LIKE BLEAK HOUSE SUIT.
Legal Troubles of Missouri Heirs Last Twenty
 five Years.

From the New York Press.
 One of the most striking illustrations of the laws delay and which is celebrated in the courts of Missouri as the famous case of Jarndyce vs. Jarndyce was in Dickens story of Bleak House." is the suit over the estate of Murdock & Dick son, which has been before the St. Louis courts for over a quarter of a century and is not settled yet.
 Interest in the case has recently been re- vived by Judge James E. Withrow of the circuit court of St. Louis having been summoned to Jefferson City to show cause why he should not be punished for con- tempt in disregarding writ of. the su- preme court. Although the amount in- volved in the suit brought by the Dickson heirs is only $10,000, it has been on the docket at every term of court in St. Louis since Nov. 20, 1873. A list of dates in the case shows about sixty entries extending over the intervening period of years
 The history of the case began on Jan. 26, 1871, when the firm of Murdock & Dick son was dissolved by the death of the junior partner. In March following Mur- dock took charge of the estate, giving a bond to the probate court. Two years later the court ordered a new bond, but this was never given, nor was the partner ship estate ever fully settled, though the index records of the court bear memor- andum on the case, "Finally settled De- cember term, 1875" This was made by clerk, without authority, and is the point on which all the subsequent litigation hangs.
 It was not until August, 1875, after an interminabe mass of legal difficulties, that the error was discovered. and this brought about the present squabble between the circuit court and the supreme court, 1t being suggested to the lattetr by the at torneys for the Dickson heirs that Judge Withrow was in contempt
 John M. Dickson, who represents the heirs, and is also one of them, declares that the fight for final settlement Is car- ried on owing to the fact that the cons tinued litigation seriously affects other interests

IN WAsHINGTON's POCKETS.
Search Showed First President Did Not Chew
 Gum or Smoke Cigarettes.

From the Washington Star.
 A man who has just returned from a post which he held in a foreign country told Star reporter an amusing story of something which occurred several years ago at the National Museum. The gen. tleman in question was connected with the museum unofficially. He spent much time there, assisting to arrange the diff ferent exhibits. In this capacity he had a key which admitted him to most of the cases where the relics etc., were kept He knew the curators at the museum, and enjoyed their full confidence. He said
 "One afternoon after the museum had been closed I was there with two or three of the other men connected with the place. I do not know just how the thing started, but we jokingly proposed to search the pockets of the clothes of George Washing ton, which were on exhibition. We had been arranging them or looking at them, l think, which suggested this
 Let's see if the old gentleman left any money in his clothes, or what he was in the habit of carrying about with him. one of us said, and the idea was carried out
 ''There was nothing in any of the pock- cts but one. In the bottom of this. when it was turned inside out was some brown, powdery substance, which had most pungent smell. There was considerable of this, which was either tobacco or snuff, showing that the Father of his Country was most likely addicted to the use of it.. I put it in a piece of paper and kept it carefully
 "The funniest part of it was that when I showed it to my little son on return ing home, he berated me soundly for talk ing part in a proceeding which he charac- terized as sacrilege in daring to violate the garments of so noted a person by put ting my hands in his pocket.
 Tt was much better to do it after he was dead, my boy, than to do the pick pocket act while he was living, I de- esAred
 Tt proved conclusive1y to me that the immortal George did not possess the chew ing gum or cigarette habit. If he smoked tobacco he used it in pipe. There was nothing of a dude about him."

tary on the millionaire's success in thd delicate task of developing a son. As one thought of that one thought also of tho more credit due to Sanger Pullman foY his courage in going to work. for his perl sistence and application in sticking to it.
 He Is all right" said the district snpers intendent. "He is learning about the bustS ness every day. He ought to know it pretty soon.'
 Why, l have no plans," said SangeR Pullman, as the 10:20 train pulled out and he started back to the Polk street depot.s That Is, no plans beyond going on a$ l am now. I'll hold this job if the Pull9 man company doesn't fire me-
 He smiled grimly, as if that was one of the things which might not unreasonablX be anticipated. Then he plunged into th9. slush beneath the yiaduct and tramped stnrdily up the the steamed and smoking passage way between coaches from Twelfth to Taylor streets and under the mighty shed to the Polk street officesf where he hung up his box coat and sat down at his little desk again.
 He has little something in addition to his salary. His father left him $3 900 0 year and he has home with his mother. His twin brother, now travelling in Califor- mia, was similarly remembered
 There was story to the effect thai Sanger Pullman's sweetheart was pained and disappointed when she found the wifi of George M. Pullman left but an annuity and that a modest one-to her betrothed. Men who know young Sanger well say the engagement was not broken by thS girl at all; that she was willing to marry the young man without regard to his fors tune, but that young Sanger Pullman voIi untarily released her-until such time as he should prove himself man in the world of men, She might be free mean+ time, but he would convince himself and her and all the world that he could get on regardless of inheritance or disinherfE tance.

