"Clients love hard fighter, and the
onlookers are impressed with his zeal, !"
says Richard d. Doyle in an article on
claw and Lawyers" in The Southern
Magazine In my own experience /
have had cases where ! advised my eli
ents not to sue because I was sure they
had no chance, and although they fol-
lowed my advice, instead Of employing
other counsel, they refused to pay a
reasonable fee and in one case left me
to pay the court costs. And have sell
dom advised client to compromise or
submit to arbitration that did not dis
please him. 1t requires moral courage
to advise one against his inclinations
but it is sometimes lawyers sacred
duty. Whatever may be said as to its
morality or true wisdom, yet l must
say regard this aggressive and partisan
spirit more conducive to modern success
than profound Judgment, for / have
seen lawyers succeed chiefly by reason
of it in whom the logical faculty was
not at all conspicuous. In speaking Of
success, it will be observed that do not
mean the eminence of such men as Err
skine, Writ, Webster, William Pinckney,
Rufus Choate and Charles O'Conor, but
such success as is attained by the lead
ing members of the bar in every town
or city of the United States, who have
q good practice, sometimes very luora-
tive, though they are unknown to fame
and forgotten outside their neighborhood
when they are gone. -

Slept twenty Years In a CONN.

1t is seldom that man dies in cof-
fin, but that is exactly what old Barney
Frickers of Alliance, O., did when he
finally gave up the ghost in the fall Of
1890. For more than 30 years old Bar
ney had been haunted with the idea that
he was ON the verge of the grave. Ev-
cry evening he declared that he would
never again see the sun rise. He con-
stantly brooded over his queer halluci-
nation and never allowed himself to go
to sleep without being carefully pre-
pared for death and burial. Every night
he robed himself in his grave clothes
and solemnly laid down in his coffin
and passed the night firmly believing
and probably hoping that for him the
day would never dawn again. Finally
death came; but, grim and sly as he
was, he did not find old Barney unpre-
pared. The coffin in which this queer
old character had SO often awakened
disappointed was of his own make and
was said to have been curiosity in it.

kinds, patterns and sizes of allegorical

HEROIC ACT OF A SOCIETY GIRL.
BRAVES the Shame of Patrol Wagon Ride
to Please Little Boy.

BRAVES the Shame of a Patrol Wagon Ride
to Please Little Boy.
She was not only herself member
of that society which considers itself
entitled to capital letter, but her fam
lily had been members thereof in good
and regular standing for at least three
generations. She was shopping ON State
street one bright midsummer morning
when crowd at Washington street at
tracted her attention. Being curious,
she investigated that crowd. She found
in the center thereof a small boy sob
bling bitterly under the guardianship
of two big policemen. To her horror,
she recognized in the small boy her cous-
ms little son.
The little fellow had slipped and
broken or sprained his ankle. he knew
where he lived, but he could not get
there. The policemen had sent for the
patrol wagon, the only vehicle at their
command, for the little sufferer
The child was in perfect agony at the
prospect of being carried off in a patrol
wagon by two policemen. The society
girl interfered. She told the policemen
this was her nephew. She told them
where he lived. The address CORE
sponded to that which the little fellow
had himself given them.
"I'll get a cab and take him home, !"
said the society girl, a reasonable sug-
gestion enough, surely, but the police
men would not hear to that. They had
sent for the patrol wagon, and some one
must have ride in it. 1t was not to be
ordered out for nothing. They could not
let the child go home in cab. "We'n
take him where you say he lives, lady,
but he must go with us. -
The patrol wagon came. The child
was almost convulsed with terror. He
implored the society girl not to let the
policemen take him. The policemen
were obdurate. Finally the society girl
gave up. "Well," she said, ''if he must
go home in patrol wagon, I'll go
home in it too. So they lifted the
small boy in, and the society girl climb
ed in after him, and the policemen
mounted guard on each side.
And thus it happened the few society
people who were by chance shopping on
that midsummer morning instead of en-
joying the country breezes Of the sum-
mer cottages were Mortified at seeing
daughter of one of their first families
rolling swiftly by in patrol wagon
under the charge of two stalwart police
men. And others who were not society
people wondered what "that nice, re-
spectacle looking girl" could have done
that the police were taking her away.
And they moralized on the deceptive
ness of appearances. Chicago Tribune.

