PAID OFF AN OLD SCORE.
How Governor Mckinley Got Even with
Senator Manderson for an Old Trick.

How Governor Mckinley Got Even With
Senator Manderson for an Old Trick
From the Lancaster, o., Gazette.
Ex-senator Henderson once stole a
speech from Ex-Governor Mckinney
when they were young lawyers practic-
ing together in Canton. They entered
politics about the same time and dur
ing the campaign often spoke from the
same platform. 1t was during the first
campaign in which Mckinley had ever
taken an active part that Manderson
served him the scurvy trick we relate
During this campaign Manderson
had invariably closed the meetings ana
covered such ground as his companion
had left unexplored. Mckinley had
prepared his speech with great care
and had committed IL to memory. He
had no other at hand and at their vari-
Gus meetings, of course, repeated the
same speech without variation. Man
derson was possessed of a phenome-
nally retentive memory, and after he
had heard the governors speech halt
dozen times he knew IL by heart and
was able to repeat it word for word.
The fact was unknown to Mckinley,
however, and one night when Mander-
son complained of feeling unwell and
requested the privilege of opening the
meeting with a brief talk and leave
the bulk of oratory to Mckinley, his
Obl1E1ng frlenQ acQuleSCeu
Thereupon, Henderson took the plat
form and made McKinley's speech YER
batim ct lfteratim. The future cham
pion of protection was dumbfounded,
and when his turn came to speak he
could only apologize and excuse him.
self on account of sudden illness. Nc
Kinley took the cruel joke good ma
turedly, however, and laughed with
Henderson over it when they retired
to their room.
Many years after, when both had be-
come famous, Mckinley had his re-
yenge Henderson had forgotten the
affair altogether and once again they
found themselves booked to speak at
Joint meeting. Mckinley had not for
gotten his former experience and saw
here an opportunity to even up. In the
most polite and affable terms he re-
quested to be permitted to open the
meeting and was promptly and gra-
ciously accorded the privilege. He open
ed with his usual elaboration and pro-
ceeded to argue at length every ques-
ton and discuss every issue with un-
usual fullness, until he had covered
every matter which could be construed
| into the least semblance OF political or
/ partisan importance. His prolonged
( talk occupied nearly three hours in its
/ delivery and consumed all the time al
/ loted to both speakers.
Henderson stood il for two long
| hours and then he climbed down from
| the platform and made his way to the
| privacy of his room at the hotel, where
| Mckinley subsequently found him, red
hot and reeking with perspiration over
! his efforts to do the subject justice.
When Mckinley appeared he was re-
| ceiyed with a cyclone of rebukes, plen-
tifully embellished with profanity.
After the offended man cooled off a
little Mckinley informed him of the
Joke he had perpetrated upon him in
! the long ago when they were young.
Manderson ultimately forgave his
friend, but he did 1t reluctantly and by
Z degrees.

schedule time. the miners would take
turns in going down on snowshoes TO
get the mails and a few necessary sup
plies that could be carried upon their
backs.
But the practical application of the
endless chain by the inventor OF the
Huson tram has greatly facilitated the
transportation of supplies from Tellu-
ride up to Marshall Basin. Great iron
buckets. each carrying down the noun
tain half ton of ore, furnish by their
weight the active power which drives
the endless chain from which they are
suspended. In these buckets. upon
their return, the necessary supplies for
the camp are placed. One of these
buckets is painted a bright red color
and the letters United States Mail"
in black, designate the use to which
It is put. The daily mail for the Snug
gler postoffice is now delivered as reg
ularly across the four miles of preci-
pice, snow-buried gulches and giant
mountain ruggedness with as much
safety as between two settlements on
the prairies of Western Kansas or Ne
braska
A free delivery system is in vogue in
the mining districts, though the postal
authorities have nothing to do with IT.
From every mountain postoffice trails
diverge up every draw and gulch. A
miner SettlnR out LOT MS CdDlfl, ptTChcu

