5 Silver In q 0rindstone.

"Assayers are the common butt
in all mining camps, and as rule,
l believe they get it in the neck
undeservedly,' said a well-known
mining man. "For. example" said
he, "you remember that story of
Mark Twain's. how the boys up in
Utah got hold ola chunk of a Nor
mons grindstone and worked it off
on the camp assayer? He got an
assay of $500 to the ton in silver
out of that grindstone, and the boys
ran him out of camp. That was q
true story, and yet, after these many
years, let me tell you that assayer
was all right. You see in the early
days the Mormons used to cut their
grindstones out of what afterward
was known the world over as Silver
Cliff. That cliff was a sand carbon
ate. and eventually it was discov-
cred to be one of the most wonderful
deposits of silver ore the world has
ever known. But that was too late
TO help the poor devil Of an assayeI
who sampled the grindstone."

4 Chat With Durrant.

Just ono year ago yesterday, says
the s. F. Chronicle Of April 18th,
Durrant's name was entered upon
the prison register and the world
stood aghast at the nonchalance of
the man, scarcely more than boy,
who was charged with most foul
crime. The legal continuances in
separable from so long trial have
taken him over the various times
set for execution and left him still
an inmate of the county Jail.
When seen yesterday, he said !:
II think it is horrible to be recalling
these days. Why rake over these
dreadful things? People ought to
be permitted to forget them. Yes,
this is the 18th, / know it, but l
have not thought of it any differ
emily from other days. They are
all anniversaries to me. They all
mark the frightful chance in my life.
Had my plans for the future car
ried, / would have been q long way
from here now. After graduating
from Cooper College I was to have
gone to Europe and studied four
years. Everything was so promis-
ing. / had every incentive to work,
and to think that all should have
been undone. I'm so changed in
every way that I actually seem like
some one else. tits as if there were
two beings, two lives.
And then have been pictured
az such monster, utterly devoid
of heart, of feeling, perfectly indif-
ferent to all which has transpired.
But what is the use of my talking
and expressing opinions? I'm not
supposed to be deserving of the
right to exist. No, / don't realize
that / am condemned. It seems
as though I had seen a terrible play,
but that others were the actors and
/ only q spectator. l cannot feel
that l am doomed for what I did
not do. As another wrought this
ruin, 80 it seems that upon him is
the condemnation. l find it hard
to make clear just how | feel. And
/ ought to be afraid to talk. have
been wronged and misquoted 90
often; but in spite Of all the admo-
nitions from my attorneys / find it
absolutely next to an impossibility
to refrain from talking all the time
freely and fully of everything which
has occurred. I have that within
me that makes me want to protest
to prove my innocence. / feel that
1 must some way be able to do it.

Said Paderewski the other day in
Chicago: II once dined with an
official of the Russian army. This
official had in his command an off,
cor of great ability who was addict
Cd to strong drink. It was arranged
that the man should take dinner
along with 10 that day. Instead Of
soup, the first course served to him
was brandy, which he must swallow
. spoonful ct = time, Just as be
would have swallowed soup. After
the frst spoonful he was so sick
that he implored TO be spared. IN
der cover Of . drawn revolver, the
official commanded him to swallow
every spoonful in the plate. The
officer never drank : drop Of liquor
after that. Try to drink champagne
from 4 cup or liquor AZ that man
vas forced to drink it. It will

Mr.. Saunders appeared on behalf OF MS

fects OF the present law, and the necessary
for the proposed change. by citations fFom
the Codes and Acts Of various states'
He showed that the State OF virginia

its laws in this respect. lie sno"sp
that IN some OF these States the railroads
were given a limited time In which 10
fence their tracks. and their failure 10
TO do so was made a misdemeanor.
Mr.. Saunders said that the passage or
Of the law would give great relief TO
owners OF stock who held lands contigu-
ous TO the railroads. IL the railroads
failed to fence and killed stock. they
would simply have to pay the owners
for the damage done. Another erect
of the law would be 20 diminish liusa-
tion with the railroads and enable the
owners of the stock killed or injured 10
secure their damages promptly
Az the railroads would have 10 pay FOR
the mischief done. there would be no
