Legal Ethics.

An illustration az 10 tho growing ques-
ton OF legal ethics, comes from Massa-
chusetts that is worth considering.
man named Blondln was convicted OF
numbering his wife and sent to the penis
Tertiary for life. Since his conviction he
has confessed to the murder. His counsel
condemns the confession. declares that 1t
has defeated his hope OF securing o par
don, and adds that he knew before the
trial from tho confidential statements Of
his client that tho latter was guilty.
There is the question OF ethics A law
yer knows from his client that he is
guilty OF sordld and unjustlAable muir
der Ie does not contine his defense to
seeing that the forms OF law are fully
compiled with In the trial and convict
ion. He fights the case through on the
pretense Of innocence, and when the trial
is over, preserves the expectation OF Sc
curing pardon on nm alleged doubt OF the
guilt which he privately knows to be be-
yond doubt. Is that good legal ethics?
Certainly, II the theory that the law
yer is an officer OF the courts, and con-
trolled by the purpose OF seeing that JUS
tice is done, there should be a positive re-
form in the practice that permits 40 OK
IRENE procedure OF tho business Of

~ box is received by post In il is
the following assortment of rub
bish: A chip of marble, bit of cork. a
diminutive brass tube, a withered tu-
lip flower, a splinter of green glass, ten
cloves and eighteen hemp seeds. From
this Harvey Crook, amateur detective
and diamond hunter, deduces the fol-
lowing message: Give up that won
derful diamond, the Green Eye OF Goo

kay, on the 18th of the month. You
viii make the transfer at the Marble
Arch station of the London under
ground railroad. Failure to follow these
explicit directions will result in a CORY
death for you"
Now, this is only one OF the incidents

terry, The Green Diamond" but GER
tainly the imagination that is able to
conjure I'D such a riddle as the
foregoing deserves a reading for
its startling Pigments 1t may
be improbable that a young Eng

rebus Of an Indian sign-message
such as this; it may be impossible that
any right-minded Indian could expect
other than a member of his race to de-
ciIher his blind communication; but the
