Two policemen all the time. and the weary
wanderers who come this way have to
give good accounts of themselves. Even
then they are sometimes required to go be-
lind the bars and repeat their explana-
lions in court.

OF Policeman Augusta, and l arrested
them"
What did ,hey say for themselves" the
officer asked.
lone of them said he was on his way 10

said he was on his way to his home in
Baltimore"
Well, Scott" the judge asked, what

met Scott in Alexandria, and they walked
over the road together.

The northern section of the city and SUBJ
urbs are also protected against the in
vasion by strangers who come over the
road, and who are not desired here Police
men Harries and Shannon were on duty
about lexington last night, and they ar
rested Joseph Cole and Henry Davis, young
white men, whom they found on 4th street

begging from house to house, and when ar
rested Cole had a razor on him.
Pm guilty of having the razor was
Coles plea, but had 1t for shaving pur-
roses.'
There was no evidence TO show that he
had piece of soap or a strap to keep his

Frrit I'm Hot weather.

It is a popular fallacy that the free
use of fruit in summer is the cause of
bowel disturbances. while as a matter
of fact no diet can be more healthful
at this time than one composed of fruit
and farinaceous foods, with perfectly
pure milk Flesh of all kinds decom-
poses with great rapidity both before
and after eating. and summer heats
greatly accelerate this process;
hence flesh food frequently causes
grave arrangement of the bowels, as
the poison produced by this decomposi-
ton acts powerfully as an emetic and
purgative. All meats are so heating
that they should be used sparingly dur
ing hot weather, and there is the added
argument that the whole system Graves
a change from the winters diet.

Sample Of scottish Thrift.

The Scottish American tells story
of cobbler who was sentenced by a
Scottish magistrate to pay fine of half
a crown, or, in default, "a hours hard
labor. If he chose the latter he would
be taken to the Jail at Perth. Then
I'll go to PERTH" he said, ''for have
some business there" An official con-
vcyed him to Perth, but when the cob
bier reached the jail he said he would
pay the fine. The governor found he
would have to take it. "And now" said
the cobbler 81 want my fare home"
The governor demurred, but discovered
there was no alternative; the prisoner
must be sent at the public expense 10
the place he had been brought from.

Logic without Principle.

A curious combination of logic with
lack of principle has sent French med
iical student of good family to Jail for
ten years. He had failed in his eXami-
nation and thereby lost his exemption
from military service. If obliged to
serve two years he saw no way of max
ing up the deficiencies in scholarship,
but he knew that a widows son would
be exempt from the CONSUMPTION. He
proceeded, therefore, to make his
mother a widow by shooting his father
with whom he was on perfectly good
terms, twice in the head. The father
recovered and succeeded in getting his
sons sentence reduced.

Jocko Secures His Coveted Freedom
and Causes a Great Connection
Traffic stopped for Sew

Joeko, the big monkey at Capt.
Whites museum, at Chicago, had his
liberty for awhile the other afternoon
and created more excitement in State
street than whole circus in an Indian
town.
Jocko is big and strong and bad. No
one seems to know just what kind OF
monkey he is, but Capt. White says he is
gorilla monkey" He is SO fierce that
he is kept all alone in Il big cage. No
one except his keeper, William Sexton,
and Mime. Cora, the Egyptian sorcer-
ess, near neighbor to the cage, can go
near Jocko.
The other afternoon, about three
o'clock, Mr.. Sexton went to the cage to
clean it out. During his work Jocko in
some way or other managed to get past
the keeper and bolted through the door.
Mime. Cora was sitting there, bothered
with some problem about the future,
when Jocko, with a yell of triumph,
jumped over her shoulder and found a
footing on the window sill.
This was on the third floor. Nine.
Cora yelled even louder than the mon
key and forgot everything except the
usually dull present, but she was toe
late. By the time she had reached the
window Jocko had jumped ont and to

er Sexton was sure the monkey was
dead from the fall, but the keeper kept
presence of mind enough to turn
around and run like mad down the two
flights of stairs and to the sidewalk.
Even before he reached the main floor
a crowd had begun to gather, watching
the antics of the monkey. Jocko al
first was somewhat stunned by the fall
but he recovered in time to rush at G
newsboy who ran up and tried to catcl
him. The newsboy screamed anC

opposite direction. Jocko then begaI

Chicago Chronicle, who complained
that she had disturbed the peace by
scolding him in public place. War
ner said he was driving along the boule-
ward in a carriage when his wife, who
had been separated from him for some
time. rode alongside his carriage and
began to tell what she thought of him.
Mr.. Warner did not like the things his
wife said to him and called a police
man.
When Warner saw the tears of his
wife and the crowd which was attract
ed to the court by her expressions of
grief he relented, and she was released
on signing bond never again to chase
her husband along the boulevard and
express her opinion of him in loud
voice.

AS Mr.. Sexton started after the ami

shout of warning went up from the
people who were peering out of doors

The gripman started back with a
piece of iron and took two conductors
