A QUESTION OF EVIDENCE
Senator Proctor of Vermont, re
lated the following with reference
to an Irishman who whs being ex
amined as to his knowledge of a
certain shooting affair, according
to the Chicago Inter-Ocean:
“Did you,” asked the presiding
magistrate of the witness, “did
you see the shot fired !”
“Oi did not sir,” responded the
Celt, “but Oi heard it foired.”
“The evidence is not satisfac
tory,” replied the magistrate
sternly; “you may step down.”
The witness left the box. No
sooner had he turned his back to
the judge than he gave vent to a
somewhat derisive laugh. En
raged at this contempt of court,
the magistrate called the Irishman
baclSto the witness box.
“How dare you laugh in that
manner in court!” demanded the
judge angrilly.
“Did you see me laugh, your
honor!” asked the irishman.
“No, but I distinctly heard you
laugh,” came from the irate
judge.
“Such evidence is not satisfac
tory,” rejoined the Celt, quietly,
a twinkle coming into his eye.
“Whereupon,” says Senator
Proctor, “everyone in court
laughed, including the judge.”

COLLEGE BRED PRESIDENTS.
The college bred presidents of
the United States were: .John
Adams, John Quincy Adams, W.
U. Harrison, John Tyler, James
K. Polk, Franklin Pearce, James
Buchanan, K B. Hayes, J. A.
Garfield, Chester A. Arthur, Ben
iamin Harrison, Theodore Roose
velt.
Those presidents who were not
college bred are: George Wash
ington, Jas. Madison, James Mon
roe, Thomas Jefferson, Andrew
Jackson, Martin Van liuren,
i Zachary Taylor, Millard Filmore,
Abraham Lincoln. Andrew John
son, U. S. Grant, Grover Cleve
land, Wm. McKinley.
By a comparison of these two
lists it is easily seen that the col
lege graduates have not made
greater presidents than those who
were not college bred. In fact,
those whose names shine brightest
in history as having accomplished
more for the republic and people
were men of poor estate, whose
| educations were received in the
1 common schools.
The idea that one must go thru
j college to be a success in the world
is a myth, and cannot be es
I tablished by facts of history. Ex

■INAUGURATION AT NEW CAPITOL
Judge Little hopes to be First
Governor Inaugurated in
the New Capitol.
_
lion. John S. Little, recently
nominated as the Democratic can
didate for governor of Arkansas*
hopes to be inaugurated in the
new state capitol.
He lias not made any plan* as
I .vet for the event, but the Arkan
sas Gazette says as soon as the fall
I elections are over it is expected
| he will go about the preparations
for the event. He hopes to be
able to have the inauguration take
place at the new capitol, and it »»
believed this wish will be complied
with.
If the work progresses as is ex
pected by the contractors there
will be no danger but that the
building will be ready for such an
occasion. The contractors hope
i to begin putting on the roof with
in 30 or 40 days and within sixty
days expect to put a force of plas
terers to work on the interior of
the building. A large force of
| men is now at work cutting and
polishing the stone on hand and
1 sufficient stone is ready for use,
so there will be no further delay
from this cause during the con
struction of .the building. Muck
trouble has been experienced with,
the columns for the building, how
i ever, and work has been delayed
I
I for several weeks on this account.
During the winter it was impossi
ble to get the columns out of the.
quarries at Batesville, and now
that the season has opened 18 cars
of stone are tied up near Newport
and cannot, be shipped to Little,
Rock until the bridge over White
river at Newport is ready for use.
! Several of the concrete floors at
I the new capitol have been put in
and as soon as the columns arrive
they will be put in place and the
roof work will be begun. With -
; the roof on the interior work c»a
be done, no matter how severe the
, weather should lie the coming fall
and winter. The contractors hope
to get most of the exterior work
i done by fall and expect without
unforeseen delays, to have a great
deal of the interior completed in a
rough way by the end of the year.
This will make it possible for
Mr. Little to be inaugurated in
I the new ctpitol, because be will
i not be formally declared elected
until the. middle of January. The
legislature will meet about Janua
ry 15 and a few days afterward
i will canvass the vote and declare
: the result. The next day Mr. Life
I tie will take the oath of office.
