STORIES OF LAWYERS.
Amusing Anecdotes of Celebrated
English Barristers.
Blackwood's Magazine.


.'Apropos of witnesses and counsel,
think the most scathing retort that ever
read was the following, which 1 saw in
some country newspaper report OF an assiZe
case: A counsel had been croSS-examining
a witness for some time with very little eff
feet, and had sorely taxed the patience of
the Judge the jury and every one in court.
At last the judge interviewed with an i'm
perative hint to the learned gentleman TO
conclude his cross-examination. The coun-
sci, who received this judicial intimation
with a very bad grace, before telling the
witness 10 stand down, accosted him with
the parting sarcasm: Ah, you're clever
fellow, a very clever fellow We can all see
that! The witness, bending over from the
box, quietly retorted, Il would return the
compliment-if L were not on OATH! -
Another story Is told in the same article
of Edwin James, famous barrister who
was disbarred for unprofessional Conduct
just as he was about TO be made solicitor
general Edwin James was noted for his
consummate impudence- At one time he
lived in some West End chambers, for
which the unfortunate landlord could never
succeed in obtaining any rent. At last he
had recourse To an expedlent which he hoped
might arouse his tenant to a sense OF his
obligations. He asked him IL he would be
kind enough 10 advise him on q little legal
matter In which he was concerned, and, on
James acquiescing, drew UP statement
specifying his own grievance against the
learned counsel and asking him TO state
what he considered the best course for a
landlord To take under such conditions. The
paper was returned To him the next morn
ing with the following sentence subjoined:
In my opinion, this is n case which adj
mits OF only one remedy: Patience.

with disastrous effect on the jury. Shortly
after his appointment as a puisne judge he
was trying a burglar in some country
town. and by way OF mitigating the tedium
of the proceedings summed up something In
the following fashion: You will have OBJ

crops have been harvested, without plow-

The writer successfully planted several

back TO to inches, thus protecting tho
plant from being "heaved" out. and from

PITCHER DOHENY MAD
NOTED BALL PLAYER NOW CONFINED
IN A LUNATIC ASYLUM.
Felled His Nurse with q Poker and
Then Held NeighbOrs and PO-
icemen mt Bay.

ANDOVER, Mass, Oct. n.--After telling
his nurse with a terrific blow over the head
with stove poker, Edward Doheny, the
Pittsburg National League baseball pitcher.
for more than an hour to-day, armed with
the same weapon, held score of neighbors
and several policemen at bay. Finally he
was overpowered, and after examination
by two physicians was adjudged insane
and committed to the asylum at Danvers.
The nurse, Oberlin Howarth, is seriously
hurt. but 1t is believed he will recover.
Doheny first showed signs of insanity sew
eral weeks ago. when he suddenly deserted
the Pittsburg club in an Ohio city while
laboring under the delusion that he was
being pursued by detectives. After a few
weeks rest at his home here he rejoined
the team, but did not regain his old form.
When he returned home at the end of the
season Doheny was a nervous wreck, and
since that time has been constantly under
the care of a physician. When DIR. Conroy
called at the house yesterday Doheny in
formed him that he did not need his at
tentions any longer and insisted that the
daily calls be discontinued. At first DIR.
Conroy looked upon the matter as joke,
but Doheny proved that he was in earnest
by ejecting the physician from the house
by force and warning him not to return.
Howarth was then engaged to give con-
slant attention to the case, and during the
evening the patient was quieted and slept
peacefully all night.
To-day, while Howarth's attention was
momentarily attracted in another direction,
Doheny sprang from the bed, and, seizing
stove poker, struck the nurse a terrific
blow over the head and started to smash
things right and left. His wife hurried to
the neighbors for assistance. When they
returned Doheny, dressed only in his night
clothing, stood at the open door OF the
house with the iron poker and defied them
to take him, threatening to kill the first
man who made the attempt. For more
than an hour the mailman held the crowd
at bay, but finally Chief of Police Frey and
Policeman Mills caught him off his guard
and oyerpowered him.

CINCINNATI, Oct. 1.-THE Cleveland
American League club won the series from
the Cincinnati National League club to-day
by taking the second game of the double
header, making it stand six to four for the
Ohio championship. By great batting in
the first game Cincinnati tied the score in
the eighth inning and won i'm the ninth
after two outs. Raglan was a puzzle up to
the eighth inning in the second game and
the Cleveland team could do nothing with
his curves. 1t was so dark after the sew
enth inning that the players could hardly
see the ball. and this was responsible for
Cleveland winning. The spectators lighted
their score cards and held them up and
swarmed the field Umpire Hurst
would call the game. He absolutely re-
fused and the policemen pushed the crowd
back and the game proceeded to the eighth
and ninth innings, in which Cleveland got
all their runs. Scores:

Another Idea.
West Manchester Tribune,

West Manchester Tribune.
While driving through the country q
few days since, our attention was called
to a special feature in the way OF raising
sheep and fattening for the market Oh
serving a large corn field with all the bot
tom blades stripped from the stalk and the
ears remaining. we very much wondered
why such was the case, but soon observed,
quietly at rest, a large flock of sheep, per-
haps $50 in number, in the midst OF the
corn. The particular gentleman who owned
the sheep being a weli-to-do farmer We at
first thought IL quite waste TO turn sheep
into a field of standing corn, but further
thought revealed the fact that il was just
the thing, as the sheep tear down but
a few stalks. The ears are thus left and
can be gathered afterwards If desired. BY
the time field of corn is thus cleaned up
the sheep are in fair shape for market at
a very little outlay in money, as the blades
would otherwise be wasted.
We think this would be good plan for
many OF our readers to follow, and give
this TO you for what il is worth.

Neither EIeven scored.

One of the best-played football games so
far this season was that of the Y. NJ. LIS
and Northwesterns, OF North Indianapolis,
on the grounds at Twenty-fourth street and
Paris avenue The game was holly con-
tested from start TO finish, neither side
scoring. The play of Udell, OF the North
westerns. at right end, was an especial fea-
ture. The work OF Gillock and Lee, also OF
the Northwesterns. was highly creditable.
The Y. NJ. i. team distinguished itself by
good all-around playing. large crowd
was present and there was much enthu-
siasm. No accidents or mishaps occurred.
The Northwesterns still challenge any 144-
