Poynter is a mental dwarf by the side of Judge llayward, and will hick several votes of over becoming gov ernor of the great state of Neb;aka. The New York Sun has discovered that the Nebraska democracy is only an "unconsidered appendix of the populists," it is also vermiform, and its uses are not known at the present writing. Bill Paxton, of tho stock yards, is said to be delighted with Poyn tar's nomination; he was in touch with Poyuter when that gentleman was a member of the st ite senate, and known where to find him if any stock yards legislation were attempted. Some of the populists of this county aro urging William Murfin to make the raco for congress in this district.

The Nonchalant Canton Merchant. Frequently on entering a Canton shop you will find its owner with a book in ono hand and pipo or fan in tho other snd wholly absorbed in his studies. You will bo doomed to disappointment if you expect tho smoker to start up at once, all smiles and blandness, rubbing his hands together as he makes a shrewd guess as to what he is likely to take out of you and receiving you with obse quiousness or with rudeness according ly. Quite the reverse. Your presence is apparently unnoticed unless you happen to lift anything. Then you hear that tho fan has been ar rested and feel that a keen eye is bent on your movements all the while. But it is not until you inquire for some ar ticle that the gentleman, now certain that you mean to trade, will rise with out bustle from his seat, show you his goods or state tho price he means to 6ell at, with a polite yet careless air which plainly says, "If it suits you, we make an exchange. " "Through China With a Camera. " Her Idea of It. "Journalism For Women," a book recently published in England, relates a story of a woman journalist in the north of England who wrote to a Lon don paper for permission to act as its special correspondent during the visit of some royal personages to her town. The editor of the paper, knowing her for a good descriptive writer, gave the neces sary authority, with explicit informa tion as to tho last moment for receiving copy. The moment came, but not the copy, and the editor had to go to press without it. The next day, no explana tion having arrived, he dispatched to his special correspondent a particularly scathing and scornful letter. Then came the excuse. It was long, but the root of it amounted to exactly this: "I was so knocked up and had such a headache after the ceremonies were over that I really did not feel equal to tho exertion of writing. I thought it would not matter. " In a Bad Way Anyhow. George Ober once overheard some ac quaintances in the hotel lobby at Has-tings-on-the-Hudson discussing the de mise of one Bill .Tones, a well known character in that lively country village OLer immediately joined the group, whereupon tho following conversation ensued : " 'Did I understand you. to Bay Bill Jones was dead?'

A barrister's fees are small, and they mre always paid, in advance, and the. turn is recorded under the title of the irief. A friend, who has a large practice showed me hi i feebook yecWviiiiy. lhe largest item was guinrae, which is less than $200. The average was about $50. Fees uro reguluted by the bencher-, of the inn :ccording to the si ivice per formed, and no contingent tecs are al lowed. A barrister may accept a case for nothing or return the fee in cases oi" charity, but ho cannot without violat ing his oath, directly or indirectly, ac cept any greater compensation for a legal service than is allowed in the regular schedule fixed Ly the b nehers' of his inn. If he docs so, he is debarred from practice. It is a comnjou custom in America, for a lawyer to undertake a suit for the recovery of damages or a claim of any kind with a contract that he shall re ceive a certain percentage of the amount, of money recovered. In England t;ueh an act would be considered disreputa ble, and any barrister found guilty would be expelled from his inn. The fees are regulated by the amount ol" time and labor required, and net by this amount of money involved. A barrister may receive a lee of $250 in a case in volving only 500, and he may receive a feo ot $26 in a case involving i.000, 000. All legal business originates with so licitors. They bring to tho barrister's office a case all prepared after certain form and written in manuscript. Tht British courts do not permit typewrit ing. The solicitor requests the banistej to Undertake the case, and the fee is marked plainly upon the brief If thft barrister does not care to iir-dci take the labor for the nmouut of money allowed or for any ether reason, ho advises the solicitor to go elsewhere. If he accepts the responsibility, the solicitor lea.'es the amount of the fee in coin with the brief, so that the barrister has his pay in advance. This is the almost invaria ble custom. The only exceptions are iii. cases of close friendship between tho olicitors and barristers and where thert is a large amount of litigation ii which both are involved. Then it in customary for the barrister to make up his bill at the end of the month or tho end of the quarter, but the feo in each case must j.-cvertheless be written upon the brief and recorded in the bookn of the court. It is customary, also, for the solicitor to leave a fee for the barrister's clerk at the same time, which must be a cer tain percentage of that paid to the bar rister. Wheu you dine at a hotel or a restaurant in England, it is customary to tip the waiter an amount equal to 5 per cent of your bill ter the s;;ii-' na tion.
