Then, too, what folly for plants to
grow whiskers on their seeds, like the

apparently a joke, or it may be a

The cocoanut's whiskers and the
chestnut's thorns do not deter any
animal that wants to eat either, and
who would want to eat the seed OF a
Unison weed unless bent on suicide?

ALMONDS MENTAL ALTERATION

Freaks of lunacy involving whole
species of plants are only too COM
mon. The Towering almond falls VIC
tim of mental alteration when 1T pro-
duces a tuft of leaves in the heart OF
it's blossom. 1t has plenty OF leaves
elsewhere, but, through idiocy, tempo
rary arrangement, or other cause,
grows leaves in it's blossoms, where
they are neither useful nor ornamental.
Some plants, like the camperdoWn elm
and the weeping willow, in sheer con-
trariness grow the wrong way turn
ing their branches down instead OF up,
while the blackberry has not the sense
to shed it's leaves. but holds them I'M
til broken or blown off.
Some plants acquire peculiarities
through high cultivation, like the roses
and chrysanthemums, which rarely
produce fertile seeds. Others. from
cultivation during many centuries, like
the banana, which has been grown
from sprouts and shoots so long that
1t has nearly forgotten that 1t ever
had seeds a rudiment here and there
in the pulp being their sole reminder.
Nearly all plants, particularly tropl-
cal and nut-producing plants, display
lack of judgment in working too hard.
OF course il is to he taken for granted
that Dame Nature knows what she IS

"A DOG PUZZLE.
Judge Mathewson Has a Knotty Cues
tinn to Solve.

| Judge Mathewson Has a Knotty CUES
ton to Solve.
When does a dog exercise due care?
When Is a dog lawfully on the trolley
tracks? Is a dog the property Of it's
owner? These three questions are but
small share of the humorous ones
brought up during the arguing of the
| case of Clark Dickerman of the city
court against the local trolley company,
in which he asks 5000 damages for the
death of his dog last February.
So unique is this case that 1t has
been printed briefly IN papers all over
the country, and has been brought up
in Harvard college before a class in the
Law school for discussion.
| Attorney Rosenbluth sued the trolley
company several weeks ago, alleging
that Dickerman's dog, Fusser, Bos-
ton bull, had beer. run down carelessly
| by a trolley car while the canine was
taking his morning airing on Whalley
avenue, Westville. Fusser was the viii
| lage pet. Attorneys Watrous and Day
of the trolley company demurred, say
ing in one section Of the demurrer: 1T
does not appear that the dog was ex-
ercising due care and it does not APP
pear that he was lawfully on the tracks
when he was killed by the car" Hence,
when is a dog exercising due care?
When is he lawfully on the trolley
tracks? Another statement set up in
the demurrer is that dog is not prop
| erty at common law.
| Monday the demurrer was argued be-
fore Judge Mathewson, and the discus
sion proved hugely entertaining. 1t
was claimed by counsel for Dickerman
that the dog was thing of value, and
therefore was the property of its, keep
er, and Rosenbluth quoted from a legal
text book: "a cat or dog which is
kept as a household pet may be proper
ly considered a thing Of value, and
therefore is property, 1t administers to
the pleasure Of its owner, and serves,
as was said by Coke of falcons, 'ob
vitate solatarium' (for comfort Of
llfe,)"
1t was brought out that dog Is Q
solace to life, and reference was made
to the heroic rescue of William of Or
ange by st. Bernard dogs in the days
of long ago. If perchance some poor,
bony old barker could have heard all
the qualities of his kind brought up
and praised during the arguing of the
demurrer, he would have shaken his
tail and howled with JOY.
After two hours of arguing Judge
Mathewson reserved decision, and is
still pondering Dickerman is deter
mined to fight the case, and likewise is
the trolley company, SO it Us probable
that it will go to the higher courts

Ex-ALDERMAN's BRIDE,
Miss Laura Kaerle's Wedding a Very
Pretty Social Incident.

Miss Laura Kaerle's Wedding a Very

After the ceremony large number of

the bride, where an informal reception
was held and bountiful supper was
served. The floral decorations were I'M
usually artistic
The bride, Miss Laura Kaerle, is an
unusually lovely girl, immensely popu-
lar, and was remarkably pretty in a
princess gown of chiffon taffeta, with
point lace yoke and garniture. She
wore an aigrette of whise roses in her
hair and carried bouquet of brides
roses.
The maid of honor, Miss Tillie Kaerle,
was most hecomingly attired in white
figured net over princess slip of rose
colored silk. The gown was trimmed
with a border in Grecian design and
had a transparent yoke with which was
worn an aigrette of pink rosebuds in
the hair, and she carried pink brides
maid roses.
The bridegroom is a well-known citi-
zen, an ex-alderman, very popular with
a large circle of friends and prominent
in German circles. The best man was
Charles Sattig, who did all the honors
admirably.
In the evening Mr.. and Mrs. Gerner,
after a very jolly send-off, left for a
trip to Virginia, The brides going
away gown was a very pretty queens
grey travelling suit, with hat to match.
On their return they will be at home to

rifeshot Of the world, was in the Unit
ed States court here yesterday as wit
ness in her $4,000 suit for libel brought
against the Evening Leader, The court
room was we'll filled with people to see
this picturesque little woman. She was
dressed in a demure costume of black
silk and looked little like wild west
shooter.
On the witness stand she spoke in
such a subdued voice that she had to
be repeatedly cautioned by the court to
speak louder. She could not restrain
Der tears. and several times she was
forced to take her handkerchief and
dry her eyes. Her testimony occupied
quite portion of the morning and in it
she told of her connections with differ
ent companies in this country and
abroad. and as she recounted the oc-
casions Of her triumphs before King
Edward and other notables, she forgot
her nervousness and talked excitedly
and interestingly.
The action which the rifle shot is
bringing is one of a number against
newspapers of the country, which about
two years ago published an article in
which it was set forth that Annie Oak
ley had been arrested in Chicago charg-
| ed with drunkenness 1t was a mistake

M'ENRoE TURNED DOWN THTRI
TIME.


At the meeting of the City Baseball
league held Tuesday night the resigna-
ton of the secretary and treasurer,
Henry F. Cosgrove, was accepted and
the date set for the election of his sue
cessor on May 5, Mr.. Cosgrove gives
as his reason for withdrawing from the
league his dissatisfaction over the dis
turbance that occurred during last sun
days game at O'Connell's lot
Vice President Condor reported that
the proceeds Of the benefit game last
Sunday amounted to $19820, and he was
authorized to send the money direct to
San Francisco or to turn the funds over
to Controller Rowe at his discretion.
Charlie McEnroe, shotstop Of the
Oaks. asked the league once more to
grant him a release from his contract
with that nine, but this was again re-
fused. Other mines want his services
and he prefers to play elsewhere bur
the league managers consider that as
his contract with the oaks antedates
other arrangements he made he should
abide by the decision made sometime
ago that he stay where he is. This
same vote has twice been previously
passed.
