We'll take a drink and Hickled the monte-tosser into the card|of a fashionable sample-room. next day a genteel, solemn-look-in entered the gentleman's parlors lllard's Hotel, which were filled [senators, congressmen and officers and holders of all grades.

down family. If you will aid them please ask no further questions, but give what oa see fit."

In the entire hotel the gentlemanly beggar only received three donations of twentv-five cents each. The others waive'd him apparently aside, while some plainly told him he was an old imposter. [Jefore leaving, he said quietly to the three gentlemen who had given him the money: "This will be repaid you tenfold tomorrow evening at this hour."

He then took the address of each, asking them to not fail to be in the parlor next evening to get their money, and cautioning them to speak to no one of his promise—that he was Sir Orlando Matterson, president of the Royal London Society for the Encouragement of Benevolence.

As a matter of course, before he had got a block away from the hotel every one knew all that he had said and done, and all considered him some crazy fanatic. Then a report got about that he was immensely rich but an insane English nobleman, who spent yearly hundreds of thousands of dollars in seeking those who were willing to lend aid to the needy, and in rewarding them afterwards, so that according to hi6 cracked brain, the cause of charity might be in a general way ac eeleratcd.

The next evening he came again asking alms, and everyone was on the lookout for him. He first singled out the hree gentlemen who had given him 25 cents each, and very quietly passed each an envelope containing $2 50, and a small card, upon which was printed "Give, and you 6hall receive.' 'Ca-d your bread on the waters and it shall be returned to vou tenfold.' Remember the example of Sir Orlando Matterson, as you journey through life."

Sir Orlando Matterson, look $73 in donations from the house that night aid it was noticeable that those whom his example has thus quickened were very careful that he should have their correct address. The same result followed in each of the scores of hotels and samplerooms which he had initiated on the night before. Tae third niglit he, with a solemn face, returned to each donor of the previous night the exact tenfold promised.

It would be a joy which I would con-sider-cheaply purchased," said he confi dently to a dozen gentleman, "if at the cost of half a million dollars 1 could teach th2 citizens of this beautiful city to be thoroughly generous to the poor,"

This night he was like a ticket-seller at the railroad depot. One, two, five t^n, and even twenty dollar bills were shoved at hitr 0.1 all sides, so great had been the awakeing the cause of bi-nevoleuce, which the example of Sir Orlando Matterson had aroused. A benign smile hovered about his mouth, and a tear that glitered betimes in his mild, kind e^e proclaimed the joy his soul felt as he shoved bill aiter bill into his pockets, und gazed with the look of a father upon hi& converts.

That night Canada^Bill Showed up to Beau ilicKinan something over eighteen thousand dollars. "We'll split her now." suggested Bill, as he ceased counting.

Twouldn't give you $12,000," quoth Hickman. "Let it'be till to-morrov night. 1 think 1 can raise a little 'hush mone)' on this racket."

Next night Beau Hickman went the rounds, and found groups of expectant converts wailing to see Sir Orlando Matterson. One at a time, as fast as he could do so, he would take one alter another of the most prominent gentlemen aside, and whisper in ins ear: "1 have got a liltle subscription book here which was handed to me by a iriend a« he took the train tnis morning tor New York, Sorry you got sold on Sir Orlando Matterson. He's skipped out. That was Canada Bill the three card monte man." "Is that 60:" "Sure. Here's the book with \our name in for $20.

Well for gracious fake, Beau, don't show that note book to anyone. And scratch my name off 'of it, wiil you?'' "Certainly," returned Hickman, as he scratched over the name with 111s pencil: "but governor, I'mkind-a-shortu»-night Couldn't you lend ma $20 till to-mor. ow?''

With a wry face the victim would pull forth his pocketbook, and, placing the bill demanded in Hickman's hand, would slip quietly from the hotel to the strtet. a .-

That night the twO worthies divided, and the share of each as over twelve thousand dollars.

