JAY GOULD RECALLS OLD TIMES
How He Mended His Boots and Made
Noon- Marks for Farmers.

Noon MARKS LOT FARMERS
Jay Gould carefully read the published
dispatch from Port Jervis, says the Iri-
bune, in which it was asserted that he
still owed a cobbler at Alligerville, in
Ulster county, for necessary repairs to
his shoes when he was engaged in survey
ing the county over a quarter ola century
ago. His eyes tWinkled with fun when he
looked up from the newspaper clipping
which reporter had handed him.
Ridiculous" he remarked. "Why, L
used to mend my own shoes. In those
days every farmers son was taught to
make and cObble his own boots.
shouldn't have thought of spending money
on something l could do myself l was
only 10 years old then. A man by the
name of Snyder advertised for an engi-
neer to survey the county for a map.
remember we'll when l went to work for
him. He gave me no money, but only a
small book, in which l was to put down
the names of persons with whom l
boarded and the amounts due them. He
told me to get trusted tor every
thing. The first place l slept at
after began work had trou-
Bile. told the farmer after l
had eaten my breakfast what Snyder had
told me to do, and l took out my book to
make the entry. The farmer squared off
at me once, and from him, and after
ward many others, 1 learned that Snyder
was in very bad repute in financial
way. 1t put me on my guard, however,
and when my work was done l refused to
give it up before was paid. Snyder had
no money, and the result was that another
young man, Mr.. Tillson, and l completed
the survey, and the map was made in the
W VUfn I n nd
got $1,000, l think, for my summers
work. l was rich then. After l found
out about Snyder l worked my own way
by making noOn-marks for the farmers.
They paid me 81 apiece, and that carried
me through in good shape"

Not Ready TO Resign.

Certain ambitious Republican states
men, or rather politicians, are remark
ably anxious for Mr.. Justice Bradley to
resign. He is past the age for retiring,
and he could now retire on a full salary
for the remainder of his life. These am
bilious Republicans are not so anxious,
however, that Justice Bradley should
pass his old age in ease and quiet as they
are to get him out of their way. They
think they would have a chance to sue
coed him if he should die or resign.
The argument they use is that he car
not probably hold on to his place through
the next administration, and that there
fore. if he does not resign now, so that
MIR, Arthur can appoint his successor, a
Democrat will get a very desirable life
office.
Justice Bradley, however, doesn't in
tend to resign. He isn't the kind Of a
man to quit work before be dies. Indeed,
he is pretty well convinced, probably,
that he would die very much sooner if he
should stop work than il he should coz
tinue it. He was asked Friday whether
there was any truth in the report that he
intended to retire. He promptly replied
that the report that he had ever limited to
anyone that he intended to retire was the
invention of an idle brain.
Justice Bradley intends to stick where
he IS until death claims him, but when
death will claim him no one can guess
with any degree Of certainty. He is a
dried-up looking little old man who, to the
casual observer, appears to be about ready
to be carried to his last resting place. He
is Just the kind of man, however, that
doesn't die when it is expected he will.
He may live to see the announcements of
the deaths of all of those who now want
his place. 1t was expected that Mr.. Til
den would die long before this, but he is
pretty lively old man yet. 1t is said
that he has gained % pounds in weight
within a year.

John Morrissey, the boss of the Ameri-

the statement that the agents of ODonc-

last explosions in London. The other
branch Of Irish extremists, however.
which is called the Dewey Breslin crowd,
contends that Rosa does noreal dynamite
work. Whether he is a dangerous man

time than that is required for a
caravan to traverse it. The only efectual
mode OF preventing the introduction of
cholera into this country is to stop the
European steamers, and let all the traffic
AID carrying of passengers be done by
sail vessels. OF course this will not be
done, and cholera may be expected to
break out on this side the Atlantic almost

Either l am still a EreemasOn, in which case
you should address me as such, or T am not

LAS for the substance of the charge, you
pretend that have violated an oath, the text
Of which is as follows: 1 do solemnly swear not

Permit me to observe that in the eyes Of
nous dUtreS juriSc0Hsuites an oath, like con
fesslOn, is indiyisible. If the first part of yoar
formula Is serious the second part is also.
If YOU talk about the ebb and flow of the tide
merely to mock and poke fun at MasOns there
Is no reason why | should not also poke fun
when you talk about your mysteries. 1 shall
not reveal anything, but If l should see tit to

THE SHADY RET KEATS OF THE DEPART
kENT OF JUSTICE


are gaZed at, perhaps, more anxiously
than those of any of the other Departments
by the outs who want to get in, and it is
alleged by those who have made a study
of the subject that this department has
more temptingly soft places than any
other. The present head of the depart
ment has proved by his frequent and
lengthy absences thai it can run itself in
some sort of fashion without the super.
vision of its ostensible chief. The depart
ment is absolutely top-heavy with its staff
of high sounding titles, good pay and
little or no work. 1t has a Solicitor
General with salary of $1,000
per annum, two Assistant Attorneys
General at $1,000 each. six Assistant
Attorneys at from $1,000 to 5000 each, and
three law clerks at from $4,000 to 81, 700.
Then it has an assistant Attorney General
assigned to the Interior Department at
$1,000, another assigned to the Post Office
Department at $4,000, a solicitor and as
sistaDt solicitor at $4,000 and $500 as
signed to the Treasury, solicitor at 81, 800
assigned to the internal revenue bureau,
and an examiner of claims at $500 as
signed to the State Department. The as
signed class, it is said, do not have quite
so easy time as those who are intrenched
in the department proper.
