardly.
After the defalcation was discovered, Mr
Sweet says he learned that Stephens had
operated on ’Change through brokers. It is
also believed that within the past three
mouths Stephens lost heavily over the green
cloth. From Mrs. Stephens Sweet learned
that Stephens’ property in the East hail been
lost in speculation. Sweet says the cashier
was too shrewd to attempt to forge his
(Sweet’s) name. He had no doubt Stephens
went to Canada He said he certainly would
not do anything for which he could ho ex

bunds of the Detective Agency.
Heath of a Well Knouru Manufac
turer.
Canton, 0., Dec. 27. -Cornelius Aultrnau,
millionaire manufacturer, died suddenly
about midnight last night, aged fifty years.
A jStrty was held at his borne in tho evening,
and the guests had just loft when ho was sud
denly taken ill and died before a physician
could be called. His association with the
firm of C. Aultrnau & Co., agricultural im
plement manufacturers, the Wright Iron
Bridge Company, the Akron and Mansfield
Mower & Reaper Works and other big en
terprises, has made him known throughout
the country. He had been mimed us a prob
able candidate for Govenor on the Republi
can ticket at the coming e'ection.
Os small boginniuga have both the an
ami literature of tho pre ent day come
forward. Larkin Meade went out one
New Year’s eve, and. by the assistance of
the boys fn Brattleboro, \t. raked to
gether snow and lee, and modeled a figure
of the dying year with pen in hand, writ
ing its own epitaph. He put water on
this statue, and it froze hard and next
morning stood up in the middle of the
village, a matter or admiration.
There happened to bn at Battleboro at
that time .Mr. Joseph Beach, one of the
owners of Tho New York Sun. He wrote
a flaming description of this young genius
in Vermont, which was copied into other
papers. The postmaster at Battleboro
received a letter from Cincinnati asking
him if the young mini who had made
that statue had a good character and was
possessed of the cleverness imputed to
him. The letter was to be answered only
to the address of a certain box in the po t
office at Cincinnati Meade conferred
with the postmasier in Battleboro, and
dropped aline to a iriend in Cincinnati to
know whose box that was. He receiver)
answer, as he expected, that it was the box
of Nicholas Longworth. An order then
came to Meade to make a statuette of this
figure.
A New Gold Country.

Let us hope that the country about
Sandy i’piut, in the straits of Magellan,
may turn out to be a second California.
That the alluvial deposits there are aurif
erous is well known, and there is every
reason to believe that the precious metal is
to be found distributed all over that part
of the Chilian territory. Washing is car
ried on by the country peop'e in the
most primitive fashion, and without
the use of quicksilver and with
the roughest appliances, they suc
ceeded last year in extracting Li.
DOO grammes ol gold, which has been sold
ou the spot at M cents per gramme, repre
senting 8,100 hard dollars. The yield for
the current year is expected to be much
more important. The gold is principally
found in the rivers as dust and in nuggets.
A nugget of 55 grammes was lately ex
tracted. and undoubtedly the future of
this country Is full of promise. As an

ILtppTneorTs Magazine.)
I used to think that Cornelius O’Dowd's
•tory of the enthusiastic old lady who sent
an enormous pincushion to Garibaldi in
prison was a delightful piece of nonsense
that must have emanated straight from the
writer's braiu. I dare say now that she
really did send it aud a pair of silk cov
ered toilet bottles to match it.
Some time ago I chanced in conversation
to allude to one of tho charities practiced
during the civil War by a few ladies in
Philadelphia, who were in the habit of
•ending food anti clothing to the southern
prisoners at Fort Delaware Those were
days when the most simple necessaries of
life had arisen to an enormous value, and
lhe shoes, stockiugs aud flannels, to sav
nothing cf tobacco, pickles aud jollies, all
cost more than it was pleasant t" contem
plate. Speaking of these things, a lady
who had listened with great attention now
claimed for herself a similar work of
mercy.
“ But we used to send o::r boxes to our
own soldiers at Libby prison," she said,
with a gentle assumption of superior patri
otism that 1 could not sufficient y admire,
though doubting greatly whether it. had
ever been worth their while to risk their
goods on such a perilous and uncertain
journey. “Why I remember," she went
on, "how we used to sjiend hours and
hours making pocket pin cushions. ”
“Pocket pin cushions I’’ 1 repeated,
faintly.
“Yes. ” she said, with tender and truly
feminine sympathy for distress. “The
poor fellows hud not even a place to put
their pins. ’’
1 answered nothing. Garibaldi and his
tribute melted into insignificance before
thia thoughtful charity.

