The impression which "Gall Hamll.
ton" made upon the life OF her timo
less personality than that Of literary
genius. She wrote too much. and.
while she wrote well enough to capt..
vate the reader Of day, We imagine
that few persons even know the names
Of her works and fewer still read them
mt this time. An occasional short story,
brilliantly ana swiftly composed, or q
political essay In which her judgment.
always hasty, was seen to be further
disturbed by her almost religious wOr.
ship Of her sole Idol In life, charmed
for while but was soon forgotten.
Gail Hamilton the writer was short.
lived, but Gail Hamilton the woman
never ceased TO attract the admiration
OF Americans. Such pluck, gayety,
earnestness ana freshness of mind aro
seldom encountered. She had views on
every subject, she was unabashed by
ridicule aud undaunted by failure. 1t
was characteristic of her that the last
public act Of her life should have been
her attempt to undo the m0nstrous In
justice which the English courts have
inflicted upon her unfortunate country
woman, Mrs. Maybrick. Such q per.
sOnality, however ephemeral may be
Its work when measured by literary
or other common standards, Is not lost.
lnsensibly, perhaps, the current Of at.
fairs In our generation Is directed
rather by such ardent but seemingly
Ineffective souls than by the men whose
names are printed on the covers of
great books or coupled with legislative
acts Of the most imposing dimensions.
A decision has been reached In the
suits between the national government
and the Union Pacific Railroad Com
pany which will relieve from anxiety
thousands Of settlers who bought their
lands from that company. After the
lands had been bought from the COM
pany In good faith, the land office dis.
covered that the patents under which
they were held were worthless, because
the company had no proper title to
them. In the suits which the govern.
bent brought to recover the lands, the
innocent settlers We're included with
the company as defendants. A law
passed last March, however, permits
the government to enter suit against
the company for the value of the lands;
and innocent purchasers are permitted
to receive new patents on filing the re.
quired proofs that they bought In good
faith. The company has now agreed
to pay the costs Of the original suits,
and proceedings have been begun un.
der the new law. A similar settlement
Is expected Of suits pending against
fifteen or twenty other railroad COM
panies.
A soap that Is soft Is full of water,
half or two-thrds its weight probably,
thus you pay seven or eight cents per
pound for water. DObblns' Electric
Soap Is all soap and no adulteration,
therefore the cheapest and best. Try
D0bbins'.
