such w.ts tho namo of my now friend)
nfurmed mo that ho had been engaged
in tho banking business nil his life, hav-
ing at various times filled tho different
olllccs of cashier, teller and president.
"I should suppose," I observed,
that tho banking business offers fewer
rauiatio episodes than other profes-
Oil."
" I don't agrco with, you there," re-
turned Mr. Archer. "Judging from
my own experience, I should say that
icro nro but few professions which
ffer moro dramatic scenes."
You havo been actor in some scenes
f this character V" I asked.
I havo Indeed' Lot us s-it down
icro on tho porch, and I will tell you
what happened to mo onco out Wast'
So saying, wo fixed ourselves com-
forlably, nnd Mr. Archer related lo mo
tho following exciting episode of his
life.
Soimi twenty years ago I was cashier
nil bank situated in tho city of Mil-
waukcu, in tlio Statu of Wisconsin,
Although u largo placo now, Milwaukee
at tho tinio I refer to was a long, strag-
glingtown, wltli a very rough class of
Inhabitants.
I.Ike nil places on thoextremo verge
of civilization, tho liw was almost a
lead letter, llor.-o thioves, robbers
mil murderers woio thero in such Hum-
hers that they struck terror in law tibld-
ing citizens, and no Jury could bo found 1
to convict tlm most heinous olfonder.
If it cliaucad to leak out that any of
tlio twelve Jurors wcro in favor of
bringing in n verdict of guilty, his or
their lives wcro sure lo pay llio forfeit tho Uov. Itobort Elliot. I am an Epls

As a natural consequence of living in

Tliero wero hundreds of men who
matlo it their especially business to try

You will reudily understand that car-
rying on a bank under these clrcum-
stances win a most arduous task. Every

cil, anil tliu vaults bunt lor tlio speclo

much was this tlio ense, that they bo-
camo a kind of a show placo for Strang-

bo detained in llio city was stiro to visit
the vault of tho Citizens' 1 tank.
Our president was a btrong. powerful,
energetic man, who had moro than
onco proved bis courago in a meleo;
consequently tho ruffians of tho placo
kept him at a distance, and for two
years after tlio bank was started no ono

