EARNING HER LIVING.
Woman Dressed as a Man Working
Farm Laborer.

READING, Pa, Aug. PA strange story
comes from Steinsville about the remarkable
discovery of doctor in a farmhouse in Le-
high county, along the Blue mountains,
ust across the Berks line. Early in the
harvest season a delicate featured young
man appeared among the farmers
at that place. He was fine look
ing, smoothed faced, about twenty-five
years old and tolerably well dressed. He
gave the name of Mark Smith, and had the
appearance of having seen better days. He
worked at haymaking and harvesting. The
sun tanned his skin. he enjoyed better APP
petite and became stouter and healthier and
the mountain air seemed to agree with him.
Suddenly, at the close of hot August day,
he became sick and a physician was sum-
moned. He grew worse, and the physician
made an examination, but refused to say
what allied the person. To-day the fact was
made known that the person was not man,
but woman and that an infant had been
born in the attic in the farmhouse. The
neighbors provided the necessary clothing
for mother and child. Who the woman is
is not known. She will only say that she
left her home unknown to anyone; that she
dressed herself in disguise and cut her hair
off so that she could travel without danger
or ear of detection. She was sent TO the
county alnshouse.

MONUMENT TO GARFIELD.
The Splendid Procession and Ceremonies
Attending the Cornerstone Laying.

SAN Francisco, Aug. A-The corner
stone of the Garfield monument was laid to-
day with imposing ceremonies.
The procession was divided into four di-
visions, comprising United States troops,
National Guards of California Grand Army
of the Republic, Knights Templars and men,
bers of the California Masonic lodges Over
5000 were in line, the largest procession
ever witnessed on the Pacific coast.
1t extended over mile and a
half, occupying an hour and three
quarters in passing. The day being public
holiday, visitors from the interior towns
were in greater numbers than any day dur
ing the week. The streets along the line of
march were jammed for the distance of
mile. The scene presented in the park was a
magnificent one. On three sides the sur
rounding hills were crowded with a dense
mass of spectators; on the other side the
Pacific ocean, and the valley between occu-
pied by elitering uniforms. As the process
sion arrived the members drew
up in the form of circle
around the base of the monument.
A grand stand had been erected for the grand
Masonic officers, whose privilege it was to
perform the ceremony of laying the corner
stone. When all had fallen into place,
prayer was offered by the Grand Chaplain.
followed by Masonic ode, chanted by all
present. Hon. Horace Davis, ex-member of
Congress, in a short speech, invited the
Grand Master of California to lay the COR

martyr President of the United States. The

and nickle coinage of the present year, with

JUDGE BLACKS SIMPLICITY.
Afraid He Could Not Earn Living on
Leaving the Supreme Bench.

Afraid He Could Not Earn Living on
Leaving the Supreme Bench.
Correspondence Boston Herald.
Nothing so we'll illustrates the simple
mindedness OF the man as his concern, after
leaving the State Department, lest he should
not he able to earn livelihood for his fam
lily. He did not realize that the world
OF litigation appreciated his value.
He called on an old friend,
Mr. Titan J. Coffey. who had Just
come from Pennsylvania to take an
assistant attorney generalship under Mr..
Lincoln, and told him that he wanted his
advice He said: "Coffey, 1 don't know
what TO do. l am out of place and in debt.
As cabinet officer, l have been obliged to
spend more thar my salary for living
expenses, and I have become, as
you know embarrassed by Endorsements.
In view of these facts, it becomes
necessary for me to have an income at once,
and the judges of the Supreme Court have
offered ME the position OF reporter. L have
been on the bench or in public life since
1912, and l have no reason to expect that
any one will employ me as a lawyer.
The offer means bread at least. Shall
take the placer" Mr.. Coffey told
him that he did not think that he
ought to; that it was unbecoming a man who
had been Attorney general and Secretary of
State to be reporter for any court More
over, he argued that Judge Black was not
fitted for reporting, and that he was SO
constituted as to be unable to do
anything but original work. The judge
listened to his friends objections
with the humorous smile that often lighted
up his face, and when Mr. Coffee had fin
ished, said: "Well, there's but one thing
that can be said in favor of the place, Coffee;
it's short outside passage to Immortality"
The place of reporter was accepted but al
most Immediately after the fees began
to pour in The great Almedan
quicksilver mining cases were in lltiga-
ton. As Acknowledgement, Black had dis
tinguished himself in California land cases,
and he had gained the confidence of the Su-
preme Court by his bold and clear exposures
OF the perjuries, forgeries and the other
crimes that then marked almost
all transactions in California lands.
He and his son-in-law, Mr.. Skunk.
had informed himself thoroughly on every
phase of these great cases, and the litigants
knew the importance of retaining them.
Judge Black had his choice of sides, and re-
ceived enormous fees. In two branches of
the Almedan case he received $4,000 and
he never lost one of the causes. At the
end of the first term of the Supreme Court
after he left the cabinet Mr.. Coffey asked
him how much he had made. The Judge
had offered him a partnership at the be-
Cunning of the term, just after he had
been doubtful of his capacity for earning
bread, and Mr.. Cotfey told him that he
wanted to know how much he had lost.
We'll - said the Judge, i've been looking
over my affairs recently, and l find that my
fees for the term have been in the neighbor-
hood of 100000"
