Representative Dave" Mercer has a
Nebraska story with which he enter
tanned several of his Republican COL
leagues yesterday.
There was an epidemic of hog chol-
era in one of the counties" said he.
Along came a peripatetic citizen, who
called on the owners of afflicted swine
and proposed a sale of curative pow
ders These powders were guaranteed
to put hog cholera to rout. One of our
farmers made the purchase with alac-
rity and the hdg doctor departed.
THE two met subsequently, but the
farmer did not recognize the GENDER.
" Don't you know me, Mr.. Leech?"
inquired the latter.
No
" I sold you cholera medicine for
your hogs
" oh yes
Did you administer the POWDER
" Mixed 'em up the moment you
went away
1t cured your hogs?'
No, but it helped them to die cas-
ier.'
When Mr.. Mercer told this story yes
terday, some unfeeling member sug-
gested that it fitted very nicely the sec
ond conference to be held next Tuesday
on the Fowler currency bill.

The Baltimore Sun, writing of the
death of Mr.. Edwin L. Godkin. for
many years the editor of The Nation
and the New York Evening Post, re-
calls with appreciation that he more
than any other man revived the
conscience Of the North to a feeling of
the wrong done the South by the seal
awag and carpet-bag regime. The
scandals Of the period from 1865 to 1876
were mercilessly exposed by him, and
with such ability that they at length
became unbearable and the South was
freed from the violent interferences of
federal troops and Office holders" Dur
ing the war Mr. Godkin was intensely
Northern, but when the war was over
he demanded right and justice. The
Evening Post, by the way, is at the
present time engaged in demanding
right and justice for the Filipinos, fol-
lowing the line marked out for it by
Mr.. Godkin more than thirty years
ago

Stories from washington.

Judge Hubbard, of Iowa, who is a
great friend of Speaker Henderson, is
well known in his state as a railroad
lawyer. lie is tall and thin, with a
mild-mannered countenance, and sober
dress, that makes him look as If he
had just come out of a. Sunday-school
and had no business in this wicked
world. He is keen-witted and never lets
an opposing lawyer get the best of him
if he can help it.
The other day he appeared in the
United States Supreme Court in case
where the attorney general of Iowa
argued on the other side. The attor-
ney general was quite vociferous in his
argument, and also pounded the table
in front of him quite heavily. to the
evident annoyance of the justices, some
of whom frowned while the perform
ance was in progress. This fact did
not escape the watchful Hubbard. At
the conclusion of his opponent S
speech he arose.
May it please the court he said, Il
could smash this table, I could pound
it into splinters. 1 could make this
courtroom echo with my loud voice.
And l would" he added, glancing sig
niflcantly at the justices before him,
If l were addressing a country jury"
And then the justices smiled a sat
isfied smile and forgot all that the pre-
vious speaker had said.
This same Judge Hubbard is noted
for his quaint expressions.
One day he irritated a judge before
whom he was arguing a case and was
told to sit down.
Il command you to sit down." order
ed the judge when Hubbard remained
standing.
Il fine you $50 for contempt of COURT"
finally exclaimed the judge, and Hub
bard. counting out five ten-dollar bills,
handed the money to the clerk.
The judge, being a friend of the law
yer and knowing his character. at once
adjourned court with Hubbard still
standing AS soon as the court ad-
journed some one told Hubbard that he
should have obeyed the court.
NO" said Hubbard; "he was wrong.
If my legs had been tallow candles and
1 had been in the fires of hell, would
not have sat down until 1 had melted
up to the waist"

Judge BeIden Sends to the Circuit
Clerk His List of Court Commits
sioners for His Term.
CHANGES HAD BEEN EXPECTED
Judge Belden Pays No Attention to These
Stories and All the Old Ofiei-
Gals Are Renamed.

Judge E. B. Be1den, of the First
Wisconsin circuit, Thursday afternoon
filed with John B. Ma1oney, clerk of
the Circuit Court, his appointments
for Court Commissioners of the county.
It had been expected that several
changes would be made but every old
Commissioner was reappointed and
the men who will act for the Judge
during his term in this county are
Myron A. Baker, James Cavanagh, G..
r. Mcdowell, Henry J. Hastings and
John c. Slater.
All of the Commissioners had served
for one or more terms under Judge
Fish, and Myron A. Baker holds the
record Of having held the Office of
Court Commissioned for a period of
more than thirty years.
The duty of the Court Commits
sioners is to hear cases coming up at a
time when it is impossible for the
Judge to be upon the bench. They re-
ceive as compensation the fees allowed
by law in the matters heard. Kenosha
county is entitled to six Court Com
missioners and it is probable that
another commissioner will be appoint
ed later in the year.
The action of Judge Be1den in re-
appointing the officials appointed by
his predecessor has caused quite a
little comment in legal circles in the
city. During the heated campaigns for
the election of the judge several of the
commissioners in this city took an
active interest in the campaign and all
of them were not working in favor of
the election of Judge Be1den. On this
account it was thought that the judge
would not see fit to leave the same
officers in Office during his term on
the bench. However, it seems that
the campaign died with the election
and the judge has completely ignored
the action of any of the commission
ers and shows that he has forgiven
and forgotten by remaining them. All
the commissioners have splendid
records in the past and it is hardly
possible that better selection could
have been made.
It has been urged that there should
be a Court Commissioner in the
country towns and it is probable that
the extra commissioner will be allotted
to this section of the county.

