the amount involved. He advised
settlements wherever a settlement
could be perfected, rather than go
to the doubt or expense of trial.
He gave much of his legal knowl-
edge to poor people without charge.
On the bench, and particularly
in the supreme court, was he noted
for his wise and careful construc-
ton of rules of equity and justice
and of the laws of the state. He
preferred justice rather than equity
and law and invariably insisted on
justice where the rules of equity
and law were not seriously impaired.
He was of the old school of attor-
neys who came to the state at an
early age and grew up with the
state-and passed away with as
honorable career as the state has
enjoyed-and as honorable as any
man could wish for at the end oil
life's journey. Young attorneys
can profit by the career of this
noble man.

to subscribe for sufficient of the
stock to give him a controlling in
terest in the company, Rogers hav-
ing had no idea prior to that time
lust how much he would have to
subscribe for in order to secure
control. While the subscription
amounted to $135, 900, 900 the bank
announced that it amounted to three
times that sum, thus allowing Rog
ers and Standard Oil to retain con-
troll, and force the pride of Amalga-
mated down when they wanted to
purchase the outstanding stock and
force it up when they wanted to I'M
load it on the unsuspecting public.
The whole story seems like the

after all, is stranger than fiction,

that it is about time that President

number of Everybody's magazine a

Amalgamated to a rich brown and
you will enjoy reading his roast.
Mr.. Lawson shows the first great
crime of Amalgamated. In previous
articles he shows the plan of flotil-

how the total stock was more than
subscribed for by frenzied people
looking for dollars people re-
siding in America, England, Ger
many and France. While the fren-

of Standard Oil fame informed Law

saw fit, and even at that time, con-
trary to the agreement with Law

would be sold to the public, he an

SAILORS USE TERMS.

 The Curious Lingo Which Passes for Good English Abroad Battleships.
 The time worn growl of the disgrunt- led bluejaeket, Why did I ever sell my farm and go to sea?" shows the trend of the sailors mind toward the peaceful occupation of his rustic broth- CT, and may account for applying terms agricultural to things nautical. The casual visitor to a warship is always mystiied by seeing what ap- pears to be bale of hay in the fore hold, and his curiousity is not abated when told it goes to feed the ''jackass- es," kept, appropriately in the man ger" His shrunken credulity resumes normal dimensions when it is explained that 'jackasses" are canvas bags filled with oakum, which are forced into the hawsepipes to prevent water from en- tering at sea. Neither is Flemish horse a rare breed of equine, nor a bride port" place for bitching him; the former is a. footrope for men to stand upon when furling sail, and the latter is an airport in the bows through which tow ing hawsers used to be led. The sad dle'' of the bowsprit completes the rid ing outfit of the ship.
 The menagerie of a man-o'-war con- tains a "cat" and fish both of which are used to weigh" the anchor; "cat- heads" where the lookout of sailing ships stands his watch; wildcats which. with '.whelps,' hold the chain on the caDstan, and the bees of the bowsprit." On some days 1t is possible to find "catspaw''-a sudden puff of wind-and a landlubber can easily '.catch crab in pulling a boat indeed. it is hard to let one go without unship- ping the car.
 Dog watches are of nightly occur renee between and 8 o'clock, when the usual four hour watch is split into two parts. The dog watches are sup posed to get their name from the fact that they are 'curtailed," and not be- cause the dog star, Sirius, keeps those hours.
 When the gunner orders his mates to .'clean the dashpot,' he is not using polite profanity, but directing the cleaning of a part of the gun recoil cylinder.

Nor do the ''telltales" of the engine room give it away; instead, they peacefully record the revolutions of the screws.

IOWA MANS ADVENTURE.

