evidence with me when | come 70
court" she added.
Hicks insisted that his wife was the
aggressor, but Mrs. Hicks had wit
nesses who testified to the contrary.
Patrolman Fineberg basked In the
sunshine of Justice Jeffries' favor
when he appeared as complaining
witness against Sam Balonna. The
officer explained that he was called to
quell fight In front of the Lafayette
theater, Saturday night. but that he
didn't make any arrests just then, as
he didn't see the fight. Belonna. he
further explained, found fault with
him for failing to arrest the fighters
and got abusive. with the result that
Belonna was locked up.
We'll, I'll give you credit for not
making an arrest when you didn't
see the fight" said the court to Of

prisoner IS or 10 days"
Henry Middleton was the name

Emil Maggie, young man, was
charged with disturbing the peace. A
street car conductor said Nagle pulled
the bell cord a number of times and
almost broke it. Maggie told the
court that the conductor wouldn't
stop the car, and that when he pulled
the bell cord himself, the conductor
struck him. The conductor admitted
the assault, whereupon the court
chided him, telling him that he ap
peared to think more Of the ID. u. r. 6
property than he did Of mans
anatomy. Nagle was discharged.

Explosion.

CENTERVILLE, Mich. July g.
The major portion of one side of the

plosion OF fireworks, started In the

IL not known whether the fire In the

Bradley e. Trays, meat market;
Henry Hampton. grocery; Adelia
Welty, bakery; the post office and
one vacant building.
After an hour Of fighting the volun-
teer department Of Centerville called
on Three Rivers for assistance, but
the combined efforts Of the depart
ment from that town and the local
fire fighters was unavailing because
of a shortage in the water supply
which gave out soon after the Three
Rivers department reached here.
The stock in the hardware store
was entirely destroyed. Some of the
stock in the other stores was saved
and many had narrow escapes from
being injured by falling timbers
while carrying goods from the burn
ing buildings.

Ruse OF a Youthful French Advocate
Which Resulted In AcquittaI Of
His Client.

The Paris bar Is laughing at the
ruse OF a youthful advocate who had
10 defend a man whose reputation
was not OF the best.
After much thought the counsel con-
cluded that II he could produce doc
umentary evidence OF his claimants
honesty all would be well. and to OBJ
tain an acquittal would mean much
as far as his practise was concerned.
Like most suspects. the client was
painless. so TO produce the necessary
evidence It was needful to provide the
means.
The advocate gave his client Ave
franc piece-about a dollar-and sug-
gested that he should take It to the
police and say he found IL In the
street. and thus obtain receipt.
The client acquesced. went to the
police office. and returned with re-
ceipt
The advocate gave cursory glance
at the document and tied II up with
his brief. little thinking OF the So.
quel
On the day OF the trial the young
advocate relied entirely on the police
receipt. and thus terminated his APP
peal to the jury:
81 have document which shows
that during the past week my client
found five-franc piece In the street.
and without delay he took It to the po-
lice. Is that the act OF theft"
Then he triumphantly handed the
document to the president OF the
court The Judge examined It closely
and asked:
WAS It Ave francs that he found! p
Yes. Mr. President" was the reply.
Il am quite sure as to that"
But" said the president. "the re-
ceipt is for one franc only.
The court was convulsed. and the
jury appreciating either the inge-
nuity OF the counsel or the sharpness
OF his client. acquitted the honest"
knave.

into mel That's third. Then the
pung has been smashed. and the Law
has got to assess the dainages. Then
I've got to have pay for being skeered'
half TO death. All them lawsuits, and
then this young Teller is to be settled
with. Young woman. I wouldn't want
to be in your shoesi"
Miss Hyde began to cry II was the
first time In her life she had been
threatened with ten or fifteen lawsuits.
Her father was prosperous merchant
in the city, but so many verdicts must
drive him into bankruptcy. The young
man called old Adam for his threats
and said he would see him later about
damages.
Miss Bessie was driven up the hill
and turned over TO the care of her
aunt She was still nervous. but she
could see that bruise. and she insisted
that Il be attended to at once. II was
attended to- The young man intro
duced himself as Mr.. Howard Kyle.
and II was long hour before he con-
tinued his drive. OF course he returned
next day. That was only good form.
He was visiting a brother only two
miles away and it was no great trouble
10 come over.
The brulse was still there, but bet
ter. Miss Bessie's wrist was also still
there. and also much better. What she
was worrying about was those law
suits. Would the damage altogether
amount to a hundred thousand dollarsf
Would she have TO go out as servant
girl for the rest Of her life to help
make up the sum? Mr.. Kyle had been
very kind, but did that mean he would
not seek to collect damages? It was
only after the adventure had been
talked over at length that she heaved
a sigh of relief He informed het that
he had settled all damages with old
Adam for ready cash. The sigh OF re-
lief still fingered In the air when q
horrible thought came to the sigher
and she cried out:
But I've got to pay you. and maybe
papa hasn't money enough! Please
tell me how much It is. and ! will
write him at once"
But he didn't tell her-not then. He
waited a whole year, and then, one
evening as they we're sitting together,
he suddenly said:
II paid old Adam FIVE dollars to set
tie damages. It's been year now.
and | want settlement with YOU"
She reached out her hand. and he.
took II and seemed to think he had
got the best of the bargain.

Police Receipt Was Shy

There are always more workmep
than the work requires. and the cry
OF overcrowding is as old as man and
IL now heard every year In trade In
every civilized land we find some doc
tors in poverty. some lawyers. and
some clergymen. II Ia a condition
which cannot be remedied and the
proposition to reduce the number OF
medical students is palpably absurd
almost amounts to the suggestion that
the sick be compelled to submit to
the ministrations of the least efficient.
"The number of students is being
reduced in England on account OF the
increasing cost and labor of obtaining
license. but II will not guarantee. all
the graduates success. Indeed over
crowding is socially desirable, as 1t
increases the struggle for efficiency.
In the struggle for existence. success
goes to the efficient, not necessarily
to those we consider the best.
The diminishing incomes OF physi-
clans have already been mentioned In
these columns. and the causes deter
mined. but that has nothing to do with
the utter failure of some--a matter
due solely to the inevitable overcrowd-
ing"