’CYCLE RIDING.
SOMETHING BETTER THAN WALK-
ING, RIDING OR ROWING. ,
I
What Is Held by Eminent ItiiKlish Rhyei- 1
oiaus How Tricycling Acts Upon |
the Muscular System -A lielief
to Fatigued Brains.
{The Wheelman.]
The eminent English physician. Dr. B. !'
W. Kichardson, says in a recently-pub .'
lisiied paper “The peculiarity of the pro- '
cess of riding on the tricycle is, indeed, |
when onfti the art is obtained, so that ;
much can lie done, not only without fa ;
tigiie, but with a sense of lightness and |
relief from weariness, bodily and mental, |
which is positively refreshing. I can
ride forty miles on the tricycle, experi
encing, I can safely say, less fatigue than
from walking ten or from riding on horse
back twenty, although I am a practice,d
hand in both the last-named exercises all
my life, while I am comparatively a nov
ice on the tricycle.
“The rca-on of this it is not difficult to
explain. In walking the legs carry di
rectly all the weight of the body, and as
each foot Cannes down on the ground
there is a certain vibration or shock quite
through the body, which, though not
acutely perceptible, is, nevertheless, fu
tiguing. The breathing, also, is curried on
ala disadvantage, for the diaphragm or
great respiratory muscle, is not able to
ad, in walking, without steadiness, and,
it may be said, purchase, as it is when the
pelvis is fixed, the spinal column firm,
ami the upper limbs steady. .The circti
lation, too, is considerably quickened, and
the heart, is tolling at a rapid speed, lift
ing very quickly the whole of its blood
over that, hill (Milled the ascending aoria.
the first part of the great blood-vessel
which springs from the heart in the form
of a beautiful arch to supply with blood
the, upper and lower parts ot the body. ”
Another English physician says: “The
tricycle, is a very safe machine, and with
ordinary caution an accident need never
happen. Neither extreme youth nor a<!
vam ed age would seem to be any bm
against the enjoyment of tricycle ridin.
In America children positively ride befoo:
they can wi ll walk, and in our country .1
is bi no means unusual to find men be
twee i6d and 70 who can do from thirl
to fifty miles a day easily enough on I
tricycle Tricycle riding, if not carric
to excess ami weariness, relieves bril
fatigue ami incipient congestion of Hi
liver; it causes the kidneys to act mo,,
freely ami lightens lhe whole system
banishes ennui and lowness of spiii
strengthens the whole muscular system
induces a free action of the skin, Ina,
the nerves and insures a healthful ' le, p
To shop and office people, to hard well,
ing men of business, but more particular
to brain workers, the possession of good
tricycles would, if judiciously used, in
deed prove a blessing. ’’
Dr. Fanny F. Miller, an Engli-h Indy
physician, says in Belgravia: “There 1-
no reason to believe that tricycling is iu
any way injurious to even delicate per
sons. Middle-aged men, with that t n
deucy to degeneration of the muscles into
fat, which Is one of the dangers of th'dr
period of life, will find trievcling to as is
the heart's action rather than strain its
powers Nearly all chronic complaints
will be benefited by this form of exercise.
For Indies I believe it Io be especially soft
able.” Further’it is added •‘Sever::’
lady members of the royal family ride
the tricycle, and many hundreds of other
outside of the palace have followed their
example. ’’
A clergyman, after describing the
causes of his “broken down” condition,
goes on to say “My health was becoming
undermined, 1 was nervous, fretful and
Mondays oh, horrors! blue is not a word
to express the feeling entirely exhausted
it seems to me that I did not have a friend
in the world: could hardly think of the
preparation required for the next Sunday;
my heart heavy and dull; could scarcely
tell whether it ached or not. Just ai this
critical time came my bicycle, and, as if
by magic, away went the spirits that had
tormented me so long. ”
There is another point of view in which
this subject lieeomes of much importance
to all; to the healthy as well as the invalid.
Holmes says as the result of the want of
proper exorcise: “I am satisfied that such
a set of black coated, stiff jointed, soft
minded, paste cotnplexioned youths as we
can boast of iu our Atlantic cities never
before sprang from lotus of Anglo-Saxon
lineage. Os the females thai are males of
these males I do not here speak.
Anything is better than this white blooded
degeneration to which we all tend. ’’
The lust expression, “to which we all
tend." is, 1 think, more, or le-s applicable
I to the inhabitants all over our country.
As a preventive or remedy of this unfor-
I tuniite c 'iidition of things, lhe professor
recommends rowing. '* You can row
! easily and gently all day, ” he says, “or
you can row yourself blind aud black in
the face in ten minutes, just, as you like. ’’
This was written twenty years before
the bicycle and tricycle made their ap
pearance in lheir present perfected form.
This machine, as well as the oars, may lie
made the means of extremely aetive or
gentle exercise, just as we like, while they
give opportunity for exercising till parts
of the body, which the oars do not
