THIS JUDGE WENT TO SLEEP

Tie supreme court of Illinois has
just handed down an opinion in case
peculiar, not for its rarity but its COM
parat1ve frequency, SAY s the Pittsburg
Gazette. The question was whether a
nap taken by a judge during trial
constitutes an error The supreme
court held that it did not, holding that
if counsel for the defeated litigant saw
that the judge was asleep he should
have either suspended the examination
of the witness or take cognizance of
the fact at the time. Judges are
human, lawyers are sometimes weari-
some, and witnesses naturally so stupid
or deliberately prolix that they are cap
able of superinducing tendency of
somnolence in guardian angel. Then
nudge sitting on bench seven or
eight hours IN the deleterious and
vitiated atmosphere of a courtroom,
perhaps upon sultry day, is very apt
to fall into soothing slumber for a
few minutes, more or less. Even Jup-
tier, we are told, nodded At the same
time 1t would be an inconsiderate, per-
haps rash act on the part of examin-
ing attorney to take cognizance, as the
supreme court delicately puts it, of the
fact that his honor had fallen asleep in
the discharge of his judicial duties. But
to lntermIt the examination of the wit
ness would have served the purpose.
The cessation of the dronipg lullaby of
direct or cross. examination might as
suredly be depended upon to awaken
into consciousness one of the seven
sleepers.

TheVaidosta Times thinks the courts
of Georgia are getting into politics.
With the judges elected by the people
it would not be surprising if some
of them got into politics In fact,
1t would be very much of surprise
if a Judge who depended upon the
people for his seat upon the bench
did not take part in politics, more
or less openly About the only way to
keep the courts out. of politics would
be to appoint the judges for life or

NO PROSPECT OF SUCCESS.

The Minneapolis Journal, after re-
viewing the published figures, looks at
1t this way: "Thej - of the South
African war and method of the
ending are foretold by the year,,s re-
port of operations by the British col
umns. The British lost 1000 and the
Beers $4,000. Superior numbers are
now telling, as the Beers probably
have not more than $1,000 men left in
the field, another half year should see
them disappear through the steady
process of attrition with a superior
force. The British may lose 5000 in
capturing or. killing the remaining
Beers, but 5000 will not be missed in
q quarter of a million, and 10000 will
eliminate the Beers. There will be a
sigh of relief the world around when
this piteous death agony of little ma.
ton is over Death is to be dreaded,
but it is better than the agony of
death" The remnant of Beers will be
able to harass the British for long
time to come, but not for a moment
since they opened war on the British
has there been the slightest hope of
their success. The struggle is being

IS YOUR THUMB MAD 2

1t Is an Infa11ib1e Revea1er of the
Presence of Insanity.
The thumb is the most tell-tale mem
ber of the human beings body, and it
is a well-known device of employers of
large amount of labor to carefully
scrutinize the thumbs of every appli-
cant for a situation before finally en-
gaging him or her for any position in
their business. In fact, so far has this
thumb science been carried that many
lunatic asylum doctors are now en-
ploying it in detecting the numerous
frauds who endeavoT each year to en-
ter the asylum on the plea of insanity.
No matter how carefully the individ-
ual may attempt to conceal incipient
insanity, the thumb will reveal 1t in
fallibly. 1t is the one sure test. If the
patient in his daily work permits the
thumb to stand at a right angle to the
other fingers. or to fall listless into
the palm. taking no part in his writing.
his handling of things, his multiform
duties. but standing Isolated and sulky,
IT is an unaswerable confession of men-
tai disease.
Specialists in nerve disease, by an
examination of the thumb, can tell If
the patient is affected or likely to be
affected by paralysis. as the thumb sig
nails this long before it is visible in any
other part of the body. If the danger
symptoms are evidenced there, an op-
Grafton Is performed on what is known
as the thumb CENTER Of the brain, and
the disorder is often removed.

Humor the Peacemak er.

If the old-time duels were always dis
graceful and sometimes fatal, they had
the merit, like all other human things
full of human error, of being fruitful
in good jokes Michael MacDonaugh.
in his book on "Irish Life and Charac-
ter" gives some cases in which humor.
from within or from without, came to
the rescue Of would -be-duelists.
A witty Dublin. barrister was con-
suited by physician as to calling out
a man who had insulted him.
''Take my advice" said the lawyer.
"and instead Of calling him out. get
him to call you in, and have your re-
venge that way. 1t will be more Sc
cure and certain"
An upstart squire went to an. old
squire for advice as to sending cffal-
lenge.
"Healy of Loughlinstown," said he.
'has threatened to pull me by the nose
whenever he meets me. What would
you advise me to do?" -.
HAS he really used that threat"
asked the squire.
"He has,"
"Well," said the squire, "Il tell you
what to do. Soap your nose WELL. and
it will slip through his fingers" -
Perhaps the most contemptuous de-
clination Of challenge was that Of an
Irish gentleman of the old school. =
Eight with himv' he exclaimed. II
would rather 60 to my grave without
tight!'

Many Uses Of 4 Banana.

Immense fortunes have been made
out of the banana business. Revenues
do not accrue alone from the sale OF
the fruit, for the leaves are used for
packing; the juice, being strong in
makes an indelible ink and shoe
backing; the wax found on the under
side of the leaves is a valuable article
of commerce; manila hemp is made
from the stems, and of this hemp are
made mats, plated work and lace
handkerchiefs of the finest texture;
moreover, the banana is ground into
banana -four. The fruit is to be sold
for dessert is ripened by the dry
warmth of f1aring gas jets in the stor-
age places in which it is kept, and
care has to be taken to prevent soften
ing or overripening. The Island of
Jamaica yields great crops of this use
full and mopsymaking fruit.
