MOUs of Benedict Arnold.
Reminiscences of Benedict Arnold have
been golag the rounds since the recent death
of Mrs. Ann Hinman Kellogg, of Fairfleid,
whose mother, it is said, ained a imisket.
at Arnold at tho time of the burning of
Now London, in 1781, and woldd have
killed him, except that the piece missed
fire. The proposition to build a monu
munt to Major Andre at Tarrytown has
also led to the recalling of incidents in
Arnold's career. There is one reniniscenec
of that character which has not been men
tioned. Soveral years ago a gentleman of
.Brooklyn, who has long been noted for his
love of rare books, manuscripts, pamphlets
and engravings, caime into the possebsion of
a document signed by Arnold and ia friend,
which he has carefully treasured %util the
prcsent day. The paper is a written pledge
that the man who should be maimed first
should receive from the other the gitt of a
silver tea-pot, of Cie value Vf Tl5. The
paper was dated before the Revolutionary
war, and was signed by a gentleman by
the name of Adams, as a witness. The
paper is now worn and stained with time.
but the writing is as black and legible as
tho day It was written. Not long ago a
man came into the otlico of the owner of
this precious document, and said, "I un.
derstand you are a gatherer of old things.
Here is something I waat to show you. 8.
M. L. Barlow wants it and has offered to
pay so much for it, but you can have it if
you will grive "a certain other sum," namn
ing it. "Well," was the reply, "let's see
it." The man began unfolding carefully
an ancient, time.stamned document, upon
which, as he was opening it, there appeared
the striking signature of Benedict Arnold.
The signature was recogrnized the moment.
It was seen, although it was upside down,
and the bargain was closed without a
mnonent's delay. The paper turned out to
be a bet between Arnold and Adams. The
witness of the doeltinont referred to above,
In reference to which of the two men would
probably be niarried first, and it ectaincd
a pledge that the one who was tirat mar
ried should receive a gift of silver plate
worth X15 from the other. The paper was
witnessed by the man who made the first
bet with Arnold. The two documents bore
the same date, ann had evidently been
written at the sanie time. They had been
separated for over a hundred years, and
had flually. come together again in the
ownership of the same gentlenni. The
discovery of this second doctiment is con
sidered one of the best "finds" of the day
among antiquarians of the city and the
fortunate owner of the two papers is greatly
envied.
011'1r1Y Cold D~ay."
Some time ago a poorly-drosed and
seedy-looking person about lifty years old
entered the post-oilee, at Detroit, and pro
ceeded to warm his hands at one of the
relisters. lle made no muimiries about. mail,
and after he had been loafing around for
two hours a policemain got his eye on him
and asked:
"Say, oid muan, have you any business
here "
"Well, no," was the reply.
"Any work to (o?"
"No. I kinder thought Ud lay off this
winter."
"Any friends here ?"
"No.'
"I think you ar a vagrant,'' (oitinueld
the oflceor, as he took anoiher look at hi1n.
"Mebbe I am," sighed the old ina m.
"And I think I'll taOke you down.''
'"Well, I'll go along."
Thie officer escorted himii to the station
house, registered lisa name, and oen pro.
ceede~d to senich luma pockets. Each one
panned out a "'wad"' of momney, mauking a
total of $l,t(100.
"'Whiy didn't you tell us you had this
nioney ?"' dlemanded the policemian.
'"Why didn't you ask mie'''
"DIidln'lI say I took you fur a v'agrant,
and vn d!e!'t dlr'v it either.''
'-Well, I didn't kniow an.. thing about
your city Ian,' riily vjplied th oild1(
man. I've got two married dautlghters,
and I came in to buy ('eh of 'em a $(00
piano for New~ Y'ear's, but, is it's ag'in any
of your laws I'll take the next traini for
home. I'm gittinig putrty old, and I don't,
want no fuss with any biody.''
"Well~j, you might have savedi yoursel f all
this trouble." said the nitlceer, ae he escorted
hinm to the street.
"D]on't mention it,'' was the ansawer. ''If
I took any trouble on1 your account it's all
right, and you needn't thatnk mem. i'm al
ways willing to oblige anybiody whp can
appreciate it. Tiurty cold day, isn1't it ?"

'I lu.o I into a Snow.-ir. .k.
Not lonr ago Mr. Smlth, attached to the
('aribou Mine, near D~enver, st arted from
Nederland for the mine in a stout cuitter,
drawni by a strong and1( spirited teamn of
horses. Mr. Sumith had for a companion
onie of list most, eticient assistanlts, an Eng
lian of the name of lehard Crow. Thle
mtorinig wals hoisterous, ai heaivy snow
storm having not in, accompanied by a
fierce w~ ud, but the two part ies were fvell
aictainted withi the roadl, andi~ as t he' dis
tance was only four miles, they atnticiatedl
no r aious trouble. As t hey appr~poached
Catriboua, however, the storm increased in
violiece to such an extent that they wer
not only nosqt heminbed anud bl1inded, but
tihe horses thaemsielves e'vincedi strong symip..
tonis of giviai out. Th'Ie travelers flinally
reached a point some hair-mile distant from
(aribotu, about ten (o'clock in time mornin11g.
Ilere, however, the elements se'emed to
hav'e tihrown off all restraint, antd the storm
was bliniding in its fury. Alr. Crow was
dariving, and while trying to ma~ke the temi
turn inl a certinm angle the horses sprang otT
the road, anad in anot01her inctanat the sleigh
and its occuplants, horses and1( all, were
dashed into ai now bnki somett fifteen or
twenty feet below. Mr. Smith is an old
C'oloradoan and has hadt an extendedl expe

Mr. Smith made ihree separate trips for the

essential to a further existencee. O.n reach

Smith was so nearly exhausted tat he fell
in upon01 the b~ottomi andi wais-senreely alel to
move. After oti'er desperate etforts, and
whien atlmost ready to yield to despair, the
main street of Carihou was reached and
assistance secured, It was unearly a full
