ii: o'clock, a person passing the Ulllurl‘
'Jau'a' entrance saw three men, strangers, l
standing in the entry beside the open 1
~ioor. evidently preparing to step out.
These must have been the robbers until
murderers, as tto citizens were there at
that time, and this same outside door
had been previously locked by Mr. Car
:is. A lady who passed up the street
about this titne saw two men step out
rirern the bank entrance and walk rapidly
down the street. The robbers must have
quartered themselves in the Masonic Hall,
tin the third story over the bank, as the
doors leading thereto were found unlocked
énthe afternoon, and Were locked by the
janitor, but they Were again found un
focked after the crime was committed.
The men accidentally set upon Mr. Bar
:‘on as he went to a closet opening out of
.1 rear room for coal to replenish his fire.
Here was found the partially tilled hodY
overturned, and his false teeth and the
pen which he had over his ear were here
.Eyiug on the tioor. The key of the hand
culi‘s and Mr. Barron‘s bunch of keys were
also found here. These men probably
thought to find the sale doors unloelted

but this was not the ease. The door of
the vault must have been op'hn, and the
deter door of the sale. but the inner door

There was a ettuhira'ivu leek on this
floor, and also a time-luck; bttt the time

o'clock, so at this hour did not protect it.
But Mr. Barron. although a man of slight
build and little titted for a combat. with
his persecutors, was yet possessed of an
iron will and faithful purpose—to lay
down his life rather than betray his trust.
From appearances. it is thought that they

Dam! IN AN ELEVATOIILW Yankee ele
vators are needed in Paris. The appall
ing accident at the Grand Hotel. which
occurred a. fortnight ago, ahoas that the
‘lit‘ts are as dangerous as they are clumsy.
Owing to the fracture of a chain or to
some defect in the machinery, the car in
stead of gently descending from the sec
ond lloor, went up liken rocket to the
root‘of the fifth floor and there received
such a shock that the chains attached to
the weights were broken. ’l‘hree persons
who were in the car new killed out
right, and another was dangerously
wounded. The car plunged down from
the roof to the ground floor u ith a crash
that alarmed eyery one in the hotel.
Biron Shack was the lir~t to open the
door. and he found his wife lying dead
on the bottom ot'the car. They had lett
their room together, :lllli she had stepped
into the car while he had preferred to go
iluwu by the staircase. There were No
signs of external injury save a flight tlow
of blood from the nvse, and it i 1 proha
ble that the Baroness and the other vie
tims died from cerehratl congestion caused
by the sheek and the rapid puzsage ol‘
the car.

the lmnes so that they protruded through

fast and no help neatr. Altlmugh his
cries were heard at great distance, none
recognized them asef npersen in dis

freed himself, and then crawled on his

A PLEASANT story at a atrngglingi

cinnali (Incite corrcwomlent. He d"?

come. At last appeared a staid old gen
tleman “who wanted to look at some of
his pictures, as other people had done he
l'ore. He showed them, hardly noticing
that the old gentleman had laid aside a
number. Then, when he had seen them
all, this gray old fairy in pantaloons said:
"Well, Mr. —-—. how much will these
come to!‘ The poor, modest young artist
was completely taken aback. He gasped
out: ‘1 don‘t know!‘ But he was dealing
witha customer who was not going to
take advantage of such innocence, and
it was agreed that the next day the old
gentleman should know. He did know,
and a check for more than a thousand
lilollara was the reault.“—N. Y. Tribune.

Ages at'ter. when the work of “recon-r
struction" of the ruined walls of Jeru<a- ‘
lent was in progress, an earnest cry of dis
tress lrotn the people Came to Nehemiah !
(see Chapter \'l. Perhaps their trmihle}
came from the ravages of war; perhaps.
from assessments for "iniprorements;" .
they certainly had high taxes to pay, and :
they complained that they had been I
forced to mortgage their homes for food, :
or to pay their taxes. then termed “thei
king‘s tribute." Anotherclass (perhaps,
those who had no houses or lauds) eom- .
plained that they had been forced to send I
away from home their sons and daughters
to earn the required means, and the eon- i
(litiou ofthiugs showed no prospect of al- i
leviution. As these oppressiens came 1
from their own fellow-citizens, in utter'
disregard of the spirit and letter of the?
Mosaic teachings, the grand old patriarch
was exasperated, as he says, Chap. \'.,i
verse 6, “I was very angry when I heard ‘
their cry and these words." But unlike 3
many ot'our present agitators, who Would
‘have simply held mass meetings and ‘
“cursed things generally," he went i
straight to the "rulers amt nobles," .
as he called them, and, with scathing .~ar- ‘
casm never surpassed, he showed theta
the miserable inconsistency of freeing
their countrymen from slavery to the for»
eignel', only to reinstitute the same rela
tion with theirown neighbors hy the more i
insidious, but not less deadly, meam of
1 usurious slavery.
And having pointed out to tltetn the
ridiculous incmt~istettcy of their practices,
as contrasted aitlt their precept-Av UsIlC-I‘

was a peculiarly sensitive point with the l
Jews, who deem themselves, (as we do‘
ourselves) the very pattern ot'excellence T
he waited for a response. As no one “put _
in a rejoinder," he concisely put the ques- ‘
tion thu; (lltth verse): “I pray you let
us leave of this usury." I
Apparently without a dissentint,r Voicel
the motion was carried in tire allirtnative, :
when Nehemiah exacted an oath from ',
the priests. that the spirit and letter of}
the law should be obserVed. And that no,
eletnent ot' earnestness and solemnity i
should be wantingdhe grand old function- .
‘sry tells us (verse 13): “And I shook my"
l lap," (probably his apron), ”and said. I
‘, b’o God shake out every man from his [mum- l
t and from his labor that performcth not his ’
Jpronu'se: crm thus he he shaken out and
