And Didn't Care Copper for the S35, 900
involved In the Suit.
A lawyer of some eminence in this
city, says the New York Times, while
enjoying social hour with some friends
the other night, narrated IN incident
OF his practice in which Daniel Drew,
then liking Of Wall street." figured.
Mr.. Drew had been sued by persons
who had been let out Of the small end
of the horn by him in u stock transac-
tion. The rugged financier was indig-
nant and vicious when he sought the
aforesaid lawyer and requested him to
take the case. The amount for which
the plaintiffs sued was aboat $50, 600.
and Drew said that he wanted the case
brought into court SO that he might
''show up them fellers." The lawyers
made Il careful investigation OF the
facts and found that his client had
scarcely a leg to stand on in court. He
was anxious to win the case however,
and determined to see what ingenuity
and an exhaustive knowledge OF legal
technicalities would accomplish. Cir
cumstances favored him and through
carelessness on the other side he sue
ceeded In non-suiting the plaintiffs.
Elated with this result he called on Mr..
Drew and triumphantly announced that
victory was theirs.
But haven't had chance to testi-
fy." said the old speculator peevishly.
THAT was not necessary. We have
won the case without trial"
"The deuce you have" exclaimed
Mr.. Drew, angrily. "Well. you are a
fine lawyer to look after the interests
OF your clients. wouldn't give dol
lar bunch for such lawyers as you
are"
You don't seem to understand, Mr..
Drew" explained the lawyer. 1--WE
have won the suit, and you are S35, 900
ahead. to say nothing OF the costs"
Thunder and lightning man, fumei

about s35, 900? wanted to get on the

English rcrrl,ory Painted Rcd.

British fondness for territory is
illustrated very graphically in we'll
known pocket-atlas published by an
English firm. British possessions are
all printed in n brilliant shade OF red |;
but the world is a large place and even
the numerous colonies OF the little
island fail to make as great a show as
was desired SO Grant Land, the great
continent Of rock and ice lying north
of the Arctic Circle. and Graham Land,
similar tract south OF the Antarctic
Circle, were also printed in rosy hue.
These desolate wastes are underlined
and unexplored. and OF about as much

nation win dispute Britannia's right
to paint them red IL she wants to.

Crevasse. OF NOUN, 81, E,,a,.

Crossing the great snow field form
ing the floor of the 'amphitheater were
hundreds Of yawning chasms, many of
them twenty to forty feet in breath and
half mile in length. These we had
to cross by narrow snow bridges or
follow for long distances before being
able to pass around their ends. A view
into the blue depths of one OF these
great crevasses is sight mover to be
forgotten. Their lips are of white
snow, testooned and overarching In a
thousand fantastic forms; below, the
color changes by impcrceptible grada-
tions to the deepest blue. Their ex-
treme depths are as dark in color az
the upfathomable sea. Many times
their bottoms are beyond the reach OF
visions again they are level-Aoored and
form fairy-like valley with walls CT
sculptured crystal; in other instances
they are partly filed with water OF the
deepest indigo, in which every detail
OF the fretted walls above is reflected.
Some OF the larger crevasses are
crossed by snow arches, thrown direct
ly from bank to bank, and resembling
in their grand proportions the natural
bridge OF Virginia Our way lay for
miles along this beautiful but treacher-
Gus pavement along the brink OF dizzy
precipices, and across narrow bridges
With bottomless gulfs on each hand.
Although we had been living on the
glaciers for weeks and had become fa-
;niliar with many Of their wonders. the
great crevasses in the upper snow re-
gions were SO magnificent in their pro-
portions and so wonderful in color that
they called forth eyclamations OF ad-
miration from every member OF our
party.-The Century.

On the Warpath Again.

Judge Lawrence, one of the political
wool shepherds of Ohio, is trying to have
the treasury department rule that all as
sorted carpet woods shall pay double
duty. AS it is, the duties are much
higher than under the old law, and have
already caused the price of carpets to
advance 10 per cent. or more Manu-
facturers Of carpets say that if Judge
Lawrence succeeds in getting the deci-
sion he is demanding many classes OF
carpet wool will be absolutely shut out
of the country. AS we raise practically
no carpet wool ourselves, our carpet
makers will thus be compelled to con.
fine their operations to the less desirable
imported woods. We imported $780,.
900 pounds Of carpet wool last year
which was more than three-quarters Of
our entire imports Of wool.
A preyious achievement of Judge Law
renee was to get the treasury depart
ment to tax common goats hair at thu
+ rate of cOmbing woods, thus excluding i
from the country. As he is again on thu
warpath the carpet makers are said t.
stand in fear and trembling, hardl,

eign woods lest decision should b

Unhappy Silk Workers.

The silk industry of this country is
protected from so to 60 per cent. ''for
the benefit of American labor" But
labor in the silk industry is not happy.
Master Workman Kaminski, of the
United Silk Workers of North America,
claims that in the past twelve months
wages have been cut down in some cases
as much as so per cent.
No wonder then that at the recent
meeting of the silk workers they passed
the following resolutions:
Whereas, The six industry of the United
States. despite the high protective tariff, is at
present in a most deDlorable condition wages
other occupations, and in view of the fact that
since 1889 the wages Of ribbon weavers have
been reduced So per cent, be it
Resolved, That the representatives of the
United States Silk Workers of North America,
now IN session, appeal to the friends of Ameri-
can labor not to purchase silk fabrics of foreign
manufacture, which are actually inferior to
those made here; and be It
Resolved. That in our opinion neither protec-
ton free trade benefits the workman and
we therefore call upon all silk workers who ar
unorganiZed to band themselves together int
the national body, and it is our further opinion
that the only protection ysorkingmen viii evol
receive viii be that they give themselves.
But protection is given upon the plea
that it viii guarantee good wages and
steady employment. .
