MEMBERS OF THE CITY BAR ASSOCIATION PLAN
MING 4 RECEPTION FOR THE CHIEF JUSTICE
IN THEIR NEW CLUBHOUSE
Leading members Of the Association Of the Bar OF
the City Of New-Yorl are considering the plan Of
combining the formal opening Of their new marble
clubhouse in West Forty fourth-st. with reception
to Lord Chief Justice Russell The matter as yet is
wholly in a tentative FORM The execution OF the
idea depends upon Lord Russells plans, well as
upon the possibility OF getting the new building ready
for occupation before Lord Russell sails for home.
Joseph Larocqie. the president Of the association.
said yesterday: 1T would be proper and pleasant
thing for the association to tender reception Lord
Russell and we would like to do this in our new
building. | do yet know what Lord Russells
plans are have in the newspapers that he will
sail from here either on October or TO- He will make
an extended Canadian tour. but II he arrives here
early enough we could arrange the reception. do
not vet know however, when the new building will
be ready
George II. Adams, a member OF the Executive Com
mittee and of the Administration Committee. which
has charge of the erection Of the building said:
The desirability of rendering reception TO Lord
Russell by the association has been discussed by some
of us informally. We had expected open the new
building about the middle Of October. hut think It
can be got ready by the latter part Of September so
that the reception could be given TO the English Lord
Chief Justice that time. 1t certainly can be done
by october l. believe that inquiries are being inst-
tued regarding Lord Russells plans and II ne can
arrange these the reception WILL uhdouDtell! De
given. The occasion would probably be made one
also. for the formal opening Of the new building;
The finishing work on the new building Is being
rapidly pushed. The furniture for the reception and
reading rooms has been put in The $1,000 volumes or
the library have been placed in position In the main
library the fourth floor and in the other rooms;
IT had been expected that members would be allowed
10 the library by this time. hut 1t Is now said that

No Comprendo

1t was in the District Court this
morning. The judge was there, and
so was Reggie Hitchcock his myrmi-
dons, prisoners and interpreters.
The routine work was going along
as usually and the offenders were
fined, acquitted aud postponed"
Coelho was counting the latest
subsidy to the treasury when Hitch
cock tackled case No 211 aud order
ed him to stand up.
No. 211 was charged with being
drunk and the Deputy-Marsh read
the charge in his softly-modulsted
voice which reminds us OF
"Georgio's" accompaniment to
Adar's fire dance.
Chester Doyle woke up and inter-
preted the charge in the most fluent
Japanese asking the offender to
plead guilty or not
There was a pause. The man
accused of being drunk looked be-
wildered but said nothing. The
Judge rolled his eyes and made more
unintelligible notes in his book Of
record for Luther Wilcox to decipher
at some future date.
"Try him again Chester" said
Reggie in a stage whisper and again
the sweet voice was let go, "Ohio!
weresky you drunksky last nightsky?"
The stolid features of the man in
the docket never relaxed. "Con-
tempt of Court" was written in the
face of the judge, when the man
suddenly responded in the purest
Spanish "No comprendo."
The man was Spaniard and
Chester Doyle is looking for an in
crease in his salary as an alround
interpreter. Reggie says the man
might have been drunk but that the
officer who booked him as a Jap
must have been (profanity) sight
"drunker."

Up to Date.

The drill-shed would have been
crowded on Saturday night if the
rain and generally inclement weather
had not started.
AS it was large audience were
present and greeted Miss Adair and
her clever company.
1t was probably owing to the
dampness of the weather, but it can
not be denied that there was a
damper on the members of the
brilliant troop.
The dancing of Miss Adair was as
exquisite as it could be desired, and
we take the opportunity to compli-
ment the talented lady, not alone on
her dancing but on her withdrawal
of certain political pictures which
heretofore had caused annoyance
among those who are ever ready to
patronize the champion dancer of
the Pacific Coast.
AS ventriloquist, Mr. Emmett is
immense and he kept the audience
roaring. Mr.. Vanderlip was as
usual clever and amusing and the
'boy soprano" was heard with
genuine pleasure.
The next performance will take
place tomorrow night when Elsie
Adair will be greeted by crowd
ed house.

We cannot understand how an in
telligent man like Deputy Marshal
Hitchcock can allow his officers to
prosecute the unfortunate Chinese
who occasionally are caught in a
room where game of cards or domi-
noes is going on. Mr.. Hitchcock
had perfect army of Chinese ar
rayed in the Police Court this morn
ing. Some were charged with gam
bling and others with being present
where gambling took place. To our
knowledge. and we do not doubt
that friend Hitchcock is as we'll in
formed as our reporter, gambling
was going on in many private and
public places in the clubs frequent
ed by Government officials. Why
are the gamblers oil the first degree
not pulled and why is the stern iron
hand of the law only extended to
Chinese and Japanese? We lost
fifty cents at game of cribbage
last night and we want to know
why the winner wasn't "pulled."
We haven't paid the money either.
If the police authorities have any
self,respect they should give rest
to the poor overworked Chinese who
spend their day of rest in manner
suitable to their education. They
can't eat novels or pass their Sunday
in sleeping.
