MODEsTY OF JUSTICE WHITE.

Edward Douglass White. the new
chief jnstice of the United States |.
one of the most modest of public OF
flcials, This lack of self-aggrandize'
ment is strikingly illustrated in al
innovation in the procedure OF the
highest court, decreed by the new
chief justice.
Since time immemorial it has been
the rule Tor the baliff OF the court to
announce, impressively. when the nine
members Of the tribnnsl filed into the
room: The honorable The chief jus
tice. and the associate justices OF the
supreme court of the United States. !"
When Chief Justice Fuller died and
Associate Justice John A. Harlan, as
senior Judge, acted as presiding mem
Der of the bench, the baliff was in
st-ucted TO make this saluta.ion
"The honorable the supreme court
of the United States" since at that
time there was no chief justice.
As soon as Judge White was chosen
presiding justice court attaches called
his attention to the fact that he should
order the balm TO resume the time
honored formula of introducing the
audience 10 "the chief justice and the
associate justices OF the supreme
court The new head of the court
refused. He is reported to have stated
that he liked the simpler statement
and didn't care to have il changed 10
call attention to himself.
And so il happens that the bailiff
violates tradition by his daily an
nouncement, and precedent and ira
iition are awful things 10 violate at
he supreme court. Modernity hasn't |
Fei succeeded in dispelling the ancient |
habit OF having quill pens !
part Of the furnishings of the court I
chamber. although there Is conces-
zion in the shape OF few small steel I
,ens and penholders for real use.

THE IMPORTS
into BRAZIL
The United States The Best CnS-
toner thai Country Has

Atlanta. Ga, March l6.--lnforma-
ton obtained by the Southern Rail-
way company from the United States
bureau OF manufactures, shows that
during the six months ended June
30, 1910, the total imports into
Brazil OF manufactures , OF cotton
amounted TO sS,l9G.4l5. while the
imports from the United States into
Brazil OF the same articles amounted
TO only $245.265. or only 30 per cent
of the total. While the imports from
the United States into Brazil OF man
ufacturcs of cotton for the period
named Increased S4l.639. or 20,4 per
cent over the same period OF the
previous year. s245,265 seems very
small In comparison with the total
Imports OF these goods into Brazil.
II will thus be seen that Brazil
offers splendid field for healthy
expansion OF the export cotton goods
trade and the favorable geographical
location OF the southern mills with
reference to the Brazilian market
would seem TO give them special adj
vantage.
In this connection. Il may hot be
generally known that the United
States Is the best customer Brazil
has. The total imports into the
United States from that country
average about 100000, 900 per year.
while the exports from the United
States 10 Brazil average less than
sso.ooo.ooo per year,

AZ car STORY.

i A remarkable eat story comes from
Lancaster, Pa. and is vouched for b.
the Philadelphia Press. Last sum
mer the family of R. w. MADDEN, a
well-known Pennsylvania railroad en-
gineer. Went to Sea Isle City, N. j., to
spend several months. taking along
the family pet, a big maltese cat
named Minnie. Friends who visited
them by the sea brought a number of
children. who received the attentions
usually bestowed on the cat, and the
animal gave unmistakable signs of
Jealousy and resentment and finally
disappeared. Al the close of Sep
TENDER the MADDEN family went back
to Lancaster mourning the cat as gone
forever. They had advertised in the
newspapers, but nothing came OF ii.
This week the family heard familiar
scratching at the kitchen door, and
when it was opened in bounded big
maltese cat, which ran straight 70 the
chair on which Minnie had always
slept. The lost had returned, as was
proved by peculiar markings on the
face or tail. From Sea Isle City to
Lancaster, as the crow flies or cat
walks. is l37 miles. over which Minnie
had come home. How she crossed the
Delaware at Camden. whether she
beat the ferry boat company out OF
fare or crossed on the ice, can never
be known. In all the wide range of
It's gleanings about cats did Dumb |
Animals ever beat these adventures

Doesn't Want a Mixture.
Kinston Free Press.

kinston Free Press.
Give us free trade. il you will. from
the north pole to Yucatan; but give
us no mixture OF free trade and pro-
lection. The truth of the matter is
that revenue duties-sufficlen to raise
necessary money for the requirements
OF the goyernment--only should be
imposed, and both free trade and pro-
lection should be tabooed All impor-
,ations. unless under special circum-
stances. should help bear the common
burden Of taxation. And the burden
should be distributed as equitably as
possible; for in cases of unequal dis
tribution there will always be log
rolling and a disgraceful scramble
for the most favored place. And the
American consumer must pay the bill.

TWO hundred or so new members
in the French chamber Of deputies
are up in arms against the sea OF elo-
quence among their elders, Their
chief reason seems to be that they
have not yet got in a word edgeways
since the day they were returned,
and not one of them has yet succeeded
in firing of his maiden speech. one
of them, therefore, proposed a time
limit for speeches, such as exists in
some pariaments of the old world,
lie Is generous enough, however, six
times more so. indeed, than the fran
ers of rules at some labor congresses.
He proposes TO allow, not ten, but a
maximum Of sixty minutes to every
speaker per day. This seems a fairly
wide margin Still, II might prove an
irksome restraint upon some mem
bers, like NJ Jaures. for instance.
Some one has calculated that he holds
the record for pacific eloquence in the
new parliament. The speeches made
by him from last June 10 few days
ago reach total OF fiftythree and
half columns OF the official reports. or
over 10000 words

GENTLEMEN AT BOTH ENDS
Money Affair With Which the Statute
Of Limitations Had Nothing What
ever to Do.

4 we'll known Kansas banker told
story the other day about the stat.
ute of limitations There is smile
to It, plus some good philosophy.
one day an old southerner walked
into the bankers Office The south,
erner was a typical gentleman OF the
Did school; suave. courteous to the
point of punctiliousness and honorable
to a degree of martyrdom
What can | do for YOU" asked the
banker
Well" replied The southerner
about IS years ago ! loaned man
down south some money-not very
big sum. ! told him whenever |
should need it would let him know
and he could pay me the money. |
need some money now, so shall let
him know, and should Ike to have
you transact the business for me"
My good friend replied the bank
pr. you have no claim on that money
You can't hold that man to that loan.
You say It has been IS years since
you loaned It to him The statute
Of limitations has run against that
loan years and years ago
Sir" replied the southerner, "the
man to whom loaned that money is
a gentleman The statute of limta-
tious never runs against gentle
man"
So the banker sent for the money
And within a reasonable time there
after the money came There was a
courtly gentleman at the other end Of
the transaction, also.-Kansas City
