A PERTINENT QUESTION.
The Senator Thought the Story too
Good to Keep.

The Senator Thought the Story too
Good to Keep.
Hannibal Hamlin, for many years
a United States Senator from Maine,
and Vice President during the Civil
War, was wont to tell the following
story ON himself: An Englishman by
the name OF Pearson, while passing
along the main street In Bangor,
stepped In hole In the sidewalk,
and, falling, broke his leg. He
brought suit against the city for
$1,000, and engaged Hamlln as coun-
sell
Hamlin won his case, but the city
appealed to the Supreme Court. Here
also. the decision was for Hamlin's
client.
After settling up the claim, Ham
lin sent for his client and handed
him dollar.
What's this?" asked the English
man.
That's your damages. after taking
out my fee. the cost OF appeal and
several other expenses, said Hamlin.
The Enghshman looked at the dol
lar, and then at Hamlin. What's
Fthe matter with this" he said; is 1t
bad ?--Tit-B fH '0ti@

but the hull appeared to be In Its nor

their passage money again and dsem-

The main hog-chaln, the capt In ex-
