This is true tale of the Budding Law
yer and his First Client, says the Phila-
delphia Record. Their meeting was quite
by chance. The Budding Lawyer had not
yet hung out his shingle. The First Gil
ent had been accused of stealing and
pawning a watch, and his employer, who
was a neighbor of the Budding Lawyer,
sent for him and explained the situation.
He has been my coachman for 10 years., -
said the neighbor He is perfectly hon
est" The Budding Lawyer took the case,
and had long talk with the First Gil
ent, who was a colored man. The judge
was much pleased with the Budding Law
yer's earnestness, but he believed the pris-
oner guilty, and did not hesitate to tell the
jury so. The First Client went to Jail for
three months, and the Budding Lawyer
felt that his career was blasted.
Day and night the terrible miscarriage
of justice haunted him. He did not hang
out his Single. Three months passed
slowly, and he was walking dejectedly
through a public square the other day.
when he came face to face with the First
Client looking prosperous and well fed A
terrible suspicion resolved itself into a ray
of hope. The First Client tried to dodge
him, but it was too late. II s pose you am

said the Budding Lawyer. But tell me
this: did you steal that watch?" The
First Client was silent for a moment
and then said: 'Mistah Lawyer, de less
we say bout dat de bettah." A great load
seemed lifted from the breast of the Bud
ding Lawyer. He became a new man,
hung out his shingle, and is now cheerful

Harrison was so devout a church men,
Der that many persons nave refused to
believe that he had ever been profane,
says the New York Evening Post. Only
one instance is recalled, and that is sub
stantiated, like a corresponding incident
in George Washingtons career, by the
testimony of ear-witnesses. It. was in the
Atlanta campaign in 1884, when, a $ col
onel of the Seventh Indiana Volunteers,
he took conspicuous part in the battle
of Peach Tree Creek. The regiment was
lying under cover with strict orders to
hold its fire until the command was given!
One man, too excited and nervous to lie
still sprang up and fired. Col. Harrison
seized his blanket, which was done up
In roll fastened with a strap, and jump
ing up hurled it at the exeitable soldier,
at the same time shouting out a loud,
hearty, rotund Damn The blanket
struck the soldier full in the face, and
either that or the unexpectedness of the
profane word from his exemplary colonel
laid him fiat on his back, ready to obey
orders for the rest of the campaign.

Former Judge Henry E. Rowland has
a deservedly high reputation as an after
dinner speaker, says the New York Mail
and Express. 1t is his practice to connect
five minutes of serious talk with twenty
five minutes of storytelling All of his
stories are aproDos, and most of them
are new. At the dinner of st. Davids So
ciety the other night the judge was in
a happy vein. The anecdote which was
received with the greatest laughter was
that of the little boy who was considera-
bly, puzzled by the theory of evolution.
One day he said to his mother:
Mamma, am descended from a mon
key?"
Il don't know" she answered; ct never
met any of your fathers people"

