Jim keene.

James keene is the intimate friend Of
Sam Ward, who took care Of his health,
made him exercise, regulated his diet,
and has brought him out Of a very bad
condition Of health and strength to be
a hearty man. 1 said to Mr.. Ward
"Has Keene made a large amount Of
money since he cane TO New York;
"keene," answered Ward, "is the
most successful living nan at the age Of
40. He is worth so, 900, 900. He could
wind up his affairs within a week To
two weeks and have 5000, 900 in the
best kind Of securities and interest-pay-
ing bonds. His other property, which
he has no desire To sell, will bring him
up tn the figure Of $1,000 900"
"Is be a native Of England"
"Yes, he was born there. He wen.
when quite a young man 10 Illinois and
then to California. He has washed
many a ton of mud with the pan in his
hand and picked the gold out. Keene
was a plain, labOrious miner but always
had the spark of honor, courage and
genius in him. He made wealth and
reputation on that coast selling the
much exploited bonanza stocks short.
He came East with no decided intention
of specializing but was induced to take
a look at New York, and to him we are
in great part indebted TO the buoyant
condition Of the stock market and much
Of the restoration of confidence"
Show has he succeeded in making so
much money and yet keeping so much
popularity in the street?h
"Because he has always valued his
good name and has never been a mere
scalper or cOnspirator against the
pockets of individuals. He u Will

Avenue Hotel one night"
"How was that?"
"Eanderbilt was not above tricks and
deceit, and he came to Keene with some
talk about Lake Shore stock and gave
him false points. Keene is a man of
honor, and apart from Mr.. Vanderbilt's
great wealth could not understand that
kind of treatment. A few such les
sons would be of great assistance to
build up Mr.. Vanderbilt's character.
He has conducted himself tolerably well

West Virginia, last fall when he got a
telegraphic dispatch informing him that
Michigan Central was selling at some

somewhere about forty. He said to me:
Mr.. Ward, I have got 1900 shares of

have belonged I'd a different and supe-

Indian Depredations,

The fair reader shudders when she
thinks of the settlers wife watching,
from the door of her wooden hut, the
retreating form of her husband going
out to his daily labor-going out per-
haps to return not again, for before
nightfall a savage hand may have laid
him low among the prairie grasses.
Or it may be a child, q bright-eyed
daughter, is snatched away in an I'M
guarded moment, to grace the next
war dance When we read the heart
rending details of these savage depre-
dations, we are apt to blame the gov
eminent for not taking more strict
precautions to insure the settlers pro.
lection. But we daily read of the de-
predations of that arch fiend, consupp-
ton. with scarcely thought of the
terrible inroads it is making in human
life. Tens of thousands of homes are
annually desolated by consumption to
one by Indian outrage. Like the In
dian, consumption oftenest comes
stealthily, and no danger is apprehen-
ded until the victim suddenly finds
himself hopelessly ensnared, and
deaths fatal arrow ends the scene. Dr
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery, 8
| powerful Alternative, or blood purifier
and tonic, has restored thousands OF
consumptives who had tried every
other remedy recommended to them
without obtaining any relief, and are
willing to testify to its remedial
| powers
