USTICK Rufus I
W. Peckham, the i
new associate jus- j
tiee of the su- i
; preme court, was j
| born in Albany, fif-
ty-eight years ago. j
He is the son of the j
( late Justice Rufus j
W. Peckham, who
was elevated to the
appellate bench in
1S70. after having served as a district
attorney of Albany county, as member
of congress, and in 1859 having pp"
elected justice of the supreme court.
The elder Justice Peckham, with his
wife, was drowned at sea in the \ Hie
de Havre accident in 1873.
Young Peckham passed through t ic
Albany Academy, and at the age o
he entered the office of Colt & Peckham,
where, after three years of studj he was
admitted to the bar. With the same as-
siduity that he displayed in his studies
he pushed his advancement in the pio-
fes3ion of his choice and soon obtained
reputation and clients. Soon after his
admission to practice he became a mem-
ber of the firm of Peckham & Tremain,
and continued in that connection until
the death of Mr. Tremain, when the firm
became Peckham & Rosendale.
As his father did before him. the
younger Peckham began the ascent of
the ladder of legal fame by means of
the district attorneyship of Albany
county, which he attained in 1869. He
made a brilliant record as a prosecutor.
He always took a deep interest in State
and National politics, being active in
(he presidential conventions of 1876 and
1880, when he was leader of the Tilden
forces. After serving as corporation
counsel of Albany; he was. in 1883,
elected a justice of the supreme court
for a term of fourteen years. His elec-
tion to the court of appeals followed in
1886. His eloquent denunciation of the
Onondaga county election frauds won
for him the opposition of Gov. Hill, who
procured the disastrous nomination of
Maynard for chief justice of that court
to prevent Judge Peckham's nomination
for it. Judge Peckham's term would ex-
pire in 1900.

JUSTICE PECKHAM.
H. Peckham was nominated for the su-
preme court by President Cleveland and
vehemently and successfully opposed by
Senator Hill. The senator, however,
seems to have experienced a change of
heart, as he recently said in an inter-
view. "I hope the President will send
in the name of Rufus W. Peckham to be
associate justice of the supreme court.
New York ought to get the place, and I
think it will. In my judgment, there is
nothing in this talk about Carlisle's go-
ing on the supreme cou.-t bench. The
President knows that New York State
is entitled to it. and 1 believe that he
will select a New York man. Rufus \Y.
Peckham is my choice."
A ft Iff,OOO Gravel Walk.
The gorgeous tales of Oriental splen-
ilor tell of pathways strewn with gold
dust, to be trodden by the sacred feet
of royalty, and diamonds are the con-
ventional paving material for the prom-
enade of the princes in the fairy tales.
It has been left to a St. Louis business
man. writes a correspondent, to con-
struct a gravel walk, neither long nor
strikingly beautiful, that is a modern,
if comparatively humble, rival of these
glistening highways of fiction and
fable, for it represents ?l.r>,000 in hard
cash. The manager of a St. Louis cof-
fee company is the proud possessor of
this unique walk. It Is composed of
several tons of Brazilian pebbles, that
came to him in a business way during
the last few years. This firm are heavy
importers of Brazilian coffee. Before
lhe berries are ready to be roasted for
the market the sacks are opened and
the contents carefully examined for
twigs, leaves and other impurities, the
latter generally taking the shape of
small pebbles about the size of a coffee
berry. These came with such regular-
ity and in such quantities that long ago
the idea that they were accidentally
in the sacks was abandoned and the
ing into the depths he fancied lie saw ant
the child lying on a pile of mud. As I
there was very little water in the hole
he hastened to the police station, se-
cured ropes, and, together with Officer
Clegg, returned to make the rescue.
Clegg. being the lighter, was slowly
lowered to the bottom, the women and
children lending a willing band. The 1
hauling up process was a tedious, la- j
borious affair, but by main strength j ,
Clegg was finally landed on terra firma, 1 jljg one box of No-To-B;tc com-
mit with a look of disgust on his face j pietely cured him, and he gained seven

Anticipntion may be better than re-
alization. yet it is the unexpected
pleasures that bring the greatest de-
light.
