IN HONOR OP
JUDGE KELLY
Dinner at Jcrmijn bu Members of
the Lackawanna Bar to Cele
brate His Election.
THOSE WHO ATTENDED
W. A.' Wilcox,, as Chairman of the
Committee Which Arranged for the
Dinner, Introduced City Solicitor
A. A. vTosburg as the Toastmaster
of the Evening Toasts Responded
to by Judge Kelly, W. S. Dlehl,
George M. Watson, Frank L.
Phillips, John M. Gunster, James
Gardner Sanderson Poem by Rich
ard J. Beamish.
Lackawanna lawyers seem to never
tire ot displaying their admiration for
Judge John P. Kelly, their brilliant
young brother, whom their efforts as
much, If not more, than anything els?,
elevated to tho honorable position Into
which ho recently came.
Lust night they further attested
this admiration with a complimentary
dinner given at the Jermyn. And it
was a compliment. It wan probably
the most representative assemblage of
lawyers the county has ever seen and
each seemed to vie with the other In
doing honor to tho guest of the even
ing. The applause which greeted Judge
Kelly when he was formally Intro
duced at the conclusion of the dining
wns a veritable ovation nnd the gray
haired seniors, judges nnd ex-judges
among them were the most enthusi
astic of the applauders. It was an
honor that comes to few men at Judge
Kelly's time of life.
Incidentally, it was also a highly
enjoyable affair. As is their wont In
all things, the lawyers "made the most
of it" and as all who were present
will agree the occasion was full of op
portunity. The very first speech was the signal
for an outbreak of quips and Jibes and
good naturcd raillery that would put
the Clover club to shame. The wits
of the bar were all there and they
were at their best.
THE PLEASANTKIUri.
To be Interrupted in the midst of a
flowery bit of eloquence with a cry of
"speech," or, If the address had the
semblance of having been first con
fided to paper, to have It met with
"hand up your papers" is not pleasant
at least for the speaker, one would
say, but with the lawyers it was taken
for grunted that a man is not to be
"pliazed" and so that sort of thing
goes, without offending.
Kvery one voted It a success and
warmly congratulated tho commlttej
of arrangements. W. A. Wilcox, John
IX. Kdwnrds, Clnrence Uallentlne, Wal
ter Briggs, John M. Corbett, AVllllam
H. Jessup, jr., Frank M. Lynch, John
F. Reynolds and Hon. M. F. Sando.
The dinner was preceded by an ln
iormnl reception in the Turkish room.
The lawyers, as they arrived, were
ushered thither and presented to the
guest of honor by the chairman of the
banquet committee, William A. Wil
cox. At 9 o'clock, the dining began. The
tables were arranged to form three
Hides of a triangle, with the orches
tra occupying n place at the open
end.
The intiM- side of the top table wa
vacant. Tho far side, nearest the
Sprue street end of the dining hull
was reserved for the prominent fig

Waiting?
For what','
Simple as tho question Is, ono
would bu safo hv -staking dollars
for one honest answer, considered
from a common-sense standpoint.
The world Is full of people who
uro WAITING wafting ,for some
thing to "turn up." So long have
their Imaginations magnified their
desires that, with the great ma
jority, an aimless waiting has be
come; a fixed habit a sort oC
mania; and the dawning of Eter
nity's morning will find many uf
them still waiting. A sad plight,
indeed.

THE ABSENTEES.
Judge Edwards' absence was duo to
his being mlled,tn Doylestown to hear
arguinentn In two cases tried before
him some time ago. Illness prevented
Colonel Fltzslmmons from unending
and responding to the toast, "The
Senior Rar." A telegram of regret was
received from Deputy Attorney Gen
eral Fred W. Fleltz, who was un
avoidably detained In ilarrisburg.
