man is living here yet. So are many of his for.
mcr pupils There was a time when the boys
of the school were infatuated with the game of
jack-straws, and the quiet of the school room
came to be disturbed at times by the dropping
out upon the floor Of the varied shaped pieces
of iron that did service as Jacks. Finally the
edict went forth that no more jacks should be
brought into the room.
The mandate was well enough obeyed for a
time, but one day boy who has since grown to
manhood and commercial prominence in the City
Of the Straits neglected to leave his precious
jacks in the outdoor cache he had provided for
the purpose As the little fellow arose to march
with his class to the recitation bench one Of the
jacks rolled out upon the floor, setting all the
pupils a,giggling. Proceeding on his embar.
rassed way the remaining pieces ratified in his
pocket loud enough to attract the masters dread.

eyes, overlooking his spectaces, gowered down

"What then, sir, is that noise hear in your

"W-w.w.why," fsltered the frightened hoy, at
his wits end for an excuse to escape the dreaded
rod. "Ww'w'w'why n'n'nothin', sir. It's only

y THE opinion of the Lancaster
New Era, "while the work of
Il passing upon the various appli-
cations for license and regulat-
ing the liquor traffic may be unpleas-
ant and burdensome to the judges
there is no place where the RESPONSE
bility can be reposed with as much
confidence and satisfaction to the mass
of the people. The court can generally
pretty accurately guage the genti-
ments of the various communities in
terested in pending license applica-
tions, and If they fall into error the
fault generally lies with those good
citizens who are free with their criti-
cisms in their limited circle but who
lack the public spirit or moral cour-
age to endeaVor to substantiate their
accusations in open court. To transfer
the responsibility OF granting licenses
into lay hands, who would not be di-
rectly responsible to the people, would
be terrible blunder."
The ability of LAY hands" to ad-
minister wisely the responsibility of
granting licenses may be underesti-
mated. In small counties with rural
population predominating the problem
rests lightly upon the bench, as it
would upon laymen. But in counties
like Schuylkill, Luzerne and Lacka-
wanna the task of supervising the
hauor traffic, both in the matter OF
awarding or rejecting license applica-
tionsand in the running down of speak
easies and other excise violations is
not only incompatible with the judicial
Office, more closely representing a po-
lice function, but is of sufficient magni-
tude and intricacy to keep a distinct
department of government busy
throughout the year Excise commits
. sioners, either appointive or elective
would constitute an experiment at least
worthy of fair trial.

The Courts View of It's own Lenity.

fudge HAMILTON FINNEf, who is visiting
J friends in Kansas City, was formerly police
Judge here, and he has by long odds the time
record for holding a case under advisement.
Twenty years is the time and the case is not
decided yet,
1t was when Judge Guinotte was young law
student in the office of Tiohenor Il Warner. He
had case in one of the Justices courts one day,
which had been postponed on two or three oc-
casions, On this particular day he demanded a
trial. The lawyer on the other side, a man
very unpopular with all judges and attorneys
grew abusive. Then he became insulting that
young Guinotte's French blood boiled over and
he threw a heavy inkstand at the man, striking
him on the head. The result was that Guinotte
was arrested for disturbing the peace. He went
before Judge Finney the next morning in police
court.
care you guilty or not guilty?" asked the
judge.
"Guilty" answered Mr.. Guinotte.
Ordinarily that would settle case. The Judge
is supposed to have no alternative except to pun.
ish. Judge Finney scowled.
'Young man." he said, "ths is a case OF a
most aggravated assault. You actually struck
this man with an inkstand It's so serious IN
take the matter under ad,isement."
He still has II under advisement, and the rea.
son can be understood from the conversation be-
