Council liislriii'li'd < < i Collect Spool ill
Tux AKiiliiNt HlN OTVII Property.
Olty Attorney Connell has been directed
by the city council to proceed against W. J.
Connell , property owner , to collect about
$1,000 In specUl taxes , which nre assessed
against oneof his lots on account of the
Ijoavenworth street grading. The fact that
Mr. Connell was the owner of the lot was
not known to more than one or two members
of the council when the action was taken
and there is now considerable curiosity to see
how the city attorney will succeed ns a
collector.
The matter carne up In connection with a
communication which was received from the
Globe Loan and Trust company. May 7. The
company represented that warrants amount
ing to $ .100 on the grading district were- held
by some of Its cistern clients and that the
credit of the city would suffer If they were
allowed to run much longer. The matter was
referred to the finance committee , which re
ported a week ago. The commlttuc stated that
on Investigation it had been discovered that
all the special taxes In tlvls district had been
paid except on one lot on which the tax
amounted to $595.18 and the delinquent In
terest to $5S3.2S. If this was pilil there
would bo enough In the fund to meet all
outstanding obligations and leave a balance
on hand , The committee therefore recom
mended that the papers In the case be re
ferred to the city attorney with Instructions
to nt once take the necessary steps to col
lect the delinquent tux and In the event of
failure to do so within two weeks , to return
the papers to the finance committee for
further action. The report was adopted by
n unanimous vote and the city attorney was
Instructed accordingly.

Member ? of the police force count them
selves nbout $3,000 richer as n result of n
decision that was handed down by the state
supreme court Thursday. The decision
calls upon the county to pay that amount of
money to the officers as witness fees ac
cumulated from criminal cases In the dis
trict court during the past four years.
For the past four years , as a result of
the work of the legislature uf ! S92 , police
olllcera have not been drawing witness fees
In criminal eases In the district court.
Previous to that time they hud been doing
to. The legislature of 1S92 , however , passed
nn amendment to the city charter , provid
ing that police o Ulcers should not draw fees
from the police court , nor from any criminal
court In the state.
This amendment wns naturally displeasing
to the officers , because It cut oft a revenue
ranging from a few dollars to more than
MOO a year. The county commissioners re
fused to pay the fees upon demand nnd
consequently u case wns started In the dis
trict court , questioning the constitutionality
of the amendment. It was maintained that
the olliccrs had us much right as any other
citizens of the Btato to draw witness fees.
Thomas Hnycc. who was a detective nt the
lime , was made the plaintiff In the cnso , nl-
Ihough the expenses were paid by nil Inter-
fsted members of the police force. The dlu-
Irlct court decided In. favor of the olllcers
ind then the county commissioners appealed
| o the supreme court. Yesterday's decision
the result.

Another sleeping car story is being circu
lated , and the truth of It Is backed by n man
well known in Chicago for his veracity and
abhorrence of exaggeration. Ho tells the
story on himself , or rather his wife , and ,
whllo it savors of the usual sleeping car
tale. It has Ita good points , relatco the Chicago
cage Inter Ocean.
Together with ha ! wife the man was trav
eling recently from California. One night
he awoke In his berth In the agony of horri
ble pairs In the stomach. As they were
passing through a prohibition district , and
there was nothing more tempting on board
than apolllnarls water , his wife was assured
that his Intentions were honest when ho
shrieked loudly for brandy.
Hut there was none to be had ; so , with
the Instinct of a true woman during family
affliction , the wife rushed to her satchel
and drew therefrom .1 mustard plaster , an
Institution upon which she pinned 'her faith
in casea of the kind , and requested the porter
to get hot water without delay.
When the poultice was In readiness for
application she returned and carefully pulled
cslde the curtains of a berth , tenderly placing
the plaster.
An Instant later a howl rent the air and a
voice of agony , emanating from behind the
long whiskers of a stranger , gasped :
"Great heavens ; the train's wrecked ! The
boiler's lying on me. Oh , how it burns !
Help ! Help ! Fire ! Fire ! "
Nightcaps , -disordered frizzles , red and
olcepy eyes and ashen faces were thrust out
Into the alale in horror , wonder and sur
prise. The poor woman who wns the Inno
cent cause of the excitement hastily with
drew to her own quarters while the porter
removed the "holler" from the stranger and
assured everybody that all was well.

