Breaking Up a Witness.

In no way can barrlsters better dis
play their acuteness than by seeing at
a glance the character OF the witnesses
they are about to examine and by
treating them accordingly. Erskine
was famous at this. In case In which
he was engaged a commercial traveller
came into the witness box dressed In
the height Of fashion and wearing O
starched white necktle folded In the
Brummel fold. In an instant Erskine
knew his man, though he had never
seen him before, and said to him, with
an air of careless amusement, "You
were born and bred in Manchester,
perceive" Greatly astonished ut this
opening remark, the man admitted
that he was. "Exactly," observed the
great cross examiner In CONVERSE
uonal tone. II knew 1t from the abb
gurd tie Of your neckcloth."
The roars Of laughter, coming from
every person In the court, with the
single exception OF the unfortunate
witness, which followed this rejoinder
completely effected Erskine's purpose,
which was to put the witness In a
state Of agitation and confusion be-
fore touching on the facts concerning
which he had come to give evidence

happened at that cherry tree but the
parties that took part in the game.
Therefore hearsay evidence will have
to go.
The cherry tree grew on a side hill
among lot of powders. They'd have
made powerful good cover for Injuns
in the old days. They made powerful
good cover for something quite as bad
on this day I'm telling you of.
Barron picketed his cayuse at the
foot Of the hill and climbed up to the
tree. He was astride of limb and
had about picked the basket full when
he all Of sudden discovered a grizzly,
something like the size of well grown
bull, meandering along after cherries
too.
Well, there was that cowpuncher up
the tree without even his gun-he'd
slipped It Off when he started to climb
the trunk-and big bear standing on
his hind legs and stretching himself
to reach the boys dangling feet.
Soon's the bear saw he couldn't claw
him out he made up his mind to shake
him out, and only that Barron shook
out on the uphill side and away from
the bear did he escape that time.
Then come n game OF lodging around
them powders. Barron was light and
active, but the bear was eager and
bound to make an example of the first
Teller he'd caught In his orchard. And
the old devil was wise too. He seem
ed to keep between Barron and his gun
all the time.
Well, them two circled about there
a dozen times until Barron was well
nigh played to a FRAGILE. But twas
run or die, and Barron suddenly found
himself dead anxious to live even II
he had been throwed down by q girl In
the east
There was a rock few rods away
that looked high enough to make It a
good place to be on, and he knew griS-
Elies aren't usually much on the climb.
So, getting dead sore on his present gy-
rations, Barron broke for the rock.
He reached 1t Just ahead Of the bear.
and that's all.
The trail was three good miles away,
but the air Is clear in these parts, and
Minervy carried a good pair Of glasses
when she rode out. l suppose she rode
toward the range that day because her
heart was In that direction. Leastwise
through the glasses she seen two black
hggers on the hillside, one on top Of
the rock and one gyrating round It.
They looked funny, and she rode over
and saw 1t was man and bear.
Then she rode nearer and saw who the
man was.
Run for help7 Guess mott Minervy
was born and bred In this country, and
she had a hair lariat slung to her sad
dlebow. Barron tried to keep her away
from danger, but she rode right up
within proper distance, dropped the
loop over that bears head us pretty as
a picture and then set her pony down
the hill at canter.
Before Barron could get his gun and
run up to the grizzly the brute was
choked plumb dead. And reckon
right then and there Barron decided
that girl who knew what to do for
man besleged by grizzly would wear
a dern sight better in this country than
a girl who looked pretty behind a tea
table,
Leastwise, he and Minervy filed the
basket with cherries again and rode

