ago siid one of the wellknown membrrs of the louisville bar i was called on to defend a man of nearly middle age who was accused of having stabbed a man in a quarrel on the street imagine my aston ishment when at the first consultation he told me these facts yesterday afternoon said he about duak my brother who re sembles me somewhat was crossing the street when hs met a stranger coming the other way the crossing was muddy the stranger jostled bim and a quarrel ensued that developed into a fight in which my brother who bad his penknife in bis hand stabbed his opponent several times and then ran away as a policeman and several citizens came up after we were all in bed last night ths officers oime to the house after the assailant and much to my surprise the war rant was made out against me my brother is a man of dissipated habits who has sever al times been in trouble and if this case is pressed against him i am afraid he will be sent to the penitentiary on the other hand i am a lawabiding citizen and can prove an excellent charaoter now what i propose to do is to stand trial on this charge plead not guilty prove an alibi as i can prove my character and take the con sequence if i am oonvietod i may get off with a fine and i am willing to pay that to keep my brother out ot prison i tried to persuade my ollent out of auoh a romantio proceeding continued tbe lawyer buc he was determined and in order to do him justice in the defence i obtained assist ance from another lawyer who did not know the faots and who would aot in the defence as if our client were guilty i well the case oame up my olient was identified by the man who had been stabbed and by the police man and other disinterested parties who had witnessed the fight in the semidarkness and were sure of their man as they thought my client swore he did not commit the assault but that ho was at home at the time when it occurred and his family awore to that fact then several leading members of the church testified as to his good charaoter but the jury found him guilty and fined him 50 he paid it without a murmur and the record of his oonviotion stands in the orders of the court all through the trial my clients guilty brother sat by his side in court and neard the testimony without flinchin i asked him what be would have done if his selfsacrificing brother had been sentenced to the penitentiary i intended in that event said he to get up in court and acknowledge my own guilt the other lawyer was thunderstruck after the trial when i told him the faots he refused to believe it and said the evidence was sufficient to conviot any man who lived only the proof of good charaoter saved the accused from a severe sentence to the state prison a bomance of the nobthwesr not to obtrude

things were done in turkey ss elsewhere the decease of the sultans mad half brother marad v would have been notified to the diplomatic body and the turkish court would have gone into mourning but it is forbidden to speak openly of the sultuna female relatives or of the sultans heir the man who will succeed abdul hamid is a wretched lean pale laced creature of five- andforty named mohammed rechad he is the sultans own brother and is kept a close prisoner in the palace grounds lest he frhonld conspire for his majestys downfall he has certainly no such intention but usage requires that a sultans bolr apparent should be treated as a suspected criminal and abdul hamid la muoh too nervous a creature to innovate in this particular he has a horrible fear lest his brother murad y who became crazy from being raised to the throne too suddenly shonld recover hla senses but of this there is no chance and now that murada mother is dead who will there be to prevent the poor lunatic from being hurried to hla end by a pinch of something in his coffee murada mother tflb sultana nadino superintended his household and never left bim it would have been impossible to molest him while she was alive bnt it would be only too mnoh in keeping with turkish traditions if the unhappy madman were now quietly removed in order that abdnl hamid might sleep more soundly ait in tbe pulpit- lnoy did you

of review inacaso involvidg the ownership of property valued at over a million dollars and including the seignioriee of tomfssonata and madawaska one beaulien of river du loup who says he is the greatgrandson of col alexander fraser claims possession of a share of the enormous estate left by that gen tleman and now enjoyed by the defendant alexander fraser beaulieue claims rested upon the alleged legitimacy of the marriage of the late col alexander fraser who set tled in the northwesc in 1788 with an indian girl named angelique meadows through one of those children the claimant contended that he was heir to the disputed estates after being with angelique meadows for some years in the northwest col fraser in 1s01 returned to canada and acquired the seigniories of temisconata and madawaska angelique followed him to quebec in 1803 and with her children lived with him for somo time at river du loup first in the manor house which bo himself ocoupied and later in a small lodge some distance theie- f rom built specially for her accommodation the claimant produced a number of wlt nesaes who had known the late col fraser prior to bis decease in 1836and who tes tified that he had frequently desoribed in their hearing the ceremonial which attended his marriage in the northwest with bis ind ian wife tbe first protestant missionaries to the northwest having only reached these indians in ie 18 fraser told how he saved hia lite by his marriage with angelique which was colebrated tu accordance with the formalities practised by the northwest in dians the defendants contested the legality of this marriage urging that even if it had been celebrated in the then customary man ner it was only a forced alliance they produced a petition presented to the cana dian parliament in 1862 by the present claimant in which it was alleged that col fraser was forced to contract an alliance in the northwest with angelique meadows who saved his life on an occasion when he would most certainly have perished without her protection two or three judges com posing the court gave judgment for the defendant on the ground that the marriage had not been shown to have been contraoted according to the usages then prevailing in the northwest and that even if it had been the consent of fraser thereto had not been free since it was shown that he had been foroed to it in order to avoid
