A man signing his name Randolph Iligginson, of Boston," who admits that he has been committing burglaries in Atchison of late, sends the following card of thanks to this office, says the Atchison Globe: "Although my receipts in Atchison have been comparatively small, I would not have the citizens think me ungrateful, aud hereby extend thanks "for what little I take away from the town. My Stay in your city has been pleasant, and I Vtx'ti treated with such courtesy by the beat people that 1 may return at another time. I have enjoyed very much the visits to some of your homes, and my only regret is that, I did not have my wife along to enjoy the fun.

I regret to notice that Jiui Waggencr values the wateh I took from his residence at lifty dollars. If hi: realty paid this amount for the watch ho was robbed and ought to crack down on the dealer who sold it to him. I tried to pawn the watch in St. Soa, but was only offered two dollars and seventy- five cents for it. "It is a shame for a good citizen to be robbed in this manner.

I was talking to a policeman a few days ago who informed mo that the ladies of Atchison do not bring flowers and pie and cake to prisoners in the county jail. Accordingly I gave the officers no opportunity to arrest and keep me in tho county jail for a time on suspicion. I don't know whether I ought to give away professional secrets or not, but will say that the gleaming dagger some claim to have seen me brandishing was really an icicle. During the twenty years I have been in the business I have never injured a human being. I have too much respect for the I teachings of the Bible to do such a thing.

oO New and 52 Broad St. XEW YORK. A Curious Inntlnct of the Animal That the The unique position once held by auchenia g-lama in South America lends peculiar interest to the small (Troupof animals to which it belongs Before the Spanish conquest of Peru the llama ivas the only hoofed animal domesticated in the country, and by consequence filled a very important place in Peruvian Kot only was it then, as now, a beast of burden, but it supplied the place of oxen and sheep in respect to meat and wool: in fact, a more "general utility" animal is unknown to man. Xalurally. since the introduction of horses, donkeys and mules the llama has been much less used.

Science has resolved the group into four species, all of which are very ruuch alike. These are the llama, alpaca, lumnaco and the vicuna, of which only the first two are known in the domestic state, The earlier naturalists, guided by the eye, regarded the llama as a near relative of the sheep. Cuvior was the first to that it pertained more nearly to the camels, and-altimatcly he relocated it to the sub its own as auchertia. The general public distinguish the llama in captivity the "animal that spits." AH four species have liabitof saliva iuto or at. the face of any human to whose presence they object, and we can quite imagine that for riding 1 purposes a mount of such objectionable manners could not Ion? hold its place against, a well-behaved donkey.

The himiaeo has cue curious instinct which naturalists are perforce obliged to put. aside as useless. IVe quote Hudson's remarks on the huanaco's dyinjj- place in that iojrbook "The Naturalist in La Plata." It is well known that the southern extremity of Patagonia the huan- acos have a place, a spot to which nil individuals inhabiting the surronudinp: plains repair at tho approach of death to deposit, their boues. Darwin and Fitxroy first recorded this strange instinct in their personal narratives, and their observations have since been fully confirmed by others. The best known of these dyinjr or burial places are on the banks of the Santa Cruz and Oallcyos rivers, where the river valleys are covered with dense primeval thickets of bushes and trees of stunted'rp-owth.

There theft-round is covered with the bones of countless dead generations. "The animals," says Darwin, "in roost cases must have crawled before dying- beneath and among 1 the A stranpre instinct in a creature so pre-eminently social in its habits; a dweller all its life long- on tlie open, barren plateaus and mountain sides' What a subject for a painter! The gray wilderness of dwarf thorn trees, acred and grotesque and scanty leaved, nourished for thousand years on the bones that whiten the stony ground at their roots; the interior lit faintly with the rays of the departing sun, chill and 'gray and silent and liuanacos' Golffotha. In the long 1 centuries, stretching 1 back into a dim, immeasurable pa.st, so many of this race have journeyed hither from the mountain aud plain to sulTer the sharp pang 1 of death, that, to the imagination, of it all seems to have passed into that hushed and mournful nature. And now one more, the last pilgrim, has come, all his little strength spent in his struggle to penetrate the close Select; looking- old and gaunt and ghostly iu the twilight; with long, rajrged hair; staring into tlie gloom out of death-dimmed sunken eyes. To this account of the animal's dying place and instinct Darwin adds: "I do not at, all understand the reason of this, but I may observe that tlie wounded huanacos at the Santa- Cruz invariably walk toward the river." Jt would no doubt be rash to affirm of ftny instinct that it is absolutely unique, but, putting aside some doubtful reports about a custom of the Asiatic elephant, which may have originated in the account of Sinbad the sailor's discovery of an elephant's burial place, we have no knowledge of an instinct similar to that of the liuanaco in any other animal.

So far as we know, it stands alone and apart, with nothing in the actions of other species leading 1 up or suggesting any family likeness to it. But what, chiefly attracts the mind to it is its strangeness. It looks, in fact, less like an instinct of one of the inferior creatures than the superstitious observance of human beings, who have knowledge of dear.h and believe in a I continued existence after dissolution; of a tribe that in past times had conceived the idea that the liberated spirit is only able to find its way to its future abode by starting at death from the ancient dying place of the tribe or family and thence moving westward or skyward or underground, over the well-worn immemorial track invisible to material arid Water.
