The Young Lawyers First Case.

The young lawyer conducting his
deepest commiseration. Take him. for
instance, in the Criminal Court, before
which he has a case. While the Pros
ecntlng Attorney is tying the first wit
ness into bow-knots and untying him
again, the amateur sits listening, but
endeavoring to look as unconcerned as
marble statue in a thunderstorm.
He throws in timid objections every
time he thinks he sees hole, and as
each one is overruled by the Court he
puts on stern look, as much as to say:
'I'll knock the wind out of that in the
Supreme Court" When the prose-
cutor. usually an old, able attorney,
dryly says, Take the Witness the
youthful aspirant trembles a little, and
endeavors to swallow something that is
sticking in his throat. He feels that
every eye in the room is upon him and
that they are as hot as stove-lids. He
fires few questions at the witness, and
warns as he proceeds, until he is
brought up standing by: ''Oh! your
honor, we object to such irrelevant
questions followed by a few scathing
remarks from the prosecutor. The
Court sustains the objection, and adj
vises the young lawyer to keep within
bounds. which sets him to wondering
where in thunder the bounds are OBJ
lection follows objection, and each one
is promptly sustained. He wonders
why it is that free and independent
people will tolerate such one sided
justice. He lunges ahead blindly now,
until he becomes so confused that he
does not know whether he is practic
ing attorney with a gilt sign, or fly
wheel on steam wood saw. Finally
he runs out OF questions, and, with a
sigh of relief, or something. tells the
witness '.Thats all" So he grinds
through, and at last the prosecutor
rises and proceeds to address the jury
in a mastery style. AS he proceeds he
picks up the evidence adduced by the
defense into particles fine enough to be
incorporated into Goldfish balls. The
youthful Blackstone wrestler begins to
feel uneasy as his mind reverts to the
fact that in a few moments he must de-
liver his maiden speech. He wishes
the prosecutor would hold his grip and
keep it until time to adjourn court, feel
ing satisfied that he could make SPLEEN
did speech the next day, after a nights
fighting on the evidence. He tries to
remember what the witness sWore to,
but. cannot recall, the fevidence to
save his life. The prosecutor f.
