"When I graduated from the law school," said the old lawyer, wKJi a reminiscent smile, "I took Horace &?p ley's advice and went west. I located In a little town that then was on the frontier and waited with the confi dence of youth for clients. "Before I had fairly opened my office I was retained to defend a man for stealing a horse. This elated me very much, for I was not aware at the time that the case had been refused by all the other lawyers In town, as defend ing a horse thief was not a thing to be desired If a man valued his life. "The case came to trial before an old Judge and a Jury composed of bewhisk ered ranchers. There was no doubt that the man was guilty, but he had a number of friends who were willing to swear to anything, and I thought it was my duty to make the best possible use of them. They were all willing to gwear that the defendant was 40 miles away from t:e spot when the horse was stolen, and the prosecution was unable to break down their testimony. I saw that I was going to free my client, so it was with a satisfied air that I saw the Jury leaving the room to prepare their verdict. "They were back in five minutes, and the old Judge asked them if they had succeeded In arriving at a verdict. " We hev,' answered the foreman, as he shifted the gun he carried on his hip. We find the defendant not guilty an recommend the defendant's lawyer, o win to his youth an Innocence, to the cercy of the court. "While I was gasping for breath the Judfre fined me $500 and suspended sentence long enough for me to get out of town. It wasn't law, but I didn't stop taargue the matter." Chicago In ter Ocean. A GREAT WRESTLER. nia Eseosster With the Csar and Ills Ignoble Ileward. One of the stories of Teter the Great which are current at the court of SL Petersburg Is of the great czar's wres tling match with a young dragoon. On co In the Imperial palace so the story goes reter was at table with a great many princes and noblemen, and soldiers were posted within the ball. The czar was in a Joyous mood, and, rising, called out to the company: "Listen, princes and boyars! Is there among you one who will wrestle with the czar?" There was no reply, and the czar repeated the challenge. No prince or nobleman dared to wrestle with his sovereign. But all at once a young "dragoon stepped out from the ranks of the soldiers on guard. "Listen, Orthodox czar," he said. . "I will wrestle with thee!" "Well, young dragoon," said Peter, "I will wrestle with thee, but on these conditions: If thou throwest me, I will pardon thee; but. If thou art thrown, thou shalt be beheaded. Wilt thou wrestle on those conditions?" "I will, great czar," said the soldier. They closed, and presently the soldier with his left arm threw the czar and with his right he prevented him from falling to the ground. The sovereign was clearly beaten. The czar offered the soldier whatever reward he should claim, and he Ignobly claimed the privilege of drinking free, as long as he lived, in all the Inns belonging to the crown. What became of him his tory does not say. Odd Xames of Maryland Farms.

Chicago Record. " 'Jl Cass ot Confused Telepathr A very remarkable occurrence has been brought to my jpotiee. Early last week a well known lady, who shall be called Jones, dreamed a ridiculous dream, as Inconsequential as most dreams are. Mrs. Jones dreamed that a dog of hers had died and that she received an official communication ordering her either to cremate the remains or to her self skin the animal and throw the body Into the river. Mrs. Jones chose the latter alternative, but having half skinned the body and becoming tired threw It as It was Into the water. The dog disappeared fcr an Instant and then reappeared on the surface alive, and swimming across to the opposite bank trotted off, evidently in great suf fering. There ends the dream. The next morning the postman brought several letters. The first one was addressed to Lewis Jones, Esq., there being no such person and ran as follows: "Sir, your deg crossed the river last night on to my property, but being very severely injured it was found necessary to kill It. Should you wish to have the collar, which bears your name and address. I shall be hap py to send It to you." No dog belonging to Mrs. Jones had died nor had she lost one. London Truth- 'Famous Old Gamblers. In the latest history of gambling in England, just published, there are some astonishing revelations as to the amount of money won and lost by men and women whose names are as fa miliar as household, words early In the present century. There are records of 200,000 having been lost at a sitting, and the loss of 50.000 appears to have been a very common occurrence. A gambling story Is told of Charles James Fox that rather reflects on his honor. He was one of the ardent ad mirers of Mrs. Crewe, a noted beauty of her day, and It Is related that a gen tleman lost a considerable sum to this lady at play, and, being obliged to leave town suddenly, gave Mr. Fox the money to pay her, begging him to apologize to her for his not having paid the debt of honor In person. Fox lost every shilling of It before morn ing. Mrs. Crewe often met the sup posed debtor afterward, and, surprised that he never noticed the circum stances, at length delicately hinted the matter to him. "Bless me!" said he. "I paid the mon ey to Mr. Fox three months ago." "Oh, did you, sir?" said Mrs. Crewe good naturedly. "Then, probably, he paid me, and I forgot it." Boston Her ald. looal Prejoaiee.
