Fourteen Lee Mistakes.

Somebody has condensed the mis-
takes of life and arrived ut the con-
clusion that there are fourteen of
them, Most people would say If
they told the truth, that there was
no limit to the mistakes Of lifc; that
they We're like the drops in the
ocean or the sand of the shore In
number, but it is well to be accurate.
Here, then, are fourteen mistakes. -
:" II is n great mistake to set up our
own standard of right and wrong
and judge people accordingly; to
measure the enjoyment of others by
our own; to expect uniformity OF
opinion in this world; to look for
Judgment and experience in youth;
to endeavour to mould all DISPOSE
tions alike; not to yield to immnteri-
al trillcs; to look for perfection in
our own actions; to worry ourselves
and others over what cannot be re-
medied; not To alleviate ull that
needs alienation rs far rs lies IN
our power; not to make allowances
for the iniirmities of others to con-
slider everything impossible that we
cannot perform to believe only
what our finite minds can grasp; to
expect to he able to understand
everything. The greatest of mis-
takes is to live only for time, when
any moment may launch us into
eternity"

The Star-ROute Failures.
Washington Dispatch.

The star-route trial for the second
time has resulted In fiat failure. The
jury have returned verdict of not
guilty for ali the defendants. It has
been running for seven months; the
testimony and proceedings cover 5000
octave pages. For many weeks the
lawyers for the prosecution and the de-
Tense have hammered at the jury. One
lawyer, Mr.. Merrick, spoke for nine
days. The daily sessions of the court
began at II, and lasted till 4, with half
hour recess from L till 1:30, thus con
Stunning Il hours. Five men were in
diCted for conspiracy to defraud the
governments. w. and J. w. Dorsey,
John r. Miner, Harvey M Vaile and
j. Brady. The crime consisted in a
corrupt conspiracy on the part of Brady
the second assistant post-master-gener-
al, and these men to increase their pay
as mail contractors from something
like $4,000 to over 100000 or ten
times as much. Brady increased the
pay on certain stage routes from $41, ;
go, when the receipts from the mail
carried over these routes were less than
$57 ,000 and leaving out the railroad
stations, less than $1,000. What the
individual profits from these enormous
frauds were, will never be known, but
Mr.. Ker found that Stephen w. Dor
sey's contracts for one year amounted
to 100000 over and above the sub-con-
tracts by which the mail service was
actually done.
Like the impeachment of Warren
Hastings, which ran along for seven
years and ended IN acQuittal, the star
route trial has been terribly overdone.
Justice has been literally lawed to death.
In the first place, Brady ought to have
been impeached during the Hayes ad-
ministration. Impeachment is difficult,
especially where the law gives authori-
ty to the public officer to act upon his
discretion; but impeachment would
have been easy compared with the al
tempt to convict Of conspiracy before q
jury of common men at Washington,
d. @. Conspiracy is of all crimes the
most difficult to establish. Mere reli-
ance of corrupt men On q common pur-
pose and motive of unscrupulous gain
is not conspiracy, although for all in
tents and purposes it serves the end of
conspiracy. We do not know that the
indictment could have been more wise
" framed, but it certainly set up the
hardest thing possible to prove.
The result is disgraceful to the ad-
Of justice. That such a
case should be submitted
to men Of the capacity OF the average
jury is confession that all the elabo-
ration Of evidence and the fne-spun
of endless lawyers is humbug
and goes for naught but to sustain an
inflated profession. Had Mr. Bliss,
Mr.. Ker and Mr.. Merrick omitted all
their long pleas but their closing sum-
mings up, they might have made some
upon jury, but their tedi-
Gus examination OF the evidence was
simply wasted.

Anecdotes Of Jefferson.
Harper's Magazine.

My recollection of Mr.. Jefferson, says
an old gentleman of Virginia, is vivid,
as knew him well, and often visited
at Monticello. He was the handsomest
man I ever saw, as straight as an ar
row, very dignifed and courteous in
his manners to all. A superb rider, ke
exercised himself on horseback till the
last year of his life. The University
of Virginia was his pet scheme, and he
was very proud OF it as being his own
achievement. At the first session [ en-
tered as student, and Mr. Jefferson
was always pleased to have Us students
at his table. Upon these occasions we
were generally seated around the table
when Mr.. Jefferson would enter and
walk straight to an adjoining side table
specially prepared for him, and upon
which were placed two lighted candles
and small vial by his plate. He would
then say: "My daughter, perceive
there are several young gentlemen at

MRS. VANDERBILT'S DRAG.
A Feminine Member of the ConlmOdOre's
Family to Introduce the CurricIe.
Washihoton Star.

