HOME JOURS.
Beecher's Home Life.

Home was always the place,
whether in early or later life, where
Mr.. Beecher shone the brightest;
where the nOblest and best parts OF
bis character were the most thorough
ly developed and best understood,
writes Mrs. Henry Ward Beecher In
her "reminiscences in The Ladies Home
Journal, There he never failed to
reveal himself in his best and
happiest moods. Unless out OF town
which was not often in our first ten
years-He was seldom absent from
the home table. Then as far as posi-
BILE, he put his daily cares TO one side.
Between his private home-lite and
his public life there could be no
comparison, even in earlier life. Mr..
Beecher at home was the playmate
and companion of the young; tn 9
devotedly loved father, the thought
full, tender, loving husband, and in
later years, the kind and cheerful
master of his farm; happy himself,
and making bis dependents and all
around him happy. He was an Gu
tirely different person there than
when in his study-silent, grave, al
most In sternness if interrupted:
wholly absorbed In the subject before
him. Occasionally We accepted an
invitation to diuner sOr tea-more
frequently in later days. He always
enjoyed the visit and loved the friends
he met on those occasions. But, re-
turning home, the moment the door
closed there were but few occasions
when he would not say with a smile
"Well, we have had pleasant eve-
ming. L am glad we went; but, after
all, there is no spot like home"
Then, as the children and grand
children grew up around us, if we
returned before they retired, there
was always pleasant or amusing talks
and at morning or midday meals
there would be no limit to the plea
sure he tried to give to all. In his
spare moments the little ones were
given unrestrained liberty. But
when no more time could be spared,
with pleasant smile he would say,
There, that will do, and with a part.
ing or goodnight kiss, he turned to
his desk, and all understood that
play time was over.

TO THE CREDITORS
OF THE MAVERICK BANK.

SAN ANTONIO, Tex, Oct -, ls9l.-It ap-
pearing that about four hundred and fifty
creditors of the Maverick bank, representing
an aggregate Indebtedness of about sixty
thousand dollars tS60,O00), neglected to file
their several claims against the assigned es-
tate of sam Maverick within the time pre-
scribed by law, and are therefore denied par
ucipatiOn in the assigned estate, and under-
standing that such neglect 10 file was in most
instances caused by oversight or ignorance of
the law, and desiring to see those creditors
their claims, and having faith in the assigned
estate of Sam Maverick ultimately paying the
debts in full, with surplus sufficient to re-
imburse us; therefore we, the undersigned
will pay to the creditors of the bank who
have failed to file their claims, when the
amount due shall be certified from the books
or the bank by the custodian thereof, and ap-
proved by us, the same percentages as have
been and may be hereafter paid b. the as
signee on the filed claims; that is, Immediate
ly on such claims being certified, approved
and accepted by us as Just claims against the
Maverick bank, we will pay a percentage
thereon equal to the percentage that may
have been at the time Of such transfer, paid
by the assignee upon claims duly filed against
the assigned estate and we will pay thereafter
on such claims additional percentages equal
to percentages thereafter paid by the assignee
on filed claims. We reserve the rig hit to reject
any claims not considered by us to be Just.
We will hold the claims so transferred to US
under this proposition, not as charges or
claims against the assigned estate, and they
shall only be repaid to us from such estate
after it shall have paid in full the creditors
who filed their claims.
Creditors desiring to accept this PROPOSE
ton must present their claims to Albert
Maverick, at mis- office, during the sixty DAYS
from November II, 1891, to January 10, 1892,
inclusive, and must be prepared TO assign to
us their claims, taking our obligations to
carry out the terms of this proposition.
Therefore take notice that claims not pre-
sented on or before January 10, 1892, will not
be considered by us.

An old granger near the city in

was issued, l took the case for the
owner of the cattle, and early one
morning drove out to the Office of an
old German squire, or Justice Of the
Peace. His temple OF Jus tice was an
old rattle trap of a building with no
ceiling, bat stringers across where
the clapboards terminated and the
peaked roof began. The occupants of
these stringers Kept all below busily
lodging tobacco juice. The jury was
made up Of a lot of honest, old soil

The two old attorneys were not
slow to catch on, and they took the
widest liberties, disregarding every

insanity, and my client looked. like a
thunder cloud rampant. Dinner
time came and the Squire had a
spread for jurors, lawyers and liti-
giants. My opponents were in high

There is no doubt that the Idaho con-
test has done the state some damage,

Judge Clagett is still determined to
make fight for the seat, although 1t
is apparent that he has no possible
chance of success. Dubois has been
obliged to be very modest and take
what he could get because of the con-
test. Any man with contest on his
hands is hampered, and so far all that
Clagett has thus far accomplished is to
hamper Dubois.
