Fred Koroall, well known to many in IlaDcock, tried Saturday to get a drink without money and w ithout price at the saloon of Matt Jestila, The latter, hav. iug so good a reaeon, refused to serve the drink. Kornall retired for a minute, but returned with an ax determined to urge his request for a drink, Jestila drew a gun and there was a pretty row for a few minutes. The saloonkeeper afterward swore out a warrant against Kornall, charging him with assault with intent to do great bodily barm less than the crime of murder. Kornall kept out of sight yesterday, but the warrant was served today. When A. Fenor so unccremonously took his leave from the copper country be left debts.

II? A Bright Future For the Secre tary of State. KOT MUCH TO WORRY A ROUT. He IUi m Furtunn And a Poaltlom, but Cr lUle Makes a New Mart In rrofewtlonal Ufe Kx-oernor John I. Loug and I'atrlck Culllns. Washikotov, Jan. 18. Special. There In a great deal of talk among public men here concerning the future of thu Democratlo party. The men who are In position to have the best Information and judgment agree that the party is likely to conio to some understanding boforo the next congressional elections are on, which will obviate the gold and silver war with in thu ranks. Just how this Is to bo dona thoy do not appear to know. Hut that the loaders of the party are confident harmony will be brought aUiut In some way is ap parent from their conversation. This opin ion is expressed by Democrats who sup ported Fiilnur and lluckner as well as those who favored Dryan and bewail. So it Is I'nsy to bee tluit there is at least a de sire for pence between the active men of the two factions. Whether or not peaco can be (ictuallv brought about is another question. There- Is nlso considerable gossip In Democratic tlrehs to the otTet t that Secre tary Olr.ey n;ny bo the Democratic nom inee for president in I'JOu. This Is look ing a loii W!iy uhc: (1, but the fosfiiji Is of interest in that it shows the hold Olney has obtained upon the respect of the public men of tho day. It cannot be Kiid with truth that Mr. Olney is exactly popular. De has not popular ways, ilo is a plain, blunt, cold blooded man, who goes straight at his business, apparently caring little for the consequences as to his popularity among the people. Dut there is great ad miration for thu doughty secretary of utato who has brought Lord Salisbury to terms, even among those, senators and represent atives who are not lovers of tho adminis tration, and who are not satisfied with tho manner in which Mr. Olney arrogated to the executive tlio exclusive right to recog nize tho independence of n foreign power. Oluey's Future. Those who think Olney likely to boacen trul figure in the Democratic politics of the future point to his great achievements in securing from Great Britain recognition of tho Alouroo doctrine, the general treaty of arbitration and his influence in settling the Chicago ttriko in 181. Thoy say the secretary has in this way won tho admira tion of the masses, who aro always In favor of a vigorous foreign policy, and that he has at tho sains tlmo gained the confidence of the substantial mun of thu country, for they know him to be firm without being a jingo. Mr. Olney hlmsolf cannot ho suld to bo ambitious. While ho would doubt less be glad to accept the Damocratlo nomi nation for president In 1900, especially If it should be accompanied by a fair chance of election, he is too well balanced to permit an ambition of this sort to obtain posses sion of him. He realizes that as a corpora tion lawyer he is not likely ever to become a very popular man and la quite well con tent to go back to his law practice, which, I understand, nets him about 160,000 a year. Mr. Olney'icasolsa good example of the wisdom of making one'a way in the world, of achlovlng Independence, boforo going In to politics or public life. Mr. Olney's future la assured. Ilo has nothing to worry about. If bis Income lias been f oO.OOO or $00,000 a year In the post, it may easily doublo that for years to come, for he has guinea tremendous personal and professional pres tige ly Lis bucccfia in tho state department, If bo cares a little later cn to bocoino a candidate for otlleo or to engage in party politics as a lender, ho will be free and In dependent. Outlook For frcr-tary Carlisle. There are members of tho cabinet who bavo not this comforting assurance on tho eve of their retirement. Secretary tarliHle, for Instance, bus his way to make in pro fessional life. Ho has had rto practice for many years and is without capital to start on. Of courao he win not lacs ior cnuuvo, nnd some very cood offers are already awaiting hliu, but It is not like having made one's success and won one's financial imiPtiPr.dciica earlv in life. Postmaster notif.rnl Wilson, too. has clven the best of bis life to public aorvlco, and he will In all nrnbn hllltv ro back to colleaework, whloh rr,i ,ia nttnntlon in enrllor years. It la eald he has already accepted an invlta tinn to become president of a Virginia ool lege. Ilo is a scholarly man, much admired nnd holovad bv hla associates for his gentle rhAractcr and winning way.. In college 11 l.a will be at bis best. Secretary Her K.rf. a Another retlrlna cabinet minister whr will have to find aoroe meana of gain lng a livelihood. He 1. poor, too, but a man of great ability and one so highly re spected that be will no nave any uiuicunj (n mnlrtnir hla why in rjritato life. It haa become an axiom among public man. A m fill S those who have had experi ence, that It is wisest to get money bofore seeking honor.. If one doesn't bolieve In nt hta' h haa only to come to v-Mnoton and try it Men are handl .