Stories Of John Briqht.

John Bright was supposed to be a
total abstainer, but once when Ed
ward Mall was very nervous at the
prospect of having to make an impor-
tant speech in the house Bright said
well. Mall, if l were you I'd for
once go and have a pint of cham
payne"
Mr.. Mall did as he was told and the
result may be judged from the nara
tors comment that champagne on
an unaccustomed interior is not al
ways a curative or tonic"
Bright rarely had any difference
with his WIFE" but occasionally they
were not at one about the children
When they came to a point of abso
lutte disagreement he used to say:
Now, | tell thee, if thou doesn't dc
what l wish Ill go straight to Mr.
Gladstone and ask him to make me a
knight" to which the answer invari
ably was:
"Oh, anything rather than that"

A POISON EPISODE.
When a Famous Chemist Was Silenced
In Court by Judge.

In Court by a Judge.
There was a famous poisoning case
in England many years ago in which
tie strong point of the defense was to
show that the accused. who was an
expert chemist. would not have used a
poison which could be so easily found
after it had been taken into the hu
man system. Sir Robert Christeson.
professor in Edinburgh university. a
famous expert on toXicology. whose
works are still standard on that sub
! ject. was put on the stand to prove
this point. When he declared that a
chemist would certainly use some poi
son which would leave no trace. the
prosecuting attorney asked him if be
meant to say that there were such
poisons
Sir Robert replied in the affirmative
The prosecutor asked. Name them
Mo- shouted the judge. Il forbid
you to answer that question:
In spite of the protests Of the prose
cutor the judge would not allow the
expert publicly to give the name of
poison which would leave no trace.
and the question remained unan-
swered.
Now comes the curious part of the
story. During the next two years Sir
Robert received more than 1900 let
tiers from all parts of the world ask
ing, begging. offering to buy. the name
| Of the untraceable poison alluded to in
his testimony. Many of these he kept
as curiosities. showing them to his
friends as evidence of the depravity of
| human nature. Some of the excuses
for wanting the name of the poison
were very ingenious. One man was
writing q novel based on a poison plot
and wanted to make use of the I'M
traceable poison idea. He did not
want to give the name of the poison in
his book. but just wanted to have it
| by him in case any scientific critic
should deny the possibility of such poi
sons. when he could send him the
name in private letter and quote the
distinguished authority" from whom
it came, etc. Several persons profess
ed to be studying chemistry and asked
professional courtesy. To all such Sir
Robert would send the advice to pur
sue their studies and they would soon
know as much about it as he did.
Many offered large sums of money for
the secret. usually pretending they
had bet still larger amounts that they
could find it out in a given time and
were willing to share their profits lib
orally with Sir Robert
The thing which most impressed Sir
Robert was the number of persons ali
over the world who seemed DESTROYS
of possessing the secret of an agent
that would kill, but leave no trace. and
the amazing falsehoods to which they
would subscribe their names in order
to obtain the information. 1t is said
that whatever poison Sir Robert had
in mind at the trial he never mention
ed it, not even to his classes, so strong
~ was he impressed with the danger
of letting such thing become matter
OF public knowledge.
