BRADISH’S TEN STRIKE. jls MUHon-Dollar Invention Spoiled by a Great Greedy Fish. From, the Chicago I'ribune. Old lice Bradish was an inveterate fisher nan, and if he had any scientific education could have been an inventor and made his nark —though for that matter he always cade his mark anyhow. And while sitting n bis boat, watching the sportive bob and ilently munching his favorite brand of dug tobacco, his busy bram teemed with nterprises of gigantic proportions. He had i! ways had it in mind to astonish the world vith some wonderful production of his rf-nius, for which his unalterable price was to $ t,(XX), COO. For a time he had endeavored o interest Mrs. Bradish in these plans, but ihat matter-of-fact woman was somewhat iceptical of her husband’s abilities, and could usually respond to his glowing prog nostications with more or less pointed refer ,uce to splitting wood or other humiliating •bores about the house. ' Old Ike had attended a philosophical lec iur„ somewhere, at which the professor had eld up a glass tube filled with water, with ii, thumb over the top. So long as the humb was kept in place the water re named in the tul>e, though the lower end of lie tube was open. Upon this principle old ke had endea ored to perfect a pump chichi.would raise its own water, and de rated weeks to its perfection. At last it cas all complete; the column of water was •etained in the pipe, and the old fellow's icart beat a regular gallop as he turned the 'aucet in anticipation of a constantly-flow ng well. But, instead of the water rush ng out of the faucet, the air rushed in, ajid ;he inventor's hopes sank with the water utothe wash-tub. A turbine water-wheel that was to-be iriven by the water it pumped proved an ther miserable failure, and for nearly a fear the old man was in the dumps. At last, however, he struck his gait. He ja*d observed that the sports who lame to Ssh demurred at the cost of boat-hire, and le reasoned that nobody could enjoy a day’s when they were all the time re ninded that the boat was costing 35c. an lour, while hour after hour sped by and they ‘never caught a clam.” Old Ike set the naohinery of his fertile brain to work, ami it last “struck” it. Observing the greatest iecrecy in all his movements, lest some sharper should get the idea and secure a latent ahead of liim, he set to work. Days went by, and all else was neglected. Mrs. Bradish fairly stormed at the way “the old soot was allowin’ things to go to rack and ruin,” but it didn’t budge the old mau; he stuck to bis little shop. At length one day the old man issued from his retreat. He had incubated, and brought forth a pair of extension stilts! With these under one arm and a long sit ting-pole and fishing rod in hand he took his way to the sloping banks of the lake. Fast ening on the stilts he began wading out. As the water increased in depth and came nearer jus feet he would lean upon the pole and put in another extension. The stilts were made 30 feet high, and when nearly a mile from shore Old Ike took up a position, wet his lips from a bottle of cold tea, took a fresh chew, spit on his bait, and cast in. For fifteen minutes he laughed as though his heart would break, not caring a copper whether he ever caught a fish or not. The thine was n success, and he needn't ever do another day’s work. But at taut moment he got a bite! And it seemed as though it must be a whale. He was draw-n forward by the struggle of tlic fish and the sitting pole fell from under him. Luckily some boys in a small boat, at tracted by the strange spectacle of a man sitting serenely fishing in 30 feet of water, nearly a mile from shore, were bearing down on the spot, and happily were just in time. They seized hold of the two long extension legs that has been gyrating in the air for some moments, and at last found Old Ike at theend of them. He was not dead, but decid edly discouraged. SOUTHINGTON’S SLUGGER. He Slaps the Face of One of John L. Sullivan’s Star Combination. From the Boston Globe. New Haven, Conn., May 26.—John L. Sullivan, the noted pugilist, who was re cently challenged by Jake Kilrain, received another challenge this morning, and from a Connecticut man, too. The champion re fused to accept it, -however. The manner in which the challenge was given is as fol lows: , Among the large crowd that assembled at the union depot this morning to see Sullivan was an old man from Southington. He was attired in a suit similar to “Dr.” Chesley’s navy blue costume. Ou liis head he wore a Panama hat, the brim of which was, on one side, tom from the crown, and hung grace fully over his •ight car. In one hand he carried a large yellow cane, which gave him the regular Yale. 