To SUCCEED AS A LAWIER
Hon. rrderic B. Oondcrt Tells ow to Beach
the Upper Bounds.

mt kinds of
Good for Its Oven Saike Itnther
Then I'ollcy.
.Fortunateiy for the numberless candidates
to forensic honors , no special gift Is needed
for the attainment of reasonable success at
the bar. It ja true that a certain minimum
of Intelligence Is required even for this , and
it wonU. no doubt , be held actionable today.
as it was omo centuries ago , to ciarge a
lawyer with being a fool. especially with an
expletite prcflx that adds Intensity to the
slur. the reason given beIng as true today
as it was then , that , however unnecessary
it might be for a parsoa ( a point which was
not directly ruled upon ) . it certainly was
necessary for an attorney to be endowed
with some intellectual capital.
Herein the lawyer is more fortunate than
the poet. Horace. no mean judge himself ,
nephew on the backs to call him a sad dog
and give him a huge lesther pocketbook
filled with Dank of England notes. In other
words , only the very few have the paths
eleared for them by kindly gentlemen who
hue a decent regard for the ties of blood.
Most of us must do the clearing away for
ourselves , and if we are what we ought
to be , may rejoice all the more In. the
triumph that is our own , though the
venerable relative who sends the early cc-
t.alner and makes the paymit of rent
merely a perfunctory and easy operation
should not be mentioned lIghtly even by
those who know him only through report
Sc ) f-Den I id.
If there Is one quality which more than
any other commands respect and deserves
success it is the faculty of self-denial , a real
and genuine capacity to stifle Inclination in
small , as well as great things , especially in
small Ones. No other ingredient enters so
largely into success as this capacity to turn
one's back deliberately on the pleasant
things of life and to take up , bravely and
cheerfully , its disagreeable duties. The
upsard steps are rough-hewn and hard to
the feet. The siren's lay is as sweet today
as when wise Ulysses atued the ears of
his companions so that her music would
not draw them from honor and duty and
turn them into swine. Nature abhor and
frowns upon effort : she smooths the path
of the sluggard , the self-indulgent. , the vain
and the foolish with her sweet melodies.
It Is easier to sleep than to watch , to glide

-
Insists that. neither men nor gods nor booksellers -
sellers will tolerate mediocrity in poets , but
he generously distinguishes In the lawyer's
favor.
In certain things a medium I ; endur'd
Who tries Messala's eloquence In vain ,
Nor can a knotty point of law explain
Like iearn'd Cascelilus , yet may justly
claim.
For pleading or advice , some - right t fame ;
But God and man , and ietier'd post denies
That poets ever are of middling size.
For Messala and Cascellius read Carter
or Chnate or Parsons , and the lines are as
true as when they wer written.
Of course , the youthful and ambitious aspirant -
pirant feels quite confident that he will be ,
a Cascellius or a Messala , which is all the
better ; he will not strike high if he aims ,
low. But he will admit that the moral applies -
plies to the other young men who are to be
his contemporaries , if not his rivals.
No S'ecinl Ituics of Action.
It is a common and vulgar error to sup.
pose that there are special rules of action
for the attainment of success at the bar-
a special drill , as It were , that fits the
student for his chosen calling. If there be
any such. they have escaped my observation.
Whatever the dignity of the profession. It
does not stand in this respect upon a different -
ferent plane from other pursuits. The rules
of morals. of arithmetic. of common sense ,
of expediency are the same for the lawyer
as for the less fortunate and distinguished
members of the human family. He cannot
add to or detract from the ten command-
menta nor from the revised statutes because
of his exalted calling. Diligence , sobriety ,
self.deniai , character must enter into his
stock in trade or be will be a bankrupt ,
provided he has assets to justify the
designation. He must be patient and long.
suering , he must learn to see others who
are , he is quite sure , his Inferiors , rise
rapidly to honor and preferment , while he
waits , chafing in obscure neglect All of
us cannot have a bank president in the
ascending line of our genealogical tree ;
kindly uncles like those In the English
plays are not often on hand to pat the
JEWELS AND FLUMES.
