The baleful effects of persistent Office
seeking are strikingly illustrated in the
case of Henry w. Rogers, who has been
in Washington since March 4th in
search Of a consulate. Saturday last he
was arrested as vagrant, and ordered
to get out of town. He had spent all
the ready money he had with him, ex-
cept little small change and was roam
ing about the streets not knowing what
to do with himself. How much better
off he would be if he had remained at
home, attending to some legitimate bus
mess and let the consulship slide.

society's Worst Enemy,

The noble system of trial by jury is
falling into somewhat of disrepute by
reason of a suspicion of the corruption
of jurors. The suspicion doubtless is in
excess of the fact The corrupt juror is
the exception, not the rule. But he is a
very dangerous exception. He is more
dangerous TO society than the highway
man or the murderer, who also is an ex-
ceptional character. The corruption Of
the jury box is the greatest Of all evils.

Robert T. LincoIn's Bill,

Mr.. Robert T. Lincoln likes to tell the
story of his first fee as an attorney.
Old Judge Logan, under whom he
read law, had always told him not to
be afraid to charge big fees for his SER
vices. People don't respect cheap
lawyer" said the judge.
One day soon after Mr. Lincoln had
been admitted to practice he sat alone
in his Office when messenger brought
note from the Chicago agent of one
of the wealthiest insurance companies
in America, asking to have the title to
a certain piece of property looked up.
The young lawyer spent about half an
hour looking into the title and then
sent his report to the insurance office.
Pretty soon the messenger came with
another note This one requested Mr..
Lincoln to send his bill by the bearer.
The young lawyer had no idea what
to charge. At first he thought it
would be good policy not to charge
anything "for," said he to himself, II
should like to get that company's work
regularly" But he knew Judge Lo-
gan would not approve that sort of
thing, and he didn't want the Judge
to think that he was needless of his
advice. So he figured it that, since he
had worked only half an hour, $40
would be good stiff price, for it
would be at the rate of 5000 for a day
OF ten hours. The words of Judge
Logan, however, rang in his ears, and
with a stroke of audaeity that almost
frightened him, Mr.. Lincoln finally
made the bill for $25. He felt that
this was an outrageously high fee, and
was hesitating as to whether he would
give it to the boy Or make out another
for $40, when Judge Logan CHANGED to
come in.
"You are just the man I want to
see," said Mr. Lincoln, and he told
him of his dilemma.
Judge Logan took the bill and tore
II knew it was outrageously high, I"
said Mr.. Lincoln, "but Judge, you al
ways told me to make big bills, and
did this more TO please you than my
self"
'Nonsense!" said the Judge; "give
me pen"
He sat down, wrote another bill. and
gave it to the boy.
In few minutes the boy returned
with the insurance agents check for
$3.50, and little note to Mr.. Lincoln
thanking him for his pro-nptness, and
saying the company's other work of
this character would be sent to him.
Great Scottl" said the young law
yer to the old one, Ibid you makeout a
bill for $2502''
''Of course I did," answered the old
Judge; "you don't want to be an cleo
mosynary institution for insurance
companies, do you2"-Washington

UEGALLANT PROVERBS.
The Part Played by Women in the Laws OF
Various Peoples.

The Part Played by Women in the Laws OF
Various Peoples.
A contributor to the Freisinnige
Zeitung has collected from all the fore
most nations of the world heap of
proverbs of men concerning women"
It appears from them that the South
ern peoples, who count themselves the
most chivalrous and gallant toward
the ladies, are more coarse and insult
ing in their proverbs than the colder
Northerners Although the Germans.
the Scandinavians. and the English are
complimentary to the women in their
proverbs, they are rarely brutal"
The Frenchman says: "a man who
has a wife has plague;" "a man
made of straw is worth double as much
as woman made of gold" The Span
lard says: "a woman's advice is never
of any use, but unless you follow it
she will rail at you as a fool;" "Be
on your guard against a bad woman,
but do not put your trust in good
woman" There is only one bad
woman, but every husband believes he
possesses her." The Italians say: eff
a man loses his wife and farthing he
has only lost farthing." The chief
failings of the sex. according to a
whole host of English and German
proverbs, are changeableness and
talkativeness, the former of which is
equally true of men and the latter not
disagreeable to men in the Latin
nations. The charge that ''Women's
minds and April winds often change"
and the statement that "a woman's
strength lies in her tongue" appear to
be accepted in various readings
throughout Northern Europe. The
specimen of Yankee proverb is char
acteristic: women can keep secret,
but it takes big crowd Of them to do
it." The Chinese say that "a wom-
ans tongue is her sword" but 'She
never lets it grow rusty"

A Point In Photography.