The education ota girl' , a18 Leslie's
Weekly , Involves n ptcarlox so purzllnR that
one docs not wonder t Us postponement to
the nineteenth century. If your girl were
surely to be married the .should be definitely
prepared during her /earlier years for the
spcclfli duties of wlfthood nnd motherhood.
These .Imply n rcndlnesa , to efface self nnd
to give up one's own w K nrd | will. No man
wants n strong-willed-wl/c , nnd ho will not
take one If ho knowsilt.
As less thnn three-quarters of our women
marry.In some of our eastern slates , however ,
your d'aughtcr may live single ; yet , It you are
not especially well-to-do , you cannot sup
port her In Idleness. You must therefore
educate her so thnt , nt the nge of 20 or
thereabout , she may bo ready to bend her
will for life to that of another , or so that
she may bo able to push her way In the
world , relying on herself , meeting compel !
tlon victoriously , nnd bearing bravely what' '
ever of disappointment nnd defent arc In
store for her. Your modern educated girl
must he equally prepnred for the primrose
path of wealth and leisure as the wife of
n millionaire , for the struggle and small
economies of a poor man's spouse , for a
"career" as a teacher , artist , or musician ,
or for the obscure nnd Ill-paid drudgery of
omnll wage-corning.
A girl of 10 recently announced to her
mother that she had nlways Intended to be
"a great geologist , " but that she had now
made up her mind to be married.
"Hut what If noljod } asks you ? "
"Then I shall ask somebody. "
"Hut If somebody won't have you ? "
"Then I shall ask somebody else and sonic-
body el e and somebody else , and after n
while I guess I shall find somebody. "
The persevering little girl happens to be
n beauty , with blonde ringlets nnd heaven
blue eyes. Otherwise all her lesolutlons
might bo useless.
Not no with her brothers.
The boy early knows whether he has his
own way to make In the world or not. Ho Is
brought up accordingly ; but whether he 1s
poor or rich , ono duty should be early en
joined upon him. He should be taught that
ns scon ns ho can adequately support a wife
he should get one. The proverb , "The
strength of a nation Is In the homes of Ito
people , " may sound sentimental , but It Is
nothing of the sort. It U Intensely practical.
In the multitude of refined and Christian
homes , and there only , lies the future of our
republic. The boy will bo twice as good ,
twlcd ns thrifty , twice as manly , If he Is
consistently brought up to look'forward to a
home nnd a wife and children of his own.
To the deep sen with all the "bachelor
apartmcntn , " nnd the lazy , selfish crew ot
tllkcn sybarites who inhabit them ! Give us
simple honuo , full of rosy cheeked boys and
girls , nurtured In love and honor and purity.
In such homes the hyper-refined sensuous
ness , the nasty suggestlvcness , the dangerout
laxity of modern life , wither and die. Let
our young men .see to It that such homes arc
provided.
Every man must decide for himself when
he Is ready to assume the responsibilities of
a home. Hy thrift nnd energy a bright young
fellow of 25 or 20 ought to be well started In
life , with a little ahead. Marriages , we are
told , are likely to be the happiest If made In
the early 20's. Hut whether sooner or later ,
let us have them.

In New York City , a. few days ago.
Mr. Illchardson was 84 years old. For
sixty-four of those years he has tolled ln-
defatlgably to accumulate wealth. He entered
the business of building houses when he came
to New York from Ntsw England a young
man. and with such success that his fortune
is rated "at $20W)0.000. ) About' fifteen years
ago he built the house hs lived In and died
In the house known to all the upper East
Side as the "Spite house. " On account of the
publicity It has' .brought to him this house
has been the trial of Mr. Richardson's life ,
for he has always disliked newspaper no
toriety. What earned it the name ot "Spite
house" was the circumstances 'that caused
him to build it.
Sixteen years ago , 'Heyman ' Sarner de
sired to build a block of apartment houses
In East Eighty-second street west of and
adjoining a strip of land five feet wide and
104 feet deep , extending along Lexington
avenue , owned by Mr. Hichardson. To have
ils apartment houses front Lexington avenue ,
Mr. .Sarner made Mr. Hlchnrdson an offer of
$1,000 for the five foot strip. 'Mr. Hichard
son demanded $5,000. * Mr. Sarner declined
to pay it , and went ahead and built his apart
ment houses , thinking that the five foot strip
would bo useless to anybody , and that his
houses would have the frontage anyway.
Then Mr. Richardson began the construc
tion of a remarkable house. When com
pleted It wns n structure four stories high ,
104 feet long nnd five feet wide , cunningly
levlsed as a dwelling' ' place and a marvel to
ook upon. From the Lexington avenue Ride
t is n comfortable appearing house , full of
windows and studded with deep bays. From
Blghty-second street It gives one the Im-
iresalon of a bicycle case set on end. The
: unilturo In the houte was manufactured
exprcFsly to fit the rooms , and the beds are
narvels of the science of designing to fit a
specified space. Spiral staircases are the rule
In the house , and a person of girth baa diffi
culty In ascending them. It Is Impossible
for two persons to pass In the halls , one be
ing compelled to pass In n room until the
oilier goes by. The table In the dining room
Is a feat and six Inches wide and the rest of
the furniture in proportion.
To go from one end of the house to the
other on any floor It Is necessary to pass
through all the rooms and to dodge the
staircase.
Despite the manifest disadvantages of his
domicile , the eccentric millionaire de
clared vehemently that It Is the most com
fortable house In New York , and his wife
agreed with him.
In financial circles Mr. TUchardson was very
well known. Ho was considered one of the
most honest men , while very economical In
business.