Both Beau Hickman and Canada Bill, whose tricks on the unwary obtained ior them thousands of dollars, died poor, and were buried as paupers ana the moral is, that no matter how much a man makes dishonestly or by trickery, he will sooner or later be found out and doubtless die a miserable, deserted outca

A Medina boy invited several of his friends to his father's house to have a good time the other evening. The boy6 were given the dining room "all to themselves." When the lady of the house vetnured to look in upon the happy party, the picture presented was not exactly of a kind to quiet her nerves. An' adjoining room had been despoiled of its bed. The straw tick had been placed in the midst of the dining room, and one of the lads had worked his way inside of it until all that appeared was his head. A battle was in progress, and pillows were used as weapons. Several squirt-guns also did good service on the Aanks and wall paper, while various kinds of liquids served as ammunition. In the midst of all this the lady of the house meekly inquired if that was the way they acted when they went visiting. "Sho! that's nothing,"'said one. "Down at 's, the other night, we got his fat hog into the parlor, tapped the cistern and let the water out, and then took down the kitchen stove and set it up in tfie garret."

A Swiss locksmith has invented a target which, by means of electricity, shows upon another target set up at the firing station the exact spot where the bullet strikes, and thus does away with the necessity of a marker to signal the result of each shot.

"THE TERRE HAUTE WEEKLY GAZETTE.

"A MYSTERY. W"5**

[Continued Frem Third Page.:

and thence throuzh a window, unfortunately open, into the street. The Frenchman followed in despair the ape, razor stiH in hand, occasionally stopping to look back and gesticulate at its pursuer, until the latter had nearly come up with it. In this manner the chase continued for a long time. The streets were profoundly quiet, as it was nearly three o'clock in the morning. In passing an alley in the rear of the Rue Morgue, the fugitive's attention was arrested by a ligbt gleaming from the open window of Madame L'Espanaye'6 chamber, in the fourth story cf her house. Ruching to the budding, it perceived the lightnir.g-rod. clambered up with inconceivable agility, grasped the shutter, which was thrown fully back against the wall, and, by its means swung itself directly upon the headboard of the bed. The whole feat did not occupy a minute. The snutter was kicked' open again by the Ourang-Outang it entered the room.

The sailor in the meantime, was both rejoiced und perplexed. He had tirong hopes of now recapturing the bruK*. as it could scarcely escape from the ap into which it had ventured, except by 11. nd, where it might he intercepted as it down. On the other hand, there was much cause for anxiety as to what it might do in the house. This latter reflection urged the mart still to follow the fugitive. A lightning-rod is ascended without difficulty, especially by a sailor but when he had arrived as high as the window, which lay far to his left, his career was stopped the most that he could accomplish was to reach over so as to obtain a glimpse of the interior of the room. At this glimpse he nearly fell from his hold through excess of horror. Now it was that those hideous shrieks arose upon the night, which had startled from dumber the inmates of the Rue Morgue, Madame L'Espaoaye and her daughter, habited in their night clothes, had apparently been occupied in arranging same papers it: the iron chest already mentioned, which had been wheeled into the middle of the room. It was open, und its contents lay beside it on the fl or. The victims must have been sitting with their backs toward the window and from the time elapsing between the ingress of the beast and the screams, it seemd probable that it was not inimediately perceived. The fiapping-to of ihe shutter would naturally have been attributed to the wind.

As the sailor looked in, the gigantic animal had seized Madame LaGspanaye by the hair,( which was loose, as she had been combing it,) and was flourishing the razor about her lace, in imitation of the mot'ons of a barber. The daughter lay prostrate and motionless 6he had swoomed. The screams and struggles of the old lad (during which the hair was torn from her head) had the eftsct of changing the probably pacific purposes ot the Ourang-Outang into those of wrath. With one determined sweep of its muscular arm it nearly severed her head from her body. The sight of blood inflamed its anger into phrenzy. Gnashing its teeth and flashing fire from its eyes, it flew upon the body of the girl, and imbedded its fearful talons in her throat, retaining its grasp until she expired. 1st wandering and wild glances fell at this moment upon the head of the bed, over which the face of its master, rigid with horror, was just discernable.

The fury of the beast, who no doubt bore still in mind the dreaded whip, wa6 instantly converted into fear. Conscious of having deserved punishment, it seemed desirous of cjncealing its bloody deeds, and skipped about the chamber in an agony of nervous agitation throwing down and breaking the furniture as it moved, and draging the bed from the bedstead. In conclusion, it seized first the corpse of the daughter, and thrust it up the chimney, as it wan found then that of the lady, which it immediately Juried through the window headlong.

As the ape approached the casement with its mutilated burden, the sailor shrank aghast to the rod, and, rather gliding than clambering down it, hurried at once home—dreading the consequences of the butchery, and gladly abandoning, in his tenor, all 'solicitude about the fate of the Ourang Outang. The words heurd by ihe party upon the staircase were the Frenchman's exclamations ot horror and affright, commingled with the fiendish jabberings of the brute.