I. . I. . -
eIth the easy current than to breast the
waves and fight the tempest. Success , like
the kingdom of heaven , can only be taken
by storm. Easy going disciples of Eplourus
think that the game is not worth the can-
dIe , and that a result that costs so much
is too expensive. They may be right but
they are not. those who desire to succeed
in an arduous profession and who believe
that the honor and greatness of the reward
are worth a hundredfold more than they
cost.
Perhaps this Is the place to add that in
the law as in other callings honesty is the
best policy. I have beard this frequentiy as-
serted. but I am not quite convinced that
it is true. I have known sorry knaves in
every profession or trade to achieve what
they and many others might call success.
and it was success if by that word is meant
the diversion of considerable sums from
the pockets of others into their own , without -
out any violation of the penal code. But
perhnps success means something more and
Implies. of necessity. the coerced and deserved -
served respect of good men. Be this as it
may , that honesty will always be trail and
open to suspicion which Is fed by the belief -
lief that it pays better than the opposIte.
If the younger men will look at the seniors
who have achieved real success , they will
not need to be told that these men were
loyal and true , whether it was policy or
not.
not.To
To sum up , then , it Is honest work that
achieves success , for work means self-de-
nial , and self-denial means virility. It is
the man who succeeds in the end. If he be
a real man , be will succeed without set
rules , if he be not , then. being only the
image of a man , he may deceive himself
and his friends with the belief that fortune
baa been a stepmother and frowned on him
from his birth. Why disturb him and them
if they are thus made happy ?

A picturesque and hiutofic figure in the
daily life of Denver is Captain John D. How-
land. artist , writes Neise lanes in the Dos.
ton Herald. fTc was born there before Den-
vet , or more than forty years ago , when
the early settietnent was on the other side
of Cherry creek ami was known as Aurarla.
He has variously been a guide. hunter , sot-
dier , miner , government scout explorer and
Indian agent but always an artist. He is
the pioneer painter of the Rocky mountain
region , and no one lives who possesses the
same power to place on canvas the perfect
picture of the Indian , the buia.lo and the
scenery that surrounded them on their native -
tivo plains. And when be has passed , as
his subjects are passing , to the happy bunt-
tug grounu , .nere will no none to nil ais
place. There will be Frederick Itemingtons
and Buffalo Bills. but no Jack liowlands.
He is the llret hate of hi. profession. Just
now his head is filled 'with war and he has
sent an application to Washington for some
kind of army appoIntment of the higher
rank , for he is not physically fit to take
the field as a private.
When just touching 14 years young How-
land ran away from home , wearing a coonskin -
skin cap and carrying a rifle , powder horn
and bowie knife , after the style of his border -
der hero. He also had S7 cents and a dog ,
but ho soon parted with these. He reached
Cincinnati and obtained passage on the
Ellen Gray for St. Louis. Jack's father was
a Mississippi steamboat captain , which was
of benefit to him. At the very start the
steamer was run into by the cotton carrying
boat Arkansas and shipwrecked opposite
Goose island. Jack had a narrow escape
from drowning. Next he shipped on the
steamer Argonaut which stopped at Evans-
yule , Intl. Jack went ashore to visit an
aunt and during his absence the steamer
blew up and many lives were lost. He
eventually succeeded in raching St. Luis
as a stowaayoa the Polar Bear. Follow-
lag this , he got a jobon the steamer Ben
Lewis through an acquaintance of his
father's. named Joe Violet , a bartender on
the boat. Early one morning. ahile Violet
was busy playing poker and Jack was
asleep , the boilers burst , which ended the
career of the Ben Lewis , Violet and many
others. Lucky Jack Ilowland was picked
up nine miles below Cairo , clinging to a
cask. He could never tell how ho came to
pick up the cask as a lire preserver , but he
probably alighted on it he came down.
