Pnetio Iustice.

A couple in a certain village, each
the parent of six children. had melted
out to them a kind of poetic justice
in which they failed to see the poetry.
The woman. a widow. pleading that
she had no home and was therefore
unable to care for her children Undue
ed the local authorities to admit them
to an orphan asylum. The lnsn II, Il
widower. pleading he had no house
keeper and therefore no one to care
for his children, induced the authori-
ties to admit his six also. Thereupon.
being freed from all membranes.
these two married.
All went well for a few months,
when the authorities. learning of the
situation, promptly dispatched the
twelve children back to their parents.
and, the woman no longer able to rep
resent herself as homeless or the man
as without housekeeper, they were
forced to receive them.

MILITARY C0WAROICE.
A Sample of It's Punishment During the
Thirty Years War.

Thirty Years War.
Punishment for cowardice in the
German army at the time of the Thir-
ty Years war was so severe as to be
ferocious. In the year 1912 the Swed-
ish General Torstensson stormed Leip-
zig. A force under the command of
the Grand Duke Leopold gave him bat
tie before the gates of the city, but
during the engagement the Madlo-
nische regiment became suddenly pan
ic stricken and fed.
Punishment Immediately followed
When the regiment had again assem-
bled six other regiments surrounded
it and tried it by court martial in the
open field. The verdict was that the
colonel and the captains should die by
the sword and that every tenth man
among the noncommissioned officers
and men should be hanged.
The stern verdict was carried out to
the letter, except that at the request
of Leopold the men were shot instead
of hanged. Colonel George MadlO-
nische was beheaded after he had
sought in vain for a pardon The sur
vivors We're consigned to quarters with
other commands. and the regiment new
er regained its name or former pres
tige In those days there was no alter
native but to be brave. Cowardice
meant either death or everlasting dis

Peter the Greats Ruthless Methods In
Erecting the Capital.
siOst dlsadvantageously situated of
al the capitals of Europe-indeed, Of
the world Petrograd is a monument
OF the pride and energy of Peter the
Great He wanted European CAPT
tai in order to signaliZe and immor-
talize his cOnquests. In 1903, when
the first foundations of the city were
laid on the rnarshy island on the delta
of the Neta. at the eastern end of the
gulf of Finland, the surrounding ter
ritory had even then not been entirely
conquered.
Peter went to work with his usual
energy and with his usual ruthless
ness to create a capital in what was
worse than a desert. He himself su.
perintended the building of the city
and gave the directions of the details
to half dozen lieutenants. The work
was pushed with almost incredible
rapiGity, so that by 1I12 sufficient adj
vance had been made to permit the
transfer of the imperial family from
Moscow.
One measure ordered by Peter was
that thousands of peasants must set
tie in or near the new capital. A spe-
cial tax was put en- his empire to
meet the expenses Of building the city.
Such a small difficulty as the scarcity
of masons was nothing to a man like
