EUCLID IN COURT
fir. Casey Proves Himself to Be d
 MafhemaiiCian.

James Casey was in police court yes i terdaY afternoon for drunkenness. He
 had 4een lying in jail since early ii i the morning trying to get sober He i was brought before the recorder. his ] Lose vying with his hair and his Eeald l in the matter of redness. Mr. Casey begged . to be released. But this i isn't the first time you've been here. " said the recorder. No" replied Mir. Casey. ''Oim here wheniver Of come
 to town yer amer. Oi always come in with money an go away iGnpty \ t5eer means the jail to me. Others may drink their haides full but when Oi get q glass a beer inter me Oim q
 subject fer the lookup"
 Mr. Casey was asked if he thought anybody had spite against him. He replied that the frequency with which he Was thrown in suggested municipal malice.
 Have you ever done anything to make anybody angry?' asked the re- corder. ''Oi Tiver iEl me lOif," said he. did anything to anybody, except meself an Oi niver had any trouble
 with amy ma-an. but One.'' Who was that?' ''Thot fwaas me own con science which is always upbraiding me fer dhrinkin','' replied MT. Casey.
 MT. Casey was dirty and looked like a hobo and a case Of scarlet fever Yet. notwithstanding, his south of Ireland accent. there was aiI attempt at grammatical correctness. which at tracted attention and led to inquiry s.I +I0 : while he wasn't the best educated man in the world, he was not the worst. "Oi can demonstrate and eIucidate any proposition of geometry said he The square constructed in the Aypoth- enuse of a right ang-e triangle is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides; forty-seyenth proposi- ton. Book l." MT. Casey's text book ill geometry had plainly been Euclid. This proposition pons asinorum is known 10 all school boys, for they cross this bridge if no other, so that Mir. Casey had not demonstrated q deep familiarity with geometry. But he went on 10 do so. He filled the air with scalene and isosceles triangles. eccentric ciIsc;es ard segments. He stated many propositions and demon srtrated them and wrought out q score
 
 Of problems. He laid down various rules. which are not apparent in the college text book on geometry. though the accomplished student always finds them. MT. Casey was certainly a good mathematician, if nothing else.
 He said he had been employed some years ago as a civil engineer by the Southern Pacific. But you know yer anner. every man has his failin S..
 There was touching thing in AIr. Casey's address. While he was re citing those mathematician, propositions his eyes filled with tears. He was probably thinking of the time when the grandeurs of geometry first burst upon his iboyish mind and when he lit tie thought that he would ever employ these noble propositions as a defense in police court.
 They were not very efficacious, for he got $:j, which is but another. name for five days.
