aud sorrow there Was laughter and JOY.
The place on the wall. where formerly
were spots made BY the heads of sleepy
iurors. were eliminated and in place
OF sleepy jurors eyes, were laughing
eyes of the fair members of the club.
Even the voice of the judge, with is
stereotyped IS So or" nad gwen way
to the music of Porter's orchestra.
Around the wallis were daintily draped
fiags, while from tue ceiling hung sev-
eral Japanese parasois. relics of bygone
lantern psrades. A bicycle suspended
from the ceiling acted as an object TO
illustrate stories, told during the inter
mission, which were prefaccd with
"Tnat day John and | went around
Plainfield i'm seventy minutes" or
something that sounded Ike 1t.
During the intermission on the pro-
gram. delicious light refreshments were
served and ali voted the opening party
Of the club IN re new quarters, an un-

Judge Gray prefers riding to walking and
carriage to a street car. When he first
held court at Boston he asked the United
States marshal to pro gide him with car
riage to transport him from his hotel to the
court and back to the hotel at the end of
the days session. The marshal was com
mendably prompt and cheerful in comply
ing with the wishes of the distinguished
jurist. From Boston Judge Gray went to
Providence to hold court He asked the
United States marshal there to provide
him with a carriage to carry him back
and forth. The marshal said he could
not do so without paying for the vehicle
out of his own pocket.
"Why, how's that?" exclaimed the as
tonished iurist.
The department would not allow the
account and I'd have to pay rit," ex-
planned the marshal.
But the marshal at Boston furnished
me with carriage and had no trouble
with his account" expostulated Judge
Gray.

the Providence marshal. Il know if I

carriage, " and he paid for it himself, thus

cerned.

his charge for a carriage for Judge Gray's
use between the hotel and the court room
allowed by the department.