HORSE WITH AN APPETITE.
Kentucky Equine Eats Anything and All He Can
 Get.
From the Louisville Post.

From the Louisville Post
 An old horse with an inordinate appe- tite is one of the curiosities I found on recent trip in Eastern Kentucky" said Col. Andrew Yates. '"This ancient ami nal was once ridden by a mail rider over in West Virginia and had to go in a jog from daylight till after dusk each day ex cept Sunday. But after long service old Bawley was traded off to a farmer living on the Kentucky side of the mountains, and he recently pensioned the animal, put ting Bawley on the pasture and letting him have all he craved morning and evening at feeding time. An ordinary meal for Bawley is two racks of hay, thirty ears of corn, a two-gallon bucket of bran, and a gallon of oats and all the stale bread and meat In the house. Bawley is as fond of meat and bread as of hay and corn, and
 in fact, will eat almost anything, not drawing the line at fruit or sweetmeats. The four-legged gourmand once broke in the hog pen and emptied a large trough of slop which had just been poured in for the porkers His owner said he once heard the old horse whining in pain, and went zout and dosed Bawley, his mpru- dence in devouring a bucket of new-made jam having superinduced serious illness, but the morse was ready to eat the fol- lowing morning as usual"

PROSPERITY AND MARRIAGE.
Weddings Made to Increase With the Epor:
 Trade.

From the British Medical Journal
 In his annual report on the health of Manchester during 1896 Dr. Niven had an Interesting discussion on the connection be- tween the marriage rate of urban commit mites and prosperity. It will be remem- bered that the register generals annual reports have for many years embodied a table stating the marriage rate in com parison with the value per head of popu- lation of the exports of British produce, the imports and the average price of wheat per quarter. Since 1860, when the table commences, the marriage rate for England and Wales reached it's lowest ebb in 1879 Q4.4, and in 1SS6-SS, when it was 142 to 14.4 In 1895 it was 15 per 1000 of population.
 The general rule has been that the mar riage rate has gone up and down with the value of British exports and with the aver age price of wheat. It would require some ingenuity to explain why these ratios vary in the same direction year by year, as with few exceptions they have done during the last thirty-five years. The ingenuity was supplied by pr. Ogle in 0 paper read before the Royal Statistical Society in March, 1890. His explanation was that marriages increased when the export trade was active, and that this ac- tivity caused a rise in freights, which in its turn sent up the price of wheat.
 II lHlS IS nov tnc cOTTtct cApidHdt1Ou-- and it has been stated that when the ex- port trade is active only the freights out ward rise, while the frcights homeward are considerably lowered because of the number of empty ships wanting to return home-then the correct explanation of the undoubted fact emphasized by Dr. Ogle still remains to be given. Among other points, it will require to be remembered that as countries fill up there must come natural check upon any such relation ship between the marriage rates and birth rates and the price of wheat as exists at present. Without committing ourselves to the views of Malthus. it is obvious that the world is being rapidly colonized Ere many decades are past America, especially the United States, will not be able to export corn, as it will consume all that it pro- ducesi and the same remark will aptlv and Australia.

SINGER PULLMAN
 EARNING HIS LIVING

unusual in that. Do you think a man should not work?"
 MT. Pullman did not seem to be specially busy. He gets down to work at s:30 in the morning and he goes home at in the af- ternoon-unless he is behind with his re- ports. Then he remains as late as 5.
 He has charge of all the Pullman sleep ing cars that run out of Chicago. He keeps track of them. He knows what cars belong to his district, and is getting so he can call them all by name. He attends to them personally. He sees that they are kept in proper order; that they are supplied with all the requisites of a sleeping car, and that the porters and con- ductors are on duty.
 The day was about the most unpleasant that even Chicago winter could produce. There was mud underfoot, a struggle be- tween snow and rain in the clouds and all the air was moist and soot-stained. San ger Pullman, less than a year ago pros- pectiye heir to millions put on a black box coat. took up a silk umbrella and tramped downstairs from his desk in Dear born station. A sleeping car man met him and called him "Mr. Pullman with all deference. All the railroad men about the station knew him, and gave him greet ing somewhat different from that accorded to the average hired man.
 They were wage earners themselves. Maybe they called this man "one of the disinherited twins" for George M. Pull mans will left the two boys very little money. Maybe they respected this youth the more for that manly courage which spurs him to labor.
 He fished a bunch of big brass keys out of his pistol pocket, and, unlocking one of the gates in the shed, started off down the platform at swinging walk. It is

DRINKS OF ALL NATISSs.
Interesting Statistics Compiled by the Lon
 don Board of Trade.
From the London Mail.

