Justice, Fields Career.

Stephen Johnson Field was born at Had

the son OF David Dudley Field, and one OF
lour brott ers who became famous, David
Dudley. Cyrus W. and Henry NJ. Field
being the other members Of the quartet
hat made their names known throughout
me world. He was educated at Williams
College, from which he was graduated in
1887, at the head OF his class. He then
went to New York, where he entered the
law Office Of his brother, David Dudley
Field He was admitted to the bar and be-
came partner In the firm, remaining as
such for seven years.
In November, 1S49, he sailed for San
Francisco, around Cape Horn, and entered
upon the practice of law In the Occidental
metropolis. After short time he moved
to Marysvllle, small mining camp, and
became one OF the founders OF what after.

A Weird ServIan Story.

A weird story comes from the Ser.
Wan town Of Petrovac. The Servlan
peasantry is quite as superstitious as
the same class in any other continental
country, and it is all article OF the
peasant creed that the treasures OF the
Car Radowan are buried somewhere
within King Alexander's realm. 1t is
said to be no rare thing to see bands
of peasants, to the serious neglect of
their farm work, digging in the earth
for these self-same treasures. A
peasant named Theodore Paikovic was
digging, this story goes, with num-
Der of his fellows, in the outskirts OF
Petrovac. Pajkovic's wife, Marinka,
watched the perspiring lahorers at
their self-assigned task. One of the
men remarked that he had heard that
to be successful in treasure-quest one
must have human blood on ones
hands. The diggers looked at one
another questioningly. Then one
nodded toward Marinka and screwed
up his face inquiringly at her husband
The husband nodded and winked,
then added aloud: GAIL right! She
can die; there are other wives to be
had" He had hardly spoken the
words when o revolver hanged and
Marinka fell over deal. All night the
men dug within view OF the corps, but
the next day the police got wind of the
murder and the treasure hunters are
now awaiting trial. Chicago Record.

Their Eminences take great care
that none shall overlook them while
they write and seal their vote.
Each Cardinal in turn takes his
folded voting paper between the thumb
and index finger of his ringed rig ht
hand, holding it aloft in view of all.
So, and alone, he goes to the altar,
makes his genuAexion on the lowest
step; on the highest step he swears
his oath aloud that his vote is free.
On the pateu which covers one Of
the great golden chalices he lays his
voting paper. He tilts the paten till
the paper slides from it into the cbal-
lice. He replaces the paten as cover
and returns unattended to his throne.
