CONSIDER MX SMITH.
There was a very good story in tho
papers of the day, of a joke which was
ulayed by old Dr. Caldwell, formerly of
the University ol North Carolina.
The old doctor was a small man, and
lean, hut as hard and angular as the most
irregular of pine knots.
He looked ae if lie might lie lough, bu.
he did not sceui strong. N verthelrss,
he was, among the knowing onea, reputed
to be as agile as "a cat;'' and in addition
was by no means deficient in knowlodgo
of the “noblo science of self defense. ”
Besides, he was as eool as a cucumber.
Well, in the Ireshman class of a certain
year was a burly beef mountaineer of
eighteen or nineteen. This genius eon
oeived a great contempt for old Bolus’
physical dimensions, and bis soul was
horrified that one so deficient in uiu-ele
should ho so potential in his rule.
Poor Jones—that's what we'll call him
—had no idea of moral force. At any
rate he was not inclined to knock under,
and he controlled despotically by a man
that lie imagined he could tie at.d whip.
He at length determined to give the gen
tlemau a genteel thrashing some night on
the college campus, pretending to mis
take him lor some Icllow student.
Shortly alter on a dark anti rainy nigh - ,
Jones met the doctor crossing the campus.
Walking up to biin abruptly:
“Hello, Smith! you rascal—is this
you?”
And with that he struck the old gentle
man a blow on the sido of the faoe that
nearly felled him.
Old Bolus said nothing, but squared
himself, and at it they went. Jutes’
youth, weight and muscle made him an
"ugly customer,” hut after a minute or
two the doctor's science began to tell, and
in a short time he had knocked his beefy
antagonist down, and was astraddle his
chest,with one handonhis throat, and the
other dealing vigorous cutfa on tbo side of
his head.
“Ah! stop! I hog your pardon, dootoi!
—Dr. Caldwell—a mistake—for heaven's
sake, doctor!" groaned Jones, who
thought he was about to be eaten up—
“l—l really thought it was Smith!”
The dootor replied with a word and a
blow alternately:
"It makes uo difference; for present
purposes oonsider me Smith I"
And it is said that Old Bolus gave
Jones such a pounding, then and there,
aa probably prevented his ever making
another mistake as to personal identity,
at least on the college campus.
HOW .MANT.
"How many drachms make a pint?"
asked a school teacher.
“Four," yelled a little boy, spring
ing up.
“How do you make that?” asked the
astonished instructor “the table says it
takes 128.”
“Well, it don’t take but four at our
house; ’cause 1 beard ma say that when
she wanted to make a pint with the old
maD, she give him about four dran s, an'
then she was solid.”
Such reasoning broke the teacher
down. Atlanta Constitution.
A CHARGE TO THE JIHT.
In a flourishing mining town known
as Chipp’s Flat, Sierra county, thirty
years ago, the location of the claims
and the mining law adopted thereunder
were atu-h that one continuous war of
litigation was the result Two mining
companies having conflicting claims,
seeing the almost impossibility of
settling their disputes by a resort to
the district courts, mutually agreed to
try their cause before a justice of the
peace and a jury of twelve miners
selected from those having river claims
on tho Middle Yuba. A. S. McMillan,
of Minnesota, the hanking and express
agent of Langston’s express and hank
ing house at Downicville, had just
been elected justice ol the peace for
the township, including Minnesota and
Chipp’s Flat, in 1853. So it was
agreed that he should preside, and the
trial came off early in the year 1854
at C’liipp’s Flat In order that suffi
cient room should be had for the
parties litigant and their friends the
billiard and liquor saloon of Paul
Coppeans (now living at Snow Point,
in Nevada county) was chosen as the
most spacious building in town. The
trial commenced promptly at 9 o’clock
in thu morning and occupied the entire
day.
Both the parties litigant had plenty
of money, and each seemed to vie with
the other in liberality during the
progress of trial. Lawyers had
l>een provided by each side to conduct
the case, and it must he presumed that
they lelt no interest iu putting a stop
to tlie liberality of their respective
clients. At all events, frequent
recesses of the court were had during
that day, of five minutes each, when
refreshments would he served, mostly
of a liquid v character. Justice
McMillan was not erudite in the law;
but if there was one thing in which he
exhibited great pride it was to be
addressed as “Your Honor” when
presiding in a ease. Anything more
familiar than that always roused his
ire. The numerous adjournments
which the court took this day had
more perceptible effect on the presiding
justice than on anyone else connected
with the ease, though champagne and
whisky had been freely imbibed all
round. Plenty of substantial* in the
eating line had been provided, in order
that the case might be determined at
one sitting. The testimony was ad in
at 5 o’clock, and the counsel had con
eluded their arguments at a little lie
fore 9. Ileali sing the fact that many
thousands of dollars were involved in
the suit, McMillan thought it incuro
bent on him for the first and last time
in hi* life to deliver a charge to the
jury, and did so. By this time the
frequent adjournments had produced
a marked change in “Ilis Honor.’’
His tongue seemed thick, ami his
utterances had no meaning or special
application to the ease at bar. Upon
McMillan stating that such and such
were laws for the jury to consider, one
juryman, dear headed and sober, made
this inquiry: “Mae, where do you find
that law?’’ “What is that sir?”
angrily inquired “His Honor.’’ “I
simply want to know,” replied the
juryman, “where you found that law
just quoted? ’ “Dash dash your soul,’’
replied “Ilis Honor.’’ “I’ll give you
to understand that when I tell you a
tiling is law, it is law!”
Upon this His Honor reached his
right hand down to his right hip, where
he had a large navy Colt revolver in
its sheath, and drawing it, tho juror
saw it was no place for him, and he
broke for a s : de door and escaped from
tho room. As His Honor still hold
the weapon in a threatening attitude,
the remaining jurymen thought it
would he more healthy to be outside,
and so they followed the first jury
man. Believing the dignity of the
court to be horribly outraged, His
Honor followed, threatening dire
vengeance upon the whole jury. The
ridge between Chipp's Flat and
Minnesota at that time was heavily
timbered with pine and fir. There
was a flat of about 50 or 60 yards
before reaching this ridge, and the
jurymen seeing the irate justice making
for them, revolver in hand, at once
broke (or the timber, he following
closely and threatening death to each
and all unless they returned to the
court room. But the jury outfooted
the judge and took shelter among the
timber. That jury never re-assembled
to render its verdict. The members
of the two mining companies in litiga
tion met that night in a spirit of the
best humor (in fact, they had been so
all day) talked over the abrupt dis
persion of the jury, and mutually
agreed to divide the mining ground in
dispute. And that ended the last
litigation on Chipp’s Flat, but all
those conversant with the facts of the
ending of this trial still maintain that
on this occasion McMillan's charge to
the jury was the most remarkable of
all time. San Francisco Call.