take with him the mail belonging to
his neighbors. though they may live
miles from his place. AT each turning
point a small box will be found nailed
securely to the trunk of a stout old
pine tree and upon this box is scrawled
the names of all miners who must pass
that tree in going to their respective
cabins. In this box the last man from
town deposits all the mall belonging to
miners living up that particular gulch.
From that gulch miner will occasion
ally descend for NAH, and as he re-
turns up his trail he deposits in turn
the several pieces of mail in other
boxes placed at convenient points. In
this manner one man can save many
weary step to other miners who live
out the long winters in the very heart
of the Rocky Mountains. Mails are col
lected in a similar manner. and often
small errands are likewise done.
Money deposited in mail boxes for the
purchase of stamps, tobacco and other
notions light in weight Is always prop
erly respected and the mission fulfilled,
no matter how much the snowshoe pc
destrian may be under the influence OF
good fellowship as he returns from
town.

Mail Routes in the Mountains.

From the San Francisco Post.
Probably the most unique way of
Transporting mails known to the Unit
ed States postoffice department is that
in daily use between Telluride and
Smuggler. Cal The mining town of
Telluride is located at the head of a
picturesque gulch. The mountains rise
in majesty to cloud-piercing heights
above the town, and from every pre-
cipitous draw between the giant peaks
foaming cascades, waterfalls and roar
ing streams come down from the snow
laden SUBMITS to swell the torrent of
the San Miguel, which rushes through
the town. Four miles above Telluride
is Marshall Basin, situated among the
snowy peaks and far above the timber
line. and in this basin is the little min
ing settlement of Smuggler. where the
employees of the great Smuggler- Union
and Tom Boy mines make their homes.
Although the inhabitants have post

tiles do not guarantee a regular ser

SHOWS up the steep trails to the set

recent years all supplies for the camp
in Marshall Basin were transported
thither by pack animals. Timber for
the mines. coal for the boilers and iron
rails were dragged over the trails or
packed securely about swaying pack
saddles and carried 10 an elevation of
Il. 900 feet by the burro. When the

PLUM IN ITALY.
Frequent Robberies of the Baggage Van
on the Italian Railways.

ON the Italian Railways.
From the New York Evening Post
The British vice consul at Venice
makes a report which is of interest to
all intending visitors to Italy. He
says: although there is no doubt a
diminution in railway thefts, COM
plants are occasionally received at
this office of jewels and other articles
being stolen from the baggage of Brit
ish travellers with a view to obtain the
assistance of the consulate to recover
If practicable. the missing property
and to discover the culprits. 1t can
not be too strongly recommended to
British travellers never to put any jew
elry or valuables of any kind in trunks
intended for the baggage van, TO have
their trunks corded and sealed, and to
examine them carefully before with
drawing them from the station, for the
following reasons-namely, that the
thieves, besides working with false
keys, can drive out the pins of the h1sp
or of the lock or hinges and have them
carefully replaced, after having alb
stracted the contents, without leaving
any external signs of the trunks hav-
ing been tempered with, an operation
which cannot be performed II the
trunks are corded and sealed. The
railway authorities state that they can
not be held liable for the safety of
valuables Enclosed in registered pack
ages unless they have been previously
declared and paid for under the al
legged difficulty of discriminating on the
lines of which company the thefts are
committed; and once the trunks are
removed from the station, in charge of
a commi ssionaire or other party, the
railway authorities disclaim all re-
sponsibility of any kind. and subse-
quent representations are perfectly
useless. Although the police authoTi-
ties would appear to have taken
prompt action on every case brought to
their knowledge, yet the perpetrators
have only been discovered in rare in
stances"

IN THE HOUSE.
The Rebate on Alcohol Used In tho
Arts and Medicines Repealed.

Washington City. May 26-The house to-
day. by a vote OF 1e5 to 90. passed the bill
for the repeal OF section 81 OF the pres
ent tariff law. providing for a rebate on
alcohol used In the arts or medicinal COM
pounds. An amendment was attached to
the bill providing for a joint commission,
to consist OF three members from each
house. to examine and report on all ques-
tons relating to free alcohol at the next
session. The opposition TO the measure
came almost entirely from the Eastern
and New England states. An analysis Of
the vote shows that 55 Democrats. Ie4 Re-
publIczns and Populists voted for the
bill. and 90 Republicans and Democrats
against the bill. The senate amendments
