a Patent Lawyer.

Detroit Free Press.
A lawyer who makes a speciality
OF patent business, no matter lust
where his office is located, was called
to the further West in a case involv-
ing mortgage on a farm. The pre-
Ilminary hearing was before an old
fashioned justice of the peace, who
had no high regard for the ways of
men from the city. AT some point
in the case, the magistrate put in a
few remarks, and the visiting law
yer collided with him. The discus
sion grew warm, and at last the
magistrate, forgetting his dignity
and his position, became personal.
"Who are you, anyway" he
blurted out.

an attorney"
"Praps you are, but never heard
one talk like you do. What kind of

said, slowly, that when the patent
expires, L don't believe you can ever
get it renewed again."

better since then. In fact, I went to

You never know when you'll be

resign by reason of continued sea-
sickness, but men remain year after
year in the service and are seasick
much of the time when the ship is
under way. Others are seasick in
every storm, and still others when
their own physical condition is pecu-
liar. There is this popularity about
seasickness. 1 expect that it is sell

SANDERS PLEA.

Mr. Sander made a strong argument
In favor of the passage of the bill and
Mr.. Scofield endeavored to pour oil on
the troubled waters by suggesting the
amendment of the measure. He COM
pared the work of the House of the
Good Shepherd to that of the good
Samaritan, but the house did not take
kindly to either his suggestion or COM
passion.
Mr. Lockwood thought the proper
place for these women was at the re-
form school, where proper provision
could easily be made for their care.
Mr.. Dale was strongly in favor of the
bill and insisted that so long as the
peoples money paid for the mainte-
nance of these institutions they
should have the right to know just
what was done within their gates. He
believed the proper way was to keep
all charitable and correctional insti-
tutions under state control.
Mr.. Gerlaeh made a final attempt to
stem the tide and told of the benefit
the House of the Good Shepherd had
been to humanity, and especially to
the weak and unfortunate women.
The house was not in a mood to be
swerved, however, and the bill was
recommended for passage by a large

GaYe up His Charge.

MEMPHIS, Tenn, July 1.-Rev.
John A. Brooks, who has been pastor
of the large and influential Christian
church here for more than two years,
gave up the charge yesterday and left
for Kentucky, where he will engage
in evangelical work. The course was
entirely out of the ordinary and was
not clearly intimated by the pastor in
his farewell talk on Sunday. 1t de-
veloped that it was due to the persist
auce of several women of his flock,
leaders in society, in playing progress
sive euchre and similar games where
prizes were contended for.
After exhausting his power of per-
suasion and Christian counsel, DR..
Brooks announced to them that their
social practices must cease or he would
resign. The issue was made and his
resignation was accepted. The same
issue is said to have caused his predc-
cessor to give up the pastorate.

when first cleared, if not better.
The church that Mr.. Martin speaks
of as the resting place on the night
before the fight is Wesley Chapel, a
Aourishing Methodist Church. 1t is
still standing just as it stood upon the
night spoken of, and from there we
can follow his march toward Decatur,
along the Flat Shoals road, till arriv-
ing at the farm of Mr.. Elijah Webb,
where he turned to the left" and
the fight was soon begun. Here Mr..
Martin mentions that "Sherman's
wagons were over in the field being
loaded with corn" I mention this
because a big hearted Indianian was
one of the first to forward his nickel
to the call of my previous letter, and
to Mr.. Hemphill he took issue with
my having said that the foragers from
Sherman's army were taking every
thing they could lay hands upon. This
writer stated that he was in the fight
"a Lieutenant in an Indiana regiment
and, good naturedly, defends his
eide from the charge of taking every
thing" 1 never thought Of taking
any notice of this writer at the time
and have not the letter to give his
name and command, but [ can tell
him that when I mentioned what he
had written to Mr.. Hemphill to good
| old lady of our settlement she said:
"God bless you, I have the very
| washpot now that I found down in
the branch full of well-cooked shoat,
after the fight. The yankees had
killed hog, taken washpot from
some one and were cooking the meat
when our boys came up. They left
the pot and meat and it was well cook
ed when I found it. We eat the
meat and was glad to get it, and there
is the pot out there in the yard
If the Indiana Lieutenant comes
down to the exposition I will show
him this washpot, for the good old
lady above declares that he is the
very fellow that was cooking the
meat, and if he will come she will fill
it full and we will eat from it in peace
and with thankful hearts that we can
laugh together over the incidents of
those days and can sigh together over
she graves Of those who fell.
X
Of course all our hearts went out to
our Governor in his late suffering, but
now that the fear of his death is pass
ing away there is no harm in telling
the effect that his sickness had in our
settlement. Not one of US puts
plum, cherry, or anything with
seed, to our mouths but what our
thoughts run to the consequence Of
swallowing seed. Heretofore, water,
melon seed or any other seed sli ipped
down our throats without thought OF
harm; now We will not eat dewberries
without straining. Brown has i'm
pressed his folks that it is not so
much in the swallowing Of seed as.it
is in stuAing ones self SO full of eat
ing. A boy of his that has never
stopped meal under five or six bis
cults, and other things in proportion,
cannot be persuaded to eat over one
and half now. Surely it is bad
wind that blows nobody good.

