A NEAT REPLY.-One of the
anecdotes told of Benjamin Frank
Inns yoa:h is in connection with
his visit to London when 10 years
old. He was in search of work,
and, having learned the printers
trade, went straight to printing
office and made known his errand.
The foreman was rather supercili-
Gus and said "Ah, lad from
America seeking employment as a
printer Well, do you really Gnder-
stand the art of printing? Can
you set type ?" Young Franklin
stepped to one of the cases and in
a brief space set up these words
from the first chapter of st. Johns
Gospel: "Can any good thing
come out of Nazareth! Philip
saith to him : Come and see. /"
The text conveyed such q delicate
rebuke and the work was done so
quickly and accurately, that a po-
sition was granted him ut once.

gins said 4. II. Harper of Denver
at Hurst's last night. Il heard a
young lawyer make his maiden
speech. 1t was in defense of a fell
low who was about half-witted, ar
rested on the charge of stealing a
hog, the young attorney having been
appointed by the Court. His de-
fense was that his client was an
idiot, and unable to distinguish be-
tween right and wrong. lie closed
a flowing speech with peroration
like this:
Gentlemen of the jury, look at
my client. That low, receding fore
head, those lustreless eyes, portend
that he was deprived by nature of the
power to distinguish right from
wrong, ignorant of the distinction
which exists between his own pro-
perty and that of others. To him,
as to the two-year-old child, what
ever he wants and can reach belongs
to him; he knows neither why it
does, nor why it does not. But,
gentlemen of the jury, such are the
institutions of this our free and
glorious country that my client,
idiot though he is, stands for trial

culprit got the full limit of the law ,
