The Cheyenne daily leader. [volume] (Cheyenne, Wyo.) 1870-1884, 1879-10-22

The professional juryman is a some
what familiar character in large cities
but q quiet farming village in. New
England is the last place where he
would be looked for. That he exists,
and even thrives, however, amid such
unfavorable surroundings, has Just
been shown in a Connecticut court.
One Of the men summoned to obtain
a jury in the Hayden trial at New
Haven was a Woodbridge barber, who
frankly admitted that he made it a rule
never to form any opinion about any.
thing, so that he might always be quail.
ihed to sit as a juror on any question.
The shrewd Yankee said that be had
found this a paying policy, for he had
been summoned as a juror a great
many times in the forty-three years
since his name first went on the list.
and he had lever been challenged but
twice. But unfortunately for him the
counsel for the defence in the pre- ent
trial didn't seem TO like that kind of a
juror and he lost his expected job

The Cheyenne daily leader. [volume] (Cheyenne, Wyo.) 1870-1884, 1879-10-22

A gentleman of undoubted v~eracity
vouches for the trutho of the following re-
markahle incident: A few days since a
mar was hunting in the woodsnear For
est City, Sierra county. when he came
across a deep mining shaft sunk by him
self some time previously. Desiring to
learn If any water had accumulated in
1t, he dropped a stone to the bottom.
As it struck, an unearthly and mysteri-
Gus sound rang out upon the air. At
first he wa at a loss to account for the
source, and grasped up his gun hurridly,
expecting to be confronted by some beast
coming from the forest close by. In a
moment the strange noise wa repeated,
and he discovered that it proceeded from
the shaft, and was a dogs yelp. He
went to town, told what he had heard,
and o. learned that a family living
there had a pet dog. The owner went
back withthe discoverer and several
others. They took with them rope
with a slip moose at the end. The rope
was lowered into the shaft. The dog
stuck his head through the moose and
was brought to thesurface alive. 1t had
been gone from for six weeks and three
days. The general opinion in the neigh
borhood is that it had been in the shaft
all that time and had subsisted on liz
yards and other animal matter that can
be found about the woodwork of such
places. Sufficient water dripped into
the bottom Of the shaft to slake its
thirst. The animal was a mere skeleton
when found, but is now, by good care,
getting as plump and lively as ever.
The family to whom it belonged shed

Of their prodigal pet.-Nepada Tran

~CREDITABLE TO CORNELL.

The attempts of malicious persons to
show that Mr.. A. B. Cornell has never
exhibited unusual sagacity or remark
BILE strength Of character in his business
career are proving disastrous. Instead
of making 1t appear that he was lifted
to fortune by his father, it is coming to
be understood that the property of Ezra
Cornell went to the Cornell university,
and not to his children. The hard
times which succeeded the panic Of '73
affected, the purse of the founder of
that great university, and probable the
requests he had designed to make for
the benefit OF his family were beyond
his power at the time he died. At
least Mr.. A. B. Cornell has inherited no
princely income from the estate of bis
father. The fortune he owns has been
gained by his ow exertions.
There is a fact in his history that has
found its way into print which illus
trates the strength of character. The
Mes Silicon steel company, in which he
was largely interested, erected a rolling
mill at Sandusky, on Lake Erie, in 1875
and laid the foundation for another at
Chicago. The panic of the following
year fell with crushing weight upon the
enterprise, as it did upon . multitude
Of others, and the present republican
candidate for governor of the Empire
State found himself hardened with La
bilities amounting to about s165, 900.
He was urged by friends to take ad.
vantage of the bankrupt act. but this
he scorned to do. He resolutely un.
dertook to retrieve his fortunes, and
s14S, 958 of the judgments against him
have already been satisfied. Mr.. Cor.
nell had backbone enough and courage
enough, to shoulder the burden which
hasty creditors rolled upon him by put
ting their claims into the form Of judg.
ments. The men who vote for him al
the approaching election will have the
satisfaction of knowing that they are
supporting a man whose claims to con.
sideration for integrity, as well as for
sagacity cannot be denied. YorA
