On tho Judges Side.

A story Is told of weil-known Judge
who is noted for his fondness for con-
veying to jurors, in his charges to
them, his own opinions with regard to
the merits of the case. In one case he
had done SO with great plainness, but
to his amazement the jury remained
out for hours without coming to an
agreement. The judge inquired of the
officer what was the matter, and learned
from him that one juror was holding
out against the other eleven. He sent
for the jury at once, and, stating to the
jurors that he had plainly intimated
how the case ought to be decided, said
he understood that one juror was stand
ing out against the other eleven. He
proceeded to rebuke the juror sharply.
The obstinate juror was nervous lit

done he rose and said:

Tho Telephone in scotland.

An interesting adaptation of the tele.
phone to existing telegraph lines has
been successfully made in Scotland.
The telephones used are the French
type, with microphones. The line used
has two intermediate stations, but this
in no way impaired the speaking; in,
deed, it is proposed to add another
to two intermediate stations, making
six telephones served by a single wire.
Though the telegraph instruments were
employed simultaneously there was no
interruption; and it is intended that the
telegraph instruments shall be discard
ed. Another feature of the adaptation
is that as the wire runs along the canal
the barger can fix portable telephone
on it at any place and speak to the
termini.

He was an elderly gentleman, with .

looking at number of men engaged in

story of a largo building on Chestnut

tackle that was being arranged, he &C
costed the man who was directing the
work and said:

WHAT OUR MINISTER'S WEAR.

scribed by Statute Of Congress.
Ihaye beenspervading the suburbs Of
Washington diplomacy recently with a
view to knowledge 1t would appear
that the United States never sends
abroad what nations name as am bas-
sador. An ambassador is sort of a
diplomatic king-pin, bnt we don't use
him in our game.
:, We are content with ministers and
consuls. The American court dress,
prescribed gravely by statute of 1867,
is black-black cut a la swallowtail
This severe garb is very hard costume
to wear, and makes many of our rep
resontatives look like farmhands.
This stasute of 1867 was found nee.
essary to nip budding gayety of dress,
set growing by John Quincy Adams.
1t is not my intention to discourage ad.
miration of the Adams family. 1t be-
gan we'll with old John and has main
tanned its lick with fair repute to pres
ent times.
But John Quincy, with all his bright
ness, his vigor, his wit, must now and
then have been decidedly off his mental
reservation. He wrote poetry, for one
thing, and even bethought him of MAX
ing drama, albeit he never did.
Back in his day, too, he fabricated an
American court dress-a garish thing
which would well beseem the man
with the big stick who precedes band.
Diplomats of his hour, and indeed until
the frosty statute indicated, were won't
to caparison themselves Herewith.
1t called for blue coat bedight with
buttons Of brass, gold braid and epau-
lets of the sort common in pictures OF
Gen. Scott. White breeches of the
knee species accompanied this elegant
coat and pair of white silk stockings
and shoes with big buckles completed
the story.
A cooked hat and cockade and a
sword and scabbard of gold, capable of
most gallant jingle as its wearer
walked about, put "a finish to the
Adams uniform. But congress took
away the sword and the cooked hat
dyed the coat and bre eches the color of

ROCKS IN LONDON.
Noted Bird That Is Now Scarcely Ev
Seen In the Great CITY.

Noted Bird That Is Now Scarcely Ever
Seen In the Great City.
sOne OF the most interesting birds
which still figure in London bird life is,
beyond doubt, the rook. His connec.
tion with London is historic. The rook
has long since forsaken the precincts OF
the temple, and even living memory
can not connect him with the place
But it may surprise many to hear that
we have still rookery in the very cen,
ter OF London, a sight which certainly
constitutes one of the greatest curiosi.
ties connected with the city.
Almost within a stone s-throw of the
heart of London, a little to the east OF
where Chancery lane debouches into
High Holborn, one may notice on the
opposite side of the way low arch
way. Through it passage leads be-
tween high buildings to an open space
nearly surrounded on all sides by legal
offices. The place is know as Bray's
Inn gardens, and is well kept and little
frequented. The sooty stretch of grass,
which looks rs green and fresh as it is
possible to look in the center of Lon
don, is studded with large mum Der of
tall plane trees in good condition, which
give the place a charming rural aspect
quite unexpected in such quarter.
1t is here, separated by some miles on
every side from the open country, that
there still exists in dwindling mum bers
one OF the most ancient colonies of
rocks. The nests still hang in the
branches of the plane trees, and up to
the present the birds have always re-
turned in the spring to put them in re-
pair and hatch out their young.
At one time this rookery was far
more extensive than it is now Even in
1878 there were twenty-eight full nests
in the breeding season. This year I
count eighteen nests only. An inter-
esting feature of the place and the one
which doubtless tends to attach them
to it is the care which is taken of the
birds. They are fed regularly, the food
given being dog biscuit stepped in
water. 1t is spread by the gardener on
an inclosed mound in the center of the
gardens, and it proves very attractive
to host of sparrows as well as the
rocks.
The rook, most conservative of all
birds as he is. is now almost driven out

NATURES MEDICINES.

The Advantages Of Exercise and Tenn.
perance. ~
The human stomach is surely mar
velous contrivance, or it could never as
simulate the incongruous mess that is
put into it at a luxurious, modern din
ner. Soup, fish, flesh, oil, vinegar,
wines, pastry, ices, confectionery, fruits
and numberless minor ingredients of
conflicting chemical qualities are
among the materials thrown in."
Truly, man is 'fearfully and wonder
fully made" No other creature could
exist on such diet 1t would kill a 60
rilla in month. 1t does kill, though
more slowly, thousands of that high
and mighty variety of the human race
commonly called gentlemen. Univer-
sal temperance in eating and drinking
would quadruple the general health
and add years to the average life of the
race.
Exercise is as essential to health
as temperance. In fact intem-
perate eaters and drinkers sometimes
stave Off disease for many years by
using their muscles manfully. As
rule, however, your gormandizers and
guzzlers are indolent. There is story
in the Arabian Nights" of physician
who cured sultan of plethora by intro
ducing certain medicaments into a
mallet with which the patient ham
mered every day until he fell into pro.
fuse perspiration, when the virtues of
the panacea in the mallet passed
through the fibers of the wood into his
pores This is merely an allegorical
way of enforcing the great lesson that
bodily exercise is beneficial to health
that exercise is excellent physic. Every
body who knows anything about the
mechanism of the human frame Sees
of course, that it was made to work,
and we may add that if it does not full
fill the conditions of its structure it is
sure to cosrode and drop to pieces pre-
maturely.
Exercise and temperance are natures
medicines, and they have this great ad-
vantage over all others, slass while they
promote health and long :!fe they se-
cure for all who put trust In them the
means OF independence. IN. Y. Ledger.
