TO PROTECT S4CRED SNUFF
Reason Given for the High Bench Be
hind Which Supreme Court Judge*
Have Their Seat*.
The Federal Supreme court Is cele
brating Its centenary of "the high i
bench." Originally the Justices sm
behind n long bench on the floor of the
court—on a lerei with the lawyers
who tritu their cases before them.
This straight desk had set Into It a
snuff oos opposite each Justice's seat.
Henry Clay was arguing a case before
the court. During a pause In his argu
nient one of the Justices reached for
ward, took a pinch of snuff and settled
back to weigh the more carefully the
reasoning presented. In his next
pause Mr. Clay reached over and with
ii "Thank you" took a pinch himself.
The court «as Indignant. That after
noon they met to decide what could be
done to preclude the possibility of a
«ecood breach of the "etiquette of the
••ourt" and decided to have a bench
made of such height that no mere
practitioner could reach their pet snuff.
Since then they have sat behind the
high bench that la In use today.—New
York Tribune.