Rats In the Thames.

A strange sight was seen in London
at the great fire in the grain warehouses
near Blackfriars' bridge. AS the build
ings, which were ON the waters edge,
were burning black mass was seen in
the river floating from the Surrey to the
Middlesex side. 1t was composed of
thousands of rats, cut off from escape on
the land side. About 10000 of them
succeeded in crossing the river, but were
then unable to get up the smooth side
of the Thames embankment and were
carried down stream and drowned.

NEWS FROM THE OIL FIELDS
The Industry Rapidly Becoming More
Widely Known
II Receives Favorable and Extensive Notice
Through the Northern Press-Work Of
the Exchange Committee

That the outside world is beginning to
know something about the oil industry
of Los Angeles is shown by the wav in
which the San Francisco papers have
been writing it up. A descriptive article
appeared IN recent issue Of the Call,
and other journals have, since the visit
of the eXcannge committee to the nolth,
awakened to the fact that we have oil
here and in great quantities. 1t is graft
flying to know that what promises to be
very substantial industry is receiving
recognition from the outside. That 1t is
favorably recognized offers the assurance
that it " i'll not be long until demand
will be created for Los Angeles oil which
will tax the productive capabilities OF
our wells and warrant wide enxtension
OF the field.
Oil men are anxiousiy awaiting the re-
port of the exchange committee which is
gathering figures from the field. No fur
ther reportihns been gwen by that body, &,
but they are still at work among the
wells. They find it more difficult to get
the complete report for which they are
laboring, than was expected it would be.
The talk of forming a company fol
among local capitalists. has aroused some
hopeful interest on the part Of prod ucers.
1t is probable that the conservative busi-
ness men Of this locality. when they have
been convinced of the stability of the
industry. will step ih Just in time to pre-
vent San Francisco capitalists fro m cap
turing the plum.

SCALPED TICKETS
The Byrno Case to Be Tried Before a
jury

jury
The case OF Hugh Byrne, the Southern
Pacific conductor recently arrested On
com plant of Al Forman on a charge of
larceny, for taking up scalped ticket in
Forman's possession, was before Town
ship Justice Young yesterday morning
Colonel A. B. Hotchkiss, representing
Byrne, entered demurrer to the COM
plant, which was overruled, whereupon
a jury. trial was demanded. and the case
was set for nearing Thursday next.
Much interest is felt in the outcome of
this case. as it is proposed to test the
action OF the Southern Pacific in taking
up scalped tickets. The railroad CONF pany
has for some months been waging vIgor-
Gus warfare against the so-called scalpers
or ticket brokers, and has maintained a
c orps OF detectives in this city, as we'll as
at San Francisco to keep track OF sus-
pected tickets. A train agent has also
been on duty to watch the overland
trains. In consequence the brokers have
suffered very heavy pecuniary loss, their
business being almost destroyed.
In the present case it is contended that
FOrman is in the employ of the brokers,
and that his attempted use of the scalped
ticket was put-up job for the purpose of
bringing matters to crisis. Forman, it
is alleged, presented the ticket, and when
requested to do so. signed the name of
the original purchaser in the presence of
Conductor Byrne. AS the passenger was
known to the conductor. he took up the
ticket and eyicted the passenger from the
train, whereupon the com plant was filed
as above stated.
". X. Bacon. attorney for Forman, says
that it is the intention to carry the case
to the court OF last resort to have the mat.
ter definitely settled. He says that the
railroad company takes up all the unused
portion OF any ticket presented, whether
it IS over its lines OF not, ana it is to
decide whether this can bs done or not
