He Believed the Boy.

The venerable and learned justice
John NJ Harlan, during a game OF
golf at Chevy Chase, explained the
intricacies Of evidence to young man.
Justice Harlan illustrated well the
case Of conflicting evidence - how,
when the statements Of two witnesses
are opposed, the more probable state
ment is to be accepted.
Usually, in conflicting evidence"
he said, zone statement is far more
probable than the other, so that we
can decide easily which to believe.
ut is like the boy and the house,
hunter.
"a house-hunter, getting off train
at suburban station, said to a boy:
"'My lad, I am looking for Mr.
Smithson's new block of semi-detached
cottages. How far are they from
here"
"'About a twenty-minute walk the
boy replied.
"'Twenty minutes exclaimed the
house hunter. Nonsense. The adver-
tisement says five.'
"'Well,' said the boy, you can be-
lieve me or you can believe the adver-
tisement, but I amt tryin' to make no
sale.'"

A Bucks Four Mile swim.

(From the Providence Bulletln.)
A handsome buck deer landed on
Stonington Point on Tuesday, having
swan half mile across Stonington
harbor from Wamphassett Point where
a herd of deer has lately been seen.
The buck first encountered the sea
wall that stretches along the water
front south of the old breallWater, but
managed to find a breach near the eX-
IRENE end of the point thru which ne
scrambled to a vacant lot near the
house of Mrs. Frank Joseph.
The deer caught sight Of the crowd
as he came ashore and to escape cap
foot picket fence separating the shore
from the narrow highway that leads to
the government reservation at the end
Of the point. This brought him to the
five foot wall in front Of the old light
house, which obstacle he also sur
mounted with graceful ease, bounding
to the shore on the east side of the
point, where he again took to the wa
ter in the direction of Sandy Hook.
Sandy Hook is the extreme tip Of
the state of Rhode Island, working up
northerly from Napatree and inclos1ng
Little Narragansett bay. Joseph Full
Ter Jumped into a slliff and started in
pursuit Of the buck, but the chase was
hopeless. After landing at Sandy
Point the animal plunged again into
the water and this time swan until
he reached Osbrook, CT PaWcatuck

Here he disappeared after an aggre-
gate swim of nearly or quite four

Automobiles on Rails.

Locomotives cannot always be had
for drawing special cars for the use OF
railway inspectors, and this condition
is causing a growing demand for small
inspection cars that are propelled just
as automobiles are-in fact, they are
railway autos, says the Pathfinder
They are coming into use in all coun-
tries where there are railways. In
the United States these inspection cars
are made so as to make speed Of
forty miles an hour, and enough gas
oline is taken along to run the auto
$50 miles. Even in India these ma
chimes are being used, and one man
ager Of a railroad has had machine
built that will run either on the rails
or the wagon roads.
