Washington, Jan. 2O.-Having failed

This order is followed by a long

How the Great Lawyer Won a Hope
less Case.
An old and we'll known traveller, who
has recently settled in Chicago, while
coming in from Pewee valley the other
afternoon told an interesting story
about Henry Clay, the great Kentucky
statesman. The story teller in his
youth lived in Mr.. Clay's district dur
ing the time when Henry Clay was at
his prime as lawyer.
"A man was once being tried for
murder said the narrator, and his
case looked hopeless indeed. He had
without any seeming provocation mur
dered one Of his neighbors in cold
blood. Not a lawyer in the county
would touch the case, Ii looked bad
enough to ruin the reputation of any
barrister.
The man as a last extremity ap-
pealed to Mr.. Clay to take the case for
him. Every one thought that Clay
would certainly refuse. but when the
celebrated lawyer looked into the mat
ter his fighting blood was reused, and.
to the great surprise of all, he accept
ed.
Then came trial the like of which
[ have never seen. Clay slowly car
ried on the case, and it looked more
and more hopeless. The only ground
of defense the prisoner had was that
the murdered man had looked at him
with such Il fierce, murderous look that
out of self defense he had struck first
A ripple passed through the jury at
this evidence.
The time came for Clay to make his
defense. 1t was settled in the minds
of the spectators that the man was
guilty of murder in the first degree.
Clay calmly proceeded, laid all the
proof before them in his mastery way.
then, just as he was about to con-
clude, he played his last and master
card.
Gentlemen of the jury he said
assuming the fiercest, blackest look
and carrying the most undying hatred
in it that have ever seen, gentlemen,
If a man should look at you like this
what would you do"
THAT was all he said, but that was
enough. The jury was startled, and
some even quailed on their seats. The
Judge moved uneasily on his BENCH.
After fifteen minutes the jury filed
slowly back with a Not guilty, your
