A Short Study for Boys.

The life of Charles O'Conor, the
eminent lawyer. shows what dill
gence and perseverance will accom-
plish.
When eight years old he was an
office boy and a newspaper carrier.
His father published a weekly news
paper, and Charles, besides attending
in the office, delivered the journal to
subscribers in New York, Brooklyn
and Jersey City. He used skiff to
cross the rivers, and frequently would
be out all Saturday night serving his
route. 1t is said that he never missed
q subscriber.
When seventeen years old, he en-
tered a lawyers office as an errand
boy. He borrowed law books, took
them home and read them by the
light of q candle far into the night.
Several lawyers noticing the boys
industry, aided him in his studies.
When he was twenty-four years
old he was admitted to the bar, and
even then 1t was said that young
O'Conor's legal opinion was worth
more than that OF many other law
yers.
But success comes slowly to a
young lawyer. and 1t was not until
his thirtieth year that clients recog-
nized the legal learning and skill OF
young O'Conor. He was very poor,
but industry and ability were his
capital. He worked hard at the
smallest case. never sighting any
trust. and In time secured the repu-
tation of a man who would do his
best for those employing him. To
this conscientiousness and industry
he owed this success.

me-" The time did come, and now an
Englishman can scarcely say enough
Of the man who stands as the central
figure at the Berlin congress.
Northern rs lroad men, who have
recently travelled over some of the
leading Southern roads, are surprised
at the improvements that have been
made to their roadbeds In q few
months past Trains can now be run
safely over many Of the roads at
speed Of forty miles per hour. Two
years ago to run q train at twenty
miles per hour ON the Same roads
was considered reckless business.

executed in the early days of the set
tlement Of New York. He possesses
clock 3OO years old, which was for
merly owned by General Schuyler,
and had a place in the room occupied
by Burgoyne after the surrender at
Saratoga.
Some people believe they can think
faster on q railroad train than any
where else, the theory being that the
rapid motion quickens the action Of
the mind. Some influence Of that
kind may have affected . man and
woman who met for the first time
while travelling from sElmira into
Pennsylvania. They sat in the same
seat, fell into conversation, were ire
sistably attracted toward one another,
and at the end Of seven hourswere
married.

But gradually the tumult ceased, and
for q moment all became painfully
still. Then suddenly the sound Of
approaching feet was heard. They
stopped at the prison door, and a
cheer, wild and high, burst from a
thousand throats and echoed through
Trenton and far across the Delaware.
Ere the last echo died away the
prison was burst open, and Walter
Tyrrell was soon in the arms Of his
cousin William and surrounded by
the soldiers of Washington.
"Thank God you are safe and we'll,
Walter" exclaimed his cousin II
was afraid the Tories had murdered
you"
"Oh William, how can I thank your
began Walter.
But his cousin cut him short by ex-
claiming:
"Don't thank me. Thank Wash
ington and the brave fellows here
who crossed the frozen Delaware and
captured Trenton and / 200 of the en-
emy. / conducted Gen. Greene into
the very heart OF the town before a
Hessian picket discovered our pres
ence. for which ! have received the
thanks OF the Commander in Chief.
But come with me and witness the
traitor who betrayed YOU"
Taking him by the arm he led him
past the soldiers until they arrived at
the end Of the street, where a little
cottage stood, surrounded by tall
elms. Hero detachment Of military
was formed in hollow square, and
in the center, kneeling In the snow
with his elbows resting on drum
and his face covered with his hands,
was seen the renegade and traitor,
young Dalgell.
Times up, youngster," said the
officer in command, looking at his
watch.
do your duty, soldiers
One OF the men approached the
culprit, and pulling the hands from
his face ordered him to stand up.
Tremblingly he obeyed. His face
was ashy pale, and his eyes were pro-
truding in fear and terror. He gazed
around, but no look Of sympathy
could he discern In their faces. His
eyes at length rested on Walter, who
stood between the two soldiers, and
for a moment their gaze was riveted
on one another. At that instant the
halter was flung around his neck, and
q placard, on which was written the
single word Traitor" was pinned on
his breast. A shrek burst from the
wretch as he was dragged to the
nearest tree. The rope was thrown
across a limb, and soon the soul OF
the false friend and betrayer was In
eternity. AS the soldiers left the
place of execution a scream rose on
the air, and looking behind they be-
held the mother Of the renegade Sob
bing over the corpse.
Walter and William enlisted In
Green's brigade, served under Wash
ington until the surrender of York.

