 Hunting used to be called the sport of kings, but not many of the m, ern crowned heads keep up the old tiadi- ton. The Czar of Russia occasionally assists at a battue, but the thing bores him and he goes only out of poitenes5. The prince of Wales is a very good shot and is fond of shooting, but his big-game days are over. The empsrof of Germany hunts and shoots t'od deal, but those who know him bess say he does not much care for the sport With him it is matter of tradition the right thing for royal parsonage to do. The king of Portugal, who holds the record for fatness among all the royalties, is physically disabled from such violent exercise. The king or Sweden never touches gun. The sul- tan of Turkey cannot bear to see one. says the New York Commercial AdyeF- tiser. T4e king of the Belgians has shot only once in his whole llfe, ana then In very unkfngly fashion. lie wanted to have the sensation of killing without the trouble of going in search Of the game.

Shortly after the passage of this enactment Judge Lester was holding court in a little town, when suddenly he suspended the trial of case by ordering the sheriff to lock the doors of the courthouse.
 Gentlemen" said the judge when tho ooors were closed, q have just seen pistol on man in this room. and 1 cannot reconcile it to my sense of duty 70 let such violation of this law pass unnoticed.

This Is all right" said the judge, 'but you are not the man saw with the pistol" Upon this another lawyer arose and laid down a Colts revolver and dollar bill be- fore the judge, who repeated his for mer observation. The process went on until nineteen pistols of all kinds and sizes and shapes lay upon the stand, together with nineteen dollars by their side. The judge laughed as he con- plfmented the nineteen delinquents upon being men of business, but ada ed that the man whom he had seen with the pistol had not come up, and, glancing at the far side Of the court. ha continued: "I will give him one minute to accept my proposition. and if he fails I will hand him over to the sheriff . Immediately two men from the back of the court rose and began to move toward the judges stand.
