A nephew of the late Sir Oliver Mowat, Premier of Ontario, 1872-1896, his unique justices ever seen in this city and by this nothing discour:- eous is meant. While the dignity of the court is maintained at all times by his lordship, it is never overdone. He is not the pompous, arbitrary individual who enthrones himself in beetle-browed solemnity and ap- pears to take delight in lording It over all and making poor, suffering court attendants continually opea and close windows. Nor is he given to reprimanding legal men for some trivial breach of court etiquette in tones that make their offenses as- sume the aspects of heinous crimes. The moment his lordship steps into a courtroom, one sort of has a sixtn sense that here {is not a 'supreme court judge who has permitted his office to "go to his head." His greet- ing is, commonplace. In this city, it was "Good afternoon, gents!" Look- ing over the array of legal talent be- fore him, his lordship's sharp eyes lighted on Mayor Miller of Aylmer. "Ah, my friend' Mr. Miller," he remarked "It's some time since we met last, Mr. Miller." Possessed of a keen sense pf humor, his lordship seems to find relief in interjecting little witti- cisms into the proceedings when they threaten to become heavily serious. When he addresses a wit- ness, it is in conyersational tones. He gets a witness to talk freely, re- nervousness that the average man in the box usually feels toward the great personage looming over him. And his lord- ship .also is ome of those rare" in- dividuals who is able to enjoy a joke on himself. There was evidence of this Wea- nesday afternoon when a rather free-and-easy witness in the Aylmer explosion case was being examined. The witness was telling the court about sealing the joints of tile drain laid '2 Aylmer 'on prevent the roots of trees from growing into the tile. "But no roots grow in quick- sand,' corrected his lordship. "There ain't eh?" retorted the witness, almost in tones of dis- gust. "Huh! Well, I gliess there are!" : "Oh, my his lordship, the situation. quicksand." Yes, his lordship is unusual, pleasingly so. He is for all the world like some character who has stepped out of cne of the works of the late Charl:s Dickens. mistake!" apologized thoroughly enjoying "Roots do grow in John R. Clynes, House leader of the Labor government, who admitted in the House of Commons that no government in Britain would hope to im- pose a capital levy without the full consent of the elec- torate. STRANGE SEA MONSTER. Harvard Experts to View Queer Fish at Boston. : Boston, May 1.--Experts at Har- vard University will be asked to clas. sify a strange sea monster brought to the South Boston pier by a traw- ler. The fish, having the lower jaw and tail of a shark, has a strangely- shaped head, the like of which no one along the waterfront who viewed the monster recalled. 5 The creature, 11 feet jong and weighing 650 pounds, and having a curiously "stove-in or dented" head, became entangled in the trawler's lines off Cape Cod, and was captured and killed after a struggle. Fisher- men assume the creature's habitat is in southern waters and was brought north in the Gulf stream. The Gentlemen Opposite, Milverton Sun.
