ATTORNEY SURELY A WONDER
But Old Darkys Admiration Must
Have Been Embarrassing Under
the Circumstances.

In Alabama they tell of prosecut-
ing attorney who was so uniformly
successful with his cases that he be-
came both the terror Of evil-doers in
the vicinity and the admiration of all,
especially the dusky portion of the
population.
Upon his withdrawal from office he
was at once sought out by those
charged with crime. Much to his dis
gust. the first two cases that he de-
Tended resulted in the conviction of
his clients. An aged darky, named Joe
Clinton, who had watched his prosecu-
tons with wonder and who looked
on with equal amazement now he con-
Quoted the defense, met the attorney
just after his second defeat.
"Mistah CAL" said the old chap, in
awed tones, "yo' shore is wonder.
