Making Haste to Be Rich.

The agricultural chances in this
country never were better than now
the railroads are rather at the mercy
of the producers; the society in much
of the south is perfectly settled, and
III the present depression the lands can
be bought cheaply, and are good in
vestmenIs for those willing to wait.
The demon IN our economy is the idea
that we all ought to be made rich in
ten years. The ten years is the limit
Of mans endeavars. With this con
viction, nevertheless, no man ever
stops working in this country. He
cheats himself with lie and then
forgets the cheat. Hardly any Ameri
can does not believe that he is going
to get rich and stop a little ways in
advance of him, and none of them
were ever known to stop.

Wards Trial Begun.
JAMES d. FISH GIVES TESTIMONY AGAINST THE


PRISONER
The jury having been completed, the trial of
Ferdinand Ward was begun in New York yes
terday. The district attorney said Ward, on
May 5, 1884, presented a check for ST. 800 to
the Marine bank for certification, giving an un-
certified check therefor for SIS 600 on the First
upon his check from the Marine bank. The
$15, 900 check was not honored by the First
National bank, and Ward was guilty of grand
larceny by procuring $1l,OOO on Ii from the
Marine bank. The jury must remember that
Ward was not on trial for running Gen. Grant
and sending him broken-hearted to the grave,
for sending to state prison for ten years gen.
tleman highly connected In banking circles
but was merely on trial forgrand larceny. JAS
ID. Fish was the first witness called. As he took
his seat he leaned over in his chair and glared
savagely at Ward, who lowered his eyes,
Wards counsel moved that the jury be dis
missed on account Of the statement OF the dis
trict attorney regarding Gen. Grant and Mr..
his testimony by saying: 81 am sixty-six years
old, q convict at Auburn state prison, to which
was sentenced for ten years at hard labor"
He then detailed the transactions regarding
the $15, 900 check, and continued: 81 saw Ward
on MAY S, about clock. He came in on that
the withdrawal of a certified $4,000 check be-
cause an $S1 ,000 against which the former
sum was drawn, had been Withdrawn. Mr..
John H. Carr the receiving teller, was present
When the exchanges came In / found the
SS1 900 check which Ward said was drawn
was presented and paid by the bank. 4 rang
Ward up and told him. He said IL was strange,
but it would be all right; he was too busy to
come and see me then" BENJAMIN Fish, brother
of James ID. Fish, paying-teller of the Marine
bank, corroborated the latter's statements. The
trial will be continued to-day.

ME-. Roosevelt In ~ the Death.
HE RIDES TWO MILES WITH A BROKEN ARM II


PURSUIT OF FOX
The New York Times OF to-day says: A party
OF about 40 riders left Sycamore Hill, Oyster
Bay. at O'Clock Saturday afternoon in pursuit
Of Master Reynard. Among the gentlemen
were the Hon. Theodore Roosevelt, August Bel
mont jr., Alfred Morgan, Stanley Mortimer,
and Belmont Purdy. Each rider had his crsck
horse, as the country was deemed the '-stiffsst"
to be hunted over on either side Of the Atlantic.
Mr.. Roosevelt rode his horse Frank, powerful
thoroughbred, which. with distended nostrils,
led the cavalcade about one-third OF the dis
lance, when he suddenly began to go '-lame." Az
the hunt approached q stone wall about feet
high Frank hesitated. Mr.. Roosevelt drove his
spurs into the animals sides and Frank sprAnG
into the air. His lame leg bothered him, how
ever. He tripped on the wall, and horse and
rider rolled together over small pile OF stones.
Mr.. Roosevelt sprang 10 his feet and remounted
the animal as il arose. Dashing ahead the
plucky rider soon regafned the hounds, al
though he felt that something was wrong with
his left arm. Two miles further on the fox was
run to cover. Mr.. Roosevelt Immediately be-
came an object Of interest TO his companions.
His face was covered with blood, while his left
arm hung nerveless at his side. Upon examin-
alton IL was found that the ex-assemblyman
had received q simple fracture OF the len fore