Fishes With His Hands.

LAwRENcEBuRa, Ind, June 25.-
Capt. Whitcomb, conductor on the
B. and O. S. W. Railroad, and party
of railroad friends were fishing last
week in the waters Of Big Greek. The
railroad party proved little slow in
catching fish, and were considering
the advisability of moving their camp,
when John Conway, Of Dilsboro, call
ed on them, and assured them that
down in the depths of the still and
dark waters there was an abundance
of the desired game, and he would
prove it to them. The water was from
twelve to twenty feet deep at that
point, and as placid as pond.
Stripping off his clothes Conway as
tonished the two dozen spectators by
diving to the bottom of the silent wa
ters, and after some moments Of sus-
pense, when the men upon the bank
had begun to get alarmed at his pro-
longed absence, he arose to the surface
spouting like ayoung whale, and hold
ing in each hand a fish weighing sew
eral pounds. After a breathing spell
he again descended to the rayless
depths of the dark stream, and again
returned with a couple of fish. Nine
times this norman repeated the trick,
and in the space of an hour came
swimming to the shore with one or two
fish at time until he caught fourteen
the combined weight of which amount
ed to twenty-one pounds.
His feat was considered remarka-
BILE one by the railroaders, who had
never heard of the wonderful perform
ance before. But there are hundreds
of persons who can attest to the abili-
ty of Conway to catch fish in the man
ner described. Many persons have
seen him achieve greater success in
that direction than he did last Friday.
Parties of would-be fishermen, after
failing to catch any of the fnny tribe
in the usual way with hook and line
and net, on hearing Of this Hoosier' 8
success in his peculiar style have paid
him handsomely to drag from the bot
tom of the creek or pond the reluctant
fish.
His reputation as a successful and
scientific catcher of the scaly backed
game by his unique method is known
to all who frequent the water Of these
inland lakes and creeks. Conway is
about 40 years of age, and spends al
most as much time on the water and
in the water as he docs on land. He
has studied all his life the nature and
habits of the fish that inhabit the wa
ters with which he is familiar, and
knows where and how to find them.
He never uses seine nor line, but
plun.e es into the water, feels under
the rocks at the bottom of the stream
or in the crevices at the base of their
banks, and with his long, bony fingers
pulls them from their hiding places
He says that when not more than 4
years of age his father taught him to
swim and frolic in the water, and gave
him instructions how to catch fish in
the manner the Indians had done long
before the white man came with bait
ed hook and line to tempt them to
their destruction. Some of Conway's
feats would appear incredible unless
witnessed by the doubling ones.

Ambassador Bayard's prominence at

ton of Mr.. Blaine's estimate of him as
given in the latter's Twenty Years of
Congress- People who have wondered
that a man. of Mr.. Bayard's long expert
enoe and reputed ability should have been
guilty of such improprieties as are found
in several of his speeches in England
since he has bean ambassador will find
a good explanation in Mr.. Blaine's pen
picture, which shows that Mr.. Bayard
has had the fortune to be very much
oyerestimated both as regards his natural
ability and his requirements This is
what Mr.. Blaine says for him:
Thomas E. Bayard. who entered the
Senate at the opening of the Forty first
Congress, was little known to the public,
except as a member of a family which
had been for considerable period promi-
nent in political affairs Of Delaware His
service in the Senate has been remark
able for one leading characteristic-the
J,ower, or the accidental fortune, to Gre
ate public impression as to his career