State Senator J. R. Gorrel. former Mayor. candidate for Congress and general leading citizen of this town, has just written to friends here from Mexico. where he is travelling, of a remarkable adventure he had a few days ago. Driving out on a stage one day to the ranch of an old friend Senator Gorrell was handed huge Winchester by a quiet man who ex- plained that there was $10,OO0 in the safe and that they were liable to be held up.
 They were not held up. and Senator Gorrell was put down safely at the foot of the rtail leading to the cabin of his friend, Caston. He followed the trail to the cabin, and found mo- body inside He climbed up a step ladder to the second floor and lay down on bunk. Tn a few moments. hearing steps, he looked down and saw a huge black bear. In his ex- Fcitement and haste in getting back upstairs he kicked over the ladder; it fell aginst the cabin door, closing and latching 1t, the bear inside.
 Having sniffed around and discover ed that he couldn't escape, the bear soon became angry. Scenting some body upstairs he tried to chamber up. and, after several efforts pulled himself partly through the square hole. Senator Gorrell had found a heavy hatchet and with this he dealt terrific blow at the bears forehead, knocking him sense less. The burte fell down, and Just as he was recovering power to move Cas- ton walked in, In moment the bear was upon him. The struggle was terrific, and Caston was losing the fight when Senator Gorrell leaped down, drew a big revolver from Cas- tons own belt, and was able on the second trial, to shoot the bear dead. Then he turned and shook hands with Caston. whom he had not seen in 20 years.-Newton Correspondence St. Paul Dispatch.

DO PEOPLE LIKE TO BE FOOLED?
 The importer of wines, liquors, cor dials, etc, whose criticism of the ap- plication of the labelling law we pub lished yesterday, said that if French creme de menthe must be labeled pre- pared with aniline dyes, though he ad- mits that it is so prepared, he could say without fear of contradiction that it would ruin the sale of the article Ill this country" i.
 His position is that the quantity of the dye used is so minute as to be en- tirely harmless, it adds nothing to the quality of the article one way or anoth- CT, but those who buy it insist upon the color though they would not buy it if they knew what produced the color. In other words, those who indulge in creme de menthe are either fools or they like to be fooled. This importer said: "The same thing is true of white wines" though he did not make quite clear what he meant. He referred to the use of sulphurous acid either to "sweeten the barrels, or to irnpart something to the flavor or the appearance of the wine. Apparently this something is so attractive to the drinkers of that bev- craze that they must have it, but if they know 1t is produced by sulphurous acid they will not buy the wine.
 So the argument runs through the ga- mutt of blended liquors, adulterated oils, colored cordials and the rest. The adul- terants or ingredients, or coloring mat ter, 1t is claimed, are wholesome, or at least inocuous, and they make the arti- cles attractive to the eye or to the taste, or in some way to the habit and fancy of the buyer; but if they are plainly told by printed labels what these sub stances are they will not buy and the trade will be ruined. So long as they do not know what they are eating or drinking, they are content, but they do not wish to be enlightened. They prefer to be fooled and take the chances.
 We confess that this argument in fa- yor of keeping up fraud and deception does not commend itself to us as a bus. mess policy, to say nothing of it's detes- table moral standard. New York Jour nal of Commerce.

NEW IMPROVED
 STEINERT0hE PIANO
IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT TO
 PURCHASERS.
WITHIN REACH OF ALL.


 The new improved Steinertone piano which is now offered to the public is a success in the art of pianoforte build ing. But it is the low price that rec onlmends 1t. The manufacturer has chosen to sell these instruments at wholesale prices to the retail customers thus saving expenses incurred by the usual dealer and which otherwise would come out of the customers pock- ct Therefore a splendid piano is with in reach Of everyone. It is not the price only that recommends the Steinertone piano to the purchaser. It Is the piano which possesses such fine tonal capaci- ties, unlimited hammer repetition, most delightful feeling of touch and good workmanship.
 The unostentatious warerooIhs of the factory do not stimulate any deceptive acoustic contriyances that are called into play by pianoforte dealers so as to show up an instrument to an advan- tage but artificial. Neither does the Steinertone Company employ skillful pfanists but the purchaser can hear these instruments free of all artificial influences. It is therefore not out of place to invite people and let them see for themselves and to let them get the best pianoforte for the least money. The purchase of a plano entails quite a sum, of money and 1t Is not out of place to fix this in the mind of the purchas- CT to see the wonderful Steinertone at the warerooms.
