The contrast affoiued by the profits of
the legal profession . In this tounlry and
in . England waa vividly brought out at a
lsctuia recently delivered In London by J,
A. Slater, barrlster-et-law. His subject
waa "The law; its Humor and Pathos."
Mr.' Slater said that there was a certain
glamour oast around barristers, and people
thought they must be exceedingly clever.
It was true, Indeed, that there were some
of the most brilliant men In England
among them, but on the other hand, there
were also some of the most' blithering
idiots.
A curious fact instanced by the lecturer
was that, out of 10,000 or 12,000 barristers
In England, only about 2,000 make an effort
to practice.
There appears to exist In the popular
mind In England a very exaggerated con
ception regarding barristers' earnings. This
errooeous Impression Mr. Slater took some
pain to dispel. Of men reputed to be mak
ing 15,000 to 20,000 a year at the bar,
ha made short work by simply stating that
they do not exist Men who make 1,000
a year at the common law bar numbered
fewer than fifty. The discrepancy between
earnings here and there . Is amply Illus
trated when we remember that a lawyer,
who had received a fee of 360,000 In one
case, recently sued for a balance. In the
a me case, of some 300,000.
Large fortunes are rarely made at the
English bar, and Its records are full of
tragedies. There were twenty-six men
"called" at the same time as Mr. Slater,
but only three are now practicing, and
six, finding themselves utterly stranded,
sank lower and lower until they ultimately
died of drink.
It Is not a pleaeairt ploture that Mr.
Bister drawa, but thoee who know condi
tions as they exist In England will readily
admit that It is true to life. For this un
satisfactory state of affairs, the division
Of the legal profession into two great
branches, that of the barristers and that
of the solicitors (formerly called attor
neys), Is to a large extent responsible. The
barristers are supposed to be the higher
branch, and a client may not approach a
barrister directly; he must first engage a
solicitor, who. In turn, "instructs" or
"briefs" tha barrister. The solicitor nat
urally employs a man who has a reputa
tion, or In whom he is In some way inter
ested, and thus It comes to pass that hun
dreds of men, who would prove to be ex
cellent pleaders If they got a chance, never
receive a brief. The barrister, too, Is sup
posed to work for the honor and glory
of the thing, for, If the solicitor falls to
pay his fee, It Is not recoverable by legal
process.
It Is not to be wondered at that the bar
rister thus handicapped frequently goes to
the wall. What is to be wondered at Is
that so many young men are willing to em
brace a profession which, from Its very
Tha finding of Mi and butterflies a long
way out at sea Is not unusual.. When a
certain vessel had stood out some thirty
miles from the shores of China a plague of
flies overtook It. The cabin waa so full of
them that the beams were blackened. Com
mon black house files they were for the
most part with, however, a plentiful sprln.
kllng of large green flies. Where the could
have ooma from waa a mystery; but they
were a terrible nuisance, and, although the
orew swept off hundreds In a net their
numbers were not sensibly diminished.
Another singular circumstance wag that.
although no land was In sight large dragon
flies repeatedly flew across the ship; and
there was observed one large, dark butter
fly flitting across In the direction of land
without stopping to rest on the ship. At
this time the nearest land was the Chusan
islands fully thirty miles off.
There are many Insects that migrate from
one quarter of the globe to another In vea
sels plying between distant porta Indeed,
it has been contended, the spread of many
varieties of Insects has been dependent on
the ships of civilised nations. Winged pests
and blessings have been continually carried
to new countries by this means.
Not so many years ago a vessel from the
tropics waa followed by a swarm of butter
flies which persistently hovered about the
rigging until the shore was lost In tha mists.
Then the insect alighted on the masts and
decks. A few disappeared In the cabins and
the hold of the ship. After a trip of some
forty days the vessel reached England, and
from their hiding places In the ship quite a
number of these butterflies emerged and
flew ashore. Thug an entirely new species
of butterfly was Introduces Into the British
Isles.
Ships engaged In the fruit trade are
visited by a miscellaneous collection of
queer creatures. Concealed In bunches of
bananas there may be poisonous reptiles
and Insects that have traveled half round
the globe. They may bite or sting the hand
of some receiver of fruit or they may be
killed before they have Inflicted injury.
Frequently, however, they escape ashore;
and should th new climate prove congenial,
tney may in a very hort time produce a
progeny that will eventually spread to no
small extent. Venomous snake of th
tropic have thus been Introduced into lands
where none were ever known to exist be

stantly migrate In fruit-ships. Numerous
immigrants In the shape of bee are brought
in with flower and plant.. .

some being of distinct value to their
adopted country, their Introduction In a
way frequently working out the problem of
the destruction of soma pest
In addition to the assortment of aueer
insects not on the ship' invoice that are
brought into fort may be cited some odd
items of cargo regularly listed. Of these,
perhaps one of the strangest ever known,
was a cargo of B.000 cats, sbfrmed tram
Hamburg to Yokohama, for use In battling
with a pest of mice In Japanese towns
This shipment of what Shakespeare called
"th harmless necessary cat" proved a wise
one, .seeing that the pestered Japs were
thus enabled to rid themselves of their
little nuisance.
Th Haytlan government onoe despatched
a vessel to Klngstoa, Jamaica, there to take
on a cargo of many male and female vul
ture of th "John Crow" variety. It ap
pear that the statesmen of th black re
public, in a spasm of reform, decided upon
the establishment of a street-cleaning de
partment In Jacmel. Human labor being
too expensive there at the time, they de
termined, upon learning of the wonderful
acavenger qualltle of tt. Jamaican vul
tures, to enlist their aid toward th ac
complishment of their sanitary project The
vulture were obtained through the court
esy of the government of Jamaica, and for
a while the scheme of the Haytlan worked
well. It wa found difficult however, to
keep the vulture "on the job" at Jacmel,
Inasmuch as they had business elsewhere
when once they had cleaned up the Haytlan
town pretty well. Harper' Weekly.
