The next liorse bandied wan that of I'. M.

When Gov. Cleveland vvus bete lit Albany
a man came te the deer of the executive
chamber and -aid his name was MUler ; that
he was a Hutfalenlan, but becerulDg money meney
less with his family he was embargoed here
In the city and he wanted te see the governor
and state his case, hoping he would help him
aud his family te Duflale. It was evenlug
and the governor told the doorkeeper te let
Mr. Miller In. The governor looked sharply
at the man, but he did net knew him.
"1 am lu the lumber buslness In Buffalo,1'
began Miller, "and I am anxious with my
family te be In Bulfale te-morrow. The tralu
lea.-e-s lu nu hour. If you will only help me
I will send the money back te morrow. No
body knew s me here or 1 w euld get a check
cashed. I also own a farm near Buffalo and
1 shall keep the executive mansion stocked
with apples all winter."
Miller was neatly dressed aud Intelligent
in smwrirance. All the time he conversed
with the governor he kepl pulling a hand
kerchief ever an apparently bruised wrist
Meanwhile the doorkeeper In another room
hnd looked up the Millers In a Butlale dlroc dlrec
tnrv. ami thore was n Miller In the lumber
business In that city with the Initials Miller
gave when he prosentod his card, This lact
was communicated te Gov. Cleveland upeu
a card unknown te Mlllor,whem the governor
had kept In conversation.
"I have net a great deal of money with
me." said Gov. Cleveland, handing Miller
eight dollars. "This is all I have, aud you
are welcome-"
"Thank you," said MUler. "That w ill Just
help me out nicely. I'll send It back te you
te-morrow night, aud hall a dozen barrels of
apples with it"
'I hat night (, rover Cloveland went home
without a cent lu his pockets. But before he
went home something aroused a suspicion In
his mind that Miller waa alraud. He sum
inened one of the clerks, told him theclrcum
stauces, gave a description of the man, aud
ordered him te wrlte te a certain fctate prlreu
and see it such a party answering Miller's de
scription with a bruised lelt wrist, bad uet
been discharged a day or two toeferobe carae
te the executive chamber. In rorty-eighl
hours back came a letter from the prtoeti,
gtving n perlect description of Miller , that
he had n small abscess ou his loll vvrlat ,
detalled the exact color and Bhape el the
clothes he wero when he left the prison, and
when he left town he bought a ticket ler Al
bany. It seems Miller was net his name,
tout in twenty.feur hours alter he left prison,
where he had served a sontenco of live years
he prosented hltiwlf te the govorner aud
victimized him out of eight dollars. This
waa superhuman cheek. Grever Cloveland
has novel yet aeen hla eight dell.sis ei Hie
