The Chaplain's
Cleverness
Copyright, 1904, by G B. Lewi
One day at the Third National bank.
In the dty of Coruopolls, a stranger
walked through the president's room
and fast the bookkeeper's and took
from the pile of money stacked at the
paying teller's right hand four pack
ages of $10,000 each, tie was coolly
walking out again when stopped by the
president and a gton.
The man was known to the police as
"Slick Charlie," and to tell of all his
adventures would fill a book. It was
tor his attempted theft of the $40,000
that he was sent to the Woonson peni
tentiary for five years. The officer who
delivered hUn behind the doors of that
Institution sajd to the warden: ' 4
- "Here Is a man yon want to keep an
eye on. Don't lose sight of him day
or night He Is bold and nervy on the
one hand and slick and sly on the
other. Don't trust him for an hour,
or he'll beat the game."
The warden was a new man at the
grlsonbut, having been sheriff of a;
county, ne tnougnt ne anew aoout au
sorts of criminals and replied that
No, 870, as "Slick Charlie" was re-'
corded, would have to get up -early In ,
the morning to beat him.
If a prison chaplain were to be ques
tioned about religion In a prison he
would answer that scores of prisoners
lived up to It and were earnest and de

to be'questloned, be would answer that

good" he should be watched the closest
The chaplain at Woonson. was a good
man and one who bad faith In him

peals to burglars and murderers pro

prisoner! be was known as an easy
mark.
The new warden was wary of antag
onising the captain and a man not
well posted on the tricks of criminals,
to No. 870 found things easy for him
when be entered prison. When he had
had full opportunity to slse up the
chaplain he began to "get good." He
was as earnest about this as he had
been in appropriating other people's
goods. He became contrite and hum
ble, and be wanted to be turned from
paths of wickedness. Of course the
chaplain did his best When the po
nce officials heard that "Slick Charlie"
had been converted they notified the
warden in writing that he would be

out of the "pen" within three months,
and the chaplain sent an official com
plaint to the governor that the police
were trying to discredit his labors.
The chaplain was a man forty-five
years old, while No. 870 was only thlr
ty. The chaplain was four inches the
taller, bad stoop shoulders and sham
bled as he walked. , He also bad a pe
culiar intonation. The slick convict
gave np bis original idea of digging for
liberty to study the chaplain. At the
end of five months he was one of the
teachers in the evening school. At the
end of seven be asked and got liberty
to bold a Bible class on Sundays. He
wrote and the chaplain delivered a ser
mon on "Christianity In Prison," which
was commented on by hundreds of pa
pers. Up to this time he bad been
working in the tailor shop. He was
now given charge of the prison library,
and bis plans were as good as carried
out
It was the habit of the chaplain to
visit the prison every afternoon from
3 to 5. A part of the time was spent
with prisoners In their tells men who
were undergoing light punishment
and a part in the library, and lie al
ways left pretty promptly at 5. In go
ing out he pased three guards at lock
ed gates and went through the ward
en's office and out of the main door.
No, 870 bad held the portion of libra
rlan for three months, and It was mid
winter One afternoon the chaplain
had been vlalting in the prison and re
turned to the library at a quarter of 5.
As be entered the room he received a
blow that knocked blm senseless, and
when he recovered bis wlta half an
hour bad passed and he was tied band
and foot and gagged. . It was 6 o'clock
before he was released.
In the course of that hour No. 870
bjl done some wonderful tilings Alt
er Inocklug down tbe cEhpFhIu lie Had
stripped off the lalter's outer garments
nnd clothed himself In them; then fee
had secured bis man with ropes and
locked the door behind him as be
emerged. Shambling down the corri
dor to the first guard, he had said;
"James, I oarae away today with
only a dime In my pocket Can you
lend me a dollar until tomorrow V s
"With the greatest of pleasure, chap
tain." And the money had been band
ed over.
The same game bud been played on
the two others, aud then the "chap
lain" bad entered the warden's office.
He could have passed right through, as
the official was busy, but instead of
that he took a chair and waited for
ten minutes. When the warden was
at liberty he wu nuked for a 1oh of
$10, and the "chaplain" reported to
blm on the welfare of three or four dif
ferent prisoners before saying good
night Fifteen minutes after leaving
the prison the disguised prisoner en
tered the largest store in the town and
borrowed $20 of the merchant and
then disappeared.
When the library door was broken
open at 6 o'clock and the real chaplain
found there was a great commotion.
Three gatemen were ready to swear
that the clergyman bad passed out,
fcklug a dollar from encb as be did so.
The warden had seeu and talked and
loaned mouey to the mime intiu. Two
guards had iilso seeu him. Here were
sis prlsou officials w ho could sweur to
a thing, atu! yet that thlug was not a
fact. No. S70 hart simply Imitated the
chaplain down to a line his voice,
gait, speech and geueral look.
At 11 o'clock the nest forenoon the
president of the Third National bank
of Cnrnopolis was called out of his
room for a moment During his ab
sence a man dressed like oue of the
clerks In the bank entered the room
and bore away a package of bonds of
tbe face value of $13,000. "Slick Char
lie" wanted to be revenged upon the
bank, and he wanted money with
which to leave the country, and he tar
ried In the town to get both. The pres
ident of the bank Is sore of this, be
cause a note left on his desk told him

