STRANGE IGNORANCE.
Stories Hardly a Reporter In the
' State Capitol.
While waiting for the judges 'to take
their places at the bench in the su
pteme court on Tuesday a group of
inwyets held a social chat that savored
slightly of law and lawyers bttt was
entitely (let old of any thing suggesting
shop. Attorney Charles E Perkins told
a story from Boswell' s Jonson which
was suggested by the topic of the con
1ersntion and which 11113 at the ex
pense of the legal fraternity. Someone,
In the presence of Jonson. said. by
way of cxcusing the disposition of law
your to charge big fees for their scr
vices, that ‘lawvcrs must live." The
great moralist remarked something to
the effect that it. was not apparent to
him that the existence of lawyers was
a necessity for the happiness of htt-
manity. , _
The laughter which followed Mr.
I’erklns’s quotation had not died away
before the story was capped by an-
other one of more modern date The
second story was told by Attorney
Henry G White of New Haven who
is a member of the commission on the
reyis on of thqstatutea. It showed how
poor. equipped from a literary point
of vista some young men are who take
up the study of law. Mr. White said
that at a rodent literary examination.

wrote the Spectator 9" A young man
’ who took the axaminatlbn wrote his
reply as follows: “it was written prin.
ctpally by Addison and he got his in-
formation from Roger do Covet-1y."
Evidently thetyoung man who was aux.
ions to become 'a law student thought
that Sir Roger was a. real personage
instead of being acharacter, and that
he was the dignified Mr. Addison' s as
acetate and not the creation of his lot-
agination. ‘
During the day a person who had
heard Mr White' a story iepeated it to
‘Chari‘es D. Hills. the secretary of the
state board of education. it called
to Mr. Blue the experience which the
