He seemed as indifferent as ever, snd as he continued his work of piling up palls, remarked "Tbia is good exercise, yon eee," and smiled.

His arm is still stiff, and always will be. Cole has entirely recovered from his wounds, and even his left eye, the nerves of which were paralyzed by the passage of the ball which lodged beneath the right one, does not now trouble him. He finds his "sublime life" in revolving pails upon a sort of spindle, and spplying Uie tint coat of white paint by a rapid process.

Jim, who conversed but litUe yesterday, revolves a machine by which tbe pails are grained, while after the bands have been painted brown by another mechanical proi-eas, st which red-headed convict assists.

Willlsra Bennett, the young man who wa sirreeted on Monday last in Brooklyn for theft, was taken yesterday before Jnsdce Walsh. Mr. A. IX Owens and wife, instead of starting homeward, remained and appeared against Bennett. All ot tha peculiar and Interesting facta of the case are re then developed.

It appear that Mr. Owens and bia wife Kitty are known throughout tbe Btate of Ohio as "Jim risks and hie wife," and tbey are engaged In buying and eel ling scrap-iron, traveling' through the country with a wagon for that purpoae. In the month ot May, 1878, the business was in aMch a prosperous condition that tbey decided to employ a driver. The prisoner Bennett was en-gaeVd and remained in their employ until the 21st of August, when he abaconded, car rying with him a watch ami chain and $40 in monev. In an old coat, wbicb ha left behind him.

Mrs. Owens found the card of W. Martin, hatter. No. 693 fultnn street.

Brook lyn, aod aa aba had heard Bennett speak of Martin aa bia bosom friend. it waa decided that aha should write and ask for information concerning Bennett, An answer was aooo received from the prisoner himself. Mrs. Owens then wrote another letter, under the advice of bar buaband, tailing Bennett thev had been robbed by some farmer on th road, and that she waa very sorry he had left their company, aa she thought a frreat deal of him. Several letters were afterwards exchanged between them, Mrs.

Owens, with tbe approval of her husband, planning an elopement with Bennett, and telling him ahe disliked her husband, and that when they eloped, she would secure $1,000 of her husband' money. Mrs. Owena was to meet Bennett in Brooklyn. 8he arrived In that city on Monday evening last. In com pony with her husband.

Tbey wended their wsy to the Central Polios office, wnere they related their story to inspector Waddv the advice of that official, Mrs. Owen proceeded to Martin bat-store and inquired for Bennett, her husband and a detective remaining outside. Martin informed her thst Bennett was at the Park Theater, and he would escort her there. Bennett was soon found among tha audience, and their meet ing waa a pleasant one. They came out on the street and walked toward Kalton ferry together.

Tbe Twentieth Foot and the Foot are now under orders and probably tbeir way to Nova ocotla.

She seems to hare cared for the children kindly enough till the time of the reelmenfa removal to uueoec.

At that time, in 1890, they were well-crown vouthe of nineteen and seventeen respectively, and they had quite well denned idea of what paths in life were beat suited to their taste. They parted from each other near the border line between Canada and tba United Bute, one going to the South the other to the West The elder brother.

and. obtaining a homestead grant. settled down on liia land as an independent 1 farmer. No correspondence waa kept up between th brothers, and the elder, on hi death, eight years ago, did not know even whether his brother dward wa still living. William Kinnllly was never married, and, in default ot direct heirs, made a will lea ins- the bulk of hie property in trust for the establishment of an Orphans' Home in this ratv.

Twelve ornhan eirl were to be se lected by the Trustees oi this supposed institution fmm uuoni the desarvina Door of the city, oars being taken that they should be of more than average promise ana intelligence, and that their early training should have been received from honest parents. These girl were to receive a careful and thorough education, and. although the testator waa himself a devout Catholic, it wa expressly willed that the religion training should be non-sec tarisn. In addition to this charitable endowment, it waa further willed that any surplus accruing: ahould be devoted to the suDDort and education of six destitute boys. who might be taken from among the poor of the city, or from those stranger who come to it as tbe testator) bad come forty years before.

