An Expert Opinion.

An old watchman, who used to keen
guard in the department of justice, from
long association with the legal lights
in the building believed he had imbibed
a fair share Of learning in the law, and
SO when one night telegram addressed
to the attorney general came after hours
he had no hesitancy III opening it and
reading it's message. 1t asked the cues
tlon, is "a man TO be held responsible
for a crime committed while under the
influence Of liquor" The watchman
pondered over this message for some
time, and, as he knew what the infu-
ence of liquor was, he sent the laconic
answer: mo indeed. (Signed) John
Jones, i'll charge of department of JUS
tice. - Of course there was an immedi-
ate attack on the attorney general for
such decision, and the matter came
to the cars OF the department. An inves-
tlgatlon was made and the watchman
suspended for three months. That did
not worry him, however. With ef-
frontery that simply dumfounded the
clerks, he came to the building every
pay day during that time of suspension
and drew his salary. Fields