]. A. FLETCHER OUT.
Superintendent of the Chicago Brass
Works Sends His Resignation to
the Company Friday.
HIS RESIGNATION CAUSES REGRET
Mr.. Fletcher, in His Connection With the
Plant, Had Done Much TO Improve the
Large Business of the Company.

J. A. Fletcher, for the past year and
half superintenden of the Chicago
Brass Works, has rendered his resigna-
ton to the directors of the company to
take place at once. The resignation
was forwarded to the central Office of
the company Friday and it caused
great surprise among the directors and
among the local officials of the plant,
among whom Mr.. Fletcher is a general
favorite.
On Wednesday of this week Mr..
Fletcher was reelected to his position
for another year and at that time no
intimation was given out that he de-
sired to sever his connection.
Mr.. Fletcher was seen today and in
speaking of the matter admitted that
he had resigned his position and stated
that he had taken the action for the
sole reason that he was not in COM
plete sympathy with some of the plans
for the plant and did not desire to re-
tard the progress by opposition. He
suggested that some other man would
probably be better fitted for the work
and at once gave up his position. Mr..
Fletcher stated that he was not at the
present time ready to announce his
plans for the future.
The retiring superintendent is one
of the best known men in the world of
brass in the United States. He is
self made man and has made himself
familiar with every department of the
industry. He came to Kenosha from
New York year and half ago to
take charge of the Kenosha plant when
it was under the ownership of Mrs.
Frank Avery. When Mr.. Fletcher
took hold of the plant he at once
started many improvements and at the
end of the first six months of his man
agement of the mills they were turn
ing out more and better brass than
ever before. When the trust took
charge of the local mills Mr.. Fletcher
was retained and the rapid advance
ment of the plant in the last year is
due largely to his untiring energy.
Mr.. Fletcher was great favorite
with the men, employed in the mill.
Every one of them was his personal
friend and the announcement of his
retirement will cause universal regret.
1t is probable that some Eastern
man now connected with the works at
Torrington will be sent to Kenosha to
take the place made vacant by the
resignation of Mr.. Fletcher.
The retiring superintendent has re-
ceived offers of several positions
but he will take a short rest before go
ing into the active work again.

Capital Stock Of the Chicago Brass
Works Is Increased From $780,
900 to S35O,OOO.
DIRECTORS ANNUAL MEETING.
officials Of the Company Are Reelected
for Another Year-Pres1dent BROKER
and Party inspect the Plant.

The first annual meeting of the OH
GERS and directors of the reorganized
Chicago Brass works was held at the
Office of the company in Chicago
Wednesday afternoon and the meeting
proved to be a most important one.
The most important business of the
meeting was the decision of the
directors to increase the capital stock
of the company from 100000 to $780,
900. This move has been contemplated
for some time and within few days
articles of Incorporation increasing
the stock will be filed with the Sec
rotary of State of Illinois, under
which state the company is regularly
organized.
In speaking of the increase of the
stock one of the officers of the company
stated today that the increase in the
stock had been made on account of the
fact that for many years the company
had been working with much greater
capital than the stock showed. 1t is
more than probable that the invest
ment of the company at present is far
IN advance Oh the du1Ouul SCdICA Al
the new articles.
The afternoon was spent in discuss
ing the plans for the mill during the
year, and while little attention was
given to the proposed additions to the
plant this matter will be taken up
later by the local officials.
At the conclusion of the meeting of
the directors the following officers
were elected for the coming year:
President-Char1es F. BROKER, of
Ansonia, Conn.
Vice President-A. p. Hine, of Tor
rington, Conn.
Secretary-Wa1te Houston, of Chi
cago.
Treasurer and General Manager
F. L. Ellsworth, of Kenosha.
Superintendent of the Mills. A.
Fletcher, of Keuosha.
The mill is being repaired in many
ways and fifteen men are now en-
ployed on the work of painting the in
terror. The change will make vast
difference in the conditions for the
workmen. Many other minor i'm
provements are being planned for the
coming months and some statement of
these improvements will be made later.
The directors were very much graft
fed by the showing that the plant has
made since the new company TOOK
hold and the men in charge in Keno
sha were highly praised for the splen-
did manner in which the plant is be-
ing operated.
