A DRAMATIC CLIMAX.
Effect Of One Woman's Pathetic Eye.
Upon a Jury.

James t. Brady. who was one OF
New iork's greatest lawyers. was once
counsel for u young woman in u case
involving an attempt 10 break a will.
His client sat by his side. She was
very beautiful young woman. whose
eyes seemed always to rivet the attcn
ton OF those upon whom her glance
fell. There was a pathetic expression
which affected every one She sat
watching the jury during the course OF
the trial, and at last there was some
complaint that she was attempting by
means Of her glances To excite the
sympathy OF the jury.
Then Mr. Brady arose aud In one
OF the most touching and beautiful Of
all the addresses he ever made in court
spoke OF the blessings which every one
who had an appreciation ~ beauti
full things and could see them enjoyed
and dwelt for some moments upon the
happy lot OF the jury who could see
the budding Of the flowers it was
then springtime-and the charms of
nature. Then. suddenly turning 20 his
client, he said. THAT blessing g. denied
my client. for. though she has eyes
which seem to look upon YOU. gentle
men. there Is no vision IN them for
her sight has been taken from her"
She had been. in fact ,dc victim of
total paralysis Of the optic nerve
which had not impaired the beauty OF
her eyes. but had given % them that
singular pathetic expression which She
was thus falsely charged with en-
ploying that she might secure the sym
pathes OF the jury.