Landlord Godfrey evidently believed
the lawyers wore used lo pretty good
feeding. This Is whnt he presented for
their delectation:

Tho speeeU-sjiaklng was opened by
the chairman, Mr. Wilcox, In the fol
lowing choicely trm-doi tribute to
Judge Kelly:
Iticnlllns the fact that when a bar dinner vvaa
last proposed a canvass- rrfiulttd In fluillntt less
than a dozen who would take patt, tlie present
committee, It mut Ik- ciiifeiHed, had sonic slight
misgiving about undertaking a banipu-: 01 this
kind. c tan all fee Irom the numlur heie pres
ent how little oiculon there wass for question
tliU time. True there sue some alwr.tecs, but
it Is due to them lo say that they lime all been
detained on unnirvii-rahle (.tcusci. The. commit
tee have tiied to cuuid the imitation to every
member of the bir and have loiind in, one but
Itronsly de,lred to tome hiie and assist in celi
liMtiiiK tlic election of Judgo Kelly oee.liee
justly lcgarding him as a triendj as one of the
most genial of men; and as one ot the combined
lustre of whoso learning intelligence and in
tegrity will suidy ulvc new- honor to and nev
coiilldencc in tho judiiiaiy of our guat com
monwealth. Such a testimonial rnnnot but .strength) n tho
high puipnse and conlldimc of lilm to whom P
conies 11.1rtieul.1rly whin it is known that It is
the spontaneous unanimous compliment of lift!
whole bar absent as well as present without
distinction of politics, aue. sex, race, color or
previous condition of pcivitude.
It is appropriate that this should be an oc
casion of much good cheer and neither the
toasts nor the speakers are a specially serious lot
jet one sentiment there is which wo may not
pass wide h liny appiopriately lie sepinleil a
little Horn the others. And so the committee
have eliieeled me to propose it inyadi before
pre-scnting tho toat master of tho evening.
Awxlatod with the name of one who was
with us when we last met around the banquet
table, but absci't. sadly n, tonight, it is a sen
timent vvldcli will find quick response in all
jrur heaits, and I ask that .vou will rise and
ell Ink it with me in .-Heme. I piopo-e to .,u
"'Iho Memory of .Indue fiunster."
I take gie.lt pleasure in pioscntin,? to jon the
Ri'iitlciiiiu who has been selected to .nt, .is jour
to.istni.isUr, .Mr. Vosliurg.
AN ELOQUENT SILENCE.
Mr. Wilcox was accompanied all
through his address by a fuslluele of
happy "flings" and frequently Inter
rupted for long periods by uproarious
applause, but when ho tlroppeil his
voice to propose a toast to the memory
of Judge Gunster a deep hush fell over
the assemblage and a silence that was
more eloquent than the most expres
sive words attended the rising toast
and continued for many moments af
ter the diners had resumed their seats.
The jollity, however, btoke forth
again as City Solicitor Vosbttrg was
introduced ns toastmaster, "Oh, Mr.
Longfellow," enmc from some wit at
tile lower end of the upper table .-mil
it might be said lnughter was kept up
Incessantly until the gathering broke
up at midnight, except for the tlni
that Judge Kelly was speaking.
Mr. Vosburg had an unusually large
and excellent fund of good stories and
he told them In his usual clever style.
AVhen he came to his reference to the
guest of honor ho showed that he could
also be eloquent.
"This ellnner," he said, "means Just
what It purpoi ts to mean. It Is n
gathering of Judge Kelly's brethren
to express their admiration for one
whom they regard as an esteemed
citizen, an ornament to the bar and 1111
honor to the bench."
Judge Kelly was visibly affected by
tho reception he was accorded upon
bslng presented by Toastmaster A'os
bttrg. AVhen the applause had subsld
rel he proceeded to say:
JFDGE KELLY'S RE.MARKS.
"Mr. Toastmaster and Gentlemen: I
thank you sincerely for this leeeptlon.
1 thank you heartily for tho honor this
dinner accords me. It Is a serious mo
ment for me: I can not attempt to
bo anything but serious in what I say
to you tonight. There have been great
changes with me during the past few
months und they are duo In a, great
measure, If not almost entirely, to thu
members of the bar. Accept my sln
cerest thanks for your kindness-os.
can thank you for many things. 1
own inuny things to tho members of
this bar. I owe to them seventeen
years of pleasant practice; I evvo to
them my appointment; 1 owo to them,
if not entirely, very largely, my elec
tion, and I owe to them entirely this
honor I receive tonight.
