AN IRISH JUDGE.
Specimens of the Wit for Which Lord
Morris Became Fa-
nous.

Lord Morris, always wit and now
distinguished judge, comes from
Galway, and has never lost the mel
lifiuous brogue of west of Ireland
folk. This characteristic makes the
groundwork of a story which the Lon
don Telegraph tells of him.
One day Lord Morris was sitting at
the Four Courts as lord chief JUS
tice of Ireland, when a young bar
rister from the north rose nervous
ly to make his first motion. The
judge had declared that no one listen
ing to himself would ever take him
for anything but an Irishman, which
was perfectly correct. But Galway
could not understand Antrim. The
the associate where the barrister
hailed from.
County Antrim was the response.
Then asked his lordship of the Of
fetal: did We liver come across SIGH
a frightful accint in the course of yer
loife?''
At another time it fell to his lot
to hear case at Coleraine, in which
damages were claimed from a veter-
mary surgeon for having poisoned a
ValudDlc morse. Inc issue OeD0uu0u
upon whether a certain number of
grains of a particular drug could be
safely administered to the animal.
The dispensary doctor proved that
ne had often given eight grains to
man, from which it was to be in
ferred that IL for horse was not
excessive.
"Never mind yer eight grains,
know that some poisons are cumula
tive in effect, and We may go to the
edge of ruin with impunity. But tell
me this: The IL grains-wouldn't
they kill the divil himself if he swal-
lowed them?"
The doctor was annoyed and POM
pously replied: 81 don't know, my
lord: I never had him for a patient"
From the bench came the answer:
"Ah, no, docther, We niver had, more's
the pity! The old bhoy's still aloive."

symptom of danger anywhere within
their ken. He was thinking at the mo-
ment of that precious package in his
saddle-bags and the colonel's words i'm
pressing him with the sense of response
bi.ity the night they parted at Fort
Emory. Tomorrow, by sunrise, if for
tune favored him, he could turn it over
to the commanding officer at the new
stockade, and then if the Indians were
not gathered in force about the post
and actually hostile, he could slip out
again at night and make swift dash for
the Platte and the homeward way, and
then within the week rejoin his sister
at Fort Emory-his sister and Pap
poose." Never before had the Indian
pet name carried such significance as
now. Night and day those soft, dark
eyes-that beautiful face-haunted his
thoughts and filled his young heart
with new and passionate longing. It
was hard to have to leave the spot her
presence made enchanted ground.
Nothing but the spur of duty, the thrill
of soldier achievement and stirring
venture could have reconciled him to
that unwe,come order.
In one week now, If fortune favored
and heaven spared, he could hope to
look again into the eyes that had so en-
chained him, but if there should inter
pose the sterner lot of the frontier, if
the Sioux should learn of his presence,

schemes of vengeance, he at whose door

ACelebrotcd Romon Enter.

Touching the matter of eating, the
stories told by the old chroniclcrs and
historians of the abnormal appctiteS OF
certain Roman and oriental men of
note fairly staggcr belief. Gibbon tells
of Soliman, Il caliph in the eighth cen
fury. who died of indigestion in his
camp near Chalcis. in Syria. just as he
was about to lead an army of Arabs
against Constantinople. He had emp
tied two baskets of eggs and figs.
which he swallowed alternately, and
the repast was finished With marrow
and sugar. In n pilgrimage to Mecca
the same caliph had eaten With impn-
nifty at n single meal 40 pomegranates,
kid. 6 fowls and a huge quantity Of
the grapes of Taycf.
Such statement would defy belief
were not others of similar character
we'll avouched. Louis XIV could hard
ly boast of an appetite rs ravenous rs
Soliman's, but he would eat at n sitting
four platefuls of different soups, a
whole pheasant, q partridge, plateful
of salad, mutton hashed with garlic,
two good sized slices of ham. a dish of
pastry and finish with fruit and sweet
meats.

Passed Over.

FL ocIlU, July Il.-W uoIl must u
man who has registered and drawn a
number appear and declare his choice
OF the land he wishes to enter? is q
question asked many times q day.
The moment man receives his cer:iti-
cate OF registration aud before the
drawing takes place he is at liberty to
inspect the lands in the new country
in order to select claim in case he
should be lucky enough to draw q
number. On July 90, at FL Reno, the
drawing will begin and continue until
all the envelopes containing the identl-
tication cards are taken from the
wheel. The result of the drawing for
each district will be certified by the
committee in charge to the officers of
the respective land districts and will
determine the order in which the
registered applicants may make home
stead entry of ssld lands and settle
ment thereon. NOTICE of the drawing,
stating the name OF each applicant
and number assigned to him by the
drawing will DO posted each day ut the
place of drawing and each applicant
will be notified of his number by q
postal card mailed to HIM ut the post
Office address given by him on his
identification card at the time of hrs
registration. The names OF persons
who draw numbers will be printed
daily III The Star.
Applications at the proper land Of
flee for homestead entry of lands
drawn can be made only by registered
applicants holding numbers and in the
numerical order established ty the
drawning. AT each land 1llice, COM
mencing Tuesday, August 6, at 8
o'clock, the apple atoms of those hold
| ing Nos. to 125, inclusive, for that
district must be presented and be con-
sldered in their numerical order dur
ing the first day, and tie applications
of those drawing Nos. 1875 to 210, in
elusive, must be presented and will be
considered in their numerical order
during the second day, and so on at
that rate until all of said lands subject
to entry under the homestead law, ana
desired hereunder, have been entered.
If any applicant fails to appear and
present his application for entry when
the number assigned to him by the
drawing is reached his right to enter
will be passed until after the other
applications assigned for that day
have been disposed of, when no will
be given another Opportunity to make
entry. failing in which he will be
deemed to have abandoned his right to
make entry under such drawing.
Thus it will be seen thet the place
where man must appear is at his
respective land office and the time
when he must appear is the day when
his number will be called by the land
office officials. He should be CAREFUL
to learn on what day his number will
be called. The agent of soldier with
power of attorney can appear at the
land Office and make entry for the
soldier he represents when the latter's
number is called.
