Ii is related of the lale Judge Black
that in 1857, just aflef he was
appointed Attorney General of. the
Uniled States, lie was staying at the
As,or House in New York. Scores of
Leading politicians called upon him.
One day II small gray-haired man
arrived at the hoicl, and registered
himself as Judge j. Williams. iowa.
On. seeing the name of Judge Black on
the book, he wrote
"The Supreme Judge Of Iowa pre-.
sents his,compliments to the Attorney
General Of the United States"
He sent this up to Judge Black s
room. together with halfsheet of
paper on which he had written:
40 Jerry, dear Jerry, I've found you last,
And memory hardened with scenes of the
Returns 10 old Somersets mountains of snow,
hen you was but Jerry and WIS but joe "
In less than three minutes the great,
dignified Judge Black was coming
down the stairs, TWO steps at a time,
with the little bell-boy in close pur.
suit
Two old schoolmates. and law stu.
dents were together after separation
OF some thirty years. Two old men
embraced each other, and neither was

Origin of billiards

The game of billiards WAS invented
about the middle of the sixiet nth
century by a London wnbroker
named William Kew In wet weather
this pawnbroker was in the habit Of
taking down the three balls, aud vii h
the yard measure pushing them, bill.
lard fashion, from The counter into The
stalls in time The idea of board,
with side pockets, SUGGESTED itself. A
black letter manuscript says:
Master, William Kew did make
one board whereby game is played
With three balls; and all the Young
men we're greatly reereaied thereai
chiefly the young clergymen from ST.
Pawles; hence one of ye strokes was
named "A canon having been Ivy one
of We cleigymen invented, The game
is now known by the name of bill.
yard because William or Bill Kew
did first play with a yard measure.
The stick is now called kew or
'kue.'
1t is easy to comprehend how bill
yard" has been modernizcd into bill.
lard" and the Transformation of
kew" or "kue' into "cue" is
equally apparent
