BALLAED REFORMED.

A NOTED COUNTERFEITER'S MANY CRIMES.

Recalled by the Approach of Ie»th—Thoa. C. B*Ilard, "The King of the Counterfeiter#," ud HI* Mad Career—A Terrible

Sacrifice for hi* Sake.

E A O ketpsie.K, Y-.and where the ocean tides come and go there is now a re in it the last throes of death. At any moment he may close his eyes in the embrace of death. Then will have ended a career remarkable in the criminal an a of country.

The name of Thomas C. Ballard Is known by the police and secret service detectives in every section of this country. In his own profession he has been known as "the King of the Coinackers,'" so perfect had he become in the art of counterfeiting.

Thoutrh now dying at Ponghkeepsie he has not lived there in many years owing to long terms of imprisonment. It was there where he was born, anil there now he is quite forgotten by those who knew him long ago. Of course he still bears an assumed name. lie was born in Poughkeepsie in 184.', and was one of five brothers who all entered the "queer" business. His first tutor was an Knglishman named Lavelle. Under him Ballard studied engraving, chemistry and paper miking, ana became so proficient in each that he could have made a dozen fortunes had he been minded to follow a legitimate business, but ho was a born crook and woald rather defy the law than eat.

It was during th" war that the king ran a race with the United states treasury in inflating the currency. The work he did was altogether in the fractional notes that preceded the resumption of specte payment and his operations were not sus-

Ktint

cted until a fire in the old Ferry house, which still stands at the foot of .Jackson stroet, revealed them. The blaze did not amount to anything, but a mattress was thrown from an upper window and burst open. To the surprise of the firemen it contained a largo quantity of fu-cent notes.

A further search of the house revealed the fact that it was used by the counterfeiters ns a storage place for their sroods, thev having rented a room there as mattress manufacturers. Lavullo was never arrested and has never been hoard of sinco, and at that time no one suspected Mallard, who was a mere boy. The most of the notes were turned over to the United States officials, but for a few days the denizens of the "Hook" revelled in them.

Tho notes were so good that thev deceived United States Treasurer Spinner, and at first he would not believe that thoy were bad, but tho plates captured were shown to him, and he htid to give in. These plates bore a vignette of Justice, and, at tho suggestion oi General Spinner, his own face was placed over his wonderful autograph, out it did no good, for Mallard mado a new set of plates with Splnnor's picture on liem and wont on with his race with tho Treasury.

After this Mallard branched out Into larger schemes. With the aid of

"lont BallafiV-

•Jhnrles L. lllnmim. who owned a oar*iage factory on Twenty-second street, flear Broadway, and Michael Miner, a nromwumt politician and contractor, a co-imrlncrship was formed which they called the "folnnokors." Moth Mallard «n«il Miner were associated with Hlnmnn in the earrhge business, and they wort1 regarded as a firm of the highest resoeetability. This was just what Mali art! wanted.

The firm opened a shop for the tnanufaeturv of carriage trimmings at No. Hivingion street, and did enough business there to avert all suspicion. Ballard *eemed to lie the only one employed thor*\ Imt the neighbor* thought nothing of that. The house is a five story double Hat with stores underneath, and the N'olnaekers" had one-half of it, It was on the third 0mr that Ballard had his prcssers, where the counterfeits were turned Out by the millions* The very boldness of his operations prevented all suspicion, and although the country was scoured for the counterfeiter* by the officers of the Secret Service, they never thought of looking in a New York tenement house that was occupied by a dospen families.

The whole gang was finally exposed in t-:i, being gi*en away by a 'Vhov^r."

Hinman was not suspect#*! at the time, and when the matter was put into \hv hands of the New York police he h.ni disappeared. Miner wivs eaaWed to get off by the

This plate it was subsequently discovered ne took across the Roosevelt street ferry and buried on Long Island. Then he went to. Texas. After he thought that New York officials had forgotten him he re-

turned for his buried elates. He eluded all the officers, but foand that during his alsence the Long Island railroad had built a portion of its line directly over his cache, and that the plates were hopelessly lost to him. as it would take half a day to dig them up and that all trains must be stopped while he was at work. Ballard had always refused to tell just where these plates are.

A few years later there suddenly appeared an astonishing counterfeit 8500 Treasury note, specimens of which were actually accepted as genuine at the redemption agency in Washington. In point of workmanship it was as good as the genuine, and it was printed on fibre paper. It was traced to Buffalo, antl Ba.lard was surprised there in his workshop, which was the best equipped ever discovered in the United States.

