THE SUPREME conRr Room


, The justices listen closely, though at times
they appear 10 be doing something else
They often ask questions of young memi el's
of the bar and muddle them up in doing so.
Ex-Justice David Davis in giving advice to
young lawyer friend of niue, referred to
the judges as ''old duffe.s in togas, and told
him if any of them as-.ed him questions in
the middle of an argument to reply: @Your
honor, win answer that by AMI by" and he
need not bother whether he answered it AT
all
The most noted lawyers of the country
appear before this court Senator Edmunds
drops in occasionally, and understand that
he takes out many times as much as his sena-
torial salary IN supreme court fees. Ben
Butler is here often, and Roscoe Conkling
appears almost as regularly as the months
go round Joseph E. Mcdonald was speaking
to the court when l was in it to-day, and
saw William Nj. Evarts sitting on his spine,
with his chin drawn down into his chest
listening to the argument.
The prettieSt things about the court ara its
twopage boy5 One of these is black-haired
black-eyesl little fellow, and the otlle,- is a
beautiful boy of perhaps 10, with curly
blonde hair which hangs down upon his
shoulders, blue eyes and face which is as
sweet as those of Raphaers cherubS He is
noted by visitors as he runs about among
the judges doing their errands, and the con-
trast of his beautiful youth and their old
age is very striking.
Just across the hall from the supreme
court room is the clerks office Here all of
the books of the court are kept, and, like the
court and robing room, it is filed with old
furniture. Its book cases look as though

Left by the Drought,

To the People OF Texa, ana the Public Ger
orally
We, the duly appointed executive com
mlttee OF Coleman county, Tex, selected
and authorized by the citizens thereof, in
mass.meetlng assembled, TO consider and
devise means for the relief Of the people
Ia said county, beg leave to make the
following statement to the public large,
to-wit:
That 10 consequence of the long pro-
tracted drought that has prevailed in said
county for more than year there has
been au absolute failure OF crops; that
the farmers In this county unable by
means at their command 10 procure seed
wheat, require donation of at least 1000
bushels TO enable them 10 SOW the neces-
sary area for the ensuing year; that we
have In this county 500 families em-
braclng $50 persons that need immediate
assistance In the way OF provisions and
are unable to procure il by any means or
eNertions of their own; that our people
generally have suffered and are still so
suffering from the consequence Of the
drought, that they are unable or indis-
posed TO meet the aforesaid necessities
and seem taxed 10 their full ability TO
narrow the necessities of our people
down to the foresaid amount:
Therefore, we feel impelied TO appeal
to the public az large to aid our county
In the amount Of 1000 bushels OF seed
wheat and provisions for 800 families now
In want, and hope that generous public
will respond to the demand liberally, for
our people have at all times literally
shared the calamity of every community,
since we have been a county, whenever
the necessity was made known to us.
All donations, either OF money, pro-
visions or grain, are requested to be sent
to A. Petty, treasurer OF Coleman county,
Coleman, Texas.

Hon. Charles b. l. IRE has received word
that Supervising Architect Of the Trea
sury Bell had recommended 10 the TreA
sury Department the site ct the south.
west corner OF Ninth and Shipley
s'rests for the new Wilmington post
office.
This is the site offered by Victor Du-
Point, Esq, and las u frontage Of l3l
feet on 5lipley street and l79 feet on
Ninth street, extending hack 10 Orange
street. The assessed value OF the prop
erty Is less than $50 900, and the price
asked Ia $4,000 1t Is not likely, how
ever, that any price will be agreed
upon without the site having been first
condemned by commissioners.
The announcemt MT OF the selection OF
this site Is received with general dissat-
isfaction, and there Is considerable talk
OF calling an indignation meeting tc
protest against the election.
