UNDERSTOOD ALL THE REST
On Only One Comparatively Unimpor-
tant Point Was the Juror
at Fault.

It quite often happens that in ad-
dressing a jury. the lawyers will de
liver their appeals to the one member
who seems to them the most intelli-
gent. They consider that by so doing
they can impress him and his infiu-
ence upon the other members will be
valuable
In a recent case, all the testimony
had been taken, the lawyers had
summed up and the judge had charged
the jury, when the juror who ap-
peared the most intelligent, and to
whom both counsel had made their
impassioned appeal, arose, and stated
that he wished the court to give him
some information.
81 have been bothered great deal, ="
he said, about two words the law
yers have been using all the time"
What are they?" asked the court
expecting to be called upon to eX-
plain the meaning of some words
like "res inter alios acta.'
"Why. the words that | don't know
the meaning Of, said the juror, ARE

LETTER SOAKED IN COCAINE
Denver Prism Officials Find the Bane.
fui Drug in Missive to
Inmate.

The core of an apple, the peel of a
banana and the stone of a peach have
been used as a means of smuggling CO.
caine into the county Jail, but at
taches believe that an entirely new
plan has been evolved, says a Denver
dispatch.
A letter was received yesterday ad-
dressed to one of the inmates of the
dope" ward. No signs of cocaine
could be detected in the corners of the
envelope. but the Jail officials decided
to examine the letter more closely.
A minute scrutiny of the paper on
which the letter was written revealed
that it was saturated with the drug.
There was enough in the sheet to sup
ply one of the victims a week at least.
The letter might have escaped detec-
tion if it had not been for the fact that
the sender had overdone his work A
white powdery substance which cov-
cred the entire letter first aroused sus-
picion.
According to the Jail attaches the
paper had been boiled in water in
which there was cocaine. After the
water had boiled away the cocaine
was observed by the paper, which was
then rolled and dried. The sender of
the letter has not been found. He
signed no name

Bridal Array Costly,

Brides all over the world like to
make the best display possible on
their wedding day, and the bridal at
tire of the various countries is inva-
riably both costly and beautiful. For
sheer gorgeousness, however, it would
be hard to rival the wedding finery of
the bellies of the island of Sumatra.
The dress is woven entirely Of gold
thread and its weight is so great that
the wearer can hardly move; even
standing up requires a distinct effort.
Apart from this shimmering, golden
garment, the bride is loaded down
with gold ornaments, rings, bangles,
earrings, pendants, girdles and neck
laces and sundry ornamental purses
of the same metal. The huge orna-
ments hanging on chains around her
neck are hollow, but all the smaller
charms are of solid native gold, most
massively wrought One might almost
think that the natives, having heard
something about a good wife being
worth her weight in gold" had set
out to prove the fact by loading their
quaint little brides with the actual
equivalent of their weight in the pre-
cious metal.

MURDERERS BURKE AND HARE
Men of Notorious Memory Should Still
Be in the Recollection of
Londoners.

The skeleton of the last of the body
snatchers treasured in Kings College
hospital recalls that there must be
Londoners still living who remember
Hare, who, with his accomplice,
Burke, first substituted murder for
resurrecting corpses in order to sup
ply subjects for the dissecting rooms.
Burke (whose method of smothering
the victims gave his name as a new
verb to the language) was hanged on
the testimony of his accomplice, for
Hare turned queens evidence and was
released.
Forty years or so ago Hare was a
well-known figure in London streets,
for Serjeant Ballantine in his Life" ="
describes him as one of the most per-
sistent blind beggars on the streets
about 1870. Few people recognized
the cold-blooded murderer in the
middle-aged, stout man, clad in a
white smock and led about by a dog.
His blindness he owed to the fact that
on leaving prison Hare found work
in some lime kilns The laborers dis
covered his history and threw him into
a pit of lime 1t was a terrible ven
geance, for it destroyed his eyesight.
And as it is not fifty years since he
was striking figure in London streets
some people should recall him.-Lon.

CAT AN EXPERT "FISHERMAN''
Has Learned Meaning of Line in
Water, and Has the Patience of
the Perfect Angler.

Cats are known to be fond of fish,
but it is not every cat that is willing
to so out and catch enough fresh fish
to furnish his own meal and supply
the family breakfast table with the
same food, Such an animal exists in
Miami, Fla, however, and daily
watches a hand line which his owner
places in the water. When the cork
bObbles the cat dashes to the Office of
an amusement company and sets up
q loud mewing. Following the cats
footsteps to the place where the line
has been dropped whoever is on duty
at the Office hauls in the fish to the
tuneful purring of the proud and sat
isfied cat. Some months ago the cat
chanced to be on the dock when a fisl
was pulled in. He learned that his
favorite food came from the water and
was caught on the end of a line.
Since that any line with one end in
the water and one on the dock has
been a source of unfailing interest to
the cat. The cats patience would put
the renowned Izaak Walton to shame,
for he will spend hours sitting by a
line without stirring. Sometimes the
cat will sit by the side of fisherman
and will tell his human companion by
his mewing when a fish is beginning
to nibbe at the bait before the fisher
man has suspected that the bait is
being dallied with.

Eeos When Not Used as Food.


