THE LAWYER SHOULD BE PURE.

Circuit Judge Rowe, in decid-
ing the 10 Johnson disbarment
case at Ft. Smith the other day,
read lengthy opinion, a para
graph of which is printed below.
1t is remembered that 10 Johnson,
prosecuting attorney, permitted a
case to be tried by a jury COM
posed Of lewd women. Judge
Rowe said:
"Of all men, the lawyer ought
to stand forth like a polished
shaft, upright and without spot
or blemish, and with a mind bent
on nothing but good toward God,
his country and his fellow man.
The jury empaneled to try the
case before Justice Baker was
composed Of harlots. | have
been unable after a dill ligent
search Of both divine and profane
history to find a single instance
where such characters were used
as instruments in the administra-
ton Of justice. 1t took thousands
Of years of enlightenment and
culture to reach this glorious
climax in civilization and human
progression, but at last the elys
stun Of the administration Of
justice is reached and eliminated
in the trial mention cd in the city
Of Fort Smith in the year Of our
Lord 1900. 1t is said that Solo
mon was the wisest man in the
world, and on some occasions he
said there was nothing new under

pute this, but will throw out the

YOUR MOTHER,

A father talking to his careless
daughter, said: 81 want to speak
to you of your mother. 1t may
be that you have noticed a care
worn look upon her face lately.
OF course it has not been brought
there by any act of yours, still it
is your duty to chase it away. l
want you to get up tomorrow
morning and get breakfast, and
when your mother begins to ex-
press her surprise, go right up
and kiss her on the mouth. You
can't imagine how it will brighten
up her dear face. Besides you
owe her kiss or two. Away
back when yOu were little she
kissed you when no one else was
tempted by your swollen face.
You were not so attractive thcn
as now. And through those
childish years Of sunshine and
shadow she was always ready to
cure by the magic Of a mothers
kiss the little, dirty, chubby
hands whenever they were in
jured in their first skirmishes
with this rough, cold world.
And then the midnight kisses
with which she routed so many
dreams as she leaned over your
restless pillow, have all been on
interest these young long years.
OF course she is not SO pretty
and kissable as you are, but if
you had done your share OF the
work during the past ten years,
the contrast would not be so
marked. Her face has more
wrinkles than yours-far more
and yet if you were sick that face
would appear more beautiful than
any angels as it hovered over
you, watching every opportunity
to minister to your comfort; and
every one of these wrinkles would
appear as bright wavelets Of sun.
shine chasing each other ovel
her dear face. She will leave
you some one of these days
These burdens, if not lifted from
her shoulders, will break her
down. Those hands that did 50
many unnecessary things for you
will be crossed upon her lifeless
breast. Those neglected lips
that gave you your baby kiss will
be closed forever, and those tired
eyes will have opened in eternity,
and then you will appreciate your
mother; but it will be too late"
The Guardian.

TFAGEDY IN WHITE COUNTY.

4 double tragedy is reported
from near West Point, White
county. 1t seems that Pete
Blanchard, a timber man of that
vicinity, and two brothers named
West, one Oscar and the other
Enlmet, were engaged in playing
care A difficulty came up, in
which the West boys accused
Blanchard Of cheating. Blan-
.chard denied the charge, but
sail before he would have any
trouble he would give them So
and did give them the money.
This did not satisfy the West
boys, one of whom slapped Blan-
chard in the face and the other
drew a dirk, About this time
the lights went out and some
shooting followed. When the
lamps were relighted one of the
West boys was found dead, the
other mortally wounded and
Blanchard had left the place.