The amateur photographers greatest
difficulties are in the management of his
light. He learns his lesson pretty thor
oughly, but tries to take a picture in
full sunlight, and as result generally
starts out with failure. If you notice
photographers studios you will find the
glass roof is always made to slope toward
the north. This means no sun all day,
and is the exact reverse of the fashion,
able southern exposure" But the light
from the north is far preferable for pict-
ure making than any other, and land
scape views taken in tho morning are in
consequence generally thesbest. In ar
ranging groups for out of doors pictures
it is often difficult to convince subjects
that dazzling sunlight is nearly certain
to spoil the effect and produce white
smear.-Interview in St Louis Globe.

SAN FRANCISCO.

In our last issue we mentioned the re-
cent report of strike in the San Fran
cisco as being true, and which has been
predicted by so many. The main strike
was on the 550-foot level. They had to
run Is feet to the vein. This placed
them under the ore displacement, where
they have over feet of good ore, one
streak of this being exceedingly rich,
averaging $50 odd ounces to the ton,
heavily laden with ruby. The balance
of the ore chute averages about l50
ounces, the latter carrying considerable
antimony and galena. The vein is large,
strong and compact. The original in
tention was to sink to the 600-foot level
before tapping the vein. The principal
reason for not doing so was that the
water increased so rapidly that the
pumps were fast approaching their limit.
This, and some other reasons, was the
cause of tapping the vein at the 55O-foot
level. The water has increased at such
rate that they now barely have it under
control with the present facilities. This
volume Of water proves that Superintcn-
dent Smiths theory that the mine was at
the water level was correct. and also that
the ore now found will retain its mineral,
and will not be leached out similar to
portions of the vein at the 200 and 400
foot levels. Little work has been done
as yet on this strike. Mr.. Smith went to
Helena this week to purchase new
pump, and We will be able to give our
readers some more information after the
company have 6rifted on the vein. Ali
the indications are very favorable for
permanent, extensive and rich mine.
A shipment of twenty-one tons of ore
was made this week through Austin's
sampler to the Omaha smelling and re-
duction works. Whether it is the in
tention to ship more or not at present
we are unable to say.

AN OLD TIMERS DEATH.
Andrew Wales Dies at Ekeimviile of
DrOpsy.

HELMv11LE, Mont, Jan. a, 1889.
The people of Helmville have e1per-
fenced quite stroke of sorrow by the
rather sudden death Of one of their cltl-
zens, Andrew Woles. The deceased had
been resident of Nevada valley some
eight years and had endeared himself in
many hearts and hence he had the good
will and praise of the whole community.
His death. which occurred on Wednes-
day evening, at 6 o'clock, was somewhat
unexpected, although he had been
afflicted with the dropsy at the heart for
several weeks. The Rev. Father De
Ryckere was sent for the previous week
and was obedient to the call, rendering
spiritual comfort to his suffering subject.
The two daughters of the deceased, re-
siding respectively at Argenta, Montana,
and Ogden, Utah, were Immediately in
formed of the sad affair and at once set
out for the home of the deceased, reach
ing thither on Friday evening. A third
married daughter, living In or near New
York, the former home Of the family, was
also made acquainted with the fact of
her fathers death, but remained at home
to bear her grief and sorrow alone. The
deceased was buried on Sunday last, at
II o'clock, Judge Mannix officiating. To
show their affection for the dead and
their sympathy for the bereaved ones the
whole community turned out almost en-
masse and followed as mourners. Thus
has departed from our midst loving
father, a faithful husband and good
and much respected neighbor. He leaves
six children and a wife to mourn his loss.

Little has ever been said through the

boast of such noble birth, and its future
prospects are not conducive of discour-
agement to man of the most modest
ambition.
Rumsey is, geographically, the
diverging point of Granite and with
a few necessary acquisitions we hope to
secure this just claim and divert the
Granite freight and passenger traffic to
Rumsey instead Of Philipsburg. To Sc
cure this we must first improve oul
route of transportation. The road i
