one at that, was given at a public
meeting in Falun. Herr Fahlerantz,
the chairman of a. Stockholm commune,
lectured on Common Sense He ar
gued at length and referred to several
lawsuits to prove that. technicalities
generally weigh more in the courts
Of Sweden than the simple idea OF
right and wrong. Several OF the law
yers of the city were present. The
oldest of them, Won Koch, the chair
man Of commune, rose and criticized
the lecture in strong terms, branding
it as an accumulation of pa1pable in
accuracies and false conclusions. Herr
Fahlertnatz made a lengthy reply,
which was received with tumultous ap-
plause. then Herr Won Koch left the
hall in anger using language which
was intended to reflect unfavorak!F
OF the speakers character. This cpl
sode caused a great stir in the city.

other new member is Judge War Afse.
Illus, a prominent legislator and one Of
