It was last night, when nt the invitation
of C. L.Gilbort, fifteen "legalized lights"
and court officials spent the evening
with Frank Menefec, to join in celebrat
ing his 34th birthday anniversary. It
was quite befitting on such an occaelou
that the court officials bo on hand, al
though, from what we learn, they must
have been bribed to stand in. It would
perhaps be an easier task to tell just
what wasn't dono than to relate the
program in detail. However, the great
er part of the evening was spent nt
crokonole and cards.
It had been given out that no Indies
would be admitted ; hut it was very evi
dent there was a woman in the cae
when they snt down to a splendid lunch.
Not a guest refused to come into court,
nor nsked for a change of venue; neither
did they appeal from the decision of tho
court when it was decided they had
never fared better. During the lunch
hour the strains of miuic were borne to
them from an invisible orchestra, mak
ing the effect very pleasing; there was
also music at the table, though lawyers
arc never accused of being musicians, still
the strains of Auld Lang Syne were not
lacking in strength to say nothing of
harmony. Toast was included in every
course, and some of it was crisp, too,
particularly that which included the
personal experiences of the "toasters.''
And sotiie evening passed and a portion
of the night before court adjourned, and
it required no jury to bring in a verdict
for a "perfect time."