'SI, appearance Like the others, the old man was very anxous to ob tain n look tit the champion, and in order to do this he cravled up the steps of the car in which Sullivan and his troupe were sitting. The crowd which clustered about the door M the car allowed the old limn to enter and gratify his curiosity. As soon as he entered the ear the champion and his crowd noticed that the old man had been indulging in too frequent potations and was fast succumbing to the influence of the liquid which givetli color to the whisky glass, and they laid themselves out t< > have some fun with him. Iff* advanced to the seat where Sullivan was sitting and asked if he addressed the cham pion. ' Yes.” said John, “ray name is Sullivan.” “Then it’s glad to meet you that I am,” Saul the granger from Southington. “Give nie your hand. Mr. Sullivan.” * John extended his hand to the stranger. At this time tlie remainder of the troupe, who were convulsed with laughter at the actions 'and talk of the granger, could not refr-ain from roaring. This made the coun ti-yioan mad and he turned about. "Slice here," he said, in a thick voice, “ye pack of rapscallions, if you’re a-poking fun at me you'd better stop it, and right away, •u?' I served this country in the war, and 111 be gol domed if I don’t help to clean you fellows out of the State. I’ll show you that you fellows can’ come here to Connecticut and run the State to suit yourselves, and if yon try to do it. I'll oppose you. You're nothing but a pack of devils.” One of the troupe opened his lips to make some reply to the stranger, but the heavy hand of the granger slapped the athlete Across the mouth. “Shut up now,” he said. “Don't you go giving back talk to James B. Lea, or I'll smash your mouth.” Sullivan saw that this disturbance was attracting considerable attention from the bystanders, so lie told the boys to stop jaughim; and let Lea leave the car. But .fore to* went he turned to Sullivan and said: ‘Sullivan. I’ve Shook hands with you and count you as one of my friends, but I ain’t uo more afraid of you than I am of your wrelmgs, If you think you can fool with ie you re mistaken, for I’ll defend myself oiin niv country from you and your gung. iou think that you’re a great man, but if j/’h want to fight, como here,” and lieu tl.rcwdown his cane und commenced to di *<*t. himself of his hat and coat. Ho was finally removed from the car, but he went no further than the platform, "/' ero .he lood and shook his fist nt the champion until the train left the dejiot. 1 he last ‘liat was seen of the doughty Lea v v l as Kitting in the smoking car of a j'orthampten road train and was asking im ° ~I PI occupants i f they thought that my of the great sports would back Inin agin SullifUn.” The match, if it ever pomes off, Will, no doubt, be very interest-- hg.

How Gen. Lew Wallace Was Given the Turkish Mission. Thomas H. Nichol, of New York, thus writes to the Louisville Courier-Journal: I have just happened to read your grateful and merited tribute to Gen. Lew Wallace and the famous book “Ben Hur.” Indulge me in a bit of the queer history that may have had an influence in making the fame of a book and the fortune of an author. A few- days after Gen. Garfield was inaugu rated President, I w-as taken sick, and while confined in my room in the Ebbett House, at Washington, wanting something to read, I sent to Mrs. Tyner’s room and askod her to lend me something to read. She sent me a number of books, among them “Ben Hur.” When I got able to be out I was up to the White House one evening to dinner. Presi dent Garfield asked me while we were din ing how I had entertained myself when housed up. I replied, telling him the books I had read, and among them “Ben Hur.” “Tell me about ‘Ben Hur,’” said he; “does it amount to anything—is it worth reading?” I assured him it was. “Tell me why,” he persisted; “what makes it worth reading?” I answered, if it’s pure invention, it’s good invention; and if it’s anything like a cor rect picture of the times, people and inci dents it deals with, and the result of study, it’s equally good from tliat standpoint, and I added the fellow who wrote “Ben Hur” ought not to be sent to South America—if you want to send him anywhere send him to Jerusalem or Egypt or Turkey, where be can have a chance to see and study Orien talism, or the traditions of it where it has been. *. He said to one of the little boys: “Irvin, you go to the hotel with Mr. Nichol and he will give you a book; bring it to me. ” Two days after I saw him again; he said he had read “Ben Hur” “at two pulls” after going to bed, the two previous nights. Lew Wallace had been nominated to go to Uruguay. He immediately recalled the nomination, and returned the name for Min ister to Constantinople, and at the same time wrote Lew Wallace a very complimentary letter on “Ben Hur,” which has since been effectively used by the publishers as an ad vertisement. lam told that it is now the most popular selling book on Harpei-s' list, and by several librarians that is the often est-inquired-for book in their libraries. The little accidental incidents will con tinue for many years to keep up an interest in the book, and would do so none the less, without being