-.. if thnv trv to rise in nubllo life without a reasonable amount of money be bind them. They cannot accept cabinet appointments without sacrincea sucn as-a poor man ought noi w winu. Two aiaacliuetts Slen. I know a number of men who drew out of publlo life in Washington deliberately tho nnmont, of acquiring financial In dependence before ro-entering it. One of these I. ex-Governor Long of Massacnu aetta, recently much talked of for a place in the McKinley cabinet. He was some yours ago a strong man in the bouse and In hi. atate, Dut he was poor, and, per cclvlng the disadvantage which bo was la boring under, he left congress and devoted himself to building up his private fortune, with tho intention of aomo day coming back to Washington as a publlo man. Whether ho haa reached the-rolnt whore he Is willing to bocome a member of the cabi net remains to bo seen. Another instance cf the same sort is found in the case of ex-Congressman 1 at rlck Collins, also of Massachusetts and now the American consul general at Lon don. Mr. Collins was In high favor with his party and with Mr. Cleveland. Ha could have been In the cabinet had he wished, but he preferred to go to London, WbenT the consular fees for some years TinCntod to 140,000 or 141.000 a y Mr. Collins has publle life afr he had ""J .

Tho workinanjhip of the rnso and the material of which it is composed long exercised tho ingenuity of some of the greatest antiquarians in Europe Dreval believed it to be chalcedony; Bartoli, Montfaacou and others, sar donyx; Count Fezi, amethyst; De la Chausse and Misaon, agate, while Venuti decided that it was paste. Wedgwood's examination of the vasa proved tke last opinion to be the correct one. A layer of white glass had been fused on a dork blue body, the exquisito figures being afterward produced in this layer by cutting down to the blue by the gpui engraver, after the manner of real cameos. Wedgwood also discovered that the vano bad at some time been broken and repaired. It was bis opinion that tho head which foimexl the bottom of the va.se was a pieco of some other work that bad been cut down and in serted in tho plaoo of tho original bot tom, which bad probably been destroyed at the time the vaso itself was broken. Dy tho autumn of 1789 Wedgwood, after many failuren, had succeeded in his arduous undertaking, and the first perfect copy, made in the famous jasper ware, was finished. Several more copies were subxetiurutly made, though tho exact number does not hcem ut all cer tain. Theso wero of various degrees of perfection and varied in tdzo and color. Originally wild at from aotoGO guineas caeii, uecordiug'to excellence of finish, time has, of course, considerably r u- hanced their value, und nouio years ago, at tho Kilo of the Murtiueau collection, ono sold for l-'D-t. In 1810 tho Duke of Fortland placed tho vaso in tho British museum, where some 85 years afterward it was wantonly broken to atoms by a drunken visitor. After being skillfully repaired it was placed for additional safety with tho gems. Authorities nro by no means agreed as to tho subject of tho bas-relief, though various explanations liavo been offered. According to tho museum catalogue, tho composition represents on tho ob verse Thetis consenting to bo tho bride of Fnlens in tho presence of Poseidon and Eros ; on tho reverse, Peleus and Thetis on Mount Pehou, and on tho bottom of tho vaso (now detached) a youthful bust of Paris. Good Words. Falllna; a Dana;roaa Chlmnay. Tbcro is only ono way of saving a chimney out of plumb from collapso if tho bend increases that is, to cut a slico out of tho masonry on the other side, so that it may sink ou that side and bring itself straight Hut that method, though efficacious at times, often weakens tho structure. Tho only other alternative is to pull down and build afresh, and there aro two ways of doing that. Ono is to pull tho chimney down, stouo by stone, beginning at tho top, a tedious method and a terribly risky ono if tho structure be tottoring to its fall. The other method tno writer has often soon practiced in Lancashire and Yorkshire. At a mill a few miles outside of Manchester, for instance, a dangerous chimney had to bo "foiled" not long ago, and the contractor started to cut away the brickwork at tho base on five out of its eight sides. Once, thinking it was about to eettlo on him, ho and his men hurried away, but tho fall did not tako place, and they re turned to work. The gaps were propped i up with timber and tho structnro sup ported in this way till tho proper time. Thou tho wood was hoaked with par affin and daubed with rosin and ignited. Tho flames and smoke poured up tho chimney with a great roar, and tho dar ing man lingered at tho foot for a quar ter of an hour, feeding tho flaino at ono point ko tho wood, inight collapso thero lirnt and the chimney tako that direc tion in its fall. At length tho balks gave way, tho chimney tottered, then leaned over in a circular fashion and finally collapsed in tho middle and fell in a heap. Tho climber told tho writer that ho distinctly preferred to bring a chimney down in that way, for once, while taking down a shaft in a north Lancashire district, ho heard it groan and creak and had only time to slip down the ropo and rush away when it fell. Chambers' Journal. Care of the Ear. During this 'sweaty weather" the dirt will accumulate in tho ears .of the little tots old enough to play out of doors, and it must bo remembered that ear wax is not dirt, and mothers ought to be very careful in cleaning children's cars not to gouge out the wax with sharp pointed instrument Tho wax is intend ed to protect the ear and should not bo disturbed, except that part which has Another aire adr worked it9 way out thing about ears is that they should not be pulled and boxed. Perhaps this may 6cem the most convenient and convinc ing mode of punishment when tho child is naughty and the mother is tired and cross, but it should novcr bo indulged in. Both pulling and boxing may in flame tho tissue that holds tho auricle in placo and induce hardness of hearing and even perfect deafness. Tho drum head or elastic membrane just within the car has often beeu seriously injured and sovero illness caused by severely boxing tho ears. Philadelphia Times. The lluttou Was On. "Aha!" And ho laughed fiendishly as he read from tho morning paper.