I have scarcely anything to add. The Ourang-Outang must have escaped from the chamber, by the rod, just before the breaking of the door. It must have closed the window as it passed through it. It was subsequently caught by the owner himself, who obtained for it a very large sum at the Jardin des Plantts. Le Bon was instantly released, upon our narration of the circumstances (with some comments from jJupin) at the bureau of the Prefect of Police. The functionary, however well disposed to my friend, could not altogether conceal his chagrin at the turn which affairs had taken, and was fain to indulge in a sarcasm or two, about the piopriety of every person minding his own business. "Let him talk," said Dupin, who had not thought it necessary to reply. "Let him discourse it will ease his conscience. I am satisfied with having defeated him in his own castle. Nevertheless, that he failed in the solution of this mystery, is by no means that matter for wonder which he supposes it for, in truth, our friend the Prviect is tomewhat too cunning to

SENAfOR VOORHEES.—HE

Iltt THINKS TKB POTTER COMMITTER

ARE MAKING ASSES OF THEMSELVES, AND THAT THURMA2C IS THE COMING MAN, The Illinois State Register prints the following as the result of an interview with Senator Voorhees:

Reporter—What is your opinion of the Potter investigation? Mr. Voorhees—I think it comes to late Had it taken place prior to tiie 4th of March, 1877, a different result would have been reached from that which will be by the present investigation.

Reporter—What do you think would have been the result in that event? Mr. Voorhees—I think it would have been clearly demonstrated that Tilden and Hendricks were elected President and Vice-President of the United States.

Reporter—Is it not possible that the present investigation will demonstrate the same thing?

Mr. Voorhees—No. The Republicans have fortified all the avenues of knowledge as to the election frauds in Louisiana and Florida.

Reporter—But, let me suppose that it were possible, and that the Potter committee should demonstrate that the Democratic candidates were really elected, what then?

Mr. Voorhees—The finding would be fruitless. The passage ol the electoral commission bill, its approval by the President', the decision of the commission, the ratification of that decision by the Forty-fourth Congress, and the subsequent approval by the Forty-fifth Congress, places the reopening of the presidential question beyond the range of possibility.

Reporter—In what estimation will the movers of the investigation be held by the public generally?

Mr. Voorhees—They can only be regarded as disturbers of the public peace, engagaed in a profitless undertaking, and if they do not become the laughing stock of the country it will not be their fault.

Reporter—Whfit is the political outlook in Indiana? Mr. Voorhees—The three parties, Democrats, Republicans and Nationals, seem determined to contest every inch of ground. In my country the Nationals have a clear majority, and the Terre Haute Express, the leading organ of the Nationals tn the State, is exercising a wide influence. It claims that the Nationals will be successful at the polls in October.

Reporter—But what of the Detnocrati pary Mr. Voorhees—They are well organize ed and confident of victory, notwithstanding the pretensions «f the National?.

Reporter—How does the Kepublcan party stand. Mr. Voorhees—Since the loss of their great leader, Morton, ihey seem not to have an efficient organizer, and the only hope they have of success is through the inroads made npon the Democrat party bv the Nationals.

Reporter—Do you think they have any good reason to hope they will carry the Legislature.

Mr. Voorhees—I think not. Reporter—Are you a candidate for reelection.

Mr. Voorhees—lam. I have organized with that view, and will make a thorough canvass of the State.

Reporter —What is your opinion as to strenth of the National party in the United States.

Mr. Voorhees—I think it much stronger to-day than it has been any time since its organization, notwithstanding the financial problems seem to have been well-nigh settled by common consent of the two old parties.

Reporter—In what States is the National party most formidable? Mr. Vooihees—It's strongest hold is upon the Western States. In Ohio the movement exhibits great vitality, while in Michigan they are very hopeful of carrv ing the state.

Reporter—How i6 it in the South? Mr. Voorhees—Until recently the party has been but little known or thought oi there. Of late, however, meetings have been held in various Southern States and primary organizations adopted, which would indicate that the party intends to put on a bold front in 1880.

Reporter—Do you think the Repub licans will nominate Gen. Graut in 1S80?

Mr. Voorhees—Every thing points that way. Reporter—Who do you think will be the Democratic nominee?

Mr. Voorhees—Present indications point to Hon. A. G. Thuman, ot Ohio, as the coming man.