A complete chemical labratory formed one of the features, another was occupied by presses and paper, while a third was devoted to the purposes of engraving. A barn in the rear of the house contained powerful electric batteries. Ballard was finally sentenced to thirty years' imprisonment. Some years later Ballard took French leave of the Albany penitentiary by his favorite method of sawing1 through the roof. Four other prisoners escaped with him, but all were recaptured the following day, Ballard in Homer, Cortland county,. He was placed in a cell again, ana twice tried to commit suicide—once by hanging and once by cutting his threat. The last time ho was nearly successful. He was pardoned by President Cleveland on June 30, 1887, at the request of his wife, who iR also an expert counterfeiter.

For somo months ofter his release, a close watch was kept on him by treasury officials. It finally ceased when it was clear that Ballard had reformed for good, llis wife, as might be expected, always remained faithful to him, and is now by his bedside in his last moments. In 1871 she made a great sacrifice for him. Consumption, whieli dlseaso is at last about to claim him, had begun to weigh heavily. In tho midst of his trouble treasury detectives surprised them. The wife swore that she alone was guilty of the particular offense charged. She was sentencod to five years but her husband's life was saved for tho time being. It was this piece of lieoric womanhood which most appealed to Urovor Cleaveland when he signed Ballard's pardon papers.

MARRIED A PRINCESS.

American "Duck*" in lieniand In (lie South Sen Inlands. A romantic story comes from the Paumolo Islands in the South Pacific. William (iibsou has just returned from there and savs that Samuel Harris, years old. who was born and reared in San Francisco, and Jias been for five years in the islands, has married the daughter of King Tokolala, and has been made Prime Minister. When Harris left San Francisco he went to trading in the Islands. He had small capital but he turned it to good account, and soon became identified with the pearl fisheries at tho harbor of Tokolaia, and quickly made so much money that for two or three years he has controlled the fisheries and is known as the pearl kin^. The King of the islands is proud of his enterprising son-in-law and openly states that at his death he will confer the seepter on him.

Ono particularly dark morning, some two hours after midnight, young Morice heard the approach of his aunt Paulino, accompanied by his father and mother, the latter having a dark lantern. All went into the bedroom of the old couple. Pauline said: "Come, children, let us embrace them."

Morice sei/.ed his grandmother and choked her. Pnuline threw a cord around (lie neck of her father, while Kmonet cut her throat. Morice having done the same for Mere Jauneau, the whole party began a search for whatever valuables they could put their hands on.

It was not until last week that the case came up. Then, consciencestricken, Morice confessed and gave full details of the crime.

In the singular he is a clever but unfortunate Hindoo boy who is, perhaps, doomed all his life to carry his little brother around with him.

The boy's mother bore four children, all of whom but the half twin being normal and healthy. The father is now 51 years old. the mother 4.V Lalloo and a sister alone survive of the children.

THE GHOST WALKS-

It Is Not „a Saturday Night OhMt, However." -No greater excitemcnt ever prevailed in Jacksonport, Ark., than now stirs that town. A few nigbts ago street pedestrians and citizens who were sitting on their front porches were Startled by the appearance of a tall woman moving swiftly along ttie middle of the street, clothed in sablef garments, with a black veil or long raven hair falling in heavy folds to her waist. She said not a word, but moved &

ahead. When spoken to she fled a short distance and disappeared. The next night she repeated this and has every night since. The negroes are terribly frightened and refuse to wander the streets at night as heretofore. When a negro woman sees,the phantom she utters screams and hies in the house. Armed men have laid in wait for her without success. The general opinion is that the ghost is one of a gang of thieves, who have been committing robberies in that section, and has fallen npon this seheme to frighten the negroes off the streets who prowl around at night. The town is in arms and it the apparition is captured blood will surely flow.

Killed tlmlr I'arenta for 8600. AtCaboche, one hundred and thirty miles to the southeast of Paris,France, lived for many years on a farm an old couple named .launeau.

The .Jauneaus had two daughters, one married to M. Chailton, the Stewart of a nobleman's estate, the other to Morico Kmonet, a small farmer. Chailton died in November last. He left his widow in straitened circumstances. She allowed herself to accept the favors of Count de the nobleman for whom her dead husband had worked.

Her parents had both turned eighty, but were unusually vigorous, so that they were able to keep houne and manage the little farm with only the assistance of young Morice, their son-in-law.

