Talked Like One.

During his long career as a lawyer
Secretary Shaw gathered a large col
lection of incidents grave and gay.
One of his stories is of young lawyer
who was opposed to a veteran Of the
bar in an Iowa court. The young man
addressed the jury first and in doing
so took occasion to initiate well-known
mannerisms of the other, such as adj
justing his cuffs, stroking an imagin-
airy imperial, etc. This caused con-
siderable laughter in court When the
veteran rose to reply he did not ne
glect to so through the preliminary
motions with even more deliberation
and precision than usual He bowed
to the judge and to the jury and then
began: "Your honor and gentlemen
of the jury, that young man acts like
good lawyer, but he talks like
blamed ol"-Brooklyn Eagle.

between several skillful politicians
concerning the absence of orators in
the New York delegation in congress.
