A JUDGMENT.
which Changed the onieIai Language Q.
the French Courts.

o
The young duke Of Brissac, son Of
the viscountess de Tredern by her
first husband, has just become en-
gagged TO Mile. de Crussol daughter Of
the well-known duchess dues and
sister Of that Duke Jacques who per-
ished couple Of years ago in Africa.
The duke OF Brissac is very popular
young officer Of the Twenty-tiith dra-
goons and bids fair to develop later on
in life as much flesh as that ancestor
of his who used TO be known as lie
gros Brissac."
1t is to this fat duke of Brissac, by
the by, that the French nation Is in
debted for having the pleading in law
courts as well as the judgments and
decisions delivered In French instead
OF in Latin, as had been the case until
his time. IL seems that the duke rode
all the way from Paris to Rouen just
in time to hear the judges there deliv-
ering judgment against him with
the Latin words ''Debotat dlctum.
At any rate these were the only words
he heard, says Paris letter
Furlously he returned 10 Paris, and
on arriving there complained to the
king Of the impertinence OF the Judges.
Why, what have they done 10 you,

Dreme court o
California tell il
to-day.
Early in 1890 Tom Jermyn, young
ster of %, left his home in New Jer-
sey and sought fortune in the far
West As many before him had done,
he worked from place to place, for
getting the maxim that rolling stone
gathers no moss, aud after having
tried half dozen states and terrific
ries he found himself, in the spring of
1891. in Los Angeles, friendless, home
less and all but penniless.
The situation was not a pleasant
one. The boom" of two or three
years before had left the town quiet,
and after a few weeks of searching he
came to the conclusion that his only
chance to escape starvation or the
penitentiary was to go into the min
ing districts, and therefore thither he
went
With varying success he found his
way from one to another of the camps
along the Sierras, until one day he
struck new one, far up the country
toward Deaths valley, named Last
Ditch, and there fell into companion
ship rand finally into partnership with
a man almost twice his age by the
name of John Selden, Quick Jim"
as he was better known in all the
mining region.
The friendship was strange one.
The boy, for he was but boy, was
not drinker nor thief, was willing
to do as he would be done by, and to
work Selden on the contrary, was
a hard drinker. loved gaming and
cheating of any and every sort, had
killed his man, yes, men, being known
as desperate when in liquor, and
was altogether a person to be avoided.
And yet the two seemed to have
mutual attraction, for their acquaint
ance, begun by chance, ripened, as
have said, into actual friendship and
for nearly two years they were
partners" in all business relations
and became much attached to each
other.
The fellowship was like to do Jer-
myn harm rather than to help Selden,
but such was not the case. The elder
man turned a sharp corner. became
interested in actual mining in the
legitimate way, drunk but little and
almost never got into any row. His
old companions viewed the change
with delight, for he had always been
considered dangerous, and the hope
was generally expressed that Jlm's
last love was going to reform and
make worthy man of him.
Matters were in this happy state
when the two became possessed of
mining claim near Dry Salt lake in
the Ell Paso district, which rapidly
developed into valuable one, and
from which they took considerable
quantity Of gold.
Day after day they worked as
neither of them had ever worked be-
fore, and night after night they es-
tinated their increasing wealth and
