The pathway of judicial officers in
Oklahoma is not strewn with roses.
Attorney Parker, of Oklahoma City.
who was in Topeka recently, tells a
correspondent Of the Pittsburgh Dis.
patch story Of judicial life In that
region that is anything but pleasant.
The experience OF q judicial party
which started from Oklahoma City to
hold court in the Pottawatomie coun-
try will serve to dispel any romantic
notions which the people may enter
tain about the delightful luxury at
tending the judges and court officials
in the territory. The judge, accom-
panied by bailif, . clerk and the
court stenographer, Miss Ada Blank,
and two prominent lawyers, left Ok
lahoma City, and after fifty-four
miles of hard riding reached Tecum-
sch at 1890 o'clock that night. The
''hotel' had one vacant room and the
only "annex" in that part of the coun-
try was the hayloft over small barn.
The room was turned over to the lady
member Of the party, with the assur-
ance of the dignified court that the
men had secured comfortable quar-
ters" in another building. With a
placid smile that indicated that "he
who hesitates is lost" the court led
the men in single file to the stable and
up the ladder to the haymow, where
all retired with their boots on. At
daylight next morning the Landlord, !"
after feeding the horses below, ut
tempted to locate his guests. Some of
them had crawled SO far under the
hay that he had to assist them out by
away some of the hay. The
court had covered his head with the
cape of his overcoat, but his long
growth of judicial whiskers was filed
with hayseed. The bailiff had stuffed
his mittens in his mouth to keep the
cold air from a new pair of sore teeth,
while one of the lawyers had to get
his underclothes to arrest the
galloping progress of badly demor-
allied beetle, which had crawled from
the hay into his hair, thence down his
back. Finally the party was all mus
tered at breakfast, at which the court
resumed its usual dignity. Afterward
the party resumed.its journey to Chand-
Ter. the next county seat, distance
of forty-three miles. !

A Hankow correspondent gives an
account of the discovery of a young
Samson at the militia examinations.
There were about nine hundred can
didates, of whom sixty-three gained
the degree of promoted men. They
are tried in archery, lifting, sword and
spear exercise, ETC.. also in writing.
The senior wrangler was young man.
only twenty-five years of age, from
Kinhua. His particular success was in
lifting. and his strength is estimated
at eight hundred catties (the cattle is
about one and one-haif pounds),
though, really they say it is only six
hundred catties. This is tested by
lifting a square stone of three hundred
catties weight rs high as the breast.
This man not only lifted it to that
height, but gave it a little toss up and
caught it as it came down.
The governor was astonished and
asked him to repeat the feat. The
young man supposing that he was sus-
pected Of having some secret help,
threw off his coat, exposing his bare
body, and repeated the feat to the en-
tire satisfaction Of the judges.
Though in archery and other practices
his skill was not conspicuous, he was
awarded the FIRST place ON the list 6f
successful candidates, and the gov
ernor did him the honor of asking who
had been his teacher and trimmer. He
replied that u was his father, who was
himself = military officer and bad
served at Ningpo and elsewhere.

siderable strength at this time. and IN
fact, the three first named held strong
throughout, and were the only active
stocks on the list that showed net
gain for the day. Sugar, after its early
rise. dropped to 9Sk, falhed 10 lVVis'
and closed at 99K. There was more dis
position TO sell the stock than for some
