LEGAL STRATEGY Kalsau Ului lllff Lawsuit. NOW RESIDES IN PORTLAND. Charles Lamb gives a funny account of the origin of roast pig. The owner of a litter of juvenile porkers, roasted to death by the casual burning of the fam ily fry, In picking about among the ruins and sorrowfully handling the crlp remains chanced to burn his fin gers. Clapping them to his mouth, he tasted a pleasure so exquisite that it made him at once forget his pain and loss. Tounclng on the prize, he not only dispatched the whole barbecue at a sit ting, but licked his lips for more. The story got wind, and the entire country was u'olaze with burning pig pens, nor was it till many years arcer that some adventurous Innovator shock ed the adherents of conservative cook cry by proposing a new and less expen sive process of preparing a favorite dish. It Is not for us lawyers to laugh at Xew York, January 26 A decision lias been tetu'iied in the BufTl') court against the Goulds in favor of Thomas A. Edion, the inventor, in a suit, that I has been eluniberi g in the courts tor I 30 vears, which, alth ugh oruinally for j $300,000 dauisges, now involves nearly J50.000.000.

Nay, I have even known the loss and finding of a patch of cabbages to bo solemnly aver red, and no lawyer thought of smiling fit It in tne department or evidence we have bean especially slow to learn. If you want to know how cramped and artificial its rules are just get Into the witness box to tell all you know about some case uud see how much you'll be let to tell. Very adroit was the march that Lije Looruis stole on the "statute of limita tions." Lije was the factotum of Guy's Neck. lie did a miscellaneous business as carpenter, cow doctor and coffin maker, adding to his other functions that of undertaking to the county poor house. He was withal an easy, good natured fellow, free to trust and a most Indulgent creditor. Among the others whom Lije had trusted to his cost was Greg Grimes, without exception the greatest promise maker and breaker In Guy's Neck. I verily believe he would if possible have put a creditor off to the last Judgment and then, on the score of its being a busy day, have begged him to wait till tomorrow. Greg had wheedled Lije with prom Ises till the latter's claim was "outlaw ed." Losing patience at last, Lije took his account over to the squire's, when, to his no small discomfiture, he learned that unless he could get a new promise tram his debtor, with a witness to it. he might whistle for his bill. Such fellows as Greg always know good deal of law, especially the sharp points of It Greg would talk as freely and was as full of promises as ever when he and Lije were alone, but be fore others would either evade the sub ject or else remain provoklngly mum. One day LIj drove up to Greg's door with ins old gray mare and spring was on, a plain pine coffin one of those flat topped affairs deemed good enough for poor folks being visible behind the Beat "Mornln, neighbor," sald Lrje. -bame to you," said Greg.

I Oregon's Exhibition. Tbe recent celebration at Portlaod of the hundredth anniversary of t e expe ditioo sent to secure our title to Oregon was an event which commanded the at tention of tbe entire world. Another event which attracted tne attention of tbe entire world 53 years ego was tbe introduction of Hosteller's citters, and dnnog those years its reoord of cures has beu so wonderful as to bold tbe public attention ooutiuu oosly. Dootors and druggists every where nave taken note of its wonderful efficacy and now freely prescribe and and lay her re bim tbe great scheme tf establishing a city near Chicago for giving homes, employment and religious life to all the followers of the Duwie church. The co operative industrial idea appealed to the banker. He resigned his position in the Commercial National and with Dowle went out and stablish- ed Zion City with its great lace factory. box factory, candy factory, printing In. use and one or two other large in dutttrial plants, employing in tbe ag gregate many thousands of people, all adherents of the Dowie faMi. Barnard hud entire charge of the department of practical finance and business. Dow e ws the spiri ual head of the city, and whe be wan Jed money simply made his requisition on the banker. ihe relationship existed six years, al though the two men proved to be dia metrically rppo-ite in temperament, trai' ing and method. Barnard was the leve'-he idf d, calm, calculating financier, careful in everything and jealous of hi business reputation, while Dowie, it is said, was impulsive, imperious, un reasonable and wholly without practical business ability. It has been said that he fr quently drew on tbe treasury for incredib'e sums, to be expended by himself to carry out whimsical ideas without consideration or hope of pofit, sod when Barnard refused to supply the money he generally grew furious and kept on insisting that it must be forth coming When the treiury was practically empty, as was "ft the case as a resu t of his financial follies, he would insist that the money be raised. It is said at one time he made a demand on the bank for $80 0U0, when there was no money in the treasury, tbe young in dustries were languishing for want of capit , and mny of the people were litera y without food. Joan Alexander Dowie is a native of Scotland. He became a traveling preacher, and drifted to Australia, where h is reported to have been in jail several times for various trifling infractions of the laws and ordinances. His first appearance on the Pacific coast was made at San Francisco, about 1888 when he started on a trip around the wond, lecturing as he went. He ar rived at Chicago at the time of the opening of the Columbian exposition. Seei g an opportunity to make himself widely Known by addressing great Stomaon crowds that would attend tbe exposition be decided to remain in Chicago, and rented a hall on the south side, where he began the career that has made bim a character of national, if not interna tional, fame.

It is very interesting. Tbe general financial manager soon saw that he cou d not stem tbe tide of disorganization and chaos that threat ened from Dowie's dictatorship. Fre quent conferences were held by him with ti e beads of the departments of the city, and remedies were deligemiy sought, but there seemed to be no way by which the weakness of the organiza tion could be mended with a man like Dowie as its supreme executive bead. About a year ago Dowie went to Mexico, on a tour of investigation, with a view to acquiring lands and estab lishing a new Zion. He traveled in state and spent money like water. In Mexico he invested large sums, and these being inadequate to his needs he demanded more from the banker at Zion City. It was refused. Then came the parting of the ways for Barnard.
