CONCLUDED.

Famous section Thirty" Case Before
Land Com missioner Lamoreaux.
WASHINGTON. July 26. The oral ar
gument in the famous Section Thirty
case was concluded before Commission
er Lamoreaux during the afternoon.
Thirty days will be allowed the attor-
neys in which to file briefs, and then
the matter will be taken up and decided
by the commissioner. The land in con-
test is located near Ely, and is supposed
to contain the most valuable iron mine
In the United States. So far the valua.
ton that has been placed upon it is
speculative, but it is either worth mil
lions or a very small amount. 1t was
first located with Sioux half breed
scrip, in June, 1888, by F. W. Eaton.
In October. 1884, Thomas w. Hyde and
Angus Mcdonald contested this entry.
This contest reached the secretary OF
the interior In 1889, and on Feb. 10,
Secretary Villas
Rejected the Application
OF Hyde and Mcdonald at the same
time that he ruled out the Sioux scrip
entry declaring that the land was again
open TO settlement. This decision de.
prived Hyde and Mcdonald Of their
preferred right to enter the land. This
was because OF a contract with their at-
torneys. Hyde and Mcdonald promptly
made an application for q rehearing
which was finally granted by Secretary
Noble in 1891.
Meantime as soon as the decision OF
Secretary Villas was made known there
was . wild rush at the Duluth Office by
Q number of parties, among them Emil
Hartman. the Bishot Iron company and
several others. OF these Hartman
seems to be rather ahead. However,
before the decision of Secretary Villas
had been made known to the Duluth
officials and
Before the Land Was Open
on the books there an entry was offered
by Alden and James, the representa-
tives OF tn. Minnesota Iron company
and IT was in their favor that Register
Nichols rendered his decision at the
close OF the ~rehearing ordering in 1891,
n which ended in March. 1892. The
evidence sent on by Register Nichols

Kindness Remembered.

from DCnQOn truth
1t appears that an elderly gentleman from
the Midland counties travelled mp to London in
the spring Of 1888 for the purpose of watching
the debutantes on their way for presentation at
Buckingham Palace. Being seized in the
course of the afternoon with sudden faintness
he was charitably assisted by lady who hap
pened to be standing by him at the time. He
has now died and has bequeathed ESQ 900 to
the stranger who came to his rescue in this
momentary illness.
Sensational gratitude is by no means so I'M
common as most Of US fancy. Many years ago
a now well-known tradesman started business
first customer was a doctor. and while showing
ness Of the moment, he let 1t drop. when it was
shattered instantly into Thousand pieces.
Very good naturally the doctor took the blame
upon himself paid for the broken article and
made one or two trihing purchases besides.
In due course this tradesman accumulated a
large fortune. when, calling upon his first Gus
toner. he reminded him of the incident, and
in recognition of his generosity, settled q thou
sand year upon him for life.
Strangely enough there lives only q short dis
tance higher up IN the same street another
wealthy tradesInan who owes the origin Of his
success to q very similar accident. This man
commenced life GRAND boy. and while
driving down Hobo-n in an omnibus one pour
Ing wet day he surrendered his seat to an old
lady who would otherwise not have found &C.
commodation In recognition Of this act Of
courtesy she presently set him up in business
on his own ccOunt and at her death beq1eathed
to him the whole of her very considerable
fortune.

A Child's Philosophy.

''Speli toes" said the mother, who was teach

Then, in order to enforce this proposition, the
mother called on her daughter to spell froze

'No, you're wrong again This time we do

TIE FAREWELL
why Mr.. Depew Doesn't Walk Now.

From the New York Times
Until this winter Chsuncey NJ. Dcpew has
made it q practice to walk home from the
numerous dinners no is called on to attend He
always found It, he said. an aid to digestion
and famous inducer to sound sleep to walk
home in the, quiet night after public banquet
and the attendant excitement. Now he rides
The reason for the change in practice he told q
few nights ego to q newspaper man who had
waited for him an hour in the soft rays Of the
triple gas Jets on one Of the twin posts that
guard the approach to his house in West saith
street The mercury was IL degrees below
zero, and when Mr.. Depew drove up q few
minutes after midnight the newspaper man
stepped up somewhat briskly as he started up
the steps to ask for a moments conversation.
In Mr.. Depew's library. before waiting TO hear
what he was wanted to talk about, Mr.. Depew
remarked on the pertinacity with which habits
of early life stuck to US we grew older
Having been brought up in the country, he had
naturally walked great deal when young and
the habit had remained with him when older.
Thus he had naturally taken to walking home at
all hours of the night, with never a thought Of
garroting or any of the bugbears attendant ON
late walks that occasionally are brought into
unpleasant Promnsnce in big city. "But
this winter, said he, 80 many men began to
step up to me in the street that l grew little
nervous. They all knew my name. Now, it is
q bit startling when a man is walking through
a quiet street at dead Of night. to have a man
whom he has not noticed approach, suddenly
appear in front of him and wake him out Of his
revere by brisk good evening or q request
for nights lodging / haven't had any one
make a more serious demand than for q nights
lodging. but began to think that a more I'M
pleasant demand might be made some time,
and the result was that l abandoned my late
walks, and now / ALWAYS ride home"
II hope 1 didn't startle you by appearing
suddenly at the foot of your steps" said the
newspaper man. thinking that possibly the
genial railroad president intended him to make
a slight personal application of the story. NO."
replied Mr.. Depew; mo, but still it is startling
you must confess, to have a man suddenly pop
up in front Of you late at night, even if he does
no more than sccost you by name"

The Headsman House Hunting.

From the London Daily News.
II. Deibler, the fred man." the "executioner
of nigh works" whose fate it is to be abhorred
for performing that which the majority of
people would regard as . needful function in
the state, seems at last to have found place
wherein to lay his head at night. After COM
promising for 2,000f the dispute with the land
lord who let him apartments without knowing
who he was and who, when he found out, re-
fused to stand by his bargain, NJ. Deibler went
roaming about in quest Of rooms, but was
everywhere shown the door directly he pro-
duced his card.
1t was seriously proposed that he should be
lodged at the expense of the government at the
prefecture OF police on the Quay, but somehow
the officials contrived to prevent this, possibly
from fear of anarchist threats directed against
the man who was instrumental IN putting an
end to the existence Of the late unlamented
Ravachol. At length the wanderer determined
that he would buy house of his own, and this
he has accordingly DONE
His newly acquired residence is situated at
Auteuil, the pretty suburban place on the banks
OF the Seine. famous for its race course,
its numerous boarding schools and its
cheap open-air restaurants by the waterside,
whittier the humber classes of Parisians resort
on Sunday to eat 'matelotte" and "friture'-
boiled and fried fresh-water fish.

SO that the games can be started and the series

The billiards committee will be appointed to-

Under the direction of Mr.. Sherman. the
pool expert now in charge of the billiard
rooms. the interest in pool and billiards has in
creased to a remarkable extent and all tables
are going at all times and many good players
are being developed by Sherman, who has the
happy knack Of imparting the knowledge
which many men need to bring out points in
playing which they were personally unable to
acquire.

Crossley is much pleased at his success in

to see the interest taken in this department
The afternoon classes from 4:45 to S:l5 have
an averge attendance Of thirty-fve members

beginning Of the season was that during the

many cases does the individuals more harm

better, therefore, for the members to 60 into
