A Modern Solomon.
from Pearson Weekly.


Another good story is told of Menelik
by which it would appear he had studied
the judicial methods of King Solomon.
Two Abyssinans were gathering fruit.
one up a tree shaking the branches, and
the other below collecting the fruit as it
fell A branch snapped suddenly and the
man up the tree slipped and fell. He
landed on his companion on the ground.
breaking the unfortunate mans neck. but
himself escaping without fatal injuries.
The family of the dead man demanded
blood money. and when the accidental
murderer replied that he had no money
they demanded his life. This the man de-
clined to part with. and the case went
before the judges. finally working its way
up to the supreme tribunal of Menelik
himself.
The claimants by this time refused to
accept blood money even II offered. and
demanded their full right of life for a
life.
Very well said Menelik. in delivering 6
Judgment. you have undoubtedly the
right to claim this mans life; but the
law says that the murderer must be
killed in the same manner as his victim.
Therefore let one of the dead mans rela-
tives climb "A high tree and fall on the
accused until he kills him.
But none of the dead mans relatives
cared to take the risk, so the innocent
murderer was set free

From Pearson's Weekly.
Sir Francis BERTHE. our ambassador al
Paris. whose resignation is being dis
cussed was once the center of an anus
ing muddle at Windsor.
1t happened during the reign of Queen
Victoria. when Sir Francis was perma
nent under secretary of state for foreign
affairs Wanting to consult Lord Pom
sonby about a certain matter. he tele
graphed to him at Windsor: Shall be
down tonight.-Bertie."
The telegram was shown to the queen
and as BERTHE" was the name she al.
ways USED to her son. the late King Ed
ward, she came to the conclusion that he
was going to pay her an unexpected visit
When Sir Francis arrived he was con-
siderably taken aback at the elaborate
preparations that had been made to re-
ceive him, and the old queen laughed
heartily at the trick he had all-uncon-
sciously played on her But when he was
leaving she suggested that he should in
future sign his kilograms in some other

Stops Necessary Outlet.

There are other parts of Austria where
home conditions are SO unfavorable that
the people are forced to seek a livelihood
elsewhere In northern Moravia ano
Silesia. in the Bohemian forest and in the
Err mountains there are districts where
the utmost poverty prevails, and thou
sands of young men leave their homes
every year to escape what is practically
state of starvation.
The ministerial decree threatens to stop
this most necessary outlet for labor. and
thereby to entail enormous amount of
unnecessary suffering and hardship. Com
ing just at this time 1t is especially Sc
we're when the whole monarchy is groan-
ing under the heavy depression in trade
and industry consequent on the recent
war crisis.
The social democratic party is exceed
ingly indignant at what it terms the arbi-
trary and illegal action of the cabinet.
and accuses the government of acting in
the interests of the agrarians, who COM
plain that they are no longer able to get
sufficient labor for their farms. The
social democrats declare that such pro-
cedure is only possible in Austria, whose
true constitution is anarchy.

parishes as high as IL per cent of the
communicates have withdrawn
DIR. Lahusen, general superintendent
of the synod. declared that conditions
were most serious and distressing. the
church suffering from dissensions
within treferring to recent heresy
trials against clergymen of the modern
liberal schooD as well as from at
tacks from without. He declared that
in more than $4,000 instances last year
the church had to apply to the courts
and the police to collect the sums due
for the service of its affairs.

CPA1N is waging a colonial war OF
considerable Importance in northern
Morocco. where the final pact with
France allotted to her strip Of terri
tory opposite her own coasts. The war is
far from popular in Spain and the feeling
seems to be growing that the heavy sac
ritice in men and money is out of all pro-
portion to the value of the territory.
But national honor is involved, for
Spain has always had a foothold in the
Riff region. and before and after the
famous international conference of. Alge-
ciras her statesmen have worked hard
and successfully for a substantial share
in the partition of Morocco
Notwithstanding mass meeting pro-
testing the continuance Of the war the
campaign is being carried on with deter
mination, though with less glory than
the Spaniards had anticipated.
