A Joke Tried BY Jury,

A North Carolina paper tells the
following: At Harnett county superior
court, few years since, Judge Shipp
presiding, the trial of cause had been
protracted till near midnight. The
jury was tired and sleepy and showed
tagging attention. Willie Murchison,
who was addressing the jury, thought
to arouse them, so he said: Gentle
men, will tell you an anecdote." In
stantly the judge, the jury and the few
spectators pricked up their ears and
were all attention, as Murchison was
admirable in that line, had a fund of
anecdotes and no one could tell them
better. But he soon proceeded to tell
one of the dullest, prosiest and most
pointless jokes possible. Everybody
looked disappointed. The judge, lean
ing over, said in an unmistakable tone
of disappointment: ''Alr. Murchison, 1
don't see the point to that joke" Nor
I, either" replied the witty counsel.
"But your honor told it to me on our
way down here and as I thought the
lack of appreciation must be due to my
obtuseness concluded to give the joke
a trial by jury"

What to Do With an Estray,

Between Nov l and March 81 you can legally
take up an estray only when the same is tres
passing on your premises. After taking up the
animal you must within fifteen days send SO
to county paper, and have it advertised in
three issues. The law says So, but the Record
charges So for single animal and S3 for more
than one, So being the limit, whatever may be
the number of estrays published by one person
In one notice. If an owner appears he must
pay back to you the amount spent by you for
advertising. If the animal has brands, describe
the brands by registered letter to the secretary
of state 1.-THE brand Is recorded with that Off
cial, he will inform you who owns the brand.
You must also, In case there is no brand, or, if
branded, the secretary of state knows nothing
OF it, notify the board of county commissioners
to appoint an appraiser for the animal If the
appraised value does not exceed $50, and no
owner appears, the estray is yours at the end of
year without further action. In case the ami
NAL should be appraised at more than $50, and
the owner does not come, at the end of year
you must report to Justice, who will set date
and place for selling the animal, and advertise
the same for three weeks in a county paper and
out of the proceeds of the sale pay to you your
proper fees and charges If anything then re.
mains (Which is not likely, the Justice, after
taking whack at 1t himself for his own fee
pays the balance to the county treasurer. If the
owner appears within six months nd convinces
the county board of his ownership, the money
Is paid over to him and he goes on his way
sadder but wiser man. If the owner does not
show up within six months the Doodle passes to
the county school fund, and the only way the
owner can ever get it back Is by marrying u To-
cal schoolma'am who has saved her salary.

Tho Story Of a Bone.

About twenty years ago there was
malpractice case tried in this court
against q Bangor physician. He per-
formed a surgical operation on a pa
tient and removed piece of diseased
bone, an this was the subject of the
suit. You know, in such cases, if the
patient doesn't recover as quickly as
he thinks he ought to he becomes an
impatient and goes for the doctor with
lawsuit. There was big fight in
that case, with lots Of witnesses, and
the bone came in with the rest of the
evidence. 1t smelled worse than a
slaughter-house in midsummer when
it came into court, and it gathered ad-
ditional smell constantly sfterwarc..
The jury disagreed or there was new
trial granted, so that the case hung
fire from April to October, and the
clerk was directed to preserve the all
important bone by locking it in the
Office safe. Both parties tried to get
1t but the court would not surrenderi it.
1t generated such odors while in Gus
tody that it nearly drove us out of the
Office altogether, and If you want to
realize all about ''the scent of the
roses'' that still remains here after all
these years, although we have done
everything to get rid Of it, just put
your head into that safe.-Lewistou

The Moth as a Decorative Artist.

The Moth as a Decorative Artist.
Few persons suspect that the COM
mon moth may be utilized as decora-
tive artist, but he may be if only one
be watchful, patient and acquainted
with the creatures habits. The larva
of the moth has a habit of spinning
about itself sort of sac from the ma
terial upon which it feeds. AS the
worm grows it enlarges this sac by the
process of splitting it and inserting
new material. Now, if a moth worm
that has inclosed itself in red flannel
be afterward transferred, sac and all !,
to white flannel, the growing insect
will slit its red flannel covering and
enlarge it with portion of the white
flannel. If, then, the worm and the
sac be transferred to blue flannel, the
creature will in course of time enlarge
the sac with blue flannel, and thus
clothe itself patriotically in red, white
and blue. Entomologist Southwick,
of the park department. says that it is
no great trouble$so'put moth worm
through this performance.
