HE GOT A CHANGE OF VENUE.
But the Lawyer Lost His Client In
the Move.

kAo NAovCs
A good story is told Of Kansas City
lawyer He is more of corporation law
yer than anything else, but once in awhile
he has been called upon to show his knowl-
edge of criminal law. II was not so very
long ago that he was in Oklahoma, and no
undertook the defense Of negro who had
killed white man. The feeling against
the negro was intense, and 1t had been
only through the most strenuous efforts Of
the officers that he had been permitted to
live for his trial. twas very evident that
an unprejudiced jury could not DO obtain
cd in the little place whore tho crime was
committed, and it was the intention Of tho
Kansas City man to ask for change Of
venue. After he had worked on tho case
for some time he ascertained that the
judge was going to deny anything like a
change and that his man was to be tried
and hanged as soon az possible. The law
yer thought long and hard over the matter
and finally hit upon scheme which he
thought would be successful In influencing
the court.
BY the liberal use of money he succeed
ed in securing dozen men who, when tho
negro was brought into tho courtroom
were to cry: "Hang himl Hang himr'
The lawyer thought that this would be
evidence Of the prejudice against his client
that could not be overlooked by the court.
The day for the trial arrived, and tho
defendant was brought into court. AS
soon as no made his appearance dozen
shouts went up:
'IIang himl Hang himl Hang the
black scoundrsll'
The cry was taken up all over the court
room, while the attorney smiled to himself
as he saw bis little scheme succeed; but,
to his horror, tho cries redoubled in force,
the crowd surHed in an irresistible wave
toward the prisoner, and before 1t could
be prevented the negro was taken out
and hanged to convenient tree.
The young Kansas City attorney now
confines himself entirely to corporation
law and politics. News.

(says an eminent oculist) because of the
presence In certain veins Of the cyo Of
dark, pulsating blood, as result Of al
coholism, which produces snakes In ap-
pearance and motion. Hitherto 1t has
been supposed that the "snakes" which
men reported having seen in their alcoholic
delirium were simply creatures Of the
imagination. Now we are told that these
Authorizations have an actual basis. Sta
