A Chief.Justice Edited.

The late Chief-Justice Bigelow. OF
Massachusetts, who was, in his way,
q little overbearing and assertive of his
dignity, was on one occasion brought
TO his bearings 10 way as effective as
1t was amusing. He was riding in Q
car which did not stop at Quincy.
where he resided. and as it was pass
ing by he pulled the rope and the train
was brought to sudden stop. The
conductor rushed into the car and de-
manded:
"Who rung that bell?"
II did," said the Chief-Justice.
"Why?"
"Because / wanted to get off,"
At which the railroad official in
dulged in some remarks which were not
complimentary and hardly respectful.
The Judge afterward complained to the
President of the road. who promised
to look into the matter. But he found
that although the conductor might
have used hot language the Chief
Justice was not without fault, and said
nothing about 1t. When they next
met, by chance, the latter demanded
of the President whether he had repri-
manded the conductor.
II spoke to him." was the reply.