In the making of a thimble there are
several operations, the blank passing
Into the cup und then the rolling on of
the band. Then tbe thimbles, which
have assumed a form warranting the
name, are carried to the factory prop
er, and after burnishing tbe more In
teresting process of knerllng Is per
formed. Tills kuerllng Is the forming
of the little Indentations which receive
tbe end of the uecrfle and assist In
pushing the point through the fabric.
Placing the cup in a lathe, the opera
tor with a suitable tool knerls tbe end
of the thimble. During this operation
a peculiar and by no means unpleasant
musical souud Is emitted with varying
tones. The point of the thimble being
reached, a flat knerler finishes tbe side,
and with a sharp edged tool the pol
ished cutting at tbe sides of the band
Is performed. Then on another lathe
It is placed In a hollow block and the
inside burnished. All the oil and dirt
are then removed, aud the thimble is
polished and. made ready for the mar
ket. Fortran) In a Haabaad.
In Greece a young woman who
wishes to know wliat sort of hus
band she Is going to have goes to on
of the gypsy fortune tellers, who are
regarded with nruch reverence. The
fortune teller gives her a pie season
ed with aromatic herbs. This she eats
Just before going to bed, having hung
around her neck a bsg with three flow
ers, one white, one red and one yellow.
The next morning she draws one of
tbe flowers out of the bag. If it lie
white, she Is to marry a young man;
If red, one of middle age; if yellow, a
widower. She relates what she has
dreamed In the night to tbe fortune
teller, who predicts whether her hus
band Is to be rich and the marriage
happy. If the predictions are not car
ried out to tbe letter, no fault Is ascrib
ed to the fortune teller. This deviation
by the bag and different colored flowers
is equally adaptable to all countries
and has tbe merit of being a cheap and
easy way of settling one's future, If
one has only faith enough.
Bata;ed the Bandlta.
When Maximilian was emperor of
Mexico the country was overrun with
train robbers. They marched about in
large bands, tore up the tracks and
robbed everybody. One day the train
from Vera Cruz to the City of Mexico
was bounding gayly along, the five
coaches filled with hldalgoes, peons,
market women A fanners. Suddenly
it came to a 'uindHtlll. The train
guard cried out, "Bandltte!" Sure
enough, on either side of the roail the
ragged but desperate ruffians were
lined up. Suddenly hldalgoes, peons,
market women and farmers arose.
There were a blinding flash and a deaf
ening volley from both sides of the
car, and 100 of the bandits fell dead,
while the 300 zouaves, disguised In the
costumes of the country, turned out of
the cars, pursued the flying robbers
and killed every one.
A Memory Method.
Association Is the vital spring of
memory, and nny one who analyzes bis
thought process may catch himself re
calling a thing by a series of allied
things. Many people have tried to
systematize association and arrange a
dentine memory method.
A mathematician has discovered a
most Interesting process for remember
ing dates. Suppose 70U have forgotten
the year of tbe Norman conquest Take
the date of your birth and add to it
tbe number of the month when yon
were born. MultipJy. the rejultby. the
duy of-the inonfli' your father Was

Ural Love.
It is a popular fallacy that the first
love Is the true oue, unique lu Ita ex
cellence, says an exchange. As well
say that the first picture of a painter
Is the best of all he will paint in the
course of bis life; that the first speech,
the first book, the first statue, tbe first
coiiijHwItlon. win be the best of tbe
statesman, novelist, sculptor or nntsl
clan, as the case may be. First works
have all the lmx.-rfectlons of uncer
tainty, of ncxMuienee and Ignorance.
And it is rather by chance than by
anything inherent In the nature of Cu
pid's ways that the first love turns out
to be the great oue.
