The Hanging Judge.

When Lord Norbury, ''the hanging judge" as he was called in Ireland, was sentencing man to death for stealing watch, he said:
 My good fellow, you made a grasp at time and caught eternity"
 Nothing seemed to please Lord Nor bury more than the continual uproar in court, created by his puns.
 ''What is your occupation, my honest man?' he asked witness.
 Please, your lordship, keep a racket court"
 "So do l." said the judge.
 When Lord Norbury was being buried, the grave was so deep that the ropes by which the undertaken was let, ting down the coffin didn't reach to the bottom. The coffin was left hanging midway while somebody went for new ropes.
 Aye" cried one in the crowd, "give him rope enough; don't stint him. He was the boy that never grudged rope to poor body"

Rock Candy.

"Originally what is now known as rock candy" explained a confectioner to reporter, twas called. in the trade Gibraltar rock. Originally, also, 1t was the purest kind of candy, for 1t was crystallized sugar pure and simple. Ordinarily 1t is purer now than many other candles. Hawthorne, in "rhe House of the Seven Gables describ. ing a small store, says, For instance, there was glass pickle jar filled with fragments of Gibraltar rock-not, in deed, splinters of the veritable fortress, but bits of delectable candy Other writers of even earlier date than that speak of Gibraltar rock. It appears, however, that the Gibraltar was finally dropped. and 1t became known as rock candy. l have price list issued in 1S4S to the candy trade in which Gi braltar rock Is the name given, though after that 1t Is quoted as rock candy Throughout England it is known as Gibraltar almost exclusively outside of the large cities.

A Dismal Failure.

A young jobbing firm in New York overbought for the fall trade Their heaviest mistake had been in a line of overcoats, which, it looked, they would have to carry over a season. Efforts to get cash for the stock were fruitless except at ruinous rates. At last the firm went to an old timer in the trade for advice.
 "Well," said the man of experience, you've got pretty good list of GUS toners. Just divide the coats up into lots of thirteen each. Send batch apiece to some of your sharpest GUS toners, but make out the bills for twelve. They'll be so tickled to get one coat for nothing that they'll take lem all"
 The scheme had been tried before the men met again. The old timer waited for his praise.
 'Well, didn't they keep the coatsy he asked.
 Yes returned the jobber sadly. "One each-the one that wasn't billed. New York Times.

SUGAR CROPS
FOR NEXT YEAR
MOST PROMISING

According to statements credited
to Il. Il. Paxton of the Sugar
Factors Company the crop of sugar
10 be harvested for 1908 will exceed
any crop of previous years, all, OF
course, with the understanding that
nothing turns up to kill the best Of
prospects that exist at present. This
exceptional yield will be due to a
larger area planted to cane aud the
improved conditions of irrigation.
Mr. Paxton says that Olaa, Nc
Bryde, Waialua and Oahu will all
make big increases in their outputs.
Regarding the most important
item of the whole season, the price,
the present outlook and quotations
have nothing to cause alarm, and II
is even predicted that better prices
will prevail next year than this, or
will certainly hold their own with
the present. Transportation facili-
| ties are much improved over previous
years and are still improving. All
told, the sugar plantations should eX,
Iperience good times next year.

"Finnigan the Millionaire" was

New York City. 1t has already been
five years on the road and is now in
its sixth season. Unlike the good old

They are in constant rehearsals every

how Larry aquired his wealth and

the national Irish humor and wit,
which is gift in the Irish race,
coupled with American ideas of the
