away back In the fifties. When he came to
Mansfield he was. SO old citizens tell me, a
tall. gaunt young fellow with a big head
sparkling blue eyes and a rather reserv ed
and aristocratic air. He had no money to
speak Of. but his brother had a good prac-
uce, and think he took John Into partner
ship. Their business was largely made up
of collections for New York and other east
ern firms, and this grew rapidly after the
future Senator's admission 10 the bar.
The result was that John Sherman began
to make money. He not only made it. but
ne saved and invested it. and at tho time
of his marriage he had already a start. He
began housekeeping in a comfortable home
on what is now known as Park avenue
west about a quarter OF mile from the
court house. and he lived there until he
bought his present estate, a nalf mile FUR

The Senator'S Home.
Mr. Sherman's house Is one Of many
rooms. all large. airy and. even in these
hot July days. deliciously cool. There are
many windows and these give magnificent
views. Here at Mansfield he can wander
about in the lightest attire. He wears an
old straw hat. light pantaloons. a black sack
coat. He rises early eats a light breakfast
and then sits down In his big library on
the ground floor. in his slippers and loosely
made clothes. and dictates answers to his
mail. He gets a large number of letters
daily, but he is used to dictation and he dis
poses Of them rapidly. After he has fin
ished his correspondence he walks about
the place. and after lunch usually goes
down town, sometimes in his carriage and
not infrequently in the cars. In the even

Mrs. Sherman and his daughter, Miss Mary,

Mr.. Herbert Lang, of Mineral, has
been in town the past few days,
the guest of George Reed. Mr..
Lang has long been engaged in the
smelling business and has, it is said,
discovered successful processes of
working rock which are known only
to him. In fact, he claims there is
no such thing as refractory ore, and
to make an assertion of that kind a
man must certainly have acquired
knowledge which is as yet hidden
from the general world. It's an open
secret that Mr.. Lang is looking up
towns along the Short Line with q
view to erecting smelter In the most
favorable location, it being rumored
also that he has a large contract te
work Seven Devils rock. If such i:
the case, Caldwell should strain every
nerve, make every effort to secure
the location of the smelter. AS ha!
been said in the columns of the Tri
bune before, the town that first Sc
cures an industry of this kind in thi
country of ore, will inevitably secure
everything else.

IL silver q Legal Tenderf

The above question was asked the
Denver News by . correspondent,
and the answer came as follows:
First-Silver is a legal tender for
any amount. The government can
pay it out for salaries, pensions, wag
ons, Indian annuities, interests on
the public debt, or the principal of
the debt itself, the same as gold.
The assertions of our correspondents
neighbor that silver is merely "token
money" is just the point at issue be-
tween free coinage men and gold
bugs. The gold-bugs insist on hav-
ing silver treated as token money;
the free coinage men insist on the
full recognition of the rights of silver
as money, as guaranteed by the law.
So far as quoting the law 1t is not
necessary, since the statement on the
back of the silver certificate is the
wording of the law, and if this is not
to be believed, the person who doubts
it had better send to Washington and
get a certified copy of the act
Second-The principal of the pub
lie debt is payable in coin; in fact
all the obligations of the government
of every kind, are payable in coin
About 1S69-if we mistake not the
year there was doubt on this point
aud Congress passed joint resolu
tion declaring the government bonds
payable in coin. The Interpretation
placed upon the word coin by ths
treasury department has always beer
gold coin. Silver men insist, ane
rightly, too, that coin means gold o.
silver coin. Hence the objection tt
