DSOr.E AND SEPItUW
Justice Hrowor is a nephew oi Justice i
Flela , nnd this Is the first time In our his .
tory that on unclekmd nopliew have over boon
on the supreme bench at the same tlmo An
extraordinary vein of legal brain must have
existed among the ancestors of the
Flold family Here is David Dudley
Field , for years ono of the >
greatest lawyers in Now York , Stephen J.
Field , is on the supreme bench , and has been
a Judge for moro than a gouerotion Hrowor ,
the son of Fields sister , makes a reputation
In Kansas as a lawyer and comes to the supreme
promo bench or , his merits
Justice Hrowor was born In Smyrna , and 1
it Is a curious fact that Justice Stephen J ,
Flold spent a part of his boyhood In Smyrna
His sister married a missionary , and at thir '
teen years of ago sbo took her brother with
her to Asia Minor Hrowor did not romuln i
In Asia long enough to have bis skin tnnnod I
by the tropluil suns , and when ho was a i
squawking baby of eleven months ho was i
brought baok to Ainenoa Hoth ho and i
Justice Field studied law with Divld Dudley
Field In New York , und wont west to urao-
tlco.The
The two mon hnvo no features In common , ,
Justice Field is ono of the finest looking mon i
in publia life , and Brewer is also fine look
ing but of n different typo Justice Flold [

with a Dlaok velvet oap upon his hood upon i
the bench , Ho has a high forehead , a full 1
beard of sable silver , and his face is ono of t
the most classic on the bench Ho Is six :
feat tall and his great frarao Is symmetri

He has broad Ideas as to the future of this
country , ncops himself abreast of pubiio
qucstious and Is fond of society His wife Is
one of the noted outertaincrs of Washington ,
and tbo two live together In linn old house
across the park from and facing the capital ,
I dent know much as to Judge Fields
wealth His brothers are millionaires , but
the justice once told mo that bis salary was
not suuiclont to pay bis expenses > ,
and ho referred in this to the
immense cost of the traveling
expenses of n supreme Justice
: Judge Field crosses the continent once or
twlco n yenr , and ho always pays his faro

The oldest justice on the bench In point of
servlco and ono of tbo nblcst Jurists in public
life is Justice Miller Ho is six feet tall ,
weighs at lonst ' "JJ pounds and overv molecule -
culo of his anatomy is backed with good
sonsc , good nature and Judicial ability Ho

velvet cap on hi ? head at the right of Chief
Justice Fuller he forms ono of the classic
features of the court Ho could have re
tired years ago , for ho is over so\entV. He
likes his work , however , and does not in
tend to become n nonontlty Judge Mlllor

Salmon lChnso died it was thought thut ho
would bo made chlof Justice Grant , however -
over , appointed Wnlto nnd Justice Miller lms
outlived him nnd seen n new man take his
bluca upon the boiii-h. Justice Mlllor
is said to bo well to-do. Hu is worth
n hundred thousand or so Ho lives
very nicely on Massachusetts avenue , nnd
his brick house Is on a high terrace Just op-
uosltu that of Judge Lamar Judge Miller is
n good talker Ho has as many reminiscences
ns you will Und In Ben : Parley Pooro's books ,
nnd his good sayings frequently go the rounds
of the c mltol Not long ago , In speaking of
ono of the most upright senn'ors , hosiM :
"My dour sir , I like you , nod I want to say
that u are ono of the few politicians who
in my onion stun ) n chance of being saved
Hut the good word ' wont bo crowded with
thorn , " he added ns he shook lib sober old
head ' "It wont bo crowded "
Justice Mlllor was boru In Kentucky sov-
onty-four years nco Ho was educated at an
academy , and ho was especially strong dur
ing his sohooline in mathematics and gram
mar Ho is probably the only man on the
bench who is not a college graduate , but ho
is notwithstanding this a tlno Latin scholar
and he mnstcrcd this lunguaca himself Ho
began life ns a drui : clarli nud studied modi-
clno nud practiced eight years before ho decided -
cided to become a lawyer Ho was thirty
years old before ho was admitted to the bar ,
and when hu was nppointod on the supreme
bench ho was unanimously confirmed by the
seuato without his name being referred to
any committee Ho is n sclf-mado man all
over , and ho ought to bo proud of his Job
JUSTICE llUUlLEr
Justice Bradley is another self-made man
His father was a poor farmer in the interior
of New York and young Uradloy's earliest
schooling was that of a oountry teacher Ho
worked in the summer and went to Bchool in
the winter until ho was sixteen , nnd after
this bo taught country school and practised
surveying His ambition to bo great sprouted
with his bolng , and a story is
told at Albany how a citizens of that place ,
when young Bradley was doing soma rather
menial work , for him , asked what ho in
tended to do in life The future justice was
then hardly in his teens Ho was backward
with bis answer nnd said ho hadn't quito
mode up his mind whether ho would bo presi
dent of the United State or justice of the
supreme court This Interested his employer
nnd bo talked further with the boy He
found him wonderfully well Informed and ho
urged him by all means to gel it college edu
cation if possible Judge Bradley saved
onoucrh from his cunntry school teaching
to send himself to college and ho
graduated at Hutger tn 1SJ1 nt the
ago of twontythieo Ho practiced law
ut Newark , N. J. , for thirty years before he
wont upon the bench and ho has been serv
ing us a supreme court justice lor twenty
3 car s. His decisions appear in forty vol
umes of the supreme court and ho has a most
wondurful Unowlcdgo of English and Ameri
can decisions Justice Uradloy has a re
markably unalilical mind and , ho is one of
the most skillful mathematicians of the
present day Ho amuses himself in working
out geometric problems for recreation and
ho delights in getting up calendars showing
at what hour the moon will rise on January
dr February 3 , 3030. He likes to figure out
the day of the week on which tbo June 1 , for
instance , will occur for a thousand-odd
years or so , and ho thinks in figures The
origin of his mathematical tastes came from
bis fathers library Though tbo old man was
a poor charcoal buruor on a scanty farm he
had alotof historical and mathematical boohs
and young Uradloy conquered algebra with
out a toacbor In the intervals of charcoal
burning His mccbunlc.il and mathematical
knowlcdgo comes in excellently well now
It makes hiin especially strong In patent
cases , which constitute about ona-llftb of tbo
supreme court business , and his fifty years
of working at tbo law bad made blm able to
know by Intuition what the law ought to bo
Judrro Urndloy is rich Ho lives auietly at
Washington , and bo has one of the finest
libraries of the capital Ho is a little dried
up anatomy of a man not much over 5 fcot
0 in height Ho has a big nose , sharp bright
Ilttlo eyes , iron gray hair and a pair of
tightly-closed lips His skin hangs in wrin
kles , und all of Ins fat has long since gone to

