Court Martial Witnesses.

All court martial witnesses who are
Protestants are sworn by laying their
right hand, ungloved, on the Bible,
closed or open, while the oath is re-
cited. Kissing the book is frequently
required in addition to the laying on of
the hand. Raising the right hand and
keeping it raised during the recital of
the oath is also a form adopted by a
number. There are many who prefer to
affirm rather than to swear, and those
are accommodated by saying: "You do
solemnly affirm, - instead of 'solemnly
swear the right hand being raised
or placed on the Bible as before. Form
erly it was required to place the right
hand on the open Evangelists. e.
In swearing Roman Catholics, the
Bible is closed and has marked on the
outer cover cross, generally cut out of
white paper and pasted on. Sometimes
a crucifz is placed upon it, which the
witness, after the oath is recited, kisses

How They Told Them Apart.

"Then, as l looked the other way on

But they looked precisely like those in
the first dish, and l wondered how
anybody could tell them apart if they
should ever get mixed up. AS long as
they were kept at the ends of the able

be very simple; but suppose some po-

Suppose one dish should in this way
work along the table until it was along
side of the other; or, for that matter.
suppose the dishes should change
places, as they might easily do, who
could tell then which was hard and
which soft? / found myself rather
amused by this idea, and I asked the

Dumb Luck.

nearly made me crazy. was in a pool
room down in Baltimore, and I was
playing close to the cushion. Nothing
came my way, and had but a few dol
lars between me and the touching of
some friend for stake. I saw little
fellow come in there with a So bill and
get out with 81, 402 in cash. I WASH t

it was all over he told us his system,
and it almost made me dafy to think
that any such fool scheme would go

noon, and he played them all. He par
leyed his money, and s1,402 is what he
pulled out. If he'd had a good sized
roll when he started, he'd have broken
the room sure, and every other room in
the city. And what do you think his
system was? You couldn't guess in q
thousand years. He placed the seventh
horse in every race. He started at the
top and counted down to the seventh,
and she won. Then in the next race
there were but four horses, and he count
ed one, two, three, four and then start
ed at the top again and counted five,
six, seven. He played that horse and
won. That was his scheme. His pick
won every race. And what do you think
made him do it? His girl told him to.
Luck? Why, some people have it to
burn, and he was one of that kind. Not

scheme work. I tried it for week,

The rapidity with which the different
zebras have been exterminated, owing
to the advance Of civilization in South
Africa, is shown by reference to such
works as that Of Sir CORVALLIS Harris,
written in 1910, In which the author
tells us that the quagga was at the time
found in interminable herds, bands
Of many hundreds being frequently
seen, while he describes Burchell s ze-
bra as congregating in herds Of 80 or
100, and Astounding to a great extent,
but now, after the expiration Of but 90
years, the one species is extinct CT
practically so, while the other has been
driven much farther afield and its num-
bers are yearly being reduced.
This authors description of the COM
mon zebra is we'll worth repeating. He
says: Seeking the widest and most

exceedingly difficult to approach, as
we'll on account Of their extreme agility
and feetness of foot as from the abrupt

ture of the approaching danger, and

over yawning ravines, where no less
agile foot could dare to follow them. : s
OF Burchell's zebra he says, Fierce,
strong, feet and surprisingly beautiful,
there is perhaps no quadruped in the
creation, not even excepting the noun
tain zebra, more splendidly attired or
presenting. a picture of more singularly