A family counsel wa held to devise a plan by which the money belonging to Pere .Inuneau couid be divided without wail».i*.f for his death. The decision was that the old folks must die at once and that all should assist in the bloody tragedy.

MAMMA'S YOUTH.

Soft through the latticed casement shines The sun's last gUmmYing ray, While Grandma nods and Icaits betimes

She nods the livelong day. Her hair is white, and farrows deep Are on her brow so mild. And playing at her feet there kneels

A lovely fair haired child.

Why do yon nod?" the baby cries, "Why knit you ever there? You're not as pretty as Mamma,

For she has golden hair. And, Grandma, all around your eyes Great wrinkles I can see. Your face is marred, while dear Mamma's

Is fair, as fair can be.'* Then Grandma lovingly replied, "Not long does beauty stay. For wrinkles come as years go by.

Mamma 'U be old some day." O'er baby's face there came a cloud. O'er fair face framed in gold, "Yon naughty Grandma," then she cried, "Mamma can ne'er grow old!" -Mrs. J. T. Greenlaaf in Good Housekeeping.

A "BONNET AND NECKTIE" EVENING.

An Enjoyable Method of Entertaining a Jolly Crowd of Young People. For utter whimsicality and absence of all stiffness in an evening party the "bonnet" party cannot be excelled. Invite from ten to twenty of the nicest girls you know, and ask each to bring with her a pair of scissors, a thimble and an pld bonnet frame of an}' age, size or shape. If some of them come from grandma's trunks in the garret instead of from last year's hat box, so much the better. The frames must be absolutely bare, but each young lady will be asked to contribute enough material—old ribbon, silk, velvet, artificial flowers or feathers—to trim an average bonnet, allowing generous measure.

Send invitations to as many young men as girls, and ask each to bring of any stuff whatever, enough to make a necktie, whether "four-in band," "puff," "claudent" or plain straight bow. And tell each one to come provided with a thimble.

When your guests have assembled the first step is to divide the oompany into pairs. The "partner cards" having all been drawn, the lady and gentleman holding No. 1 go together to the tables where the frames, ribbons, etc., have been arranged, and while he chooses a bonnet and the materials which he thinks most appropriate, she picks out from another pile the piece of goods which she thinks will make him the most becoming necktie.

Then they secure a supply of the needles and thread provided by the hostess, and sit down to sew while pair No. 2 come forward, and so on until each lady is busily engaged with a gentleman and a necktie and each gentleman Is giving his attention to a lady and a bonnet. As neither is supposed to give the other any help or advice, the fun is endless.

At the expiration of the time set the hostess rings a bell, and each pair of contestants present themselves with bonnet in place, and necktie arranged with all the art its fair maker can muster. As he comes before the committee every gentleman must, if requested, make a little speeoh, pointing out the chief merits of its production, and the difficulties which attended its manufacture. When the review is over the committee—consisting of the hostess and, if possible, several otner noncontestants—retires to compare notes, and soon the award of prises is announoed.

Two of these will be sufficient—one to the gentleman who, all difficulties considered, has produced the most artistic and becoming bonnet, and the other to the lady whose necktie is pronounced most satisfactory. The prises may bo necktie or handkerchief cases, court plaster case: (for the needle wounds), scarfpins, hatpins, bonbon boxes in the shape of hats, eto.— Edna Warwick in Ladies' Home Journal.

How to Remove Stains.

Just as stitch in time saves nine, a stain promptly eradicated very often preserves a good garment, and it is well, therefore, to keep on your washstand the materials necessary for prompt treatment. Carriage grease is perhaps the most exasperating, and apparently the most hopeless, of all stains, but even this will yield to immediate and proper care. As soon as possible take some bits of old, clean calico and rub the place thoroughly with butter. If done at once, this will generally remove the black and dirty grease entirely, leaving in its place merely a butter stain, and this, treated in its turn with odorless benzine, will disappear.

Paint, after it dries, is hard to remove, but it yields at once to turpentine if applied when it is fresh. On dark clothes, however, turpentine itself leaves a traoe which calls for benzine. This generally prevents the stains from reappearing in obvious and ugly fashion whenever exposed to any dust. But, after all is said and done, the best advice is, "TIT not to get spots on your clothes."—St. Paul Pioneer-Press.

