German robacconist,s joke.

The following fraud upon an insur-
ance company, which we find in The
Deutsche Tabak-Zeitung, is certainly
just little too good to be true. A cum
ming fellow, who wanted to smoke tbs
best cigars at the cheapest possible cost.
bought 200 cigars of the highest quail
ity and corresponding price and imme-
diately insured the whole stock. When
he had smoked the last of them, he de-
manded $50 marks from the insurance
company on the ground that the whole
of his insured stock, 10 boxes of cigars,
had been consumed by fire! The Solo
monte court decided in favor of the
plaintiff The company then brought
an action of conspiracy against the
smoker, accusing him of having inten-
tionally put fire to his own cigars and
deliberately destroyed his property.
Hereupon the same wise court con-
demned the insured smoker to three
months mprisonment.-W estminster
