The Remarkable Career of This Famous Murderer. A SCHOLAR AND A SCOUNDREL The Hero of Bulwer's Novel and Hood's Poem Was Really a Vile Criminal Who Abandoned %' 3 and Children and Knew No Remo. se. Eugene Aram, the scholar and mur derer- who inspired two of the master pieces of English literature - Hood's 4 poem and Bulwer's novel-was hanged on Aug. 6, 1750. Aram was born in 1704 in York shire. By the time he was fourteen years old he was regarded in the neigh borhood as a prodigy of learning. His fame for piety and gentleness as a scholar spread, and as a result he was Invited to Knaresborough to open a school in- 1734. There a strange de velopment took place in Aram's char acter. He formed an association with a drinking, turbulent crowd of men, the opposite of himself, among them Dank: Clark, who kept a little cob bier's shop, and Richard Houseman, a dax dresser. In 1745 Clark married a woman with a small fortune of $1,000. Immediately he and his companions devised a scheme to rob her and her friends. Clark was to obtain all the goods he could on credit and hand them over to Aram and Houseman, who were to de posit them In a safe place. Then after 1 securing the plunder Clark was to de camp, leaving his wife to shift for her self, and the property was to be sold and divided among the three men. Clark went about procuring a wide variety of articles on credit. He pre tended he was about to give a great wedding feast and borrowed silver tankards, salvers, spoons, etc., from whoever would lend them. As fast as the different articles were obtained Clark, accompanied by Aram and Hosqan, carried them to a place called St. Robert's cave. When Clark had "borrowed" about everything valuable his acquaintances had to lend, the plotters decided it was time for him to disappear. So in the early morning of Feb. 8, i 45, he, Aram and Houseman.-went to ;the cave to divide the spoils before Clark left. Aram and Clark had quarreled a good deal during the progress of pedatory' operations. At the entrance to the cave the quarrel was renewed, and Aram pushed Clark away and rained down tremendous blows .on his head and chest. Clark fell dead. Houseman, terrified at the sight and, as he said, afraid of meeting the same fate, 'urned and ran away. Aram did1 not show a particle of remorse or fear.4 He gathered up the booty and carried it to'iis house, where he buried part of it In the garden. He buried Clark's body and heaped stones over the grave. In the afternoon he went for House man and threatened him if he disclosed the murder and made him believe he * was equally guilty in law. Clark's disappearance was not nio ticed for a day or two. Tl'^u the peo ple from whois he had "borrowed" jewelry and plate began to make in qufries. Suspicion was directed to Aram in some way. The village au thorities searched his house and found a bundle containing battered plate and clothing stained with blood. Notwith standing this, no action seems to have been taken by the authorities, nor was it suspected that Clark had been mur dered. The neighbors began to jeer at the learned schoolmaster, however, and Aram suddenly left his wife and chil dren and walked to London. For fourteen years his family heard nothing of him. 'He spent the greater part of the time wandering about from place to place, at last finding a situa tion as usher in aschool at Lynn. In June, 1758, a horse dealer who had known him in Knaresborough met hinm in the Lynn market. Aram denied his Identity. By a singular coincidence, almost the day the horse dealer accost ed the now gray haired schoolteacher, a skeleton was found by some work men digging a pit in Thistle hill, In Knaresborough. A country town has a keen recollec tion of everything that has occurred -~ to disturb it, and immediately the dis . appearance of Clark fourteen years before was remembered. Houseman still alive, got drunk first and then joined the crowd of villagers looking at the exhumed skeleton. "Clark," he said with drunken gravity. "was never buried here." The latter, still too drunk to realize the gravity of his position, muttered that Clark's body would be found in St. Robert's cave. The crowd made a rush for that place, and soon a skele ton was exhumed. "I did not kill him!" gasped House mnan, now thoroughly sober and terri fled. "It was Aram. I had no part." Houseman was taken to the village jail, and a warrant was sworn out for Aram. When the officers took him away' from the school the pupils cried. The gov'ernment used Housemanl as a witness to convict Aram. The latter's speeohi in his own defense has come down complete-a masterly attack on circumstantial evidence, showing the intellectual power of the man. Aram made a half confession the night be fore his execution, followed by an at tempt at suicide. According to the custom of the time, his body wit hanged in chains, and it swung in Knaresb~orough forest until 1778. Years later, when the details of his crime were dim, his remarkable career at tracted Hood and Bulwer, and thus the obscure, talented, perverted man be came a part of English literature. Exchange.

