SERIOUS MIR. BRADY

deputy Prothonotary James J. Brady
is a young man OF serious cast of char
acter. While he enjoys joke in his
own quiet way, he views the tollier
side Of life from afar on, and never
purposely participates in its doinee.
His extreme seriousness and maeter-of-
faesness have Often impressed them
selves upon the Whyfarer, who nae
almost daily occasion to come in con
tact with him. Kind, honest. faithful.
obliging and serious. These word rem
resent his character.
Whenever the Superior Court pro-
poses to go over the trial list II makes
announcement Of the fact in open
court. In compliance with the request
Of the Judges the newspapers herald
the fact TO the members OF the bar, and.
as an additional precaution, to reach
those lawyers who neither hear the
court nor read the newspapers, Pro-
thonotary WooLey sends out typewr1t-
ten notices, Mr.. Brady being the me-
dunn OF transmission.
Some days ago occasion arose for
such service. Mr.. Brady visited several
law Offices and left notices. FINALLY
he reached one tenanatd by a facetioua
disciple of Solon and Draco who
thought TO have some fun at the ex-
pense OF the serious young inter
mediary. After reading the notice this
lawyer said:
Brady, when you go back to the
Court House please tell the court. foi
me, TO go to the devil"
Mr. Brady did not change counee.

it to the COURT he replied.
'Oh, never mind" said the lawyer
visions Of disbarment proceedings fit
ting across his mental horizon. "Il
attend to The matter personally"
"AEl right sir" answered Mr. Brady

BROTHER WAKEFIELD HAS DE-
PARTED.

Brother James Wakefield. Of the Lit
tie Valley Tribune, passed through
Giveadam Gulch two days ago for the
east. He is done with the newspaper
business in Arizona. He came out here
with high hopes and ambitions, and he
confessed to bitter disappointment. Lit
tie Valley people gave him warm well
come. but after he had issued his hrst
number they, of course, started IN TO
size him up as man. The paper was
all right, but had the editor any sand!
They sent a man into the Office to blum
him. and Brother Wakefield took the
bluff. They sent man in to pull his
nose. and the nose didn't object. That
settled it. Every critter for twenty
miles around who wanted to lick some
body sailed into Brother Wakefield lie
was held up. stood up, knocked down,
and made to eat dirt, and at length ne
gave up the struggle and suspended MS
paper. He talked o us with trembling
lin and tears in his eyes, but we had
no word of consolation. lie ought 10
have known better than to have come
out here in the first place. A baker or
butcher might get along by dueking
and lodging and crawfishing but an
editor who won't fight and fight Tor all
he's worth had better keep out OF the
swim. He may be weak in politics and
poetry, but he's expected to be nancy
with a pop and take no sass from any
body.
