President Lincoln regarded this as a
necessity for prompt action. and upon
his recommendation Congress Immediately
legislated the old circuit court out of ex-
istence, and passed an act creating the

In The same court room took place the

RepreSentS Notable Names,

When the formation of Miss Georgia Cay
vans company was under discussion some
time ago il was noted that she and her man.
agcr showed ii disposition to encourage
youthful aspirants to histrUnic fame.
il must not be understood, however, that
IL was Miss Cayvan's idea to further unduly
transfer from the amateur to the profess
sional ranks. on the contrary, every mem-
ber of her company is fuli-fledged profess
sional, and at least three of the younger
members of the organization, while young
in experience, perhaps, rejoice in pedigrees
that would seem to fully justify their selec-
tion.
one of these is young English girl, Miss
Mary Jerrold, who is the great grand
daughter of that celebrated English wit,
Douglas Jerrold. When the company was
about to open in New York there was shown
commendabIe lack Of disposition to make
capital of this young lady's pedigree.
In fact, nothing was said other whatever,
further than that her name was put on the
brogram with the others. Indeed, only one

WHERE THE COURT WAsoRGANIZED.

The scene of the organization Of The Dis

criminal court room occupied by Judge
Cole. This court room has remarkable
record for famous trials. II was here that
Daniel f. Sickles, IL member OF Congress
from New York. was tried for sne kill
ing Of Phillip Barton Key, ex-pistrlct
attorney of this city. Sickles lived in the
fashionable quarter facing on Lafayette
Square. He had married a pretty New York
music teacher and was very jealous of
Keys attentions To her.
He watched them both and one day when
he believed he detected Key in signalling
with handkerchief To his wife he shot
aud killed Key. THIS all happened before

were piled up in confusion and nothing was
in its proper place.
Lawyers did not file their suits in those
days and there was no such thing as
safe wherein to keep from public gaze
such an unusual thing as suit for divorce.
In fact, there is not one divorce suit on
record for three years after the organiZa-
ton of the court.
During the time Of the circuit court two
great boxes, located in the corridor, just
outside where is now the fnarShaPs office,
received all papers in suits. The attorney
when he filed suit merely entered the
hall and threw his bill into one of the
boxes which at all times was well filled
with papers. This caused much confusion
and many petitions and documents were
lost.
When 1t was determined to reorganize
the Judiciary of the District, President
Lincoln, as soon as practicable, tele-
graphed his friend, Judge Cartier, to
take charge of the new Jurisdiction as

COW MOURNING FOR HER CALF.

During q recent sojourn of four
years IN Scotland, being frequently
invited by Jeanne, the dairymaid, to
come to the stable at milking time,
writes Lucy F. Fawcett, 1 became
we'll acquainted with Primrose, But
tercup and Daisy, and on one occasion
1 noticed very young calfin a ''loose
box" at the end of the stable, and re-
marked to jeanne that was surprised
to see her milking the COW when the
calf was SO young; that at home, in
America, we always let the calf have
all the milk for week or more, and
then fed it with skinned milk,
warmed, etc. But Jeanie smiled and
said: 1--WE never let them draw the
milk at all in Scotland. AS soon as
the calf is born it is put in the loose
box, with plenty of hay or straw bed
ding, and fed with all of its mother
milk, while warm from the COW. ,"
This is kept up for some time and then
the calf is fed with skinned milk,
warmed and thickened with oatmeal
or other ground food.
And when the time comes to take
away the calf, there is no distress on
the part of either COW or calf by means
of this simple and excellent plan. -

been made by leading banking house,

the privilege of running canal boa is on
the Erie canal by electric traction.
The exclusive franchise for electric
traction on the canal belongs to the
Cataract General Electric company,
one of the branches of the great
Niagara Falls Power company. Several
months ago experiments were made at
Tonawanda, with system of towing
canal boats by small motor running
on a cable. The motor ran success

WHEN OATS SHOULD BE sowS.

o It's need as long growing season as
possible, being best adapted to cool
climate. This grain succeeds to per-
lection in such countries as Ireland,
Scotland and Norway, and on this con-
tinent, In Nova Scotia, where the at
mosphere is always damp and cool.
As the latitude decreases to the South
the grain is light and chafy. But
much may be done by early sowing
and by good preparation of the soil to
hasten termination and get ahead OF
the warm weather of the summer.
Thus it is best to prepare the land in
the fall and manure it through the
winter, so that the seed may be sown
as early as possible in the spring and
well covered that the plant may get
we'll rooted at the start. If this is
done it will not be injured by the
light late frosts. OF course, the best
seed possible to be got should be pro
cured. Not less than two bushels, or
two and half, of seed to the acre
should be sown. 1t is quite possible
to make a successful seeding of clover
and grass with this crop if the seed is
lightly narrowed in with slipping
tooth harrow as soon as the oat sowing
has been finished. New York Times.
