vs Q, tbs citv force. This was the first ap

tive of the city force. This was the first ap' pofntment of a detective in Chicago. h 1852 Pinkerton became impressed with the importance of establishing detective agency ! which would be independent of political in- Huence, and by whose efforts the criminal could be punished without fear or personal
 favor. He accordingly associated with him Mir. Edward L. Fucker, an attorney -at-iaw, and securing the patronage of several rail- road companies, then in their infancy, they started the 'Pinkerton Detective Agency" !" the first institution of it's kind in the United States. Rucker continued with him only about a year, when Pinkerton undertook the entire management. When the agency was
 first established they employed some four or five men, among the most prominent being
 George H. Bangs, afterward general superin- tendent, and who remained with MT. Pinker-
 ton until his death, which occurred last year, and Timothy Webster, who, while in his em- ploy, was taken as Union spy and executed at Richmond, Va, during the rebellion. From that small beginning the detective force under MT. Pinkertons orders increased steadily until 1t now numbers nearly three hundred men.
 In prosecuting his business Mir. Pinkerton made it his infexible rule never to operate for rewards or on payments contingent upon success, and would never allow any of his operatives to receive any reward or gratuity for his success He paid his employees ibe- rally, and worked for those who engaged him at certain fixed sum per diem, which was all that was ever received. Another notiosa- ble feature of the nature of his immense business, and one of the strictest rules of his institution, was that he never under any cir cumstances could be induced to operate in divorce case, or where family matters were in dispute.
 He leaves a widow and three children. William A., the eldest, has charge of the Chicago office and the western division, while Robert A. is the general superintend- ent and has immediate charge of the eastern offices. His daughter is the wife of William J. Chalmers, of the firm of Fraser & Chal~ mers, in Chicago.

lha Dead Detective,

The End of Allan Fiakerton's Strange
 and Romaatic Career.
 Allan Pinkerton, the greatest detective of the United States, who died in Chicago July 1st, was born in Mnirhes3 ssEeet, RugIen Loan. in the Gerbsla of the city of Glasgow, Scotland on the 25th day of August, 1919. His parents were in humble circumstances, his father, William Pinkerto2, Seing em- ployed as pol:ae sergeant by the municipal ity. When Allan was but small boy his father died from injuries received st the hands of g prisoner who1 Ae was arresting. and the family were thus deprived of their means of support.
 Before attaining his majority young Pink erton beeame iAbped with the sentiments of independence and reform which were advo- cated by those who put forth the Peoples Charter" in Great Britain, and hs soon be- came identified with the celebrated Chartist movement of the disafected people. The government resolved tq srush this reyoIu- tionary movement, ana several Of the lead- CTS were arrested and transported. Fearful of his own safety, Allan Piakerton resolved to leave the country and seek refuge in America. Accordingly in 1842 he was mar ried to Miss Jane Carfree, aAd an the follow  es, landing at 9uehec after 6 perilous voy- age, in which their vessel was wrecked, and the suffering passengers picked up by pass- ing weasel and carried to that port, From Quebec Pinkerton and his young wife made their way to Chicago by tRe lakes. The young couple, owing to their misfortunes, Msfe nearly destitute. but with stout heart he applied himself to securing employment. Meeting George Anderson, who was then en- gagged in the tobacco bEsiaesa Ae enlisted the services Of skat gentleman in his behalf, and soon succeeded in obtaining employment at his trede-thet os cooper.
 While employed afterward in his business as a cooper at Dundee, H., he had frequent occasion to visit some of the islands ;n Fox rlver to procure materials for his stock, and while on one of tAese he discovered tine ex- ;sssase of gang of eounterfeiters, who made the island their retreat and established their headquarters Having natural love for adventure, and being @ gtraAgsr to fear, he determined te thoroughly investigate the entire operations of thsse counterfeiters, which he eventually succeeded in doing, eff fectually breaking up the existence o2 the gang, and securing the a-yeys and conviction of John Cra;s, the leader and prime mover, s1gether with the most prominent and dag gdfous of his associates

