CULBERSON'S PRACTICAL JOKE
How He Got the Best In a Lawsuit of q
Brother Congressman.

| How He Got the Best in a Lawsuit of q
Brother Congressman.
The story of the Alabama lawsuit
involving jack, in which Congressman
Tom Williams, of Alabama, and Judge
Culberson, Of Texas, appeared upon OPP
| posite sides, and the use the former
made of it in a campaign has been pub
1ished, but the sequel never was. Con-
| gresham Williams and Robert g. Inger-
soil resembled each other very closely,
the only point of very noticeable dis
similarity being slight scar upon
Col. Ingersoll's face. When ongress-
man Williams told the lawsuit story,
Judge Culberson concluded to get even.
Procuring two dozen Autographs Of
1ngersoll, used by him in his lecture
tours, the Judge cut off the name and
signed them in imitation of Williams
writing: VERY truly yours, Tom L.
Williams" These he sent to men in
different parts Of the Alabama district,
being careful! to leave out the most in
fiuential friends of Williams. In a
short time the scheme began to work.
Williams received letters asking for one
of his big pictures. These he answered
eraciously, saying that he had none.
Then would come back replies in the
most indignant style, telling him that
they had seen them. and if he wanted to
lie about it he could do without their
support. These letters Mr.. Williams
referred to his friend, Judge Culber-
son, who advised him to go home and
straighten it out. This the perplexed
member did, obtaining ten days leave
of absence. When he returned he said
to the judge:
81 found them there, framed and
hung up. They looked like me, and
there was my signature. Finally, l
noticed the scar on the face, and that
saved me. l got it fixed up, but had
to go to every county in the district"
Finally, it leaked out who had played
the joke, and compact was made that
Williams should never again mention
the lawsuit and Judge Cnlberson
should play no more jokes.-WasLing-

We advise the Republican papers to

them thus. because we are sure that

less than S26000.O00. This is no doubt,

A Poisonous Orchid,

Few departments of botany are more
Interesting than that in which are con-
sidered the various ways in which ma
ture provides for the protection of GER
tain plants. A singular defensive quail
ity has been discovered in a compara-
lively common orchid, one of the oldest
Of cultivated species. This plant has
decided poisonous properties. The poi
son is localized in the stems and leaves,
and those who are imprudent enough to
handle the orchid instantly find them
selves attacked by special cutaneOus
irritation, which resembles in some
me- sure that which appears In persons
who have handled poison ivy. The Of
fensive substance consists of an oily
matter secreted by the glanular hairs.
This matter Is found, as in the Chinese
primrose, deposited between the collss
lar wall and the cuticle of the terminal
cellule of the hair. 1t Is set free by thu
rupture of the cuticle. This poisonous
secretion seems to perform the function
of protecting the reproductive portion
of the plant, for the virulence of the pol
son and the quantity secreted increase
as the plant develops. and attain a max

was passed by the Iowa Legislature last
winter, and went into effect on July 4.

or their importation into the State. Nc
Gregor was arrested for importing cigar
rites and selling them In the original pack
ages, and an application for writ of
nabeas corpus was made to Judge San
BORN. The attorneys for the petitioner
rested their arguments on the decision OF
the Supreme Court of the United States
N the famous prohibition case that went
up from the same State some years ago.
utter the prohibition law was enacted
here. That decision is to the effect that
the Federal constitution, having delegated
o Congress the power to regulate COM
nerce between the several States, the
Legislature had no power TO prohibit the
Importation of liquors into the State, or
heir sale in the original packages by the
importer. Attorney General Remiey ar
fued that the Legislature had power to