seven years old , but thcro is a fair chance
for his lasting at least twenty-three years
lontrcr Thcro is not much of him to die ,
und when his soul is dlsombodlcd it will not
be much frcor than It is now
JUSTICE QUAY
It Is different with Justice Gray who is
ever six foot , and who hardly dares to go
into a Washington parlor which is not dou
ble-floored. Gray is broad shouldered , big
boned and rather good loolnng Ho dresses
In good taste und when he weut down the
river the olhor day with President Harrison

order Ho loft also $15,030 to found n
zoological museum at Harvard and Grays
hall of Harvard is named after him Gray
graduuted at Harvard at tbo ugo of slxtoou
Ho was appointed after the death of the
late Justice Clifford by President Arthur ,
George Uoutwell was a candidate for the i
place at the same tlmo , but Arthur
Is said to have chosen Gray on the
account of the statement of Senator Hoar ,
who claimed that Garfield intended to have
appointed him George C. Goroham , in com
menting upon the uppointmont , said that "it ,
was made on a forged will of the late James
A. Garfield presented for probate by George i
F. Hoar " Justice Gray lives very nicely
at Washington Ho has a big hnuso with a
cavo-llke entrance on the corner of Slx-
toonth and I streets There Is probably a
good sllco of his grandfathers wealth still I
in the family and this added to the accumu '
lations of his own practice and his $10,000 a 1
year ought to keep tbo wolf from his door

The excitement proceeding the election

cnunt for u slight falling off of sales of real
estate On Friday , January ! ! ! , the recorded
sales amounted to $5VJC0 : This figure was
considerably exceeded on the other days uf
the week As n sample of the snlcs made I
quote the sale of W. M , Carter to hDlck -

to bo n magnificent establishment , with ap
pointments ns complete ns they can bo

Cincinnati , nro especially rich und tasteful
Expert workmen from New York City und
Chicago will bo busy in a largo work room

establishment worthy of a largo city
The United electric company of this city

This company has Just put a valuable elec

which lichts the gas burners ull through the

Our seven principal hotels are well filled
with guests from east and west , and , to
Judge from the many inquiries received hero
from parties cast , the intlux of tourists and
others will assume enormous proportions in
the sprinir
The llfo on the streets nnd the activity in
the numerous stores nro tn strong contrast
with the many low and insignificant houses
on the best streets The many magnificent
buildings already erected only make one
realize the more strongly how absolutely
necessary is the bnildlne of many moro , and
that these will bo built this year thcro Is

It Wasn't AnirofR Ho Ilcnrtt
San Francisco Chronicle : It was a
sad scone The old man lnv on his bed
and by him sat the faithful wife , hold
ing his worn hand in hers and forcing
back the tears to proot his wandering
look with a smllo She spoke words of
comfcrt and hope liut he full the cold
hand falling on him aijd ho turned his ,
weary eyes up to tho"palc , wan face
Jennie , dear wife , I am going ' '
"O no , John ; not yet ; not yet "
Yes , dear wife , ' ' and ho closed his
eyes ; the end is near The world
grows dark about me There is a tnist
around mo garnering thicker and
thicker , and there , as through a cloud ,
I hoar the music of angels swcot and
sad "
"No , no , John , donr ; that isn't '
angels ; that's the brass band on the
corner "
"WnatI" said the dying man ; have
these scoundrels darotl to como around
here when they know I'm dyingV Give
rae my bootjack Ill lot 'om see , "
And in a towering rage the old man
jumped from his bed , and before his
wife could think ho had opened the
window and shied the bootjack at the
baud
"I'vo hit that Dutch leudor , any
way "
And ho wont back to bed and got
well
