Servants and the Law In England.

Recently a domestic servant ap-
piled to London judge for help in
getting her trunk from an employ
er. She said that she found the
house when she first went to work
there very different from what she
expected. She wanted to leave, but
her employer would not allow her
to 90. At last she managed to get
away, but her employer would not
give up her belongings. The judge
thus explained the English law of
domestic service: 'sThe law as re-
CARDS domestic servants is compli-
Gated. In the country servant can
leave at the end of the month after
giving a fortnight's notice, but in
London the practice is that serv-
ant must serve the first month out,
and then she may give fortnight's S
notice You know, you can't walk
out of place like that without re-
garding any one else's convenience.
If you want your goods, you must
take action in a civil court. shall

NV YORK. cons....d Courts.

Legal matters have come to such
pass that the average jury case
cannot be brought to trial inside of
two years, a condition Of affairs
which frequently amounts to COM
plete denial of justice. There are
on the calendars of one court alone
in the single borough of Manhattan,
New York city, more than 11,000
cases awaiting trial, and the full
capacity of that court is not over
5000 cases a year. When the Grim
inal courts opened in October, 1908,
there were no less than 3o7 bail
cases and l67 prison cases awaiting
trial. This means that there were
at that date 167 men under lock and
key whose guilt or innocence had
not been determined Since then
some of those prisoners have been
declared innocent. = Everybody's

cUpID's STRATEGY.

Two young men of this neighbor-
hood were rivals for the hand of a
pretty girl. One of them was poor
and handsome, and the other was a
slow witted fellow with considerable
money. The capitalistic one con-
ceived the idea of buying off his ri
val. He offered him 500 to go
away and stay away for six months.
The poor young man said he would
consider the matter. And he did
in company with the girl. They
agreed to take the money of the
young man, get married and go
away together The deal was COM
pleted, and the poor young man got
his money and started for Denver.
But he stopped at the first station,
where he was joined by his lady
love, and they were married by a
justice of the peace. The rich
young man consulted a lawyer and
was told that he had no grounds
for a suit; that the young man had
kept his agreement by going away ;

Raxina For Error.

1t seems only fair that person
who has been wrongfully sentenced
to death should receive some sort of
compensation if the mistake be dis
covered in time. They recognize
this in Austria, though not any
where else A woman named There
sa Gietzinger underwent this tragic
experience. Her sentence was COM
muted to penal servitude for life,
and recently, after she had served
some years of her penalty, it was
discovered that judicial error had
occurred. She claimed an indemni-
ty of 1900 crowns, and the govern
ment has now accorded to her 4.S73
crowns and pension of 500 crowns
per annum.
