A Rebuke to Lawyers.

Judge John D. Lawson, Dean Of the
Missouri University Law school and
president Of the State Bar association,
in his address at Kansas City, before
the annual meeting, severely rebuked
lawyers for the delays Of justice which
grow out Of our present system of pro-
cedure. 1.-THE machinery of the law, ~
said Judge Lawson, "has become
rusty, and we find its drivers badly
trained and often incompetent to
manage 1t. An examination of all The
decisions Of u supreme courts during
the past decade was made a short
time ago by a New York lawyer, and
the legal profession was startled TO
find that in nearly one-half of the
cases which were reserved and sent
back for another trial, it was not
because the judgement below was
wrong on the inertia Of the case, but
because Of some error in procedure
BAG workmanship in running the
judicial machines.
what would we think if other pro-
LESSONS and trades did as badly as
this? II, for example, one-half Of all
the concerts given in this country had
to be gwen over again because the
musicians were out Of tune or had
negligently played the wrong piece, or
one.balf of the boots and shoe made in
u factories had to be made over
again because of defects in them which
made them useless, or one-hslf of al
the trains which lett the Unior
station here had to come bsek after {
whole days u because they haC
started out on the wrong track.
"The civil courts are greatly il
advance of both the Bar and Legisla
ture in e%ndeavorlng to diminish delay
Lawyers every day are employed, no
to obtain justice, but to delay it. Civ
courts, however, are not created 70
that purpose; they sit TOR the benefit o
plaintiffs, for if there was no plaintiff
there would be no need for courts, ant
the courts have very little to do with
those things which cause most of the
delays in administering justice. The,
are certainly not responsible for tn
mistakes Of lawyers.

alt was the hand Of Paul Jones that

that carried the flag defiant and tri-

North sea and into the Irish sea; yea
into st. Georges channel-not merely
boarding the lion in his den but COM

With indesputable trophies-witb

STRUCK BY LIGHTNING.

The home of Anton Szymanski, 726
Lincoln Ave, was struck by lightning
yesterday afternoon during the thunder
storm. The bolt entered the roof and
coursed downward, causing ruin to
both outside and the interior of the
house, which will cost sew eral hundred
of dollars to repair. A large strip of
siding was torn off, the boards and
stJdding timbers shattered and shingles
scattered over the yard. On the inside
the plaster and lathing was ripped off
the walls and a bedsJead was denol-
ished
Mrs. Szymanski and one of her
children were in the house at the time,
her husband was off at work and the
other children were IN the barn. Mrs.
Szymanski and the or Id with her were
stunned by the shock and did not
regain their senses until some time
after One of the neighbors, who
witnessed the destruction, feared a fire
would result and turned in a fire alarm,
though the services of the fire company
were not needed. Judging from the
wreck which resulted it seems strange
that the occupants of the house were
not killed by the bolt.

GAS PLANT CHANGED HANDS.

The Wausau Gas Light and Coke Co.
has changed hands, ID. l.. Plumer hav-
ing disposed of his large interests to
Albert E. Smith, of Milwaukee, and
those associated with him, who are said
to be Illinois capitalists. Mr.. Smith is
cousin of Clinton Smith, of this city. The
purchase includes the gas works, mains
and all the rights heretofore held by the
company and the handsome new build
ing at the corner of Fourth and Jeffer-
son streets. MIR. Plumer will, after
May LIST, occupy the rooms, formerly
used by him as offices, in the First Ma
tional bank building, designated as
rooms 5 and 6. Mr.. Smith has been
trying to get hold of the Wausau gas
plant for the past fourteen years, and
now that he has succeeded no doubt
feels very good over it, John Farrell,
who has been manager and superin-
tendent for many years, will remain in
the same position under the new man
agement, which fact all will be much
pleased to learn. The name of the
company will remain the same, Wau-
sau Gas Light d Coke Co., and it is
understood that the extensive improve
ments contemplated by Mr. Plumer
will be carried out by the new owners.

SHOT AT GIRL.

Herman Meyer is the name of fell
low arrested at Stratford that from all
accounts is deserving of large and
copious quantity of severe punishment.
The man has beer boarding with John
Bauer and sixteen year old daughter,
Anna, who live out of the village in the
town of Day. Last Tuesday afternoon
during the absence of the father the
man attempted criminal assault upon
the daughter and brapdished a shot
gun to brighten her. The girl did not
brighten but picked up a coffee pot
from off the stove and threw the hot
contents into Meyers face, and thor
ran to neighbours house. Meyer
pursued her and it is alleged raised the
gun and fired at her. The ends of the
barrels were filled with mud and luckily
for the girl the one fired exploded and
caused no harm.
When Meyer arrived at the neighbours
house he gave up the chase but amused
himself for time in calling the several
women who were present, all kinds of
foul names. For this he was later
given severe beating by one of the
lady's husbands, and a warrant was
sworn out for his arrest, on serious
charge and he was brought here
Saturday he was taken before Justice
j. G. Curtin, at Stratford, and was bound
over for trial He was unable to furnish
bail and no doubt will stay in Jail until
his appearance in court.
1t is said that Miss Bauer's father and
Meyer were chums, have often got
intoxicated together and that the parent
has not and does not now show any
resentment toward Meyer for his actions
with the girl. The girl states that
Meyer on several occasions has made
indecent proposals to her, and it is
quite likely that the sentence he will
get will be none too severe for him.
Hubert Cordell, near Edgar, got an
arm shot off last fall and was sentenced
to fifteen years in prison for like
offense, and the punishment was
considered light.
