A former attorney general of the

Miller of the federal supreme court:
Judge Miller was a very agreeable

his life became somewhat impatient
upon the bench. He was no orator him.

all attempts at oratory in court. have
seen him on more than one occasion
disjoint with sharp questions beauti-
fully prepared speech with which an
ambitious orator expected to charm
and captivate the court. One midsum-
mer day, as it is said, he was holding
court In a western state, and a lawyer,
whom we will call Brown, was aG-
dressing him in n long, rambling
speech. The judge listened and famed
himself and fidgeted about on the
bench for some time, and. finally, lean
ing over his desk, said in an audible
whisper, "Confound it Brown, come to
the point"
What point?" inquired the some
what astonished lawyer.
ANY point" responded the judge;
and, though the sequel does not appear,
it is probable that there was a rapid
condensation of talk in that courtroom