After three weeks in the hospital Jack How-
land was ready for mor adventures , but

He soon picked up the Slourtalk and by
reason of that and his popularity he became'

theless , young Holad made many sketches
quietly for his own amusement. and this
training and memorizing was of great value
to him in after years. It would take too
long to detail his life with the Sioux. It
might be stated , however , to give an Idea
as to the number of buffalo on the plains
in those days , that he engaged in a three
dayy' hunt with a big band of Sioux which
killed over 15,000 buffalo in that time , solely
for their hides.
Stories of wonderful discoveries of gold
in Colorado induced the adventurous young
man to visit It and try his fortunes as a
miner. The fall of 1860 found him in the
new settlement of Central City , but luck did
not pick him out as a favorite , and he had
rather a tough time of It. His partner at
prospecting was Solon 13. Ackley. who owned
an old violin. upon which ho could play a
little dance music , Winter snowed them
in. It was intensely cold most of the time ,
and there was a scarcity of food , particularly -
larly for those who had no money to pay
to , . it. It looked very blue for the young
gold hunters. Somehow or other the rough
miners did not appreciate art to the point
where they would exchange bacon and
beans for plctureswjct Ijowland drew , but
they unhesitatingly gave food and lodgings
for such music as 'cklcy could draw out
of his squeaky violin. Appreciating the
necessities of the sitqatioii , Howiand stopped
drawing pictures and o'riiinated a lot of jig
and clog steps , wjt1ci..1i danced to the
great edification tths1ers. They went
from cabin to ca&n , tog themselves
"the troubadoura. " $ , . the long
winter evenings , and themselves
from starvation until warm , sun of
spring released them fronrnowbound cap-
tivtty , Rowland hung around the mining
camps of the state , and upon the breaking
out of the war enlisted in company 13 , First
Colorado , under Colonel 3. M. Chivington.
and was later made capjo4n of the Seventh
cavalry , Ha partIeipa1ti the battle of
Apache canyon , wherei'exas confeder-
-
ates were driven back , and also during the
Indian war of 1561 , In which the savages
became so bold that they came very close
to Deayer , murdering the Hungate fatally
of four at Box Elder creek. Captain 110w-
land has a scalp of one of these Indian
butchers banging with his costumes and
curiosities. That year Colonel Chivingtons
command of OO soldiers surprised a large
band of Cbeyennes and Arapahoes at Sand
creek , and killed 131 of theta , with a loss
of fifty lil.I and wounded. Captain How-
land was mustered out at the close of that
year.
Becomes n Artist.
By that time be bad achieved quite a
reputation as an artist and be decided to
adopt it a profession. 'With this in view
he started on his first visit to Paris. It
was a long and slow trip across the plains.
He joined the famous Hunt train , which
was attacked by Indians. This train was
in ehargo of United States Marshal Hunt ,
afterward governor of Colorado , who was
vonreying prisoners to Michigan. A num.
her of others bad joined the party for
greater sorority. among them several
women. The Indians besieged the train for
nine days. The ammunition of the whites
was almost gone , so the small cannon which
the outfit carried was loaded with trace
chains with wet gunny sack pieces for wad-
ding. During the night the temperature
reached twenty degrees below zero and the
gunny cloth in the cannon had frozen solid.
It was almost certain that when it was
fired the cannon would exulode and kill the
gunner. It was it job no one wanted. When
the savages made their charge at daybreak
the thoughts of the wotneb and children
stirred Captain Rowland and he touched oft
the cannon , expecting to be blown to pieces.
It held together , but the slaughter of Indiana -
diana and horses was so great that they
gave up the attack.
Returning from France in 1867 , through
the endorsement of such men as Generals
William S. Harneyy. . T. Sherman. Terry
and Thomas Murphy , superintendent of Indian -
dian affairs , Captain lowland was appointed
secretary of the Indian peace commission to
the Northern Sioux. Hlskaowlcdge of their
language and mannera , beside persoia1 acquaintance -
quaintance , made him a most valuable man.
