And Modssty win Not Prevent the Worlds Pair
From Asking For What They Want.
Senator Cullom does not want the
Worlds Fair at Chicagoto miss the OPP
p~ortunity to ecure the old Liberty
Bell for exhibition through too much
modesty. On the principle that what
is worth having is worth asking for,
the Illinois Senator not only believes
in asking for the bell, but wants Con
gress to do the asking.
Senator Hoar, who is strong in main
tanning the dignity Of the Senate, did
not want that body to begin to make
requests of this kind for fear it would
become like the boy in the story book
who got going and couldn't stop.
When the Senators car agree upon
some plan Of asking for the bell that
will not imperil American liberty OF
sacrifice the dignity Of the Senate be-
yond possible repair, the request viii
doubtless be made and quite as GER
tainly granted.
While the bell is in a particular
sense the property Of Philadelphia,
there is a general sense in which every
American citizen can be said to share
in the possession of this relic Of revo-
lutionary days, and every American
and ali the world beside should be
given d chance to see it if they want
to. And it is not beneath the dignity
of Congress to ask for il.

reply that trials OF the system in this

long been in vogue, have been entirely

1t seems to us that congress will find
the latter nest difficult to determine,

will be introduced under very favorable

that one-half of nearly 200 members OF

English and American Lawyers Contracted
A. Oakley Hall, formerly district attorney
and mayor of New York. and now an active
practitioner in that city. draws some inter-
estinQ comparisons between the English
and American bars. In a recent contribu-
ton to q legal periodical he shows how
greatly oircumlocution and Formally infect
the profession in England. increasing the
cost of legal proceedings and often en-
barrsssing both lawyers and clients. The
awkwardness of the English system of al
lowing the client to communicate with the
counsel conducting his case only through
the intermediary of a solicitor has often
been commented on. but Mr.. Hall goes fur
Their and considers the American advocate
not only as more fortunate in the system
which he adopts. but a. superior 10 the
English barristsr in eloquenco and
readiness. He says of the English
barfiste.: HE is a martyr to desorum.
He seems oppressed with a ceremonial
sense. He cannot run his fingers caress-
inRly through his hair. and at times he
talks az il feeling she weight of his Wig
upon his brain. Occasionally his gown
seems to have tho effect of q strait-jacket.
A sense of etiquette appears often to act as
q species of bearing or curb rein to his
movements. He is apt to show a realization
that he is an actor made up and that tho
Judge is like the actor or stage manager at
the wing. inc that the twelve form an au-
dience to be pleased rather than to be con.
WINGED. He w~restles with his rhetoric rs il
weighed Town and fettered with his ~instruc.
tions, and seems to feel that he is a mere
conduit or fountain rather than the source
OF q stream. All noted barristers and @.
ca seem in some particular to be sensible
that they are actors bred in the same school,
while in the United States scarcely two
luvyers exhibit similar pcculiarities,"

Sensible people sometimes make very odd
mistakes, which a little reflection would
have enabled them to avoid, while people
who are not sensible take very startling
views of things generally. At the Centen-
nial exhibition two country girls stood be-
fore a copy OF the Flemish artist Paul Pot
ter's great masterpiece, and n Of them
read from her catalogue, "The Young Bull.
after Potter"
"Yes.'' said the other. "there's the bull.
but where's Potter?"
Don't you SEQ him?" asked her compan-
ion. pointing to the figure Of the herds-
man, 'behind the tree?"
Two others we're admirinR a statuette Of

vague idea of Terra del Fuego.

A man, after gazing at q photograph OF

Two boatmen on the Ohio river were
