INHERITED A RIGHT TO GET DRUNK.
One Man in the world Who is Better on
Financially ;y Drinking.

One Man in the world Who Is Better OF
Financially l;y Drinking.
A young man in Chicago has been
making himself conspicuous recently
by appearing almost constantly in q
state of intoxication. He is the only
man in the world who may be said to
have inherited legally tendency to
drink.
His name is Robert Atwater Sanders,
of Alabama, and he is a grandson uf
Grover Sanders. Lawyer Paul z. Har-
ris, of Chicago, is young Sanders
counsel, and knows all about him.
"In 1895 the grandson, my client,
Lawyer Harris, was engaged in busi-
ness in birmingham and failed. He
had indorsed notes for friends to the
amount OF $3S,O0o, and these, together
with his financial liabilities, aggregated
an indebtedness of over $4,000. He
was sued on the notes and judgments
were entered against him for the full
amount. He was also sued for his
business indebtedness, and, though he
fought some of the claims, he was de-
feated in the courts The grandfather
failed to come to his rescue and refused
to see or have anything to do with his
grandson
when the grandfather died, year
and half ago, he left his property,
amounting TO about 100000, to his
grandson and granddaughter, my eli
ent's sister, in equal shares. but with
reference to the boy there was clause
In the will that read something IS fol-
lows:
"'And if at the time OF my death Or
thereafter the said Robert Atwateg
Sanders shall be drunken, dissipated Oh
vicious or shall habitually drink to ex-
cess of wine, spirits or malt liquors
the said share in hereinbefore men,
toned property shall be held in trust
by the said trustee, who shall pay only
the income of the same to the said
Robert Atwater Sanders during such
time as in his judgment the said Robert
Atwater Sanders shall continue tc
drink wine, spirits or malt liquors to
excess or continue to be drunken, dis.
sipated or vicious
Now you can readily understand
Mr.. Sanders jags. If he is sober and in
dustrious the trustee, who is an uncle
OF mine. at once turns over the prime
ipal and the Judgment creditors al
once jump in and gobble up pretty
much all of his property. If, on the
other hand, he is drunken and dissi-
pated, he enjoys an income of pretty
nearly $4,000 a year. Anybody car
stay very comfortably loaded on thai
and have money to spare"

a message of coincidence.

The trial excited wor divide interest.
More than hundred talesmen We're re
jected because they declared they would
acquit Sickles. Mr.. Stanton made the
chief speech for the defence. He bod
ly claimed that 1t was absolutely nec-
essary for the security of the home that
a husband should destroy man who
so wantonly invaded it as Key had
done in this case. Mr.. Sickles wept
copiously during the trial and betrayed
intense mental suffering.
The verdict was mot guilty" 1t was
received with thunderous and uncon-
trollable applause.
Then a thing happened which as
torished the public even more than the
Staying. Mr.. Sickles took back the
wife whose conduct had caused him to
kill man.
1t appeared that he had frequently ex-
pressed his intention OF forgiving his
wife in case he should be acquitted.
One great reason for this was his de-
sire to save his innocent daughter from
the consequences of her mothers error,
as far as possible.
Mr.. Sickles' action raised storm OF
comment, largely disapproying. 1t Of
Tended against the moral code of many
men who had applauded his act Of de-
struction.
Lovely, broken-hearted and penitent.
Mrs. Sickles survived only q few years
the tragedy which her sin had caused.
She left a daughter TO the care of the
husband, who lfad forgiven so much.
General Sickles lived to become one
OF the nations prominent men. He
fought through the war and COM
manded the Third Army Corps at Get
tysburg, where he lost leg. Since
then he has held many Offices and been
concerned in many events.
To-day he is a conspicuous figure in
New York life-rich, active in spite Of
his years; one of the regular first
nighters at theatres. But his greatest
claim to human interest is that he
made the rule that a man may slay the
invader of his household.

statements represented that he sup

At IL o'clock the jury and attorneys
in the case went to the Rio Grande

specting the car, or one similar, which
plaintiff boarded the night he was hurt.
Plaintiffs statement shows that he
boarded the end car. and that not in
the usual way by walking up the steps,
but by climbing over the rear. HIS
reason for doing this is that he was
afraid, it being a dark night, tnat ne
would fall or stumble into the ditch
at the side of the track if he mounted
by way of the steps.
From the depot the jury proceeded by
wagon to the crossing and inspected

HAWAIIAN Commission BACK
HAVE COMPLETED THEIR WORK
ON THE ISLANDS.
Hordes of japanese Laborers Are In
vading Hawaii = Desires of the
American Element.

San Francisco, Sept. 30.-The Ha-
waiian commissioners returned today
on the steamer Gaelic. Little regard
ing their work in the islands and their
probable recommendations could be
learned, though they were willing TO
talk of the beauties of the Islands and
their kind and enthusiastic reception
by the islanders. They did say, now
ever, that the islands are destined to
enjoy great prosperity in the near fu-
ture, though all agreed that it would
take an immense sum of money to de-
velop their resources. 1t was intimated
that great consideration would be given
by the commission in its report regard
ing the invasion Of the island by
orientals. The islanders are already
complaining of the increasing hordeS
of laborers, especially from Japan, the
little brown men f1ocking to the Islands
in great numbers in anticipation OF a
restriction act The commissioners
denied any difference with President
Dole and expressed themselves highly
appreciative of the assistance render
ed by that gentleman to the commits
sion. They speak highly of his treat
ment OF them and all esteem him i'm
nlenSely.
The commissioners will probably go
east tomorrow night and will present
their report to the president and Will
later appear before congress.
Under date Of Sept. %, the Honolulu
correspondent of the Associated Press
writes that the congressional commits
sion, having completed its work, Sem
ators Cullom and Morgan and Con-
gresham Hit left for Washington,
where they viii hold a meeting on
November II, which will be attended by
Justice F'rear and probably by Presi-
dent Dole. During the last few days
of their stay in Honolulu a number of
petitions were sent TO the commission
by various foreign residents. The
American Union party, which claims to
represent the American element in the
islands, sent memorial requesting
that the commission recommend a
liberal form of territorial form of gov
eminent. The memorial further favors
liberal suffrage law, the extension of
the United States tariff laws and ship
ping to Hawaii. The memorial asserts
that it is for the best interests of the
island that the first governor of Hawaii
should be one who is not bound by any
tie, political or otherwise, to any party
or class Of residents in Hawaii.
In speaking of the work of the COM
mission Senator Cullom said: I'VE
have done as much as possible in the
time ct our DISPOSAL and we have
covered the ground thoroughly. When
we meet in Washington we will go to
work at once on our report"

Horn Silver Dividend.

The Horn Silver Mining company
paid its regular quarterly dividend yes
terday of $4,000.
In speaking of this prolific and ia
nous producer, Manager P. 7. Farms
worth states that it is in a splendid
physical condition, and that this had
been its history for year or more now,
as the lower workings have disclosed
magnificent ore bodies, which have con-
tributed regularly to heavy shipments
Of crude ore, or have kept the mill at
the mine in continuous operation.
A new feature connected with the
operations of the Horn Silver is that
it is now making occasional carload
shipments of ore which carries copper
values running % per cent and over to
the ton, while the mineral also runs
well in gold, silver and lead.
