How Lincoln Won His Case.

an Illustration: he was appointed to
defend n charged with murder h
crime was a brutal one, the evidence
entirely circumstantial; the accused a.
stranger. Feeling was high and against
the friendless defendant. On the trial
Lincoln drew from the witnesses full
statements of what they saw and knew.
There was no effort to confuse, no at
tempt to place before the jury the facts
other than they were. In the argu-
ment, after calling attention to the fact
that there was no direct testimony.
Lincoln reviewed the circumstances,
and after conceding that this and that,
seemed to point to defendants guilt,
closed by saying that he had reflected
much on the case, and while it seemed
probable that the defendant was guilty.
he was not sure; and looking the Jury
straight In the face said, care you pr

erWard the real crimina was detected
and punished. How different would
have been the conduct of many law
ysrs! Some would nave striven to lead
the judge n technical errors with a
view to an appeal to a higher court.
Others would have become hoarse in
pronunciation of witnesses, deriving the
lack OF positive testimony and the mar
Velous virtue of a reasonable doubt.

two bottles Of Cutlcura ResolventI

stseple Jack Risked His Life.

III us new YORK American.
A steeple Jack risked his life Tuesday
by climbing up the steep wall of =
building at No. 46 University place
duplicating, in a fashion,, the daring of
another of his profession who scaled
the FIatiron building last week. and
All to stop the ringing of a burglar
alarm that was keeping the guests Of
a asfioIable hotel awake.
Ihe alarm placed over the windows
OF the chase and SoloW Skirt company
az the fourth story, went off at .
o'clock in he morning. Across the
street Is the Hotel Albert.
Ihe guests We're awakened by the
ringing, despite the fact
that the police found no evidence az
burglars. Every effort to reach the in
and stop it failed. EMPLOYEES
OF n motel brought out a ladder and
TWO slender poles each a story in
height. A young man in the crowd
volunteered to mount the ladder. By
bracing the two poles together he was
able to poke the alarm with the end
most one. This caused the ringing
to stop, but the the pole was
Withdrawn the alarm began again to
ring. -
Things were reaching a serious sta %
at the hotel when the young man who
q first volunteered startled the snec-
tators by climbing hand over ncnd IN
the wall OF the building. He J
alarm and before the crowd rnev
what he was about had the alarm
gagged He had to hold onto a ,.or-
nice with n hand. while he put he
pole IN place with the other.
The steeple Jack said his name was
Joe" Cahill. He came here 4 few
weeks ago from Norfolk, Va. and lives
at No. $50 Blocker street. His hnai-
ness Is climbing flagpoles.

HANDLING COLTS.
Establish Your Mastery While the An.
imal Is Youno.

Establish Your Mastery While the An.
imaI Is Young.
So much has been said about the
breaking of colts that it hardly seems
as If there is anything else to say, but
the Importance Of the subject is full
justification for a repetition of what
may have been said. What is a horse
worth unless he has good manners and
Is under full subjection2 Without these
ne should be put to sucll use as will
not require them in any great meas
ure, but surely he should not be used
except by the best horsemen. Some
there are Others who will have trouble
with the best. Such a man should be
careful to get only the kind that is well
broken and has good manners, and let
the other fellow that think he can
handle n Of them have the bad ones
at what they are worth, and we can
nearly always find someone who will
take the chances.
1t Q feel as If you cannot break a
morse or a colt, do not try it, for he
Will discover your fears very quickly.
II you have any eason to fear you
cannot master the colt, better get help
or sell him unbroken before taking the
chances Of spelling him and thu max
ing so much harder to The
ideal way Is to begin with the little
fellow while yet weak and establish
your mastery. Keep at it until he Is
OLD enough to hitch, and the breaking
will be easy. Establish the kind Of.
rear that Will keep him from violating
your commands or disregarding your
authority, but not the kind Of fright
That Will cause him to flee at sight of
you and make it necessary to corner
him in order to halter him. I have seen
men IN charge Of a bunch Of colts who
We're SO brutal to the little fellows that
a comfortable box stall and plenty of
good feed would not induce them to
run the gauntlet" Of passing their
keeper to get In out Of a violent win
ter storm. And it was my fortune to
have the same colts to break when the
time came. After. two or three years
OF that kind of treatment, do you think
they ever forgot it? No. Fear was so
thoroughly imbedded in their natures
that they forgot it. 1t might not
pc out OF place to state that that farm
to incur the extra expense of driy-
ing them from one to three years be-
iofe they were safe to sell, and a num-
per OF them were never safe, which
was principally on account of the bru-
TAI treatment they had received the
1lrst two years OF their existence.
Whlle l am always sorry to see any /
KIND OF animal abused, 1t is true I have !
mad a few colts to break that had come
70 that point where it seemed that
only a good sound whipping would re-
duce them to subsection. Kindness and
coaxing might have Accomplished the
work IN time, but men do not like TO
pay the trainer for coaxing and pet
ling their colts into submission when
It seems like an endless job. Whether

Or shows a disposition to be headstrong
and mean, he be brought under
by some method before he

1t is a bad sign. Too many feed lots
are empty this winter, and too much
