TRICK OF VOICE.

now One Lawyer Keeps tho judge E~ou
sleeping.
There is said to be a lawyer in Phil
adelphia who possesses trick of the
voice to which a certain measure OF his
practice is due. The trick consists in
waking Judge. Whether 1t is COM
mon practice for the high dignitaries
Of the federal supreme bench to in
dulge in a nap in the course of long
and tedious argument. such happen
ings are not unknown. and 1t is we'll
for an able logician Of the bar to be
prepared for It. The trick Of waking a
sleepy Judge would seem to be some
thing in the nature Of slamming law
book under his nose or connecting his
personality with the current of an
electric battery. But the trick is ex-
planned as purely a matter OF sound
involved in the skillful control of the
voice. It Ia said that barrister prac-
ticed in the art and rhetoric of address
Ing the bench can gather all the waves
Of sound from his throat into a focus
and deposit it in the orifice of the
judges ear with the general effect of a
bomb. The trick. however 1t is ac-
complished, is said to have been worked
repeatedly with success on the late
Judge McKennan, whose nnbit OF going
to sleep on the bench was once no.
torious subject Of comment in the liti-
CATION over the Berliner telephone pat
ents. This queer trick Of the voice,
while it is said to be the peculiar prop
erty of one celebrated lawyer, is prob
ably attempted often with varying sue
cess by others. philadelphia Record.

SEM -OMSED.

This is the carnival week for
Des Moines. There is a large
crowd in attendance and the
weather favorable, yet the enter
tainment is poor. The citizens
have not(with the exception of a
few prepared or even decorated
for it, nor is the city lighted up
in the usual carnival manner. It
is certainly not up to previous
ones given here. Were it not for
the Horse Show and the Wild
West performance it would have

.BOUHER I. WASHINGTON
AND ROOSEVELT.

Last week the associated and
telegraphic association sent out
what was purported to be an IN
terview, between Booker T.
Washington and President Roose-
welt. In which the president
sent for Mr.. Washington to ask
his advice as to some appoint
ments in the Southern states.
The newspaper report Mr.. Wash
ington as advising the president
not to appoint any co1ored man
to Office nor any white republi-
can politician, for both elements
are obnoxious to the South, and
to appoint a co1ored man would
engender the old political hatred
toward the race.
While we would not defend Mr..
Washington if he made such a
similar statement, we prefer or
hope that the reporters and news
papers has misquoted him. While
it would have been and may be
better for our race as a whole to
remain out of politics and if they
had use the same energies, and
presistancy as they do in trying
to secure some political appoint
ment. But the error that Mr..
Washington made, if the above
statement is true, was the ad-
vising the turning down of the
true white republicans and the
worthy colored republicans who
have held the party up in defeat.
We must remember that that it
means something for white men
to live in the South and advocate
republican doctrine, and then
again we should never forget and
ever remember our true and tried
white friends in the days of need.
Do not offend those old comrades,
both white and black, who made
it possible for us today to live.
Our race needs honest, good and
well trained public men, as they
do 1aborers. We hope the presi.
dent will reward the colored re.
publicans as he does all other
classes.
