[NGEHSOWITS LAW

The: Great OratOr Will Deybte His
Time to Lecturing Only.

HIS PRACTICE Enormous.

Many Persons Assert That His Legal Work
Yielded Him 8250.000 Annually.
His Rise In Public Life and
His Subsequent Fame.

NEW YORK, Jan. 22.—Bob Ingersoll has
quit the law. His name is on the office di-
rectory in the entrance of 58 William street,
but the desk on the third floor of the build-
ing at which he used to sit is vacant.

A man went up there and asked another
man if Colonel Ingersoll wohld be in soon.
The answer was that he would not.

“When will he be here?” inquired the
caller. The man at a desk replied:

“I do not know; maybe never. He has
quit his ofiice. He has quit practicing law.

'He gave up his law business Jan. 1, and

so far as I am advised he will never appear
in court again unless it is to wind up
some old case in which he has an interest. ’ ’

As the caller passed out of the building
he met others, and he overheard them ask-
ing for Colonel Ingersoll.

One man who wore an old silk hat like
that which Lincoln kicked into the air in
Springfield, 1115., when he heard he was

ROBERT INGEBSOLL,
nominated for president asked the elevator

boy if Bob Ingersoll was in. The elevator
boy said that Colonel Ingersoll had quit
the building.

The man with the. ancient pattern hat
replied: ,

“Then he must be dead. Bob would not
quit the law business as long as he could
stand up. ”

But the fact remains that Colonel In-
gcrsoll has quit the practice and is now
devoting his time to lectures.

At Work on 3 Lecture.

A reporter called at the house of Colonel
Ingersoll, .‘220 Madison avenue, and veri-
fied the statement that he had given up his
law practice. The famous lawyer, lecturer
and wit was not “at home for an inter-
view. ”

Colonel Ingersoll was very busy finish-
ing a. lecture which he will deliver for the
first time next Sunday evening in Boston.
Its subject was not given out.

Wall street, Broad street and William
street, where Bob Ingersoll was seen daily
for years, will see him no more, except oc-
casionally.

His practice was extensive. Some peo-
ple who think they know say it was
worth $250,000 yearly. If he had confined
himself to it. it would have been worth
more.

Colonel Ingersoll lectured last in J anes-
ville, Wis., Nov. 13, 1896. He was taken
ill on the platform before the lecture was
finished. He had sciatic rheumatism. He
hurried to his home, in this city, and has
been resting and recuperating since.

A few weeks ago he was out and was
seen down town. People followed him
along Broadway until he disappeared.

Colonel Ingersoll’s history [is interest-
ing. He was born in Dresden, N. Y.,
Aug. 11, 1833. His father was a Congre-
gational preacher. He ministered to a con-
gregation in this city many years ago.
The church was an old theater. Robert
was baptized when he was 3 years old.

His Public Career.

When Robert went to Illinois, he was 12
years old. He got his education there and
began practicing law in Peoria.

In 1860 he was defeated in a race for
congress. In 1862 he was colonel of the
Eleventh Illinois cavalry. He was a. pris-
oner of war and afterward exchanged.

When Dick Oglesby was governor of Illi-
nois, after the war, Colonel Ingersoll was
his attorney general.— In 1880 Ingersoll
began lecturing.

He was first conspicuous in national
politics in 1876 after his nominating
speech in the Cincinnati convention, in
which he gave Mr. Blaine the title of
“plumed knight.”

He went to Washington and engaged
with his brother in the practice of law.
The brother died, and Colonel Ingersoll re-
moved here in 1883. His appearance in
court never failed to attract a crowd.

He was an ardent advocate of McKinley
and Hobart in the recent election. His
last speech of the campaign was delivered
in Carnegie Music hall, in this city, Oct.
30.

The Sultan and the Powers.

LONDON, Jan. 22,—Official correspond-
ence between Great Britain and Russia,
published here today, shows that the Mar-
quis of Salisbury, on Oct. 20 last, proposed
that the embassadors at Constantinople
should formulate reforms to be enforced
by the powers. M. Shiskin,'then the act-
ing Russian minister for foreign affairs,
replied on Nov. 18, saying that the czar
had decided that it was impossible to agree
to coercive measures against the sultan.

Dominion, Savings Banks Deposits.

MONTREAL, Jan. 22.—According to the
financial report of the Dominion govern-
ment for the fiscal year ending J une 30,
1896, the amount to the credit of depositors
in the government savings banks was $40,-
799,318, an increase of $2,348,819 in the
12 months.

A "Central” Goes Up In Flam”.
WAXAHACHIE, Tex., Jan. 22. — The
Bradspaw block, including the Bell tele-
phone central office and a number of stores,
saloons, restaurants and a. newspaper of-
fice, has been burned, causing a total loss
of $65,000; insurance, $25,000.

