Warm Words In Court.
There was a war of words between two
lawyers In the Eighth District Court this
morning which proved quite exciting and
interesting to the spectators. Mr.. Bren-
nan was on one side and Mr.. Farnell
on the other. The latter made one or two
pointed remarks which Mr.. Brennan
didn't like and he exclaimed: "If you're
talking TO the court, that's one thing !;
but IL you mean me, come outside"
Farnell retorted; "1f you want look at
my countenance III 60 outside" and
then Mr.. Brennan said he didn't want to
spoil II. Just here Judge Johnson put
his foot down and said very emphatically
that such talk must stop. And IL did.
