Preiudiced AGAINST Typewriters.


The late Associate Justice Cray Of
the Supreme court was very eccentric.
Among his prejudices was a deep and
lasting aversion for a typewriter That
machine did not come into general use
until Justice Gray was an old man and
he never became reconciled to It, 1t
made him furious if a lawyer filed
with him a motion or other court pa
per typewriter. He invariably re-
turned it with a brusque request that
the matter TO be submitted be written
in longhand. He had a stenographer
at his disposal, but never utilized his
services, as he wrote all his letters as
we'll as his opinions. He notified the
clerk of the Supreme court not to send
him any typewriter paper, no matter
how important it might be. He never
neglected an opportunity to denounce
typewriters. The result of his hatred
fer these machines was that he did
three times as much work as the other
justices.

But the "bestaid plans of men and mice"
are always going wrong, and when you least
expect it.
One lovely summer morning the church door
stood WIDE open to admit the sweet.scented
air and the songs Of the BIRDS when / heard
a quick little pit-pat coming up toward our
pew. / knew well enough who it was, and
shut the pew door quickly, hoping she would
go quietly out. But she did not. She only
gazed at me reproachfully a moment, and then
began careful investigation of the pew door
directly behind us. Finding it ajar, she forced
her way in, jumped up on the seat, and the
next instant gave bound over my shoulder
and landed on the seat beside me, where she
sat looking as wise as an owl, and with a
satisfied air, that seemed to say to US that she
was not to be SO easily circumvented.
After a little while she got down on the
floor and began to grow uneasy.
We were dreadfully afraid she would bark
or howl to get out, as she was in the habit of
doing whispered to my brother to open
the door. l hoped she would 60 out and go
home.
He did so, when, to my horror, she walked
deliberately up to the reading desk, where the
minister knelt, blissfully unconscious of the
sharp little eyes that were looking at him
SO intently.
She must have recognized her good friend
and playfelow, for she turned and trotted
quietly out OF church.
We had just begun to breathe little more
freely. when back she came, and in her mouth
a good-slzed stone.
She trotted around by the side,of the kneel-
ing. minister, and, in full view Of the congre-
CATION, laid the stone down and stood waiting.
The minister read on. Dido gave him a
gentle shake. He moved the folds Of his gown,
and still quite unconscious Of the intruder,
calmly continued his deyotions.
The smiling congregation were waiting and
watching TO see what would come next
Dido was very patient, standing with her
little head on one side. Two or three times
she moved the stone nearer; but still no mo-
tice was taken Of her or her Offering.

She was graceful little Skye terrier as

having stone thrown as far as any one pos

deer and bring it back, lay it down at your

be thrown again, and 80 she would repeat the
performance, as long as she could hnd any
one to throw it for her
The pastor of the little church near us was
very fond of Dido, making her 60 through
with all her tricks for him. They became
very great friends, and whenever she saw
him she used to bring her paw up to her
head and salute him in the funniest manner.
We took great care on Sunday morning to
shut Miss Dido up very securely, for We had
no notion Of letting her follow US to church.
