LAWYER ARRAlGNS FORMER AM
BASSADOR BEFORE BAR
ASSOCIATION.
DEMANDS HE BE 0USTED
Choate is Charged With Being Guilty
of the Violation of the Constitu-
ton Of the American Bar Associa-
ton and Unpr 0 fe ssional Conduct

CHATTANOOGA Charges that Jo-
seph II. Choate of New YORK, Tor
mer ambassador from the United
States to Great Britain, has been
guilty of the violation of the con-
stitution of the American Bar asso-
citation in failure to uphold the honor
Of the profession of the law, and
petition that he be expelled from the
association were presented to the
American Bar association and re-
ferred to the committee on grieV-
ances.
The charges allege Mr.. Choate has
violated the confidence Of his ell
ents, James r. Watts and wife; that
he has violated the canons OF ethics
of the American Bar association; has
been guilty of divers and many Of
fenses in violation of good morals
fair dealings, and has brought dis
honor and disgrace upon the Amerl-
can Bar ASSOCIATION.
The first charge has to do with
certain litigation intrusted to MI.
Choate and his associates. 1t is al
legged the petitioner had large and
valuable coal business in the year
1884, and made a contract with two
men by the name Of Weston. 1t is
alleged that the Westons guaran-
teed to Watts certain prices for coal
and that the contract was worth
about 100000. 1t is claimed the
colIiery preached its contract, coal
ceased coming and left Watts in a
precarious business situation. In
1885 Watts engaged the Choate firm
to bring suit for $4,000. The Pc
tition alleges that not long after
ward he was in the office OF Mr..
Choate and overheard by accident a
conversation between Mr. Choate and
an attorney, in which this attorney
offered Choate's trial attorney
$4,000 to compromise the case.
Mr.. Watts now says in his petition
that he believes his lawsuit was
sold out, or thrown away Only
nominal damages were granted, the
sum being 6 cents.
Mr.. Choate is also taxed with the
alleged failure of his firm to account
for about $1,000 collected by a re-
ceiver for the sale of certain bust
ness.

guarantees a fulfilment of the terms
of the national agreement for the

Brussels Sprouts.

These are next to the caulifower in
delicacy and easier to grow. They
form in many small heads about the
size of an English walnut on the stalk
of the plant, to prepare for the table.
The little heads are blanched first,
after which they may be served with
any kind of sauce or be simply sauted
in olive oil or butter. To blanch them
remove the wilted and yellow outer
leaves from the little heads or sprouts,
then having removed the stalk close
to the head, soak the heads in cold
salt water for an hour. Drain, cover
with boiling sailed water and cook
rapidly for Is or 90 minutes until ten
der. Be sure and have plenty of wa
ter for this cooking Drain in col
ander, throw cold water over them
and drain again. They are now ready
to reheat in butter or be simply sea-
soned with salt, pepper and butter or
to be reheated and served with sauce.

A suspected sample of ground cof-

any one else. The others may de-
Tend the "tail' by moving about, keep

should be broken it is equal to the

person must become the catcher while

the line.

Progressive Puzzle Party.

The requirements for this party are
children to make four at table, as
many tally cards and pencils as
guests, a box of stars for markers or
punch and a couple of prizes, more
If the hostess wishes.
Often enough puzzles may be Dor
rowed or they may be bought. For
very small children sliced animals
and sliced birds will be popular.
There should be as many puzzles as
children. Some times the puzzles are
given as prizes, then each guest takes
home one. All these arrangements
each individual hostess must decide
for herself. The tally cards may be
made at home from colored cardboard
cut in the shape of an Interrogation
mark. Number each one at the top
and place corresponding numbers on
the puzzles. For instance, the players
who have number 1, 2, 8, will take
puzzles marked /, 2, 3, 4, and go to
head table which will be marked num-
Der 1. Those who draw 5, 6, Z, 8 will
take puzzles marked the same and GO
