The Doctors Story.

1t was Sunday morning in summer.
All was peace and quietude. There
was sunshine after a fortnight o.
dreary weather. The fragrance o
flowers was over the land The wife
of the resident physician OF the aims
house had given year to teaching
the harmless insane how to sing. This
morning the result was to be given to
the world.
The whitewashed assembly-room Of
the insane was transformed this Sun
day morning. The money of the rich
who made of philanthrophy cult, and
the flowers of those who loved all hu
manity, depraved or diseased, for the
dear Christ's sake, had made of this
place bower.
The imbeciles sat in rows on large
plat form waiting for the organ music.
They were dressed in white. Some
were nervous and detected, others were
gigling and dying their neighbors
as they saw come into the room pau
per whom they knew. Some of the
paupers in the room looked on with
glet; others with contempt. A few
elegant women with their maids were
eyeing the scene with an enthusiasm
born of we'll dong, The doctors, keen
eyed, eager, watchful, were sprinkled
through the audience. The head
nurse was talking to a distinguished
nerve specialist as eminent in letters
as in medicine. Leaning against the
wall was brain surgeon of interna-
tional repute; over in a corner loungcd
a man who knew more about insanity
than the insane could tell him
The resident physician was in his
adjoining office talking to nurse. He
kept his eyes shifting to and from a
bent woman who sat by the window.
Her face showed pair Of weary eyes,
beyond weeping, and as she lifted her
veil for a moment a mouth of unusual
melancholy.
In few MINUTES Il lovely woman
in the last Of her twenties. came
through the door from the room where
the paupers were singing.
"You want me doctory" she said
and greeted the ductor's sister who
stood near.
Eyes, sent for you," the physician
said, 'to tell you story He con-
tinued after a pause: "rhey say that
you are proud and cold Miss Carter,
as we'll as the most-sought-afte wom-
an in society, but Alice and | know
better than that" including his sister
with half-turn Of the head "This is
a beautiful Sundly morning; you
mis- ht have heard sermon had You
stayed in there, but insteal l want
you to hear story. God grant that
it may end with benediction," he
added in prayer half under bis
breath.
81 want to tell you a story of this
lady who sits here,' he went on: ut
won't take long, and you will be inter

who was appointed in 1881, is the
giant of the court, measuring 6 feet 4
inches in his stockings. Mr.. Justice
Harlan is almost as tall, and both are
proportionately well built. The chief
justice, who is the smallest man on the
bench, appears diminutive when stand.
ing between them. The other asso-
ciates on the left of the chief justice
are Justices Brewer, Shiras and Peck
ham; on the right Justices Brown,
White and McKenna.
That these men have not reached
their exalted position at single bound,
and that they pay. increasingly, a high
price for their prestige, is evident to
the most casual observer. Few men
work harder, or for longer hours, than
the justices OF the Supreme Court.
Every litigant, however humble, can
be certain that, though years may
elapse before bis case comes to trial,
he will have upon it the opinion of ev-
cry one of the justices. Every Satur-
day night the chief sends his messen-
ger to the homes of his associates TO
deliver sealed envelopes containing
the cases in which each is to write
opinions. Each, after hearing the ar
guments, studies the cases individual
ly, and on conference day all join in
discussing them.
The duties d responsibilities
which constitute these men a "court
of last resort" make them known, of.
ficially, to the entire country. Their
taste and personal qualities are to
much smaller degree the property of
the public; for, contrary to republican
usage in general, the dignity that
hedges the justices officially operates
also as barrier to their households.
Though the Executive mansion, the
Cabinet residences and the homes and
boarding places of the Senators and
Representatives are all, on some occa-
sions, accessible to the public, the
doors of the Supreme Court circle, in
common with those Of the diplomatic
corps, rarely swing open to either the
socially ambitious or the mildly Gu
rious.
Without exception the justices are
profound students, and several of them
are well-known to be fonder of the he
roes of history and literature than Of
the men of today. They have little
time for recreation, and still less for
leisure. The cheif justice finds his
highest pleasure in his own home, sur
rounded by his children and grandchil-
dren.

it. Slowly she drew the veil back
revealing first the mouth, then the
weary eyes; it was the face of the dear
old lady who had made her underwear
from childhood.
"Oh, you poor, suffering-oh, my
mother!' cried the girl as she dropped
to her knees and gazed at the woman
with tear filled, imploring eyes.
ooh, my child, this is all wrong!"
cried the woman. cit is the doctors

ury and comfort. Oh! it is cruel to
have told you-forget it, forget i,!''
The girl drew the needle SCARED,
but still aristocratic hands down from
the half-blind eyes.
"Forget it?" she cried, as she caught
her mother in her arms, II have just

him, is dead. But. 1 am rich, do You

people, instead of being one of them;
We shall never know a sorrow. Oh,

be so good to you.'
The mother took the y oung face
between her hands and dwelt upon
every line and i,aluie. Then, My

ooh, l am SO happy!'' cried the girl,
as she bent over the worn old wedding
ring and kissed it between her sobs.
And from the hall ca me the voice

T. V. Powderly, formerly commits
sioner-general of immigration, tells a
story that was repeated to him by one
of the inspectors.
1t appears that certain German
immigrant, just after landing in this
country, became very friendly with
the inspector in question. As he re-
NAMED in New York, where be was
employed by one of the big hotels, he
visited from time to time the inspec
tor, who had put to him the usual
questions upon his arrival in New
York.
When the period of five years resi-.
dence in the United States requisite
to the obtaining of naturalization had
passed, the Teuton sought out his old
friend, the inspector, with inquiries as
to what steps it would be necessar y
for him to take to obtain his citizen
ship papers.
So his friend gave him the necessary
advice, and, in spirit of friendliness,
promised to go with the German to
the judge to whom application for nat
uralization was to be made.
The interrogatives were asked,
among which was:
"You have read the Constitution of
this country?'
"No, your HONOR" responded the
German, stolidly; "no l haf not read
der Constitution; but my trent Klaus
he haf read it to me. Und I Wish to
say dot l liked it fiery much. 1t is
ferry nice your honor, und l fiery much
pleased nit it!''
The judge granted the necessary
papers.
A Missouri paper tells OF a man nam
ed Jones, a newcomer, having deposit
ed 500 in the preachers salary box
one Sunday recently asked why he
had been so generous and he said be
had just engaged in business in the
town and he wanted to help along the
cause. Then the preacher announced
that he would surely patronize Mr..
Jones, and be asked all the congrega-
ton who would do likewise to stand
up. The whole congregation arose,
and the preacher asked Mr.. Jones
what his business was, and he replied:
II am saloon keeper Some Of the
good brethren and sisters almost fell
dead. The shock was simply awful.
