In days gone by The ptoprietor OF a
chemists shop close by Temple Bar, IN
London, enjoyed the monopoly OF maxi
Ing citric acid. He employed no work
men; the mysterious operation by
which he grew rich was confined to
himself. One day, having looked the
doors and blinded the windows, the
chemist went to dinner. A chimney
sweep. or boy disguised as such, wide
awake on chemistry, was on tho watch.
Following the man to Charing Cross to
make sure that he would not return
that day, the sooty philosopher hiad
rapidly back to Temple Bar, ascended
the low building, dropped down the
fiue. saw all he wanted and returned,
carrying with him the mystery. The
monopoly of the inventor was gone. A
few months after the price of the ar
ticle was reduced forr-ffths. The poor
man was heartbroken and died shortly
afterward, ignorant Of the trick by
which he had been victimized.
The history Of cast steel presents a
curious instance of secret stealthily
obtained under the cloak of an appeal
to philanthropy. IN 1850 there lived al
AtteTcliH matchmaker named Hunts
man. He became dissatisfied with the
watch springs in use and set himself
to the task of making them Eomoge-
neous. lie succeeded his steel became
famous, ard about 1910 large manu-
factory OF this peculiar steel was estab-
lished at Attercli4. The process was
wrapped in mystery, faithful men were
hired, large wages paid and stringent
oaths administered. One midwinter
night as the tall chimneys OF the After
cliff steel works belched forth their
smoke traveller knocked at the gate.
It was bitterly cold and the stranger
awakened no suspicion. Moved by mo-
tives OF humanity, the foreman let him
in. Feigring to be worn out with cold,
the fellow sank upon the floor and
soon appeared to be asleep. That.
however, was far from his intention
He saw workmen cut bars Of steel into
bits, place them in crucibles and thrust
the crucibles into the furnace. The
FIRE was urged to its extreme heat until
the steel was melted, and then drawn
out and poured i'll liquid form into
molds Mr. Huntsman's factory had
nothing more to disclose; the secret
of making cast steel had been stolen.

REMARKABLE DAMAGE SUIT
Man Who Falls Down a Cellarway Gets

Gives NJ It's eason that lie Had
Bees Cnred by Christian
science-Scheme for n
New Railroad.

DIES MONIES, Ia, Nov. 19.-(Special Tele-
Sram.)-A most remarkable settlement Of q
damage suit against the city was reached in
the district court today. Some time ago
Daniel W. Chase fell down an archway in
front OF the Meek block. He sued Meek
and the city for damages and secured a judg-
or $4,000 against Meek. Today the city
asked that the case be dismissed, because
chase admitted that he had been cured by
Christian Science. The case was dismissed
on that ground. The history of the courts
OF the state shows no similar incident.
An injunction suit will be commenced In
the federal court here Monday by the for
eign insurance companies to restrain State
Treasurer Herriott from Collecting the 3S
per cent tax assessed against these COM
Danies upon their gross receipts.

profession he had adopted, we're all alluded
10. Those pertaining to Colonel Chase re-
ferred TO the fact of his having been the
first attorney general Of Nebraska aud also
to his patriotic descent and character, his
interest in the Humane society and his
gentle home life and position as a church
man. Both resolutions we're full OF lauda-
tion for the distinguishing traits Of the
deceased.
Eloquent e~ulogles followed from various
members OF the bar, the elder ones devotlng
themselves TO Colonel Chase's record and
character and the younger ones, who were
naturally more acquainted with Mr.. Onutt
than will Colonel Chase, combining them
selves more particularly to Mr.. Quits
memory. The first came from Judge E.
wakeley, who had known Colonel Chase for
the last thirty years and knew him in Wis
consin before he came to this state. He
offered some glowing encomiums to his
character as a man, a lawyer and q poll
tician.
Silas Cobb followed with an eloquent re-
sumo Of Mr.. Offutt's brilliant career, cut
short so untimely and with such a pathetic
ending. Speaking from his personal knowl-
edge, Mr.. Cobb alluded to Mr.. Offut. hav-
ing been twice speaker Of the Kentucky
house at the very young age Of Is years.
He also spoke Of Mr.. Ohutt's standing as a
lawyer at Paris, KY, and the interest the
Louisville and Kentucky papers generally
had taken in his illness and dearn.
Simeon Bloom, c. A.. Baldwin, Charles J.
Greene and others made speeches of similar
tenor and each Of the Judges voiced
his own special eulogy Of the two mourned
lawyers. Both resolutions were ordered
spread upon the minutes.
