FuL-ToE,s FIRST FARE.
An Incident which the steamboat
Genius Never Forgot.

AN incident WHICH the Steamboat
Genius Never Forgot.
Is There was one little incident in Rob-
5ert Fulton's life which Fulton never
forgot. It took place shortly before the
return trip Of his famous boats voy-
age by steam up the Hudson river. AT
the time all Albany focked to the
wharf to see the strange craft, but SO
timorous were they that few cared to
board her. One gentleman, however,
not only boarded her, but sought out
Fulton, whom he found in the cabin,
md the following conversation took
place:
4sEhis is Mr.. Fulton, presume?'
Yes, sir
do you return to New York with
this boat ~
4 eve shall try to get back. sir
HHave you any objection to my re-
turning with you ~
II you wish to take your chances
with us, sir, have no objection
What is the fare?'
After moments hesitation Fulton
replied, "Six dollars And when that
amount was laid in his hand he gazed
at it a long time, and two big tears
rolled down his cheeks. Turning to the
passenger, he said: a
Excuse me, sir, but this is the first
pecuniary reward have received for
all my exertion in adapting steam to
navigation: would gladly commemo-
rate the occasion with little dinner,
but / am too poor now even for that
If we meet again trust it will not be
the case" #s
As history relates, the voyage termi-
mated successfully. -Four years later
Fulton was sitting in the cabin Of the
sClermont, then called the North River,
when a gentleman entered. Fulton
glanced at him and then sprang up and
gladly shook his hand It was his first
passenger, and over pleasant little
dinner Fulton entertained his guest
with the history Of his success and
ended with saying that the first actual
recognition Of his usefulness to his fel.
low men was the So paid to him by his
4 first passenger.

college president that he was off for
Europe to get some cigarettes. He had
been there the year before and had
smoked certain brand which suited
him. Three weeks later the boy re-
turned from Europe and reappeared at
the college, with several trunks full of
cigarettes. n

4 God-Given Medicine

Rev. John G.. Orebaugh,

says that DUFFY'S PURE
MALT WFiISkEY is a Cod
Given Medicine.
Thousands Of temperance advocates
and clergymen throughout the coun-
try agree with DR.. Orebaugh, and
have the courage of their convictions,
to recommend DUFFY'S PURE
MALT WH1SKEY as the greatest
tonic stimulant and body-builder
known to science.
II have suffered from irregular
appetite, diarrhoea, then constipation,
abnormal temperature, often below
normal; at times the memory is dull

as beverage, but have. always believed
that PURE whiskey used as a medi-
cine was a God Given one. / NEVER

A Constant Creator.

Z.
This man worked. Every day he did
a days work in his Offices. 1t is said Of
him that he applied himself with dill
gence to his profession during the,
working hours of the day throughout
his career. His visible works are proof
of this He could not have achieved
such results without intense applica
ton. He was lifelong producer, a
constant creator. His works live after
him. The good that he did in produe-
ing masterpieces of architecture for
the enjoyment of all who see them
cannot be inferred with his bones.
So notable were the works of Stan
ford White that he became popularity
known even in the thronging metropo-
lis where he lived and wrought. And
among the other artists, the painters
the actors, the men Of letters. he was
well and widely known. Enjoying the
financial fruits Of his genius while he
lived, Stanford White had money to
spend, and he spent it. Everything
that he desired was his for the price,
and he had the price. After his days
work he played From the shrine OF
art he turned to the shrine of nature,
where also he worshiped beauty That
was his pastime and his passion.
Shocked the Country.
Observed from any viewpoint the
Thaw- White tragedy is a sorrowful
story. Its elimination shocked the city
and vibrated throughout the country
Tales that were told of both men after.
the killing continued the vibrations Of
the shock They made men and women
of even and average lives shudder.
These tales may be true or untrue.
One cannot help but wish, however,
that there might be some sort Of law
to require that every ablebodied boy
be brought up to do some useful work
Of hand or head. It might be even an
unwritten law of sufficiently compel
ling strength. The average person is
OF opinion that Harry Thaw smoked
too many cigarettes for his own good
and the good Of society, of which he is;
necessarily a part Since the unwritten
law depended upon by Lawyer Delmas
Is chiefly a matter Of sentiment and IT'S
application in a concrete instance q
matter OF persuasive oratosy, it may
be argued at the trial that Stamford
White, who worked and produced, had
more right to continue his life than
Harry Thaw, who idlea and consumed.
Human society has progressed far
from the period when the naked man
married the naked woman by hitting
her over the head with d club and
dragging her to his cave and then pro-
tected his right to her By hitting the
other naked man over the head with
the same club. Yet society Is still Inn
perfect.
! We wear clothes now. We live III
houses created by architects. We wed
by mutual consent. Still under certain
circumstances two men and one wo-
man spell tragedy. And the clothed
man, having pocket, carries his inn

ment opened. The jury was taken from

The immunity plea hinges on the admis-

South Indiana Railroad Company. With

able to prove its contention, and the
prosecution against Walsh may fall fat
If the books are allowed 20 be entered

are third person evidence and cannot be

In reply, the government contends the
books and records are the property OF
Walsh. because ne controlled and owned
the Southern Indiana Railroad. To the
contention, the bankers lawyers reply
that they cannot be admitted. as that
would be a violation Of the United States
Constitution in forcing Walsh TO produce
