Tv.ts Men That Knew.

In an article on Thomas b. Reed II
the Century Henry Cabot Lodge re
calls an anecdote which Reed used tc
tell with glee. 1t was about his exam
nation for admission to the bar Of
California. A young southcrner came
before the judge for examination at
Inc same time. The Judge asked the
southerner If the legal tender acts
were constitutional, and the young
man answered without a moments
hesitation, NO" Then the Judge turn
ca TO Reed and asked him the same
question. Mr.. Reed with equal prompt
ness answered Yes"
Very we'll" said the Judge. "yoU are
Doth admitted. Two men who can
answer that question without hcsita-
tion ought to be admitted to any bar."

ATTACK OF THE GOLD
 FEVER IN SCOTLAND

Edinburg, January 28-(SpeciaL)- Scotland Is having another attack of the gold fever.
 The Duke of Sutherland's gold fields at Kildonan, some miles distant from Helmsdale. In Sutherlandshire, are likely to be reopened after an inter- val of some 40 years. There was a great rush during the year 1S70-71 to this outlying part of Scotland, when an Australian digger. named Gilchrist re- turning to his native country, made the discovery of a nice little three to four ounce nugget in one of the upland streams running into the Brora river and there after set to work with considerable suc- cess washing out gold from the neigh boring "burns" and tributaries But the present dukes father closed the workings, owing, 1t is said, to the "undesirables' roaming over their pre- serves.
 Some 20 years later another effort was made. but on this occasion the work was stopped b ythe advice of geol- ogists, who said that gold was not there in paying quantities, that it was not to be found in the matrix, but only in the washings from the de- posits of running streams, and that the origin of even this came from the gla- ciers of prehistoric times. That opln- nfon was not convincing to many prac- tica1 diggers with experience and now that a perfectly fair trial Is likely to be given it will soon be ascertained if gold deposits in payable quantities lie in the Kildonan district

TERRIBLE OUTCOME
 OF HOLIDAY JOKE

Rome. January 2s.-(special.) .)-The ter rible outcome of a holiday joke is re. ported from the wilds of Sicily.

 The two women did not reply, but point ed their harmless, unloaded weapons straight at the frightened steward.
 Savarino then fired two shots. One killed the younger woman and the other seriously injured her aunt. On discover ing his mistake Savarino took to his heels. He is still hiding.
