DINNER ETIQUETTE.

From the Chicago Times.
"In Washington" says a woman
just returned from there, 81 heard a
story of one of the young eleganta of
the national capital. He is a firm
believer in the proper way Of doing
things, and in particular is an ex-
tremist in the proper observance Of
the dinner ceremony.
"'Why, he is reported to have said
lately, discussing the question, "If
my mother were to die suddenly at
the end of the fourth course / should
not consider that the meal could be
interrupted
But, what would you do?" he
was asked.
"'Do% he repeated, Il should say
to the butler: Remove Mrs. -
and serve the sorbet.'"
(which, it may be added, whether
knowingly or otherwise, is after the
story attributed to the elder Dumas.
Dining at his table me day was a
friend who obstinately wished a may
onaise for q salad that Dumas felt
should not be served. Just before
the moment arrived to offer the
course, his friend looked up, gave
a gasp, and slipped to the floor,
dead. Before Dumas allowed him
self to become excited over the ia
tality he took the precaution to turn
to his man with the order: Jean,
make q French dressing.'n

WALTER BESANIpS MAXIMS.

Walter Besant, the well known
novelist, gives the following maxims,
which are at once as cynical as they
are clever:
Out of 10 men nine are born to
work for the tenth. Resolve to b
the tenth.
Without trampling, the cleverest
cannot get rich.
Dives is eve an example, be-
cause nobody considers himself
really rich.
If you cannot become rich, remem-
Der the many miseries of the rich.
The consolation of those who fail
is to ~depreciate those who succeed.
The greatest things are done by
the greatest fools.
Wise men attempt anything.
When you lose a leg begin at once
to practice with a wooden one.
Mems motives are mercifully hid
den by their shirt front.
Observe moderation in all things
especially in virtues.
The best way to make a man hon
est is to make him ashamed of being
found out.
There may be pride even in con-
Tossing mistakes.
Everybody says that gentle birth
is an accident, and everybody treats
it as an achievement.
The most charming attribute Of
friendship is the right of candor.

q. Is. OLDHAM WRITES OF THE METH
obs OF PRACTICE IN THE STATES
HIGHEST COURT.
Written Specially for Thi, Paper.
1t is a fact not to be disputed that
a very large per CEN of intelligent
persons look upon our laws and our
courts of justice ~ things too mystic
rious for the public generally to
comprehend. 1t must be admitted
that III criminal laws and our corpo
ration laws are enough to mystify
any one. But of these latter subjects
more will be said. further along.
Practice in the supreme court of
Missouri is not near so hard to com.
prehend as in the circuit court. The
supreme court is composed of seven
judges to-wit: Francis NJ. Black,
presiding justice of division No. | and
chief justice of the entire court ;
James b. CAN'T, presiding justice of
division No. 2; Thos. a. Sherwood,
Theodore Brace, Shepard Barclay,
Geo. b. Mactarlane, Gavon ID. Bur
CESS. Division No. | is composed of
Judges Black, Brace, Barclay and
Macfarlane. This division hears
only civil casss. Judges CAN'T,
Sherwood and Burgess comprise
division No. .. All criminal cases go
to this division and it also has the
same jurisdiction in civil cases as
division No. /, but criminal cases
are given a priority over civil suits
and are usually the frat on the
docket.
When a case comes to the supreme
court, either on a direct appeal or a
writ of error, the clerk charges q
docket fee of $40 and this is the only
charge made unless writs are applied
for. Litigants cannot designate to
which division they desire their cases
referred only a criminal case goes
direct to division No. /. At the
close of each term the docket for the
next term is made up and the civil
cases are assigned as they come.
The attorneys on both sides of a ease
are notified by the clerk to which
division their eases have been as
signed, as well as the date of hear
ing. The attorneys are then ex-
pected to have their briefs prepared
and submitted when their cases are
called. A failure to appear by brief
or otherwise will result in a dismissal.
The court allows attorneys a reason =
able time to argue their cases, if they
so desire. After a u has been
properly submitted at one term, il
/ will be determined before the mex
term. There are two terms of court
each year. The October terms OPEN
In the month of October. Usually
there r about 400 cases on tn,
October docket and half of these ar,
heard in January. The April tern
Of court opens in the month desig

WOMEN ARE EQUAL TO THE TASK.


TO the Elltor OF The Tribune
Sir: The great question asked by the opponents
OF the present movement toward woman suffrage
seems to be- "Wiil the country be benefited by CIV
ing women the balotY by way Of answering this
question | would ask another, why is IL that the
benefit OF the country Is thought Of only when
women being consleredy' After the civil War
the benefit TO the country to be derived from the
votes OF the freedmen was not considered OF sum
Client Importance to long delay the amendment the
Federal Constitution giving them the right OF suf-
frage II would seem that no intelligent citizen
could deny that the women Of New York are fully as
capable OF casting intelligent vote as were the
colored men OF the South after century OF bondage
Another argument brought forward is that the
votes OF women would be greatly influenced by the
Church. Even were this true 4 seems 10 me that
the Influence OF the Church would be as likely to
be on the side OF right as Is the influence OF Tam
many Hall
Again. they say that the home would suffer were
the ballot given 10 women. This same argument
has been made great many times in the past
when the question OF the higher education for
has been under discussion and IL has al.
ready been proved false to the satisfaction OF most
people. In all probability It would be proved false
