Justice Miller.

The death of Justice Miller will recall
to those who witnessed it one remark
able scene. 1t was the installation of
Chief Justice Fuller at the beginning Of
the October term of the United States
supreme court in 1888.
Justice Samuel F. Miller was the Sc
nior justice of the court. As such 1t
was his duty to welcome the new chief
justice and extend to him his hand.
Miller stood beside Chief Justice Fuller
n the judges took their respective
places. Mr.. Fuller was small, delicate
and slight as q woman, making with
his snow white hair and long. flowing
white mustache u striking appearance.
Justice Miller was over six feet in
height and massive framed in proper
ton, like the big Kentuckian he was.
He lowered above Nj. Fuller like a
giant, the proportions of each appearing
more pronounced by the contrast
Justice Miller was regarded by many
lawyers in both political parties as the
sblest expounder of constitutional law
in his time. His mind was admirably
fitted to his magnificent physique. For
twenty-eight years he has endured the
cramped quarters and bad moral and
physical air Of the United States court
room at Washington without weaken
ing. In 1856 he was old enough to re-
tire under the law permitting chief JUS
tees to resign at the age of 20, with
honors and their full salaries continued
the rest of their lives. But Justice Miller
showed not a trace of either physical or
mental weakening at the age of 20, and
30 continued on at his duties, dying. as
all workers wish to die, in harness.

Railway engine building has been
brought to so nice a point in Great
Britain that there are on the London
and Northwestern railroad 1000 engines
that will take the same boiler. A change
Of eighteen bolts will transfer a boiler
from one engine to another. What will
astonish Americans still more is the as
sertion of the chief engineer of this road
that he believes he could run an engine
around the world without losing a pin
Or getting a hot box. That engineer
ought to come to America and try his
hand on some Of the trains that convey
excursion parties from the west to Mag
ara Falls.

The funeral of Mrs. Booth. called the
Mother of the Salvation Army, attended
. it was by 10000 people moving as one
mar TO the least sign given by their
commander, shows the remarkable dis
cipline attained by the followers of that
army. The Salvation Army is assuming
the proportions of n of the old cru
sades, In its way it is almost as remark
able as they were. Extending around the
world from India to western America,
as its ranks do, it begins TO have an in
fuence that none reamedi it could WELD.
It seems to have money and power at its
call. 1t does not yet command respect,
but it commands attention.

4 Notable

Significant above a mere ordinary
passing event was the dinner given to
Roger A. Pryor by John Russell Young
on the occasion Of Pryor's appointment
to a judgeship in New York. Ii was a
remarkable banquet because there, in
the city where he was now honored.
Pryor had once been a prisoner Of war,
held for being a Confederate general
and fighting against his country. Val
iant old Gen. Sherman, indeed, per.
sisted at this very banquet in calling
Pryor 30 his teeth a rebel" thus stig.
matizing also the others who thought
his way thirty years ago, though by
common consent the word has been
dropped from polite society. Moreover,
Pryor, johnny" Wise, and Others took
the generals calling them names very
good naturally.
Most striking, however, was the great
variety of thinkers and doors whom the
dinner brought together. Hardly in q
century are men so differing from one
another brought harmoniously together,
or indeed brought together at all.
The New York World speaks Of the
gathering as follows:
There werr only thirty eight men gathered
about the board, and yet they represented the
most eminent I'm nearly every walk OF American
Me; hut the gathering was most remarkable 10

AWAITING THE VERDICT.

The jury Out in the Case of Laura Meyer,
Charged With the Murder of Henry
Ransome---A Night Session of the Court
The trial of Laura Meyer Tor the killing
Of Henry Ransome was continued yester-
day. Thomas NJ. Marshall, Jr., opened for
the defense and claimed that the shooting
was accidental. He said that the killing
occurred while the two were quarrellDg.
Ransone had struck and kicked her, and
she pointed the pistol at him, not think
ing it would go off, when it was discharged.
The prisoner was the first placed on the
stand. She said that Ransome had owed
her S4S, aad she went to collect it. When
she threatened to sue him he struck her.
She drew the revolver, which was at half
cock. and pointed it at him to scare him,
when it went off. Several witnesses were
called to show the good character of the
prisoner.
At the close of the testimony W. ]. Bren-
nan addressed the jury for the defense. BE
was followed by T. Nj. Marshall, Jr. They
contended that the boy who said he saw the
shooting was mistaken, as he could not have
seen it from his position. They held that
the verdict should not be higher than man
slaughter.
DIstric: Attorney Johnston commenced
his address, asking for verdict of murder
in the first degree. At 6 o'clock the court
took recess Tor supper, and after supper
District Attorney Johnston continued his
address. He detailed her flight and the
hiding of the revolver and the testimony of
the boy who witnessed the crime.
Judge Magee charged the jury, reviewing
the law and touching On the evidence, the
jury retired and court adjourned.
