TEARS WON THE CASE.
They Were wonan's, but the Lawyer
Won Wife

1t is strange story to come from the
court room. One o, the ex-judges in At
anta tells the story in the Atlanta Jour
nal. The real names Of the parties are
not given, for the hero and heroine
are living in Atlanta to-day, surround
ed by many interesting and bright chill
dren.
Some years ago a very important case
was being tried In the supreme court. The
title to some valuable property was being
tested. and many thousand dollars were
involved One of the lawyers engaged in
the case was middle-aged mana bach
elor-who was regarded rs one of the best
attorneys at the bar. Tae case had pro-
gressed up to a certain point where the
bachelor Iawyer-we will call HIM Mr..
Jones-felt certain that he had the case
won. Even his opponents showed that
their case was weakening. But there
was one more witness 10 lie examined.
Upon this witness testimony it was ex
pected TO turn the tide and change
the complexion of the case. After Il
few moments of conference the opponents
of Mr.. Jones called to the sheriff.
LET Miss come in.
A little later there was the rustling of a
woman's skirts, and the witness took the
stand.
There sat the loveliest vision of sweet,
pure womarhood his eyes had ever beheld.
Even the Judge, he says so himself, had to
forget the case for few moments as he
gazed at the beautiful woman.
The examination went on. In q low
voice, as sweet as enchanting music to Mr..
Jones, the lady witness gave her testi-
mopy What she said helped Mr. Jones
op oonent wonderfully; but a little shrewd
questioning wou!d have upset IT. Mr.
Jones, as force of habit, thought OF this
as he sat there daZed.
The witness Is with you.
Mr.. Jones heard the words. AS he lis
tened at the direct examination he had
become angry because this beautiful wit
ness was not his instead Of belonging TO
the opposite side. But he must do his
duty with his client. Besides, SO much
devolved on the case. He would turn his
eyes away and ask the necessary questions.
He would. He rises to mis- feet and In
spite of himself his eyes meet the beauti-
full blue eyes Tor the first time, aud--there
were tears in them. She was flighten-
ed.
"You may come down"
Mr.. Jones spoke the words. He made a
fine speech when 1t came time to make his
argument And he lost the case.
IF it hadn't been for that lady wit
ness, said the Judge, ''or # Mr.. Jones
had not failed TO cross-questlon her, he
might have won the case. That was my
opinion at IN" time
And the sequeI?' be was asked.
"Oh, ii was a case Of love at first sight,
on the part of Mr.. Jones He lost no
time in making the lady's acquaintance
and she married him. | am told that
there never was couple married In At
lanta that loved each other more devot'
edIy."

Facts About the Little Fish that Is Used for
Bait

Many persons have noticed the remark
able changes which often occur in the life
or ponds and Streams. In some cases
these are readily explained by the influence
or settlement, with its necessities and
caprlces, and their demands upon water
courses and reservoirs.
But again there Is an element of mys.
terry about some of the transformations
during generation. As an illustration.
we may refer to recent conversation
with a correspondent. Mr.. s. f. Denton.
Near this gentleman home at WeIles-
ley, Mass, there is small sink hole
about 100 feet in diameter. known as
Schoolhouse pond. During Mr.. Denton's
boyhood this was full of catfish or horn
pouts and contained no other fish.
About eight or ten years ago a fishing
party, on their return from trip, had a
pail of bait minnows left over. One of
them said: Boys, it's too bad to throw
these minnows away; let's put them in
Schoo!house pond
Into the pond they went, and TODAY the
water is filled with them; they can be
caught In enormous numbers and are lust
the size for bait; but not a single horn
pout nor any other fish, EXCEPT the mlnnoS,
Is to be found there.
water plants are plentiful and frogs
too, but the minnow fills the category of
fishes and supplies the neighborhood with
bait These little fishes resemble the shad
in shape.
The same fish abounds in Wapan lake,
near Wellesley, and keeps the bass and
pickerel so well supplied that it is difticuN
to catch them with five minnows.
AS an illustration of their abundance
MIR. Denton remarked that on one occa-
sion, when he and his friends had exhaust.
ed their supply of bait they took all the
captured tish lying in the bottom of the
boat, turned them head downward, shook
them and obtained minnows enough in
TINS way to continue fishing hal the
afternoon
