Bunker Reeoanized the Sand.

It is the boast of the hardy fisher
men and coasters of Cape Cod that
they can tell where they are without
any instrument but the lead, and with
no other observation than a scrutiny
of the sand brought from the bottom
upon it.
A few years ago one Capt. Bunker
was on cruise, and. being confined
to his cabin by sickness. he directed
that the lead should be brought down
to his berth for his inspection. The
craft belonged to Nantucket, and was
in sand ballast. The mate of the yes
SCI, somewhat of wag, and doubtful
of the captains infallibility, creased
the lead, and, dipping 1t into the bal
last, carried it down to the berth.
Old Capt. Bunker's eyes di!ated with
establishment as he asked: DO you
say you got this sand by sounding?"
YES, sir"

WITNESS AN EXPERT ON LYING
He WaSAllowed to Testify in Court
and Won the Case,


and Won the Case.
A Kansas City lawyer tells OF the
use Of expert testimony on lying. He
says:
Il was prosecuting attorney for Fin
rey county In 1881, and had fellow
up before Squire N. c. Jones on the
charge of horse stealing. He hired
Nike Sutton to defend him, and when
the case was called 1 proved beyond
question by witness who witnessed
the theft that we had the right man.
After the prosecution had rested SUIT
ton introduced Buffalo Jones as wit
ness, and gravely informed the court
that he intended to prove by him that
my witness had lied. Buffalo took
the stand and swore that, while he
had never seen or heard the witness
before and knew nothing at all about
the crime committed, he had had a
great deal Of experience with men and
could tell pretty certain when they
were lying. Then he proceeded to tell
how men acted when they were lying,
and gave the expert opinion that my
witness had sworn to lies from tina
word CO. I protested against such
performances, but Sutton made the
judge believe he had as much right to
introduce an expert on liars as he
would have to introduce an expert on
medicine or any other science, and the
result was the thief was dismissed
