A Legal Experience.

Justice F. E. Duncan, of Des Moines,
Ia, gained some experience and in
cidentalfy lost 81 to prominent Grim
inal lawyer recently, says the Green
Bag. The lawyer dropped into the JUS
tice court one day.
Are you ready to take up the Ada
Hazlewood case?" asked the court.
Didn't know 1t was set for to-day"
replied the attorney Thought it was
put down for tomorrow"
mo, it was set for to-day and the
witnesses are here"
"Well, let's put it off until to-mor-
row. We are not ready" pleaded the
lawyer.
Cant do that" ruled the court.
"We'll take the states testimony to-
day, and you can put your witnesses
on tomorrow"
but 1 don't want to do that"
well, you'll have to do it,
bet you a dollar you don't take the
states testimony" said the lawyer.
Guess we will If say SOL
'Is the bet still good?"
yes: I'll take it,
And the money was put up.
'"The witnesses for the state in the
case against Ada Hazlewood will rise
and be sworn ordered the court.
mo, You don't" retorted the law
yer. 1--WE waive examination and will
go to the grand jury. Give me the two
dollars"
And the court turned over the
money.

Andrew Bailey Young Of Belmont,

and his wife celebrated the siXty-sixth

week.
The widow of Sir Hector Macdonald
and her son have received the maxi
mum allowance from the government
possible in the case of the widow and
child of an officer. In addition an ap-
peal has been issued for funds to en-
able the boy to continue his education
at Dulwich College and give him a
start in life.
Count Tolstoi's contribution of 81, 500
in aid of the prosecuted Jews of
Kishineff is one of the largest made
in Russia. Though not a Jew and a
harsh critic at times of the Jewish
theology, Tolstoi has not hesitated to
denounce in measured terms the treat
ment of the race by the Russian gov
eminent and people.
"A lot of young fellows in an Ohio
town had a good time with a tramp
last week. They took him into a shed,
gave him a good bath, shaved him and
cut his hair. They then bought a new
suit of clothes, white shirt and stand
ing collar and dressed him out COM

burn his hobo clothes he objected and
fought for them with such desperation
their suspicious were aroused and up
on searching they found $1,400 sewed
up in the coat.

Delight in old Age.

In the lobby of the Shoreham last
evening stood a venerable gentleman,
tall, with long flowing locks, snow
white, and a beard to match that of
Senator Stewart of Nevada, says the
Washington Post. He was none other
than the i1lustrious George jurist,
Judge Logan E. Bleckley, who, though
rs years of age, is still in the enjoy
ment of excellent health and with his
mental faculties unimpaired. Judge
Bleckley has been a noted lawyer for
half century, and he was for years
chief Justice of the Supreme Court of
his state. In a pleasant chat with a
Post reporter, the ex-justice said:
Il am decidedly in accord with Pres
ident Roosevelt in the matter of re-
plenishing the human race. 1t is a
mistake approximating crime for peo-
pie to remain unmarried, and the bigger
the families of a nation the better.
MY life has been one of peace and,
though I have in some respects been
highly honored, 1 never cared for the
turmoil of politics. I want to say,
though, that these latter days are the
happiest of my career, I never dreamed
that old age would be so full of de-
light. Let no young man look upon it
with dread, for if he has lived Alright,
it will be the happiest period of his ex-
istence."

CURRENT COMMENT.

The Norfolk (Va.) Landmark (Dem.)
says: Count Cassini, the Russian
ambassador. in an interview with re-
gard to the Kishineff massacre,
strangely neglects to say a single word
condemning the atrocity. And the
Count represents the flower of Russian
civilization
Commenting on the Postoffice De-
partment scandals and Postmaster
General Payne's remarks concerning
them, the Galveston News (Dem.) says:
Irregularities and inexcusable ex-
travagance' are merely soft terms APP
piled to relatives, friends and work.

tons of public money have been ac-
cidentally discovered Our dictionary
is something wonderful. Isn't it? A
thief is not always a thief in this coun-
try"
The Brooklyn Eagle (Dem.) continues
to argue against the third term idea
candidate. 1t says: Moreover, we
have failed to encounter a man or a
paper that sincerely urges the anti
third term idea against Cleveland. Sun
dry politicians and editors whom we
have met frankly admit that there is
nothing in 1t, though some of them
avow their purpose to use the idea for
all 1t is worth against Cleveland, be-
cause they don't like him.. That re-
tires them from respect and their 'rea-
sons from consideration. Other people
say that the third term matter pre-
sents no objection to them. but they
know lot of folks to whom il viii,

fer are sought out. they disavow any

No one can find any man who Is really
opposed to Cleveland for third term
reasons. Some Of them are opposed

ready said, use the third term mat
ter as a mask for their real reasons

there Is nothing IN the idea. but we

parting that it was necessary for the
hotel clerk to Introduce them, says the

The Parrot was Wise.

A Manayunk man the other day said
that parrot in the possession Of one
of his friends had a large vocabulary,
but the bird. unfortunately, swore,
says the Philadelphia Record. For a
long time its owner debated as to how
he could best cure it of this habit, and,
finally, he hit on the plan of throwing a
cup of cold water over it every time
it let out an oath. The cure worked
slowly, but well. Within a month the
parrots oaths had been reduced from
fifteen to one or two a day. Now for
the story. The other afternoon 1t was
raining. The parrots cage was beside
a window, and past this window three
children, drenched to the skin, hap
pened to walk The bird, regarding
them, said: AHA, you've been swear
ing again." This tale has an improb-
able sound, but it must be understood
that AHA, you've been swearing
again." was the phrase that its master
always used with the parrot, after
drenching it with the cup of water.

