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 freqmntly characterize 1 « -wi-ton Journal. f 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.

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.

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 Express.
