Grim Death and a Verdict
The circumstances under which Cap

It was a curious sort ot race between

a jury s verdict on one hand and death
on tne oilier, wttn me case against :np
, . . , , . .
dvmg captain as the stakes in the
contest. '
Captain Trask lay dying at the Good '
Samaritan hospital from a paralytic
stroke before he had an opportunity to,
give a word of testimony in a suit for 1
12,500, in which he was defendant. ;
After he was stricken, the c-ntuel !
Jodie Williams and C. E. S. Woods, for j
the plaint 5", and Attorney W. W. Cot
ton, for the defendant stipulated the'
admission of certain statements the
captain would have made had he been
present, and in this way the case pro- j
ceeded. ;
As it was realized almost immediately
niter the defendant's illness thai it would
prove fata'., then the attorneys began a
peculiar contest. On the one side there '
were subterfuges and technical hitches
and skii.'n! inventions of delaying the
proceedii-gs in the trial waiting for :
death. ;
On the other side was the equally as !
skillful efforts to press the trial, and '
hcrry it to a close, and cet the jury on i
the verdict before the defendant's death.
And the defendant lay unconscious all
this time waiting for not the verdict s
t)ct death! Both were against him. j

the proceedings would have been im-;

still alive when the verdict was agreed
upon and reported, and therefore stands.

Foreclosure of the liens of the govern
ment against the Pacific roadE is almost 1
certain to le begun. Whether the
suits will be concluded is another mat-'
ter. It is almost certain that when the
intention of the government is made !
clear, various syndicates will make !
offers to protect the federal interests.
It is common talk here that the Van-,
derbilt interests have already signified
an intention to offer lo pay the govern- ,
jnent 50 per cent of its lien and secure
the balance.
Congressmen talked with, say the gov
ernment occupies an impregnable po
sition. Its mortagagee cannot be fore
closed as the sovereignty cannot be
sued or deprived of its rights by process
of law. The closest student of the eit
nation in congress believe that fore
closure proceedings will be instituted at
once by the attorney-general, and they
point to that portion of the president's
message in which he outliued UU policy

MINISTER'S EXPERIENCE,
THE RESULTS CF LONG, HARD RIDING-
FULLY 3,000 MILES ON HIS WHEEL.
He Makes Some Reflections on the Benefits of the
Sport and Tells of its Dangers.
Voui Ihc
The Eev. Wm. P. F. Ferguson, whoo pie
tare we give above, will not be unfamiliar
by sisht to many readers. A youns,' man, he
has Kill had an extended experience as
foreign missionary, teacher, editor. Iwturer
and pastor tiia; 1ms given him a wiile ac
quaintance in many parts of the country.
In an interview a few days ago he said :
' In the early summer of '94I went upnn
a tour through Canada on my wheel. Aly
route was from Utiea to Cape incent thence
bvKeamer to Kini'ston. anJ from there alou
the north shore of the lake to Toronto and j
around to Niagara Falls. I arrived at Cape)
Vincent at 5 o'clock, having ridden against i
a snrong head wind all day.
"Alter a aeiigntim sail tnrougn tne
Thousand Islands, I stepped on shore in
that quaint old city of Kingnon. A slight
shower had fallen and the streets were damp,
so that wisdom would have dictated that 1,
leg-weary as I was, should hare kept in
doors, but so anxious was I to see the old
city that I spent the whole evening in the
streets.
" Five o'clock the next morning brought
a very unwelcome discovery. I was lame i
in both ankles and knees. The head wind 1
and the damp streets had proved an unfor
tunate combination. I cave, however, little
thought to it, supposing it would wear off in
a few hours, and the first flush of sunlight
saw me speeding out the splendid road that
leads toward Nupanee.
"Night overtook meata little village near
Fort Hope, but found me still lame. I rested
the next day, and the next, but it was too
late; the mlichief was done. I rode a good ,
many miles durini; the rest of the season, but
never a day and edom a mile without pain.
"The winter came and I put away my
wheel, saying ' now I shall get well,' but to
my disappointment I grew worse. Some
davs ray knees ulmost fortade walking and
my unties would not permit me to wear
shoes. At times I suffered severe pain, so
severe as to make study a practical impos
sibility, yet it must lie understood that
I concealed the condition of affairs as far
us possible.

in which a good deal of space wns taken by
an article in relation to Dr. Williams' Pink
Pills. I did not at that time know wlmr
they were supposed to cure. I should
have paid no attention to the article had I
not caucht the name of a rady whom I
knew. Pading, I found that she, in similar
circumstances, had Iteen greatly benefited
by the us? of Pink Pills, and knowing her
as I did I had no doubt of tbe truth of the
statement that she hud authorized.
The first box was not gone before I saw
a chance, and the third had not been
finished before all signs of my rheumatic
trouhles were sone to stay.
" I say 'gone to stay,' for though then
has lieen every opportunity for a return o:
the trouble, I have not felt the first fwinco
