JUDGE HARyEY'S JOKE.
Disappointed the Morbid Crowd That
Attends the Under Case.

Judge Harvey and the clerks and bailiffs
of Room 2, Superior Court, are a disguised
set of officials The court heard argument
in the Linder divorce suit yesterday morn
ing, but at noon the attorneys decided to
adjourn until Monday. The morbid crowd
of humanity that has swarned about the
court room all week were not aware of the
postponement, and at 2 o'clock. yesterday
four or i've hundred men waited for the
doors to open.
LET 'em in; I'll cure them,' said Judge
Harvey, and the bailiff threw open the
doors. A riotous rush followed this act,
during which the bailiff narrowly escaped
being run down and trampled. The curious,
motley crowd of men and boys plunged to-
ward the door as if rare goal awaited
doorway, struggled, and cursed and tried
to get through. Buttons were torn from
coats, hats were battered and trampled
upon, and the owners were ready to punch
each others heads. Judge Harvey watched
the disgraceful scramble of the masculine
herd, and was impressed with the faliacy
of the theory that credits women with all
the curiosity of the human race. The
crowd we'll seated. the court took a mali
cious delight in announcing that suit for
foreclosure would be heard, and that there
would be nothing further I'm the Under
case until Monday. The dry details of
financial litigation cleared the court room
directly. As the last man disappeared
Clerk Hugg was constrained to remark:
This melodrama of ours Is a winner. We
