the character of the noise-makers by
the case of Isidor Salow, 1S years old,
who was arrested by the New York
police for having a revolver in his
possession. When Isidor, the patriot
lie, was hailed before police justice,
his examination was as follows:
What were you going to do with
it?' asked the magistrate of the pris-
oner.
Going to celebrate the Fourth,
was the prompt reply.
Why Is the Fourth celebrated?"
asked Magistrate Crane.
The prisoner stammered and finally
admitted that he didn't know.
What city is the capital of this
country"
Salow made various guesses, say
ing New York, Boston and Pittsburg.
Then followed many questions on
the history Of this country, which the
prisoner knew nothing about, and
then the magistrate wrote his name
and address on card.

said, but want you to write me q