It Is related that while Generals Harney ,
Sanborn and others of the commission were
stopping at a military post in the Indian
country a party of forty lodges of Sioux
surprised a couple of herders who were attending -
tending seventy bead of government horses
and mules grazing on the North Platte.
Fourteen well mounted bucks charged upon
theta , and the leader , with a wicked looking
spear. sought to kill the herders , but they
managed to get away and alarmed the soldiers -
iers at the fort , Captain \Volls and a corn-
pany of the Second cavalry started in pursuit -
suit , accompanied by Captain Howland , clad
in his old buckskin suit , which had seen
so much service. They followed the trail
for many miles over the Black Hills , every
step of the way being perilous. Finding
themselves so closely pursued the Indians
separated into several parties , first spearing
to death twenty of the mules. The soldiers
. got onto the main trail and followed it until
dark , camping in a ravine that night without -
out fire. At daylight they took up the trail
again and followed it to the Bad Lands ,
which they did not dare enter. Upon their
return they narrowly escaped being ambushed -
bushed by OO Indians.
After this Captain How'land spent many
years sketching and painting in Utah , New
Mexico and Caiifornia. Early in the 'Os
he mdo a perilous journey of exploration
in -canoe for 1OO miles down the Rio
Grande , something no white man had ever
attempted. He had many narrow escapes
In deep , dark canons through which the
hver fusbed and in avoldibg tails and
rapids. . It was a most excttin trip and was
cothplished tn the-.gtsrkable' time of
twenty days. ' . :
I 1182 CaptaIn Howland 'made- another
trip o Paris to complete hls'studies. Upon
his return he settled in this city , where
he still resides with his family. For two
terms he was presidedt of the Colorado
Pioner association.

1- Some of His Paintings.
Oiue.ef-the bet known of Captain flow-
land's paintings is that entitled "A Frontier -
tier I'nquest. " It represents seven wise
looking buftalo gathered In a broken semi.
cItc1J3 around the body of a dead Indian ,
which lies stiff and stark 'mid the prairie
cactzs , with a hole in the breast from
which a5 run a crimson stream. There is
a look of inquiry in the eyes of the big
bisons , and one cannot help wondering , as
ther appear to , as to why and how it hap-
, pened. Studies for this were made in 1562 ,
but It was not until 1850 that it was painted
for'ffenry R. Wolcott , a brother of Senator
Wolcott. , In 1551 llowland repainted it for
Sir Morton Frewcn , who was hunting -in
this country at the time. Fr wen afterward
sold it to Sir Randolph Churchill.
Another is "The Buftalo Hunt , " the main
objects being a wounded and dying buffalo
about to fall to the ground , and a typical
I frontiersman on a horse in the act of firing
the final shot. The , 'jffalo is large and
shaggy , and full of fight but his wound8
are too severe. and , despite his desire to
give battle , his knees bind and his head
almost touches the ground. In the middle-
ground is an Indian , who rides an ordinary
horse , without saddle , bridle or blanket.
bareheaded and only armed with bow and
arrow , while the superiority of the white
mati is shown by his spirited charger , fine
saddle , sombrero and rifle. In the background -
ground are shown the herd of fleeing buffalo
and a winding stream.
"The Rear Guard" represents a. big bull
buffalo on the crest of a ridge , with bead
bait lowered and eyes watching for danger.
The herd is passing over the ridge. There is
a background of peaks and valleys and the
reproduction of the tints and shadows pe-
cullar to Colorado is perfect. The buffalo
sthpds out as ii alive.
"Maternal Solicituile" shows a buffalo cow
and calf surrounded by four miserable , but
wicked , coyotes , who have separated them
from the herd , but are too cowardly to make
a direct attack. The solicitude of the mother
is indicated by her defensive attitude , while
the calf cuddles up to her In fright. One
of the coyotes eeka to draw the attention of
the mother , while one is seen sneaking up
behind to seize the calf. while the others
are ( a various natoral attitudes.
