Costly Law Robes.

An English judges outfit in the way
of robes imposes a heavy tax upon the
newly appointed judge, although the
cost is not nearly SO great as it was
in the early days of Queen Victoria.
Then 1t was the custom for the law
luminaries to attend court functions
in figured damask silk gowns, Will,
costly lace bands and rutfies. Thesi-
ger, celebrated legal di.nitaly of
that day, Is said OH one occasion to
have spent f10O on bands alone. The
lord chancellor's robes cost something
like ESQ, and even n judges stockings
are an expensive item. The wardrobe
of. judge costs anything from f5O0
to fG00 and If the newly fiedged "lny
lord" is. attached to the kings bench
division he will require five gowns. a
girdlc. scarf, a casting hood, n-black
cap, three cornered cap, a beaEer

bands and two full court suits, swords,
etc. TO keep up thesmajesty of the

A Spanish War Criticism.


When the Spanish war came upon
us Commodore Dewey was ut Hong
kong. The navy department had sent
him no preliminary orders. He didn't
know anything about the ultimate pol
Icy or what the ultimate plan of cam
paign would be. The navy department
didn't itself know. Dewey should
have moved two or three days sooner
than he did, and two or three days
sometimes are vital. But our Wash
ington officials were only aroused to
the necessity of giving Admiral Dewey
an order by Il cablegram from Dewey
informing them that the British gov.
ernor of Hongkong insisted that our
feet must leave there We were so
dazed by the immediate cxigencies of
war that the English government had

Then our Washington authorities is
sued an order and not till then. They
told Dewey to proceed to the Philip

code, which, literally translated, read:

The golden house" of Nero seems
from all accounts to have been the

built for u mortal man. Even If we
regard the ancient descriptions as
somewhat exaggerated II remains one
of the largest royal houses ever built,

have been incomparably magnificent.

to have been entirely within the walls.
