JUSTICE PAY SMALL
Supreme Court Jurist Harlan
Admits Debt.

Washington, Feb. 25.-That Justice
Harlan of the United States supreme
court has never found the profession of
jurist remunerative enough to enable
him to catch up an $1,000 deficit
occasioned at the time of his marriage
in 1856. was the interesting statement
made TO the appropriations committee
of the house during its hearings on the
sundry civil bill. by Albert Rosenthal,
Philadelphia artist.
Mr. Rosenthal has partially complet-
ed a collection of paintings of former
members of the supreme bench and
has offered the collection to congress
for purchase. He was asked by a
member of the committee if he had
made any paintings at the personal
solicitation of the justices.
Il have not been paid by any OF
them" said Mr.. Rosenthal. They all
told me they were too poor to buy
them. Justice Harlan said: I would
like to have that portrait, l borrowed
81 900 when | was married. and every
year since when | fix up my accounts
for the year, | find | still owe that
81 900 They are all too poor to buy
them. Justice McKenna wanted tc
buy the one of himself, but the price
was too high"
