• How Hnnnibnl Hamlin Won the Title
’ In the Maine Legislature.
, Among the many stories of Hamlin's
early experiences in the Maine legis-
, latum none is more animated than his
’ tilt with John Holmes, interesting, lie
sides, because it gives the origin of
■ “the Carthaginian of Maine,” a name
that stuck to Hamlin through life.
Holmes had been in the United States
senate, and at this particular time,
writes General Hamlin, a member of
the state house of representatives, was
endeavoring to domineer over it.
Hamlin disputed the leadership with
him, and Holmes attempted to crush
his young opponent by coarsely ridicul
ing his swarthy complexion. Instantly
Hamlin jumped to his feet and, point
ing his finger at Holmes, retorted: “If
the gentleman chooses to find fault
with me for my complexion, what has
he to say about himself? I take my
complexion from nature. He gets his
from the brandy bottle. Which is more
honorable?” This retort was greeted
with great applause and cries cf “Go
on I ”
Hamlin then continued, pointing his
finger at Holmes: “I will also tell the
member from Alfred that he is more
conspicuous for trying to run dryshod
over young men than for trying to en
courage them. But as long as they are
true to themselves and to nature and as
long as the member from Alfred sticks
to the brandy bottle they need not fear
him.” As soon as the cheers of the
house could be sufficiently silenced
Holmes retracted his words and made a
manly apology. “The young Cartha
ginian routed the old Roman” was one
humorous comment on the incident,
and from that time Hamlin was thus

THE CLIMATE OF CHICAGO.
How I'onld the Poor Frenchman Tell
What It Could Do f
While in Chicago M. de Monvel, the
French artist, heard one story that puz
zled him. It was told at a dinner party,
and be smiled just as if he understood
it. That night he thought it over, but
the more he thought the less he com
prehended it. Finally a fellow artist
who had heard the story repeated it,
drew pictures of it, and then a light
broke on M. de Monvel, and he laughed.
“Ab, we Frenchmen are stupid when
compared with the Americans!” he ex
claimed. “I shall tell that story, and it
will make Paris laugh. ”
The little tale was about n French
carpenter who bought a saw from a
Chicago manufacturer who made a
specialty of advertising. Engraved on
the tool was the assurance that “day in
and day out this saw will wear longer
than any other on the market.” The
Frenchman read the advertisement,
and the day he bought the saw he put
it carefully away. The next day he
used it and left it out of doers in the
pouring rain. A neighbor remonstrated
with him for his carelessness, and he
picked up the saw, pointed to its in
scription and exclaimed:
“Does not le scie—no, I mean ze saw
—say un jour in et un jour out—one
day in and one day out -and zis will
wear longer than all ze saws? I have
left him in one day. Now I follow di
rec-she-ong—l leave him out one day.
Ze climate of She-ka-go—how can I tell
what she will do?”—Chicago Inter
Ocean.
He Got It.
He had the air of a man who was
particularly well satisfied witli himself.
“I tell you,” he said, “there's noth
ing like having sickness in the family
to convince a man that he can do a good
niany things that he never would have
dared 1 > attempt before. Now today I
am going to buy a gown for my little
girl. Her mother can’t get out, you
know, and so I am going to do it my
self.”
On the day following he had the air
of a man who was particularly dissat
isfied with himself.
“What’s the matter?” he was asked.
“Couldn't you get that gown?”
“Couldn’t I get it!” he repeated.
“Couldn’t I get it! Hang it all! The
trouble is that I did get it!”
“Something wrong with it?”
“Something! If it was only ‘some
thing,’ I wouldn't mind. My taste is
wrong, my judgment is wrong, the
color is wrong, the size is wrong and
the price is wrong.”—Chicago Post.
Unfortnnnte Simile.
There are times when a lawyer re
grets the use of an illustration which a
moment before has appeared especially
felicitous.
“The argument of my learned and
brilliant brother,” said the counsel for
the plaintiff in a suit for damages from
a street car corporation, “is like the
snow now falling outside—it is scat
tered here, there and everywhere.”
“All I can say,” remarked the op
posing counsel when his opportunity
came, “is that I think the gentleman
who likened my argument to the snow
now falling outside may have neglected
to observe one little point to which I
flatter myself the similarity extends—it
has covered all the ground in a very
short time.” —Youth’s Companion.
Extremes.
Cham, the French caricaturist, was
talking one day with a Gascon, who
, bragged that his father’s ancient baro
nial dining hall was the wonder of the
world. It was so high you could hardly
see the roof.
"My father had a dining room,” said
Cham, “which was just as remarkable
the other way. It was so low that the
only fish we could serve at table was
sole!”

