MUST ACT AS DIRECTORS.

To carry out the business plan Of organi-
cation the law requires all the judges TO
meet together once a month, except in Au-
gust, and 10 constitute themselves board
OF directors In shaping the AFFAIRS or the
court Just as a board OF directors acts ID
controlling the policies of a corporation.
The chief justice is chairman Of these meet
ings Questions OF practice and procedure
arise and are discussed then votes are
taken; henceforth the entire court is bound
70 follow the rule or order prescribed by
the majority IN the voting. II II appears
that several Judges have made different
rulings on some question Of practice the
majority Of the judges decide what the
proper ruling IS and afterward there is uni
tornity Of ruling.
Suggestions for better and speedier ad-
ministrstion Of Justice are made at the
meetings and approved or rejected. Rules
are made 10 govern the entire court and TO
govern the clerks and bailifrs departments
as wei. The judges here investigate COM
plants against any employe Of the court,
against policemen. against lawyers who
may be accused Of unprofessional or dis
honest conduct in suits. and against the
judges themselves. Here, TOO, they decree
discipline
After the Judges. acting as e board Of
directors, have mapped out a policy or
adopted a general order" the chief justice

thirteen branch criminal courts, presided
over by ten judges. Excepting two, which

these are distributed among the city's main

Chief Justice Olson has absolute power
over the assignment of the judges to all
the branches. He shifts them about as
often he thinks the administration of
justice may be Facilitated thereby. In each
criminal branch each Judge is usually able
to dispose of the business arising there; IL
he is not. surplus cases are transferred to
a Judge who has less to do In the civil

among the various Judges by the clerk.

to draw from in the order in which the
cases are written down.
Thus every judge is kept busy. his call Is

that the quarrels Of friends in the lat

ciled. A wound in the friendship of
young persons, as in the bark OF
young treeS, may be so grown over as
to leave no scar. The case is very diff.

be accounted from the decline of the
social passions, and the prevalence OF
spleen, suspicion, and rancor, towards

EXPLANATION OF THE CREOLE
English Writer at Some Pains to Make
Facts Patent to His
Readers.

] have used the word creole" To
the average Englishman I imagine It
conjures up visions OF a dark and
beautiful woman gloriously appareIed
and with large proportion of colored
blood In her veins. 1t is necessary to
get that idea out Of ones head at the
very beginning, as 1t Is a wholly mis-
taken one. The first and essentia,
claim to the title Of creole is that one
should be of the purest European
blood; the second, 80 far as the West
Indies are concerned, is that one
should be native of the islands.
IF Queen Victoria had happened to
be in Trinidad when her eldest son
was born. King Edward would be a
creole. The word simply applies to
two things-parentage and birth. You
may be an English creole, a French
creole, a Spanish creole; but you can.
not be a creole II you are born in
England or France or Spain. even
though your ancestors had been born
and bred in the West Indies for gen.
erations. The one thing which is i'm.
possible In a true creole is exactly
what the ignorant think the word i'm.
plies-that is, the least suggestion OF
negro blood.
Please remember. then, that the
true creoles are as white as you are.
and that those OF the upper classes
have nearly all been educated in
France or England; and that If YOU
meet one in a London drawing room
and expect wells and nose rings and a
tangle Of barbaric Jewels you will be
grieyously disappointed They are