Vou ignore the fact that there were two Drakes, as there axe two Cecil KhodesoH. When Drake's consummate seamanship and audacious courage suc cessfully resisted tho armada and sent the Duke of Sidonia "back to St. Mary rort among bis orango trees," he bo came, and will justly remain for all time, an English hero. But eight years previously Drake stole the church plato of Lima, when Spain was at peace with England. Ills robbery disgraced England and himself. In the remarkable volume of letters and state papers relating to Eng lish affairs edited by Major Sharp Iljme, from thfaarchives at Simancas, I have counted 39 instances in which tho restitution of Drake's plunder is referred to by Dr. Mendoza in languago whicn might be employed today by the agent general of the Transvaal. There was nothing admirable in tho episode of tho Lima plato; quite the reverse. Is it not, therefore, a good thing to distin guish between tho good and the bad in Drake as in Mr. Rhodes? If Drako had been broken in 1579 for his theft of tho Lima chalices and patens, ho would never havo had tho opiortunity of win ning half the three days' battles in tho channel in August, 1583. On tho other hand, to condone tho piratical expedi tions of the earlier part of Drake's ca reer because later on ho acted nobly and as a true Englishman is unneces sary. Should not tS sumo thing hold good about Mr. Ilhodes? Wo may admire and bo grateful for his stand against Ger many wliiio eondt muing ins pioi against n friendly, state and the Stock Exchange aroma of tho whole transac tion. London Chronicle. Cooper Not Yet Neglected. In commenting in Longman's ilaga zino 011 the re cent "Introduction to tho Study of American Literature" Mr. An drew Lang declares that Cooper "seems to bo a good deal neglected now. No body goes on tho trail with Natty Bam poOrio).' It may bo that Cooper is neglected in England, but ho has not beeu neglected by all recent British au thors, for Robert Louis SSteveuson read him and praised him and borrowed from him, and Mr. lludyard Kipling told an American friend not long ago that he had just been reading Cooper through and through with constantly increasing appreciation. And Cooper is not neglected by the publishers either in Franco or in America. In Paris not long ago a sumptuously illustrated translation of the most famous of Coop er's storios was issued uniform with a translation of tho most famous of Scott's novels. In tho United States "Tho Last of the Mohicans" has now been put on the list of books which a boy must read before he can get into college. Tho Putnains havo begun to publish a complete set of his novels, il lustrated, and to be known as the Mo hawk edition. T. Y. Crowell & Co. have in preparation a new edition of the five Leatherstocking Tales, to bo il lustrated with full page photogravures, by Mr. Frank T. Merrill and to bo in- trodnood bv a loner biocrranhical and critical essay by Professor Brander Mat thews. Bookman. A Cow Worth Mora Than a Man. In tho United States tho administra tion of tho law affecting the civil rights of tho citizen, his property rights grow ing out of controversies between man and man upon contracts, has come to bo regarded as of much more importance than tho enforcement of the law which protects the life of the citizen. All can notice that. The criminal law and its administration havo rather fallen into disgrace. That is especially true of tho large cities of the country. All must agree that it is more important to pro tect a man's life than it is his property. If the man's life is destroyed, if the as sassin fires into his houso and takes away bis life, is that not a greater dep rivation than to despoil him of his horse or his cow or even of all the other troDcrty wliich ho possesses? Now why is this tho case? It is largely becauso of the corrupt methods resorted to to do feat the law's administration and be cause courts of justice look to the shad ow in tho shape of technicalities rather than to the substanoo in tho shape of crime.
