"By the mark, Reminiscences of Juatice Grantham and Lord George Sanger. London, Dec. 31.���Justice Sir William Grantham ot the King's Bencn Division, who has just di. d In London, was a good deal of a character. He was noted for what was regarded as too great freedom of speech ln his judicial opinions���hls "blazing Indiscretions" these comments have been called, and he was inclined to be truculent and hadl frequent /llffer- ences with people, but withal he was a genial kindly man witfi his friends and neighbors and did not hestitate to tell a joke at his own expense. One of his stories was that his appointment to the bench was due to a misunderstood remark. A distinguished Jurist with whom Sir William was on close terms of friendship in the latter's younger days said onco that whatever Sir William, knew of the law he was a good judge of horseflesh. This remark came to the ear* of the Lord Chancellor, who understood It to mean that Sir William would make a good Judge, not of horseflesh, but of the law. That misunderstanding, according to the story attributed to the late Justice, brought him a high regard in the Lor! Chancellor's estimation and caused his appointment to tbe bench. Another story about Sir William was that after protesting vainly to a man who was smoking ln a non-smoking railway carriage, he sought to hears of them atacking men ln lonely camps In the manner of wolves The dingo never barks, but hla weird howl is a familiar sound ln the bush nights and is blood-curdling In the extreme and trying to the nerves of the new chum camped alone in the bush for tbe first time.

London, Dec. 31.���Officials of the Government, and particularly of the War Office, are wonJering whether war medals, Including those for special service, have not been issued with so lavish a hand that their possession brings no feeling of pride to many of their recipients. More tban 30,000 unclaimed war medals are in the oidnance stores at woolwlch and the authorities have decided that these shall be melted If application for thm is not made soon. Fw, If any, o f the general auction firms have not bad war medals tor sale at one time or another. One of the best known auction concerns, which makes a specialty of articles prized by collectors, sold a Victoria Cross recently. Military men are discussing the matter of adopting a new system of recognition for war service and one of them expressed the opinion that poverty alone would Induce a soldier or his relations to sell war decorations. While there were war medals Issued in Britain as far back as 1G4:> by Charles I., the practice of giving, them by the wholesale was not begun until all officers and men who served at Waterloo were authorized to receive them. Britain's frequent wars since then have produced a flood of these badges of a grateful country'* appreciation. Rudyard Kipling has testified that he has often seen "tho frontier plalster go for liquor on the toss," but no man, be declared, would sell his Victoria Cross. B.C. Mills limber and Trading Co.