A Ml*take Few Wires Make. There is a young married woman of my acquaintance whose first wifely experience with the needle resulted in a capital joke on her. She found what appeared to be two immense rips on the inside of the tails of her husband's frock cQat, and while he was down town she carefully sewed them up. When the young man came home to lunch his wife met him, coat in hand. "I've just mended it," she said "there were two awful rips in the tails of it." "Let me see," said the husband of the industrious young woman. "I didn't know there was a tear In it." "Yes, there was light there." "But those are the"

The young man caught the look of innocent doubt on his wife's face and stopped. "Yes, those were fearful rips. Things were getting in them all the time."

And the young man went down to his office and picked out the threads in order to get at his bank book and a few letters that he had in those tail pockets.—Kansas City Times,

Save You* Finjtr Nails.

»"You must enjoy breaking your finger nails off," said a lady to her friend, who was pulling and tugging at the heavy cord around a large parcel. "Why don't you invest twenty-five cents in a pair of pincers and keep them in your workbasket? You will find them the greatest imaginable savidg of finger nails, temper and time, Bay nothing of cord. I used to have no end of bother in getting my parcels undone, and almost invariably hurt myself, and then got desperate and cut the cord all to pieces, but I found that didn't pay, for when I wanted a bit of twine there was nothing but odds and ends to be found.

Finally, one day a parcel came while I was using the pincers for some other purpose, and, merely because it was the handiest thing to do, I undid the string with them. The result is that I keep a pair, indeed, three or four pairs, around the house ever since. The habit of cutting cord from bundles has its disadvantages, as when one needs apiece it involves an often unsuccessful search. Nowadays I untie all of the strings, roll them in little bundles and put them in a corner of the kitchen drawer. It has saved me many a minute of time and much vexation to be able to lay my hands on such trifling conveniences.— New York Ledger.

The Appearance of the Cossack. "The Cossack in his village," says a Russian traveler, "lives and works like all other peasants, but he can be distinguished in a crowd of other villagers. The Cossacks and their women have straight, stalwart, wiry figures. In comparison with them the other peasants are angular, undergrown and flabby. The Cossack's face is beautiful, too, although it is somewhat colorless but in this regard it is like the average Slav. The Russian countenance is not decorative, so to speak it is not attractive at the first .glance you must look at it to see its comeliness. Look at the Cossack's face and you find it beautifully oval in form, with large, bold eyes of a bright blue color, with a straight, sharp nose. The whole expresses nobility and determination. It reminds one of a bold beast of prey. The beast of prey cannot easily be tamed it refuses to submit even to tho influence of love, and yields with ill grace to its demands. Such is the case with the Cossack too."

Just Like a Woman.

"That's a nice cat," said a man passing the door of a small shop on Woodward avenue. 'Everybody seems to think so. Here, Tomfiome and drink your milk," said the proprietor of the shop and of the cat. "Must have been a fine breed," said the stranger, patting Tom's sleek sides and admiring his handsome spiked collar. "That's where you are wrong," said Tom's owner. "He was a poor little gutter snipe, as thin as a crow, and my wife saw him and took pity on him. That's like a woman. I kicked about it, but she took the kitty in and gave it fresh milk and a bath every day, and now I wouldn't take $100 for the cat. No, sir he ain't for sale at any price. He's one of the family, Tom is. But I tell you, stranger, my wife don't value it now as much as she did when it was a poor, forlorn little kitten. And that' is like a woman too."—Detroit Free Press.

It is said that Mme. Pntti and other women of high standing on the -stage pre-' serve most carefully the boots they wore! at their debut, which they consider lucky to wear on the first nights of engagements forever after.—Newark Standard.

Queen Elisabeth's Gold Covered Book. A fashion of expensive bindings prevailed foralorig time, and"great skill was exhibited in bindings ornamented by embroidery and various styles of needlework, as well as in biudings studded with precious stones. Queen Elizabeth used to carry about with her, suspended by a golden chain, a book called "The Golden Manual of Prayer," bound in solid gold. On one side was a representation of "the Judgment of Solomon," on the other the brazen serpent with the wounded Israelites looking at it.—St. Nicholas.

When to Use the Drippings. It is not customary to serve beef, mutton or lamb with a brown gravy made from the dripping in the pan, for there is always a little dripping in the pan even with the best roasting. But a brown gravy should always be prepared from these drippings in order to utilize them, and this may be used for a meat pie or a stew or in various ways when the meat is served up a second time.—New York Tribune.

•'Not all is gold that elitters" is a true saying it is equally true that not all is sarsaparilla that is so labelled. If you woula be sure of the genuine article, ask for Ayer's Sarsaparilla, and take no other. Health is too precious to be trifled with.
