PURITY OF JUDICIAL ERMlNE
Termed az Rabbit Skin by Redoubt'
able Advocate Who Was Defending
Prisoner at Bodmln Asslzes.

At Bodmtn assizes once, barrister,
while pleading, was interrupted by the
Judge:
"Mr. Carter, you are wasting the
time of the court"
thine Of the COURT" retorted the
truculent veteran, glaring fercely at
the bench. "Your lordship means
your lordship's dinner!"
The Judge threw up his hands In
despair, and Carter continued his
harangue in peace.
The same redoubtable advocate was
on another occasion defending a man
charged with obtaining money under
false pretenses.
False pretenses," said he, with
fine scorn. why, we all make them
every day, barristers and solicitors
and judges-the whole lot of US. Talk
about the purity of the judicial err
minei" Here he pointed derisively to
the learned Judge, who sat covering
on the bench. why, it's only rabbit
skim"
Shouts of laughter greeted this ir-
reverent statement, which tnvestiga-
ton would probably show to be literal
ly true.

The young woman reused herself. She

was taken before his uncle, the Rus
sian general. The general looked his
nephew over, but said nothing.
At once Git was but six In the morn

court-martial. There were five-he

Captain Fyedotoff. Lieutenant Tau and
Sergeant Major Yevseyenko. The &C.

who had bayoneted his former lieu.
tenant, and two others who identi-
fed him. The facts were plain, indis-
putable. Jan Radymno was questioned.
He admitted everything a thick
voice, for the thrust had lacerated
his tongue-but without flinching.
Two of the five in the court-martial
were In favor of having the prisoner
taken to headquarters, some ten miles
off; two others, including Captain Eye
dotoff, wanted sentence pronounced
and executed at once. The decision
rested with the general. He said that
inasmuch as responsibility regarding
operations in the woods had been con-
fided to him he was in favor of imme-
date sentence. The two captains nod
ded their heads. Jan Radymno had
been a gallant officer, good comrade,
but this was plain case.
General Pronounces Sentence.
So the general in a cold, inflexible
voice pronounced sentence. Then he
said, as an afterthought: Have you
some wish to express?" Jan Radymno
took one step forward, leaned hard on
the table and said: Il have little
boy, Piotr, six years old. I ask, I
command, l implore, that he be
brought up as a Pole-to remember, to
love his people and his native land,
and to be informed how his father end

lasting curse on you, uncle, If it be
not carried out"
Then they took him away behind
the house. His uncle leaned against
the wall and shaded his eyes, but he
said nothing. This had been his IA
vorite nephew. He sank into chair
and hid his face In both hands. He
waited. Outside six men were digging
grave in the sandy soil. Jan sat
motionless near by, his head on his
breast, gazing at faded photograph
of his little boy. At last he lifted his
head. He stood up, removed his torn

The sergeant of the firing squad came

him away.

the shot that meant his nephew's

HIS FIRST PAIR OF GLASSES
Man Thought He Was "Seeine
Things" and UnjustIy Blamed
His New Aids to Vision.

It happened in Boston. He haG
gone there to get fitted to some eye
glasses. 1t was the first time he
used them and when the oculist hand.
ed them to him he remarked that he
guessed he would put them on and
wear them.
Better not" remarked the oculist
wait until you are home and can
get little accustomed to wear
ing them"
But the man put them on just the
same, paid the bill, left the office and
started down the street. Everything
went fine. He could see everything in
sight with clearness and distinction.
He turned into Winter street and
threaded his way through the throng.
Suddenly something seemed to go
wrong. Standing out from the rest of
the crowd appeared an enormous man.
He lowered high above everyone else
on the street. The man again focused
his gaze, thinking it was trick OF
fancy. But there doomed the big man,
feet above him. With a startled ex-
clamation he jumped to the conclusion
that his glasses were the trouble. He
snatched them from his nose and with
his naked eyes looked again.
There he saw the giant man still ap-
proaching-on high stills and bearing
placards of invitation from his en-
ployer. 1t was no fantasy of the
glasses, after all. But he did not put
them on again until after he reached
home.

ITALY UNDER MANY RULERS
Fertile Land, During the Centuries,
Has Been Prize Worth the Ex-
penditure of Blood.

Charlemagne tackled Italy to his un-
wieldy empire and left it to his weak
ling son, Lothaire, by the treaty of
Verdun In S43. The peninsula en-
joyed a measure of peace for some
years, then petty counts and dukes
began a series of internecine wars
which continued until Ohio the Great
marched into Rome in 962 and forced
the pope to place the imperial crown
Of gold on his head. That was the
beginning Of the Germanic holy Ro-
man empire. 1t established prece-
dent for the German emperors, and
they continued bringing their armies
across the Alps to feast on ltaly's
plenty until Conradin, the last of the
Hohenstaufens, was defeated In 1868.
The Hapsburgs then took up the pur-
suit Of Italy.
The feudal system never gained q
firm hold in Italy, which lightened
the labor of Germanic commerce. In
1866 the pope and the free CONNER
cfal cities made a common defense
against the emperor. They had more
or less success until Frederick Bar
barossa swept down on the land and
buried all opposition. The Lombardy
league collapsed In 1167, and Italy
became as much a German province
as Aisace IS today. Ne German en-
peror in those days rested content un-
til the pope had placed the imperial
crown on his head-frst the silver
crown at AK la Chapelle, then the
iron crown of Lombardy, and then
the one at Rome.
