LAWYER'S ODD CLJJ5KT. lie Dill Not Want Advice, Hut Paid for the Privilege of TulkliiR for One Hoar. A junior member of a Dearborn street law firm, reports the Chicago Tribune, tells this story .of one of his lirtrt clients: "I lind just been appointed junior member of the firm and relieved the older members by looking after the minor cases. One day a well-appearing' man called at the ollice and inquired if 1 could give him an hour of my time and what would be the cost. I told him, and he neeenlctl the terms, hut added: " 'This is not to be a consultation. I do not want advice or assistance. X knew perfectly well what 1 am going to do, but I wnut to talk. I have no friend to whom I can unburden my self, but if I pay you to listen I shall have a right to talk to you freely for the time agreed upon.' "I agreed to this strange proposition and appointed an hour at noon the fol lowing day. The man came promptly, and I took out cigars nnd told the oflicc boy we were not to be disturbed for an hour. " 'Mind, the man said, 'I don't want you to interrupt me. I am paying you to listen.' "Then lie began. For one hour he talked as one who never in his life had unburdened himself to n sympathetic listener. I listened without saying a word. When the clock struck one the man ceased talking, paid his fee, took up his hat nnd walked out. "Six months later, looking over the daily paper, the story of a suicide at one of the hotels attracted my atten tion. The name was that of my talk ative client. I have always believed that if he had had some one to talk to again he would not have committed suicide." HER PENCIL GAVE HER AWAY. Thin Girl Ilctrnyed Her Calling by Wen rl tin It In Her Ilulr. A girl nttired in n white Marseilles suit that had a tailor-made finish walked down the aisle of one of the theaters one niht recently with the nlr of a princess just in from her Hiiminer palace. .She was accompanied by u young man who hnd nn opulent appear ance. The girl sank into nn orchestra chair, adjusted her glass, and tried to look bored, while her escort glanced nt the boxes, says the Chicago Inter Ocean. The women in the row back of the two imposing young persons seemed to be impressed. They studied the braid ing on the girl's white Eton jacket, nnd ftirilively admired the scarf on her sailor lint. They whispered improving comments on the summer costume. Then the curtain went up, nnd the girl removed her headgear. when one of &a w4.cn ,aek ofYheglr, rni, i,...,it,,.. i.i.. i,,i ,.. ...,.,,.. 1 i " "Cash!" There was a piercing scorn in Iter tone that rnndo it carry. The girl in white heard it and spasmodically nut her right hand up to the coil of pretty blonde hair. Then site flushed ft painful crimson. Stuck among the shell hairpins was a hit of k-ad pencil with a piece of .oiled rubber in the end. The horrid women whp hnd envied her as the possible daughter ot a millionaire hnd guessed thut she was ti clerk iri'n downtown department-store. A FATEFUL RIDE. Hovr Lieut. McI.niiRhllii, n Recent Fever Victim, Prevented a Ilnt tle In Porto lllco. The death of Lieut. McLnughlin, of the signal corps, who died of yellow fever tit Santiago, recalls n dramatic in cident, in which he was one of the prin cipal actors, during the campaign in Porto lMeo. Lieut. McLaughlin had charge of a squad which built n telegraph line along the route of the American ad vance on the night of August 12. The signal corps men could not keep pace with the advance of the infantry and artillery, in coinund of Gen. Brooke, and when the latter faced a line of Span ish intreuchments the telegraph Hue was two miles in the rear. At one o'clock of August 13 the mes sage came to Lieut. McLaughlin s sta tion that tlte peace protocol had been signed. There was no way to get to Brooke but ride it, and the lieutenant, accompanied by an orderly, started to make the trip. Mounting his horse, he stnrtcd nt a gallop, and his ride will go down in history as one of the most dra matic ever made on a Held of battle. When he reached the lines of infantry that were supporting the artillery he was told that the guns were about to open fire on the enemy, and, realizing thnt he hnd to be quick or the battle would begin, and knowing the conse quences of such action after the proto col, he sank his spurs into the horse and went on, leaving his orderly, who was mounted cn n mule, far in the rear. 'Still on he vtent, and before 1:30 o'clock lie reached the artillery bat talion, and found tien. Brooke standing beside one of battery B's guns, while the gunner had his hand on the lanyard ready to pull. The message was delivered, the firing prevented, and what might have been a terrible battle stopped. After the campaign closed in Porto Rico Lieut. McLaughlin was sent to Cuba, and was in service there until his death. Philadelphia Press. THE WEST VIRGINIA "SOUP." it Involves u Kissing; Hue and Spread, nnd Orlliu;tcil Dur ing the Wur. A novel custom, started in the days of the civil war, prevails in the eastern West Virginia. At Shepherdstown they have a picnic called "soups." Uaeh per.-.on invited brings n dressetl chicken, the host providing the cgctnbles. Poultry nnd vegetables are placed in large kettles holding from ten to twen ty gallons, and the combination is cooked over open fires for several hours, or until it is reduced almost to n jelly. Pepper and other seasonings are introduced. The girls and young fellows stir the sou) with long-handled spoons, keep ing up a march or walk around the ket tles as they do fo. When a girl's spoon clicks against the spoon of n young man he is at liberty to catch nnd kiss her. Of course, there arc many lively skirmishes, and" a great deal of fun in the game. When the soup is done it is ladeied out into plates and eaten. It is said to he delicious. The custom ewes its nnVm 1 puny of Htonewall Jackson's men who ! were recruited in that pert of the state These ex-eonfeds keep up their or ganization. They have a reunion once n year, nt which they celebrate with n grand "soup." It is said that a "soup" properly got ten up should be made of stolen chick ens, but the veterans had to give up foraging after the war and make n compromise by going around in squnds and robbing each other's roosts by mu tual understanding.
