1t is difficult to retain simplicity OF
life and devotion to religious duty
when burdened with business, fortune
and honor, but it can be done, for it
has been done.
Lord Hatherly was an eminent law
yer and learned lord chancellor, but
for forty years he was a Sunday school
teacher among the poor of Westmin-
ster. Even while lord chancellor of
England he was to be found every
Sunday, seated among the poor work
ingmen's children reading and ex-
planning to them the scriptures.
But the great mans life was as won
derful in its simplicity as in its devo
ton to duty. Once, by special invita-.
ton of Queen Victoria, he visited her
at Windsor castle, and remained over
night. On the morning of his depart
ure, the queen said she wished he
would stay another night at the cas-
tie. Seeing that he seemed perplexed,
she said:
why do you hesitate, my lordi'
Your majesty, answered the lord
chancellor, II have never, since l was
married, been parted from my wife
for four and twenty hours before"
"Oh, l won't keep you, then" ex-
claimed the queen, with that ready
sympathy which is one of her traits.
Lord Hatherly returned home, and
when again the queen invited him to
Windsor she was careful to ask him to

Politics AND LIVE STOCK

90
The Sun seems to be agitated over the
question OF politics IN the stock commits
sion but cannot put a good face npon the
matter even by %misquotiug from TIE
LEADERS statement OF the opposition
made by the territorial stockmen regard
less OF politics.
The LEADER opposed the passage Of a
new stock law by the last legislature be
cause the law under which the old com
mission was organized was an infinitely
better one than that proposed by tie new
law. The old commission was operated by
money derived from the sale Of mavericks
Under the new law the commission was
voted outright $40. 900 and the maverick.
fund was turned over to the territory.
AT the time THE LEADER pointed ou
that the maverick fund under this ar
ranGement would not prove anything like
an offset to the direct appropriation.
Two years ago the mavericks brought in
round numbers $40. 900; one year ago.
IS, 900, This year it is safe 10 say they
will not net the territory 81, 900 instead
of $40, 900 as the Sun asserts.
The natural result of ak these manipu
lations is to arouse an insurmountable
prejudice against the appropriation of
any public funds to the exclusive use OF
the stockmen. This may prove an ex
ceedingly undesirable condition of affairs
for the class interested. 1t cannot but
result harmlully to the stock inter ests
and there will be no one to blame for it
but those who prostitute the public ser
vice to politics ends.
To show the unfalrness with which the
Sun discusses this question we will make
one quotation from a very extended ar
ticle published yesterday:
The custom Of drawing from the funds
OF the commissioners for travelling ex
penses is to be abolished =
The inference of course is that under
the old law the stock commission drew a
per diem and mileage. Not one member
ever drew a cent for either purpose. 1t is
therefore difficult to conceive how a Gus
ton is to be abolished which has never
been in vogue.

A Woman at the Old Book. Auction.

| was over at an auction sale of old
books the other day. The auctioneer
held up a dusty volume which from
the title was worth about ten cents and
asked the usual question, How
much2"
A woman in the crowd said Fifty
cents"
The auctioneer began crying fifty
cents, wanting to know if he heard
the sixty" As he asked the question
his eyes accidentally turned toward
the bidder and she nodded. The auc-
tioneer began crying sixty cents and
wanted to know if he heard 1.-The sew
enty." The woman nodded and the
a%uctioneer took the bid and cried
Seventy cents; do hear the eighty Z"
The woman nodded again. This kept
up till the woman had run her bid UP
to 81. 80. The a%uctionecr then asked
her name, whereupon he said, sold
to Mrs. - for fifty cents" whereat
the crowd roared, but the poor woman
didn't seem to know what the roar
meant. She paid her fifty cents, tuck
ed the book under her shawl, and went
out.-Chicago Tribune.

The sen.n,lon Of Hanging.

Lord Ponsonby, who was hanged by
a mob in Paris in 1871 and cut down
before life was extinct, proceeded to
give an account of his sensations on re-
turning to consciousness. He could
not have actually been suspended in
mid air more than a few seconds, and
yet in that brief space of time all the
events of his past life passed through
his mind. 1t is true that his life up TO
that date had not been a very event
full one, being only 10 years of age;
but every past sensation was renewed
i'll all its freshness. 1t is also remark
able that he did not at the time expe-
rience any sensation Of fear; while,
he added, his was an essentially ner-
you temperament. This remarkable
mental power Of calling up the past in
moments Of suspended animation l
have heard frequently mentioned.
One was the case of Count Itchy, in
the revolution of 1S4S, in Vienna. He
was caught by the savage mob, hung
like Lord Ponsonby in the middle of
the street, when his own regiment of
dragons charged down and cut the
cords AS he was swinging in the air.
He fell TO the ground and was suppos-
ed to be dead; but his recovery was a
very different matter from Lord Pom
sonby's, for lie suffered agonies, and
for ten days had our men constantly
with him. He described exactly the
same sensations as Lord Ponsonby +;
the scroll of what was a much longer
life was unrolled, even the smallest
detail rushed back ON his memory; he
had the same ~fearlessness at the mo
mcut, but he felt all the horror Of the
agony when the danger was past

business very dull and not knowing
what to invent to give a new impulse

l believe there is nothing that takes
the heart out of young men more,than
this modern talk about a pull. If one
gives over to it he begins to neglect
his work in his effort to get a pull, or
he becomes disheartened because he
