Judicial Ignorance.

In a cause called for trial last week before

continuance was asked for Upon the ground Of
the absence of a witness who resided ont The
County. Judge Melvin promptly rulcls that
the absence Of the witness was no CAUSE Of con-
tinuance, as the law provided that wien wit
nesscs resided outside Of the County depo-
sitions should be taken. This was evidently
new law to Judge Hail. He did not know
that the Code made such provision and he
was evidently dumblounded. lie, however.
