The opern was Aida" Caruso was
to sing Rhadames, and he was In the

two Wallets. Wonderful indeed were
they. Celebrity and deftness raised to

a Jewish farmer In Alberta, who pre-
pared an address Of welcome to the
Duke OF COnnaught. The address was
inscribed In Hebrew on a grain OF
wheat and contaiued no fewer than

that a microscope was necessary to

ONE BED FOR THE COURT.

Il Was a Big One, Though. ard .i.',.
All lts Numerous Members.
The frst courthouse of Henry
county, ILL.,, was frame structure.
eight feet by fourteen. set In the
midst Of an uninhabited prairie. But
as little villages began to spring up in
the county lively contention for the
honor Of being the county seat began.
Cambridge finally won. for 1t was
nearest the center Of the county.
This was In the forties Of the last
century The FIRST session OF circuit
court was at hand and Cambridge was
on its mettle to entertain the court
suitably. The difficulties to anything
but pioneer courage and resourceful-
ness would have seemed insuperable.
The village consisted OF eight or ten
little dwellings, a tiny general store, a
blacksmith shop and a carpenter shop.
The new courthouse was unfinished,
but would be used. as the session for
tunately fell in the summer.
Now the housewives laid their heads
together to contrlve how the court
officials, itigauts and Witnesses
should be lodged and fed. There was
almost nothing that could be bought,
except sugar. mOlasses. tea. coffee and
-four. But they had an abundant sup
ply Of yellow legged chickens, home
cured huns. milk. eggs. butter and
cream. as well as their vegetable gar
dens to draw on. There was no fresh
fruit. but they brought out their cher
ished stores Of wild plum marmalade
and wild crabapple preserves. Both
were made with molasses, and after
they had sufficient time to season were
really delicious. Besides. the hillsldes
were pink with the beautiful wildwood
-sorrel, the leaves OF which make de-
licious pies In sklllful hands.
The village boasted one group OF
forest trees, a small grove OF sugar
naples, half a mile away. and in their
shade Mr.. Atwater built a long table
with sawhorses and boards. With the
combined stock of table linen, crockery
and cutlery possessed by the house
wives the table was laid with sufl-
Client elegance, according to pioneer
standards. It was felt that the court
would be properly feasted, but how
about lodging7 That was the real diff
1culty. The tiny houses aud their
beds were full to overfowlng with
their proper inmates.
But there was the loft OF the car
penter shop. The store had a whole
bolt Of unbleached muslin. It was
torn into lengths equal to the length
Of the loft and sewed together by
hand, OF course.
Then the loft floor was covered deep
with nice clean shavings, the immense
sheet laid over them and tackled to the
walls all the way round. On this
Brobdingnaglan bed the court lay In
two rows. From the extra supply re-
qulred for winter enough quilts were
mustered to cover the sleepers. AS for
pillows no one gave n thought to those
efTeminate luxuries The lawyers
might lay their heads on their saddle
bags or their rolled up cOats and be
thankful.
Thus was the circuit court sumptu-
ously fed and sufficiently lodged.

sh6rtss, charne to Jury.

II breyity is the soul OF wit, Judge
Taylor, K. O.. has not many rivals
among his judicial brethren. Summing
up a case which lasted several hours,
says the Liverpool Post, he said no
more than this; Gentlemen, you have
heard both sides 1t Is for you to say
which you believe" Even this does
not represent Judge Taylor's best effort
in the way Of saving his breath. A
few years ago he delivered himself Of
what is supposed to be the shortest
summing up on record. He turned to
the jury, raised his eyebrows lnquir-
ingly, and remarked: "Well, gentle
men2" The art OF brevity could no
further go.
