A Witty Reply.

Whenever the United States supreme
court on hearing the argument of coun-
sci for plaintiff in error is entirely
satisfied that he has no case the chief
justice is apt TO say to counsel for de-
PENDANT In error that the court does
not care to hear further argument.
At one time Hon. Matthew Carpenter,
from Wisconsin, was counsel for
plaintiff In error and opened the case.
Before he was through the court was
satisfied that there was nothing in it,
and so when he had concluded and
counsel for defendant in error arose
Chief Justice Waite said, 'The court
does not care to hear any further ar
gument."
Counsel for the other side vas a lit
tie deaf and, although noticing that the
chief justice spoke, did not hear what
he had said and, turning to Mr. Car
penter, who sat beside him, asked
what had been said.
"Oh, hang itt' replied Carpenter in
tones audible to the bench. 1.-The chief
justice said he would rather give you
the case than hear you talk"

dents Of Eureka, in competing for a
prize in waltzing at a ball in Virginia
City Friday evening, Dec. 0, overtaxed
her heart action with dangerous and al.
most serious results. The Reno Gazette
gives the following account of the all
but fatal prize waltz:
At a dance in Virginia City Friday
evening there was a prize waltz, and 90
vigorously did a young lady waltz for
this prize that she nearly died from the
effects Of her strenuous exercise. This
young lady. Miss Celia Tonkin, and her
partner, Fred Nichols. were among a
few couples picked from the crowd of
contestants to waltz a final time for
the prize, the number of walters being
gradually reduced until only a few of
the best were left. Miss Tonkin and
her partner had waltzed from the be-
ginning Of the prize dance and Just be-
fore the prize was awarded Miss Tom
kin swooned from her efforts. She was
carried to a dressing room and was
there attended by a physician, and it
was nearly half an hour before she re.
gained consciousness. She was for a
time in grave danger of dying, the
strain of dancing having weakened her
heart; worst of all. she did not win
the prizs.
Her ply sicians now state that she
will never be able to dance again with
out danger Of dying.

three times q week
Leave Eureka Mondays, Wednesdays
and Fridays at 5 .. m. Arrive ct Ham
