Fun in Reducing the Docket.
From The Baltimore Sun.

United States District Judge Jackson of
West Virginia, is a Woodworking official,
but despite this fact the docket of his
court of Charleston has grown to huge
proportions on account of the dilatOry
movements of the lawyers. Wednesday
last the judge announced his purpose to
clear the docket of all its dead wood if
possible, and at once commenced the work
in earnest. The result was the exhibit
ion of more humor than had been witnessed
in the judges court for a long while. In
one case the judge asked a prominent
attorney whom he represented, and the
reply was. Il don't remember; some one
who wanted to collect money l am sure"
This case was stricken from the docket.
In another case the judge inquired rs
there anything left in this case that the
lawyers haven't got2" A response quickly
came; Yes, sir, there is, and they should
be allowed a chance to get it," Stricken
from the docket. In another case the judge
remarked to an attorney that he seem
ed to have inherited it, to which the
lawyer replied that he was willing to
reuounce the inheritance" He wants TO
escape the inheritance tax" said another
attorney, soto voee. There was another
case, in which ala the parties to the suit
were dead except one corporation, which
had gone up" These are but samples.
The docket was largely reduced.

A young woman who always affects blue
in all of her costumes went in quest of
a blue bicycling costume Abe other day;
but her choice OF color met with such
hearty disaDproval from the tailors that
she really didn't have the moral courage
10 stick to her demand for dark blue. She
compromised by ordering a gown of mill
tary blue cloth, a shade of blue that is
tolerated this season by Dame Fashion.
The skirt fitted close over the hips and
was cut with rather straight front and
side cores so that there was but little
flare. The fullness at the back was laid
in narrow underapping plaits. AT the
front gore. where the skirt fastened, there
were narrow stitched straps of the cloth.
Around the bottom of the skirt there were
numerous rows Of stitching.

straight military affair, finished with rows
of stitching.
