Gle ride from this city to New York Was
begun. A message from General Miles

the kind that has been undertaken and
it has received the official sanction of the
commanding general of the army and
General Ordway. commanding the dis
trict national guard. According TO sched-
ule. the distance is 249T miles and %
hours is allowed in which to cover it.
This is the maximum of time. and allows
plenty of time ior improvement. The
schedule calls tor ten relays between the
two points. the shortest OF which will
be 16ls miles and the longest IS miles.
WILMINGTON, Del. Dec. 1.-The mil

A SOMNOLENT JUDGE.

He Had to Perambuiate to Keep Him
self Awake.
An old judge who has now termin-
ated his earthly as well as judicial ca
reer used to annoy counsel practicing
in his court by walking around while
business was being transacted. The
old man was a good lawyer, but
seemed to have an uncontrollable de-
sire to go to sleep, and he would per-
sist in walking around SO as to keep
awake. He would often walk up and
down the bench and along the corri-
doris for an hour at stretch, and
would decide a point with all the grav-
ity of a supreme court judge while
leaning on the rail dividing the attor-
neys' section from the public portion
of the courtroom. On one occasion a
strange attorney came over from an
other town to argue a case. He COM
menced to raise a point as to there be-
ing any cause of action. and. to his
surprise, before he had got through
the second sentence the judge got up
and commenced to perambuiate. Coun-
sci promptly sat down. assuming that
this was signal for ad iournment, and
the Judge with equal promptness over
ruled his point and told counsel for the
other side to proceed. The lawyer.
who had but just commenced his argu-
ment protested loudly and almost
wildly. and the coart was soon in an
uproar The visiting attorney refused
to address the court while it was wan
dering around, and as result he lost
his case. Other complications Of q
similar character arose from time to
time, and on one occasion new trial
was asked for on the ground that the
Judge refused to remain on the bench
while the case was being argued.-St
Louis Globe-Democrat
