experiences. When the hearing was

to consider their verdict they found
that they stood eleven to M In favor
OF an acquitta, but the one happened
10 be a very compiacent old gentleman
who rested his chin upon the head of q
thick bamboo ane and announced de-
family that he was ready to stay there
as long as any of them.
The hours dragged on. evening ar
rived. and the old gentleman obstinate
ly held out. The other jurors YEARLY
arranged themselves to make a night of
it. From time to time the old gentle
man would contemplatively suck the
head OF the cane,
Finally he fell asleep, and the cane
dropped heavily to the floor. Then M
of the jurymen picked 1t up and found,
to his surprise, that 1t was nearly full
of Irish whisky. The eleven passed
the cam round, relieved It OF It's con-
