An Obliging Juror

It was out West, in one of those local courts where a friendly, talktive way marks the intercourse between judges, juries, counsel, and clients. A man of the law, after developing considerable eloquence and perspiration inbehalf of a prisoner, perorated by saying: "Gentlemen, after what I have stated to you, is this man guilty ? Can he be guilty? Is he guilty?" Greatly to liis disgust, the foreman of the jury, after a copious expectoration, replied : "You just wait a little, old hoss, and we'll teil you." As the poker-player would say "Foreman had the ace, and counselor passed out." - Ediioi' Drawer.
