New York Sun. They found 4 COM

covered his check with a substantial
bill. The other man seemed receptive.
and he continued:
Have you a lower berth for to-
night?" The man across the table
nodded. well. I'm travelling with
my mother. who Ia rather well along
In life. and I'm anxious to make her
comfortable. Would you be kind
enough to give her your BERTH"
II should be delighted" responded
the stranger.
They went back to the sleeper.
where the accommodating man was
presented to the others mother. a
white haired old lady with charm
ing face. The good Samaritan had ex-
changed his lower for the upper be-
longing to the old lady. and he was
radiatinR with a sense OF charitable
kindness. 1t led him to remark AZ
fably to the other man:
But where are you going to sleep?''
"Oh. that's all right" was the an
swer: that's my lower berth ovse

a third of that distance from San
Francisco, there is situated. in the up

a small island, worthless even for SO

This rocky peak, rising from the
quiet waters OF the gulf, is known as
Tiburon Island. Tiburon is Spanish
word which translated into English,
means shark" The waters around
the islet are literally swarming with
these tigers of the sea, and the inhab-
itants of the island are said to be no
less ferocious than the sharks. Thur

A Witty Reply.

Whenever the United States supreme
court on hearing the argument OF coun-
sci for plaintiff In error Is entirely
satisfied that he has no case the chief
justice is apt TO say to counsel for de-
fendant IN error that the court does
not care to hear further argument.
At one time Hon. Matthew Carpenter.

plaintiff in error and opened the case.
Before he was through the court was
satisfied that there was nothing In 1t,
and SO when he had concluded and

ONE REASON FOR BAD .coPs."


The astonishing thing about the
New York police problem. when you
look deeply into it, is that no head of
the department has ever made it pos
man on the force to become a good
policeman. Each has plunged into the
welter Of police affairs to catch few
things here and few things there,
but has left the general trend, the
real current. of police business as he
found 1t. He found the New York
"cop" having certain attitude to-
ward his work. and he left him as he
found him. In two sentences the pa
trolman's position is this: That his
duty Is not clear. and therefore it is
safer and better to do nothing sensi-
BILE. especially when no amount of
faithful public service will advance
him a single grade on the force-will
simply count for nothing. That he
can rise ii he is foxy enough. or
crooked enough. to lay his wires and
pull them at the right time. This is
not only the patrolman's position,
but that OF every officer below the
grade Of inspector. You can not
shake him in this belief, and with good
reason, for he has seen the policy win
time out OF mind.-From The Police
Question" by Carl Hovey. in the Met
