At the conclusion Of the Judges remarks !
he proposed the health of Melville Weston
Fuller. Chief Justice of the Supreme Court
Of the United States. The guests arose to
their feet and some one proposed three
cheers for Mr.. Fuller. The cheers we're
given with combination roar Of jury argu,
ment.
Mr.. Fuller's voice was soft and tremulous
when he arose. His eyes were in sympathy
with his voice. Mr.. Fuller ran briefly over
his experience with the early Chicago bar,
When he mentioned the names of Lincoln
and Drummond the lawyers arose and
cheered until their Threats were scorched.
and Leonard SWEET. were also loudly ap-
plauded. He expressed his keen apprecia-
ton OF the honor conferred on him, which
he took as a recognition of Chicago and the
great West rather than a personal compH-
ment. When he took his seat the audience
again arose and gave him round OF cheers.
Judge Gresham spoke to the toast, .The

preme court andS SpncladiRk with an ex-
lectioHUf Chfef Magistrate of the highest
court In the land. The Judges speech was
very brief. for Judge Moran was on the pro-
gramme to help him wrestle with the same
subject.
Judge Moran's address dealt chiefly with
the lower courts and their duties. He
thought the people Of Illinois had peculir
cause to be proud of their judiciary. In all
the seventy years of its judicial system no
Judge had been impeached nor within fifty
years had there been 6 judicial scandal. In
this time great corporate relations had been
adjusted. and though many judges had been
elected in political contests the integrity of
the judiciary had never been questioned.
He compared the English courts with the
American tribunals. Many newspaper edit
ors liked the speedy trial Of criminal cases
In the English courts, but the speaker ques-
toned the efficiency of such trials. He got
q twist at the British lions tail by declaring
that while we were catching thief the En-
glish courts could convict an Irishman Of
loving his country and send him to prison.

-Grape juice is now pressed into
bottles, and then olive oil is poured in
at the top of each bottle. This effect
ually excludes the air. and none can
work down into the wine to ferment it.
At the same time any air that was in
the juice finds its way up through the
oil. The oil is sopped up with cotton
when the bottle is uncorked. The cot
ton absorbs It little by little. All that
is needed is little patience. This art
OF keeping unfermented wine was

years before Christ. But it was lost.

twenty odd of them. Beyond this we
reached the foot of the gorge leading
to the old city.
Here we found one of the Rajah's

eighty, which was to carry us over the
steep pass. His face was painted in
Oriental characters. We made our
obeisance. He soon came down on his

mounted the mass of meat. Then,

finally gave whistle, which told me
that he thought Chicago two hun
