that the best thing she had were some

DICK wINTERsMITH's GREAT ARGUMENT.
The Rodman Price claim, which passed
the last Congress, has been practically set
tied, but the secretary of the treasury will
not give the claimants the SIS, 900 which
they thought they would receive. There
was a case in New Jersey court concern
ing this claim which showed that q few
hundred dollars would legally settle it, and
the secretary of the treasury allowed only
the latter sum. While the case was before
Secretary Foster some of the most noted
lawyers of the country appeared in its
favor. There were men of the calibre of
Senator Edmunds. Robert G. Ingersoll and
others, but the strongest argument was
made by Colonel Dick Wintersmlth, of
Kentucky. Colonel Wintersmith made his
argument in whisper. He got close up to
Secretary Foster and said:
''Mr. Secretary, these other lawyers have
good arguments, but mineis superior to all.
This case is a ground hog case with me-"
And with that he slipped strip of paper
out of his breast pocket, held it behind his
arm and came closer still to Secretary
Foster whispering: MIR. Secretary, do
you see that note for $500! That note has
gone to protest, and if this Price claim isn't
settled in our favor l don't know where the
devil Pm going to get the money to pay it."
Secretary Foster laughed. He sympathized
with Wintersmith, but he decided the case
against him.

CHANCES OF MAKING FORTUNES
An Experience With Gladstone at the Time

Woman Philanthropist

New YORK, Oct %, 1S91.-l Special cor
respondence of THE HERALD. Among
the most important bills which will be pre-
scented to the next Congress are those for
new ocean cables. The old scheme for lay
ing cable from San Francisco to the
Sandwich Islands will be revived and a
new one for putting down a cable from San
Francisco to China across the Pacific will
1t is said be proposed. There are now
half a dozen cables across the Atlantic, and
the whole world has been Joined together
by cable connections. The man who laid
the first cable lives here in New York, and
! called upon him yesterday to ask him as
20 the possibilities Of the line across the
Pacific. His name, as everyone knows, is
Cyrus w Field. He organized the com
pany for the building of the first Allan tic
cable in 1854. His line was 1900 miles long
Il cost more than a million and half Of
dollars and was failure He tried It again
In 1855, and the cable spoke few words
and was silent Then the war came, and
for eight years nothing was done. as soon
rs IL had closed, however, Mr.. Field again
took up lis scheme, and in 1866 the first
successful cable was laid. Now we have
cables everywhere, and there is in Mr.
Fields Office a great case filled with sec
tions of wire rope cut from the greatest
cables in the world. There are score of
these behind the glass door of this case, and
they represent lines to South America
along the coast of Africa, through the Med
iterranean sea and along the waters of
China and Japan. Mr.. Field told me that
there was no doubt but that successful
line could be made across the Pacific, and
he showed me map which he had made in
support of a similar scheme proposed by
him to Congress more than eleven years
$50. At this time Mr.. Field proposed cables
for Japan, Australia and the Sandwich
Islands, and the zap shows that Il .000,miles
Of cable would give US TWO cables TO Japan
and one to Australia. Taking the northern
route. running from Puget Sound to Vladi-
yostock and thence down to Corea. the dis
lance is 4 600 miles, and to this adding 20
per cent for slack would make a cable of
This kind extend 4, $40 miles from one con-
tiuent to another. 1t is 2,100 miles from
San Francisco to the Sandwich Islands, and
more than 3, 400 miles from the Sandwich
Islands TO Japan. With the slack in the

would have said there was little gain.
The second ascent came at last, and
here, on n broken road, full Of deep ruts,
which helped to check the stage, the
young man brought everything up
standing, A two mile run it had been,
and the horses wero still rearing and
plunging.
The other passenger peered carefully
out Of the window and asked what was
the matter. He was ordered to open the
door, jump out, and take the leaders by
the head. The young man "set" the
brakes, climbed down and began to col
lect the remnants Of the lines and knot
them together.
A little later Smoky came running mp
In a state of despair and exhaustion.
His pleasure at discovering the coach
and horses uninjured took the form Of o
series Of wild yells and contortions that
would have done credit to a Shasta In
dian skeleton dance. He climbed back
on the box, the passengers got in, and
the stage started off at redoubled speed
10 make up for lost time.
The story went around among the
stage drivers. There was q young fell
low that must be taken care Of. He
was to have tho scat with the driver, no
matter who wanted it. 30 was the
imam wot stopped Smoky's turnout on
the Penn Valley grade" Even today if
the hero Of this true tale were to leave
his great mills and business enterprises
in San Francisco and 60 to the wilds Of
Modoc and Sisbiyou beyond the outposts
Of the railroad, he would be almost sure
to discover that his name and fame We're
/ known; that the word would be sent
along tho line, "Smoky's passenger is
goin' over this road" ald the grumpiest
Of old stagers would unbend and treat
him rs an equal. Tho young man who
climbed out over the wheel and ''put
down the brakes on Sinoky's s~tagecoach
thirty years ago, is still an honorary
member Of the craft of ancient and
weather beaten masters Of the whip and
ribbons.
Perhaps the reader will think that the
story is incomplete without the name Of
the young man. It was a. S. Hallidie,

whon Is It J%uatlaabIo to KIN a burglar

when Is It JustiEabIe to XIII n Burglar9
The question is often asked, When is
it justifable to kill IL burglar. A forci-
BILE or felonious attempt to violate a
mans rights 20 his house or goods may
be resisted with any necessary amount
of violence, even to the extent of killing,
but not where the felony is without VIC
lence. But you cannot anticipate killing
you cannot kill him in cold blood be-
AUS you think he will kill You. If after
ordering Il man 20 leave your house he
remains there, and so t~errifies you that,
for fear Of your life, you shoot him, the
law viii not be very particular in decid-
ing whether you were or were not with.
in your right in shooting him, for "omnis
presumutur contra spoliatorem."
1t is possible to justify the killing of q
burglar who has forcibiy broken into, OF
is breaking into, our house on the ground
that thereby our life was endangered,
but if he has already retreated and has
escaped from Us, we are not, in the quaint
language Of an old writer, justified il
shooting him as no Geeth down the ave
nue.-Gcntleman's Magazine.
