But After Being Cared He Couldn't Even
Bear the Ticking OF Il Watch.
A well-iznown physician recently told
the following story to an Indianapolis
Sentinel reporter:
"A prominent Marion county farmer
discovered that he was gradually get
ting deaf. He couldn't hear the hired
man blast stumps with giant powder.
He came to my office and made signs
that he wanted his ears examined. /
examined them, and in an instant, al
most. found that his defective hearing
was caused by the gathering of a waXy
substance in the ears. When | re-
moved that obstruction of the hearing
! was surprised at the result The old
gentleman jumped from the chair
where he had been seated and put both
hands to his ears. He couldn't stand
the noise from the street and the least
sound startled him He was one of the
most pleased men ] ever saw. Ec went
away and it was several weeks before
saw him again. lie called at the office
with his wife and she did all the talk
ing. She hardly raised her voice above
whisper and every now and then she
looked n l.c" husband in n ti.ril way.
She sal ti.at for several DAYS he would
not allow the least bit of noise in the
house, and that he hUtciAered some
pigs before thcir time because Of being
affected bv their squcal His daughter
and her husband had lived with them
for two years and they had to leave on
account of the crying of their six
months-old baby There were two
clocks in the house: one in the dining
room and one in the bedroom These he
stopped OH account Of the ticking The
clock in the bedroom was an alarm
clock. 1t went off one night. He
jumped from bed and nearly broke his
neck hy falling head first on the floor.
The woman said that she had to keep
the house as quiet as d country grave
yard for more than two weeks, for it
was that long before her husband be-
came accustomed to hearing. His
daughter. however, has gone back to
the farm with her baby, and the clocks

Postmaster General Bissell has found
q man in the postal service whose eX-
pericnce has interested him SO greatly
that he contemplates making use of
recent letter written by this man in
preparing his annual report, says
writer in the New York Times. w. III.
Wallace, ST., postmaster at Hammonds-
vile, o., now eighty-two years of age,
wrote two fair pages of letter paper
recently without noticeable error OF
composition and in good, firm hand, to
give the secretary his experience in
brief. He has been sixtyfour years in
the postal service, having held Office
under thirty postmaster generals. He
began when he was still a boy, and has
been the postmaster at Hammondsville
many years. When he was first post
master, and the charge for letters was
twenty-five cents for four hundred
miles or over, he had taken two bush
els of oats, or two bushels of potatoes,
or five dozen of eggs, or four pounds of
butter, or two-thirds of a bushel of
wheat, Or one and one-third pounds of
common wool as a fair compensation
in kind fer the postage. The postage
on thirty-twe such letters, he says,
would be about equivalent to the
price of good milch cow The post
masters were expected to look out that
letters were written on one sheet of pa
per; if they were on two sheets the
postage was to be double. Mr.. Wal
lace gives some entertaining accounts
of his many long trips over the noun
tains before the railroads were con-
structed, indicating that he was
travelled man many years before there
was much travelling between the east
and the west. That he is a pretty
capable citizen at his age is plain from
the fact that, besides being postmaster,
he is the station agent for the Penn
sylvania railroad at Hammondsville.

The Rupee and the Railway.

The last annual report of the Indian
railway administration shows that in
India there are only 1880 miles OF
railway laid down and 10000 sane
toned. Since 1886 the yearly addition
to the mileage has been dropping stead
lily. Then it was 1000 per annum. For
the next four years there was steady
average of 900. In 1891 it sank to 600
miles. This year it is only 42S The

ing rupee, can do nothing or next to
nothing more, though the takings are

WEBSTER'S LEGAL EARNINGS.
A Little Leather-Covered Book That Gives
His Receipts.


One of our correspondents has been
so lucky as to fall in with a little
leather-covered book, like those of
bank depositors, which contains Dan
iel Webster's autograph record of his
legal receipts. This chronicle, says
the New York Evening Post, fills TWEEN
ty-eight pages and extends a little
more than from 1888 to 1886, inclusive.
The first entry, dated September in
the former year, is of $50, and the
second is of $50, for retainers on the
New Hampshire circuit. The first fee
of $1,000 was paid in May, 1894, by a
Mrs. Badger. Services regarding Gil
ley's will commanded $500. The total
amount for the first year was footed up
as $13, 40, with the remark: "Septem-
Der 90, 1884, thus done and concluded"
A similar summing up appears at the
close of each other year. The second
total is SIS, 1874; the third is $21, 1893.
The first entry of $4,000 was in 1885,
March z; the first of 5000 December
in the same year. The last payment
was in respect to Florida land. The
largest single honorarium was $500.
In February of the fourth year $1,000 is
set down as bestowed in a case of Trim
ity church New York;. In turning over
this record leading metropolitan and
even provincial lawyers are astonished
that Webster, already twenty years in
Boston, so undervalued his services.
He learned better at last. When Rob-
ert c. Winthrop looked up the earliest
date he said: That's just the time l
was ending my studies in Webster's
Office" and the chirograph led him to
add that Webster never wrote firm
hand. Nobody has surveyed the relic
with more interest than DIR. 0. w.
Holmes. Among other things he said:
Had the influx been ten-fold. Web
ster's purse would have remained
empty still. Had its capacity received
like the sea, whatever entered there
would have run off like. water from the
back of a duck"

CONFEDERATES IN CONGRESS.
Only Twelve Men to Be Found In Both
Branches-Passing Away.

Misunderstanding Away.
The men who enjoyed prominence in
the military and civil service of the
confederacy are rapidly passing from
the arena of national politics, says-the
Augusta Chronicle. Below is a record
of such as are still in active life at
Washington: The senior United States
senator from Alabama, joint. Nor
gan, was brigadier general in the
confederate army; and her other sena-
tor, James L. Pugh, was member of
the confederate congress. Joseph
Wheeler, who attained the rank Of
lieutenant general in the confederate
service, has for twelve years been the
representative in congress from the
Eighth Alabama district. The senior
senator from Georgia, John B. Gordon,
was likewise a lieutenant general in
the army of the comic 'leracy. Edward
G. Walthall, of Mississippi, major
general in the confederate service, and
of late the junior United States senator
from his native state, while not now in
active politics, having resigned for the
balance of his present term in the up
per house, has been elected for and is
confidently expected to take his seat in
that honorable body in March, 1895.
The senior United States senator from
Missouri, Francis M. Cockrell, was a
brigadier general in the confederate
army: and the other senator from that
commonwealth, George G. Vest, held
positions in both houses of the confed-
crate congress. The present senior
United States senators from both North
and South Carolina, Matt w. Ransom
and M. c. Butler, were major generals
IN the confederate service. The repre-
sentatives from Tennessee in the upper
house of congress are Isham G.. Harris,
the senior, and William 3. Bate, who
is the junior senator from that COM
monwealth. The first mentioned was
q war governor of his native state and
the last named was major general in
the confederate army. And lastly,
Eppa Hunton, who saw service as brig
adler general in the confederate army,
at present occupies the position of
junior senator from Virginia in the
congress of the United States Thus
do we perceive that of the multitude of
those who distinguished themselves in
the military and civil annals of the
confederacy only twelve remain in ma
tiOnal halls.