AND YET TALK Is CHEAP,

A New York court is coming the au-
thorities to see If there is in the law any
chronological cause for divorce. The cir
cumstances of the case in point briefly
told are these: The plaintiff was some
few years ago O. schoolma'am, devoted to
her profession. 1t was her delight to
chase up, or run down, as one may
choose to express it, the derivatives of
Latin or Greek roots. She would root
joyed finding one as much as the average
man enjoys finding a dollar-bill in a last
years pocket She just reveled in and
dotted on polysyllables, and sentence
filed with words of five or more sylla-
bles. every root of which she understood
perfectly, would cause her to be happy as
lark whole day.
Then came along a good looking young
man, who seemed to know nothing and
to care for nothing but Latin and Greek
roots, and polysyllables. He could reel
of sentences that would give the aver
age professor the Jaw-ache. He would
go for a hundred words without a period,
and five, six and seven syllabled words
flowed from his tongue as smooth as oil.
He was wonder, and the pretty school
ma'am was soon entranced. She would
follow him through the genealogical
mazes. sometimes as one follows a guide
through a dark underground at night, by
holding to his coat-talls, but she always
came out flushed and delighted. It was
no wonder therefore, that when the
bright and handsome young man asked
her to marry him, she consented. The
dream Of her life was a mental pabulum
of big words and fine, long sentences;
and she thought she had attained it.
But almost as soon as the nuptlal knot
had been safely tied there came a meta
morphosis. The former lover, now the
husband. quickly dropped the big words
of the old languages and devoted him
self exclusively TO the simplest form Of
monosyllabic English. Nor would he
use much OF that. Try how she would.
and the wife declared to the court she
tried every means that her woman's in
genuity could suggest. she could not
draw her husband into one OF the de-
Hghtful old conversations. His replies TO
her questions and suggestions would al
ways be in simple words, and direct to
the point. The very longest sentence.
she told the court, that she could recall
since her husband crawled into his mon
osyllabic shell was as follows:
Would you like to go 70 the library?
BERTHE will go with you and win stay
and smoke n cigar"
Al length. and reluctantly. she became
convinced that Il was objectionable cru
city for her husband 20 talk to her IN
this manner She reasoned that he had
wooed and won her by leading her 20
believe. falsely, that as husband he
would continue 20 be the walking the
saurus he had been as a lover. She
wanted husband who not only knew
how TO talk nuentiy. but was willing 10
DO a. Therefore, she asked tho court
Tor divorce. And 81 is impossible not

pointed fchoolma'am However, there BE-

cARNDGIE,s PLACE OF RESIDENCE


CARNEGIE's PLACE OF RESIDENCE.
Mr.. Carnegie is building residence in
New York city which. when 1t is finished,
VIII surpass many of the palaces of Eu-
rope In splendor. But will Mr.. Carnegie
reside in It? That question may depend
upon legislation that Is now pending in
the Legislature of New York. On last
Wednesday, before the Joint Committee
Of the Legislature on Taxation, while the
Stranahan bin was under consideration
Mr.. Lawson Purdy brought forward the
case of Mr. Carnegie in support of his
argument in favor of the bill and against
taxing debts. Under the law as 1t ex-
lists at present in New York nearly all
securities are taxable, though it has not
been the practice to tax mortgages and
bonds based on mortgages, as 1t has been
regarded as double taxation, but under
the pressure that has been brought by
the holders of real estate there is a dis
position now to enforce the law. Hence
there is a movement to change the law.
The pending Stranahan bill provides that
mortgages shall pay one-half of one per
cent. to the state and shall not be liable
for municipal or county taxes. The con-
tention against the bill is that there
ought not to be any taxes on mortgages
but mortgage holders are willing TO have
the stranahan bill passed rather than
that the law as It now stands shall be
enforced.
Mr.. Lawson Purdy called attention to
Mr.. Carnegie, saying that until recently
his property was mainly in non-assessa-
BILE stocks, but that since the formation
of the billion-dollar steel trust he had
come into possession of about 5000. OOO. 600
in taxable per cent. bonds. If Mr.. Car
negie makes his home in New York city
his taxes will amount TO about $500
900 a year Mr.. Purdy said it was pref
ty certain that Mr.. Carnegie would not
pay that amount to live in New York
city; that he would have his legal resi-
dence in some other state His taxes in
Pittsburg, Pa. would be Si.20O0O0 and in
Boise City, Idaho, they would be. moth
ing, because In the latter state debts are
not taxed
II the law In New York should remain
as It is. and Mr.. Carnegie should occupy
his residence In New York city and make
that city his legal residence his annual
taxes would amount 20 a great deal more
than his gift TO the city for libraries
The probabilities are that he VIII give
New York a wide berth unless the law IS
changed. And even II Il should be
changed in accordance with the provisions
OF the stranahan bin n would sti cost
him $4,000 20 have his legal residence
in that city.
