J. L. Fatout, the genial building contractor, of Indianapolis, who is now building the new school house ih Rensselaer, is a man of a pretty varied experience. He made two trips to California, at an early day, the first in ’52 going by the Isthmus route, from New York, goingin steerage in aship loaded to the guards with passengers. He walked across the Isthmus. The Panama railroad vzaS'-TEenjust being built, apd it was a common saying in those daysjthat every cross-tie marked the grave of a workman,so pestilential was the country. On the way up the coast the yellow fever got loose in the ship and carried off the goldhunters, at the rate of as high as 15 a day.. In experiences were some of them exciting to say

the least. He was once “held up’ ’by a “road-agent” and once in a shipwreck, on the Pacific coast, near the Golden Gate. The ship ran ashore in dense fog and luckily lit on a sand beach, instead of one of the rock bound shores which are the general rule on that coast. Among others that he worked for in California was General John Bidwell, the old and very wealthy pioneer whom the Prohibitionists nominated for president last week. Bidwell offered him $2,000 a year and expenses, but like most young fellows on “The Coast” in those days, he did not like to stay too long by one job. His worst experience, however, was just after the war, when he was blown up in a steamboat on the Ohio river, and damped in his night clothes intp the freezing water where ice was floating. He managed to |et upon one of the wheel-houses of the vessel, and was taken off by another boat, just before the wheel-house followed the rest of the ship to tlie bottom of the river. He and about 18 or 20 others were all that escaped; a hundred or more being lost. v Try Dullaia* r M‘* C*>;.u*n cent Cough Cure at Long & Ce.“
