A Defeated Conscience.

The secretary Of the Kansas State
Historical society tells story about
an early day Kansas justice of the
peace who will be nameless here:
This J. p" said the secretary,
would marry a couple one day as
justice of the peace and divorce them
the next as notary public"
One time, as the story ran, a man
surrendered himself to this j. P.
"An' phwat's the matterf" asked the
judge.
IL killed a man out here on the prai-
rie in a fight" was the reply. Il want
to give myself up"
"You did kill him, sor?" asked the
J. P.
eyes, SIR" was the reply.
"Who saw your asked the ]. P.
Nobody"
can nobody saw you Kill fmp
mo. sir. Just we two were there"
AN you're shure nobody saw your
reiterated the j. p.
"Of course Pm sure" was the reply.
Thin you're discharged said the
J.P.. bringing his fist down on the
table. You're discharged. You can't
'crimlnate yourself Fifty dollars.

Trappino a Tiqer.

The tiger is possessed at times Of an
almost supernatural cunning, won
derful sense of smell and fine in
stinct with regard to traps and the
like. which make him as difficult al
animal to take alive as any existing
Sometimes he can be shared. but not
often. On one occasion the writers
native Indian servant ran in in n
great state of excitement to say q
tiger was trapped In the jungle half
a mile away. and the entire camp, OF
course, at once focked over to see the
prisoner. The trap was exactly on
the principle Of humble mouse trap
with a falling door. and built of strong
timbers laced together with rattans
The imprisoned tiger was a full grown
mate. and II would be difficult Ia
imagine anything wilder than his rage
as he roared and stormcd and hurled
himself in futile fury on each part OF
the structure in turn. There he was
to stay until hunger had rendered him
manageable, the incident showing that
the tiger can be trapped, although moi
often.-London Globe

An Idol WITH Diamond Eyes.

1t is a curious fact and one scarcely
known outside OF Russia. and there
hardly ever mentioned. that the fa-
nous Orloff diamond was once the
right eye of the great idol Serringham
In the temple of Brahma. This pre-
cious gem was stolen at about the be
ginning Of the eighteenth century by a
French soldier who had mTde a pre-
tense of being converted to the Hindoo
religion in order to gain the confidence
of the priests and admission to the
temple. The Frenchman first sold the
diamond for $4,000 On the next turn
It was bought by a banker Of Con
stantinople for $4,000. The banker
kept 1t until IVA and then sold 1t to
the Russian empress for 100000 and
q life pension. The gem has been In
the Russion royal family ever since.
AS It is now set In the imperial scepter
of Russia 1t presents a hattened, rose
cut surface and weighs exactly 1914
caratS.

FRIDAY EVENING, JUNE a.
Ais Treasurer Knew.

He who goes into politics must re-
member what he is recorded to have
said. for It is the habit Of the sharp
nosed public to search out past utter
ances and hold the candidate RESPONSE
BILE for them. John Burns, says Mr.
Grubb in his life of that labor leader,
once made the slip Of remarking that
no man was worth more than 600 a
year. Accordingly. when he became a
cabinet member with a salary OF E.
600. he was obviously open to attack.
When he first met his constituents
at Battersea after be was made presi-
dent Of the local government board a
candid friend recalled the statement
about a mans worth by calling out In
the middle Of his speech:
"Wot abaht that ere salary or e.
OOO?"
Mr.. Burns was equal to the occa-
sion.
THAT is the recognized trade union
rate for the job" was his apt reply.
"1f took less would be black
leg"
"Wot yer goln' ter do with the 1850
overY" pursued the inquisitive ques-
toner.
"For details" answered Mr.. Burns,
"apply to my treasurer, Mrs. Burns"

Trouhle For Hubby.

At a recent tea party where the rare
provided could not by any means be
termed palatable guessing game was
instituted, aud the lady who won 1t
was asked to say what she would have
as prize. She greatly hattered her
young hostess by requesting a slice of
the cake with which some of them
had desperately struggled at tea time.
"Why did you ask for that stuff a
disappointed and still hungry youth
asked her. You know very well 1t
isn't fit to eat"
Il have definite purpose in view,
answered the young lady, carefully
placing the piece Of cake where there
would be no possibility of her forget
ting it. 81 mean to make my husband
eat tiff necessary, to force it down his
throat crumb by crumb-and thus con-
vince him that somewhere in the wide,
wide world there is an even worse
cook than be imagines his inexperi-
enced young wife to be."-Pearson's

Ancient Iceland.

Iceland was founded A. D. S74 by
men from Norway. In the words OF
John Tiske. ut was such a wholesale
colonization of picked men as had moi
been seen since ancient Greek times
and was not to be seen again until
Winthrop sailed into Massachusetts
bay. 1t was not long before the pop
ulation Of Iceland was 10000. Iheir
sheep and cattle fourished. hay crops
were heavy. a lively trade-with hsh'
oil, butter and skins in exchange TOT
meal and mat-was kept up with NOT
way. Denmark and the British isles
Political freedom was unlmpalred' JUS
tice was fairly well administered. ma
val superiority kept all foes at a dis
tance. and under such conditions the
growth Of the new community In
wealth and culture was surprisingly
rapid"
