dispute as to whether both of tn.
feet and legs of every man are or not
of the same size was held in Judge
Gibson's court yesterday during the
trial of the lawsuit of John Kable
against the Ferd Helm Brewing COM
pany. kable scalded his left foot and
sued for damages. His lawyers claim
ed that the scalding had caused his
foot and leg to shrink. His feet and
legs were measured before the jury
by tape line, and it was found that
his left leg and ankle measured one
half inch less in circumference than
than his right. The lawyers for the
defense argued that this signified MOTH
ing, because no mans legs or feet OF
arms, either, were of the same size.
The right arm of man who was
right-handed would be larger than his
left, and the left arm and hand OF
man who was left-handed would be
larger than the right, because he used
that arm more and that enlarged the
muscles. They argued that every per-
son was right or left footed Just as he
of his legs did more work than the
other and would therefore be larger
than the other. To prove this point
the lawyers put DR.. c. O'Connor on
the stand, and he testified that it was
a fact that persons were right or left
footed, and that one leg and foot were
larger than the other. This was not
the first time that this point was rails
ed in the criminal court. In the trial
of the suit OF Mrs. Louise Fagler
against the Santa Fe Railroad COM
pany for damages for injuries received
in a wreck, her lawyers claimed that
one of her legs was so injured that it
shrunk in size, and measurements did
show that the injured leg was slightly
smaller than the other. This seemed
at the time to be Knockout blow
for the railroad company. But the
lawyers for the railroad brought a.
witnesses several statesmen in shoe
stores. who testified that scarcely any
body had feet that were both Of the
same size; in most persons one foot
was considerably larger than the
other. The lawyers did not stop at
this. They brought into court the di-
rector of the Y. M. C. A. gymnasium,
who brought book with him in which
there were measurements OF bodies OF
1900 men who had entered the gymna-
SUM for exercises. and in every one
of them one leg was larger than the
other.-Kansas City Star.

OF No Great Weiqht.

One of the signers of the late pro-
Filipino manifesto, that had it's birth in
Boston, is Professor w. G. Sumner, of
Yale University. This w~ell-known in
structor is a Democrat and rank free
trader, and it is not to be expected that
he would subscribe to n policy of a
Republican and protective administra-
ton. His signature, therefore, should
be given no more weight than that of
any other natural opponent of a Repub-
lican administration. And, by the way,
while Professor Sumner is teaching free
trade, his student listeners are as
prompt in throwing his teachings over
board after graduation as they were in
accepting them before, securing their
degrees. Free trade doctrines are not
indigenous to American soil, and al
ways will be a doctrine held by the mi
nority. So when Yale men graduate it
is not long before they drop the teach
ings of their Democratic instructor and
follow the more practical and patriotic
gospel of protection. OF the Signers OF
that anti-imperialistic manifesto, nine
only are straight Republicans, mer
probably with a grievance, the remain
der of the 80 being Democrats, mug
wumps, theorists pure and simple, anG
free silver men. Only II college pres
ident signed the address, President
Jordan, of Stanford university; Rev
Drs. Bacon and Cuyler have both re-
tired from the active ministry; Samue
Bowles achieved his reputation through
his fathers name, and from having
married a senator's daughter. He is not
a journalist, but the business manager
of his fathers paper. T. w. Higginsor
is the only eminent man of letters
whose name appears, and Carnegie is
the sole representative of the manufac-
turing interests of the country. The ar
ray of names appears weighty at first
but a study of them shows that witt
the exception of a very few, they carry
no great weight in a matter of this
kind.