"Yes that's true. I learnt some

" Indeed," I returned, pricking up

" You lnwo heard of White Haired

" Do you mo.tn tho great brink rob

"Yes, ho himself. Ho has robbed

"I huvo heard of that rascal, too," I

"Tho deuco they do 1" was all I could

to tho conclusion that tho two famous
bank robbers had changed their minds
and had gono to exercise tneir enter
prising profession in n illlieroiit noiti.
Wo had forgotten nil nbout tho
matter, when ono Saturday, In tho mid
tlio of tho month of September, while
wo wcro busily engaged In our various
duties, a clerical Individual entered and
asked to sco tho president. Tho request
was atldrosscd to mo, nnd 1 had an ox-
cellent opportunity for observing his
external appearance,
Ho appeared to bo about forty-fivo
years of ago, of commanding prcsenco
Ills faco was fresh, fair, and exceeding
ly healthy looking. Ills hands wcro
very while, and ho woro a fine diamond
ring on tho llttlo finger of tho right
hand. Hn was dressed in a sutt of
black, which fitted him perfectly, and
must havo been mado by a first clas3
tailor. It was this black suit together
with tho whitest and stlflest of cravats
and a short-sighted oyo-glass which
dangled from his neck, and which ho
overy now and then raised to his eyes
that gavo him tho Intono clerical ap
pcaranco to which I havo referred
above.
"Do you wish to sco Mr. Uraiiitrco
on business?" I asked.
"Not exactly on business," returned
tho stranger, "but If ho is disengaged,
I should Hko to speak to him,"
" Hero is Mr. Dralntreo now," F ro-
plied, as tho president stepped out of
his prlvato room Into tho bank."
"Mr. Braintreo," said tho strangor,
courteously romovlnghis hat and speak-
ing in tho most pollto tone, "allow mo
to Itilroduco myself. My namo is Elliot,
tor to a church in St. Paul's. I am now
on may thero, but cmnot leave until
Monday. At my hotel to day I heard
tho landlord speak of tho extraordinary
safety vault you have nttachod to this
hank. As I havo a penchant for seeing
such structures, f havo thought per-
haps you would nllow mo to seo yours,
of which I havo heard so much,"
"Certainly, sir, with pleasure," re-
pic,i Mr. Draintroo, who by tlio way
wrt, parlicularlv partial to clergymen,
doubtless becauso thev formed such a
striking contrast to tho inhabitants of
frontier cities. "Mr. Archer,'' addod
niy chief, "will you b good enough to
light tho dark Uiitcn and accompany
us?"
Tt wanted about tventy minutes to
our usual hour of cltnlng tho bank, and
i had Just finished my work. Had such
nnt been tlio caso, I should in nil proba-
billfy havu sent ono of tho clerks in my
place.
Thero was nothing, however, to pro-
vent mo from dolug as tho president
requested ; 1 tucreloro llglitod a dark
lantern, and wo all threolesccnded tho
steps leading to the vault.
Tho speclo and valuables of tho bank
wero kept In an Immenso iron safe
which was n acod In a stone chamber.
to it was through n masslvo iron door.
which was secured bvn thick bar of
iron fastened by nn Immenso padlock.
which was turning tho handlo nround
uxactlv seven times. Onco moroor less
would bo of no avail,
I unlocked tho padlock, leaving tho
i0y n tho lock, and wo all entered tho
stono vault. The Uov. Mr. Elliot up-
po.tred to bo strangely Interested In tho
V.M0, uQ KaZOd nround him In seem-
ing wonder j hu measured tho thickness
of tho walls, nnd tho length nnd bieiulth
of tho stone room,
"Very securo 1 very securo, Indeed 1"
uo murmured. "Yon ran E..t lmnir rob.
hers nt tlellanco with n ronm ill:., this.
Mr. liralntreo."
"Yon. hlrt'l bolinvn wa can.
Kor
see," added tho president, (suiting tho
action lo tho word, "In order to effect
an entrance, It Is necessary lo turn tlio
handle tirouud exactly bovcii times.''
After the seventh time, Mr. Uraln
trco gave n, strong pull and the heavy
door slowly turned on lis hinges. The
reverend gentleman glanced Insldo
with oxcusablo curiosity.
"Very curious I very curious Indeed,"
ho murmured. "How wonderful lathe
Ingenuity of maul"
At that moment Mr. Uralntrco called
tho clergyman to see something elso in
tho stono vault and thoy both moved
awny to tho oxtremo cud of tho apart
ment. On glancing Into tlio safe I noticed
that two ledgers weiu out of their places.
1 entered tho safo to placo them In their
respccllvo cases, when cither tho cler
gyman or Mr, Halutrco brushing past
tho safe, unconsciously knocked against
tho door, as ho did so, which gavo It an
Impetus that closed It on me, the bolts
shot noiselessly Into their sockets and I
was a prisoner.
Thero was nil acoustic phenomenon
connected with this safo which I never
heard explained, and that was, any ono
shut Insldo could hoar every word that
was uttered In tho vault, whllo no nolso
that ho might riiakq could reach those
outside, i was uwaro or tins pecuiiari
ty and know that It was utterly useless
for mo lo call out.
Tho only hopo I had was, that when
"Mr. Uralntrco missed mo ho would
surmlso wliero I was. Hut In n fow
moments this Illusion was dispelled
Why, wliero can Mr. Archer boV'1 1
heard Mr. Uralntrco observe "Oh 1
remember now, ho had an engagement
after banking hours, and I suppose ho
has gono to keen It, but I think ho
might havo left tho lantern willi mo.
But wo can find our way out easy
enough."
I heard them leavotlio vault, tho Iron
bar put In its place, anil tho key turned
In tho padlock.
I realized thu fact that there was no
hopo for me. I was a prisoner, and
that I had to remain until Monday
nioriiltiL'.
It was no pleasant thing to contcm
plate remaining shut up thero for forty
two hours without food or water ; but
thero was no help for It, for I knew that
nil the screaming lu tho world would
only be so much breath wasted;
therefore determined to take matters as
philosophically as I could, and not
Indulge In Usolo-s rejiinlngs.
Fortunately I had In my pocket a
volumo of Shakespeare, and the dark
lantern was also in my possession,
made a seat for myself on somo ledgers
and turning down the lamp to a point
at which I could read conveniently, I
began to enjoy myself as tho clrcum
stancss of tho case would permit.
I rca 1 for flvo or six hours, and I can
safely affirm that I never enjoyed
Sliakospearo as well before. Tlio abso
lute quiet prevailing, nnd tho fact of
being shut oil' from all exterior influ
ences seemed to make mo appreciate
tho hidden beauties of tho great poet
much more clearly than I ever did in
my life,
I read till I grew sleepy. I then
mado a bed for myself of tho account
boo!:.-", turned tho lantern down to tho
faintest glimmer, for the sake of saving
oil, and obi-dug my t'.vcs, I was soon fast
asleep.
When I uwuku and looked at my
watch 1 iouuil It was ten o'clock on
Sunday morning. I had therefore slept
nbout twelve hours.
I felt very hungry, but I know that I
had twenty-four hours moro lo pas
thero before I could get anytliingto eat,
so I determined lo try and sleep as
much of my time as possible, rcmem
bcrlng tho French proverb, "711; rfori
dine."
I lead a great deal of Shakespeare
during tho day, and about eight o'clock
In tho evening I again composed my
self to sleep.
I was suddenly awakened by tho
sound of voices In tlm stono vault, and
naturally supposing that It was ten
o'clock on Monday morning, and that
somo or tho clerks woio coming to open
tho safo, I glanced at my wafch 'and
found lo my oxtremo surprlso that It
was exactly twclvo o'clock at night
Hy somo intuition tho truth struck
mo lu a moment. It was somo ono
como lo rob tho bank, and tho reverend
visitor of tho day before was a spy.
Tho first words 1 heard confirmed tho
truth of this conclusion, for I heard tho
Uov. Mr. Elliot's volco exclaim to his
confedcrato :
"Well, hero wo aro in this famous
stouo vault do you know Jim, wo got
In much easier than expected."
Thanks to your visit on Saturday
afternoon, Hobby, as onp of thu blacl;
coatedgentry."
Tho robbers then wero tho famous
"Whlto Haired Bfliiby" and "Sllpperry
Jim."
"Yes," relumed Bobby, "I think
gammoned tho two buffers pretty woll
You see, Jim, what it is to bo n man o
education. I should Just like to boo

