at Arcadia, in Russia, during a profess

ed in the Courier des Etats-Unis, and
is as follows:
"a Frenchman, visiting a fashiona-
BILE concert garden, stopped a passing
Russian officer and asked for a light
for his cigar, which had gone out. The
officer, after a moments hesitation,
handed his own cigar to the French
man, and looked on with a smile of
resignation at the latters frantic eff
forts to get a light.
You are French, I believe? said
the officer.

If heredity is worth anything,
Queen Alexandra may well hope for

while her father, King Christian TX,

jesty has two younger brothers, who

gratulations to his elder sister, the
Dowager Duchess of Anhalt, who en-
tered on her 91st year on that day.

Portugars plucky queen, who recently
received the German medal for saving
life. Her Majesty is a keen sportswo-
man, and can handle her gun with a
precision which is positively deadly.
Queen Helena of Italy is another clev-
er shot. She spends much of her time
in her pretty little hun..ng lodge in
the Island of Monte Cristo, and is as
clever with the revolver as with the
rifle. The Duchess Carl-Theodore of
Bavaria and her sister, the Archduch-

The Man with the Black whisker,

Georgia has stringent law forbid
ding its citizens to carry pistols on pain
of FORGETTING the weapons and paying
a fine of $50 or being imprisoned for
thirty days, says the New England
Magazine. Shortly after the passage
of this enactment Judge Lester was
holding court in a little town, when
suddenly he suspended the trial of a
case by ordering the sheriff to lock the
doors of the court house.
Gentlemen said the judge, when
the doors were closed, 81 have just seen
a pistol on a man in this room. and /
cannot reconcile it to my sense of duty
to let such a violation of the law pass
unnoticed. 1 ought, perhaps, to go be-
lore the grand jury and indict him, but
If that man will walk up to this stand
and lay his pistol and fine of 81 down
here, I will let him off this time"
The judge paused, and a lawyer sit
ting just behing him got up, slipped
his hand into his hip pocket, drew out
a neat, ivory handled six-shooter and
laid it with 81 down upon the stand.
This is all right" said the judge,
but you are not the man 1 saw with
the pistol
Upon this another lawyer arose and
laid down a Colts revolver and a dol
lar bill before the judge, who repeated
his former observation. The process
went on until nineteen pistols of all
kinds and sizes and shapes lay upon the
stand, together with $19 by their side.
The judge laughed as he complimented
the nineteen delinquents upon being
men of business, but added that the
man whom he had seen with the pistol
had not yet come up, and, glancing al
the far side of the court, he continued
'1'll give him one minute to accept
my proposition, and if he fails, l will
hand him over to the sheriff"
Immediately two men from the back
of the court arose and began to move
toward the judges stand. Once they
stopped to look at each other and then
coming slowly forward, laid down. theiI
pistols and their dollars AS they turn
ed their backs the judge said:
This man with the black whiskers
| is the one that / originally saw"

THE VALUE OF A HUMAN LIFE.

Juries differ so widely in the valua-
ton they put On human life that the
average thinker must wonder whether
after all the jury system is the best
system for getting justice.
A case in point is that of Lawrence
Willsen, of Lexington avenue, New
York city, a butcher in good circum-
stances, who brought a suit against
the Metropolitan street railway Of that
city for $4,000 for the death of his s.
years old son, who was run over and
killed by one of the cars of the rail
way. The case was tried last week, and
the jury rendered it's verdict last Fri
day, which was for $500.
Justice German, before whom the
case was tried, felt so outraged by the
finding of the jury that without being
asked by the plaintiffs attorneys, he
set aside the verdict and ordered a new
trial. 1t seems that there were ten
men on the jury who insisted upon a
larger verdict, but two thought that
$500 would be sufficient and refused to
even consider any amount larger than
that The result was that the other
ten agreed to that amount.
Sometime ago Judge Addison Brown
of the United States Circuit Court fix
ed the value of life according to age
as follows: At thirty 81 800; at thirty
seven, the same amount; at fifty 5000
Some juries. however, have given
verdicts for very much larger amounts
For instance. the value of the life Of
Louis Eberhard, killed by the Metro
politan Railway of New York city. was
assessed at $19,25s: that Of George B.
Rhides, killed by the same railway, at
S37, 900. and that of Vincent Scarpete,
killed by the same railway. at $25, O0O
on the other hand there have been
some ridiculously small assessments
To one Of them we have already called
attention. The life of Mrs. Tracey, who
was killed by the Union Company Of
New York city, was valued at cents.
and Judge Gummere of New Jersey
valued the life of a child at 81. Judge
Robinson Of Connecticut valued the
life of Antonio Petrillo at $40.
There were special reasons no doubt
for the small valuations which judges
have made. For instance, Mrs. Tracey
wss 10 years of age, and il may be
that Antonio Petrillo was Of no benefit
to his family or the community. The
wide difference in the assessments
made by juries. however, can only be
accounted for on the ground of undue
influence or the lack of proper APP
probation Of the value OF human life.
because when a case goes to a jury II
Is enc, as a rule, where there are rea-
sons for regarding the life, which is
the basis Of the suit, as having been a
valuable one.
