session OF he Supreme Court at Pittsheld,
Mass, was relieved by an incident, one day
last week, that drew a little smile. A leading
member Of the bar, rather noted for his STRAIT

favorite tactics; having wound her up to the

ness :" sharp and short. With an air of Offend
ed dignity, the attorney turned to Chief Justice
Brigham, who remarked, with Q smile, 81 think
the witness Is about right in that, is she not?"
Which reminds the older members Of the bar of
q similar misadventure that = still more distin-
gushed member Of the Berkshire bar once met
At the hands OF Chief Justice Shaw. ..where
did you get the money With which you made the
purchase spoken of?'' asked the Learned
brother" OF witness under the tortures OF cross
examination. "None Of your (gentle expletive)
business" hundred the victim. SNOW, may it
please you, are the counsel to be insulted in this
manner" appealed the lawyer. Witness"
said the Chief Justice" compassiouately, edo

sir, don't," "well, I wouldn't II we're i'm

bench was audibly echoed.
