Locked in a Safe.
A few days nao, wiys tho Rt. Louis
C'lmmlcio, n couple of ollloo boys In tlie
Eqiiltnlile Insurance Company rooms, ot
the corner of fifth and Oliver HtreoU, were
onj;ngod In jilnylng practical Joke on enoh
olhor. Tbo door of tlio massive Iron safe
stood open, ftiid Em II Unsafe, one of the
boys, conceived the Idea of locking his com
panion up In It. Quick a (lash lie proceed
ed to carry bis Idea into execution, and
being the stronger of (lie two, he Boon
thrust his frlnnd into the receptacle and
tboun'itlessly swung to the ((teat iron door.
For b moment or two bo enjoyed tho
success of hi iiim', but be suddonly be
thought hinuelf ihnt ho had no mentis of
extricating bM companion, owing to the
combination lock. Ho pulled finntically
nt tho little silver knob but succeeded only
ia disarranging the combination, and his
puny attacks on the iinenive safe were but
wastid strength. When (he thoughtless
little follow made bis discovory be was
screaming about tho room almost beside
himself with fear und calling loudly for as
sistance. Several person, boaring the
ciies, rushed into the room and soon were
apprised by the boy or what he bad done.
These gi'ttlenieu appreciated more fully
the dangerous predicament of the impris
oned boy than bis compauion did, and soon
discovered that it was impossible to rescue
the lad without the safe combination.
This unfortunately was poaessed by but a
single gentleman connected with the office.
Hurried inquiries made as to his where
abouts revealed the fact that be was noar
Kirk wood, probably ten-miles from the
office Btfore ho could be reached the boy
would be smothered. Some thing must be
done in tho meantime.
Many plans were quickly suggested, but
it waj decided to seud for a locksmith and
have a bole bored through tho door under
the lock in order to supply the imprisoned
boy with fresh air. A man was soon set
hurriedly to work. Iu the meantime the
screams of the boy had become fainter and
f.iinter, tud those that were watching be
gun to fear he had succumbed. At length
the thill bad pierced the thick iron door.
Tho li.eksmith pnt his ear to the hole and
could hear the gaspings of the lad inside.
Calling him be told him to keep his face
near the bole in order to catch ns much
fresh air as possible. The lad crawled
there and soon partially revived. Word
was despatched to the gentleman iu Kirk
wood, and he arrived at the office post
haste and set the boy at liberty, lie had
suffered considerably, not only for want of
air, but from fright, aud was deathly sick
fore some time afterward., lie was placed
iu the haudj of a physician, and has by'
this time fully recovered.
James R. Keene and His Corner In Wheat.
Chicago, 111., August 14. The Times
to-day publishes a lengthy resume of the
celebrated Keene wheat deal, which has
now been closed out with a loss to its or
ganizers mid participants of several mil
lions of dollars. This deal was organized
more than a year ago, James R. Keene and
Jesse lloyt, being its originators. With
them were associated Percy II. Smith,
George L. Dunlap, and Nathan Corwitb,
of Chicago, and Z. G. Simmons, and Judge
Howe, of Kenosha. The five last named
were allowed a quarter interest in tho syn
dicate. Ilovt had a quarter interest and
Keetie a half. The New York end as
sumed entire direction of the deal. Angus
Smith, of Milwaukee' thought he saw a
good chance in following the movements
of the syndicate and he guaged his specu
lations by theirs, and an agreement was
finally ai rived at, whereby, though he was
not to share in the profits of the syndicate,
he wus to be guided by its directors. At
one time the syndicate had ' bought 10,000,
000, busliols of wheat. They proposed to
close out tho deal last May. but the at
tempt did not realize their expectations
aud Cit y decided to postpone it till June
aud by renewed purchases force up the
price and then unload. For a time it look
ed as if this would succeed, but Ilazelton.
lloyt's partner here, began selling right
odlofr, and (he market disappeared.
Now almost all their wheat has either been
shipped or sold, and the Chicago owners
of one-quarter interest in the deal find
themselves each from $250,000 to 800,000
out. What Ke'ene's and Hoyt's loss is
cannot be estimated, and Mr. Smith's loss
is estimated somewhere from $250,000 to
TOO, 000.
A Gilpin Ride.
A cltsrgyniMii in a little town up near
Rochester has recently had an experience
that reminded him of John Gilpin. Ho
Lod retired from active duty on account of
it'ivanoed age, bat was invited to conduct a
funeral.- He asked the livery man for a
quiet horse, and was given, one compara
tively as venerable as himself, a sober-look-I
it: beast that would seem hardly capable of
anything like liveliness, and well adapted
ia appearAuoe to carry a rider iu a funeral
rocesioo. The servioes were held at the
house, then the procession started for the
gi-hve yard. The parson was to ride at the
head, but started at the rear, and in order
t- hurry up aud get to his proper position,
pulled the rein tight. He didn't know
that this horse had been trained to run like
a streak of lightning when tho roins were
pulled tight. The venerable horse shot
past the carriages and henrse liko a rail
road train passing a canal boat. The par
son pulled harder, this lime to check him,
but tho horse went faster, and was soon
out of sight In a cloud of dust. Everybody
felt awfully mall and cut up about ltexoept
the corpse.
A Priest Elopes with a Pretty Girl.
' Denver, Col., August 10. The Tribune
has a long special dispatch from Messilla,
New Mexico, to the effect that there is
much excitement throughout the Messilla
Valley over the elopement of Father Todora
Itoualt, a priest of Las Cruccs, and a bril
liant and beautiful young lady named Miss
Margueretta Garcia, from the Convent of
the Sisters of Loretto, who recontly entered
that institution, it Is said, at the solicita
tion of the priest against the wishes of her
parents. After continued scandalous pro
ceeding?, the couple eloped, nnd were
overtaken at a small hamlet, whence the
priest appeared en difhabllleand wa9 struck
nnd would have been killed by nu uncle
of the girl had not officers of the law lutcr
fered. The priest and girl were finally
married. The former tells horrible stories
about bishops and other priests.
Dangerous Melons.
The colored people of Halifax were hold
ing an "association" of a religious nature
recently, and a large number of them con
gregated daily in close proximity to a fine
watermelon patch owned by a white man.
The watermelons disappeared daily, and it
was an easy matter to connect their absence
with the presence of the association.
Therefore tho owner of tho patch put up a
large placard, beariug this legend : "Look
out, these wateimelons ore poisoned !"
The colored people thought this was all a
hoax, aud some of them waded into the
watermelons anyhow, and the result has
been fata! to one and leaves four or five
others in a dangerous condition. The
melons had strychnine introduced Into
them through punctures so delicate as not
to be observed, but of sufficient strength
to be fatal. Danville ( Va.) Aetw.
