FEE FOR THE LAWYER.
Jury Had Reason for Adding None,

During o term Of the superior court
IN an Eastern county the jury award.

to the winning party. One morning
when the jury rendered its verdict in
one Of these cases, Dennis A. Maher,
one of the best known jury lawyers in
The city, said 1t recalled verdict he
got In case several years ago. He
had sued man for claim of $1.25.
The Judge In the municipal court
decided against his client. and Den.
mis- appealed to the superior court.
When it was tried. the jury, the fore
man of which was a great friend of
Attorney Maher, reversed the decision
Of the lower court, and brought In a
rerdict for Sc.
The court called the foreman up to
aim and said: "Mr. Foreman. Is there
not some mistake; the plaintiff only
sued for $1.25, but you have given a
Yerdict for $6."

take," replied the foreman. 1--WE

Timber for Wine Casks.

"The growing scarcity Of timber
suitable for the manufacture Of slaves
is problem that confronts two conti
nents and in which all the wine drink
ing world, and therefore the civilized
world. is concerned" said |. B. Gold
man. stave grower and shipper OF
Hope, Ark.
Timber best suited for manufacture
into slaves comes from Arkansas and
small portions of Louisiana. Texas
Alabama and Tennessee. The timber
has been cut in larger amounts every
year to meet the growing demand
Prices have advanced, of course, but
the demand still advances. for no 9th.
er wood can take the place of that
produced in our section.
Most of the slaves are shipped to
Barcelona, Spain. where they are
used in the manufacture of wine
casks. Both Europeans and Ameri-
cans have tried to invent something
to take the place of the stave, but so
far without success. Glass and earth
en- casks have been tried. but wine
does not age the same in these recep.
tacles and 1t has quite a different
flavor"

DRY BEADING FOR A CHILD.
Decidedly erown-up Book Little vIr.
gInia Had Perused.


Virginia is FIVE years old, and has
learned to spell cat and dog. The
other day. on her return from. kinder
gartcn. she decided to call upon her
neighbor In the adjoining fiat. The
lady was busy writing and Virginia,
being well-trained child, did not in
terrupt. She played awhile with the
kittens and her hostess, being still
absorbed with her writing, she said:
Il think I'll read until you get
through.
Yes, dear, help yourself to q book"
said the woman.
Virginia selected one from the
shelves, and. spreading It open on
the table, assumed a very grown-up
attitude, and appeared engrossed in
her reading. At regular intervals she
turned the leaves for quite a long
time. Growing tired Of the silence she
softly donned her hood and coat, and
as she opened the door, called back:
"Bood-by. Mrs. -. I'll come again
when you have more time"
Later the woman wondered what
book Virginia had found so interest
ing. When she looked at the title
she smiled. II was the sixty-second

Indian Keeps His Pledge.

Indian devotion to a pledge Is not
myth; 1t survives to this day. At
the May term of the court at Vinita
Charles Boiling pleaded guilty before
Judge Parker at Sallisaw. He was
sentenced to GO days in the federal
jail and to pay fine of $25, says the
Kansas City Journal.
He asked to be permitted to stay
out of jail and make a crop in order
to provide for his family, and Judge
Parker granted the request. releasing
Boiling, who is a Cherokee, on prom.
ise to appear at Vinita on December
to begin his sentence. No bond of
any kind was required.
Boiling was waiting at the court
house one morning recently when the
doors were opened, and is now In Jail
serving his sentence. He says his
crop is gathered and his family is
provided for during the winter.
