A Banquet of Wine and Tobacco

THE banquet held at the recent centenary of American jurisprudence, in New York City, was especially noted for one thing, and that was, according to a spectator, its wines and tobacco. Says the New York World:—
"Those legal potentates have been magnificently dined and wined. . . . It was apparent that the fame of the alluring but potent Bar Association punch had reached the ears of the uppermost court. . . . Now the United States Supreme Court is launched for its second century upon a sea of wine, music, and liquid eloquence."
