y Poor Man Sent on an Expensive and

A German, who declined to give his
name, complained to the police yester-
day that he had been sent to Carbondale
by an employment agent in this CITY
under false representations.
He claims that he was sent there to take
a situation at 81 10 per day and when he
applied TO the employer he was only
offered 81 so. He therefore returned TO
this city and sought to have the agent ar
rested and to recover from him the
amount he paid out for travelling ex-
penses.
As he had no contract to show. how
ever, there was nothing by which he
could make out a case, except his own
statement and a note written to the en-
ployer at Carbondale, and officials de-
clined to interfere in the matter.

European countries began the conference
under an erroneous impression as to the

been made clear that the purpose of this
country was not primarily to reap the
benefit of the enhanced price of silver.
and recent contributions to literature
on the subject, notably an article pub
lished by Professor Andrews, have made
it appear that the value of the entire sill
ver product is absolutely insignificant as

WASHINGTON, March 13.-The Treas
ury Department continues to receive
offers of gold from the West in exchange
for small notes, for which there is at
present an increasing demand. Several
offers had to be declined, as it was found
that the gold was of light weight, and
until those who offered it have made up
the deficiency in weight the Government
could not accept it. In this connection it
is interesting to note that the Govern

announcement was first made cheer
went up The first outbursts were sue
ceeded by an earnest application of ac-
ton. which found vent in shaking hands
and seneral congratulations OH all sides.
Nearly every man who was met on the
streets stopped TO reiterate the news and
shake hands with chuckle of pleasure
and pride. Tonight the enthusiasm found
expression in bontires, parades, firing of
anvil and cannons, and jollification
general, and brass bands paraded the
streets, followed by long lines of citizens
carrying transparencies and shouting
Justify at every step of the way.
Bontires blazed on almost every street
corner, and large numbers OF people in
residence districts added to the appear
ance ofjubilation by building large bon
fires in front of their residences. After
a parade of the streets the bands centered
at st. James Park, where a monster bon
fire was blazing, and there gathered a
crowd which shouted itself hoarse.

THREE IMPORTANT casts.


The decision Of the local land Office has
been reversed by the commissioner Of the
general land Office in the contest cases OF
Overheiser vs.. Walker, Rudkin VS.. CooI or
and Overheiser VS.. Spencer. These were
al desert land claims made under the
act Of March 5, 1877, and contested on the
grounds of Noncompliance with that law
and the law Of March 8. 1891. The
local Office held that the act OF March 3,
1901 accords to the entryman under the
former act the right to an additional year
on proof, within four years from fling,
that So per acre has been expended
and one-eighth OF the claim cultivated, as
required by the later act. This seems to
be the intent Of the statute, and was the
Interpretation OF it by the local officers.
The commissioner held that proof OF the
expenditure of IS per acre must be made
at the end OF the third year in the case Of
filings under the former act. It is the
first adjudication Of this question which
has come to the land Office here, and It is
understood that the cases will be taken
on appeal to the secretary Of the interior.

The abbreviated existence OF the reor-

also the fact that those who 80 enthusiast
ticaily championed the Inflated cause
have SO artistically lodged behind the
curtain OF public scorn as to make them
selves believe that they have concealed
their identity. Their incognito quietude,
however. will be painfully brief, for the

WHY HE CAME TO GRIEF.

II is not given to every man, whether
with brains or without them, to lead the
german, plan dinner, make a salad ard

er OF that swell segment OF humanit,
known as society. Many have aspired,
but only few have succeeded. Sine,
the publication Of his book there have
been imitators OF the only and nnap-
proachable McAlister in every small city,
and the land has been rent with the noist
OF their triumphs and defeats. One O
these despots Of the dance has come t.
grief in the little city OF Williamson,
Pa, noted for its lumber and its swelling
floods. His name was Travis and he
took cold poison. and therefore the book,
Of society will never again present hi,
name, for, as he sadly confessed, he ha
failed in his ambition to lead society. l.
appears, too, that his failure to reach tn.
goal Of his ambition was not due to an,
lack Of personal acceptability, but to tln
fact that he was persistently short Of
funds. and his Utmost being was "imbued
with the idea that it was a disgrace tc
work" This should not have led Ii,
rash youth to suicide, but it did. Their,
are lots Of young men in big towns VII,
cannot get rid Of that same idea and wis
manage to live quite cheerfnlly upon no
other income than their debts. Travis.
however, was made Of. gentler mould; 50
he took poison. Then. fearing it nigh
not work satisfactorily, he walked into
the river, but found his courage failing
when the cold water rose to his knees
He again sought the shore, and when the
music waxed loud and the merriment
rose at the grand entertainment at which
he was to shine as leader, his poor little
butterfly spirit took to itself wings and
flew out into the mysterious unknown.
Il is q pity. Snch man as he was
exactly calculated to adorn society as it
exists. II he had been possessed of mod
crate means and had come west be might
have at some future time We'd with Nc
Allister. But for q mans work in a
mans sphere the triHing little suicide
was no man at all. However, the strug-
Cling 400 in the city whence he departed
20 rashly should see that his grave is
kept green. Yet, had he met his death
from over-exertion at shoveling coal or
hoeing potatoes, in an effort to acquire
the coveted competency to enable him to
enjoy the idle fancy of a social director,
his graveftone could be more appropri-
ately epitaphed.
