A LAWYERS GOOD ADVICE.
Intending Litigants Would Do Well
to Heed It,

One of the old practitioners at the
Osceola (Mo) bar tells this story of
the good counsel which a lawyer in
that town once gave a client:
Shortly after the firm of Nesbit &
Ferguson hung out their shingle an
old farmer called upon them in regard
to a land suit. Some of the parties
at issue were not residents of the
state and IL was necessary to notify
them by publication. Ferguson took
down a blank and began to fire ques-
tions at the farmer at great rate,
which the honest old fellow proceeded
to answer after weighing carefully
each word The blank having been
finished and put in pigeon-hole, the
client asked what it was.
That is the advertisement com
manding the non-residents to appear
and defend the suit
And how much will that cOst?"
"My friend" said Ferguson, calmly,
looking the old man in the eye, "if
you are going to figure on the cost
you had better stay out Of lawsuits. -

When We are particularly anxious
to annoy Weston at the club we have
only to start discussion on spirit
ualism. Sometimes if one of the
juLiOr members has to be punished
for cheek we tell him tall spiritualis-
tic yarns and advise him to go to
Weston for their verification. This
has much the same effect as sending
a boy to a saddler to buy strap oil.
Not SO many years back Weston
was an enthusiastic spirtualist him
self, attending seances and even
writing letters to the local press on
the subject. But he was cured some
what rudely and in a manner likely
to make a lasting impression on any
man.
You see it was this way: About
five years ago. when Weston was at
the hight of his spiritualistic zeal, a
widow with very pretty daughter.
reputed to be worth small fortune
of 81 800 year. took house on the
outskirts of the town. Weston fell
head over ears in love with Daisy,
though, greatly to his chagrin, she
seemed to prefer the attentions of
young chap in the Office of firm
of solicitors who held the Office of
clerk to the magistrates. Weston
was continually at Miss Daisy about
spiritualism and tried to get her
mother to bring her to some of his
precious seances. But she refused to
have anything to do with them, and
l believe it was this silly fad of his
which put her off Weston. Any sane,
sensible man, seeing how the ground
lay, would have dropped spiritualism
and gone in for little reality-Daisy
was worth dropping something for,
can tell you-but where spirits were
concerned Weston was just mad, and
1t only made him more determined to
prove to her that his theories about
second sight and SO on We're correct
l remember that winter we'll 1t
froZe for three weeks on end. Wes-
ton used to take Daisy out skating on
some flooded meadows near the sta.
ton, and things seemed to be coming
to head. He wore his heart quite
openly on his sleeve and was ready
to lick her shoes for love. but the
other chap, who just at this time
came out of his articles and got a
partnership in the firm, was making
the running pretty hot. There had
been lot of men thrown out of work
by the cold weather and some ugly
stories were afioat about burglars,
footpads and the Ike. Mrs. Hardy's
little house. away out by itself, seem
ed a sure mark for gentlemen of this
sort, and Weston was never tired of
warning her to keep the windows
bolted, and even induced her to have
a special new lock put on the front
door
After the frost we had snow,
fortnight of it, and the whole town
got pretty well showed up. Weston
did not seem himself about this time.
I remember we remarked upon it at
the club. Perhaps his second sight
told him some crisis was at hand.
Any way, it came. 1t was one We'd

Washington, March 17.-President
Roosevelt thus far has not received an
invitation to visit the Hawaiian Islands
while on his western trip. 1t was said
at the White House this afternoon that
while an opportunity to visit the Ha-
waiian Islands would please the presi-
dent immensely, it would be impossible
for him to do go on his approaching
trip without disarranging the entire
schedule. That, it was said, is abso-
lutely impracticable. President Roose-
welt hopes at some future time to graf
ify the desire of the Hawaiian people
and his own wishes to visit the islands.

tonight called off all sympathetic
strikes ordered as result of the strike
in the Townsend-Downey Shipbuilding
company's yards at Shooters Island.
This decision was recommended by the
Civic Federation as the first step in the
direction of arbitration of the differ

the company This arrangement does
not change the status of the carpenters
and machinists, members of the Marine
Trades council, who went out on a
sympathetic strike to help the boiler
makers in that yard.
