London. June 25.-James M. Beck solicitor general of the United States, addressed the benchers of Gray's Inn today on the subject of the United states supreme court. Mr. Beck is an honorary bencher
 Tracing the origin and outlining the procedure of the court the speak CT pointed out that it's great power Ito curb legislatures and executives and therefore majorities, by resort to the paramount will of a written con- stitution has been exerted for ovei lso years and while not infrequently the party whose power is thus crushed has vented its wrath and disappoint. ment upon the supreme court, vel after the thunder of political deoate has passed and the earthquake o' party passion has spent it's force, the still small voice of the supreme cour' has always prevailed,

of the den Mr. Bear was rolling and ciawing and kicking. His struggles carried him all over the place. once when he fopped towards Mrs. Bear and the children they had to back through the door in hurry, to get out of his way. For Mir. Bear was a heavy person Being bumped by him was never a joke.
 When Mrs. Bear crept into her home again, she discovered the cause of her husbands strange actions. The big snapping turtle, which she had brought home to him while he was asleep, had clamped his jaws upon Mir. Bears nose. It was no wonder that MT. Bear rolled, and howled, and fought to rid himself of the rep tile.
 Be quiet a moment, Ephraim" Mrs. Bear called. T can't help you while you're threshing about in that fashion. Just lie still and give me a chance to get hold of him."
 MT. Bear managed to stop his struggles long enough to let Mrs Bear seize the turtle But when she began to pull, her husband howled louder than ever. He even struck a1 Mrs. Bear and drove her away. He was afraid she and the turtle to- gether would snip off the tip of his nose"
 Why. Ephraim" she exclaimed T was only trying to help you. Don'' you want me to drag the turtle of your nose?"
 NO. No! No!" screamed Mir, Bear
 But you don't intend to leave hin there, do you?" she asked in amaze ment..
 No. No. Nol" screamed MT, Beal again. But when you pull on him 1t hurts me still more.'
