Plttsburg Dispatch
Andrew jackson, It is related, was at
one time entertained at a dinner by a
gentleman, and among those present was
one OF those people who often find their
way into story books, etc, as the type of
that offensive class Of Americans who are
always trailing their nationality In the
dust In the effect TO exact their individual
independence. This particular gentle
man, over the wine and Walnuts after
dinner, in order to emphasize his own
Independence Of disposition, OF which he
was loudly bOastfui, remarked with a rare
exhibition Of self-complacencs to Gen.
Jackson:
al always vote against you, sir.
The company was naturally rendered
speechless by this unexpected disclosure,
and the scene naturally looked squaIIy
but Gen. jackson put a stopper on the
bOasttul individual and avoided further
troUo!e by smilngly remarking:
"And I, sir, have always fought the
battles Of my country that you might
enjoy that privilege"
Another Instance OF a happy response
is that Of an old southern judge-bui
whether Judge by courtesy or in fact, the
writer cannot stats-who must have had
the faculty Of quick and appropriate re-
ply pretty well developed, If the Dtory
related Of him is true. Speaking at &
certain place one evening In the Interest
Of his own candidacy for congress sons
one in the audience, who evidently had {
good memory, inquired:
Didn't you speak here just before the
warp
81 did" promptly responded thu
judge.
"And didn't you say We could WhiI
the burned Yankees with POp-gunsG' -
81 did" replied the unabashed judge
nbut, confOund 'em they wouldn't hgh
that way"

Two Excellent Dogs.

New Orleans Picayune.
A Georgia dog was lying IN the yard
when a negro girl rushed out of the
house with her dress burning. The dog
sprang at the girl and tore away part Of
the clothing. She broke away, but the
dog again caught her and continued his
efforts until all her clothing was torn OF
That the girl, though much burnt, stiI
lives is due to the dog, whose month and
foreface were badly burned in his efforts
to save her.
A bird dog is owned by William
Goodall, an eI-pugilist, Of Youngstown,
o. One night last week AIrs. GoodaI
was sleeping with her two children when
she was awakened by the dog barking
and pulling at the bedelothes. She al
once became aware that the room Was
fun Of smoke, and rushed out TO give the
alarm. While she was gone the dog
seized the night-drszs Of a little girl Of
years and eauied her out OF the loom
The other child was rescued without
trouble The house was burned

CbaHse and Bowen.

St. Louis POst-Dispatcn.
jerome B. Chaffse, by the way, was
one Of the nOblest characters that greed
the western mini-g districts in the flush
days when all men were brothers, all
were on "the square divide" and to be
known as the ''whiteEt man In camp -
which was Chahee's reputation-Was an
enviable distinction. More than one
poor miner III the Olden days owes his
Subsequent success to Chafee's kind
ness in giving his foot a secure resting
place on the ladder OF fortune. Among
those who were blessed with his protect
ing friendship was ex-senator Tom Bowen
Of Colorado. 1t was In the poker and
prospecting period of Bowen's career,
when ne was rich one day and went sup
PEERLESS to bed the next. Tom On that
occasion was experiencing an unusually
hard streak of luck. He wandered
around the streets Of Denver without
any shirt on, cIutchilg a thrsadbare but
tonless swallOWtail coat with his half
frozen hands to keep the cold wind ont,
and wondering how and where be was
going to catch on next, when he was met
by Chaffee. Bowen tried to background
a cOrner-he had known Chaffee a short
time before when he was f1ush-but
Chaffee darted after and captured
him. After a brief conversation Chaffee
presented Bowen with 500 in cash, told
him to strike out for the mines, and when
the money was spent to come back for
more. Bowen went as directed. He
pottered around awhile on the Del Eorte
river, and finally struck ore In the Little
/ Aimee, which was the foundation Of a
| large fortune.

can Trade Marx.
LONDON Enc, September 9, 1s85.-Ln the
lnaneeIy Division Of the High Court OF
justice London, Nice-Ghancellor Bacon has
given his decision in favor Of the Charles A.
Fogeler Company Of Baltimore, Nd, In the
action brought by that house against Isl.
Churchill g. Company Of Brisbane, Queens
land. The case which has been In progress
here since September 1884, grew out Of an
attempt Of Churchill q Company 60 register
a trade mark containing the words st.
PaIrIcZ's OIL in connection with a medici-
nal preparation. This was promptly opposed
BY the Vogeler Company, who, while admit
ting that the term and device which Wers
sought to be registered by the Australian
arm were in no respect identical to the we'll
known St. Jacobs Oil trade market contend
ed however, that sufficient similarity exist
cd between the term st. Patrick's, applied
by Churchill b Company, and st. Jacobs,
as used by the V0geler Company, to cause
confusion in the minds Of the public and
lead to purchasers being deceived. In sup
port of this pos ton they submitted an over
Whelming amount Of evidence from English,
American and Australian sources with the
results stated. Under the decision OF the
Court, Churchill d Company cannot register
their mark and must pay costs Of ths casa.
This IS the second trade marx suit won by
the VOgeler Company in England within
three years.

Stanton, I see, toiling without remis-
sion at his overwhelming task. This
man was In labor a giant, and perhaps g.
country never was served with a Steiner
sense Of duty. In the field OF mules,
IN the office Stanton pulled the war
through with dOgged tenaeity and with
little reward OF praise, For Stanton
seemed not to be popular. In his posi-
ton it was hardly possible to avoid max
ing enemies, and he was probably rem
dered irritable by the malady which he
had o. ntracted by sitting without inter
mission at his desk. Ifmonuments were