For weeks nnd weeks Tom Sheppnrd had
been a sick man nt our mining camp nt
Itlack Hear Valley , relates the LoulHvU'e
C'ourlcr-Journnl. Everybody felt sorry for
him , nnd yet a sick man in 11 minim ; camp
UTIH n great Inconvenience and a burden.
One day Judge Watklns went up to we
him , nnd utter llnclliiK him no butter and
no worse than he had been for many week ? ,
ho paid :
"Tom , I don't want to poem cold-hearted
nbout thin tiling , but the boy * are beginning
to wonder why you don't die or get well , "
"Yes. reckon they ore , " replied , Tom , "uml
you can tell 'em I'm Koln ! to die. "
"Do you feel It's foritho best , Tom ? "
"I do. I iiln't got .inuuh to live fur , and
might ns well peg ant now as any other
time. I've been wnltln' ' fur a week or two. "
"Wultln'7 Fiir whuiT"
"Fur to cllo decently. I'm no duke or lord ,
but I want th.ngs fixed up In good shape.
I want to bo washed ; up , shaved , hev my
hair cut , nnd get Into some decent duds ,
and I won't die till I iln. "
The Judpe told the boyH.whnt wan required ,
and that afternoon two or three of 'cm
knocked off work and fixed Tom up. A
shirt was borrowed of one , n cout of an
other. an l by nnd by the sick man was
rinsed out In the bust the camp afforded.
When all this had bean done , he Raid :
"Now , then. I feel more like dyln' , hut
there's one thing more I want. I want Joe
Hillings to come up wJtlihla flddlo and pay !
me a few tunes. "
Joe was sent for , arid after considerable
kicking he got his liddle ami went up to
Tom's Flmnty. Tom was propped up In lied
nnd waiting , nnd JOR sat down nnd gave him
The Old Oaken Hucket. " "Old Folks nt
Homo , " "Nellie Gray , " and half a dozen
other well known airs. He had been play
ing for nn hour , his eye& on the hlllx oppo
site. , when Judge Wutklns looked In nnd
said :
"Cut It off , Joe. Tom's dead. "
And FO he was. and when the boys came
to observe the pleased and contented look
on hl face they were agreed that he hml
died decently and been given a fair start on
hla way.

Se\eral stories retold by tlic Kansas Clt >
Journal , which the reader can or canno
bellevo , Just ns he sees fit , were startec
after the Seneca tornado , two years ago , ha <
violated the state law In reference to th
malicious destruction of property and de
parted for parts unknown. Probably the
best one was this : A man was riding aloni
on horseback with a jug of whloky tlci
with a strap to the saddle-horn. After th
blow had ceased the jug handle was founc
Inside the Jug and the strap was sticking
out of the nozzle , the jug having bcei
blown Inside out without spilling u droi
of liquor.
Hero Is another pretty fair ono :
farmer was plowing around an obloni ,
patch of ground one day , and nt night tin.
tract of unploughed land Elill container
about five acres. When ho quit for the da >
ho left the plow sticking In the furrow , as
farmers often do. The tornado came aloof ,
and caught the plow , taking It around am
around the land until It was all ploughed.
A Konran abroad recently found a crowi
that did not seem to appreciate his conver
sation concerning the conspiracy of the for
elgn capitalists to compel the populist farm
ers nf Kansas to pay their honest debts , so
ho pulled out his stock of tornado stories
hoping to attract attention.
"I saw n cyclone once , " said he , "that
picked up a strawotack and moved It a mile
anil put It back , straw on straw , as It was. '
Two or three of the auditors yawned and
the Kansas man tried It again.
"Another time , " said he , "I saw n twister
euck sixty gallons of molasses out of a. barrel
in front of a grocery store and distribute it
to every family in town who had a bucket
out on the back tcp for the milkman. "
Ho cleared his throat and began again :
"Hack In the ' 70'n we had a terrible cyclone
In Western Kansas. It blew tlie cracks out
of the fences , pulled a cistern out of the
ground , moved a township line and changed
the day of the week. "
This last fusillade Induced one of the listen
ers to speak up. He said : "I do not know
much about cyclones , but once when I was
at rea I saw a waterspout pick up tons and
tons of water and carry it a mile and"
"Hold on , " cried the Kansan. "If you are
Bolng to degrade this conversation to the level
of a common lying contest I will retire. "
Anil he got up and walked away prompously.
A prominent Kansan Is accredited with
telling this :
"TeH you what's a fact. I have known It
to blow twelve days and nights on a stretch
and hold a sheep up against the side of the
barn until he starved to death. "
Probably the stoiy which better Illustrates
the position of the- populist farmer In Kan
sas than any told In recent years Is this :
Kansas man ( visiting In the east ) Yes , sir ,
Kan sis Is the country for the farmers. Look
at her vast prairies covered with crops KO
heavy that they make whole counties sink
down In the middle. Look at her corn crop ,
so vast that It crowded township lines Into
the river.
Same Kansas man ( at the populist meeting
in his own neighborhood ) Fellow-sufferers ,
ilry weather , Hessian files and gold bugs prey
lllco vampires on our state. Our once fair
state Is plastered over with mortgages so
heavy that wo have to bore a hole through
them with nn auger In order to plant corn.
Rouse , yo slaves !
There has been n premium offered for the
capture of the man who started this clever
Ho : "A Kansas farmer planted his farm In
popcorn , and gathered It Into his barn.
The barn took fire , the corn popped and
filled a ten-acre field. His old marc think
ing It a snowstorm , lay down and froze to'
death. "
In discussing the question in Western
Kansas not long ago , a citizen from the
short grass country said : "i think that
Kansas Is in need of a good deal of Irriga
tion. There are times when It Is no dry in
the western part uf the state that you have
to soak a hog over night before he will
hold swill. There nro places where water
is wet only on ona side. I know n place
where the owner of a ferryboat hauls water
cloven months In the year to keep his ferry
running. Why , water is so scarce there
that the men won't drlng It. The cause of
this drouth Is that tha railroads in Kansas
have cornered the water supply of the state
to put Into their stock , "
Hero is another drouth story told by n
traveling man : "I was driving across the
country tii a llttlo town In western Kaunas
the other day , when I met a farmer hauling
a wagon load of water ,
" 'Where do you get water ? ' said I ,
" ' the road about miles ' ho
'Up seven , re
plied , '
" 'And you haul water seven miles for
your family and stock ? '
" ' '
'Yep.
" 'Why In the name of sense don't you
dig a well ? '
" 'Because It's jest as far ono way as the
Other , stranger. ' "