Colonel. Colonel Bradford died one
year after the battle OF Trenton, leav-

No morn has broken destitute OF sorrow,
No night but what brings some weary heart relief
No day but what finds US for the morrow:
There mHst be grief
No happy eyes, unstsined by fire OF weeping,
Can grasping death with icy fingers close;
No life but sees the gloom Of sadness creeping
Before repose.
Soft dew of tears on graves is ever falling:
With tears are little infants kiseed to fife:
In tears, strong men and women are recalling
A broken life!

rope, Asia and Africa put together.
and can therefore sustain more lives.
This Ia no harsh conclusion. I speak
from q scientific basis; and / will
show you what that basis Is. Our
continent Is narrow, and therefore the
winds OF the ocean water It will. The
mountain chains on the east side Of
the old world are high. From this It
results that the trade winds, laden
with the wetness OF the sea, are at
tracted to our land. The breadth OF
the old world and its high eastern
ranges causes the rainless interiors
Of Asia and Africa. Again, America
Is the land Of fertile plains; the old
world Of scorched plains. Our plains
run north and south, and 90 attract
and receive the rains. America is
high under the equator. the old world
Is wide; hence, with as q small sur
face Is exposed to the scorching sun.
The result Is that the productive soil
In the old world is 10000. 900 square
miles, and In the new. 100000.
Thus bursts upon rs all In the light
Of scientific truth, the fact that Amer
lea can sustain . greater population
than the old world: and II she can. It
Il unquestionable that some day she
will.

IMPORTANT DECISION. jury in
The case Of Jennings and others against

IMPORTANT DECISION. Tho jury in
the case Of Jennings and others against
Ferguson. Bennett and others, rendered
a verdict in favor of plaintiffs, in accor-
dance with charge of Judge Lewis.
1t seems that Bennett and Flatow were
engaged III the logging business in tie
County of Snohomish. and became
heavily indebted to sundry parties.
The firm made bill of sale TO E. Q.
Ferguson and a son Of Bennett, of all
the logs in the boom, by the terms Of
which the said Ferguson aud Bennett
the money lasted. and if it did not they
were TO 10 the losers. But nothing was
said about the pro rata of creditors
ether than Ferguson The logs were
taken possession OF, bat young Bennett
was not present when the agreement
was made W. A. Jennings aud other
creditors of the concern In this city
brought suit for an adjustment Of the
case, and the Court. in charging the
jury, held tina. as Bennett, Jr. WAS not
present when the sale was made, the
sale was fraudulent IS against the
other creditors. Had the concern been
in bankruptcy, the whole transfer
would have heen fraudulent as no pre-
ferment of creditors can be allowed.
But as the concern was not in bank
ruptcy, there was no evidence Of fraud
as regards the relation of Ferguson to
the sale. The jury therefore brought
IN verdict in behalf Of the plaintiffs
with costs. This was an important
case. affecting not merely the rights of
. loggers atoIe but transfers of all kinds
OF personal property.

than one-hslf will probably essay the

expire in 1850. hence the University
will ohviate the necessity Of Normsf
School for many years to come. We
may therefore be thankful that it is
now a Territorial institution in some.
thing more than name. If this free
scholarship system works as we'll as we
think it will, there will be no difficulty
IN getting an appropriation Of two
thousand dollars per annum for its sup
port from the Legislature Of 1879, with
provision Of sixty scholarships instead
OF forty five. This can be accomplished
by the passage Of bill allowing each
member Of the House TO appoint one.

thirty each member of the Council
two, making eighteen more the Gov
eTnor Eve. instead of three as at pres.
enti one by each Of the three judges:
two by the Superintendent of Public
obstruction, and one by the Chief Clerk
of each House of the Legislature
making sixty in ali. As soon as the
Territory ic admitted into the Union,
she will have grant of lands for the
establishment of an Agricultural Col
iege, which will probably be located in
the neighborhood of Dayton or Walls
Waila.' The manner Of organizing that
college will be left to the Territorial
Legislature; and it is quite probable
that "a system of free scholarships will
be inaugurated in connection with it.
II the author of the bill had it to draw
over again, he would make some
changes. One of these would be to
allow the Regents TO draw money " hem
ever o3e-half the scholars were in at
tendance. instead of two.thirds. as is
now the case; also to allow the xp-
pointers to select their pupils without
regard to residence, trusting that self
interest would lead them to give their
own counties the preference. Had this
been done in the present act. the East
ern members would all have filed their
appointments. and the institution
would have been five hundred dollars
better off. But everything must have
beginning. and we are glad that the
University is entering upon new era
IN its history US a public educational
institution.