Barron had had hard Jolt from a
girl in the east We didn't know about
that at first and couldn't understand his
deep rooted antipathy to everything
In petticoats about Goshen's ranch
house. He was hardly civil to Mrs.
Goshen herself, though she was old
enough to be his mother, and when her
nleces came up from Walla Walla to
spend a couple of weeks Barron beg
ged to go off with Gingerface, the va
quero, and Tom Smalley after stray
cattle. But one of the girls, and the
smartest and prettiest of the lot, MI
nervy Bowles, remained at the ranch.
He spent most of his time lodging her.
He'd change Jobs with anybody about
the place, no matter what the Job was,
If he could only keep away from the
ranchhouse, and the boys soaked 1t to
him well-'deed and they did.
But Minervy would corral him now
and then, and twas just beautiful to
see how she played him when he was
hooked.
She'd corner him on the veranda and
get him talking about the east and
about college and bugs and minerals.
She wasn't no SLOUGH on education her
self. Minervy wasn't, though she
wasn't letting on to Barron. He must
have judged her callber from seeing
her ride and shoot, and he set her
down first card out of the box as what
the eastern papers call "a product Of
the wild and woolly west" He was
used to seeing girl all fixed up In
silk and furbelows presiding at a tea
table or something like that.
But l want you to show me the fe-
male creature that amt match for
the male every time. Minervy didn't
start in caring brass farthing for
Barron, but 1t piqued her that he still
fought shy. She just laid herself out
to bring him down. nd-well. you
know the old saying about playing
with fire.
My woman was cooking for the
Goshens then. Reckon one woman
most usually sees another womans
game first. She let on to me before
many weeks that Minervy was just
about eating her heart out over young
Barron.
! didn't believe II at first. Minervy
seemed just the same when Barron
was around as ever-snappy and full

THE RECENT RUSSIAN NOTE.
Official Statement Regarding It Made
nv Fiscal Agent Routkowsky.

Mr.. NJ. Routkowsky, the financial agent
Of the Russian government at Washington,
has, by direction of the home authorities,
made the following official statement re-
garding the recent note of the Russian min
lister of finance, relating to the Brussels
sugar convention:
in view of the erroneous Interpretation
by many organs of the American press of
the object and meaning of the recent note
of the Russian minister of finance, sent to
various governments, whose representatives
have signed the Brussels convention on sup
preston Of bounties on sugar, NJ. Routkows-
ky, financial agent of the Russian govern
ment in the United States, has been in
structed to communicate to the American
press that in case of the negative answer
of powers to the above mentioned note and
the establishment of a countervailing duty
on, Russian sugar, the imperial Russian
government shall consider the establishment
of such duty an infraction of its COM
mercial treaties with powers SO doing. and
therefore free from obligations imposed by

them and at liberty not to comply with
their stipulations, whenever it will be to the
advantage of Russia"
Many of the American newspapers, NJ.
Routkowsky explained, have interpreted the
note referred to as move on the part OF
the Russian government to inaugurate a
European coalition against American trade.
Such an understanding, he declares, is en-
tirely incorrect and does the Russian gov
ernment an injustice. The note was sent
by Russia to the governments participating
in the Brussels sugar conference and also
to the American government merely an
act of courtesy, the United States not hav-
ing been party to that conference. In re
teliaton for the countervaiiing duty against
Russian bounty sugars imposed by the
United States, Russia now imposed her
maximum tariff rates. The object of the
statement issued today, NJ. Routkowsky
says. is to show that Russia is not engaged
In any effort to wage a campaign against
American trade, but to make plain to the
party to the Brussels conference that the
imposition of countervaiiing duties against
Russian sugar will be met as it was in the
case of the United States.
The question of the legality OF the coun-
tervailing duty on Russian sugar is now
pending in the United States Supreme
Court.

line close to the boundary. After these
come the Sconcatori, then the Datoriin-
nanZi, and then the Datorlindietro, who
closed the lines. The players on each side
wear different colors. This year, when the
game was played in Florence, the colors
were red and blue.
The game itself consists of neutraI throw
ing a ball against a slab on one OF the
walls around the place, where the game is
played. The 1nnanZi Immediately try to
catch the ball when II reaches their lines
and throw il to the Sconciatori at their
back; who, in Their time throw it to the
Datoriinnanzl who must then try TO send
it over the fence of the opposing party
But, as there is usually a battle to fight
with the opposing party before this can be
done, the DartorinnanZi throw the ball to
the Datoriindietro, who are in a more pro-
tected place and have a greater chance of
success. When the ball is thrown over the
fence of the opposing party, that finishes
the game.
Sometimes clever Innanzi may win the
game by himself by seizing the ball and
reaching the enemy's fence, by lodging
backward and forward among the lines.
But this is very difficult and seldom sue
cessful. In olden times the game often
ended in real hattie, in which one at
least of the players was killed. The game
CT calcio is always played in medieval cos

to be played on the occasion of a princely

ever, since 1883; but in 1898 1t was again
played in honor of the visit of King Hum
bert and Queen Margherita to Florence
and the most noble families of the city
