CODE OF ETHICS.
American Law Review.

American Law Review.
The president of the newly formed Bar
Association of North Carolina has writ
ten to us, asking us to refer him to any
code of legal ethics, outside of those Ct
the Virginia, Georgia and Alabama Bar
Associations, or to any work en- legal
ethics, other than that of Sharswood, to
assist him in preparing code of legal
ethics for his Bar Association. We are
unable to aid him, but ask that our
learned readers will do so # they can.
We venture however, to throw out he
suggestion that, in any code of legal
ethics, there ought to be a provision that
when the judge enters the court room to
open court, gowned or ungowne1, the bar
and the audience shall rise and face the
judge, and shall not take their seats in-
til the judge, by bowling or some oher
sign, indicates that they are to do Sd,
This is the rule in the courts OF the Uni
ted States everywhere, so far as we
know; but in the State courts in some
of the States, and especially in Missouri
the bar often pays no attention to the
Judge when he comes in. Some are stand
ing up with their overcoats on; others
are sitting on one chair with their heels
on another; others are picking their teeth
with their pocket knives, and still others
do not refrain from talking, laughing and
cracking jokes after the court crier has
announced the opening of court. This is
a disgrace, and the bar ought not tc put
upon the judge the difficult task of
breaking up such practices, and of re-
curing them to behave decently in the
presence of the court. The judge may be
only lawyer-a mere lawyer-and he
may be poor one at that; but he repre-
sents the sovereignty, the dignity, and
the justice of the State-such as that is
and the bar ought, out of mere decency,
to exhibit to him the outward forms of
respect and Difference which becomes his
office

BORGIAN ARTS IN PARIS.

A Modern French Poisoning Story.
An extraordinary affair has hap
pened at the Chinese legation in Paris,
which has already been the scene of
some startling episodes. The italian
secretary of the Chinese minister, Sig
nor Armani di Parma on opening his
correspondence recently, found a letter
signed by Polish woman named
Marie de Czerwinska, who gave an adj
dress in the Rue de Gibson. She set
liant forth that after having shown as
forth that after having shone as a
bright particular star in Lithuanian
social life, she had to become an exile
and to live in Paris. She was at pres
ent she added on the brink of starva-
tion, and said that nothing could be
done by her except to start for China.
As she is a linguist, knowing besides
Polish, the Russian, French, and Ital-
ian languages, she thought that she
the allied forces in the far east The
secretary of the Chinese legation was
asked to kindly provide funds for her
departure for the land of the Boxers,
and to fix a meeting. Signor Armani
di Parma was about to throw the letter
in the waste paper basket when he saw
that the envelope contained another in
closure. Opening this he found inside
it flower resembling a daisy. which
he mechanically applied to his nose
and was instantly overcome by drow-
sy sensation.
Pulling himself together after few
minutes of somnolence, and being thor
oughly revived by a sniff of smelling
salts, the secretary rang for an attend
ant, whom he asked to examine the
flower. The man put the daisy, or
whatever it happens to be, to his nose.
and he too. became temporarily over
powered with drowsiness. Another at
tendant was called and experienced
the same strange sensations. Signor
Armani di Parma then sent the envel-
ope and all its contents to the police
The flower was handed over to chem
ical expert for analysis, and warrant
was issued for the immediate arrest of
Marie de Czerwinska. She was found
in the Rue de Gibson, and appears to
be about forty-nine years old She ad-
mitted having sent the letter, but dis
oNoNcu TIE mower. Inc ponce OI1lF1al
who examined her said that the letter
arrived intact at the legation, where
upon the Polish woman replied mys-
terfously that it must have been op-
ened by counters, who was her NOR
tai enemy, and who possessed III the
secrets of Lucrezia Borgia and Of the
Borgia family generally. II was the
countess, who in order to ruin her had
put poisoned flower in the commune
cation intended for the secretary OF the |
Chinese minister. The woman was then
sent to the Sant-LaZare prison where |
she is undergoing examna ton as to |
her mental condition. The landlady |
says that she stayed out rather late,
and was fond of talking about wiring
to the president of the republic ard the !
The landlady lccordi 1sly
arrived at the conclusion that Nine.
lie Czerwinska was a little demented.

prisoner has also stated to the police

him." and he would be watchful here
after. He said he regretted his "foule
and seditious words, and that the gov
eminent Of the town was according to
God" (Which is more than we can
sayD His offence was then cancelled
and the only shadow left upon him was
bond of one hundred pounds for fu-
ture good behavior.
In the following June trouble again
broke out with the Dutch, and he was
so far restored to favor that when an
authorized expedition was made up to
go against them, he was appointed
"chiefe drummer" with an assistant
under him. 1t may be that the honors
of drum major" were expected to af-
FORD some compensation for his ''prev1-
Gus condition of servitude."
Time forbids further development of
this picture, besides we have reached
the point where he apparently vanishes
from the public eye. Possibly he rea-
liked he had talked too much''-a fate
perhaps awaiting Bassett historians,
From Stamford he removed to Hemp
stead, l.. L., and died there about 1910.
In taking leave of him--putting away
the picture-the conclusion Is irresisti-
BILE that he builded better than he
knew. His temperament was lily suit
ed to the conditions imposed upon life
in the new world. If he was not
Puritan neither was he a Pharisee! If
he was not moralst, neither was he a
Wantont If he was not a prophet, at
least he had the voice Of prophet and
as the evangelist Of old cried Repent!
The kingdom of heaven is at hand be-
fore ever he had seen the Master, so
Robert Bassett cried in the wilderness
of Connecticut before ever he had seen
the dawn of freedom breaking in the
sky, Relent! relent! the day Of liberty

| WillSesbarre, Pa, Sept 1S,-The close
of the second day Of the miners strike
finds honors about equally divided be-
tween the opposing forces in the Wyo-
ming valley The coal companies We're
able to put a few washeries in opera
ton and continued at work all day.
The colliery of the Westend company
at Mocanaque worked to-day again
with full force, the committee of unit
ed mine workers who went to the town
being unable to get the men to join
them.
The miners held meetings in various
places this afternoon and evening"
President Nichols came up from Haz-
elton this afternoon and addressed a
large meeting of the union and nom
union men at Sugar Notch. Before the
meeting the union and non-union men
started to quarrel. The non-union men
accused the union men of calling them
hard names. There We're several
knockdowns before the fighters could
be separated. AS result of an APP
peal from Mr. Nichols nearly all pres
ent Joined the union. A number of spec
ial officers We're sworn in to-day to
protect coal company property. AS a
rule the strikers are keeping away
from the works.
The stoppage of shipments of coal
has thrown nearly 1900 railroad men,
mostly brakemen, out of work. The
following roads are affected: Central
Railroad of New Jersey, Lehigh Valley,
Ontoria and Western, Delaware, Lack
awanna and Western, Delaware and
Hudson and Pennsylvania.
The operators say they have nothing
to give out tonight beyond the fact
that they can see no settlement in vieyy

Altoona, Pa, Sept. 1S.-The anthra-
cite coal operators need expect no aid
from the btuminous operators in their
struggle against the miners. At re-
cent meeting the operators of this dis
trict decided not to NEEDLE in the trou-
bles of the eastern district. They are
having plain sailing at present and do
not desire to court trouble They have
all the orders they can fill at present
and some are behind because of lack
of cars during the summer. The strike
will divert the cars to the bituminous
field and the operators are looking for
the biggest business in their history
this fall. All the miners are at work,
and there is no indication of sympa-
thetic strike.
