bird, and as bird, on which % cents
was charged, it was conveyed to the
Swiss frontier, where at stroke of the

transformed into cat at the Increased

On its arrival there 1t ceased as a

The Threatened revival of the con-
certina as serious musical instrument
in England would be a return to an
old fashion no doubt, but not to very
old one, since the concertina dates from
the early part Of the last century. It's
invention was an early indiscretion of
Sir Charles Wheatstone of telegraph
fame, who took out patent for it in
1929, the very year in which some
body in Vienna invented that similar
instrument, the accordion. The concer-
tina was popula,ized by Sig. Regondi,
who had come before the rublic as a
juvenile prodigy with the guitar. At
one time no London concert was real
~ complete without him and his con-
certina. and he astounded the Germans

HOW LINCOLN WON.
A Bad Looking Legal Case That Was
Saved by Eranknena.

| n BAD LOOKING Legal Case That Was
Saved by Frankness.
The lawyer whose honesty is proved
has the confidence of the Judge and
jury. A story of Abraham Lincoln Is
an illustration. He was appointed to
defend one charged with murder. The
crime was brutal one, the evidence
entirely circumstantial, the accused
stranger. Feeling was high and against
the friendless defendant On the trial
Lincoln drew from the witnesses full
statements of what they saw and
EneN. There was no effort to confuse,
no attempt to place before the jury
the facts other than they were. In the
argument, after calling attention to the
fact that there was no direct testimo-
ny, Lincoln reviewed the circum-
stances and, after conceding that this
and that seemed to point to defend
ants guilt, closed by saying that he
had reflected much on the case, and,
while it seemed probable that defend
ant was guilty, he was not sure and,
looking the jury straight in the face,
said, Are your The defendant was
acquitted, and afterward the real GRIM
inal was detected and punished. How
different would have been the conduct
Of many lawyers Some would have
striven TO lead the judge into technical
errors with view to an appeal to a
higher court. Others would have be-
corEe hoarse in denunciation Of wit
nesses, decrying the lack of positive
testimony and the marvellous virtue of
a reasonable doubt. The simple,
straightforward way Of Lincoln, back
ed by the confidence of the jury, won.

LITTLE WHEAT IN EUROPE.
Failure Of Crop Is General in All
Countries.

London, May 15.-The European
wheat situation, according to the gen.
orally accepted view here, resolves it.
self into questions of supply and de
mand.> 1t is explained that it is not
speculation alone which has brought
about the present high prices. The
situation has been strongly Influenced
by buying for the demand. Germany
has been purchasing Australian and
Argentine cargoes for nearly six
weeks. the shortness of stocks in that
country being caused to some extent
by selling considerable quantities OF
both rye and wheat to Russia, as last
years Russian crop suffered damage
Germany, therefore, must now get
about 100000 quarters more between
January IS and the end of July this
year than she did during the same
period last year.
1t is also acknowledged that con
siderable damage has been done tc
the winter crops in Germany, Rou
mania, Hungary and along the Dan
ube, extending to about 40 per cent
One Bulgaria report says that in
places it is about 30 per cent.
From all Europe, France excepted,

September opened at 95c to 99c.
Soon it sold at 81, and while the bulls
were throwing up their headgear the
price toppled to 99c. and CSC. A re.

was predicted; also that the next time
it would keep its balance.
July wheat opened at SO to CSC.
Next it sold at 96c. and SIC. Saturday
1t closed at 91Ac., while September
halted at $3.50.
The arrival at the dollar mark was
the climax of the bull stampede. A
