 The ease of c. W. Sherwood illus
 trates well the ups and downs of min ing. Sherwood had all option or bond on the Kearsarge mine, in Madison county, Mont, for Sl0O,O GOO which ex-
 pires next June He also had a lease of the mine. He didn't strike much of value in the Kearsarge, and, having ing in sight another prospect which he considered just as good, and which he preferred to work he sold his bond aud lease on the Kearsarge for S2j0 The buyer spent Sl, ,600 on the mine and got nothing out of it, and he turned the property over to c. A.. DsmOurs, who was without q dollar. Damours Is a geologist, and had been prospecting lu Madison county for years. He took the mine on the agree ment that If he struck anything he would pay she man from whom he got it the Sl, 600 which that man had expended and the s2jO, the first price of the bond and ease.
 At once when Damours began work ing he struck rich ore, and now be has money enough in the bank to take up that bond next June, for the option remains good, no natter who holds it.
 D~mours thinks the mine IS worth sl, ,00U,0Jo, and even the most conser,a- tive estimate here places its vaiue at $250, UJO. All this Damours will possess without haylug dollar Co start with, and upon the promise to pay sl ,60O plus the bonded price of S100,0OO, which he already has in bank.
 Sherwood will get the S250 for which he sold the bond and lease, and which the first buyer did not pay, and that is all he will get out of q mine which he himself admits has S25O, ,O0O In sight

PERSONAL PECULIARTIES
 OF THEODORE SKATER
Man Noted During the Present Trying Perod-A Rolling MI Man Who Studied for the Ministry Preached for
 While and Went Back to the Shop

hood changed it to that indefinite inde- terminate color the Scotch call sandy His complexion is light, and the red stubble of his beard gives his checks the peculiar mottled appearance of the strong man whose hair is light His hair is the most notable thing about him. It Is thick and bushy and is swept back from his high forehead in a careless wave His eyes are gray and far apart. His nose Is long and sharp. His cheeks are hollow and there are deep depres- slons under his. eyes. His arms are long and ungainly and bis hands huge and knotted He walks with quick stride and at times almost runs, so great is his enthusiasm to get to the place for which he has started.
 A Good Speaker.
 Shaffer speaks we'll His elouuence is like that of Bryan He has the same sort of musical well-modulated voice, and when he talks seems to get into a frenzy of inspiration and rolls out his words so fast 1t Is often difficult to fol- low hdm. The ministerial teaching has left its impress on him. His talks to the iron workers are interspersed with ref erences to the Almighty and he makes frequent Biblical allusions, At times he seems almost to be preaching a sermon. Then suddenly he cuts loose in the fa- miliar talk of the iron men and exhorts them to stand by and organize just as a roller would talk to a puddler or a heater
 Shaffer, when he was in the iron mills, worked all about Pittsburg. He was in the mills at McKeesport and at Wells yille In 1868 he worked as a rivitter on the big Pittsburg and Allegheny Bridge. The men in this section all know him, and when he goes on the platform he IS greeted with the cries of: Hello, Dorry, do you remember old times?" or Hello, Dorry, you're getting thin old mani"
 He does odd things. Sometimes he rushes out of Headquarters trailed by a dozen reporters, literally jumps down the two flights. sallops up the street into one of the alleys with which the older DOT ton of Plttsburg abounds, comes to dead walk and then turns and grins at his pursuers. N5
 His Idiosyncracles.
 On Tuesday, when Shaffer was prepar- ing his greater strike order, he shut him. self in his room and would see nobody. Word had leaked out that the order was being prepared, and the news, which had been printed in the Evening World, was telegraphed back here. Two newspaper correspondents, after Shaffer had refused to see them dozen times, rapped loudly at his door. Shaffer came himself and opened it just a crack ''Pm too busy!" he shouted half a dozen times. "I haven't time!" He was told politely that 1t wouldn't take half the time to say ''yes'' or mo" to the question he had been asked that he was consuming in protesting he was too busy to be seen. Suddenly Shaffer threw the door wide open. shouting: "Oh, we'll, come in if you want to-" and

Everybody in the iron and steel busl- ness, and especially in the labor organi- zations connected herewith, calls him "Dorry" Shaffer. His name is Theodore J. Shaffer, and his title, President of the Amalgamated Association of Iron Steel and Tin Workers, a rather imposing list of words to be tackled to the name of any one man. Still, very few call him Mir. Shaffer, and nobody calls him Theodore. He is hail fellow, well met, with every body, and, at that, is not too undignifed. He used to be minister, and his manner of greeting a stranger is the giad-to-see- you. come-and- -join-us method of the camp-meeting exhorter. When he was a boy he worked in the iron mills. Then, in early manhood, he studied theology and preached in Methodist pulpits for eight years. After that his health broke and he kept a grocery store. He made some money, but the old liking for the iron mills came back and he went to work rolling again. He has always been good union man, and his education and natural ability made him most valuable to the Amalgamated Association when the complicated question of scales came up each year. When President Garland re- tired Shaffer was made president of the association. He is forty-flve years old now.
 Was a Minister.
 Shaffer got his education under tre- mendous difficulties. He had to support a widowed mother and some yonnger brothers and sisters. When he became imbued with the idea that he had call to preach the gospel he was a rollers helper aged IT. He went to see a Meth odist minister of his acquaintance and was told just what he would have to do He was getting good money-four or five dollars a day-in the mills. If he gave that up there would be no income for the family. So he took a night shift job and went to the Wesleyan Theological College here in the day time. When he went on at night he took his books with him and worked out his Latin conjuga- lions with chalk on the housings of his mill. There too he solved his problems in algebra, and studied the art of sen tence making. He always had book on rhetoric with him. He had a certain rude facility of speech and composition and he studied, assiduously to perfect himself At night when the great rolls were slow ly turning out the sheet steel he de- claimed amid the claGnor of the mill and cultivated a power of throat and lung that enables him to be heard when a thousand noisy iron workers are gather ed in front of him.
 Shaffer is a tall man, nearly six feet in his stockings. He is broad across the shoulders and has an oval chest and the slight stoop of the man who has done much heavy work with his hands. His hair was red when he was a boy. Man.

