GOOD ONES
AZ the Jury Decided

A barrister with long experience Of
Irish turies tells the following amusing
story illustrating their eccentricities.
a man was charged with committing
a murderous assault upon another as a
result of some political differences.
The assault having been committed
at night, there appeared to be some
dificuty in identifying the assailant,
and, as a matter of fact, the counsel
for the defense made out an excellent
case for the prisoner, calling witnesses
to testify that he was nowhere near
the spot where the assault took place
on the night in question.
Everybody concerned fully expected
that the jury would bring in verdict
of acquittal, yet. to the general aston
ishment, the foreman announced that
the prisoner had been found guilty.
But" he added, observing the general
CONSERVATION created by his statement,

COLLECTING FOR THE POOR
Experience Related by a Charitable
Lady Reader of The Herald


LOS ANGELES, March 31.-Editor
Herald: 1 want to tell you about my
experience yesterday while trying to
collect some money for very needy
family.
The said family consists of widow
with five children. The eldest is a girl
IA years Of age and a cripple. The
mother sews for a living and when in
good health contrives to pay the rent
for the shack she occupies and pro-
vide scanty supply of food and cloth
ing for herself and children.
For two weeks past the widow has
been sick, very sick. The oldest boy,
9 years of age, who sells papers, is
also sick.
You can easily imagine the situation
of that poor Widows family. No money,
food or fuel and the rent due.
The way l found this out 1 went to
the little house to get some sewing
done. emptied my purse on table
| there was rs cents in it-returned home
and sent some food and coal back to
lllt ldllllly III SuCil SOIe DScu.
The next morning bright and early
l started out to collect some money to
aid the widow till she is able to work
again.
/ thought / would go to the rich;
those who live in stately mansions and
have servants to work for them; who
ride in automobiles, fine carriages, etc.
Well, / applied at the front door OF
fourteen. very swell looking residences,
but not one solitary cent did l get.
After impatently listening to my
story / would be curtly informed they
had nothing for me. The fifth house
| went to-and it was a mighty fine one,
too, on Westlake aVenue-the mistress
came to the door, and after hearing
my story, questioned me at some
length about the family. Finally she
asked:
Have you anything in writing to
show that your story is true?"
| answered in the negative.
"Well," she said, 81 have not any,
thing for you. You should apply to
the SalVatlon Army or 10 the ASSOc,-
ated Charities"
No doubt the Salvation Army and
the Associated Charities are all right,
but from what L hear the former Is
always swamped and the latter goes
through too much red tape to help one
in need quickly.
After leaving the fourteenth fine
house / turned into a street lined with
| small cottages.
The first one 1 stopped at the mis-
tress was on her knees washing up the
porch floor. After hearing my story
she said: "Why, certainly, l will do
what can" and went inside. Quickly
returning she emptied the contents of
her small purse into my hand-two
nickels. 81 am sorry" she said, "but
this is all the money L have. l meant
to buy some fruit with it; if it will
help those poor little children, l gladly
give it. John (my husband) and
are denied the blessing of having
children of our own and we never miss
"a chance to help other poor people
who have them, when we can"
From this place 1 went to other cot
tages and never failed to receive from
to so cents at each house, till l had
collected IS. A READER.

Claims To Be A Vic tim.

Honolulu, March 2I,--An Official inves-
tigation has been instituted with a view
to accertaining whether one Kali, a
Maui policemen now under indictment
for embezzlement, is not the victim of
a conspiracy to send him to Jail to the
end that Chinaman may do the govern
ment out of 500. 1t seems that Kali,
who was a policeman at Hama, was sent
by Deputy Sheriff Wittrock to collect
$500 cash ball from a certain Chinaman
there. The Chinaman gave the officer a
roll of monsy which he said amounted
to the sum in question, and the too trust
ing policeman gave him a receipt forS4oo.
Kali then rode on his way, but pres
emily it occurred to him that il might be
well TO count the money and then he dis
covered, so he claims, that the Chinese
had given him only $500. He went back
aud demanded the balance, but the Chi
naman claimed that he had paid the offic-
er the full amount, and so Kali rode
away and reported the case to Wittrock.
Attorney Ashford, who represented the
Attorney Generals department at the
last term of the Maui Circuit Court, had
Kali indicted for embezzlement andnow
a unanimous protest against this action
has come up from Hama, Deputy Wittrock
and most of the people there insisting
that Kali is innocent, the victim of the
cunning Chinese. Also, Representative
Haia has taken the matter up in behalf
of his con 'tituent.
