There tlio legal warriors have urossod tiwords whllo the liven and property of clients hung In tbo balance , but never In the history of the Doualas county courts did the attorneys hold a more Important and pleasant meeting than yostordny. The occasion was the retiring of Judges Wakoloy and Eitella to private Hfo. The hands of the court liouso cloclc plodded lazily nioiiK until the hour of 10ilJ bad boon ranched. Three hundred motnoort of the bar patlontly awaited the arrival of the members of the licnah , At that hour Judges Wnlteloy , Uoano , Ilopowoll , Davis , Ferguson , Irvlno , and Hstollo arrived and at on co took up their positions on ttio hunch. Judge Wakulov sat 111 the center nnd od- dtng to Deputy Lou Grouo , Instructed him to open court. Cleric Moorci read the Journal , after which Judge Wulccluy remarked ihnt the luilgos had mot , not for tbo transaction of business , but nt thu request of the bar. Concfiili'il it Ill O.ik HUT , Before the arrival of the Judges , a largo oak box , highly polished and bound in brass bed Ucon brouirut Into the room and depos ited on the uttornoy's table , where it was piled high wltii overcoats , hats and caps.

The Judgment , ho sanl , \vould bo p.iRscct before tboconrt was allowed to pass Its Judgment , "for " said he , "if that course is not pursued , wo may not have : i cluinco to speak. " Ho said the occasion was no funeral , und nil that ho nskod was tbiit Attorney JJaldwIn be not allowed to speak. Some people thought the time to say good thinks about men was after they wcro dead , but ho would rather sny good things of live men tlian to scalier llowors on their biers. In behalf of the bar ho read tbo following memorial and resolutions , which weru adopted : < > t tint IJnr , "lion. Elsnrcr Wakcloy , for nearly nlno years one of the Judges ofthis court , lo.xvestho bonuh today. 1'rlor to assuming his Judicial duties ho enjoyed the high distinction of standing at the Head of his profession in this state , his advlcu belli t : soucht by many and varied intcrosjs. to which ho gave the most assldlous attention and high legal learning. Upon tlio bench ho has displayed thn same qualities. As an Industrious woruer he has not been surpassed oy any of his successors or predecessors. Ho has always boon earnest in the discharge of his duties , faithful to the hich trust Imposed in him. 'With a life of surpassing purity and up rightness Jndgq Wakolby has brought in the dlsuhorgo of his duties upon the bench the fiamo Indi'sponsiblo reiiuUitcs. His advice has always been sought upon complicated questions by his associates ana Ills judgment by the profession respected. No taint has at tached to his name in the administration of the nffuirs of his ofllco. No unfair deal ings in whatever form they have boon brought before him but what have received re buke. No fraud , no matter under what guise it has been presented , has gene unkennelled. lie has fully oxomplilled the eloquent words of Bishop Home , When hognothupto the judgment beat to put on righteousness AS a glorious andboautiful robe , and to render his tribunal a lit emblem of that eternal throne of wblcti justice nnd 'judgment nro thn habitation. "Wo bid him good-byo with regret , butre- joico that , tie will still practice his profession nnd wo doubt not but that ho will uo able to bear defeat in sharply contested causes witii younger men of the profession , and as in olden duvs adopt tbo only two modes of dls- bent from the judgment ot the court go into the corridor of the court house nnd oxuress it to the unresponsive walls or tauo an ap peal. "Unsolved. That this memorial bo spread upon the records of this court nnd an en grossed copy bo transmitted to Judge Wulioloy. " I'rrHi'iitoil it Silt or Sort Ice. As soon as the resolutions wcro adopted Judga Ambrose throw aside the pile of over coats und displayed the box above referred to. Ho took from his pocket a tiny hey , turned back the bolts of stool and upon rats- inc the cover , upon which was fastened a burnished platoof brass , engraved : WAKELEY , Pro-joined Jan. ! ! , 1803 , By tlio Bar of.