in the piping about foot beneath the surface. The oil rose quickly to the sur face of the water and spread over It. Ropes were fastened to the raft and 6>E- Doty's assistants, walking along the opposite shores of the pond drew the spraying raft all over the pond
 This operation was repeated at a dozen small ponds or stagnant pools of water in the vicinity of Grasmere and Concord and the party did not abandon work for the day until the oil supply was exhaust- ed. Meanwhile Dr. Doty directed the sanitary policemen in visits to many res idences where his inspectors had found conditions adapted for the breeding of mosquftos. The house holders were ad- vised to empty water barrels. i'll in ff- tie puddles and clean up their premises Several unused cisterns were also treat ed with oil.

literally ran into the inner room, slam ming the door behind him. He wore a pink striped shirt without any coat, and his suspenders were hanging down his back Ills hair looked like a mussed wig Shaffer then opened the inner door cau- tiolsly and laughed Ten minutes later he came out into the room set apart for the reporters, went solemnly to the water cooler and drank a glass of ice water, turning as he did so and saying: Boys. I'll treat you. It's my turn. Have some ice water with me" That Is one of his stock jokes, and 1t moves him to prodi- gious laughter every time he gets it off.
 He Thinks Quickly.
 shaffer has a brain that works as quick as lightning. He sees through proposi- ton in a minute and gives a direct an- swer almost before the statement being made to him is finished He is clumsy and almost uncouth at times in his deal ings with men, for he has none of the finesse of other labor leaders. He jumps into an argument and hits out right and left without regard to whom he may hurt. The reporters are a great trial to him. he has never before this been accustomed to seeing press men, except the labor men for inc various Pittsburg papers, all of whom he knows intimately and who meet him as personal friends rather than as newsgatherers. Consequently when a lot of out-of-town correspondents begin to ask him rapid-fre questions he prances around and gets excited and at times ve- hement He is so thoroughly impressed with the right of his cause that he can not see how any newspaper can print, either editorially or In it's news columns any criticism of the Amalgamated Asso- ctation. and when he sees such criticism 4.f- nor QffTnnf gives the correspondent of the offending paper a rating every time he sees him.
 An Enthusiast.
 A week or so ago Shaffer disguised him self and went to cKeesport. He put on an old suit of clothes and grimed his face. Then he added to the makeup the most remarkable set of false whiskers ever seen off the vaudeville stage. To this day nobody understands why he rigged himself up as he did. Everybody in McKeesport knew him as soon as he stepped off the train When he is asked why he went to McKeesport looking like the hobo of the variety team of McSwat and McSwuIligan he laughs and doesn't answer.
 He Is the widest sort of an enthusiast He believes absolutely that everything connected with the Amalgamated Asso- citation is exactly right and that the Steel Trust in this present argument Is abso- lutely wrong No one can convince him that he has a chance to lose. So fervent Is he that he said in a speech to the Clark Mills strikers on Friday night: Rather than sign a scale that does not include every man on strike or going on strike I would give up my place as Pres ident of the Amalgamated Associat1on.' He meant it. too

A NEIGHBOR'S VENGEANCE.
A Tale of Maryland.
By Prince T. Woods.

Oy FRINGE i. w OOQS.
Emmanuel Strauss walked down the
lane driving his flock of turkeys The old
Dutehman was working himself into a
terrible temper; unconsciously he swelled
his chest and strutted until the old COB
bier begun TO look upon him as a rival
His ducks and goslings were sporting in
the creek below the barn, they were safe
but he dare no thrust his turkeys, for did
not John King live just over the hill?
Even now Strauss COWS were locked in
Kings great barn, held for trespass."
Strauss and King had been neighbors
for years, but of late bad blood" had
come between them and wiped out the
old friendship.
John King was prosperous Maryland
farmer who lived in a comfortable stone
house, half mile removed from the pub
nc road. His right of way through
strauss property had caused all the trou-
bic. AT first there mad been only slight
dlnerences and wordy Tits; and then
strauss. with all his Dutch determine
non, had begun TO provoke and antagon-
ize his neighbor Three times he had
huilt a fence directly across the lane
After the first time Kings carriage al
ways carried an ak in case one was
needed to break through the blockade.
NO more words passed between them.
nut II he was silent, the old Dutchman
was not idle; he lost no opportunity TO
sur the wrath Of his neighbor. When
