murder, occupied the time of the court
from Thursday morning until Saturday

the jury and was well fought and contest

that the murdered man had received two
serious wounds on the back of his head,
one, an incsed wound on the upper
part, which was not sufficient to cause
death, the other "A confused one, on the
lower part OF the skull, being the fatal

TO testimony OF the physician either
wound, or both, could be inflicted by the
poker, while only the lower or fatal one
could be caused by the wooden stick; the
evidence tended to show that both
wounds were inflicted with the iron
poker and Lind also testified that

The Only Way.

MIR. William Spark in his Musical
Memoirs" tells u story of the famous
Wesley which was related to him by
Mr.. Bishop, the London organ builder
Wesley was n great extemporaneous
fugue player, and on the occasion to
which Mr.. Bishop referred had been
asked TO show off IA new organ by play
ing voluntary at the afternoon service
previous 10 the reading of the first les
son. Before going to the organ he asked
the vicar, who was an amateur organ
list, how long the voluntary should last.
"Oh, replied the vicar, please
yourself, Mr. Wesley. Say five or ten
minutes, but we should like to hear as
much of the different stops as you can
oblige us with.
When the time came, after few pre-
liminary chords, Wesley started a fugal
subject, which he worked out in mas
terly way in about quarter of an hour,
and the vicar'was about TO commence
reading the lesson when the inexhausti-
BILE organist started second subject,
and this he developed in the same alb.
struse, elaborate manner as the first.
The congregation at the end of half
an hour began to show signs of weari-
ness. The vicar beckoned to Mr.. Bish-
op and begged him to stop the too prolix
organist.
"Oh, " replied the organ builder, II
can soon stop him if you give me au-
thority and will take the consequences. "
He approached the organ blower, and
holding up half crown he said hur-
riedly: Come and take this. / am Just
going"
The blower pumped the bellows full
and made for the half crown Bishop
detained him until the wind went out
with a suck and grunt, and poor wes-
ley was left high and dry in the middle
of his double fugue.

When, however. he has in some way
managed TO get the limbs of his tree so
cut and fashioned as TO support his
| house, his hardest work is done.
The house itself is soon built and IL
made of bamboo strips and matched
| with palm leaves, All parts are firmly
dashed together with strips of rattan
palm, very tough vine, used by the
natives in place of ropes. 1t is not n
large house, though it sometimes con-
tains several rooms, but it is a safe and
secure retreat for the women and chill
dren in case of sudden attack by hos
tile tribes.
The house is reached from the ground
by long ladder or inclined plane, made
OF woven vines. In case an enemy APP
pears the ladder is drawn up, and the
man and his family and the pig are safe
within the house. The elevation not
only secures the household from wild
beasts and from the ants that roam the
country, seeking what they may devour,
but also from disease germs, which, like
tlOsc VI ytiiOW ItNtT, no nOt llSc ABOVE
certain level. The breeze, too, rocks
the house gently, like cradle, and sets
the fresh air into circulation, making it
delightfully."- refreshing after the sultry
heats below.
If you should climb the long ladder
and peep in at the door. you will find
the family, perhaps, all asleep or sitting
about the floor eating yams, cocoanuts
and bananas, and sharing them with
their pet pigs, parrots or poultry. You
will find there no pictures. toys play
things, such as even the poorest children
among us possess; no music and no
books, no furniture i'll the room, not
even bed and no mats ON the floor.

Qualifications Needed For Consu,.b,u,

Anybody at all familiar with the du-
ties of an American consul, anybody
who knows what is expected of him by
the department of state and what he is
called upon to do by the public, will
agree that he should neither be the prod
uct nor the victim of capricious politi-
cal partisanship He should be appoint
ed upon his merits after careful exami-
nation and retained upon the same ba-
sis. There should be "a career for the
consul. There should be reward for
merit, and he should suffer for incom
potency.
Primarily the consul should be gen
tleman, meaning thereby an honorable
and educated man, familiar with the
amenities and graces of good society
The next and absolutely necessary re-
quirement should be an intelligent
knowledge of the language Of the post
TO which he is assigned. He need not
be professor of German on French or
Spanish or Italian. but he should be
able to speak and write intelligently
the language Of the country to which
he is commissioned. -Scribner's