thus definitely told, but the striking thing is the illustration of the acute literary taste of the man who, har assed with cares as Garfield then was, would snatch the time from sleep to read a I took the size of “Ben Hur” in two nights. If the hook proves that Gen. W allace ought never to have been a General, this incident proves that President Garfield ought never to have been a President. JACK MORRISSEY, HORSEMAN. Remarkable Career of the Man Who Owns Montana Regent. From the Omaha Republican. A year ago very few people residing out side the lines of Colorado had heard of John D. Morrissey, whose offer to back his horse Montana Regent against “Lucky” Bald win’s Volante for £IO,OOO in a two-and-a half-mile race was publishsd yesterday. Five years ago Morrissey was working at £4 a day in one of the Leadville mines. To day his check for $£3,000,000 will be honored by any bank in the country, and he owns some of the richest mining property in the Centennial State. His career has been as remarkable as that of the lucky San Fran ciscan whose money he is yearning to win. Morrissey is an Irishman, about 35 years of age. When he arrived in Leadville eight or nine years ago he could neither read nor write. His illiteracy did not trouble him much until he began to climb the lad der to wealth and was forced by circum stanejer to mingle with the brains, culture and capital of the great Carbonic Camp. Then ne employed a private tutor and studied hard until he was able to sign his name and l ead the signatures of others. Morrissey’s ascension to affluence was very rapid. Ho learned practical mining at Georgetown, Col., and was working as a practical miner in the Crown Point property at Leadville when it was closed down and offered for sale by disgusted stockholders. One of these was Joseph Reynolds, of Chicago, known to fame as “Diamond Joe” and “The Steamboat King.” Morrissey whispered something to lym, and Reynolds said: “Go ahead, and you will receive one third of all the ore you turn out.” Morrissey went ahead, and after working hard six mouths uncovered the richest body of wire-silver-bearing ore ever discovered in the State. From that moment fortune smiled on him. As fast as ho made money he invested it. The Crown Point is still pouring out wealth for him, and he receives a share of the output of the liest mines at Aspen, Red Cliff, Snowbelly Gulch and other J Hunts within 100 miles of Leadville. He has always been a lover and promoter of square sports. When a working miner he was prominent in the wrestling and box ing matches held daily at Leadville, and as his fortunes increased he rode his hobby higher. About three years ago he began to specie Inteoii the turf and made money “handover list.” Last fall he purchased the horse Montana Regent for a song. Horsemen who know Mr. Morrissey predict a decrease in Mr. Baldwin's capital if he enter* Volante against the Regent. They say the miner millionaire-turfite never runs to lose. WERE THEY AVENGERS? A Strange Recluse In Arkansas Strangely Slain. A dispatch from Little Rock, Ark., to the New York Herald says: A man named John Simpson, who lived alone In a log cabin at Bayou Bartholomew, in Ashley county, was found murdered yesterday. The man’s life was a mystery and his violent taking off is a sensation in the difficulty of finding an explanation for it. Simpson took up the location where he lived some ten years ago. He cleared a tract of land anil built u log house. Ho was a tall, stalwart fellow, with dark hair and eyes, straight as an Indian. He lived alone, seldom ventured abroad and avoided the neighbors. He was always armed with a double-barreled shotgun. Beyond stating that he was of gypsy origin liejsaid nothing respecting his past fife. This fact caused him to be regarded with suspicion by par ties living in the immediate neighborhood, but so secluded was his life that his pres ence was scarcely known beyond a radius of five miles of his cabin. "That he had plenty of money was also a. fact well known to those who had business relations with him. ’ Two men visited Simpson’s house several days ago, remaining over night. Then they quietly went away. Parties who wore hunting stray cuttle passed tlie cabin yesterday and found no signs of life. The door was broken open and Bimpsori was found lying on the lied dead, with his throat cut. The clay floor was covered with blood and the overturned furniture and disordered room showed there had been a (tespemto struggle between the dead man and liis assailants. On .Simpson’s person was found a watch and money, showing that robbery did not prompt the murder. It has transpired to-duy that Simpson was a member of the band of gypsys wno have headquarters in the vicinity of Jack son Miss,, and Dayton, 0.. and it is said tliat he was implicated in a big robbery in the latter State, fled here with Ids booty and was followed and slain by members of the tribe w ho considered both liiuurii and the jjßttraoe, .
