HOW PATRICK HENRY BECAME A
LAWYER

Blue and Gray: During this year
of seeming idleness, young Henry
conceived the idea OF becoming law
yer Digging in the soil would not
yield him a livelihood; drawing mo-
lasses and measuring tape had pro
duced the same barren result. But
words never failed him. He could
move or melt any audience before
whom he might stand. Therefore, he
determined to earn his living by his
tongue.
The wonderful mental capacity of
this broken down farmer and merchant
may be understood when we learn
that after a very few weeks of reading
and study, he presented himself at
Williamsburg before the examiners,
and was admitted to the bar. Not,
however, without much urging and
entreaty, for the examiners soon dis
covered the paucity of his knowledge
of the forms and technicalities. young
Henry pleaded his own case-so well
that lie received his license, not at all
because of his legal proficiency, but
solely because of his ingenuity and
the promise he gave of future useful
ness. One of the examiners, Mr.. John
Randolph, was SO much shocked by
the uncouth appearance of the man
that he at first refused to examine
him. But he shortly discovered that
the candidate was a diamond in the
rough, and, after snbjecting him to a
most severe series of subtle and lntri-
cate queries, he was forced to remark
''Ar. Henry, if your industry be only
half yonr genius, | augur that you
will 90 we'll and become an ornament
and an honor to your profession

CATTLEMEN AND RUSTLERS.

San Francisco Chonicle: Buck Tay-
lor, the noted western cattleman and
hToGch0 rider, gives lively picture of
the condition of the cattleman in wv
omlng, and tells some graphic things
IN connection with the recent ending
Of the war with the sO-called ''rustlers.;' .
! Taylor has arrived here from Rawlins.
/ where for some years past he has been
! III the cattle business. The war, he
says, has ended in a curious way.
1t has come to a close" he said last
night, land the trial of the cattlemen
has proved farce, merely because
JurorsI sufficient to try the case
could not be got. In the war the cat
tie owners were wrong and the social
ed rustlers were right. The latter
were not rustIers at all. They we're
simply cowboys, who had been black
listed for one thing or another often
slve to the rich men, and they could
not get employment anywhere on the
ranches.
80 they started little ranches of
their own and began to raise a few
cattle and 10 farm in some instances.
The rich cattlemen did not want to
see the country fenced up. They
wanted 1t all open and uninterrupted
for themselves. Therefore they made
war on the cowboys, who had former
ly worked for them, and whom they
called rustlers.
They followed them, attacked
them, and killed two of them, and
then the cowboy forces turned in and
conquered the others. The cowboys
got forty six of the cattle owners hem
med iii and imprisoned, and captured
their wagons containing dynamite and
poison. These terrible weapons of
destruction the rich men were going
10 Use. Well, when the cowboys cap
tured them and got possession of their
own medicine, they were just about
. give them a dose of dynamite,
when. of a sudden the government
troops arrived.
Il was in the stage going to Raw
Inns few days after and met Judge
Brown, who had been engaged to
defend The rich cattlemen, and asked
him what he thought of what the cat
tiemen had done. He said that it was
an outrage, but that he would get
them all of. He knew a waysto do it.
But III doing it he said he would not
attempt to excuse them, that is, to me.
Well, the way he had in view for get
ting them off was first to get permis-
sion to have them all tried together
In this he was successful, and then he
started in to get jury. Well, there
were forty six men, and each one be-
ing allowed SO many challenges, per
emptory and otherwise, it was found
before they got along very far that
there was not enough men in all the
country to try the cattlemen. More
over the people found that it would
totally bankrupt the county to carry
the case on. This was due to the
shrewd way in which the case was
manipulated
80 the whole matter has just end
ed. 1t was farce from beginning to
end"

REPAIRING AN OCEAN CABLE.
How the Parted Ends Are Traced and
Then Joined Again.

1t has ALWAYS been Il matter of spec
ulation and wonder 10 most people as
to how marine cable once broken in
midOcean is ever got together again.
The explanation, says the New Orleans
Times Democrat, is this: First, it must
be known that the cable practically
rests everywhere on the bottom of the
sea. OF course there are places where
sudden deep places coming between
shallow ones will cause the cable to
make a span as over a raylne or gully.
In other places the ocean is so deep
that the cable finds its specific gravity
somewhere i'll mid-water, so to speak.
In That case it rests quite rs firmly as
if it were on solid ground
When break occurs the first step,
of course, is TO accurately locate its
position. A conductor. such as n ca
bic, offers certain amount Of obstruc-
ton or resistance" TO the passage of
an electric current. Apparatus has
been devised for the measuring of this
resistance. The unit of resistance
is called an ohm. The resistance of
the average cable is, roughly speak
inc, three Ohms per nautical mile. Re-
sistance practically ceases at the point
where the conductors make consider
able contact with the water. There
fore, it, when measuring TO locate a
break, it be found that the measuring
apparatus indicates 4 resistance of 900
ohms, the position of the fault will be
known to be 800 miles from shore.
With this information the captain of
the repairing ship is able to determine
by his charts of the course of the cable,
the latitude and longitude of the spot
where the break occurred, and can
proceed with certainty TO effect the
repair. When the approximate neigh
borhood Of the track is reached a
grapnel is dropped overheard and the
vessel steams slowly in a course at
right angles to the run of the cable.
On the deck of the ship there is ma
chine called a dynometer, which, as
its name implies, is used TO measure
resistance. The rope securing the
grapnel passes under this. If the dy-
nometer records steady increase of
strain it indicates that the grapnel has
caught the cable. If, on the other
hand, the resistance varies from moth
ing to tons and from tons TO nothing
again, it is known that the grapnel is
only engaging rocks or other projec-
tions of an uneven bottom. 1t is fire.
quently necessary to drag over such a
ground several times before the cable
can be secured.
Having secured one end of a parted
cable, the vessel mOOrS it to n buoy
and proceeds to search for the other
end Whom hoi n enIS arn hrOuubt to-
gether on deck, the electrician holds
communication with the shore on both
sides to make sure that there are no
other defective places and that the ca
bic is perfect in both directions. This
having been satisfactorily determined,
all that remains is TO splice the ends
together and drop the cable once more
back into the sea.

lines. IT Is q fact, nevertheless. that
there IS an island in the Gulf of Cali

the Mexican mainland. which is in

was made by West Coast naturalist
early in 1891. and has since been con-

ways had a liking for geological re
search, and indulged in it for many
years IN investigating the bottom of

fed me that the bottom of the lake is

many of them crater-ike. Some of
these are 100 feet in diameter. These
craters. as | believe them to be. lie al
different depths, or. rather, tneir rails

Their depths are fathomless. They
have undoubtedly become the recep
tacles of the bodies of the hundreds of
people who are known to have been
drowned in the lake since that coun-
try was settled and of the undoubted
thousands of people killed in the fierce
battles that were frequently waged on
the shores of the lake between hostile
tribes of aboriginal warriors during
the centuries preceding the coming of
the white man"
