FILIPINO JUSTICE

An American officer who has seen
service IN the Philippines gives the
following illustration of Filipino judi
cial acumen, recorded by Tidbits:
AN American came home one day
just in time to see thief in the act of
climbing out of the window with a
better part of the Americans ward
robe. He gave chase so earnestly that
the thief was finally obliged to drop
the clothing so that he might run the
faster. He soon disappeared from
sight. The American gathered up his
belongings. Just then along came n
native policeman, who proceeded to
put the American under arrest, since
he seemed to be acting in suspicious
manner.
"To the local magistrate, before
whom he was hailed, the American tod
his story, very plainly and emphati-
caily. When he had concluded, the
Filipino Judge said: You are dis
missed, but you may leave your clothes
here
Why demanded the American.
"'For this reason answered the
magistrate, with the air of a sage,
that it is still uncertain whether you
speak the truth. When the thief re-
turns to identify these clothes as the
ores he stole, you may have Them"
