DON'T ALL SPEAK AT ONCE
Our free silver friends denounce
Ihe "crime Of 1873" al the cause
Of the late financial panic, low
prices Of cotton and wheat aud
general Industrial and agricultural
depression. But, with their usual
consistency, they have absolutely
To- gotten to advise the people to
what cause is to be attributed the
gradual increase of wages and re-
turning wave Of prosperity which
is sweeping over the country. The
"crime,' whatever it may have
teen, has not been and is in no
immediate danger of being recti.
fed. Therefore, if they ale cor
rect in their premises, they lead
them to unsouud and illogical con
clusions. They must either recede
from the untenable position which
they have assumed or advise the
public as to the cause-ascribed
by them to the wrong source-fol
the unexpected favorable change
in the financial and general bust
ness interests Of the country. 1t
is not necessary for all to speak at
once. One at time will do. We
don't want to- be overwhelmed
with the same kind Of unsubstan-
tial and Elusive theories.

men cry they are apt TO be ashamed Oh
themselves and to get out of sight
When Mr.. Howe cries, he is anxious to
have the fact known. He is always par
ticularly DESTROYS that certain II men
shall understand all about it, and it is
undoubtedly true that manya case has
been won for Howe 81 Hummel by the
senior partners tears.
1t has been assumed by many that the
practice of Howe & Hummel was con
fined to divorce cases and the defense of
alleged criminals 1t is true that they
are prominent in these directions and
that they are seemingly always ready
for defense, - but one of their steadiest
sources of income consists of fees for
drawing theatrical contracts. While
they do not possess a monopoly of this
class of work in New York, they do
very large part of it, Whether they
really do make as much money as they
are believed to is question not easily
answered. Some lawyers say not; that
their earnings are not more than from
$15, 900 to $25, 900 year each and that
Brooke & O'Sullivan make even less.

Condolences OF CLIENTS.
A Noted English Precedent Which stamps
Them as InviOlable.

IN hANNAA '~~'NAAAb~
Them as InviOlable.
"Tbe matter of condolences between
counsel and client is one Of great inter
est and importance, " said well known
jurist and ex-judge the other day.
GAS to the duty of a lawyer on the
trial of q case where he has been in
formed by his client that he is guilty,
the best and most controlling example
is that of Charles James Phillips, the
eminent British barrister who in many
directions was rated in his time as sec
ond only to Lord Erskine. ~y
''He was defending Courvoisier, who
was indicted for the murder of Lord
Russell. During the trial, on the exam
ination of very important witness for
the people, the accused was much over
come, and in the intensity of his emo
ton communicated either to Mr.. Phil
lips or to his solicitor the fact that he
was guilty of the crime.
''Mr Phillips Immediately asked for
an adjournment of the case and for a
consultation with the judges The con-
sultation was granted, and Mr. Phillips
stated to the bench that the accused had
confessed his guilt and requested the
judges to point out to him his path of
duty. The judges, after elaboration,
stated that he would have a perfect
right to make such legal and logical de-
auctions from the evidence as he
thought tended to the exculpation of the
accused but it would be unprofessional
to state to the jury any personal belief
Of his innocence.
In his argument to the jury Mr..
Phillips, carried away by his emotions
and Imagination, did state to the jury
his own personal belief in the innocence
of his client, and this statement of his
occasioned much criticism afterward. >

EdisOn's Bet.

There is probably no Other country
where so much and so curious betting
takes place as in the United States. Es-
pecially is this the case at election time.
Wizard Edison, it is said, made his first
unusual experiment in electricity as the
result of a bet. He was telegraph OPP
orator and the lunches of the boys were
carried in tin cans, into which reaches
made their way, causing much kicking
at mealtime Various methods were
tried to get rid of them, and finally Edl-
son made a bet that he would suppress
them. The next day the dinner cans
were piled in heap, and the wizard
placed around them circle ct narrow
tin foil ribbon about an inch wide, and
about quarter of an inch away another
similar circle, and then he connected
both with the current The consequence
was that every roach in trying to get t.
the cans placed himself with his hind
legs on one pole Cor piece of foiD and
his fore legs on the other, thus complet-
ing the circuit, and rolling over dead
The bet was won, and the dead piled up

ORIGIN OF HoKEY PoKEY.
Leftover Ice Cream Bought at the
Hotels nd Frozen Again


1t is an sctItal fact that old ice cream
is bought up.by Italians and venders from
restaurants aud ice cream stands, frozen
second and third time and again offered
Tor sale, to be consumed by the uewsboys
and general public under the anuring title
OF hokey pokey.
Almost every night these yenders make
the rounds of all the hotels aud buy up
whatever has been left over from the day
previous This creap. has all melted more
OF less to its origiLal consistency, and if
1t is still frozen when they get it thers
is little left but fluid by the time it has
reached the italian quarter.
This melting process is the cause of all
the danger. Cream once having been
frozen aud again melted very readily turns
sour. In this stage it is poisonous Tha
vender OF hokey pokey cares little whether
or DOT the cream is sour. Quickly upon his
return to his quarters he freezes all this
mush aud packs it away for the uext DAYS
use.
The Few cases of poisoning that have
come to the public notice are 10 all prob
ability not the ouly ones that have oc.
Cured. for physicians say that mauy cases
OF poisoning have occurred in the districts
where the hokey pokey venders are than
could not be accounted for because of the
suddenness of DEATH
1t has been generally understood that cere
taiu establishments are putting out large
Quantities or hokey pokey aud supplying
the venders, but this is not so. The
Italians aud their families are the only
ones who manufacture and cater to the
customers.-New York herald