For burns and scalds nothing is
more soothing than the white of an
egg, which may be poured over tho
wound. 1t is softer as a yarnish than
collodion, and, being always at hand,
can be easily applied. 1t is also more
cooling than the sweet oil and cotton
which were formerly supposed to be
the surest application to allay the
smarting pain. The egg is considered
to be one OF the best remedies for
dysentery. Beaten up slightly, with
or without sugar, and swallowed at
gulp, it tends, by its emollient quail
ties, to lessen the Inflammation Of the
stomach and intestines, and by form
ing transient coating on these or
gans, to enable nature to resume her
healthful sway over a diseased body.
Two, or at most three eggs per day
would be all that is required in ordi-
nary cases; and since egg is not mere.
~ medicine but food as well, the
lighter the diet otherwise and the
quieter the patient is kept the more
certain and rapid is the recovery.

Kino's Graoevine.

The great vine at Hampton court
palace is a slip off one at Valentines,
near Wanstead. which was planted in
1853. Owing to its roots having pene-
trated the bed of the river, which is
only 60 feet from the end Of the
vinehouse, the Hampton court vine
grew with extraordinary rapidity. In
10000 years after it was planted
its main branch was ia feet long
Now its branches cover q space Of
2.3O0 square feet, but the principal
branch only stretches 80 feet-the
length of the vinehouse. Had the
house been enlarged the vine would
probably cover four times as much
space. AS it is. the vines at Cumber-
land lodge, Manresa house, Roehamp-
ton and Sillwood park, Sunninghill,
surpass it; while the one at Kinnel
house Breadalbane-the largest in
Great Britain covers nearly twice as

China has led the world in the mat
ter of canal making, and to this day
stands first among the nations for the
skillful utilization of her inland water
ways. One great canal maintains
communication between Peking and
Canton, a distance OF 1900 miles, and
the total extent of the canals Of China
is more than 5000 miles. Russia owns
the longest canal in the world, ex-
tending from st. Petersburg to the
Chinese frontier. a distance Of 4,472

herself up to so out in the evening.
A certain man was going to call for

somewhat spoiled by the fact that they

care of her complexion. hair and eyes.
For the man was trembling on the

VALUE OF PROPER SPELLING
Attribute Highly Valued in CONNER
clal Life, and Is a Sense to
Be Developed.

Good spelling and intelligent pune
tuation are the accomplishments that
keep many gray-haired women draw
ing good salaries as stenographers in
downtown offices. The manager of a
typewriting office from which are sent
hundreds of stenographers makes no
secret of the fact that good spoilers
are scarce.
1--WE had a customer come in the
other day." said the manager, who
had evidently had run of hard luck
in the spelling line. He wanted a
woman who could SPELL No matter
if she's cross-eyed and has a hunch
on her back, he said, if she can spell
and write an intelligent letter. While
this was rather extreme case it
shows that employers are beginning
to grow impatient over the careless
spelling of today"
Another Office sending out many ste
nographers has a series of test letters
prepared especially with spelling
catches for the unwary. Common
words, famous as pitfalls for careless
spoilers, are strewn throughout these
specimen letters. Fully half the ap-
plicants put an extra in separate;
in many cases the before the last
syllable in noticeable is missing, while
the correct placing of the Is in the
word parallel reduces many of the
applicants to a state of discourage
ment.
Good spelling is pretty sure sign
of mental alertness," said a business
man with several offices and many
stenographers. Il find that if one of
our stenographers is naturally a good
speller she is interested in the cor.
rect spelling and use of new words
that come to her attention in reading
or in dictation. Now as a matter OF
fact it is no small job to keep up with
the spelling of the hundreds of new
words.
Our Oldest stenographer and our
best speller keeps on her desk lit
tie book not more than an inch thick,
but it has more first aids to poor spell
ers than anything I've ever seen. She

FOR THE BIG CITY VISITOR
Advice Given Those Who Only Infre-
quentIy Have to Leave the
Home Town.

Metropolitan blemishes and draw
backs are not often emphasized by the
class of business men who are per-
haps the most interested in bringing
strangers TO town-the hotel keepers.
However, a New York boniface has
had the frank and friendly inspiration
to prepare a card of "don'ts" for pre-
sentation to each Of his guests.
An early suggestion has to do with
watches and money. Don't wear your
timepiece loose on a fob, and don't
believe that hip pocket is as secure
as bank. Why carry a roll, anyway.
when the hotel Office has a safe?
Next, the affable stranger Don't
let him persuade you that he IS an
old friend
Next, life and limb. Don't believe
that you are as swift as an automo-
bile. And don't tote a gun-'it is bet
ter to run"
Next, traps. Don't go too conf
IDENTIFY into unknown places; the way
out is not always so straight and
simple as the way in.
Yet, on the other hand, don't go to
the harassing extreme of cautiousness
and suspicion. The city is not bad
just because it is big, nor is every one
you meet necessarily a con man.
Big cities, speaking bromidically,
are alike. Though no local hotel man
has yet issued a bulletin of warning,
what will serve the denizen of Scho-
harie and Undertook in New York
will also advantage the visitor from

The discovery is said to have been
made that milk kept in red bottles
will remain sweet and pure longer
than when kept in plain glass or 9TH

been made with the spectrum to de.
termiue which Of the rays Of light af-
feet milk. and it has been found that
it is the rays toward the violet and
of the spectrum that do the mischief.
The red ray is stronger and more

neutralizing effect upon the lacteal

theory that the red bottle preserves
the milk better than the bottle now
