The Massachusetts lawyers find ample


scope FOR the exercise OF their ingenuity In try
ing to aid their cllents to evade the provisions
of the Liquor law. Some very curious points
have bccn made In cases Of this character. In
the supreme Court In Boston, the other day, tho
case came up - tSo men who were taken out Of
the House of Correction about eleven months
ago on writ Of error. The Judge required the
presence Il the men in court, but their counsel
did not seem to think that necessary, and finally
tatly told lis Honor, In effect, that they were
beyond the reach of the Court, since all that thc
Count had power 20 DO was to affirm or reverse
the Judgment of tic Court below, and there II
must stop. The incn were scntcnccd for three
months. They had served two days. They did
not escape They were lot out by the Court.
The time Of their sentence had expired, and the
Court had no power To pass new sentence, the
other one being right. ihc Judge gently inquired
Of the counsel whether. having had power to
stay sentence, the Court could not yacate its
own order, and let the sentence 90 on? To this
the counsel promptly responded; " Not without
performing n miracle. The three months for
which the men were sentenced are gone. They
are run out. They are passed forever. You
cannot make them run on again" This struck
the Judge rs Point requiring examination, and
lie reserved his decision.