"I feel seriously the importance of
the position Into which I have been
elevated, I appreciate the greatness oC
the man whom I succeed, that model
judge, that model of Integrity, tho kind,
Just, courteous, able Judge Gunster,
If I was assured 1 could In somu meas
ure illl the gai) his departure has
made I would bo satisfied that my ca
teer on tho bench wauls ue eminently
successful. I also reullzo what efforts
are required for ono to begin to meas
ure up to the standard or tho local
bench set by our worthy president
Judge und the senior additional law
judge. AVhat Is expected of 1110 1 fully
appreciate und I assure yuu I will
btrlvu inv utmost to meet the require
ments, "I hope tho good feeling, tho mutual
confidence which hus existed between
myself and other members of the bar
will continue. Let mo say along this
line that tho lute campaign from
which Brother Watson and myself
have Just emerged leaves no bitterness,
no enmity In me. I have no scores lo
pay. The election is past and gone.
This, I urn glut! to say, npplles to
every members of thu bar. Again,
gentlemen, I thank you most sincere
ly." Round after round of applause
marked the conclusion of Judge Kelly's
remarks.
Following Judge Kelly IoiihIh were
responded to an follows! "Tho Bench
as Seen from the Rar." AV. S. Dlehl,
"Writs ot Estrepment," George M.
Watson! "Compulsory Arlhtrntlon,"
Frank L. Phillips! "Wurso nnd Verse."
Richard J. Beamish; "Tho Junior Bar."
John M. Gunster; "Torts," James
Gardner Sanderson,
Mr. Dlehl during 11 brief serious po
rloel of his response happened to say:
"It. Is not for me to say how the bar
looks upon the bench," "Don't, don't,
keep that quiet," some one cried out
and Mr. Dlehl had to take n new tack.
Mr. Dlehl started to loll a story about
Itlnckstono. Some one with serious
air Inquired: "Who the deuce Is he?"
and tho laugh nearly "phtiKed" tho
speaker.
AVRITS FOR ESTREPEMENT.
Mr. AVatson told In a truly humorous
vein, of his efforts to find out what
"writs of cstrepement" meant, mnk
Ing several happy hits on the judges
and lawyers. In his concluding re
marks, Air. AVatson said: "I had an
old uncle who was wont to console me
with, 'George, when It rains, let It
rain.' Like Judge Kelly, I ansfny t
boar no malice towards anyone ns a
result of the campaign we have just
passed through. I tun a firm believer
In thnt gootl old American doctrine
of majority rule being the law ot the
land. Judge Kelly, I congratulate you
on your victory, antl I hope you will
fully fulfill every hope reposed In you,
every promise you have made."
Three cheers for AVatson were given
with a will and a "AVhat's the matter
with AVatson?" evokotA ji (thunderous,
"He's nil right," and It had the true
ring of heartiness to It.
Mr. Phillips' reputation as a story
teller suffered none by his effort ,1nst
night. He concluded with ono of the
best things of the evening, a toast
which ho says was loaned him yester
day by his friend, Marshall P. Wilder,
whom ho saw in New York at tho
horse show. It was, "Hero's to our
wives and our sweethearts; may they
never meet."
Air. Beamish read bis poem nt this
juncture. It was provocative of nn un
ending succession of laughter, ap
plause and witty interruptions. It is
as follows:

THE JUNIOR BAR.
During the course of nn eloquent
tribute to the "Junior Bar," Air. Gun
ster referred in most complimentary
terms to Judge Kelly, churaoterlzlng
him us a man of peculiar Illness for the
position he occupies; one who enjoys
the respect of tho whole community,
antl one wlio can be expected to add
some new lustre and more reknown to
the Lackawanna, bench.
Air. Sanderson proved himself an
entertainer eif no mean ability and it
wits with regret that the assemblage
saw him sit down, notwithstanding
that It wus then long past tho mid
night hour. Ho can be counted upon
us u. fixture on the -progrumnia of bar
banquets.
