Atlanta Constitution: "Did you ever

Georgia politician yesterday as he

Nobody had observed ,;nem.
SWELL, the Kentuckian says, as he
lifts the straight whisky to his lips:
Hers ut you, my boy!' and his COM

pours out his liquor and says, care

and the other fellow says Same here
and they drink.
1.-THE Georgian stands and talks a
moment before taking up the bottle,
and talks all the time, scarcely noticing
his action as he pours out the rye and
calls for 'pollinaris. Then he stands
and talks a moment longer, for Geor-
gians, you know, are never in a hurry.

"'Weil, hero goes, Chap' The other
fellow replies: Let 'cr CO. and she

wit: Send it south, send it south, and

The old lad lived a few miles out of tho
city and, incidental to the case which I
am about to relate, he was n hard
drinker. Pat had a COW to sell and
started for the city, He took his time
about it and spent a day or two at q
friends house in the suburbs.
Manufactured tho Evidence.
"For two or three days he did little
else but drink whisky and finally. when
ready to start, struck off into town,
leading his cow with a rope. He fol-
lowed a street on which electric cars
ran. To make the story short, the cars
ran into the old man, knocking him
down and using him up. He was taken
to the city hospital and in a few days
died and was buried.
"The widow turned her claim over
to a really capable firm of lawyers and
they brought suit against the street,
car company for $1,000, the limit for a
death in the state in which the accident
occurred and also in Illinois. The case
was finally brought to trial and the
witnesses for the defense herded in
Lawyer jim McSlattery's office. Law
yer Jim prides himself on being a pref
ty smooth article and able to con,
and Jolly along anybody introduced
to his attention. The witnesses for
the railroad company were, therefore,
nicely taken care OF in this LAWYERS
office.
"Especially was this SO in the case of
Green Chambers, Il colorcd man, whose
memory was Il littl. shaky at first, but
was made air-tight after Lawyer Me-
Slattery had patted him on the back
and remarked, with his best smile,
Green, Old fellow. we won't bother
paying yon your witness fees until the
case is over. You are the most in
%telligent witness we have and besides
we need you :& the office unlii you arc
called to testify 50 that we cat CON
suit you about important points in the
case.'
"Poor Green Chambers head was
swelled and you may be sure he made
a good witness. When the case was
over he got his check. Thus it was that
the several witnesses for the defense
were patted on the back and 'iollied'
by the big, fat. good-natured Mr.. Me.
Slattery. 1t would take a long time
to tell exactly the name in which
the hospital superintendent, the doc.

how it came to pass that three wit

did not see the accident, but who swore
that thsysdid and that the old man was
himself to blame. Two of the three
were Gerina., and, pretending that
they could net speak any English, they
gave their testimony through an inter-
prefer. This was done to hoalwipk