"That ain't in my line, no how but
I tell you what, Hobby, you can't beat
moat picking a lock,"
"You nro pretty good nt that, and no
mistake. Hut come, let us get nt tho
swag."
"You aro buro you luivn't forgotten
how to open tlio safo, Hobby V"
"No indeed ; tho fool told mu that It
was by turning tho liautllo round Boven
times. Of nil llio blessed babies I ever
saw, I never saw nny ono to como up to
this man, Uralntrco."
I saw that It was now time for mo
act. Fortunately I had my pistol with
me. I drew It from niy pocket, cocked
It, and turned up tho lantern to Its
full,
I waited 'for tho door of tho uafo tu bo
opened, realizing fully that my only
chanco of overpowering tho two
ruf
fians, was to taku them by suiprlso.
For If I allowed them to recover them
selves from tho Buddcn effect of my
pcaranco, they being two to 0110, would
soon overpower mo.
I had not long to wait. I heard
handlo turn soven successlvo times,
then Bobby gavo a strong pull at
, heavy door of tho safe.
It yielded, but lit a moment I Hep-
icd out with tho dark lantern turned

it was a miuiiio or two beforo Mr.
Braintreo could reallzo tho news I
brought him. At last tho truth began
to dawn on his mind.
"You say tho villains are securely
bound on tho lloor In tho vault?''
"Yes."
"But who bound them?" ho asked,
moro nnd moro puzzled."
"I did."
"Who helped you?"
"No ono."
"But how the deuco comes It that
youweroon tho spot?"-
I then told him liow I had been fast
ened In tho Rafo and ho began to sco
throtigh'tho fog.
Whilo this conversation had been
progressing, Mr. Uralntrco had been
dressing himself. We went down to
gether, summoned the ofilccrs of thu
law, and nil proceeded to the vault.

hour thoy wero safely lodged In Jail.
It was tho last exploit of Whlto
Haired Bobby and Slippery Jim, for
they wcro tried, and public opinion
having been at last aroused at their ter-
riblo contempt of laws, human and ill-
no, thoy wero sentenced to the peni
tentiary for life.
Mr. liralntreo and the direeloisof tho
bank amply compensated mo for my
incarceration, declaring that it was tlio
most "fortunato Imprisonment" that
ad over occurred.
