JUDGE HAWKINS,

Judge Hawkins once had to sentence
an old swindler. and gave him seven
years. The man in the dock squirmed
and whined. "Oh, my lord, I'll never
live half that time" Hawkins look
another look at him, and answered.:
81 don't think it is at all desirable
that you should"
The formality of asking a newly
convicted prisoner if he has anything
to say why sentence should not re
passed upon him brought another re-
tort from the judge. A prisoner in
these circumstances usually says
nothing, or curses at large in his :age,
but one of them struck a theatrical
posture, and with his right han1 in
the air shouted: May the Almighty
strike me dead if I don't speak the
truth. / am innocent of this crime"
Justice Hawkins said nothing for Ii
minute, when, after glancing at the
clock, he Illuminated in his most i'm.
pressive voice: ''Since the Almighty
has not thought fit to intervene. I will
now proceed to pass sentence. Ar
gonaut.

10 INTERVENE.
SHE OFFERS HER MEDIATION TO
PREVENT WAR.
But il Conflict Comes She viii Side
With Spain Because of Her Finau-
cial Interests.

NEW YORK, April AT G:3O to-
night a cable message from the
French Ambassador at Washington,
containing a communication to Me-
Kinley, began coming over the wires.
Hardly had this message in cipher be-
gun when there was a message from
the Spanish government at Madrid
started to Senior Bernabe, the Spanish
Minister at Washington. For hours
these two messages ran.
From inside information received in
this city it is known without doubt
that the message from France to Me-
Kinley means that France has decided
to intervene, and, if possible, prevent
war between the United States and
Spain. 1t was said further that In
case of war the French government
would take sides with Spain against
this country. 1t is said to have also
stated that France would brook no
war which would imperl the large
debt due from Spain to the citizens of
France. Spain's debt to the Roths-
childS is enormous.
The message from Spain to Senior
Bernabe notified him of the action CT
France and also gave him instructions
by which he will act for the next few
hours during the impending crisis.
WASHINGTON. April lit is re-
ported tonight that long cipher ~
BILE has been received by Ambassador
Cambon from Paris. 1t is understood
to be communication from the
French government asking whether
there are any good offices it can exert
i'm behalf of the maintenance of peace
between the United States and Spain.
IT is said to be far from menacing IN
its tone and to be. in fact. couched in
the most friendly language. admitting
the provocation of the United States,
and vet urging that a resort to war
be avoided if possible. Cambon re-
fused to admit the receipt of such
message and Judge Day denied that
il had been communicated to the State
Department. II could not be deliv-
cred before tomorrow. as il was in
cipher and would take time for trans

MAKES ANTS INTOXICATED.

Sir John Lubbock has gone to the
ant again, and if he keeps up his Wis
its and others initiate him that inter-
esting insect will become useless for
Sunday school purposes. Sir John sue
ceeded in getting fifty ants hopelessly
drunk, and then placed them outside
an ant hill. The sober ants came out,
picked up their friends and put them
to bed to sleep off the effects of Sir
Johns liquor; the strangers, however,
they sternly rolled over into the little
ditch.
