UNUSUAL LEGAL DECISION.


But 1t Was EmphaticA1ly Endorsed by the
Spectators.
~ heard the late Judge John r.
Grace Of the court Of appeals Of Ken
lucky set aside the verdict Of jury
once under circumstances that to my
mind did him infinite credit, said Rep
resentative John 8. Rhea of that state
to Washington Post representative.
ut seems that poor woman, who
was on the verge Of starvation and who
was the sole support Of four little chill
dren, went into a neighbours smoke
house and purloined piece of bacon.
The proof was positive, and the jury
reluctantly returned a verdict of guilty.
When the finding Of the jury was read,
Judge Grace, who at that time presided
over the Fourteenth judicial district,
rising to his feet, said in the most en-
phatic tones:
The court orders that the verdict
in this case be set aside, and / want to
declare here that in all cases where an
unfortunate woman is on trial for steal
ing food, taken to keep her offspring
from starving, it will require Is men
to convict her Of the crime in this court.
The defendant is discharged from GUS
tody.
1.-THE announcement was greeted
with applause from the spectators, and
the general sentiment was that Judge
Grace had acted not only as befitted a
chivalrous man, but that his ruling
was right. Theft to keep innocent
babes from perishing Of hunger can
scarcely be called crime"

Turks and Meerschaum.

According to the best authorities
upon the subject. the idea Of using
white talc in the manufacture Of pipes
is Of comparatively recent date, COM
pared with the age of the habit Of smok-
ing, and what is still more curious is
the fact that in the oriental countries
which produce white tale, or meer-
schaum, as it is called. and where the
use of tobacco forms part of the educa-
ton Of the faithful, the people never
dream of making this substance into
pipes. They make bowls and goblets Of
it, but no pipes 1t may be that the
long pipestems which allow the smoke
to cool and lose its acridity before
reaching tho mouth leave the oriental
smoker quite Indifferent in regard to
the quality Of the bowl. AT all events,
one never sees Turk with a meer.

She Wears Her Cross.

The up to date woman wears her
cross if she is SO fortunate as to possess
one. As an article of jewelry this SYM
Dol Of suffering is as popular as it was
in the days Of the grandmothers. When
the grandmothers were girls, the pos
session Of handsome bejeweled cross
that could be worn as pin, hair or
nament or locket amounted almost to
badge of aristocracy. The black ones,
studded with diamonds or pearls, or
both. were highest in favor, as they are
today. The fashionable Cross must be
antique looking. Not everybody's
grandmother possessed one, however,
SO the jewellers have come to the rescue
of the woman who did not fall heir to
one and are bringing out exquisite de-
signs in Roman gold. Most Of them are
studded with precious stones, and many
have backgrounds of black enamel. It
is by no means taking form Of per-
sonal adornment, but the women like
it.-New York Sun.
