LAWYER MADE AN APOLOGY.
Revised the Opinion as to the intellect
Of the Court


Some years ago there was an OLD
Judge on the bench in Berks county,
Pa, whose decisions, in consequence
Of numerous reversals did not always
command universal respect. One day,
in case in which he was sitting, one
of the lawyers lost patience at his in
ability to see things in a certain light,
and in the heat of the moment re.
marked that the intellect OF the4court
was SO dark flash Of lightning could
not penetrate it. For this contempt
the judge showed a disposition to be
very severe with the offender, and it
was only after much persuasion by
friends of the latter that he yielded
and decided to accept a public apol-
ogy. The following day the lawyer,
accordingly, appeared before his honor
and made amends by saying. Il re-
greet very much that said the intel
lect OF the court was SO dark lightning
could not penetrate it. L guess 1t
could. 1t is a very penetrating thing"

How Snakes Decoy Birds.

That the rattlesnake uses his tail
to decoy birds has been observed a
number of times by a correspondent
of the Scientific american, who says:
"The snake hides himself in the tall
grass and initiates the buzzing of a
bee. The insectivorous birds, such as
the phoebe and kingbird, are attract
ed by the sound, and become an easy
prey for his snakeship. | have seen
rattlesnakes concealed in the dense
foliage of trees twenty feet from the
ground practicing the same deception
on the birds and getting the bird
every time

Microbes Hard to Kill.

That the microbes which cause dis.
ease cannot be killed by firing them
out of a gun has been proved in Off
cial government experiments. Mi
crobes of malignant postule, of alb
scesses and of the intestine were
smeared upon the face of the gun
wad, put next the powder and fired
into sterile gelatin mad agar-agar. In
each case the microbes developed,
each after its kind, in the medium re-
ceiving the wad.

OUTLOOK BLUE.

Reports from the grain raising
districts of the Northwest are
most discouraging. Everywhere
the fields are flooded with water.
Wheat in shock is thoroughly
wetted and nothing but the most
favorable weather can save it
from great loss. Even wheat in
stacks is suffering from the driv-
ing rains. Wind storms have
been frequent in many places
and they drive the rain far into
the stacks.
Predictions as to the extent of
the damage that may be done are
many and as they are all purely
guess work they vary widely.
The tendency is to be too pessim-
istic and the chances are that
the losses will not be as heavy as
figured now with the amount of
rain that has fallen. 1t the rains
should continue, the losses Of
course will increase.
This season has had two par
allels in the past fifteen years.
The year 1900 was most recent.
In that year, however, the crop
was failure before the rains
came by reason of the great
drouth in the early summer.
Enough of the crop had been
moved before the rains started
to show that it was Of fine quail
ity. The other year that re-
sembled this was 1891 and it had
great yield, being known today
as one of the largest the North
west has known
The crop this year was fine in
quality, as shown by the grain
that came before the rains be-
came general Grades will be
reduced by the rain and to what
extent remains to be seen.
There are many claims that
the loss to the farmers Of the
Northwest will average ten cents
a bushel but grain men generally
put the figure at from 5 to 10 per
cent of the crop which would
not be quite as high.
It is not grain alone that is
suffering. Hay is ahoat in
meadow, potatoes are rotting in
the ground because of it's water
soaked condition and all things
that grow are suffering.

Small Boys Distinction Between Ap.
petite and Patriotism.
Gen. o. o. Howard occasionally ad-
dresses juvenile patriotic clubs. An
organization Of this: type entertained
the veteran at sociable and dinner.
A little chap near the general dis
played good appetite. "You eat

Much Red Tape Over a Cent.

short one cent il his cash at his last
settlement with the government, made
up the deficiency out of his own pock-

found an arithmetical error whereby
Uncle Sam had been overpaid to the

partment sent the postmaster draft
for one cent, which he has just re-

in the world is in the city of London,
on the corner of Cheapside and Wood
street, about midway between the
Bank of England and st. Paul's 1t
is an enormous oak and is said to be
100 years old. 1t is protected by a
clause in the deed of the property
which forbids destruction Of tree or
branches. Architects were compelled
to plan a rather peculiar building to
avoid the branches. There it stands
in the corner of one of the. busiest
streets in London, occupying ground
of enormous value-and positively
the only tree in the city of London
outside of the parks.
