THE JUDGE.
BY James Montague.


When beheld a Supreme Judge
Intent upon achieving
The Boston Dip, | murmured "Fudpel
This thing is past believing"
But still he calmly waved his feet
In various directions,
And frightened children on the street
With startling genuflexions.
"Your Honor" l made bold to say.
My grief and pain Disgusting
"To see you carry on this way
Is just a bit surprising.
A judge may condescend, no doubt,
To dance in place and season;
But on the street to hop about
Bespeaks enfeebled reason"
Continuing to leap and bound
With rhythmic undulation,
The justice gently looked around
As If for appreciation.
"My friend" he painted, "I dom
care
A rap for how you view It,
My dancing is my own affair,
But this is why I do it:
81 loved a soda fountain girl
With fervor most ecstatic;
Her hair was blond, her name was Pearl
Her age was problematic.
But when I talked to her of torts,
And processes and pleading,
And Of the majesty Of the courts,
She glared at me unheediug.
"Cut out the Greek stuff, Judge she
said,
Them rels and nolle presses
And nunc pro tune talks, on the dead,
Is all of them dead losses.
l sure would never take no chance
With res adjudicata;
II you win me, you gotta dance
Yes, sir you simply gotta.
"And so I learned the Gaby glide,
The Mexican Fandango,
The Boston Dip, the Concy Slide,
The one-step and the Tango"
But though you want the girl, " I said
"You paid an awful price, mani"
The justice sighed and shook his head,
"she wei" he said, 'an ice man. y
"rhen why continue thus to ptance
Like some weak witted rabbit"
Alas" he said, "G have to dance;
I've gone and got the habit
AZ these new steps you stare and game,
With stern disapprobatiou,
But learn them, and YOU can't escape
Their fatal fascination, "
And winging out his silkeu gown
While small boys iecred around him.
Aud juggling uimbly up and down
! | left him whore I found him
swiftly hurried down the street,
A prey to trepidation,
For could feel in both my feet
l A terrible temptation.

IMPORTANT DECISION
REGARDING LIQUOR LAW


UNITED PRESS LEASED wIREl
Ottumwa, Ia, Aug S.--Judge +. NJ
Hunter of the state district court, ru'r d
today that the Webb-Kenyon law pro.
hibiting the shipment of liquor from
wet to dry states is unconstitutional
Several express companies started the
action which resulted in this ruling.
and they were prevented from shipping
liquor into dry counties in Iowa from
Illinois and Missouri
The court held that the law is inval.
id because it delegates to states that
authority to regulate interstate com.

BUSINESS CONDITIONS
Review of Trade for the Past
Week by Bradstreet's
Agency.

New York. March "a. Following is
IA review of business foI the past week
by Bradstreet's agency:
Though wholesale trade reports are
inclined to manifest more or less ir
regularity, due principally to financial
factors, retail trade has expanded in a
rather noteworthy way, and jobbiug
lines, which are somewhat quiet in
the eastern and southern part of the
country maintain a satisfactory pace
in most other sections.
Consumption appears to be of large
proportions, and while n~umberless
strikes are being waged throughout
the country, industrial operations are
such as to afford widespread employ
ment.
Soil conditions as a whole are favor.
able, winter wheat prospects are good
and farmers are going forward with
preparations for the ensuing season.
At the moment the money situation
with its effect of credit seems the
main cause of complaint as regards
general business for the future.
Business failures for the week end
ing March 20 were 281, which com.
pares with 252 in the like week of
1912. There were 20 failures in Can
ada.
Wheat, including -four, exports from
the United States and Canada for the
week ending March 20, aggregate
1888, 101 bushels, against 1909, 074
last year.
