This Court Knows Herself, and,
She Thinks She Do."
We frequently hear the expression,
"If the court knows itself, and It
thinks it does," but few persons are
aware of the origin thereof.
The individual who gave birth to It
was a Pike county Mlssourian numed
Blackburn, who , flourished lu the west
many years ago. Blackburn ran away
from home when he was a mere boy
and sought his fortune In the west,
where he grew to manhood as an In
dian fighter, hunter, trapper and
mountain guide. Although not an ed
ucated man, he was possessed of great
acumen, to which was united a keen
wit. When gold was discovered in
California. Blackburn was one of the
first to proceed thither. .'The miners
as a sort of Joke .elected him alcalde.
an office that combined the duties of
mayor and Justice of the peace. The
first case coming before the new al
calde was that of a ganibler who while
drunk had ridden his horse over a
young Mexican woman. ' She was seri
ously injured. . , '. ;
The trial took place In the largest
cabin In the neighborhood. The gam
bier, who was rich, had retained able
counsel to defend him. Alcade Black
burn' called the young woman to the
witness stnnd. , She told a straight
forward, honest story. When she had
finished the alcalde peremptorily end
ed the trial. The attorney for the de
fendant protested vigorously, but the
alcalde disposed of his protest thus:
"If this court knows herself and she
thinks she do, I fine you $500 damages
and assess upon you the cost of puttln'
this young woman in good condition."
When asked what -be meant by
"good condition" the alcalde replied
thnt the gambler must pay the doctor's
bills and all other costs of the young
woman's sickness. Exchange.

Sad Finish of the Career of the Great

Late hours, unwearied vigils, ever
lasting labor, the efTects of chills, damp
