It Is good to know that all legal pro
ceedings are not Of the "Jarndyce
versus Jarndyce' type. bound to ii-
efficiency by yards of red tape, but
that the ear of the law can stoop to
hear the claims Of child, and the
arm of the law to protect with ready
directness the interests Of little
street boy. The report Of the Juvenile
court of Denver, Col. gives an in
stance that is worth quoting.
One duy in busy civil session of
the court, which was trying Il will
case involving two million dollars, the
/ courtroom door opened and a boy
poketl in tOusled head and freckled
face. The court officer "shOeed" him
/ out. but lie returned secure In the
knowledge of his rights there.
The Judge ordered recess Of three
minutes. to the disgust Of some of the
distinguished counsel, and the boy
| came to the bench.
He was newsboy. He said that
he was having trouble; that for two
years policeman OIL the beat had
let him sell papers on a certain corner.
and now. as he expressed IL, "a fly
guy" had taken his place, and because
he was new cop, he thought he
owned the town." and had ordered the
boy of the favorite corner, thereby
making him lose fifty cents day.
The Judge did remarkable and un.
usual thing. Considering that the boy
had a case as important as the one
before the bar concerning the millions
that a dead man had left behind him
for surviving selfshncss. he held up
all proceedings while justice was done
to the little chap of the streets.
| There is often a rich kernel of right
In little thing. A principle Of justice
is no bigger when 1t applies to rich
peoples money than when It concerns
Il poor boys pennies. Injustice might
have driven the boy out OF honest
business. It might have impressed in.
delibly upon him resentment against
the law and n contempt for II. That
is one way bad citizens are made.

PROFESSIONAL CLUES MEETING.
Rev. Fr. carmody Speaks on The I'M
niuration Question,

The last meeting of the Professional
club for this season was held I'm the
Brooks house Monday evening, the oc-
casion taking the form of ladies
night" After supper. served at
o'clock in the dining room, an excell-
ent paper was given by Rev. NJ. j,
Carmody on the subject, Our Recent
Immigrants. The speaker treated his
topic under two heads "a Immigra-
ton at present excessive. CD If un-
desirable or dangerous what test
should be applied TO separate the
wheat from the chaff? He gave sta
tistics showing several southern states
could receive million people year
for 10 years and still be thinly popu-
lated as compared with the north and
that the country could add 200, 100000
to it's population and then not be as
thickly settled as some European
countries. Certain classes of people,
he said, are always opposed to immi-
grafton and have not discriminated
between good and bad but have stig-
matized whole races as undesirable or
dangerous. Father Carmody held that
people who take that attitude invari-
ably get the reputation of mischief
makers rather than friends of the COM
munity, The people of the United
according 10 his opinion, are
unique race and none of the elements
which go to make it up can boast a
of good citizenship.
The speaker than said that on ac-
count of certain conditions and
changes among the European people
and dangerous acquis-
tions would be made TO our population
but he did not venture TO suggest what
sort of check could be employed to
minimize the evil, thinking neither the
or educational test adequate
because neither is a guarantee of the
qualities necessary for good citizen-
ship In closing Father Carmody said:
Il think we need little larger chari-
Iy, broader tolerance and more sym
pathetic altruism in dealing with the
stranger. and realization Of the fact
hat we have received no special mis-
sion and are not engaged to any great
extent in breeding saints or angels in
America"
The address was followed by an in
eresting discussion participated in by
