Claim Agents
Trials.

4 north Missouri farmer, whose hog
Was killed by train, wrote the com
pany's claim agent for a settlement. Be-
ing somewhat of poet, he penned his
communication thcs:
Ny razorback strolled down your track
A week ago today;
Your 70 came down the line
And snuffed his light away.
You can't blame me e-the hog you see,
Slipped through cattle gate,
So kindly pen check for ten,
The debt to liquidate.
He was rather surprised n few days
later to receive the following:
Ola 90 came down the line
And killed your hog We know;
But razorbacks on railroads tracks
Quite often meet with woe.
Therefore, my friend, we cannot send.
The check for which you pine,
Just plant the dead; place over his head
~Here lies foolish swine"

Heavy Traffic East
and West.

great many trains bearing delega-
tions to the G. A. II. national encamp.
ment which convenes at San Francisco
next Monday, the 18th, have and will pass
through this week.
In planning to take the trains through
90 time the officials Of the Southern Pa.
cflc Company have had to carefully con-
slider the welfare of the California fruit
growers, who at this particular time of
the year are husily engaged in getting
their products to the Eastern markets.
To allay the fears of the fruit men the
company has sent out letters assuring
them that the company has adopted a
plan which will guarantee their ship
ments Of fruit against delay. 1t is pro-
posed to have immediate reports made
of the arrival and departure of special
trains at Grand junction, Ogden, Den
yer and Salt Lake, so that their progress
westward may be anticipated and con-
gestion of trains prevented along the
lines, as has been the experience of the
Southern Pacific Company on several
occasions in the past. Every piece OF
available rolling stock is to be utilized
in facilitating Western traffic, and even
number of engines at present engaged
in construction work on the Ogden-Lu-
Gin cutoff are to be temporarily assigned
to service Oh the main road during the
heaviest Of the travel. By avoiding a
congestion of trains and keeping the
specials running on certain schedule
the Southern Pacific will endeavor to
give the freight trains clear way and
insure the safety Of California fruits des
tined for eastern markets.

1.-THE Holy City,

Thirty men, red.eyed and disheveled,
lined up before Judge OF the San
Francisco Police Court. 1t was the
regular morning company of "drunks
and disorderlies' Some were old and
hardened, others hung their heads in
shame. just as the momentary disorder
attending the bringing in OF the prison
ers quieted down, strange thing hap
pened. A strong, clear voice from below
began singing:
Last night lay a. sleeping,
There came dream so fair.
Last night 1t had been for them all
a nightmare or q drunken stupor. The
song was such contrast to the horrible
fact that no one could fail of a sudden
shock at the thought the song suggest.
ed.
l stood in old Jerusalem,
Beside the temple there,
the song went on. The Judge had
paused. He made quiet inquiry. A for
mer member of famous opera company,
who was known all over the country, was
awaiting trial for forgery. 1t was he
who was singing in his cell.
Meantime the song went on; and every
man in the lire showed emotion. One
or two dropped on their knees; one boy
at the end of the line, after desperate
effort at self control, leaned against the
wall, buried his face against his folded
arms, and sobbed, ''Oh, mother, mother"
The sobs, cutting to the very heart
the men who heard, and the song, still
yelling its way through the courtroom,
blended in the hush.
At length one man protested. Judge,
said he, "have We got to submit to this?
We're here to take our punishment, but
this He, too, began to sob.
1t was impossible to proceed with the
business of the Court, yet the Judge
gave no order to stop the song. The
Police Sergeant. after an effort to keep
the men in line, stepped back md wait.
ed with the rest, The song moved on to
its CLIMAX:
Jerusalem, Jerusalem! Sing, for the
night is DER!
Hosanna in the highest! hosanna for
esermorel
In an an ecstasy of melody the last
words rang out. and then there was 81
ience.
The Judge looked into the faces OF the
men before him. There was not one
who was not touched by the song; not
one in whom some better impulse was
not stirred. He did not call the cases
singly-a kind word of advice, and ne
dismissed them all. No man was fined
or sentenced to the work house that
morning. The song had done more
good than punishment could possibly
have accomplished.-Youth's Compan-