From the London Mail
 The board of trade has commenced the publication of a series of useful official re- ports showing the produc.- and con- sumption of alcoholic liquors, chiefly beer, wine and spirits, in the chief European countries and the United States
 The first striking fact is the geographi- cal distribution of alcoholic beverage Generally speaking spirits are consumed In the north, where cold and wet climates prevail, and wine in the south. In Rus sa spirits are almost the only drink In Germany, the Baltic provinces drink little or no wine, but prefer spirits with some beer, while the southern provinces-Alsace- Lorraine, Bavaria and Baden-consume considerable quantity of wine, as well as much beer. In France the staple beverage of the provinces bordering on the Med iterranean is wine, which is cheap there, but the colder departments of northern France drink far more spirits. The same difference of taste distinguishes northern and southern Italy. Beer is, of course, the staple drink in England and spirits in Scotland and Ireland.
 From the taxation of alcoholic beverages the United Kingdom derives 35 per cent of it's total revenue, the United States 30 per cent, trance IS per cent ana Gefnany TIE per cent, and it is in these countries that the amount of drink consumed is the largest.
 France is the country where the con- sumption of wine is largest and also generally speaking, the country where the production is largest too, though of late years the production in Italy has some times exceeded it. In the United Kingdom the consumption of wine in 1896 reached 15,776,000 gallons, but this was compara- lively little when entrusted with last years consumption of beer, which exceed ed 1,20O,0 100000 gallons, or thirty gallons for every member of the population.
 The people of Bavaria the worlds champion drinkers: their consumption of beer amounts to fifty gallons per head of the population in year. Belgium ranks second, where more than forty-three gall Ions of beer per head are consumed. It is the proud privilege of the United King dom to occupy third place. With over thirty gallons per head, relatively to pop- ulation, we beat Germany at the game and drink more beer, both in the total and per head, than Frenchmen drink wine.

DiSinh6rit6d Son Of Dead Mil- llOndir6 an Inspector of PdldC6 Sleeping
 Cars.

From the Chicago Chronicle.
 Sanger Pullman, inspector, Dearborn sta- tion, Polk street depot Chicago"
 A letter addressed in that fashion would reach the son of a many times millionaire, now working for a living. For Sanger Pullman has a desk in the district superin- tendent's office on the second floor of the Polk street depot. It is little desk, among a number of other little desks, at which young men and young women are at work for a living, never having known the distinction that pertains to paternal millions Young Mr. Pullman is feet 111s inches in his stockings. He is straight with good shoulders, face that testifies to good grooming hair smoothly brushed to the contour of the head and a rather inefficient mustache which gives promise of being a good thing in time When that time comes the mustache will be a decid- ed improvement, for the neither lip has a tendency to protrude. A heavy mus taehe will correct the trifiing irregularity.
 'sYes, I am working-working for a Eving,' said MT. Pullman, a little nettled at the questioner. q don't see anything

of Chicago, and 1t gives the Wagners to the East Shore road and the Pullmans to the Lackawanna and Western.
 The son of the man who invented sleep- ing cars stepped aboard of one, closed the vestibule door behind him, called out, Hello Greene" to the negro porter, who was dusting about-like a maid in a melo- drama.
 "Good morning, Mir. Pullman" responded Porter Greene "Nasty dav"
 ''Yes. Where's the Trinidad?"
 She's on the Buffalo run. She'll stay there till warm weather. Takes too much steam"
 Sanger Pullman looked over the sleeping car, saw it was ready for patrons who would leave on the 10:20 train for the east and then he sat down in section and glanced somewhat ruefully at the mud he had accumulated.
 Why, this working is no new thing" said he. i've been working for the last six years. l was in the bank at Pull man before l went to the Pullman Car company Of course, the present situation is new. l have been at this work only little while.
 Where did I get my education? Every where. No, l am not college man. never cared much for going to college. have always preferred business. Get rich? on, l suppose everyone wants to get rich aims at it, you know. No, I am not get ting rich very fast. that's true. What training I have had I got from my father And 1t was pretty rigid, I tell you. I was in the office right next to his office.'
 Somehow the young fellow-he is but 23 years old-spoke of that parsonage in pre- cfsely the same tone a man not related, and naturally gratified at the preference, would have employed. It was as if George M. Pullman were as distant from him as from any clerk in the big corpora ton. There was something almost plain- tive in that admission, coupled with the reference to his fathers rigid discipline. It revealed the heavy hand of the sleeping car magnate heavier even than common on his boy-who was yet not molded so suc- cessfully but that at g he is inspector of sleeping cars, at S100 a month
 It was not the most flattering commen-