. Big Fire In Boston.

BOSTON, Jan. 22.—The wholesale gro-
cery establishment of Charles E. Moody &'
Co., in Commercial block, a. six story
granite warehouse on Commercial street,

IISIIIISIIIIS’ TERMS.

The Measure of Mr. Hill Again Con-
sidered In the Senate.

CAME VERY NEAR PASSING.

Senator Sherman Prevented It, and the
Bill Went Over—Chandler‘s Pleasan-
try at Vice President's Expense.
\Vork of the House.

, ;WASHINGTON, Jan. 22. —The senate chap-
lain made feeling reference today to the
affliction of Senator Harris (Dem., Tenn.)
in the death of his wife and the infirmity
of his own health and to the continued ill-
ness of the senator from Wyoming, Mr.
Warren. '

The house bill was passed detaching
Andrain county, Mo., from the western
"district and attaching it to the eastern dis-
trict of that state.

Mr. Elkins (Rep, W. Va.) made a fa-
vorable report on the bill extending the
time for constructing the bridge over the
East river at New York.

The house joint resolution authorizing
the use of Fort Bidwell, California, for
an Indian training school was agreed to.

The bill was passed extending the time
for building a. railroad through the Omaha
and Winnebago Indian reservation in Ne-
braska.

Mr. Chandler (Rep, N. H.) present-ed
an amendment to the naval appropriation
bill directing the secretary of the navy to
report concerning a design, cost, etc, do
monument to the late admiral of the navy,
David D. Porter, at Washington. .7.

Mr. Gallinger (Rep., N. H.), chairman
of the committee on pensions, pointed out
that, in amending certain senate pension
bills, the house of representatives was re-
ducing them to the figure the pensioners
now receive under the general law.

Mr. Hill (Dem., N. Y.) called up his
bill, recently introduced, establishing a.
term of four years for postmasters. It was
about to pass when Mr. Sherman inter-
posed and said there should be time to ex-
amine the measure, as it cstab..shed a fix-
ed tenure of four years and compelled re-
moval after four years.

Mr. Chandler said the bill had no po-
litical significance and had the approval of
senators of both parties on the postofiice
committee.

“I fear it will lead to a. scramble for
these postofficcs at the close of every four
years’ service,” suggested Mr. Halo.

A Laugh on the Vice President.

“I call the attention of the senator,” re-
plied Mr. Chandler, "to the. almost uni-
versal scramble now. Whenever there is a.
change of politics, we see such a. scramble,
as the presiding officer of the senate very
well knows.” _

There was suppressed laughter—in which
the vice president joined—at the reference
to Mr. Stevenson’s former service as assist
ant postmaster general.

The bill finally went over.

The contest over electric light conduits
in the streets of Washington wits then re-
sumed, Mr. Hill speaking at length.

The senator arraigned the old company
as a monopoly, and then branched off to a
general arraignment of trusts and the vast
aggregations of capital throughout the
country. The people were rising against
these vast syndicates, notwithstanding
they were formed by many very eminent
men, including members of the church.
And yet every time a Voice was raised
against such a. monopoly some gentleman
arose and protested against any disturb-
ance of business interests. It was the same
plea entered in behalf of the Sugar trust
and every other trust.

In the House.

Without preliminary business the house
today resumed the consideration of the
Yost-Tucker contested election case from
the Tenth Virginia district, which was de-
bated all day yesterday.

Mr. De Armond (Dem., Mo.), 3. member
of the elections committee, took the floor
in support of the majority report, which
favored the contestce, Mr. Tucker.

Shipments of Poor Wool From Russia.

WASHINGTON, J an. 22,—Much of the
wool which is exported in large quantities
from Russia to the United States, entering
principally at New York and Philadelphia,
is being adulterated with “sour wool,”
gathered from the clippings of sheepskins
made into clothing. “This “sour wool,”
according to United States Consul Heenan
at Odessa, is nearly worthless to our man-
ufacturers. In anticipation of the taking
of wool from the free list, large quantities
are being hurried to the United States.

Nicaraguan Government Concessions.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 22.—-United States
Consul O’Hara at Bluefields, Nicaragua,

licemen and firemen the same'privilege on
electric and cable surface roads.

that Bellwood, the country residence of S.
S. Howland and the home of the Bellwood

LONDON, Jan. 21.—-The Times comments
editorially today upon the fears expressed
by a correspondent in the United States

Times finds it difficult to believe that the

will fall on our shoulders if it lapses.”

TATTOOED AND ‘THEN JILTED. "

He Suffered Torture: in Order to Gain the
Object of His Choice.

