A case came up once before
the Eyrecourt (Ireland) petty
sessions in which the decision
handed down by the magistrates
proved them to bo worthy in
habitants of a world once graced
by the presence of Solomon. The
dispute was between two broth.

OF a couple Of ducks. One broth.
or charged the other with hay.
ing stolen both birds, and the
latter fatty claimed that they
were his own. The magistrates
resolved to leave the question to
the superiorsagacity ofthe ducks.
By their order a policeman took
the birds in a bag to q point on
the road midway between tho
homes of the contestants and
there released them. The ducks
separated, one going to the
plaintiffs house, the other to the
defendants, and, in the words Of
the official report Of the care,
''the case was settled according.
