the evidence all pointed to certain
doubtful character of the neighbor-

seemed clear. he had found lawyer
to undertake his defense. At the trial,
the defendants attorney expended his
energy in trying to confuse and fright
en- the opposing witnesses. especially
a certain farmer whose testimony was
particularly damaging. The lawyer
kept up fire of questions asking
many foolish ones, and repeating him.
self again and again, in the hope of
decoying the witness into a contradic-
ton.
You say" the lawyer went on,
that you can swear to having seen
this man drive horse past your farm
on the day in question:"
Il can, replied the witness. weari-
ly, for he had already answered the
question a dozen times.
What time was thi5?"

Of the forenoon.

trapped the witness into contradic-

hand, / am quite through with you"
The farmer leisurely picked up his
hat and started to leave the witness

Easily NannsrisI,ad.

A novel mode of modern warfare
was recently tested on the ship Alice
Minot while bound from Guam to San
Francisco which proved a complete
success. During the early part of the
passage she was driven out of her
course by monsoon, and the Marshall
Islands suddenly appeared in sight,
and at the same time 200 naked South
Sea Island savages came alongside
from canoes and boarded the vessel.
They had never before seen a white
man and could not speak word of
English. They took possession of the
ship and remained until the captain
thought that they were staying there
to gain time, murder all hands and
take possession OF the ship at night.
No persuasion could get them ashore,
and as last resort steam was gotten
up IN the boiler and the warm water
thrown with a hose over them. In
less than five minutes they were all
overheard, swimming away for dear life
to the shore. Philadelphia Record.
