Beniamin's Guardian.

Simeon North, the venerable ex-Presi-
dent OF Hamilton College, at Clinton, was
guardian of Judah p. Benjamin, of
Charleston, S. G., when he was sent to
Yale College in 1927 as "Peter Benja-
min."
The "fresh' Benjamin was always hard
up, like students in general, but he was
popular as a student, and stood at the
head of his classes. He disappeared
suddenly before he closed his Sopho.
more year, and his furniture, books, and
other assets fell into the hands of Guardi-
an North.
Among the books was a Hebrew psal-
ter, and a Berkleian prize-book inscribed
to President Day for excellence in schol-
arship, and they are now in DR.. North's
library at Clinton. The doctor wonders
ifthe former United States Senator from
Louisiana and Secretary of State for the
Southern Confederacy, and now the re-
tired counselor of London, has forgotten
his old tutor guardian. who closed his
eyes to many college pranks and finan-
cial shortcoming, as a reward for his bril-
liant scholarship and pleasing manner

Preservation of Railroad Ties.

Some interesting data are published
showing the relative value of different
methods of injecting railroad ties.
On the route from Hanover and Cologne
to Minden, for example, the pine ties in
jected with chloride of zinc required a
renewal of p per cent. after lapse of
twcnty-one years; beach ties injected
with creosote required renewal of 46
per cent. after twenty-five years wear;
oak ties injected with chloride of zinc re-
quired renewal to the extent of about Il
per cent. after seventeen years; while the
same kind Of ties not injected, necessi-
tated fully 40 per cent. of renewals. The
conditions in all these cases were very
favorable for reliable tests, and the road
bed was good, permitting of easy desic-
cation; the unrenewed ties showed, on
cutting, that they were in condition of
perfect health. On another road, where
the oak ties were not injected, as .arge
proportion as 74.4S per cent had to be
renewed after twelve years; the same de-
scription of ties injected with chleride of
zinc required only 3.2S per cent. renewals
after seven years, while similar ties in
jectel with creosote involved, after six
years, but 900 per cent.

One ricture OF Life In City.
Cleveland Leader.

Captain Kerr noticed young and
pretty girl walking to and fro on the
north side of viaduct apparently in deep
thought
81 thought that perhaps she was wait
ing for her lover" said Kerr, afterward,
"and paid little attention to her. About
an hour after first noticed her." Kerr
continued, 81 was sweeping off the draw.
There were very few people on the
bridge at the time. Suddenly, as if by
inspiration, turned around and the
sight that met my gaze froze the blood
in my veins. There was that girl stand
ing on the narrow projecting edge out
side the railing on the north side of the
draw-bridge, eighty feet above the river.
She was holding on the railing with one
hand looking down into the river below,
preparing for leap to death. sprang
forward and seized her. She struggled
vigorously to free herself from my grasp.
| clutched her with an almost death-like
grip and thus managed to save her"

An Indian Wins,

The daughter of an Indian has just re-
covered about $4,000 from the Jackson
Iron Company. A number of explorers
were looking for iron about thirty-fve or
forty years ago near where Negaunee now
now stands, and an old Indian, Margi
Geezic by name, took them to place
where he had found some very fine ore
They found that the deposite was large
and co. partnership to work the mine
thus discovered was formed.
In consideration of the service rem
dered them by the Indian it was agreed
that he should receive l2-3l00 of the
profits, and written agreement to that
effect was given him. AT last he died
and the suit which has just been decided
was brought for his daughter to recover
the money claimed to be due her father
from the company.-Ishpeming Iron

