A JOKE ON THE
COUNTY JUDGE
Death Stared Him in the Face, But
1t Was Another Mans Corpse.

Sheriff-"Us! We! Well, l call
that gall. why 1 never diagnosed the
poor devils case. 1 never pretended
TO he a phySician-l never gave him
any medicine. l never gave him a
remedy simply to save expense to the
county. But was in favor of sending
for DR.. Watts. All 1 know is that,
whereas the Mexican came in here yes
terday alive, he is astiff corpse now.
and the worst feature of the thing is
the MeXicans think you were too stin-
gy TO get doctor. and they say they
believe you poisoned him.
Judge-''Well. don't that bea-
Hades?"
Sheriff-"The mans dead. and the
next thing to do is to bury him. I'm
der all the circumstances 1 don't think
the county ought to be put to expense
of his burial
Judge-"All right: I'll pay all the ex-
penseS. and although l don't approve of
anything that looks like haste: yet at
this time of the year l think it best to
put him under the ground as soon as
possible.

THE COMING PLAY.

The coming of Blatchford Kavanagh
and Roney's Boys to the Mar opera
house next Tuesday night is causing
no little excitement. The little ones
are working like SO many little beav-
ers and great number of tickets have
been sold by them.
H. B. Roney the man who is in
charge of the boys is an organist and
choir master of many years experience.
He was Blatchford Kavanagh's teacher
and much of that singers success as
a boy was due to him. He has brought
out many other we'll known boy singers
and the youngsters who are coming
here with him are all pupils. They do
not sing the class of simple songs usu-
ally expected from children but render
music of the best composers. They
sing together in duets. trios and quar-
tets as well as solo work entirely from
memory and without accompaniment
The concert in fact promises to he a
musical treat.

him.
Judge-"Good morning. Pat, how are
you, old fel (giving candidates shake);
any news out your way?"
Pat-"Nothing much, but as came
through Mexico saw a large gathering
of MeXicanS and rode down among
them to Sc what the racket was about,
and heard them cursing the gringo
judge, and they told me you had pois-
cned one of their countrymen, and they
intended making it hot for you election

JudgeA"Great heavens. Garrett,
Why there amt word of truth in it
and l can prove by Baylor and Barn
hills clerk, that l only recommended
some simple purgative pellets
Pat-"Well, 1 hope so, Judge, for if
you don't every Mexican in Uvalde
county will vote against you, and you'll
be defeated. But here comes the dep
uty sheriff from the Jail; maybe he can
throw some light on the matter"
Judge-"Good morning Scarce;
(anxiously) how about that Mexican?"
Deputy-"What Mexican?"
Judge-"The Mexican, Juan de Dios,
that came here sick yesterday"
Deputy-"Oh. that fellow. Why, he
left here this morning before daybreak.

Not many years ago statesman now
prominent in our capital city was run
ming for the office of county judge.
Simply as a means of Identification, we
will call him Judge Gardner.
The campaign was hot, the issue was
doubtful. and all canvas was set to
catch the popular breeze-the harp of
a thousand strings was twanged, and
economy in affairs dwelt upon.
Just before dusk one evening. q dus-
ky son of the land of the Emperor
Montezuma. entered the suburbs of the
beautiful little town of Uvalde-weak,
sick. and debilitated. and applied for
aid to the county officials.
Ii was necessary to keep him alive.
as his vote was as good as Sturman s
a COW man who weighed $50 pounds
gross weighr-but it must be done in
an economical way-as that would also
make Il few votes-politicians always
have these spells just before an election
and forget them just after one.
The judge sized him up. thumped his
ribs. made him stick out his tongue.
and diagnosed the case. saying it was
unnecessary to put the county to the
expense of sending for physician. and
prescribed big dose of dynamite pills.
After feeling his pulse. an order on a
drug store was given and the pills duly
administered. The simple child of ma
ture however. instead of following the
directions and taking three pills every
tire ehours. reasoned that the quickest
and surest way to reach the seat of the
disease, YVES to take the whole box at
once.
The next morning the sheriff. who
was president of the Uvalde Badger
and Snipe club. unlimited, met the
Judge at the court house and put on
an assumed grave face, when the fol-
lowing conversation occurred:
Judge-"Good morning Henry what
the news?"
Sheriff-"Well. bad enough for you. "
Judge-'WhatG 90 YOU mean"
Sheriff-"WeI. that Mexican you
loctored is dead.
Judge-"Dead, Great heavens. Bay
Tor. | am afraid at this time especially
its going to hurt us in the election. and
we had better straighten the matter UP

The Sampson-Schley row-but we are
tired of both.
Morgan wants the United States to
go ahead with the canal irrespective
of treaties with Great Britain. The
senate committee on foreign relations
yesterday made an adverse report on
the resolution declaring that the rat
ification of the Hay-PauncefOte treaty
was not necessary for the construction
of the Nicaragua canal. and Morgan
turIA in minority report, jumping
on the majority and the president.
He holds that our treaties with the
Central American republics are Just as
binding as any with European powers
and that we must go ahead. The state
department. is poking up the British
foreign office. IN the effort to get some
sort of action on the amended treaty
but nothing definite is expected soon.

The Ceremonial Ride.
There are some interesting problems
connected with the etiquette of the
ceremonial ride from the white house
to the capitol. By tradition the out
going president sits on the left hand on
the trip thither, giving up the post of
honor to the new man, while on the
way back, the order is reversed. AS
Mckinley are both of him there are
difficulties. 1t would be an extremely
bad thing to have the president of the
United States beside himself and it
will be giving Hanna an undue emf
nence, if, as proposed. he rides with
him. Besides il would be an extremely
painful operation if he sits on either
the presidents right hand or left
hand. Hanna is a heavy weight.
