There is a good Fleet street story, says a writer in the London Daily Citi zen, of how a reporter once adjourned the house of lords. He bad worked in the gallery of the house of lords for about a quarter of a century, and It may be that familiarity bad dimmed his sense of reverence. One day there had been a stodgy little debate with a dozen members in the house, and the reporter, with his colleagues perched in the gallery, was thoroughly sick of the whole business. His feeling 9 found outlet in a muttered remark as some noble lord on tbe cross benches rose to continue the debate. "Why don't you move the adjourn ment?" said the reporter to himself. He said It louder than be Intended, and the words reached tbe noble lord who had just risen. He on his part believed the words to be a private hint addressed to him from the lord chan cellor, and, feeling that be could not disregard the suggestion, be said, "My lords, I move the adjournment of the debate." Instantly the lord chancellor was on his feet from the woolsack, and their lordships' house rose for tbe day.
