The following extracts give us a
glimpse of some Of the singular punish
ments in vogue in old New England:
"1n 1859 Dorothy Brown, for beating
her husband, is ordered to be bound and
chained to a post"
"In 1913 the assistants order three
Stoneham men to sit in the stocks on
lecture day for travelling on the Sab

was sentenced to be publicly whipped
for reproducing the magistrates"
"In 1868, for slandering the elders,
she had a cleft stick put On her tongue
for half an hour"
Judge John Gibbons has more than
usual judicial appreciation Of humor,
and he furnishes all illustration of rustic
Intelligence recently occurring upon q
trial before him. The case was Il dam
age suit. A country lad, II or IS years
old, a son Of the plaintiff, was put on
the stand to testify as to a line fence.
He gave his testimony in SO low a tone
of voice that Judge Gibbons said to him:
"Speak SO these gentlemen can hear
YOU" pointing to the jury.
"Why," said the witness, with a
beaming smile, 'are these men inter
ested in pops case?'
An amusing incident occurred in
Judge Neely's court the other day. A
solemn faced little woman had been
called by the defense to establish ali
alibi. She had testified that the defend
ant had been at her house during the
time the OffenSe was committed and
that others We're present also, among

Judge Jeremiah Black for a long time
wore a black wig. Having donned a
new one, he met Senator Bayard Of Del
aware, who thus accosted him:
"Why, Black, how young you look
You are not 50 gray as I ar, and you
must be 20 years older"
"Humph!" replied the judge. "Good
reason. Your hair comes by descent and
I got mine by purchase"
An Indiana judge in instructing a
jury said: "Gentlemen, you have heard

the prisoner with stealing a jackass.

common one. The time has come when

An intricate Machine.


Hooks and eyes formerly we're made
by hand, the wire of which they are
formed being bent into the proper shape
with pliers; now. however, they are en-
tirely made by machines of great SIM
plicity and beauty. With pair of the
latter 1t is possible TO make two hun
bred hooks and the same number of
eyes In one minute. The operations of
the machine are first, to draw the wire
forward from the supplying reel, then
cut or the length required for hook
or eye, as the case may be; q sinker
then descends and forces 1t into a slot,
by which 1t Is bent, and two projecting
cams. acting at the same time on the
two ends, bend them over so as to form
the lateral loops used for sewing the
hook or eye to the garment then, in the
case Of the hook, It Is passed under an
other sinker, which forces the double
WIRE into another slot and forms the
hook part; one side of the slot, being
movable, is made to strike the bent por-
ton OF the hook sufficiently to fatten
il. 1t is then complete, and drops out
to make room for another.

For some time rumors have appear
cd in Print on the early resignation Of
Secretary Hoke Smith. There is no
doubt but that he has resigned and
that his resignation has been accepted.
For some days past shipments have
been made to Atlanta Of his books and
papers, and it is learned that he has
declined to set any departmental bust
ness to be heard by him for date
later than this month. 1t can safely
be assumed that successor viii be in
charge in very short time. After the
nomination Of Bryan and Sewall it be
came known that Secretary Smith was
the only member of the cabinet who
announced the purpose to support that
ticket and that this action on his part,
while not in any way effecting the per-
sonal relations between himself and the
other members Of the cabinet, seemed
30 material to him that he felt con-
to tender his resignation. The
secretary declines to discuss the sub
iect in any way.

their rifles as best they could, till four
of their number having fallen. the two

and it was their belief that he must
finally have been captured by the saw
