The Able Argument That Saved a Cracker
From Going to Jail.
There are four bosom companions in
Jacksonvillc-the broker, the dentist, the
undertaken and the capitalist Where you
see one Of them you will find the rest
taking drink. The undertaken and the
capitalist admire the dentist and the bro
kcr because they can tell such wonderfully
clever stories The broker and the den
fist revere and love the undertaken and
the capitalist because they are such Won
derfully good listeners
This happy, admiring quartet form an
ideal round table, and around this round
table the two listeners often hear good stO-
ries by the dentist and the broker. The
dentist is an imaginative sort Of u story
teller, who manufactures iinnlc5 to fit in
cidents. The broker is a great reader, Il
realist and a philosopher.
one night the broker told of a lawsuit
in Alabama. \ cracker from the noun
tains was ON trial for shootiuuan wound
ing "Digger" He was arrested, and,
having no money, the judge appointed the
broker TO defend him. The broker was NOT
a lawyer in the legal sense OF the word.
but the judge who was an old college
mate of his. said he was am idiot because
he wasn't one; in other words, that ho
was a lawyer 10y instinct Thr broler cross
questioned the witness briefly, sending in
now and then IA sarcastic and discomiiting
trajectory. When he camo to make u
speech, nc said
/ "Gentlomen of the jury, l have taken
great pains TO show you that my client
was respectable citizen. Zen Witnesses
have assertcd--on oath, mind you-that
he stands high in his community.
The defendant was feet inches tall,
and the jury smiled.
He stood high in his community, and
that is sufficient. Now for tine law. We
find in the thirtieth verse of the sixteenth
chapter of Gritty on Plcadlues' -Chitty,
gentlemen, was one of the bIaNcst generals
in the Confederate arny-this well estab-
lished principle Of law. ~
Here the broker snaps his eyes together
and adjusts his glasses, holds the book far
oil, eleVates his chin and reads:
ono respectable white man can be
guilty Of crime
THAT, gentlemen, is enough. l leave
the case in your hands,
Each juror changed his quid looked al
his neighbor, nodded and, Without leav
ing their seats, rendered loud and en-
phatic verdict of Not guilty and ther
joined in three cheers tor the defendant
and his law! =.
The und, ualer found fault with til,
story because nobody in it had been killed
The dentist remarked THAT if anybod,
deserved killing it WAS the broker. -tlori

The true account Of President Kruger's
recent canine analogy is too good to be
lost When the reformers called upon him
and began to thank him for their release,
the old man looked at tncm for II moment
and then said ironically: "Some dogs
which have been beaten lick the feet of
their master. Others stink away and snarl
and try to bite again. l hope you are not
going to snarl any more. " There was II
painful pause, broSen at length by u loud
guffaw, as the president turned to the in
terpretcr and said: you needn't translate
that. It's only my little joke. " His hon

rized here: "You have asked me to be mer-
ciful to the remaining prisoners, and will
answer you in "A parable There was once n
naughty little dog, and it was beaten. 1t
was right to beat that dog, because it was
naughty. But what should be done to the
owner of that dog, who stood 10y and said,
Saa. Then, dropping the parable the
president exclaimed: Rhodes is the owner
of that dog! What shall be done to him?'

Brimful of fun.
She must DO pretty to laugh so prettily-
Such laugh couldn't belong to a trump;
Humorous, too, to see things wittily-
Probably plump.
There, now. She's off again. Peal upon peal
of it,
Clear as q carlton, soft as n bell.
Why, it infcotous I'm catching the feel oft
Chuckling as well.
What Was dreaming? That musical melody
Trips up the scale arpeggio,
So like a voice that was hushed-ah, welladay-
Long, long, ago.
Heigh hol To think of what little straws
tickle us!
just girls laugh-and my laughing one lies
Silent, and we'll now, this is ridiculous
Tears in my eyes!
