or. A more limited note in a legal way
Milburn gained when he argued before
the court of appeals the case of Roland
b. Molineux, then under conviction as
q murderer, now free man.
Mr.. Milburn has been suggested as an
acceptable candidate for governor Of
New York, though the suggestion fell
into innocuous desuetude when it was
discovered that both his tall sons were
being educated in Oxford university,
where both were members of college
boat crews. He is assuredly a man of

much more widely known to the pub
lie through his connection with yacht
ing, and especially with the America s
cup races.
One reason why New Yor.. lawyers
are little known as personalities is
their growing dislike of court appear
ance. Daniel Webster and Abraham
Lincoln pleaded many cases before jul
ries. The New York lawyer of to-day
sits in his Office and plans; if a case
is to be presented to court he engages
a special pleader. There is more than
one reason for doing this. If the case
is won the client is satisfied with the
means. If it is lost, the distinguished
lawyer says: my dear sir, we have
neglected no reasonable precaution;
we engageu special counsel, etc." Re-
sponsibillty for failure is thus divided.
Add the fact that litigation plays a
much smaller. part in the greater law
yer's business than it used to do, and
the reluctance to appear in court is ex-
planned. Again, the inevitable court
delays are wearing upon the patience
of a man who can command his
juniors.

The snuff boxes are in the keeping of
the sergeant at arms of the senate, who
buys on an average five pounds of snuff
a year to keep them filled, and they are
replenished twice every week with as
much regularity as the senate is called

boxes was Turner, of Washington, who
retired from the senate last March. Be-
fore him Carter, of Montana, was an oc-