WASHINGTON, August iS.-In view of the
rscsnt financial disturbances growing out
nj the furry on Wall street, some interest
is felt Is to whether the Comptroller Of the
Currency will soon call for statement of
ibe financial condition of the National
banks OF the country. He is authorized
updsr tSe Law to issue FIVE calls during the
wear. The custom has been to. issue a call
every quarter and an extra call at any in
tervsl whenever the condition Of the banks
seems to warrant il. Comptroller Knox is
out Of town at present, and it is not
likely that any call will be made during
his sbsence. Certain New York parties
hsve been very anxious to obtain intorma-
tion Is to the likelihood of such q call be-
irg made soon. Inquiry was made to the
Comptroller's Office to-day and it can be
suihoritatively stated that no call will be
made before the first of October. This
call will not BRING out 8 statement as to
the collatersls on which the banks loaned
money or the amounts loaned by them
during the recent depression in Wall
street, but it is said at the Comp
trollers office that thers need be no appre-
tension that a csll at this time would de.
velop anything adverse to the banks. The
statements would only exhibit the relative
condition of the banks in the matter of
lUsns and discounts, as related to their re-
sources. Special examinations are ordered
from time to time to determine the exact
status of individual banks, but this will
ro' be d,be except in rare cases, and the
be ing at the Comptroller's office is that
he National banks of the country are gen.
erslly in excellent condition.

WASHINGTON, August 1S.-It leaked out
to-day that certain clerk in the Treasury
Department assisted in procuring . worthy
Young lady employment in the govern
ment printing Office, and subsequently
made insulting proposals to her. Failing
in his designs, he, in a spirit of revenge,
concoc,ed false reports against her,
and while she was enjoying va
cation, succeeded in securing her dis
charge. The facts coming to the no
tice of Public Printer Rounds, he immedi-
ately re,appointed the young lady, and
apologized for having decided against her
in an exparts" trial, aud, to prove that he
is in earnest, he has written to the Secre-
tsry If the Treasury, stating the facts, and
asking that the clerk be discharged. The
clerk made fruitless appeals to the lady not
to expose him, but she has left the matter
entirely with her friends, and declines to
listen to him. 1t is expected that IS soon

New YoRE, August 1s.-1he quiet vii
lsge of Carmel is Just now in fernentr
owing to the supposed secret marriage OF
retired New York merchant md young
lady of the same place. Mr.. John 8. Mar
shall, who war for many years engaged In
the dry. goods trade in this city, retired
from business and settled at Carmel. He
was widoHer and had family Of three
grown children. They spent most Of their
time in quiet little villa at Carmel and
seldom kept much company. Eight months
ego the family made the acquaintance of
Miss Ella springstei,, the daughter Of .
neighboring farmer.
She Is a.Bsende.
and Is said to have personal attractions.
Mr.. Marshall became acquainted with her,
and when she visited his house it was no.
ticed that he always was at home. The
family did not pay any special regard to
the attention paid by the father, as he was
considerably older than the young lady,
OF late, however, il was noticed that Mr.
Marshall and the young lady were 70 be
found very often IN each others company.
A proposal of marriage was made by the
merchant, but the suit was strenuously OPP
posed by bis family and also by the young
woman's parents, the particular objection
being the disparity OF their ages.
In place of the former friendship be-
tween Miss sprinestein and the two daugh-
ters coldness grew up between them aud
it was plainly intimated that her company
CouId be Dispensed with.
This had no effect, however, for Miss
Springstein was still frequent visitor aud
could always be found in the company Of
Mr. Marshall.
On Sunday Miss Springstein paid long
visit to Mr.. Marshall and the following
morning he was up bright and early, dress.
ed in his best suit of broadcloth. He said
that he was coming to the city and might
not return the same evening. Except a
small valse and linen duster, he had no
luggage and his family paid but little at
tention to his leaving, as he had frequently
left hcme in the same manner.
He did not return, however, on Tuesday
and has not done 80 up 10 the present time.
The visits of Miss Sprlngstein also ceased
after Sunday.
The Marshall family became suspicious
and made inquiries at the home OF the
young lady, VIXEN they found that
She Also Was Missing.
Every effort was at once made to dis.
cover the whereabouts OF the fugitives. II
was found that the old gentleman, in com
papy with Miss Springstein. early in the
afternoon OF Monday, took the train from
Brewster station for the city. This was the
only trace of the missing pair. 1t IS now
believed that Miss SpriDgslein has become
Mrs. Marshall, and that after enjoying a
brief honeymoon they will return to their
comfortable home in spite OF all proiesta-
tions. The young lady is a little over q
years old, and therefore no steps can he
taken by her parents if marriage has taken
place.

They will render, no doubt, good account
by bringing into camp tonight the results

given them, are in excellent health and
