A Warning 10 Snorers.

While a case was on trial in the Pro-
bate Court the other day, man named
Patrick McGraham entered the room
and took seat among the spectators
near the door. The case was of rather
dull nature, and there was very little
matter of interest in the testimony of
the witness, so Patrick gradually sue
cumbed to the comfortable, soothing
influence of the atmosphere and fell
asleep. The Judge, lawyers and spec
moaning sound, followed by wheeling
like the escape of steam from locomo-
tive. This gradually deepened into an
awful sound, half snort and half roar,
which was kept up at regular intervals
and attracted general attention to the
seat occupied by McGraham, where he
sat with his head thrown back, snuffing
and snorting like an asthmatic steam
engine. He was ordered to desist, but
instead of obeying infused additional
energy into the performance. After
vigorous shaking by one of the officers,
he awoke and looked around in amaze
ment as Judge Miller sentenced him to
twenty-four hours in the county Jail for
contempt of court. He will probably
wear spring clothes-pin on his nose in
the future when he goes into court

prize, since on the choice of the fifth
judge will probably depend the whole
matter. He can hardly be chosen ex-
cept by lot, as each of the two Republi-
cans will insist on Republican for the
fifth place, and the Democrats for a
Democrat. This may be placing low
estimate on the character Of the judges,
but we have no. more confidence in
them agreeing on political question
than in senators OF representatives
The Inter-Ocean further maintains
that the plan is unworthy of its origin,
