THOMAS JEFFERSON.
zho rrodigal Hospitality of the Ores

mo ProdigaI Hospitality Of the Great
American Patriot and Statesman.
Not until the days.of General Grant
was the English form Of giving nation
al gratitude pecuniary form observed
by even a part of the American people
Not few of the great leaders of the
revolution were allowed to die in
poverty, verifying the spirit, if not
the letter, of the lines:
.And bailifrs may eize his last blanket to-
Whose pail shall be upborne by heroes to-
morrow
Congress, in two or three cases,
showed a tardy sense of gratitude by
purchasing the papers and libraries of
those whose public service had caused
them to die inscivent, thus enabling
their families to live in something ap-
preaching comfort.
Thomas Jefferson, toward the close
of his life, was so infirm and poor that
he applied to the Legislature of Vir-
ginia for permission to dispose of his
large estate by lottery. He hoped by
this method to realize sum sufficient
to pay his debts and to give him COM
petence. Public duties prevented him
from looking after his estate during
many years, and profuse hospitality
exhausted his means. Mr.. Jeffer
son was the most popular of
American citizens, and people came
from far and near to see him, prompted
by curiosity or affection. Life at Mon
ticello resembled, for years, that in a
hotel at fashionable watering-place.
Members of Congress, office-holders,
elergymen, lawyers, doctors, artists,
foreigners and people of fashion flocked
to see the great statesman, and to par
take of his hospitality. Fifty guests
were entertained one night, and whole
families came in their carriages, and
remained for months. One family OF
six persons came from Europe and
made visit of ten months. Then they
made short tour through the States,
returned to Monticello and remained
six months longer.
A gentleman asked Wormley, Mr..
Jefferson's favorite servant, pointing to
the three carriage-houses, each of which
would contain a four-horse coach,
"How often were these filed ill Mr..
Jefferson's timer"
Every night IN summer, sir, y

had two or three carriages besides un-

a Sad Case Indeed.

Gilhooly and Hostetter McGinnis are
two Austin young men. who have here
tofore lived by their wits. They have
no money of their own, but manage to
live by borrowing and gambling. Not
long since Gilhooly's rich uncle died
and left him fortune. Shortly after
wards he met his old chum McGinnis,
who asked:
"What has come over your Before
you came into possession of all that
money, you were the jolliest fellow in
Austin, always in a good humor and
full of fun; but now that you are rich,
You sit around as if you had the tooth
ache. What has come over you, any

AN HISTORIC CANE.

Newspaper Man Carries a Piece of the
Old Frigate Constitution.
''Do you see that stick" said Mr.. A.
P. Cunningham, of the National Re
publican, as he held out a plain brown
walking stick for inspection. "Well,
that stick is historical. Did you ever
hear of the United States frigate Con-
stitution? That cane is made from one
of the original pieces of that vessel,
which was built in 1885 by subscrip-
ton from the women of Boston and
Massachusetts,. In 1875 the frigate
was brought down to the navy yard at
Philadelphia, which now belongs to the
Pennsylvania railroad, and was there
oyerhauled and rebuilt, the only orig
inal pieces left in her being her keel
son, part of her eutwater, five or six
ribs and her after bits. This piece is
part of the original molding in the
berth deck, its companion piece being
in the possession of Senator Logan. /
was in charge of the Constitution at
the time of her rebuilding, and cut
the piece out and had it finished under
my personal supervision. When re-
fitted the ship went to sea awhile and
is now in the old dock at the Brooklyn
navy yard. She is one of the finest
Quilt ships ever put together on Amer
lean stocks. Every timber in her was
live oak, her decks were of yellow pine,
and she was copper-fastened from stem
to stern. BY the way, 1 believe she
still carries her original fgurehead."

Attempt to?Wrec< n Passenger Train on
the Illinois Central.


the Illinois Central.
JACKSON, Tenn, Nov. 3.-MOnday
morning about $50 an infamous attempt
was made to wreck the north-bound pas
senger train on the Illinois Central railroad.
About half q mile from this city negro
man. who is i'll the employ of the Illinois
Central railroad, was fishing. He heard Il
knocking on the high railroad bridge
which spans the FOrked Deer river. He
slipped up near enough to discover three
white men taking oet the bolts and tear
ing up the cross-ties. The would-be
murderers discovered the negro and
ran off in the bottom. The negro re-
ported it Immediately to the officials of the
road and the rails were replaced just in
time to prevent a most horrible wreck. In
ten minutes after the rails were repaired
the north bound passenger, which was be-
hind time, came along at the rapid speed of
fOrty-five miles an hoNr. The object of the
tiends was to throw the train into the
Forlled Deer river, which would have been
done had not the negro discovered the hell
ish scheme and reported it, The sheriff
and posse of men have been securing the
woods till this evening looking for the viii
iains, but up to this writing they have not
been caught. Ii they should be caught
