HIS REVENGE.

| In the small compartment for smok-
ers at the rear end of train going
out of Norfolk. few weeks ago sat
three commercial travellers, and an old
| farmer whose dilapidated exterior
made very plausible the story he told
the conductor.
I'm only poor lone man." he said,
with tears in his eyes Il haven't a
cent in the world. But my daughter
is dying"-here he almost broke down
-"and want to see her. Please don't
put me off. It's only sixty miles"
Nothing doing" said the conductor,
though with touch of pity. Orders
are orders. You'll have to get off at
the first station"
Its all right, conductor" said one
of the drummers. "Il pay for him.
How much?" And he drew a roll of
bills.
Not on your life!" cried the farmer
thank you just the same, though.
And, drawing out his own rather nb-
stantial roll, he paid his fare. The
conductor grinned and passed on.
Gentleman, owe you an explana-
tion," said the farmer to his astonish-
ed companions. Five years ago this
darn railroad ran over one of my cows
ran over her in broad daylight, before
witnesses. I sued the company for
forty dollars, but their cussed lawyers
beat me out of it. Since then I've been
tryin' to get my forty every way
could, and, by hook or crook, I've beat
'em out of thirty-seven of it. 1t was
the other three I was tryin' for just
now. "-Harper's Weekly.

| The proclamation of Governor
Buchtel on the death of Judge Charles
F. Caswell is in full as follows. 1t
| is q most wholesome tribute to the
honored dead:
The Honorable Charles F. Cas-
we'll, a Judge of the Supreme Court
of Colorado, died on Thursday morn
ing November 21st, 1907, at 8
O'Clock Judge Caswell was the son
of Cornelius E. Caswell, farmer
of Strafford, New Hamshire, and
Betsy Thurston Chase. He was born
at Strafford on May 10, 1851. He
was a student at the Franklin Acad-
emy and at the Northwood Seminary
where he was prepared for Dart
mouth College. He was graduated
at Dartmouth in 1874 and was a
member of the Delta Kappa Epsilon
fraternity. Subsequently he studied
law in Lynn, Massachusetts and was
admitted to the bar in 1877. He
practiced law for four years in Mass
achusetts and then came to Colorado
in 1881. He first resided in Middle
Park in Grand County where he en-
gagged in the practice of his profess
sion and was Interested in mining.
In 1884 he went to Grand Junction
where he resided continuously until
he was elected to the high office of
Justice of the Supreme Court in the
Fall of 1906. During all the years
of his life at Grand Junction he was
engaged in the practice of his pro-
fession. During almost the entire
time he served as County Attorney
of Mesa County. He had a very
large clientage. He was attorney
for all the railroads and for other
large corporations in Grand juno
tion. He was one of the pioneer
fruit growers in Mesa County and
greatly enjoyed visiting his fruit
farm as a relief from the exacting
demands of his law practice. He
was chairman of the Mesa County
delegation to the state convention
of the political party with which
he was identified quite every year
during his residence in Grand juno
tion. He was twice a delegate to
national conventions. He was
delegate to the national convention
in June of 1904 at which Theodore
Roosevelt was nominated for the
presidency. He was then a member
of the Committee which was ap-
pointed to notify President Roose-

Tenney Gray. daughter of Judge
Barzillai Gray of Kansas City.
Judge Caswell was known in all
the courts of Colorado as a lawyer
of exceptional strength. He was a
man of grave demeanor and marked
persoifai modesty. He was intense
ly loyal to his friends. At the time
of his election the Grand Junction

4 him as a lawyer: You could never
think of Judge Caswell in his prac-
tice in the courts as a petti-fogger
He had the highest ideals regarding
the practice of the great profession
of the law and endeavored to live
up to those Ideals"
One of his associates Of the Su-
preme Court says to him: He was
always clear In thought, and vigorous
and clear in expression. One mark
ed element of his character was the
fact that under a somewhat dignified
and severe exterior, he carried a
gentle heart He was always con-
siderate of the rights of others and
was careful to avoid saying anything
which would wound the feelings or
give pain to other people. He loved
animals. He had very high sense
OF duty. He has been under the doc
tors care for several months and
felt that he ought to go away for a
rest. He talked about going to
Grand Junction for a visit. but his
sense of duty kept him steadily at
work IL the Supreme Court on ac-
count of the crowded condition of
the docket. He was known in politi-
cal conventions and in courts and in
business as a mar whose word could
be relied on. He kept his pledges.
The impression he made in every
court where he practiced was that
he took a very high view of his pro-
fession. He was never known to
make any effort to deceive the
court. He was thoroughly honest in
the expression of his views. He had
lawyer like grasp of his cases and
presented all his cases in a strong
way. He had the rare faculty of
stopping when he was done. The
members of the Supreme Court great
ly appreciated his counsel as he
seemed always eager to ascertain
what was right in the complex Ques-
tions which come to the Supreme
Court"

young attorneys to come west. He
did not come here for the purpose of
engaging in mining, burt went direct

law. While his residence was not
fixed In this city, he nevertheless
had such business that attracted him

Four Feet of Ore in Brighton.

Idaho Springs, Colo.-In drifting
west in the fourth level of the Brigh-
ton mine four feet of ore has been
opened at a distance of 500 feet west
of the shaft. This is supposed to be
the same ore body encountered in the
third level, but is wider and of higher
value. AS the McClelland tunnel is now
close to the Freeland vein it is pro.
posed to extend the tunnel for the en-.
tire length of the Freeland and through

Brighton property.
In the same section an ore body Of
great width and value has been opened
in the Old Stag mine, operated by How
ard Evans. In sinking the shaft he
broke into the old Oneida ore body
and with drifting now has an immense
reserve of ore.
The Oneida claim, adjoining, had an
immense body near the surface, and

New York Goes to the Dogs.

New York-Dogs are to be used to
assist the New York police department
in running down criminals. Whether
the animals are to be bloodhounds,
sheep dogs or Newfoundlands has not
been definitely decided.
This is the substance of an an
nouncement made at police headCuar-
ters by Fourth Deputy Commissioner
Arthur Woods. The use of the dogs is
contingent upon the complete success
of experiments now being carried On in
a city of about 10000 population up
state. But so decided have been the
results thus far achieved that prac-
tically no doubt exists as to the en-
ployment of the animals.
Eventually there are to be about 100
dogs in the service of the city. They
will be distributed through the differ
ent boroughs according to the needs
Naturally those sections that have long
patrols and comparatively few police
men will be the ones to be supplied
first, although it is planned so as to
arrange matters that several trained
dogs can be put on a case at a few
moments notice.