And through all these years I hnvo fell the nustalnlng and buoyant Influence , vhlch came from the n - suranco In many wnyo expressed , that I hnu the coiilldonco of tlio bar , nnd the reliance of the people that 1 was endeavoring to ndmln- istrr Justice among thorn with Integrity of purpose , nnd with whatever of ability I posse scd. Without this assurance , nnd this belief , I can sny , with absolute linearity , I would not have been willing to remain for n day In thii pluco , "Yot no ono of yon , no party , no litigant , can hnvo boon more conscious of my imper fections , than I hnvo been conscious how far short I hnvo como of realizing my own ideal of what n judge of this court should bo. I have endeavored with steadfast purpose to walk strnlglitforivarl In Iho path of judicial duty and rectitude. Yet I have keenly felt , at times , that my steps were uncertain nnd the path was obscured.

" Judge Eslollo , in n brief speech accepting the token of respect , said that ho and tils as sociate had nonrd the judgment pronounced upon them by the bai , and in stopping down from the position he occuploJ could say but a word. During his career upon the bench ho had tried to do right nnd deal out even handed justice to all men. The token ho regarded as an expression of thu kindly tooling bad for him as a member of the bar , more than an estimate of his services upon the bench. AVuluoiuril Hack to thu Itur. Ex-.Tudgo ( flarkson , upon whom devolved the duty \veleoinitiir the two retiring juugcs buck to the bar , spoke as follows : "Boing sorntnvhni of an amphibian , if the bench can bo likened unto unstable wutor and tbo bur to good , solid land , upon mo has fallen , at iho urgent solicitation ol the entire bar , with perhaps I ) .

Saying nothine of what has been the lotand its good fultlllment , of each of these gentlemen , and desiring to strip from them , if it has been donned , any garment ot sorrow or regret , it is our pleas ure , speaking In behalf of the bar , to lay before them the splendid chances of the future , and to make the description so tan talizing both to the present occupants of the bench , und to these who are on thu eve of leaving gaps In our ranksas can bo ventured with Impunity. "If I may bo pardoned , the balance of the address will be directed to Judges "Wukeloy and Estello.

ALL ABOUT A SIDEWALK- Ilimid < > r IMiicatlon und Colonri Hlrklmiucr ] lu\iMi Coiillict U'ltlimit ItlooiNlicil. The Board of Public Works nnd tbo Baard of Education narrowlv escaped tiaviiip a clash nncl collision of nuthoiity jcstcrdny over the rteht to build a sidewalk between Harnoy nnd Farnnm streets. The school district formerly owned the ground immediately west of the Fnnmm school which should become Twenty-ninth or Park avenue botvvcon Hartley und Pnrnnm streets. The Board of Education sold this ground to the citv for btreot purposes , but ttio city never paid for it. Last'summor when tbo city council decided to close Twenty-ninth street on the east of the Farnam school and sell thu ground , tbo Boird of Educa tlon proposed to malco nn ex change of ground , by releasing the city from tbo payment of the purchase price of the lot on the'west of the building if the city would deed the lot on the east of the school building to the school district. Tjiis the citv council refused to do. The Board or Education then fenced up the lot on the west of thn Farnam school nnd shut off the street trafllo there Dctucon Har noy and Farnam. There has been a creat deal of complaint on Iho part of parent : ; who had to send their children to the Far nam school from points south ot Harnoy on Park avenue because they were obliged to wade throuph n muddy sticot from Harnoy to Farnum with not oven the semblance of n sidewalk. A few days ago the Board of Public Works ordered tho"sidewalk inspector to lav a walk along the east side of Pant avenue from Harnoy to Farnam. This would , of course , necessitate the pulling down of the board fence built by the Board ot Education around the lot west of the Furnam school. As the workmen approached the lot owned oy the Board of Education , Attorney McCoy , em ployed by iho board , madn preparation to have an injunction issued restraining tbo Board ol Public \Vorlt \ * from cutting thr.ough the fence or building u sidewalk upon tbo ground owned by the Board of Education. A coiupromlso'botweontho Board of Public Works and the Board of Education was llnnlly agreed to , however , by Attorney Mc Coy agreeing to recommend to the bourd the building of a temporary sidewalk across the lot and turning styles at either sldo whore the walK will intersect the fence. Mr. Birkhausor agreed to oulld the side- wnlic only to the fence put up by the Board of Education with the noovo understanding , The matter will bo discussed nt tbo meeting of the Board of Education tonight.
