been looking for certain thief, of
whom they possessed six photographs
taken in different positions, on the
occasions of previous convictions.
These photographs were sent to all
the towns in the country.
After some time the detective de-
partment received from the police
commissary of a small town the fol-
lowing letter:
"Sir-I have duly received the
photos of the accused persons you
are seeking. l have already arrested
five of them. and the sixth has been
traced by my officers, who hope in a

POPULAR SONGS.
In days of old, when nights were
cold.
And blizzards blew this way,
No bandit bold. the hard coal sold,
No trust magnate held sway, held
sway,
No trust magnate held sway.
CHORUS-CBy the congregation).
Alas and alack.
Here is the winter coming back
And the evenings are getting
mighty nippy,
To buy a ton of coal
Tries the home providers soul,
slightly dippy.
They used to eat all kinds of meat
In the days of old King Saul;
No trust complete, the people beat,
BY buster, bluff and gall, and
gall,
BY bluster, bluff and gall.
CHORUS.
In days of julius Ceasar
The ordinary geezer
Had a chance to eat some porter
house or mutton;
But it's very different recently,
The trusts can't treat us decently;
There's no chance now to e'er be
called a glutton.
Twas fun to bake their pies and
cake.

Dinner Stories
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS..

rTERE is a story which Baron
Douse, the celebrated Irish
judge, once told in that exag-
gerated Irish brogue which he loved
to employ:
IT was down in Cork last month
holding assizes. On the first day,
when the jury came in, the officer of
the court said: Gentlemen av the
jury. yen take your accustomed
places if ye Place
"And may l never laugh" said the
baron, ''if they didn't all walk into
the prisoner,s dock. -
Once the Choda, mending some
thing in the open pit in his garden,
slipped and fell in. Nearly drowned
in the deep water in the pit, he called
to the pupils to bring rope and
drag him out.
The dutiful schoolboys soon found
a rope and threw 1t down to their
master, and when he had seized 1t
began to drag him out. Only few
feet more and he would be clear out
of the pit, when, unfortunately, thor
oughly wet as he was, he sneezed,
In an instant all his pupils dropped
the rope to clap their hands, shout
ing:
"Hayir Allah, Chodjal"
The poor Chodja fell back down to
the bottom of the pit.
"Ah, it serves me right he cried.

.NoTHER DIZZY REVOLUTION.

Nicaragua, the comic opera repup-
lie. bounded on the north by revolu-
tionists, on the south by reconcen-
trados. on the east by mosquitoes
and on the west by fleeing ex-cabinet
ministers, is just now reveling in the
ecstatic delights of another war. The
greatest excitement prevails. Several
hens have been captured by the in
yading army and the president has
been unseated after a bloodless cam
nafgn of one day. Members of the
far-famed Gomez, Estrada, zelaya
and Tamale families are arrayed in
their best uniforms and some of them
honored the occasion by putting on
shoes and stockings.
This thing happens every once In
awhile in the Central American belts.
Presidents who go to work in the
morning meet themselves coming
back out of job, and If one gets
down late in the morning he is more
than likely to find a new dictator
with his feet on the desk. The war
was generally less harmful and dan
gerous than the average Fourth Of
July celebration in an American town
of 600. but the fiery revolutionists
have to do something for excitement,
and their only other amusement,
chicken fighting is bound to pail upon
them occasionally. There seems to
be little hope of ever securing sta
bility of government in that section.

tice OF appeal to the county court
was given.
Five others were each fined 81 and

various offenses having been commit
ted between Saturday night and
Sunday night. There was only "diffe-
rem mar in the crowd that e

fore him on a charge of disturbing