"Looking foP Trouble" pictures three Indians -
dians of the uncivilized sort decked out in
all the glory of paint and gaudy dress ,
racing pell.utell on their ponies down a
sate brush slope , evidently bent upon some
kind of deviltry , as indicated by the wicked
expression on their ( aces. One flourishes a
Colt's revolver , another a club. and the
third a spear , This is full of life and action ,
every muscle being shown , and men and
horses given the proper pose.

em naval gnnnery In actual warfare. It
is said that , although the art of the gun-
maker has been for years pitted against that
of the armor manufacturer , the Ireateat
dimcuity experienced at sea is not the piece-
log of the enemy's armor plate , but the hitting -
ting of the ship at nil.
The main trouble , naval oiflcers say , Ii
that , in aiming big guns , only a 'very minute
picture of the ship aimed at can be seen ,
Prof. Alger of the United States Naval War
college at Newport recently declared that at
a convenient fighting distance a ship of the
size of the Indiana appears to be about one
inch long. This , be added , was the case
when the ship was looked at Under ordinary -
nary conditions , In actual warfare. however -
ever , this picture would be considerably lea-
sened by the fact that the man who aimed
the gun would have to pay quite as much
attention to the alignment of his sIght as
be would to the position of the target and
that he would have to do all these things
at the same time.
Naval authorities say that the recent occurrences -
currences at the bombardment of Matanr.as
bear out these st , ments. It. Is noticed
that although the battleships had no dUfl-
culty whatever In bitting the tort-s not onu
of the nuenet-ons shots bred troz the shore
hit a boat. Very much th same coodjUoa
'was encountered at the bornbn.rduient of
Alexandria by the British beet in the earl7
Oe. In that case the vessel. were at anchor
in smooth water and their targets were
goo.i big ones , Although the range was
short the damage done by the forts was in-
signifleant.
Another thing which it i hoped 'will be
cleared up thoroughly is the exact utility
of the fast unarmored cruiser in batUe.
Theoretically it is intended to attn these
boats with a multitude of machine guns
carrying stnll caliber bullets. The fire
from these is to be directed on every port'
hole. conning tower slot or aperture in gun
shields that can be made out from the decks
ot the boat. It is believed that the fire from
one of thee boats will be so searching and
withering that all the omeers in the conning
tower will be killed and that the crews of
the guns will be so decimated that the ship
attacked by one of these modern spitfires
wilt be put out of action in five minutes.
There are opponents to this theory , bow-
ever , and they say that test as an unarmored -
armored cruiser may be able to go a modern
shell can travel faster. They cast doubt
upon the ability of the unarmored cruiser to
turn loose the hail storm of lead with which
it is credited and declare that one shot from
a big gun on a modern battleship will put
the unarmored 'cruiser both out of action
and out of existence.

A short time previous to the d.parture
of Colonel Colt to the defense of his country -
try , a reporter had an interview with him
as to certain statements about the Amer-
lean remedy. Fe-ru-na. The colonel stated
most emphatically as follows :
"The l'e-ru-na Drug Manufacturing Corn-
pany of this city is counted as one of the
leading manufacturtag enterprises of the
city. The proprietors are well.known prom-
mont citizens. The president Dr. 5 , II.
Hartman , is a physician of high standing
and an enterprising citizen of undoubted it-
tegrity. TheIr most prominent remedy , Pe-
ru-na , as a catarrh remedy , has made icy-
eral'remarkable cures to cay knowledge. I
desire to give both the remedy and the
company my hearty endorsement , "
A. 13. Colt.
Thus it appears that Colonel Coil has
known of several remarkable cures which
Fe.ru-na ba-s made in cases of catnrrh. As
a matter of fact , there are few people
in the United States who do not know of
one or more similar cures. Fe-rn-na cures
catarrh wherever located. Catarrh of the
bead , catarrh of the throat , stomach , liver ,
bowels , kidneys and catarrh of the pelvic
organs. The following are samples.of the
remarkable cures which Fe-ru'na has made ,
