There is characteristic story told of

back on the bed with a peaceful smile
he gave up the ghost.-New York Sun.

The Lottary to End.

It would appear by the following item
from recent issue of the New Orleans
Times-D Democrat that the suggestion in
several newspapers of late, that the
Louisiana State Lottery Company in
tends setting up business elsewhere, is
erroneous; that it will close up shop on
the expiration OF its present charter:
In view of the contradictory rumore
circulated regarding the intentions Of
the Louisiana State Lottery Company,
and in order to accurately answer mum
erous inquiries, q representative OF the
Times Democrat yesterday interviewed
Mr.. Paul Conrad, the president of the
company, With the result expressed be-
low:
Reporter-Mr. Conrad, it was asserted
some weeks ago in the Northern news
papers, and the statement has since
been revived recently, that the company
is about to remove to Nicaragua, and
there, under q government franchise,
open up the business on grander scale
than ever.
President Conrad-I have heard some
thing of this, but there is no foundation
for it. The company has officially stated
that it bows to the decision of the Su-
preme Court and will respect the laws.
Reporter Then you have no plans Of
future action?
President Conrad-I cannot state the
case more strongly than was done at the
time the company decided not to
attempt to obtain renewal of its char
ter. | can only repeat that the company
will continue in business until the ex-
piration Of its present charter and then
cease to exist. I cannot understand,
after all that has been said, why there
should be any confusion in the public
mind about the matter.
Reporter Have you any objection to
my stating this as finalty for the salts
faction Of the public?
President Conrad None whatever.
Reporter Some of the Eastern papers,
Mr.. Conrad, persistently assert that the
lottery company continues to use the
United States mails in the prosecution
Of its business; will you kindly tell me
If that is true'
President Conrad is utterly untrue.
We are obeying the law in it's letter and
spirit, and our agents everywhere are
instructed to obey 1t. We are using the
express companies only in our business,
and in all our circulars are printed in
structions to all persons dealing with Us

DAVID DUDLEY FIELD A HERO.
He Rebukes New York Swell for Striking

He Rebukes New York Swell for Striking
Little Street Urchin.
A queer looking little specimen of hu-
manity with an armful of newspapers
stood outside of the Grand Central depot
the other afternoon, crying his wares.
His hair was long and unkempt, his
trousers were frayed at the edges, there
were patches of poverty on his little
jacket, but his eye was clear, and his
tiattened nose showed that he was the
hero of many gutter battle.
A pompous looking individual, with
his coat thrown open, heavy cane in
his hand, and dressed in the height of
fashion, came swinging down the street
In gorgeous style. The boy pulled one
of his papers out, offered it to the swell,
and was rewarded for his efforts by a
thump on the back with heavy cane.
The little fellow howled with pain. The
cabmen who congregate at the depot
smiled and the other boys laughed in
derision.
| The swell had proceeded about three
steps on his way when firm hand
grasped him by the collar, shook him
vigorously, and an old man, six foot two,
as straight as a grenadier, and holding a
heavy malacca stick threateningly over
him, asked:
"How dare you hit boy7
The swell tried to shake himself loose,
but it was no use. The old mans hand
was firm, the crowd was growing larger
and the boy was bowling as though his
heart would break.
"You, sir" went on the old man, as
the blood mounted to his face, ''are a
disgrace to humanity. Old as / am,
can thrash you for that cowardly act.
And if | ever know you to again lift
your hand to boy will take the law
into my own hands"
The swell's head dropped little, and
his face was pale. The old man looked
him firmly in the eye, shook him again,
as cat would mouse, and walked on.
As he did SO the little boy, wiping the
tears from his cheeks. followed after and
thanked him. The old man patted him
affectionately on the head and disap-
peared in the crowd. There was no COM
ment except by the small boy. who ex-
claimed: "Ajn't he a daisyl'' He brushed
the tears from his eyes and in a moment
was as busy as ever selling his papers.
The old man was daisy. 1t was none
other than David Dudley Field, the
greatest constitutional lawyer in the
world, brother of Cyrus w. and Stephen
]. Field. He is nearly 83 years Of age
but as vigorous as man of so. In hi'
young days he was famous boxer and
athlete, and the way he tackled the howl
ing swell showed that his good right

A gTARTLING ADVENTURE.


The cowboys began to shoot the French
mans cattle wholesale and menaced his
herders when the latter were off duty.
Appeals to the sheriff proved useless; SO
finding himself in bad fix the Marquis
determined to take the matter into his
own hands and stop the matter himself.
He declared if he found man killing
his animals he would shoot the rascals
like he would steer. In six months he
was shot at by an unseen enemy no less
than eighteen times. His most bitter foes
were man named Mitchell and an old
buffalo hunter called Luffrey.
One day while riding over the prairie,
accompanied by one Of his most faithful
followers, man named Paddock, a bull
let whistled by his head, the smoke curl
ing from little bunch Of sage brush
about 200 yards in front. Without a
moments hesitation the marquis dug his
spurs into his horses fanks and dashed
head foremost directly toward the am
bush. The ringleader of the gang jumped
to his feet and leveled Winchester at
the marquis; but the latter like fash,
and while going at full speed, drew his
little silver mounted repeater, and the
would be assassin fell in his tracks, to
rise no more.
Another of the band was badly wound
ed, and the rest quickly leaping to their
horses, sought safety in fight. The
Frenchman was very popular after this
little incident, for his craftsmanship in.
stilled great deal of respect into the
minds Of the bloodthirsty herders, and
there was peace in the Bad Lands from
that time thenceforth. Nevertheless, he
had three trials before justices Of the
peace for the so-called offense, and was
three times acquitted; yet he was again
indicted by Dakota jury for murder,
and languished in the Bismarck Jail
many days before he finally gained his
| freedom.
