They We're Both from jersey.

One specially high peak of the Andes
affords peculiarly fine view of the sun
rise, and on two sides of this peak huts
have been built within an hours climb
of the apex in order that travellers hav-
ing scrambled up the mountain side may
rest over night and go at it fresh in the
morning. An American, says the New
York Sun, reached the summit of the
mountain from one of the huts Just at
sunrise one morning and found himself
face to face with a stranger who had
toiled up from the hut on the opposite
side.
Both gazed in silence at the sight be-
low, and then one said to the other,
"There is only one other view that
equals this, in my opinion" "Just what
was thinking" said his companion.
whats your other view?' ''That to
be seen at sunrise from Fort Nonsense,
near Morristown, N. j." said the first.
"Why, that's mine, too" said the other;
and then, standing together on that
lonely peak, the two compared notes,
and discovered that they were neighbour
in the little Jersey town.

Discovery of the Lncifer Match.

Like many other bright men the Eng

The discoverer, Mr.. Isaac Holden, NJ.

'In the morning used to get up at
o'clock in order to pursue my studies,
and used at that time the flint and the
steel, in the use Of which / found very
great Inconvenience. OF course knew,
as other chemists did, the explosive ma
terial that was necessary In order to
produce instantaneous light, but it was
very difficult to obtain a light on wood
by that explosive material, and the idea
occurred to me to put sulphur under the
explosive mixture. | did that, and
showed it in my next lecture on chemis-
try, course of which l was delivering
at large academy.
"There was" added Mr.. Holden, ga
young man in the room whose father
was chemist in London, and he i'm
mediately wrote to his father about it.
and shortly afterward lucifer matches
were issued to the world. believe that
was the first occasion that we had the
present lucifer match. l was urged to
go and take out a patent Immediately,
but thought it was so small a matter
and it cost me so little labor that l did
not think it proper to go and get pat
emit; otherwise have no doubt it would
have been very profitable"

Speaking of James H. Miller, post
master at Gauley Bridge, VIVA, New

President William Henry Harrison over
fifty years ago, and is probably the old
est postmaster in the country. He has
retained his Office through all the politi-
cal changes of the past half century, and
at the age of eighty-six years is as
prompt and efficient as any postmaster
in the state. During the late war Mr..

the Confederate lines, but he was never

WALTER oUlNToN eREsHAM.s
An Indianian Who Has Been Prominent
in Various Ways.

An Indianian Who Has Been ept
in Various Ways.
Hon. Walter Quinton Gresham, to
whom recent political movements have
called attention, has had the singular
experience of becoming eminent in sew
eral lines and still falling short of the
goal he had aimed for or the promotion
his friends had designed for him. Pow
erty, wounds and unexpected combina-
lions of events have in turn checked his
progress in college, the army, the cabi-
net and political life, yet he has attained
high rank among soldiers and states
men and is now held in the highest
esteem as judge.
He was born March II, 1892, near
GAINESVILLE, Harrison county, Ind. He
obtained very thorough common
school education and entered the state
university, but was only able to remain
there one year. He was admitted to the
bar in 1858 at Corydon, Ind, and became
a successful lawyer; was elected to the
legislature in 1860, and in August, 1861.
became lieutenant colonel of the Thirty
eighth Indiana infantry. The follow
ing December he was made colonel of
the Fifty-third Indiana and served for
two years in that rank, making an ex-
ceptionally brilliant record, especially
in the campaigns of 1863 in Mississippi.
Fairhaven herald. [volume] (Fairhaven, Wash.) 1890-????, 1892-07-17

Aug. IL, 1868, he was commissioned
brigadier general, and while command
ing the Fourth division of General
Blair's corps before Atlanta he received
a wound which disabled him for year,
ending his service March 10, 1865, he
was brevetted major general for gal
lantry in the Atlanta campaign. He re-
sumed law practice, this time at New
Albany, Ind, and became a Republican
leader, but the Democratic majority in
that region was too much for him and
he was defeated in the race for congress.
Again, in 1881, he was an unsuccessful
candidate for United States senator.
Meanwhile President Grant had in 1869
appointed him federal judge for the dis
trict of Indiana.
In April, 1882, he was appointed post
master general in President Arthur's
cabinet, and in July, 1884, on the death
of Secretary Folger, he was transferred
TO the secretaryship of the treasury.
Finally he was in October, 1884, APP
pointed United States judge for the
Seventh judicial circuit, which Office he
still holds. In the preliminary contest
before the Republican national conven-
ton of 1888 southern Indiana and most
of Illinois supported Judge Gresham for
the nomination for president, but Gen
eral Harrison secured the state delega-
ton. Judge Gresham has always been
quite independent in politics, but not
very successful.

THE TALE OF THREE PAINTERS.


How They Got u Separate Compartme nt
on an English Train.
In his life of Charles Keene, Mr.. Lay
ard remarks that Keene was once stay
ing with a very famous painter, whose
country house was near Godalming.
Another painter was of the party, and
all three were going up to London by
an early train. They were discussing
over the breakfast table the probability
of getting room in the same carriage,
when Keene announced that he would
promise them compartment to them
selves. No guard was to be bribed, no
porter was TO be tempered with, no con-
sideration was to move from customer
to company-the thing was to be done,
and done silently. A bet was readily
made, for the feat to those who knew
Godalming traffic seemed an impossi-
bility. The three painters were early
at the station, before the customary pas
sengers arrived, and easily secured a
compartment.
Then Keene gave his instructions to
his friends. The brother artists painted
his face brown and yellow and red, and
muffled him in coats and gave him the
corner seat near the window. When
the other passengers arrived they avoid
ed that carriage. They were business
men, grave, solid, careful Of their COM
fort, men who had sons-in-law with
young families-they were not going to
travel with a patient in virulent small
pox. That at least was certain. And
on the way up dreadful idea occurred
to them; suppose that very night they
were to return in that very compart-
ment without knowing it. The thing
was too horrible. The guard was sent
for and instant action in the matter
claimed. And so the train was searched
for that fever stricken patient, and
every door was opened and every pas
senger scanned, but Charles Keene had
won his bet and washed his face.
