The first town struck by Senator
Farley when he reached California
some thirty years ago was Loe An
gelss. His conspagnon du vouage
was Judge Benjamin Hayes, SO
universally known in Southern
California. Both these young SOL
diers Of fortune were as impecuni-
Gus as the ordinary run of young
adventures who focked to the
Golden State. Fortunately for
him, Judge Hayes found Balti.

In Maryland, aud who was rum
ming a barber shop. Thus he was
at once provided with lodgings,
because, in the rear of the shop,

their employer, which enraged the
Colonel and number OF bis
Southern friends nightly. They

Hayes was the conspirator, and
they proposed vengeance. Mr.. Far.
ley had struck up an acquaintance
with some of them; and, having
learned of their purpose, said that
Hayes was all right-he could
vouch for him. This instantly
brought out the inquiry, "WhO
the hill are you?" He explained
who and what he was, but the par.
ty, which was still incredulOus,
broke for the barber shop, reused
the Judge from his slumbers and 1t
required all his eloquenco and as
severations that he was q thor

row. In proportion as Hayes es.
tablished his case, confidence In
Farley was restored and the in.
quiry was diverted to other quar-
ters. This was a rather peculiar
plight for Marylandsr and Vir.
ginian to find themselves In, and
In later days the Senator and the
Judge had many hearty laugh
over the Incident.