“I noticed a couple of reminiscences
as to my old branch of service,” said
an ex-naval official to the writer,
“which reminded me of an incident in
my own career. 1 was an assistant en
gineer on a cruiser bound from Norfolk
to South American ports, and our ship
was telling off 14 or 15 knots an hour
one day, when a crank pin came out,
and the next instant the crank was
thrashing around in a most recklessly
unsystematic fashion. Everybody in the
engine room—and there were some men
of considerable rank there just then, as
it happened—made a dash for the deck.
Meanwhile I quietly took four or five
steps and shut off the steam. Os course
the engines stopped, and then followed
the delay caused by making the neces
sary repairs.
“It didn’t occur to me that I had per
formed any act of an especial character
until the chief engineer informed me
that I was a confounded fool. ‘Don’t
yon know your place under such cir
cumstances, sir?’ he asked, and when I
answered that I thought I had taken
my proper position he continued: “No,
sir; your duty was to make your way
as soon as possible to the deck. With
that piece of steel whirling and crash
ing about it was one chance in a thou
sand that a single soul would escape an
instantaneous cooking, because if that
thing had carried away the steam con
nections your life would have ended
right then. ’
“‘Well, I took the chance,’ I an
swered.
“‘Yes, sir. you did, but you didn’t
know it, therefore it is not at all to
your credit,’ was the chief’s answer,
and it was so absolutely true that I
couldn't for the life of me make any re
ply.”—Detroit Free Press.
THE POWER OF WILL.
Fie Wanted to Live Four Days, and
lie Succeeded.
It would be vain to attempt to de
scribe the sympathy for the poor and
suffering which William Stokes could
throw into his voice, says his biogra
pher. One of the stories he used to tell
is of peculiar interest, not only for its
revelation of human kindness, but as a
proof of the power of the will in pro
longing life.
An old pensioner was a patient of
Stokes in the Meath hospital. His life
was despaired of, and, in fact, his death
was hourly expected. One morning,
having many patients to care for and
believing that the pensioner was uncon
scious and past help, Dr. Stokes passed
his bed without stopping. The patient
was greatly distressed and cried out:
“Don’t pass me by. docther; you
must keep me alive for four days.”
“We will keep you as long as we
can. my poor fellow,” answered Stokes,
“but why for four days particularly?”
“Because,” was the reply, “my pen
sion will be due then, and I want the
money for my wife and children. Don’t
give me anything to make me sleep, for
if I sleep I shall die. ”
On the third day after this, to the
amazement of Stokes and others, the
patient was still breathing. On the
morning of the fourth day he was alive
and conscious, and on entering the
ward Stokes saw him bolding in his
hand the certificate which required sig
nature. As the doctor drew near the
dying man gasped:
“Sign, sign
The doctor quickly complied, and the
man sank back exhausted and within a i
few minutes crossed his hands over his
breast and said, "The Lord have mercy j
on my soul,” and quietly breathed his
last.

SHIPS SAVED AT SEA.
WHAT IS MEANT BY “SALVAGE” AND
HOW IT IS PAID,
There lx Ao Lot Tlial SlKmiln of IH»-
trefc» at Sen Most Be Heeded—Pub
lic Opinion Alone Itnforrra He- '
uponscH to < ill In lor Help.
Salvage on ships saved at sea by oth
ers in the majority of eases is paid by the
underwriters, although the big steam
ship companies insure themselves. The
insurance companies think that a board
of arbitration can more satisfactorily
adjust salvage claims than can the
courts. The word salvage, as defined by
that celebrated admiralty authority,
Roscoe, is “the reward which is earned
by those who have voluntarily saved or
assisted in savit ;a s! ip or boat or their
apparel or any i >rt thereof or the lives
of persons at sea or a ship, cargo or any
part thereof, from peril or a wreck
from total loss.” The last part of the
definition is a tri'’ puz, lit
In discussing the merits of salvage
cases it must , tv . , red that there
is no obligation, written or implied,
upon the master or crew of any vessel
to heed signals of distress. Public opin
ion alone enforces the idea that “a call
for help at sea must be obeyed.” The
laws of salvage are merely framed to
encourage the saving of life and proper
ty on the deep. There is avarice in the
mariner as in landsmen, and the laws
are made to overcome arid curb these
mercenary ambitions. For that reason
a master and his crew cannot expect
salvage for saving their own vessel. It
is the natural assumption in law, as
well as in fact, that they must do
everything they can to preserve their
charge and under an agreement with
the owners keep it from danger when
ever possible.
