One cold New Year's tho wife and

rendezvous for tho carriages of tho

so accessible to reporters iu those days
as ho has been during his olllclal caieer
in Washington. A number of bogus in

was sought to cast ridioulo upon his

tho beautiful courtroom with its clas

Clay, Calhoun nnd Webster. Tho su

most fascinating thing wo hnvo in Wash-

tho fact remains that men who will not
tako tho trouble to go to see tho opening
session of tho senate or houso of repre
sentatives leave their work and rush
away to tho Capitol to see tho niuo jus
tices enter with their robes and their
dignity upon them. It is, truly, n scene
worth traveling some distance to behold.
A fow seconds before tho hands of the
old clock pointed to noon n shuffling of
feet was heard in tho adjoining passage.
An ofllcial raptied threo times on his
desk, and at this signal tho lawyers at
tho bar and nil tho spectators roso to
their feet. Then tho justices, attended
by tho marshal of tho court, filed iu one
after another, nnd each stood behind his
big chair. Then a rather nervous man,
who bus long earned n respectablo live
lihood by uttering ono sentence a day,
cried out:

All persons having business before tho
honorable, tho supremo court of tho

This tho crier delivered in n mono
tone, as if he wero very much bored by '
having to say it nt nil, but lowered his '
voico reverentially for tho concluding
words. Then tho justices bowed to At

lawyers at tho bar, and Attorney Gen

courtesies between bench and bar the
justices sat down and a fw lawyers
wero admitted to practice before tho
court, taking tho oath and kissing more
or less fervently the little old Bible,

Justice1 Brown must make tho first calls
on the wives of all tho other justices.
She is last 011 the visiting lists of all her
fi lends.
Ik-cause the court sat only ten min
utes on the opening day, let no one
imagine that the justices have an easy
time of it. They do not. Few success
fill lawyers work harder than tho jus
tices of the supremo court. It is one of
tho rules of this court that every cum
must be decided by all the justices, and
it is the only impoitaut court iu the
world that does not assign cases to indi
vidual nieiubeis. This makes it neces
sary for each of tho justices to read up
and woil: out all of tho cases pending,
and about -100 cases are tiled every yeai .
more than half oi which aie decided.
When the justices have tiuMied their
reading of bih-fn in a case, a vote

to write thu decision and opinion. Tu

dry way, and they smile heartily and
unanimously, especially at their own
jokes. It is real jolly to see a smile stai t
with the chief justice awl spread out in
both diiections like a pair of wings, HI
it has embraced Justices Drown and
Brewer. Justices and lawyers mux
smile, but they must not laugh aloud
though a number of them came veM
tho house of Mr. Julius Ciosar Burroughs,
in Kalamazoo, tomorrow morning, awl 1
will seo what I can do for you."
Wo were on an east bound Michigan
Central train when I asked for the inter
view. I stopped at Kalamazoo, where
there wero several bauds of music and a
flue torchlight procession in honor of tho
arrival of Mr. Blaine, who was to ad
dress a meeting on the squaro tho fol
lowing da
Next moinlng I called at the residence
of Mr. Burroughs and found hts dis
tinguished guest surrounded by a group
of admiring farmers. Mr. Illalno did
not wait to be reminded of his appoint
ment, but came forward as soon as I en- 1
teied the room, and said: I
"Excuse mo a fow moments, sir, nnd j
1 will be at your service."
Iu a short time ho excused himself to
the visitors and wo went into Mr. Bur
roughs' library. j
"Do you write shorthand!" ho asked
ns soon as we wero seated.
"Yes." I replied.
"But do yon wiite it well?"
"I have taken your own speeches, Mr.
Blaine."
"Well, that is promising," ho said,
with one of his magnetic smiles, "but
I'll test you In person now. Wo have
very good stenographers iu Washington.
Get out your notebook and we'll begin."
I made sure from this introduction
that Mr. Blaine was going to rattle oil a
thre cojiimu interview at his platloim
speed, and I sharpened several pencils to
bo in readiness for the task.
"Now," he explained, "I am not going
to givo you a direct interview with my
self, but will iclnto a conversation oil
tho cars between several statesmen, iu
which I paiticipated, which you will Hud
as intetestin as anything that 1 might
sav at this time on nublic nuestions."
This was not a rash prediction. 'J ho
matter Mr. Illalno dictated was oppor
tune awl touched leading topics in Ills I
own masterly stylo.
The ai tide made exactly 11 column iu I
length, and at Mr. Blame's average 1 ate I
of speaking should have taken about (If- I
teen minutes to dictate. There was no
test of my shorthand speed, however, as
it took him exactly two hours to dictate I
it. which was consideiably longer than it
would have taken to wi ite it out iu long
hand. Mr. Blaine hesitated at almost
every sentence, and would pause fie
queutly to ask questions about matters '
foreign to the subject in hand I was
kept changing wot ds andiemodeliugseii
tences. and when the task was ended Mr.
Blaine remarked, with a merry twinkle
in his eyes. "Now you can understand
why I wanted an expert stenographer."
1 I attended the mass meeting iu the
( afternoon awl heard Mr. Blaine deliver
a brilliautspecch at the rate of 170 woids
. a minute, which could have been printed
I from veibatiiu notes without tho clmnt.'e

So on Monday the big justices and the
little justices, with their marshal, cleik
and reporter, wero bundled into car
riages and driven to the White House.
On the box of each carriage sat tho body
servant of the occupant, and as the pro
cession movoJ down Pennsylvania ave
nue it was noticed tho equipages were
driven in the order of seniority of tho
passengers. Tlio right of precedence or
seniority is rigidly respected iu all tho
coinings awl goings of tho supreme court.
The only man who escapes its restric
tions is tho chief justice, and of conie
ho comes firot iu everything.
On the bench Justice Field, being the
senior, sits at the chief justice's right.
Justice Field was appointed by Lincoln.
Next in length of service is JuMice Brad
ley, who was appointed by (ienera1
Grant, and of course he sits at the chut
justice's left. Justice Harlan, appointed
by Hayes, is third, awl his post is at
Field's right. Justices Gray and Blatch
ford, both appointed by President
Arthur, urn f Mirth and fifth, and their
seats are respectively at Bradley's left
awl Harlan 0 right. Justice Lamar,
whose commission was signed by Prei
dent Cleveland, siu at tho left of Gin) .
while Justices Brewer awl Blown, who
were appointed by President Harrison,
occupy the end seats.
This order of seniority is observed I
