SPOONER'S FAT FEE.
How Wisconsin Senator Made Three
Quarters of Million.
He Liked Baseball and That Is Why
He IL Very Rich Man Now
A Good story Even IL
Overdrawn.

Senator John g. SpoOner, of Wiscon-
sin, Is devoted to baseball, but there are
few men who have turned a single bail
game to account to the tune OF sl50,0o0.
But that's what he did once, according
to the Chicago Journal. AS he tells it,
he was sitting on fence, In the little
New England town whore he spends his
summers, watching game, when for
tune came to him in the disguise Of a
shabby man with a hard-luck story.
Ordinarily the senator would not have
had time TO listen to the hard-luek plea
but as he could watch the game and listen
simultaneously, he told the man to fire
away.
The stranger said he was passing
through town and wanted to interest the
senator, in his capacity of lawyer. in the
case of his sister, who was living in abb
ject poverty in Boston with several chill
dren dependent on her and no means for
SUPPORT. He went on to explain that his
sister had married a barkeeper of that
city. and that her husband had been very
successful and had finally become inter-
estsd in number of hotels and that he
was a millionaire. With his change Of
fortunes he had taken to dissipation, and
finally had abandoned his family and
was living with another woman who
claimed to be his wife
Senator Spooner listened. but con-
fesses he was not much impressed with
the story The stranger said neither he
nor his sister had any none 10 pay a
lawyer. but that they were anxious TO
have Senator Spooner look after the
case, and urged that he take it on con-
tingent fee, which would be half of what
he could get for the abandoned wife.
The senator remarked that he would see
about it, and took the address OF the
woman in Boston, who was said to be
deserted, and thought little more about
it.
1t CHANGED, however, that Senator
Spooner was in Boston short time after

Does Not want Wnr Although

That the Colombian government is
humoring the warlike sentiment Of the
people by making pretense Of an inn

of rumor The Bogota newspapers have
published long appeal from Presi-

OF the army for the coming war. 1t was
reported in January that the Colombian
government had bought an American
steamer or two, and was negotiating for
others at New Orleans and San Fran

them for purposes of transport. The
action of the United States at the present
time must be limited to guarding the
railroad and preventing the landing of
troops near either terminus of the line.
Colombia's moving of soldiers and sup
plies to portions of her own territory,
whether islands or mainland, in the
vicinity of Panama would meet with no
interference from our government.
Thus, some weeks ago the Colombians
landed considerable number of troops
on the island known as Old Providence
without opposition from our navy. The
people of that island have since petit
toned the republic of Panama to annex
them, but their request has been denied,
on the ground that Panama has no
means for protecting them in an emer-
gency. Several hundred Colombian
troops, early in January, also were
landed on st. Andrews island, which, al
though we'll to the northward and lying
off the coast of Nicaragua, like Provi-
dence island, happens to belong to Co
lombia. This island, also, seeks annex
alton to Panama.

In his interview with the wife she as

bare living, enough to keep off want
from herself and children. In a day or
two he had telegram from the Chicago
attorney saying to come at once, that all
the statements made were true, and that
a settlement ought to be attempted at

A trip was made to Boston. Wife No.

with amazement of the existence of a
