and let me know your decision tomor
row morning."
The next morning Judge Parker in
formed Governor Hill that he was
still of the opinion he had held the
day before.
"Very well; I will not urge you fur
ther," Mr. Hill said. “There Is now
hut one thing to do. and that Is to
nominate Bird S. Coler."
And several weeks later, on election
night. Governor Hill was more than
ever of the belief that had Judge
Parker been his party's candidate for
governor, he would have been elected,
for Coler was defeated by Odell by
only eight thousand plurality.
Two years later, when Judge Parker
was nominated for the presidency by
the Democracy, he was reminded of
the chat, here made public for the
first time, which he had with Governor
Hill, and his reply was that the nom
ination for president had come to him
without his having raised his hand
to secure it. and that he was of the
opinion of one of the statesmen of
an earlier day. that the presidency
should neither be sought nor declined.

pocket of his waistcoat he dived, and
at last, in a voice which betrayed his
concern and a certain modesty, even
timidity, of manner, he explained to
the ticket agent:
"I find that I have come frcm home
without a cent of money; J must have
left my pockettook upon the table or
my desk. I walked from the house
to the station because the evening
was plea'ant. or I should have dis
covered before that I had no money
with me."
The ticket agent made no response,
and the chief justice, in a manner
even more hesitating, and with his
embarrassment visibly Increased,
asked:
“It Is very Important that I go to
New 1 ork tonight; is there any way
in which I can secure my passage?"
Before the ticket agent had time to
reply a man who stood beyond the
ticket window rail stepped forward,
and as I pulled out my poeketbook and
held It before Chief Justice Waite the
stranger did the same, both he and I
faying almost simultaneously: "Judge
Waite. I should be glad if you would
accept what you need from my own
purse."
Never did a man appear more great
ly embarrassed over, or more keenly
appreciative of, the kindness then
shown him. But before the chief jus
tice could accept either offer, the tick
et agent thrust his head through the
window and waved the stranger and
myself aside.
“Ocntlemen.” he said, “this Is my
privilege." Then turning to Chief Jus
tice Waite—of whose identity he had
been in ignorance a moment before—
the agent smilingly continued: “The
rules of the railroad company do not
permit me to sell a ticket upon credit.
Judge Waite, or I should be very glad
to do that. But there is no rule of the
company which prevents me buying a
ticket.”
He look out his poeketbook, with
drew from it $5 and placed the bill in
the money drawer. Then he handed a
ticket to the chief justice, and before
the latter could say anything a $5
bill followed the bit of pasteboard into
his hands. “You will want a sleeping
car ticket, and you shouldn’t go to
New York without a cent in yottr
pocket," explained the agent. "So
please let me offer you this money."
The chief Justice of the fnited
States looked gratefully at the rail
road man. “I thank you most sincere
ly for your very great courtesy." he
said. “And as you know who I am.
you may be assured that upon my re
turn to Washington you will be re
paid.”
Thereupon. Justice Waite passed on
and I ventured to remark to the ticket
agent: “That was a very handsome
thing you did.”
“Oh. no.” was the reply; “I was
proud to be able to be of some service
to Chief Justice Waite. I would
cheerfully have assisted him, or any
other member of the Supreme court,
even though 1 knew I would never get
my money back. I consider it a great
honor for any man to be able to do
anything for a member of the Su
preme court. And I have been more
than repaid for what I have done by
the manner In which Justice Waite
received the little courtesy.”
Then it was that J realized as I
never had before the lespect and ven
eration that the average American
holds for the Supreme court or the
republic.

PRESSED WOOD IS NEW FUEL
Rapidly Becoming Popular In South
ern California and Commands
Good Prices.
Los Angeles.—In California, "press
ed wood" is a new fuel that is rapidly
becoming popular. Fuel for domestic
purposes has always commanded ex
orbitant prices in southern California, j
bituminous coal selling at retail at
from $12 to $14 per tbs. and wood cut
to stove lengths at about the same
figure per cord. In the high price of
fuel, some inventive genius perceived
the opportunity to win wealth from
waste by utilizing a part of the enor
mous quantity of shavings and saw

dust that is annually wasted, or at
best used to poor advantage, in saw
mills. planing mills and similar estab
lishments So he patented a machine
for pressing shavings and sawdust in
to moids. A string through the cen
ter of the mold helps hold the mate
rial together, and the heavy pressure
to which it is subjected accomplishes
the rest. From the molds the "pressed
wood" (as the product is called)
comes out looking like a giant cannon
cracker 12 inches long and three
inches in diameter. Owing to its
compressed state, the wood burns
slowly, but with intense heat, making
it much more desirable for use in
stoves than ordinary wood. It is
claimed that its fuel value per ton is
fully equal to that of the best grade
of bituminous coal, while its cleanli
ness makes it preferable to coal By
the ton it retails at the same price as
coal, and the favor with which it has
been received by the public seems to
presage a great future for "pressed
wood” as fuel. •
