Some years ago there was an old judge
on the bench in Berks county, whose deci-
tsions. in consequence OF numerous revers-
ais did not always command universal re-
,spect. One day in case in which he was
sitting, one of the lawyers lost patience
at his inability to. see things in certain
marked that the intellect of the court was
so dark a flash of lightning could not pene-
trate it. For this contempt the Judge
showed a disposition to be very severe with
the offender and it was ny after much
Welded and decided to accept public apol-
ogy. The following day the lawyer, &C.
cordingly appeared before his honor and
made amends by saying: 81 regret very
much that said the intellect of the court
was so dark lightning could not pene-
trate it. guess it could: 1t is very pene-
trating thing. kansas City Star.

A FEW DAIRY POINTERS.
Eon cannot clean dirty milk.

You cannot clean dirty milk.
Clean milk never comes from a dirty
can.
You cannot get milk from a starved
COW.
Sal soda is better than soap for clean
ing dairy utensils.
Only the rich man can afford to keep
poor cows; the poorer the farmer, the
better his few COWS should be-
Keep an account with each of your
cows, and learn If they are helping to
support you or not. Get returns for your
care and rouble.-Epitomist.

An Psychologist and an Assyriologist were
disputing about the relative advancement of
the two ancient peoples whom they were
studying.
"Weli, SIR" said the Psychologist, I'VE
find remains of wires in Egypt which prove
they understood electricity!"
"Pshawl" answered the Assyriologist.
Owe don't find any wires in Assyria. and
that shows they knew wireless telegraphy."

WANTED TO GET RICH
Novel Scheme Of Three Ex-
Messengers Boys to
Make Money.


Three boys, two of whom had at one
time been in the messenger service Of the
Postal Telegraph Company, were ar
raigned in the First Criminal Court this
morning for obtaining money under false
pretences. They were running sort of
"get-rich-quick" concern" scheme, which
to say the least, was ingenious. The
three accused boys were William Nc
Guirk, John Mooney and Frank Nc
Guire. McGuirk and Mcclure are the
two previously employed by the tele-
graph company. Neither had given up
all of their uniforms when they left the
company's service. One still retained his
cap and the other his uniform trousers
Mooney appeared to be treasurer.
Mcclure and McGuirk secured some
blank kilograms and envelopes used for
dispatches from another boy in ,the. en-
ploy of the company. The boy did not
know what the blanks and envelopes
were to be used for.
A few nights ago Mr.. Herman Ber-
man, of No. 343 Fourth street, was
aroused from slumber by McGuirk, who
handed him the following enclosed dis
patch:
.Charpe 70 cents
sMay a 1908.
III. Berman, Jersey City, N. j.;
1884 First street.
"Call for me at Ellis Island tomor-
row. Steamship. sPhil."
Elias Kraus, of No. $50 Henderson,
received a similarly enclosed dispatch.
1t SO happened that Mr. Berman was
expecting the arrival Of certain party
at Ellis Island, though whether the writ
er of the dispatch knew this, is matter
Of conjecture. Both men were told that
the dispatches could not be delivered
until the dispatches were paid and both
handed up the sums designated on their
respective kilograms.
1t is not known how many people have
received such bogus kilograms, but Man
ager Aaron G. Ackerman, of the Postal
Telegraph Company's office, at No. 80
Montgomery street, has received nur
nierous complaints, Among tile COM
plainants was Mr.. Berlnan.
Mr.. Ackerman investigated Mr.. Ber-
mans story and his investigations led
to the arrest Of the three boys named
above.
The boys were paroled in the custody
of Chief Of Police Murphy for trial.
They are to report at the Chiefs Office
every Sunday morning ID their best
clothes, hair combed and shoes polished.

to Take Action Against John Meyer

S. and w. board Directs Its Counsel
to Take Action Against John Meyer
The members Of the Street and Water
Board this morning directed Messrs.
Queen and Tenant, the lawyers, to pro-
ceed against John Meyer for libel At a
meeting of the Twelfth Ward Improve
ment Association held in Spitznagles
Hall, Lincoln street and the Boulevard,
on Wednesday evening, Meyer created a
sensation by viciously attacking the
Board. He declared that the members
were after the new company which was
about to take charge of the trolley lines,
and intimated that the officials were re-
ceiving money besides their salaries.
At their conference this morning the
Commissioners directed Messrs. Queen
and Tenant, who were present, to de-
mand of Meyer that he either deny that
he ever made the statemnts attributed to
him, or retract them In case he refuses
to de either, the lawyers were directed to
begin suit against him in the civil
courts. They were also directed to look
up the law, and if they found such a
course advisable to bring the matter to
the attention of the Grand Jury.
