Tho Tramn,s neuotian.

When Blaine was a young lawyer. and
cases were few, he was asked to defend a
poyerty-stricken tramp accused of steal
ing a watch. He pleaded with all the ar
dor at his command, drawing so pathetic
a picture with such convincing energy
that at the close of hts argument the court
was in tears. and ever the tramp wept.
The jury deliberated but a few minutes
and returned the verdict not guilty"
Then the tramp drew himself up, tears
streamed down his face and he looked at

Joseph Choate, the famous lawyer. re

Joseph Choate, the famous lawyer, re-
lated at q dinner party at LenoS some in
teresting "reminiscences of the bar and
bench.
"A striking case said Mr.. Choate,
'transp.red in the COS. 1t was a case of a
workman who claimed to have lost the
sight of his left eye in an explosion.
There was no doubt about the eXplo-
sion, and there was no doubt that the
workman's eye had been injured; but the
physicians claimed that he could see out
CT it, while he stoutly declared that the
sight was utterly destroyed.
The Judge heard all the evidence, pro
and con, then, sending the workman from
the court room, he said:
Get a blackboard, and write a sentence
on 1. with green chalk. Also get a pair of
epectacles. with ordinary clear glass for
the left eye, and with red glass for the
right
This, in the course of an hour or so,
was done. Then the workman was
brought back, and he was ordered to put
the queer glasses on.
He put them on, and the judge said to
him:
"'Turn the blackboard round, and see If
you can read what is written"
The MAI read the sentence without hes
%itation, whereupon the judge said to him
sternly:
"'Your case IS dismissed. You are an
imposter. You must have read that sem
tence with YOU left eye, for the red glass
over the right one turned the green writ
ing black, and made it quite invisible on

Devil Bird 81 CeyIon.
From the Chicago Daily News.

&h.S 0Ally INGWS.MNHa4l
Most people who have visited the is
land OF CeylolS n penetrated into its
Jungle Businesses have heard the cry
of the devil bird. This awe inspfrinr
sound resembles nothing so much 30
the scream OF a human being undergo
Ing the most terrible torture, Nafu-
5ralists have identified it with the brown:
wood owl found in Hinduism.
But the devil bird, or ula1na, as the
8Cingalese call 1t, is an elusive creature.
and no one has had the good fortune to
ssill or catch a specimen. The Cinga-
8lese-naturally a superstitious race
regard the cry of this bird with the ut
most horror; they believe that its
scream heard at night presages the;
most dire misfortune, and they are in
the habit of offering sacrifices to avert
the approaching disaster.
Mr.. Milford OF the Ceylon civil serv-
Ice studied the mysterious bird with
great interest. .Its ordinary note,p he
writes, sis a magnificent, clear shout
like hat of a human being, which can
be heard at a great distance, and has
q fine effect in the silence Of the clos
ing night. But the sounds which have
earned for it it's bad name and which
/ have heard but once to perfection, are
indescribable, the most appalling that
can be imagined and scarcely to be
heard without shuddering. / can only
compare it to a boy in torture, whose
screams are being stopped by being
strangled."

The American Settler Is welcome
to Canada.

The American Settler Is Welcomed
to Canada
A number of the leading newspapers
on this side of the line have been no
ticing the growth Of the Canadian
West in recent years, and draw atten-
ton to the fact that there seems to be
no abatement Of the influx of settlers
to that great grain-growing country.
The Buffalo Express thus refers to the
subject:
Canada West continues to grow.
There We're Alta homesteads entries
there in July Of this year, as against
1911 in July, 1905. Canada plumes
herself ove this fact with becoming
pride. But what appears to make our
neighbors happiest is the statement
that of these Alta h~omesteaders, 1912
were from this side of the line. Little
is said about the 81 Canadians who re-
crossed the border to take up homes
in Canada West, Of of the S0S from
Great Britain, or OF the 1896 from
non-British countries. 1t appears that
the item in this July report that makes
Canada rejoice most is this of the 1912
American farmers who decided to try
their fortunes in Canada West.
THE compliment is deserved. The

other farming States, and go into Can

Of immigrants for developing the new
country. They take capital with them,
too, say Canadian papers proudly. In
every way they are welcome over
there"
AS the Express we'll says, the Amer
lean is welcomed to Canada, and the
reasons given are sufficient to invite
the welcome. The American farmer
knows thoroughly the farming condi-
tons that prevail in the Canadian prai-
RE provinces, and is aware Of every
phase Of agricultural development in
recent years. In practical knowledge
Of what is wanted to get the largest
return for labor and investment he is

settler. He knows what is required to
