GAN'i LET

By WARREN MILLER ' "Mr. Humphrey," said the rreaMeut of tbe baak, who bad sent for me to com to hU private office, "we bats t3u,000 to go to M. today, and I have a mind to send It by you. WonM you care to undertake the drliveryY' I didn't like the Job. for we were In the fur west, where desin-radoes slmnnded, and if one of them su'-peet-ed I bad so large an siuomit with Die murder would not stand In ills wtty to possess It. But tf I vl-,hel imuuoUon tu tbe bsnk It would nri'er do fur me to film'U at such au offer, whh-h was really au order. Ho 1 accented the '-burge. I left tbe bank wltb thirty l tills tn a Large pwketbonk In the bresst pooket of my coat of course froiu tbe start I bad my eye ou everybody tn sl'.'lit. wondering It some one of tbein was not Inteudlug to rob me. One person arrested my attention from the -ie-culisrfty of his api-esrance. He was standing on the bank steps wben L went onr. looking carelessly up the street. Ho wore green s's-ctach's. s rerv shabby suit and a hisb plug lint. The most remarkable feature of his siiparel was a waistcoat wltb stripes re.-eniblhig ibose of a aebra. He waevlileully down on bis link and had ptrketl up bts clothes plecem!, where he could And tbein cast off from their original owuers. He paid uo attention , to m. Indeed, I bad no evidence tbat he was aware of my existence. Oolug to niy room, I took a ault ease full of clothes and oa emerging noticed the wan wltb the xehrs waistcoat ou the opposite side of tbe street looking In st a shop window. Ills bark was to me, and I kept my eye on blin till I bad turned a comer. In tills way I made mire he had not seen me come out of Ihe house nor during my going away from It. Proceeding to the station. I boarded tbe train, and as It rolled out tbe ear door opened, and who should step In but the man wltb tbe zebra waistcoat. He gave me a glance as he took his seat, aud 1 knew be had spotted me for a victim. Rut why this fsutastlc attire? Then It all rushed nuou me suddenly. It was to attract my sttentlon from some confederals wbo n keeping me In sight snd wbo doubtless bad Informed bim of my proceeding. Tbey could only have received the Information of my bearing tbe money from some one tn the bank wbo bsd lrt It out for gain or nnlntenttonslly. My heart sank within me. But we are all natural gamblers, and I st onco Uld out a game for my money and my life. 1 picked tip my suit ca-e. which I had deposited on the floor, and held It on my lap. Then I went to tbe water cooler for a drink, carrying the suit cane with nie. NeJt I changed my seat, never for a moment letting tbe suit case out of my hand. Finally I opened It, pretending to make sure as I did so tbat no eye was uion me, snd, tbrustiug my hand In between the clothing, gave evidence by my expression that what I sought wss there. Meanwhile an ugly looking man In a woolen shirt aud sombrero went and sat dowa by the msn with the aehrs walsti-oat, and tbe latter gave bim sum piece of Information which 1 wss sure referred to the money being hi the suit case. Not feeling that my effort to throw the men off the scent would avail for when they mhhed me, not finding the money wbere they expected It. tbey would for.-o me to prodine It -I concluded to get off tbe train at the first stop. 1 did so and saw lb two men standing on the platform a. well. Aa tbe train moved on I stopped sboanL and my followers re-entered at the other end of tbe car. I looked about me to see If there waa any one oa whom 1 could rely fur help. There were not bulf a dozen persons, and they would all lie frightened out of tbelr wits the moment tbe attack was made. I saw my enemies consulting earnestly and folt sure the blow was slnut to fall. The train was running through a sparsely settled country. While looking out of tbe window 1 saw a short distance abend a man standing in a Hold holding tbreo horses. Suddenly the usn with the rebra waist'-nut sprung "p. seized ih liell cord and puil-d It vlc"ro isl.r. It liapiieiicd that at the same liine the conductor came Into the t ar for tickets. Tbe brakes were put on, and tbe train slowed up. The conductor, seeing no reason for stopping, sngrily gav a signal to proceed. , Uke wblrlwlnd the two men dashed past me aud aa tbey did so seised my suit case, ('arfyliig It with them, (fiey Jumped off tbe train Just as It wss moving on with accelerated speed. I saw tbem run for the horses. All mounted, aud as tbey dashed away tbe man with the sebra waistcoat held the ault rase aloft triumphantly snd waved bis plug hat. 1 explained the lustter to no one, keeping my secret till I bad delivered lb money and returned, wben I told tbe presSdent of the bsnk. The Ind. dent led to the discovery that our porter was In league with a gang of road agents. Tn president gav me my chore of a nig reward for saving the mosey or th position ef assistant cashier, which he created tor me. I chose th latter, soon became canblsr and am now president of th bank. I often wish to have seen tbe expres loll on tbe rebherif faces when tbey opened tbe suit raa and found no l-ionov. -,.1 J- rye
