How Emrnons Became a Judge.

During the term of Governor Robinson
vacancy occurred in the judgeship of
the East Boston District Court, and one
of the aspirants was the rising young
attorney, William H. Emmons. Mr.,
then member of the Legislature and a
stanch Republican, called upon the gov
ernori in the interest of the young lawyer,
and the governor suggested that he and
his protege call in later and he would be
pleased to talk the matter over.
Subsequently Mr.. - and the judicial
aspirant paid their respects to the gov
ernor, and few days later Mr.. called
to see what impression his protege had
made. He found the governor in one of
his most jovial moods.
Grasping his hand warmly, the gov
ernor said: "Mr. -, your man EN-
mons may know Blackstone, but for
heavens sake haven't yougot any better
fed lawyers in East Boston,"

GOOD" English.

In the course of his often tedious but
always enlightening essays on English
style, now running in Harper's Maya
zine, Professor Lounsbury refers to the
sorrows which Sir Walter Scott was
forced to endure from the criticism of his
sonin-law, Lockhart. Never a new
| story came forth from Scott's pen that
failed to be censured for its bad English
| and worse taste by the critical son.ir-
law. Though the dear old baronet was
a cheerful out. of-d0ors man, who could
| stand hard knocks, the constant bad
! gering worried him, as he records in his
diary: -. G. L. points out some sole
| clsms i'll my style" writes the brave old
romancer, "as amid for amidst, and
| Scarce for scarcely Whose he SAYS,
IS the proper genitive for which only at
such times as which retains its quality
| of impersoniGcation." One has more
than an impersonal JOY in learning from
| so high an authority as Professor Louns-
bury that i'll every one OF the contentious
Scott was right and Lockhart WIS
| wrong.
This setting up in the business of criti-
cising is not q noble calling at best. No
matter il it applies to religion or farm
ing, the real test Of work is it's fitness for
the purpose designed. No new house
was ever built in Maine without its be.
coming focal point FOR carpenters and
architects who clustered about for the
purpose of ccnsuriug the design or pick
ing flaws with the details. The slope Of
the root is too steep ornot steep enough
The front door does not face the right
way. The finish is too ornate or too
plain. The piazzasare unccuth ard lack
ing in comfort. A residence constructed
upon small lot was designed to be
placed in the midst Of ample grounds,
and vice versa. No matter how famous
the designer and constructor were, they
have bOtched the job past remedying.
And the literary critic IS even worse.
There are purists in language who spend
their lives in carrying standard works of
literature about in their pockets for the
sole purpose of hunting out errors in Eng
fish or in taste. Ali of US know of such
persons. Their desire for absolute perfec-
ton has become a mania. Dear old
Goold Brown wrote mammoth "Gram-
mar of Grammars, in which the glaring
errors in English we're taken from famous
textbooks on our language The late
George P. Marsh, whom most Of us re-
we're for his painstaking endeavors to rec
tify style, was quoted by Grammarian
Brown for pages and censured unspar-
ingly. Some one has defined the critic as
man who, being unable to do good
work himself, devotes his energies to pull
ing apart the work of others.
To our keen qualification Professor
Lounsbury takes sides with the writers
of bad English, and with those who con-
vey bright ideas. He contends that it is
not the carriage, but the man who rides
in the carriage, that interests humanity.
Shakespeare crowded his plays with
abominable grammar and faulty style,
but a perverse generation continues to
read Shakespeare, and will continue to
read him in spite of the critics.-Bangor
