A certain member of the Pittsburg
stock exchange has set his nephew up
in business three times, but the young
man lacks something essential to sue
cess in the line selected for him, and
has failed with each effort
When he recently appeared before
the uncle with his fourth request, the
latter said:
you must learn to lean on yourself.
l can't carry you all my life. I'll tell
you what I'll do. You owe me a great
deal as the result of your last failure.
Pitch in on your own hook and go it
alone till you pay off those debts.
When you've done that, TIL give you
a check for what they amount to. Such
an experience will do you more good
than all the money l could give you
now.'
Two months later the nephew walked
in with every claim receipted in full.
and the uncle was so delighted that he
gave the promised check.
"How did you manage it. Howard?"
he asked, after an expression Of con-
graduation.
II borrowed the money" replied

MUST PAY FARE
OR LEAVE
TRAIN
Special to The Herald.

Special to The Herald.
ST. LOUIS, March 30.-That rail-
road company has the right to eject
passenger from train after he has re-
fused to pay fare, Notwithstanding that
he or a third person, after the first re-
fusal, tenders payment, is the import
of a decision handed down in damage
suit by the United States court of ap-
peals.
The case was that of William Smith
against the Missouri, Kansas & Texas
Railroad company. 1t came up from
the court of appeals of the Indian Ter
ritory. Smith got a verdict for $4,000
against the railroad when the case was
first tried before a jury in the district
court, this judgment being later af-
| firmed by the territorial court of APP
peals. The case has been reversed and
remanded for new trial
Smith was riding on a passenger
train between Choteau and Pryor
Creek, I. T. Upon his refusal to pay
his fare, the conductor had signaled
the train to stop and was proceeding to
put him off, when third person vol
unteered to pay Smiths fare to the
next station. The conductor rejected
this offer and put Smith off, with the
statement that he had been put off
several times before. Smith had no
money to pay his fare, but contended
that he had entered the train under the
mistaken but honest belief that he
would be carried to his destination.
The trial court instructed the jury
that the conductor could not refuse the
offer of fare, no matter by whom made.
This, the court of appeals holds, was
an error, and says, in the opinion by
Judge Van Devanter:
I'm the absence Of statute bearing
on the matter, when a passenger fails
to pay fare after a reasonable time he
forfeits the rights of a passenger, and
subjects himself to election. There Is
some eontrariety Of opinion respect
ing the effect of a subsequent tender,
but the better rule is that when the
first refusal is willful and persistent
the passenger cannot recant and there
by entitle himself to transportation"