Joke On KubeIik.

The English papers tell an anecdote
on Kubeliks performance at lunatic
asylum. The doctor in charge held,
with Congreve, that music hath
charms to sooth the savage breast"
and the distraught mind. So he ask
ed the great violinist to play some
thing, something lively" a request
to which Kubelik responded by play
ing a brilliant Slav composition. The
patients, who were seated about the
platform in chairs, all seemed deeply
interested in the music. "As 1 finish
ed" says Kubelik, "a very pretty
young woman rose and beckoned to
me. Artistlike, 1 thought she wanted
an encore. and said to the doctor,
Ask her what she DESIRES He rose
to his feet, and was about to ques-
ton her, when she exclaimed, TO
think of the likes of men being in here
and he being at large in the wur-r-ld.'
This was the first and last performance

OUTLOOK FOR LOWER INSURANCE.

In the matter of the water supply we
do not see why the rate of insurance
should be increased because of an in
sufficient domestic pressure unless 1t
can be shown that the lack
of that pressure increases the
risk of loss from fire. 1t seems that
when there is a fire the pressure is
ample. The engines have all the water
they want. That is the testimony of
the chief of the fire department. and
his statement is not contradicted. 1t
may be that there are buildings which
are equipped with apparatus for ex-
tinguishing incipient f1res-particular-
ly fires on the upper floors. There must
be very few of these. however, and it
is probable that such buildings have
other means provided for getting wa
ter in the event of a fire on the upper
floors than those provided by the city
According to the superintendent of
the water works there is a sufficient
domestic pressure maintained all the
time, but it is not apparent on the
third floors of all buildings because
such buildings are not connected with
the new water pipes. II this is the
cause of the lack of water on third
floors Of some. dwellings and business
houses it would seem as if steps should
be taken at once to have these build
ings connected with the new pipes, II
such connection is possible, and If it
is not, then pipes that have become
practically useless because of the cor
rosion that has taken place in them
should be replaced with new ones.
There is no use of continuing to pay
the Is cents addition to the rates or
even the 25 per cent. increase if it is
possible to have these insurance bur
dens removed. The figures show that
the insurance companies had a regu-
lar picnic in this city last year, car
rying away more than $4,000 in pro-
fits. 1t is evident that the authorities
are disposed to do all they can TO COM
ply with the requirements OF the in
surance companies, but when they
have complied they want the rates
which the city is entitled TO.

The great reunion of the United Con-
federate Veterans came to an end in
New Orleans on Friday in blaze of
glory. 1t is risking nothing to say that
it was one of the most largely attended
and successful reunions ever held by
the organization; and, with sadness, 1t
must be added that in all human prob
ability nothing that will approach it in
numbers will ever be held again. With
each succeeding year the veterans of
the greatest civil war the world ever
saw are crossing over the river in in
creasing numbers. They have arrived
at that age when men are called old
and must die. II is now nearly forty
years since peace was proclaimed be-
tween the North and the South, hence
even those who went into the army as
boys in their teens are now grey-hair-
ell grandfathers, while the mature men
of the sixties have doubled their years.
But, while the veterans are passing,
/. must be a source of unalloyed pleas
ure to them to witness with what affec-
ton they are held by the people of the
section for which they made such no
BILE sacrifices.

UNSATISFACTORY IMMIGRATION

The sentiment Is growing in pretty
nearly all parts of the country that
the class of immigrants we are get
ting now is far from satisfactory. 1t
is a totally different class from that
which we got in the decade from 1880
to 1860 or in that from 1880 to 1890. In
those decades the great majority of the
immigrants went to the West and took
up land. In the course of a very few
years they became thrifty farmers and
their descendants are among the best
citizens of that section.
The immigrants that are coming now
are seeking the great cities of the
East. They are going to eenters of
population that are already overcrowd-
ed. New York, the towns of Massa-
chusetts and New Jersey and the min
ing section of Pennsylvania are get
ting the most of them. Those who go
West stop, as rule, in Chicago. OF
course other Western towns get a
small percentage of them.
1t is estimated that the total of the
arrivals at the port of New York this
year will reach $4,000. Italy furnishes
more than any other country and Aus
tria-Hungary comes second and Russia
third. Italians, Slavs, Syrians and
Greeks are coming in steadily increas-
ing numbers, and they are crowding
into sections already congested. They
are making trouble. The italian Ia
borers who were employed on the sub
way in New York are on strike EN-
ployes in many branches of skilled and
unskilled labor in that city are waiting
in idleness for a settlement of their
demands. In Chicago there is even a
worse state of affairs. Many cities are
overcrowded with a class OF immigrants
who help to make trouble.
Our immigration law is far from sat
isfactory. The Commissioner OF Immi-
grafton, in recent article, pointed
out the particulars In which II ought
10 be amended. But the amendment
that n most needed Is one that would
discourage the coming OF the class Of
immigrants that Is proving 70 be 70 OBJ
