AP0L0GlzED TO JUDGE STANTON.

Brairerd Dispatch: The case of
Barnard Bros. VS.. the Northern
Express company, involving the
seizure of fish by the state while in
transit, went to the jury about 10
o'clock this forenoon. The case has
been closely contested throughout.
Judge Stanton delivered an
impressive charge to the jury, one
of the notable features being his
reference to a remark of Attorney
Polk, for the plaintiff, to the effect
that all the judges, county attorneys
and legislators in the state carried
passes in their pockets. Judge
Stanton called the attention of the
jury to the fact that this was now
prohibited by. law and stated that he
for one knew that he enjoyed that
same privilege as the jurors of walk
ing up and paying his little two cents
per mile when he wanted to travel.
Attorney Polk arose and begged the
pardon of the court, saying that he
meant to have stated that this was
the case in the past.

turn, and gentleman sitting next to
me, who did not know the identity of
Mrs. Felkin with Ellen Thorneycroft
Fowler, began to descant on the way
young authors spoil themselves with
tricks. To emphasize his point he said,
What can be more horrible than Miss
FoWler's trick of saying Everybody
laughed"' There was dead pause
he evidently expected me to make re-
marx for when I did not speak he
turned and said: oh, don't you know
Miss Fowler's books? Haven't you