Mrs. William K. Vanderbilt, will
drive cuIricle at Newport this year.
1t is a sort of 8 two-wheel chaise, with
pole and q bar across the horse. 1t
is to be built by an American firm, but
will be closely modelled after the old
English style, with two wheels and s.
seat for the groom behind. 1t is as
dangerous vehicle to drive as dog
cart or Standhope gig. Mrs. Wander
bilt is capital whip. In
fact, there are few better horse
women than she in New York.
She will probably be the first of her
sex TO drive curricle in America. L
is said the last man who drove one of
these vehicles in London was the old
Marquis of Anglesey, of Waterloo fame.
He did not allow his grooms to sit be
side him, but had two Of them follow
ing on horseback. Though Mrs. Van
derbilt's vehicle is to be made in Amer
ica, she imports all of her harness from
England. She has great liking fo1
snowy co uipages, by the way.
Last year she drove to the races in s
Victoria, with four horses and postill
ions. It was the first time that such 8
turnout had been seen N New York
though 1t is common enough in Eng
land. Postiilions have since been en-
ployed by Mrs. Augustus Belmont anC
Mr.. J. L. Anthony. The carriages at
tract great attention here. They are
certainly foreiga to the spirit Of s. re
publican country.

Hill Gave No Bonds.
Washington Telegram.

Since the Murch investigation began
the Office Of supervising architect of
the treasury has been looked into with
critical eyes. 4 very startling fact has
been discovered, namely, that the su-
pervlslng architect gives no bond, and
is only responsible, and that in almost
q nominal sense, to the secretary OF
the treasury. The bureau is compare
lively small. The whole force, includ-
ing the chief, numbers about 18 per
sons. Millions of dollars are yearly
disbursed by the chief at his discretion.
In five years his disbursements were
upward of $40000,000. 1t is evidently
more important for him to be an expe-
ricnced accountant than an expert
enced architect, and most important
and lucrative, says one of the craft, for
him to be q shreWd and not an over
scrupulous politician. Owing to these
defects IN the system, supervising arch
itects have had a full autocratic sway
over public buildings. 1t is alleged the
entire Office seems little more than q
political machine by which millions
intended for art are squandereo for
political purposes, or find their way
into the pockets of favorite contractors.
The pending investigation will bring
to light these and other facts.
It is hard to see how an official who is
practically only responsible to himself
can be reached, even if disclosures of a
most damaging character are made.
Nevertheless 6, full exposure is needed
to effect a much-wanted reform in this
important bureau.

to distinguish who they are, so you
must tell me their names. Whereup-
on his daughter would lead him up to
each young gentleman, who would in
turn rise, when Mr.. Jefferson would
shake hands and pass pleasant word
with him. AT the close of his repast,
as his own hand was too trembling, his
daughter would pour from s. little vial
into tumbler q few drops of medicine
to produce slHmber In case he should
be wakeful, and then he would take up
the tumbler and candle, make state-
ly bow to the assemblage, and retire to
his bedroom. He always had company
at his house, and observed the French
hours for meals.
a relative OF Mr.. Jefferson, though
very desirous of visiting him, was yet
disinclinei to trust his rusticity and
illiterateness on his great kinsman.
Upon one occasion, however, he was
prevailed upon TO attend s, social
gathering at Monticello, when, upon
being ushered into the salon, he was
duly presented by Mr.. Jefferson 10 the
company. During this ceremony the
awkward countrymsn slipped up sew
eral times on the well-waxed floor, and
then, seating himself. throughly i'll at
ease, was perfectly silent. After chat
ting with some Of his guests, Mr.. Jeffer-
son took 8 seat beside his relative and
made an unusual effort to be agree
able, talking on all manner of topics,
| but without even receiving answers to
his queries or makcing the slightest
impression upon the visitor, who re-
manned as dumb as an oyster. In des-
pair OF drawing him out, Mr.. Jefferson
| happened to ask him if he liked "black-
Jack" fishing. The countryman's eyes
snapped, and his mouth poured forth
a garrulous bodges IN regard to bis
favorite sport, to all which Mr.. Jeffer-
son, amused, as were the others present,
listened attentively. When at last the
cOuntryman made an end. Mr.. JefeI-
son opened up elCquently on the same
subject, displaying an intimate knowl-
edge of black Jack, f" so far surprising
that Of his relative that the latter was

Signer stopped talking the countryman
rushed for his hat and bolted from the

The Mule as a Trainer.

In the mining region of Pennsylvania
where disputes of almost all kinds are
settled by fisticuffs, the mule plays an
important part in the miners training
for battle. He approaches the mule,
which seems to be sleeping, and gives
him few taps on the rump with the
bare knuckles as q reminder that he is
wanted to take part in q sparring match.
The mule responds, his blows are par
ried, and the sturdy miner gets in one
or two from the shoulder which knocks
the animal out of time, the latter retir-
ing with backed ears and looking deeply
Inundated. A number of gentlemen in
Philadelphia, prominently identified with
the anthracite coal trade, who have been
practical miners, relate this as an actual
fact, and state further that a miner has
so little respect for mule that every
time he has row with his wife and she
has the best of him he gets even by lick
ing mule, as that is about the nearest
thing to mad woman that he can get
at.-Cbicdg0 Herald.