IT WAS A DARING SCHEME. the Enterprise Was Known to the Ex ile of St. Helena, but Just as the Preparations Were About Complete the Fallen Emperor Died. Even in "the last phase" our coun ry sustained a certain association ith the captive of St. Helena. says a writer in the Magazine of History. The English felt that any danger of escue would originate upon the west rn shore of the Atlantic. Acnirai Cockburn occupied the ieighboring island of Ascension, avow '11y to prevent it falling into the hands >f Yankee raiders. The feeling in the Jnited States against England was at :hat time quite bitter. Napoleon's anding at St. Helena followed the bat le of New Orleans only about seven nonths, and the downfall of the revo utionary monarch aroused deep syn: >athy throughout the country. But the actual grounds for believing n the existence of a rescue party and -escue plans in the United States rest ipon the movements of General Lalle nand and his associates. This officer's nilitary record, from the revolutionary lays to Waterloo, had been distin ;uished by notable feats of daring. His devotion to the emperor was oyal and persistent; he had followed iim until his embarkation from the bores of France and had tried in vain o accompany' him to St. Helena. He vas condemned to death by the reac ionary tribunals of 1S16, but had suc teeded in escaping and joining his! brother at Philadelphia. At this time our country was literal y swarming with French military ref :gees, many of whom, like Lallemand, ere under capital sentence for their onduct toward the Bourbons during he hundred days. The Lallemands proceeded ostensibly o unite a number of these veterans nto a military colony which they ailed the Field of Asylum. Our government granted them 100. 00 acres on the banks of the Tombig ee, but as their own project required heir establishment near the sea they old the lands and with the proceeds ettled on the Trinity river, in Texas. bout fifteen miles from its mouth. The second in command was Baron igand, whose kindly feelings toward he ancient regime had been Illustrated >y publicly stamping the cross of St. .uis under his feet. Needless to say, e was also under sentence of death by .uis XVIII.'s court martial. But the best known of all this de oted band was the famous pirate La itte, who had begun life as a Bor eaux blacksmith, had killed his love 'ial in a duel, had become a noted orsair, the terror of the Antillean eas, had been the effective ally of leneral Jackson in repulsing the Brit sh at New Orleans and at the time of he French settlement of old guards nen in his vicinity was established at alveston. This narrative does not require a de ailed statement of the affairs of the 100 grenadiers, of the attacks of the feians on their camp, of their final -emoval to New Orleans. All the circumstances indicate that it ivas not the intention of the Lalle nands to found an agricultural colony, at to unite about 1,000 old soldiers .or the deliverance of the great pris-, >ner. The location of their camp was most ~avorable for the scheme, being near :he sea in an unsettled country where :heir movements would not be watched md, above all, being in proximity to afitte, who commanded the required hips. Besides these desirable vessels, ne, a model of swiftness, was con tructed at Charleston and equipped lo- its purpose in the most complete [anner.

A story about Robert Louis Steven son not generally known, according to the New York Sun. is told by Mrs. Stevenson's grandson. Austin Strong. When Mr. Strong vas a little chap Mr. Stevenson liked to. sit propped up in bed to watch him at play in the next room. And often it happened that the bigger boy of the two would make suggestions for the make be lieve games and insist that they be car ried out too. One day Austin had. arranged some chairs in a row, playing that they were ships, and he, standing on the front, was the captain. For a long time he proudly walked the deck of his vessel, encountered pirates and weathered all kinds of storms until he felt the floor positively heave under his feet. Mr. Stevenson looked on in perfect silence, but complete absorption. no doubt playing the whole thing much the harder of the two. Finally Austin got tired of his vessel. climbed off his chair and began walking across the room to some object which had at tracted his interest. This was too much - for his uncle. Still deep in the game, Mr. Stevenson rose in his siclfbed and shouted ex citedly at the recalcitrant sea captain: "Swim. -- you.. swimE" A WARM RECEPTION. It Gave the Hungry Preacher an Ap petite -For Dinner.. Before accepting an invitation it is as well to be sure it is given in good faith. After an afternoon service held many years ago in a certain village in Scotland the preacher, a stranger, who had officiated, accompanied one of the elders of the congregation home and was introduced to his wife. The good man having asked the clergyman to stay to dinner, the latter, after a little pressing, consented. The good lady hurried off to prepare for the unexpected guest, and, seeing. as she thought, her husband washing, as was the custom in those days, at the family sink, she seized the family Bible, approached stealthily from be hind and brought down the ponderous tome upon his bald pate. exclaiming: "Tak' ye that for bringing hungry preachers here to dinner every time they come to the parish." As soon as the assaulted - one could get the suds out of his eyes he looked bout him and, after thinking the mat ter out. concluded that the old lady had made a slight mistake. She, too, came to the same conclusionwhen, on returning to the parlor, she beheld her husband patiently waiting for his rev erend friend!-Dundee Advertiser. Artificial Teeth. It is certain that the ancients.had a knowledge 'of dentistry, but it is dif fcult to determine when or by whom the use of artificial teeth was intro duced. Herodotus says that the Egyp tians had "dentists for the teeth." In the British museum there are various dental Instruments which had been found in the ruins of Pompeii, and Galen In the second century describes the method of extracting teeth by means of forceps. Belzoni says that artificial teeth weredin use In antiquity, since he found some- specimens in the catacombs. Modern dentistry admits that the first to teach how 'to make artificial teeth was the Arabian Albucasis, and in his work "Al Tarif" are drawings of instruments used for this purpose. The earliest known. allusion to artifl cial teeth Is by Mantialis in the first century: You use without a bltsh false teeth and hair, But, Laelia, your squint' is past repair. --Minneapolis Journal. Won in Spite of 'His Lawyer, A once well known attorney used to tell a good story on himself. He 'had been retain'ed to defend a counterfeiter and advised him to plead guilty. His client did so, and as there was in the mind of the court a fixed idea that if a prisoner pleads guilty he does so be cause he has no attorney the judge asked him why he made that plea. "Because my lawyer told me to." "Did he give you any reason for It?'' "Yes. He told me I would have no show before this judge." The court flared up and ordered a plea of not guilty to be entered, and the counterfeiter was acquitted.

