The caserta ,came1lis Tree.

The Caserta Cnme1lie Tree.
In the days Of Its glory the palace at
Caserta Of the king Of Naples had
among it's features so called English
garden, made in 1852 by order Of Marie
Caroline of Austria. 1t was bright with
flowers and wonderful rare oriental
plants and trees, so that it was re-,
nowned throughout the world, but the
crown and glory Of all consisted in
eamellia tree, q plant then unknown
In Europe. The seeds were collected
as though fakes Of gold, and the queen
used to give them and cuttings Of this
camellia as presents to her friends,
These cuttings were most highly priced,
and thus 1t has become European
flower, so much 80 that the expor1a-
ton Of camellias is an extensive indus
try in central Italy, and in Germany
there are vast feds Of them. In us
palmy days the Caserta plant had eight
branches, the largest Of NS'ich was
twelve inches in diameter. the whole
being thirty feet high. This mother
nlant was in fourishing condition up
TO few years ago, but lately the gor-
geous garden has been allowed to fall
into decay, and with it the glorious
camelIia. Mall Gazette.

NAPOLEON's ACCOUNT BOOK
Some Entries Made During His Exile
at st. Helena.

Some Entries Made During His Exile
at ST. Helena.
There was recently sold in London
the last book Of accounts Of Napoleon
at st. Helena, from 1918 to 1921. The
expenses are classified by month and
were kept by Pierron, the ex-emperor's
maitre d'hotel, with entries by Mont
holon.
There are many corrections in pencil
by the august exile himself, for be
verified all the accounts and changed
English money, where it was used, into
francs. Some Of the entries are highly
interesting. Thus, on Aug. Is, 1919,
the fete of the emperor, here is one by
MonthoIon: Artificial flowers, f5. Ex-
traordinary expenses, Fl 5s."
Napoleon's resources at st. Helena
were very modest, but his tradesmen,
as regarded their prices, never forgot
that be was an emperor-though an
exiled one. Among other occupations
to while away the time that hung so
heavily on his hands, Napoleon went
in for gardening, and among the en-
tries are found: "Four watering cans,
Fl S.; 2 pairs Of pruners, 93; 2 axes,

exile was simply regarded as subject
for fleeing. "For mending the emper-

Toward the end Of his life Napoleon's
nourishment consisted almost entirely
of chickens, pigeons, and eggs, and
there are numerous entries for medl-
cines. In March, 1921, for instance,

prunes, two cases Of Burgundy plums;
in April, ten bottles Of sirup, eight doz-

f;t for a nlace in the Jury box.


It is appalling to think of the very
fountain of justice being dehled.
Gentlemen, when the people lose con,
fdence in the verdicts of juries and
the judgments of courts. we are but a
short step from anarchy Nothing, in
my opinion, is no conducive of lawless-
ness, as contempt for the adminlstra-
ton of justice by the courts.
A short while ago, while holding
court in another county l sent a petit
jury out, charged with case. After
being out several hours on a case IN
which they ought to have agreed upon
verdict in few minutes, I had them
brought into court. You can imagine
my Indignation and modification, when
T saw that one of them was drunk, and
found out that when they went to their
room, they found whiskey and beer
stored away there, and, worst OF all,
that a good many of them had drunk
of it. I tried. but could not find out
who put it there. But I knew that it
was not put there for any good pur..
pose: and when J found that some OF
the jury had drunk it, took the
record from them, and told them that l
would not allow them to consider the
case any longer, and, If they had agreed
on a verdict, would not have received
it or attended it to be recorded.
A verdict which is not above the
suspicion Of improper influences shall
never disgrace the records OF any
court over which I preside, if it is pos
sible for me to prevent it. Gentlemen,
we must see to it that the fountains OF
Justice are kept pure and undefiled,
and free from even the suspicion OF
contamination.
There is one other matter to which
l wish to call your attention. You
should see to it that the prisoners and
INDECENT poor of your county are human
ly treated. They are not expected to
have the luxuries of life furnished
them, but they should have what is
necessary to healthful and comfortable
existence. It sometimes happens that
those who have authority over these
unfortunate members of society exercise
it in brutal and tyrranical manner.
Doubtless you have seen accounts IN
the newspapers recently Of a convict
guard being charged with whipping
one of his prisoners to death. Such
treatment Of prisoner by his guard IS
a disgrace to our christian civilization,
and must not be tolerated. It IS
your duty to Investigate and see that
the prisoners and unfortunate poor OF
your county are humanity treated.
The jury were then charged as to
the indictments handed out by the
Solicitor.

court and placed on the jury trial
calendar.
Counsel in the prdhate court OF Paw
tucket filed a claim for jury trial in

clerk OF the superior court.
Section 799 of the Court and Prac
tice Act requires a motion for a jury
trial in appeals to be filed with the
clerk of the superior court.
1t is claimed that as all the papers
filed in the probate court have been
certified to the superior court. the

really filed there. and consequently
there has been sufficient compliance
with the section referred to-
on the otherhand, IL Is maintained
that the section requires the filing OF