PASSENGERS RIGHTS


 Two interesting decisions concerning the rights of travelersabg rail have just been rendered-one by Chief Justice Cooley Of the Supreme court of the State of Michigan, and the other by the Supreme court of Hi nois. In the case eoided by Judge Cooley . passenger was given by the station agent wrong ticket. The error was not discovered until he rendered the ticket to the conductor. He refused to pay the proper fare, was threatened with expulsion from the train by the conductor, and brought suit against the company for being wrongfuIly threatened. He recovered judgment. whereupon the company appealed, and the Supreme court reversed the judgment Says the court: '"The conductor was fully justified iu de- manding the proper fares. As between him and the passenger the ticket is the conclu- sive evidence of the extent of the passengers right to travel. The plaintiff, on finding that the ticket was not what he asked and paid for, should have paid his fare when demanded, and looked afterwards to the company for the return of the money and compensation for any trouble he might be put to in obtainiHg it.
 AA0 OoSIEAOn LII Gu0 4u4UOIs SupEoU0 COuEt set aside verdict of $15, GOO in favor of w. J. Cornell, of Omaha. Mr. Cornell bought 8 ticket to New York via the Wabash, Balti- more and Ohio and Pennsylvania, and was put of at Philadelphia because the Pennsyl- vania, on account of railroad WAT, had just issued orders refusing to receive passengers from the Baltimore and Ohio. The passengers l right to be carried WAS unquestioned, but the l court holds that he had no right to maintain l his position. The court says: ''It was his l duty when notified by the conductor that he 1 would not receive his ticket to pay his fare | under protest, or leave the train and hold the | company responsible for the expulsion with out compelling the conductor to resort te force; but he could not recover for the force | used by the conductor which, by his own | act, he induced the conductor to resort to in | order to put him if the train.''
 These decisions cannot be said to be very to the passenger side of the ques- tion. Fortunately, most conductors are sen sible, and while they keep their companies rules they do not behave unjustly to passen gers who have made mistakes or been led | into error by other railroad officials.

1 interesting discussion Is likely to be opened mp in scientific circles by this novel reason
 

l Not only have all the old original Indepeno.
 dents of Pennsylvania, including J. D. Me
 Kss, chairman of the Independent State com
 mittse, and Charles s. Wolfe, the Indspend
 ent candidate of two years ago, signed an ed ! dress setting forth their intention to support
 Blaine and Logan, but Chairman Garrett, of l the Committee of One Hundred, has follow ed suit. In addition to MT. Garrett, Joel J. Baily, chairman of the reform finance com- mittee; John Field, chairman of the cam psign committed; Thomas W. Barlow, mem- Der of the committee and counsel for the subcommittee on the prosecution of election frauds; George D. McCreary, of the com
 mittee on ward organizations; R. E. Has, 1 tings and many others, comprising prac- tieally the wheel horses of the organization in the past, have signed the same paper. An other name on the list is that of Samuel W. Pennypacker, one of the original Civil Ser vice reformers of Philadelphia.
 curious document has jszst been recorded in Worcester, Massachusetts. It is deed of one-half acre of land in Ashburnham, Massa- chusetts, with buildings. It states that 'T,
 Charles Hastings, of Ashburnham, gentleman, in consideration of the love and good will of the Lord Jesus and cent found on the prem-
 ises of His, the right full owner of all lands. as recorded in the first book of laws, the
 Bible, fiftieth psalm of King David, 9th, 10th,

 receipt whereof do hereby acknowledge, do
 hereby give, grant and convey unto the Lord
 Jesus, the Supreme Ruler of the Universe,
 8 portion of the late Colonel Joseph Jewett's
 land, etc. The instrument goes on to say
 that 'The said property is given in
 trust, reserving, however, the right
 to occupy and improve, make repairs,
 pay taxes, insurance policies, etc, in fact,
 retain it under my control as agent, and making all proper reservations for myself and others during my natural life, the two southwest chambers and one of the store rooms below to be kept for historical rooms for relics of various kinds, and not to be let, such as belonged to Susan W. Hastings and others; that nothing is to be sold, neither real nor personal property, forever, but kept in trust for 8 memorial by those who have full faith in the blessed Lord Jesus and to continue by His approbation forever te occupy according to His will" This in strument was duly s'signed, sealed and de livered" in the presence of thr'e witnesses, acknowledged before justice of the peace in Ashburnham, and accompanied by the legal fees for it's recording.