When in the year 1883 Senator w. A.
Clark Of Montana purchased the United
Verde he had not even the faintest idea
that be had become the owner of one OF
the hslf-dozen greatest copper mines in
the world. Senator Clark bought as he
believed, small gold and silver mine,
and not being as wealthy in those days
as he is now, he was not at all sure but
that he paid more for the property than
it was worth. 1t is interesting to know
that out of the "small gold and silver
niue" about 100000 worth of copper
has been taken, within all probability

THEEIGHT HOUR
LAW.
Highly Probable
That it will be
Sustained by
Supreme
Court.

The appeal Of VIM. Boyce Of Silver
City, convicted of violation of the
eight hour law, came up before the Su-
preme Court On Monday afternoon. The
opening address on behalf OF the law
was by Attorney General Sweeney, who
made an oral argument lasting two hours.
The effort was brilliant one, ind show
ed the evit ences of hard and conscien-
tious work-work into which the speak
er had thrown his heart. The working
men OF Nevada have cause to feel proud
OF the confidence they displayed in Gen
eral Sweeney when they elected him last
November.
The Attorney General was followed by
+. p. LangaD OF this city and John Muir
ply OF Denver, attorney for the Western
Federation of Miners. Mr.. Langan
made an able defence OF the law, and
Mr. Murphy who successfully champion
ed similar measure before the Supreme
Court of Utah, showed an extraordinary
familiarity with his subject. The argu-
ment on behalf of the law was resumed
yesterday morning by II. F. Bartine,
who in his logical and scholarly style,
finished the bombardment OF the argu-
ments of the opposition.
or the attorneys who opposed the
measure, it is only just to say that
Messrs. Huffaker aud Chartz made the
most OF very weak cause.
Those who listened to the presenta-
ton of the case are almost unanimous
of the opinion that the Court will hand
down decision sustaining the eight
hour law.
From Today's Carson Appeal.)
Yesterday the argument pro and con
in the Habeas Corpus contest regarding
the Eight hour law was finished before
the Supreme Court. The State, through
Attorney General Sweeney, asked for
ten days in which to file briefs, which
was granted. The defense asked the
same time which was allowed. Attorney
General Sweeney made one of the ablest
arguments that was used before the
Court, he representing the State and
contcnding that the law as it is before
the people and passed last winter, is
constitutional.
From the present outlook it will be
several months before the case is given
to the people by the Court, as 1t is now
in the preliminary stage and each side
has been granted time to file briefs
From the amount of argument al ready
used in the case the attorneys have
pretty well threshed out The question OF
coustitutionali,y of the contested meas
ure.

Better Than We Know How

Doing as we'll as we know how is ore
dinarily considered a pretty creditab,e per.
Torrance. One who can honestly say that
he has done as we'll as he knows how
is likely to take credit to himself for his
doing; and, in passing Judgment on an
other for his conduct, we are inclined to
commend him if he, or if we, can say that
he has done as well as he knows how. Yet
inst here is common mistake OF man
kind. All of lis ought to do better than
we know how. Doing only as we'll as we
know how may be lack and failure on
our part. ,,
ing better than ones best, is the duty and
the practical attainment of every person
VINO wants to fill his place in the world
and to help his fellows as he should. One
who expects to be limited, in his work
and in his endeavors. by the best that ne
has done, or by the best that others have
done, or by what he can do, is practically
without the noblest ambition. and certain.
" without the highest aspirations. 10

the ordinary and the commonplace.
All substantial progress is by dong

explorer and discoverer and inventor and

lands and on all seas and in all the ages.
has secured to the world and to MS tel

value, and has proved himself benefac;
tor of his race, because he was not limited
