writes Philosopher Dooley, "I'd

Judlcyal tlmperamlut. I lmto work."
"Now look horo," aald tho lawyer, shak
ing his flat at tho witness, "I want you to
understand that you can't bamboozlo tno
In this court simply becauso you'ro a
woman!"
"WhyT" aho asked In hor Bweotost tones;
"Is your wife present?"
Tho Orcen Bag tells of a Uwyer who was
nhout to furnish a bill of costs. "I hopo,"
said his client, who wnB a baker, "that you
will ninko It as light as possible." "Ah."
said tho lawyer, "you might porhaps say
that to tho foroman of your establishment,
but that Is not tho way I mako my brend!"
A county attorney In Nebraska had a
visitor the othor day, who prosontcd a
technicality ot criminal law In tho follow
ing language:
"Lot us supposition, snh, dat ah bought
u chicken; dat dat samo chicken was
puhloined from mah lahdch; dat ah traced
It to do resldonco ob do tlcf; dat In ro
covorln' do bird nh Innocently confused It
with nnothah fowl and took dat Instead of
mah own bird. Now, havo ah do criminally

dat tlof and rocovnh mah own chicken,
though ah havo eaton do chicken ah con
fused with mah own chicken, nn' at de samo
tlmo havo de tlof arrested a 1 put In Jail?"
Tho county attorney has tu..en tho matter
under ndvsomont.
A curious case camo up the other day bo
fore tho court tn Caroline county, Mary
land, when nn ancient resident was charged
with the larceny of nlno eggs. Extra
Jurors hnd to bo summoned, and It cost tho.
county $2G0 to try tho case Tho accused
was 73 years old. His counsel Bald ho had
known tho dofendant for forty years, and
It wns Incredible that ho would stoat eggi.
He argued that anyhow tho state had not
shown that the eggs woro sound, nnd nlnn
rotten eggs would havo no valuo at all.
Tho Jury stayed out Alteon minutes and
returned a verdict of not guilty.
"Who Is tho patron saint of lawyors?" U
n question that might pertinently be asked
on a dny when both bench and bar attend
their devotions prior to tho opening of tho
law courtB, says tho St. James Gazette of
London. According to ono old story, a
famous Brittany lawyer onco appealed to
Homo for tho appointment ot a saint. Tho
popo proposed that ho should go nround a
cortaln church blindfolded nnd lay hold of
the saint nearest to hand. Following this
suggestion, ho stopped nnd grasped a cer
tain figure, crying: "This bo our patron
snlnt!" When tho bnndago was removed
from his eyes ho found thnt, though ho had
stopped beforo tho oltor of St. Michael, to
his horror ho had laid hold, not ot St.
Michael, but of the figure under St.
Mlchnel's feet, tho dovll. Hence, ot course,
tho nlcknnme of tho InnB of Court Volun
teers, tho "Dovll's Own."
The following complaint wns recently filed
before a Judgo In Oklahoma: "Tho abovo
named dofendnnt, Bcttn Brown, hereby ac
cused ot tho crlmo of throwing hot black
borry Juice on ono H. C. Clark, for that ln
Oklahoma county, nnd ln tho territory ot
Oklnhoma, on tho 1st dny of July, 1901, did
then and thero In tho town of Luther and
In tho kitchen ot the Covott hotel, unlaw
fully, feloniously and with malice Intent,
take from tho kitchen stove ot the said
hotel n dtshpan ot boiling blackberry Jam
and threw the snmo upon tho said H. C.
Clark, burning his left arm i nd also hls
back, contrary to tho form of tho statutes
In such cabe made and provided, and against
tho peaco ond dlgulty of tho territory of
Oklnhoma."
"While I was tn practice," sayB Judgo
Gates of Kansas City, "I was before the
suprome court on one ocenston. Whllo
watting for my caso to ho called I listened
to a lawyer from tho southeastern part of
tho stato arguing his case. He was at
least six feet sovon Inches tall and had a
votco so deop than when ho spoke It seemed
llko a rumbling of Nlngarn. 'I will read,'
ho said, 'from a work with which your
honors are no doubt familiar Blackstono.'
Tho Judges did not smile, although there
was a doclded twinkle In tholr eyes as they
glanced at each othor. The mnn read a
fow lines nnd then said: 'There Is refer
ence hero, your honors, to a footnoto by
Lord Granville' Tho Judges wnlted ex
pectantly. Tho lawyer held tho book In
front of him, glanced nt It two or three
times nnd then coughed ns many times In
rather an embarrassed manner. Everybody
wnlted for aoveral seconds. Finally he said:
'Your honors, I see on closor Inspection that
this footnoto Is In Latin, so I reckon I'd
bettor skip that.' "
She Had a Bet
"For a week or two beforo the election,"
said a Dctrolter to a Free Press man, "my
wife seemed to pay moro than usunl atten
tion to politics. In fnct, sho surprised mo
by asking questions touching on tho situa
tion, and when I tried to find out what she
wns driving at sho simply put on a know
ing look nnd had nothing to say. Tho morn
ing nfter election I got up fully an hour
ahead of tlmo to see tho papor, as I had n
little wager on the result. I was too lato.
My wlfo had tho sheet nnd her faco was
fairly beaming ns sho looked at tho returns.
I expressed my astonishment nt her Inter
est nnd she ropllcd:
" 'I didn't want to say anything to you till
I saw how things camo out, but I had a bet
on tho election.'
" 'You don't rcenn It?' I gasped In ns
tonlshment. " 'But I do. I had a in bet with Mrs.
Baker, and oh, I'm so tickled I don't know
what to do. It's my first bet, you know.'
"'And was your candidate elected?' I
asked ns soon as I could get my oreath.
" 'I I guess not.'
"'Was ho defeated?'
" 'I I think so.'
"'Then whnt tickles you?'
" 'Why, ho camo within 9,000 votes of
being elected. Just think of It. Richard.
If ho could have got 0,000 moro votes ho'd

A Way They Have

ot tho work of a now author: "He has
written a book, yot wo do not rocall that I