John Howard, 11 Nantucket whaler,
has been the victim of a love affair as
grotesque as any that could be imag-s
ined. ‘ 4‘

Howard was the son of a Methodist
minister, of Massachusetts. He was a
wild boy, and after many scrapes ran
Off and went to sea. '

The ship called at the island at Nu~
kahiva, in the Marquesas group, to
take in fresh water. Howard was
sent ashore, and was captured by the
natives, who somehow regarded How-
The vener-

daughter, Taptnthui, made much of
the young white man, and hence he
became the most honored man of the
tribe, especially chosen to communi-
cate the will of the tribe’s god.
Wealth and honors were showered
upon him. Taptathul taught him the
native language. ‘ .

By this time Taptathui had gained
possession of his heart. He wanted to
marry her. At last she consented, on
one condition—that he should be tat-
tooed like all the men of the tribe.

To that Howard readily consented,
little dreaming of the torture he was
to undergo.

Howard was a. far dificrent man in
apearance than when he first landed
on the island. Figures and designs in
narrow bands were tattooed diago-
nally across his face in different col-
Dl'S.

When it was all 'done Howard was
ready to claim his bride. With his
decorated body he called at the priest’s
temple, but the priest waved him
aside.

“You have deceived us once,” he
said. “You have cast ridicule on our
god, and it would be blasphemy to let
you take the fairest of the god‘s at-
tendants for your wife."

“You, too,” added Taptathui, “have
brought famine to our valley. ‘Your
race has brought pestilence among us.
You white men are deceivers, and be—
sides, any man who would become so
subservient to a woman as to consent
to undergo the tortures you did while
you were being tattooed would not
make a fit husband for the daughter
of the ruler of the Typecs."—New

FORT BLUNDER.

Built by Mistake on Canadian Land and
Thus Won its Name. \

Geucml Miles has recently rchm-
mended the fortifying of a number of
our seaports and the enlargement of
some of the posts along our frontier.
One of these is Fort Montgomery, that
stands at the outlet of Lake Cham-
plain. The mentioning of this long-
forgotten old fort recalls a queer fact
c6nnected with its beginning, and long
ago forgotten. In 1841 it was decided
to build a large post at the entrance to
Lake Champlain, and work was be-
gun on Fort Montgomery, as it was
called. After a good deal of work had
been done it was found that the walls
of the fort were over the line dividing
the United States from Canada. Work
was stopped and a. survey made, and
part of the work was torn down. Lat-
or on it was ascertained that part of
the walls of the post were still over
the dividing llne. An agreement was
made with the English Government
which gave to the United States that
part built upon, and the outline of the
old fort was completed, but as these

mistakes had caused so much trouble ,

the post was nicknamed “Fort Blun-
der.” Work was stopped on the old
post at the breaking out of the late
war, and since that time it has been
under the charge of an ordnance ser-
geant—Cincinnati Enquirer.

 

some Quibbl'es at Our Laws.

Why ten—pins? It was originally
played with nine, and known as nine-
pins, but the Legislature prohibited
the vicious game of nine-pins, and the

'Yankees added a pin.

One or two interesting quibbles have
come to this chair through the law
journals.

One of them illustrates the small es--
function in which dogs are held.

In West Virginia, where it is not lar-
ceny to take a dog, a dogtaker was in-
dicted for stealing the chain to which
the dog was fastened. The defendant
pleaded guilty, and was sentenced to
100 seconds in jail. '

In states where it is not larceny to
abstract a promissory note, it may be
petty larceny to abstract the paper on
which it was written.

I‘hnt was a. very serious quibble by
which the New Hampshire court, after
a defendant Had been acquitted on it
charge of murder as principal, indict-
cd, convicted and banged him on a
charge of being accessory before the
fact—Green Bag.

She Wears a Dagger.

The up to date young woman is not!
wearing a dagger. Not for the pun
pose of stabbing her lover, however,
out merely to add to the picturesque
ness of her apparel. The dagger is
large as ornaments go, and her favor-l
Ite way to wear it is thrust through
the drapery of her gown at the cars
age.

When worn with evening gowns tht
tilt of the dagger should gleam with
precious stonel. ~With these costly
daggers the blade is generally of gold,
and the hilt studded with diamond:
and sapphires or diamonds and cur
eralds.

Daggers for evening wear are also
most effective with the hilt entirely
3overcd with fire Opals.

Even with her tailor-made gown, tht
society girl is wearing a dagger. It is
then made of beaten steel, in prefer
ance to gold or silver, and is a stylish
Idbcssory to a military tailor gown.

 

Reflections of a. Bachelor.

There aren‘t near enough married
lovers. .

When a man seems to have a grudge
against ministers you can be sure he‘s
married.

A woman is just as likely as not to
wear a handsome skirt over a soiled
and Ilragglcd pctticoat—on a- nice day.

When you catch a man singing soft-
ly to himself in a high key you may
know he‘s imagining himself with a
fine tenor voice.

best in them. , ' .
