ROBT. GARRETT'S WILL.
Two Made One of Which Bequeaths
Ala Property to His Wife.

Baltimore, Aug. 5.-Two wills made
by the late Robert Garrett viii be filed
for probate at Towson today. The first
will was drawn in Baltimore in 1883
and substantially names his wife as
sole devisee and legatee. The second
was executed in London, Eng, July 5,
1885, a short while after the tragic
death of his brother T. Harrison Gar
rett.
In the last document 100000 is be-
queathed to each of the three child
rem of his brother; 100000 to William
A. F'rick, his father-1n-Iaw; 100000 to
Charles Mite, his homme d. affaires
and $40, 900 to A. B. Craine, Mr.. Gar
rett's private secretary. All the re
mainder of the estate is given to
his wife absolutely. 1t is thought his
widow intends to adopt the last will.
No requests to charity are made, the
will stating that Mrs. Garrett was
fully acquainted with his plans and de-
sires on that subject.

finished his education at Williams col
1ege, went to New York, where he
studied law for awhile with his already
famous brother, David Dudley Field,
took short trip to Europe and hurried
back across the ocean to join the rush
for the golden fields.
Landing in San Francisco with but
SO in his pocket he drifted around
awhile until he finally reached a place
then called Nye's Ranch, but now known
as MarysviIle. He had scarcely landed
from the boat when ne wandered into
an adobe hut where a crowd of men
had gathered. The hat and 4 lot of tents
composed the place, but a real estate
agent was there and was shouting to
the crowd:
''Come, gentlemen All you that
want lots, step up and put your names
down. They are $3.50 apiece. Come,
young man, he said, addressing Field,
put your name down.
''AIl right, - said Field. 'tBut sup
posing 1 put my name down and then
do not want the lots. -
''Weu, you needn't take them if you
find you don't want them, " was the re-
ply.
So Field subscribed for 65 lots, valued
at SIG, $50, although he had in his
pockets at the time barely enough to
buy night lodging. His quick action,
however, started the boom and it was
noised around that he was an eastern
capitalist with big bank roll. The
price of lots went soaring upward and
in a short time Field sold a small por-
ton of his lots for $25, O0e Then he
was elected alcalde of the town, which
was still under Mexican rule. 1t was
while holding this Office that ne incurred
the en1nity of Judge Turner, who had
been appointed to preside in the district
The quarrel terminated in Turner's
challenging Field to fight duel. The
latter accepted so promptly that Turner
humbly apologized.
On another occasion Judge Barbour
also challenged Field, naming as the
conditions that pistols and bowie knives
were to be used in a room 20 feet
square. 81 saw that it was a game of
bluff, said Field, land I called his
hand by accepting instantly"
Barbour had to crawl out of the stu
alton and was so universally ridiculed
that in his desperate anger he went to
Fields Office and putting a revolver to
the judges head told him to draw and
defend himself Field was taken by sur
prise, but replied:
ardly assassin, you haven't the courage
to shoot. Shoot, I tell you. Shoot and
be damned - Barbour put up his weap-
on and walked out, thoroughly dis
graced. S. P. SCHENCK

THE SENIOR JUSTICE.
Stephen J. Field, NestOr of the
United States Supreme Court.
Appointed by Lincoln in 1858 He Has
Seen Supreme Courts Come and
Coils Exciting Career.

1t seems that Justice Stephen J. Field
has not been SO dangerously i'll as he
was recently reported to be and that
he has no intention of resigning from
the supreme bench just yet. Although
he viii be so years old next November,
he is still capable of attending to the
somewhat arduous duties of his Office.
For years Justice Field has been the
Nestor OF the supreme court. He is not
only the Oldest justice, but his term of
service has been very much longer than
that of any of his associates. He was
appointed by Abraham Lincoln in 1868,
and Justice Harlan, the next Oldest in
service, was appointed by President
Hayes in 1877. He has seen four su-
preme courts come and go. He has wit
messed great national questions grow
from local issues, increase in Importance
until they came before him for settle
ment and then sink into the Obscurity
of forgotten history. Statesmen have
been trained, reached the climax of
their glory and have passed into pOliti-
cal oblivion under his eyes. The men
who are now powers in the land were
schooIboys when he took his seat on
the greatest tribunal in the country.
For so many years has the life of JUS
tice Field run on smoothly, with but
one exception, that many men who know
him now seldom remember that the
early part Of his career was more stir
ring and eventful than that of any
other man in public life. The exception
was an occurrence of seven years ago
when Judge Terry of California tried
to kill him and was himself killed by a
deputy sheriff who was guarding the
justice in the anticipation of just such
an attack.
But Judge Terry was not the only
man who had tried to kill Justice Field.
A dozen times, if not more, has his life
been in danger from an enemy, for he
began his legal career, it must be re-
membered, in the California gold dig
gings during the time of the forty
miners. He was not passive spectator
of those stirring scenes, but was a prom
inent actor in them.
Born in the peaceful village of Had
dam, Conn, he had hardly begun his
schooling when he accompanied his sis
ter, who had married a missionary
preacher, to Smyrna On his return he

San Francisco, Aug. 6.-David Maggie,

Field of the United States supreme
court, became involved in 8. serious al
tercation yesterday with James H.
