A Street Car at Sea,

There is lawyer in Boston who is in
tho habit at times of addressing indi.
viAlual jurymen when inattentive or rest
less, and sometimes his argumentem ad
hominem is effective. Some time ago
he was trying a case against street
railway company, and there was an old
sailor on the jury who seemed to give
no heed to what either counsel said.
The lawyer made his most eloquent APP
pcals, but all in vain. Finally he stopped
in front of the sailor and said: "Mr.
Jnryman, I will tell you just how this
happened. The plaintiff was in COM
mand of the outward-bound open car,
and stood in her starboard channels.
Along came the inward-bound close car,
and just as their bows met she jumped
the track. sheercd to port, and knocked
the plaintiff off and ran over him." The
sailor was all attention after this version
of the affair, and joined in 5000 yer.
dict for the injured man.

In Sweden the discoveries were not
