went t#\the lords as Earl of Leicester,
was furious when threatened with
knighthood After an attack on the
prince regent's life in 1817 Coke was
chosen to present him with an address
from the Norfolk Whigs. They Con
gratulated him heartily on his escape,
but concluded -b.v beseeching hint to
"dismiss from his presence and council
those advisers who by their conduct
had proved themselves alike enemies
to the throne and people/' On learn
ing the terms of the proposed nddress
tlie regent, who knew that Cok? valued
his position as coivnnoner above every

"I've said no, and that ends it!"
snapped Mr. Simpson-Jones. "If yon
women want to lind things out why
don't yon follow the advice of St. Paul
and ask your husbands? You women
are such fools."
This was too ini&h for Mrs. Simpson
Jones' long humbled spirit, ?

husbands' for the last 2.000 years, and

ENDED SUPREfAEJpURT LEAK
Legal Body Forced to Tdke Precau
tions for the Safeguarding of
, * Its Decisions.
''Yes, It is truo that supremo court
decisions leaked in tho old days," re
marked oh old-time Wall street broker.
"I remember a certain important tiuit
about JJO years ago. It was tho great
caBe of those days, as big in Its way as
the Standard Oil and Tobacco suits of
recent date. A week before the tye
j cision came down the son of one of
the Judges came into my office, and I
told him that of the nine Judges, one
would decide' 'so and so,' one would re
frain from any opinion, and tho re
maining seven would make a decision
'so and so.'
"He smiled and .went away. Short
ly after the decision was rendered, and
the matter had turned out as I had
foretold, this young man came back
to the office. He said his father was
greatly worried over tho leak In the
court, and asked me if I could help
them trace the source of my Informa
tion. I told him what I knew. That
one oi' tho official supremo court
s'onographers had been selling ad
vance copied of the decisions to a very
prominent broker of that time. What
this broker paid for his information
I, of course, do not lu^tti^: but it was
established that 1 was ~e<)rrect as to
where tho weak spot was in the
court.
"Since then every decision of the
supreme court has been written in
long hand (one copy), thus making it
absolutely impossible for an outsider
to get the news in advance. This ex
plains, in part, why it_now takes so
long for tho court to announce its de
cisions."
Replacing Delusions.
If the popular imagination is. to be
come heated to a point where it dis
cerns an attempt at abduction in every
"dizzy feeling" or momentary illness
suffered by a young woman in a pub
lic. place, it will be unsafe for a man
to offer the slightest civility to any
person of the other sex whom he does
not happen to know. To assist a wom
an into a car will subject him to sus
picion," and to go to her aid if Bhe
faints in the street will render him li
^Jt>le to arrest as a .white-slaven
Auatole France says somewhere
that one result of getting rid of old
.delusions is that they are often re
placed with others of worse aspect.
This present phase of popular credul
ity on the subject would deserve to be
regarded merely as silly if it were
not for. the tendency of an exaggera
tion of the fancied dangers of the evil
to confuse the public mind about its
real dangers.
Why Parsons Mi^ht Not Hunt.
An English clergyman may shoot
birds without outraging popular senti
ment, why not, then, ride after a fox?
To find the answer we must prob
ably go back to those old days when
hard riding meant hard drinking, and
when spiritual life was at a low ebb.
The "hunting parson" came to be a
type of cleric who habitually neglect
ed his dutleB. It is a happy circum
stance that in these days 'foxhunting
need no longer be a reproach because
the greater reproach has been re
moved.- A parson who does his work'
faithfully and well need not be
grudged a few hours' gallop in hlo
leisure moments. Indeed, he can do
It all the better for the exercise, and
win respect for his spiritual teaching
by gaining a reputation for manli
ness and pluck.