The remainder of hla property was willed away In various bequest, of which the largest, 20.000, was left to bis brother Edward, or to his heirs in case hia brother was not then living. The provision of the will were carefully carried out by the ex ecu tors, snd tbe legatees received their be- quesits, with the important exceptions of th Orphans Home and the missing brother re ward. The trust establishing: the Orphans' Home was adjudged void by a decision of the Htate Supreme Court, rendered in uecemoer, 1870, and the portion of the estate aet apart for the purpoae or ita eataoiishment reverxea to the heirs of William Ktnnilly. and, in case of the non-appearance ot claimants, to the State of New York. Tbe missing brother Edward was widely advertised for, and hia heir called upon to send in their names and addressee to the executors; but no response haa ever been made.

Advertisements have also been inserted in Iriah papers for the benefit of those akin to John and Mary Kin nilly, the parents of the testator; but, singularly enough, among all the folks of Tippe-rsry no Irish nephews or nieces or cousins of the family have aa yet sprung up. Here, then, is a large fortune going begging, and nobody who thinks himself or herself en titled to a slice. The Kinnilly clan should be speedily mustered if it is desired to prevent tbe property falling irrevocably into the unappreciative hands ot the people ot tne State of New York, in whose charge it re mains at present. faaaeeBl Testa (Virginia (N'ev.)

No respectable family would Dan who knew any thing about him, and the very mention of his name would cause a landlady to hold up her hands in virtuous horror.

Calling at the Dramatic Agency of Sim-monds Wall yesterday, I was surprised by the appearance of a young woman whose features had been before presented to me throueh the medium of a photograph. I chased this phantom likeness about in my mind, but tt eluded me with the skill wiui which aoma foreign substance in a cup of coffee will dodge a spoon. Aa she passed into a private room to interview one or tne firm, I seized the likeness. It stood on tiptoe and held aloft a phantom candle, playfully attempting to ignite a visionary firing night-shirt.

"Yes, that's she," exclaimed the surviving partner. "It is Bessie Turner!" 8 he who hung pictures at midnight with Til ton, and who waa carried to hia bed as the A rite carried the Princes of China in the "Arabian Nights." Bessie is of the medium height, with nice red hair, which indicates a chaste and contemplative mind, like that of he lady in Oomtu. She is rather intelligent-looking, and presents the appearance of compromise between a chambermaid and a Hebe of a dance-halL She was negotiating for an appearance on the dramatic stage, which ia like a punchbowl of art mixed up with strangely as sorted ingredients. Tbe manairer of the Halifax Theater waa found willing to take Bessie and aimed a contract with her: but the next day his courage, like that of Acree," ooted out at his fingers' -ends, and he implored the agency to destroy the fatal bond. Bessie was easily persuaded, and the manager, falling upon nis oenoea Knees, with nattering tongue and trembling limbs expressed his fervent gratitude to the gra cious and Invisible power which had be friended him.

Hurd is a young man and a young member. He bas only made three or four speeches, all on legal points, bnt the real worth of each of them has won him the ear of the House whenever be speak a Hurd ia a lawyer by birth, by education and by instinct. In politics he is a Democrat of the old school. In religion, a steadfast Catholic He is, first, a lawver. and.

after that, about equally devoted to his politics, bia religion and bia friends. Tbe striking feature la his great head. A prominent, nigh fore head ts made more prominent Dy a acarcity of hair about it. Beneath the forehead a air of small dark eyes always sparkle; be-ow that a drooping black mustache aimost conceala the firm, clean-cut mouth. He speaks rapidly, enunciates clearly, never re peats, avoids alt rhetorical embellishments.

and goes straight for the legal pith of th matter, ma tavonte gesture is a poenive downward stroke of the right arm. He al ways speaks as though he was sure of what he was saying, and makes every statement in tiie most Doeitive manner possible. Unfor tunately for Ohio he failed of re-election, but he is young, onty tnirty-nve, ana ne can not be kept out of politics. Poieoai fa Flavoring; Extraetau fFrom tbe Baltimore Gazette.