J. N. Herbln , an American , with a long
white beard and feeble step , recently ap
plied at the ofllco of J. N. Po ton , United
States consular agent of Durango , Mexico ,
for shelter and food. Ho said that for nine
teen years he had be n living In Mexico , It
la the old story of a futile eoarch for great
riches. Mr. Harbin was born In Jackwou
county , Tennessee , seventy-seven years ago ,
and went to California In 1844. He says that
ho became associated with the late Senator
Hearst In mining and business ventures.
Ho made considerable money , and In 1878 he
came to Mexico as representative of a com
pany of California capitalists seeking raining
Inveitments In the country. Ho located the
St , Marcos and Socorro tllver mines , state of
Durango , for his company.
These two mines proved very rich and made
a fortune for the company owning them.
After clearing up $200,000 Mr. Harbin with
drew from the company and located the Vacu
mine for himself. Ho purchased mining ma
chinery In the United State * and began the
development of hla property on a largo scale.

came flooded with water and he met with u
serious accident , which confined him to his
bed for many months. The water could not
b-3 controlled , and things went from bad to
worse until all his money was cone.
These misfortunes disheartened him so
greatly that he thought It would be bettci
for his family nnd old friends to think him
dead , and the report reached his wife and
two children in Fresno , Cal. , fifteen years
ago that ho had died of mountain fever.
When his health had improved Mr. Harbin
went into the heart of the rugged Sierra
Madre Mountains , MO miles from the rail
road southwest of the city of DurMigo. He
found a favcin , wheie he has since lived the
life of a hermit , subsisting on wild game and
vegetables which he cultivated.
Ten weeks ago an American ore buyer for
the International Smelting and Refining com-
l > any was making a trip to remote mining
camps In the Sierra Madrea when he came
across the abode of Mr. Harbin by tlie side
of a mountain trail. He spent a night with
the old man , who told his remarkable story.
The ore buyer urged the old man to return
to his family and friends in California. This
the hermit said he would do , but ho had
no money.
Returning to the city of Durango the ore
buyer telegraphed the news that Mr. Harbin
was alive and wanted to return homo to n
friend In Fresno , Cal. A < | Ulck response was
received from the hermit's son , who tele
graphed money for tlie Journey. A messen
ger was sent Into the mountains for Mr.
Harbin , He was brought to Diirango and a
through ticket to Fresno was bought for him.
lieing very feeble , his ticket was either
lost or stolen , and he was put off the train.
Ills son was notlftrd and the money for nil-
other ticket was forwardfd. The old man Is
now speeding on his way to California to eo
tils family and friends after an absence of
nineteen years.
