An Oriental Wonder.

prone to err in telling ones fortunes, but
not SO, 1t is claimed, with the mysterious
Japanese idol, which Is now holding forth

succeeds in telling the many different for
tunes during the day, and not a person

everybody is invited to go and have their
fortunes revealed without expense.

JUDGES VIEW OF VERDICT.
Says 1t Was Most Outrageous One He
Ever Heard.


THAT is the most outrageous verdict I
have ever heard" said Judge Kimball in
the Police Court yesterday afternoon, when
the jury in the case Of john H. Brooks
rendered a verdict of not guilty. The
charge against Brooks was that he had
kept his bar open on Sunday. The wit
nesses for both the government and the
defense testified that liquor was drank in
Brooks place shortly after IL o'clock Sat
urday night, but Brooks asserted that it
was bought before that hour.
After Judge Kimball charged the jury as
to the law in the case the latter retired.
but was out only a few minutes when 1t
returned with a verdict of not guilty After
using the language above quoted Judge
kimball told the jury to be seated and
said he was seriously considering the pro-
priety of discharging it for the remainder
of the term, which will expire Friday next
Thus the case stood until the jury in an
other case went out, when Judge kimball
decided to take no further action in the
matter of the verdict.
