A RAW YOUNG LAWYER.
His First Case Introduced Him 4
COutemDt of Court

His First Case Introduced Him to
Contempt of Court.
Some of the members of the bar were
discussing contempt cases because OF
a recent notable event in the state, and
one Of the little coterie related a per-
sonnl experience.
Il read law at home and had my ex-
aminatlons through little country
lawyer who knew great deal, but
never had big case and was notorious
for his ability in abusing justices Of
Gus statement, but l had never heard
or thought of such a thing as contempt
of court when l had my first profess
sional experience in n common pleas
court. No sooner had the opposition
attorney made an objection than the
Judge ruled against me.
Il proceeded to inform him that he
was wrong, that he knew he was
wrong and that l wished he would quit
his pettlfogging. The lawyers in at
tendance were temporarily petrihed;
the venerable judge glared at me over
his glasses, finally smiled in a forgiv-
ing sort of way and told me to pro-
ceed, Very soon there was another
well taken objection, and again he
ruled against me. This practically took
the props from under my case, and l
went at the judge ms my instructor had
been accustomed to go at justice of
the peace In back township.
"'Your honor detained, is a po-
litical accident. In the eternal fitness
of things you should be digging coal
or cleaning out underbrush, You have
no more sense Of Justice than a Zulu
chief of mercy. Thank heaven there Is
a higher judicial tribunal In this state
that But there | was halted by n
fine of 5000 or 90 days In jail. The
Judge took me TO his private room,
where he learned my story and remit
ted the fine. To pay 5000 at that time
would have pauperzed me. now

was Fastening from the bookstall
laden with papers, "a good many six
penny ones among them" he dolefully
relates. when, in rushing around a
corner, he fell into the arms Of Rud-
yard Kipling, equally in tearing hur-
ry. They turned on each other with
scowling faces. then smiled in recogni-
tion and asked each other whittier he
went. Then Kipllng, exclaiming,
"Lucky beggar, you've got papers"
seized the bundle from Barrie, flung
him some money and made off. But
you did not stoop to pick up his dirty
halfpence, did you" queried one Of
Mr.. Barrie's hearers amusedly. Didn't

ruefully, "But he hadn't flung me half
enough."-St. James Gazette.

odd Feature. OF French Elections.

There are some curious features con-
nected with French parliamentary elec.
tions. For instance, no wall literature
issued by a candidate or his friends
may be printed on white paper, white
being the color reserved for official an
nouncements. In the days of the en-
pire, when official candidates were
known In the land, the addresses Of
the governments nominees were print
ed on white paper, and this no doubt
had due weight with the more ignorant
voters. Again. any elector whose name
is mentioned in a newspaper can, If he
feel himself aggrieved, call upon the
editor to publish reply. This, how
ever, is not confined to elections, but
Is right enjoyed by French citizens
under the law of the country.

NATURES LESSON.

Is there . cloud in the azure sky
That forgets the mission it hath on hghf
Not one.
Is there star in the curtain of night
That iorgets to shine with radiance bright2
Not one.
Is there n bud in aeld or bower
That forgets to blossom into nowers
Not one.
The clouds, the stars and flowers bright
In a beautiful language speak forth Gods might,
While we. frail creatures OF the dust.
Forget, alas, to be even just,
We stand empty handed, while all around
There lives to brighten, now sorrow bound.
There are deeds which hands should gladly d.
That would cheer some heart its journey through.
A kind word here, good deed there,
Would scatter sweet blessings everywhere

COAL PRICES BOOMING.
New York Dealers Raise Rates -
Threats Of LaMsnits.

New York, Sept. 25.-The two quail
ties Of coal known as pea and buck
wheat, which are now used for steam
generating purposes have Jumped up 81
"a tom Pea coal now costs the consumer
$3.50 and buckWheat 2i0O. Arising out Of
this advance threats of law suits
against dealers are already being heard.
For some time "a large number OF deal
ers under stress OF competition have
consented Co omit IN contracts which
they have made with manufacturers
and larger office buildings the clause
which permits them TO break the agree
ment in case Ut strikes, But, despite
the absence OF this clause, none of the
dealers would supply coal under their
contracts except at the Increased price
Of Sl.00 a ton
The consumers have no alternative
except 10 submit or 60 without coal but
many of them declared today that they
would appeal % the courts TO compel
the coal men 20 live up 20 their con-
tracts and 20 refund money paid beyond
the amount called for IN the agreement.
The retailers profess 20 stand in no

trade they assert will protect them.