In salvage one of the first laws is that
the peril must be actual. The bargain
made in time of danger by the master
or agent of the imperiled craft withan
other volunteering aid need not of neces
lity hold in court, and generally does
not. Asa rule the bargain is exorbitant
and made at a time when the victim
would be willing to guarantee the pay
ment of millions for proffered assist
ance. This point has been decided hun
dreds of times, the courts taking the ,
stand that the peril made an exor- i
bitant bargain necessary. ,
As a general thing, the salvage award
is equal to about one-third the value in
tho case of sailing craft and from
one-third to one-half in the case of (
steamers. The owners of the salving
craft, whose money was wasted by de
lay, wear and tear, are of course en
titled to the bigger piece of the plum.
The master of the salvor gets about
twice the sum that his mate receives,
and the mate is paid something like
double the amount of each sailor.
Should the latter have been a mem
ber of a lifeboat crew used in running
hawsers or in going aboard as a prize
crew he and his mates are entitled to
an extra compensation. Naval officers
cannot claim salvage when the work
accomplished is in the direct lino of
their duty.
In the caso of a abandoned vessel
there is a peculiar law as applied to
ownership. No matter where the dere
lict be found and towed or assisted in
by a prize crew or otherwise the court
holds that she is still tho property of
her original owners, although abandon
i ed by her crew, their agents, and that
I no effort has been made by them, to re
| cover her. It sounds peculiar to the
i average mariner, but it's the law.
To make a successful salvage claim it
i is necessary that the property must be
actually saved and saved by those claim
ing to be salvors. In other words, the
salvage services must be rendered by
persons not bound by contract to render
■ them. If tho mariner or other encoun
< ters tho danger or misfortune or dam-
I age which might possibly expose the
ship to destruction unless assistance is
rendered and does all he can to save the
vessel, and his services tend in some de
j gree to save or preserve her, compensa
| tion will be awarded him, although the
; vessel is mainly preserved by other
' means.
The longest time that any one steam-
I er has been at sea with disabled ma
i chinery before reaching port was 77
i days. This was the United States cor-
I vette Iroquois in 1890. She was bound
to Samoa from Honolulu, and bad only
j seven days' rations left when port was
i reached. In 1897 the steamer Indralema
j was towed into St. Thomas after hav
j ing been at sea for 47 days. The Glas
i gow steamer Strathness, after drifting
i 82 days out of the range of steamers,
I was towed into St. Michael’s in Janu-
I ary, 1897, by the British steamer Han
| nah M. Bell. Another Strath, the
I Strathnevis, drifted helplessly on the
i Pacific for two months and over in
! 1895, and was finally towed into Puget
I sound. The Disptach in 1864 was out
I 61 days with crippled machinery, and
i four years ago the British cruiser Ca
j lypso broke down 2,000 miles from port
! and sailed in unaided, much to thede-
I light of the dwindling band of naval
experts who maintain that every war
ship ought to be provided with ample
sail power.
The owners of those ships that were
| obliged to drift for weeks, and in sev
' eral cases for months, would not. have
found fault with the question of salvage
had a helping hand come along—at
least there would have been no com
plaint just then. —New York Mail and

B. B. B. cures because it literal]}' drives
the poison ot Humor (which produces
blood diseases) out of the blood, bones and
body, leaving the flesh as pure as a new
born babe's, and leaves no bad after effects.
No one can afford to think lightly of
Blood Diseases. The blood is the life
thin, bad blood won’t cure itself. You
must get the blood out of your lames and
body and streng hen the system by new,
fresh blood, and in this way the sores and
ulcers cancers, rheumatism, eczema, ca
tarrh, etc., are cured. B. B. B. does all
this for you thoroughly and finally. B B.
B. is a powerful Blood Remedy (and not a
mere tonic that stimulates but don’t cure)
and for this reason cures when al) else
fails.
No one can tell how bad blood in the
system will show itself. In one person it
will break out in form of scrofula, in
another person, repulsive sores on the face
or ulcers on the leg, started by a slight
blow. Many persons show bad blood by
a breaking out of pimples, sores on tongue
or lips. Many persons’ blood is so bad
that it breakes out in terrible cancer on
the face, nose stomach or womb. Cancer
is the worst form of bad blood, and hence
cannot be cured by cutting, because
can't cut out the bad blood; but cancer
and all or any form of bad blood is easily
and quickly removed by B. B B. Rheu
matism ana catarrh aie both caused by
bad blood, although many doctors treat
them as local diseases. But that i.: the
reason catarrh and rheumatism are never
cured, while B. B. B. has made many
lasting cures of catarrh and rheumatism.