Rats may readily be induced to jump or drop into any receptacle, especially if it affords them adequate conceal ment, and they do this without one lin gering suspicion of their inability to reach the only existing outlet when the 4me for retreat approaches. Thus traps on this principle may readily be designed and are obviously preferable to our rat traps where the animals are numerous. In Burma, where the rats are a per fect pest. they use a jar trap, which Is thus described by a traveler: "The common Pegu jar I used was about one and a half or two feet deep and fourteen or fifteen inches broad, and a hole was punched in the shoulder just large enough for a rat to enter. "There was about six or seven inches of paddy (rice in husk) in the jar, which was then buried to within about eight inches of the top. The mouth of the jar was then closed with a board and a stone. "A quantity of old timber joists and straw were in the outhouse and no end of rat holes everywhere around." With this contrivance he caught sev enty-two rats in one night. The rats can readily enter, but they cannot climb the smooth sides of the jar to escape.-London Family Herald. A FIREPROOF TREE. The Chaparro, One of South America's Natural Curiosities. On the vast plains of Colombia and the north of South America. called sa vannas, which are parched with heat except during the rainy' season, there is one of the greatest of natural curi osities, a tree called the chaparro, which Is fireproof. It is the custom of the Colombian herdsmen to clear the ground by means of fire for the new vegetation. which springs up so luxuriantly in these regions after the rainy season. But not even the Intense heat of a prairie fire affects the chaparro tree. It survives the flames to afford a wel come shade in an otherwise treeless country. It is a small tree, seldom growing to more than twenty feet In height, with a girth of about three feet It owes its curious immunity from fire to the nature of Its hard, thick bark. The bark lies on the trunk In loose layers. whleh do not readily conduct heat to the more delicate parts of the structure. The natives believe that this tree grows only where gold is abundant in the soil below, and it certainly is com mon In auriferous districts.-Westmin ster Gazette.. False Hair. False hair was first regularly worn In England by Queen Elizabeth, who ad upward of fifty wigs of different kinds for her private use. After her death a few women adopted the French fashion of wesaring wigs, but,it was not until the restoration that wigs, or, more correcty speakin, peri wigs, came to be extensively worn by the sterner sex. These were intro duced In the court of Louis XIV., where a natural head of hair was not considered sufficiently luxuriant for the artificial tastes of the times. The term "periwig" Is a corruption of the French perruque. Wigs were original ly adopted not as a remedy for bald ness, but in the interest of personal cleanliness. The laws of ancient Egypt compelled all males to shave the head and beard. This explains why turbans were not worn by the Egyptins the bushy artificial bair- being regarded. as a sufficient protection against the heat of the sun. The Rom'ans, on the con trary, wore wigs because they were naturally bald.-St. Louis Republic. What Displeased Him. Two -hunters were making their way across a lush meadow after a rain. The ground was moist and soggy, but their feet by quick stepping could be prevented from sinking more than an kle deep. Suddenly the one in advance disap peared up to his neck in a narrow stream that, owing to the luxuriant growth on the bank, he had observed only as he stepped into it. With diffi culty he pulled himself out and began wringing the water from his garments. "Weil, darn a country," he remarked, with feeling, -"where they set their creeks up edgewise and hide 'em in the grass."-Phiadelphia Ledger. Dreamers. There was never so much need for real dreamers as there is today.

He Catches Birds as Big as Larks in His Mammoth Web. Far up in the mountains of Ceylon there :s a ;.ider that spins a web like bright yellowish silk, the central net of which is five feet in diameter, while the supporting lines, or guys, as they are called, measure sometimes ten or twelve feet, and, riding quickly in the early morning, you may dash right into it, the stout threads twining round your face like a la'e veil, while, as the creature that has woven it takes up his position In the middle, he generally catches you right in the nose, and, though he seldom bites or stings, the contact of his large body and long legs is anything but pleasant. If you for get yourself and try to catch him, bite he will, and, though not venomous, his jaws are as powerful as a bird's beak, and you are not likely to forget the encounter. The bodies of these spiders are very handsomely decorated, being bright gold or scarlet underneath, while the upper part is covered with the most delicate slate colored fur. So strong are the web's that birds the size of larks are frequently caught therein, and even the small but powerful scaly lizard falls a victim. A writer says that he has often sat and watched the yellow monster - measuring, when waiting for his prey, with his legs stretched out, fully six Inches-striding across the middle of the net and noted the rapid manner In which he winds his stout threads round the unfortu nate captive. He usually throws the coils about the head until the wretched victim is first blinded and then choked. In many unfrequented dark nooks of the jungle you come across most perfect skeletons of small birds caught in these terrible snares. Chicora College, GREENVILLE, S. C.
