GENERAL NEWS NOTES

were on the ground and were in a
position to know the facts.
1t is Gardyne's opinion, gathered
from the statements of those he
knew in earlier days, that the Ken
mclians who came here after the
bones of Boone were deceived, and
rtIJru uury UuUK Jne Dones OF an un-
known person back to that State
and erected a monument above them,
believing they were what was left of
the great American pioneer.
1t will be recalled that w. NJ. Bry-
an states in history that when the
graves of the Boones were opened
the coffin of Rebecca Boone was
found in a good state of preserva-
tion, while the coffin of Boone was
found to be entirely decayed -
nothing but a few fragments of
bone remained and a small piece
of the coffin. This seems to bear
out the statement made by Gala
way and others regarding the lost
grave and the bones re7interred.
Mr.. Gardyne calls attention to the

Bribery in Elections.

Bribery, according to an expert on
the subject, first became recognized
mode of securing votes in the reign of
Charles l. 1t was afterward improved
upon by George Ill, who lost no op-
portunity of enforcing it's claims as
a good cote getter. If" he wrote
to his chief adviser on one occasion,
the duke of Northumberland requires
some gold pills for the election it
would be wrong not to satisfy him."
The king was not altogether selfish In
this matter of spending money, for
the gold pills came out of his own
medicine chest, the civil list, where
as his successors drew upon the secret
service cash for the corruption of the
voters.
In those days the British constitu-
ton worked on the principles of Mr..
Quinton Dick, wealthy West In
dian planter, who explained his man
ner of election thus: "At the last
election l spoke to my constituents.
Gentlemen l said, my opponent is
a very rich man with large family.
l am very rich man, and thank
God that all care for in the world
is covered by my hat 1 put my
hat on my head, and they returned

Smuggling Partridge Eggs.

A singular custom of smuggling by
means of dummy baby was brought
to light by the city customs officials
at northern station in Vienna.
Partridge eggs have for long time
been extensively stolen from pre-
served estates in Hungary, struggled
into Vienna and sold to poultry deal
ers, who Matched the eggs in incu-
bators, brought up the birds by hand
and sold them below the prices asked
by more honest dealers.
A special lookout for smugglers has
resulted in the arrest of two peasant
women. Arriving in Vienna in the ma
tional Slavonian costume, each of
them carried baby tied, according to
the invariable custom, to cushion
and SO closely packed" that only the
face was visible.
The women were noticed to be a lit.
tie agitated as they passed the GUS
toms, and they were followed home.
1t was then discovered that while one
baby was living child the other was
dummy. 1t consisted of wax head
partly hidden by shawl and cap,
while the cushion was filled with more
than 600 partridge eggs.

THE CHICKEN AND the CAR
Not to Speak of the Pony the Poodle,
the Collie and Others Who Were
in the Mixup.

A sort of house-that-Jack-built motor
case is reported in the Green Bag. 1t
says that as a motor car was passing
quietly through village in New Eng
land a chicken pursued by cat sud-
denly crossed the road Just in front
of the automobile.
The sudden dash of the chicken and
cat startled a pony, driven by two lit
tie girls, one of whom had poodle in
her lap. The poodle jumped out to
give chase to the cat and fell on the
road right in front of the car, causing
its driver to pull up suddenly.
Just as this happened collie travel
ing with it's mistress in the car leaped
out and chased the poodle, which
frightened the pony so that it bolted
toward the car. Seeing this, the
chauffeur drove toward the gutter, but
as the dogs were fighting there had to
take another course, colliding finally
with a stone wall and totally wrecking
the machine.
The owner of the car brought an ac-
ton for damages against the owner of
the chicken, claiming that it was re-
sponsible for the damage. In giving
judgment the court argued that there
was no doubt as to the chicken having
been the proXimate cause of the acct
dent, for had it not crossed the road
the cat would not have scared the
pony; had the pony not been scared
the poodle would not have got out
of the pony trap; had the poodle not
done so the automobile would not
have stopped and the collie and the
poodle would not have been in the
gutter; had the collie and poodle not
been in the gutter the cat would not
have hung round to see things
through; had the cat not remained on
the scene the chicken would not have
been trying to scale the wall, and had
the chicken not been trying to do this
the chauffeur would have kept his
nerve and saved the machine from &C.
cident.
Yet though the chicken caused the
accident the chickens act was not in
itself violent or dangerous. This
chicken would doubtless have made
a tender broiler; it was gentle and in
offensive, and not being ferae naturae
its destruction of the automobile was
unconscious and free from malice.
Therefore the chicken not having ex-
ceeded it's common law rights the &C.
ton could not be maintained and judg-
ment was accordingly entered for the
defendant

Curiosity soueIched.

At dinner the professor of history
was seated between two young ladies',
who, in accordance with their training
in the art of conversation, sought to
draw him out upon the subject in
which he was most interested. They
did not meet with much success; his
answers were short-"Yes," "Oliver
Cromwell" NO" 1892" and the like.
Finally one of them in desperation
ventured:
Professor, we were wondering
only this afternoon, and none of us
could remember: How many children
did Mary, Queen of Scots, have?"
This was too much. Madam" said
