The Fate Of tho Fancy Set.

James, aged seven, had been pro-
NOTED, In recognition OF this great
event hfs father purchased for him the
following things that James insisted
were necessary:
A box of one dozen pencils, assorted
leads: one Ink and one pencil eraser,
one pencil box with marvellous roll
top, three copybooks for home wCrx,
two penholders and patent strap thai
was marvel Of ingenuity, but some
how or other didn't seem to hold tho
books very firmly.
The father examined the outfit few
days after and found that 1t con-
tained-
One much chewed lead pencil fur
nished by the city, scribbling pad
with few sheets on II, tin fountain
pen that Gid not work and never could
have worked and skate strap to hold
the things together.

Proved Hls Theory, but Died.

The acme of realism was reached,
though by accident, In criminal trial
a number Of years ago at Lebanon, o.
Two men had a personal encounter
One of them after vainly trying to
draw his pistol from his hip pocket
turned to flee. A moment later he fell,
shot In the small of the back. One
chamber of his pistol was found to
have been fired. His assailant was
tried for murder. The defense con-
tended that the man had shot himself
while trying to draw his pistol, which
had become entangled In the lining of
the pocket, and that the prisoners shot
had not taken effect. The prosecution
contended that such wound could
hot have been self inflicted. The defend
ants counsel, Clement l.. Yallandig-
ham, undertook to demonstrate to the
jury Just how the dead mans pistol
had hung In the pocket and just how
possible 1t was to inflict such wound.
Suddenly there was loud report, and
the lawyer sank to the floor. The ba,l
had entered the back almost In the
Identical spot where the dead man had
been, shot. The defendant was acquit.

The German workman who the other
day was fined In London police
court probably considered that he had
a genuine grievance when he complain
ed that, In addition to the fine, his
compulsory attendance at the court
had lost him days pay. For they
do these things better-at any rate,
from the delinquents' point of view
In the fatherland. For what may be
described as trivial offense the
worker is not compelled to attend the
court, and the amount of the fine is
collected from him at his house by a
policeman. In the event of more Sc
rious though still comparatively ven
ial breach of the law, punishable by
a short term of Imprisonment, justice
is satisfied II he works Off the time

A LONDON DINNER.


UNkp wi 8V oeut
"a German" thus writes the London
Mail: A dinner Is In progress at d first
class hotel. Elegant toilets, splendid
surroundings = and an absence Of
sound! Slowly, stlfiiy, like automa.
tons, the dining ladies and gentlemen
proceed with their meal. The scene is
undoubtedly very impressive, but, oh,
SO sad! Amid the sparkle Of jewels
and silver and crystal and porcelain
amid scene that fairly invites, begs
cries for bright smile, low rip
pling laugh or at least that deep, abi-
mated hum that makes itself other
wise noticed wherever there is large
gathering. the diners sit as In expecta-
tion Of the judgment day Sometimes
somebody does speak-one word or
two. The lips hardly part. The other
mods his head In terrible earnest. Then
silence reigns supreme again.
A friend who had been in England
once related story. the point Of which
I have never fully appreciated until
now. Like myself. the first time he
had entered dining room In London
he looked around in surprise. Finally
toward the end of the meal he called
the waiter. ''Tell me, please he
asked, docs anybody ever laugh
hereY'
WELL" replied the waiter, IT am
sorry to say that we have had some
complaints, but not often, sir - NOT

Judge Coleman had occasion to pro-
noupce life sentence upon notori-

marks the Judge spoke with so much
feeling and eloquence that many of
the listeners were deeply affected. The
prisoner. OF the other hand, seemed to
be quite Indifferent, looking at the cell

whatever to what was being said.

The Advent OF Gate Receipts In tho

The professional baseball player, as
such, was unknown before the civil
war. One finds, indeed, signs In the
newspapers Of the period that our
sporting men" drew no very sharp
line between the amateur and the oc-
casional professional. That perhaps
was only natural. Athletics were
new thing TO us. We had yet to learn
the dangers and the finer ethics of
sport. For example, the first conven-
ton Of amateur cfIbs, held In 1859
