LAW OLD AND NEW.
A Cynical View of Past Methods and
Those of the Present.

A Cynical View of Past Methods and
Those of the Present.
Law. more especially criminal law,
has usually been an occult science. 1t
is still the practice in Burma, we be-
lieve, to give two disputants candles Of
the same size, to be lighted at the
same time. The one whose candle
burns longest gets judgment against
the other.
Less than 100 years ago a defendant
in an English criminal trial appealed
to the ordeal Of battle. and the court
was more or less surprised to find that
the ancient law on which be relied had
never been repealed.
Determining a mans guilt or inn"-
ceDce by his ability to walk ON bot
plowshares or carry a hot iron or
drink a poisonous decoction or by
throwing him bound into water has
been practiced for ages among many
peoples. The medieval method of let
ting accused and accuser fight it out
with weapons was common over Eu-
rope.
Our modest ancestors confessed their
inability to find the merits of the
cause and so relegated the whole af-
fair TO the intervention Of supernatural
agencies. The main difference is that
we are less modest. Instead Of the
ordeal of battle or the old key and BIZ
BILE test or the "sieve witch" we have
the defendant play game of trip the
court. If he can catch the judge put
ting down an 81" dot over an re" he
wins and is pronounced innocent,-Sat-

FATAL RlDlCULE.
Youths of Ancient Alexandria Paid For
Their Caustc Wit.

Their CauStic WIZ.
In ancient days the impudent wit Of
the young co-Egyptian dandy was
proverbial, says Arthur E. P. Bronze
Weigall in 1.-The Life and Times Of
Cleopatra" That was especially true
in Alexandria, whose people were char
acterized by the Emperor Hadrian as
light. wavering. seditious, vain and
spiteful, although as body wealthy
and prosperous"
No sooner did statesman assume
Office or king come to the throne than
the wags of the city gave him some
scurrilouS nj lme that stuck to him
throughout the remainder Of his life.
Thus Ptoemy IX. was called The
Bloated." Ptolemy x. The Vetch" and
Pto!emy XIII. The Piper" Seleucus
they named Picked Fish Peddler," -"
and in later times Vespasian was named
''Scullion"
When King Herod Agrippa passed
through the city on his way to his in
secure throne these young Alexan-
drians dressed up an unfortunate mad
man whom they had found in the
streets, put a paper crown upon his
head and reed in his hand and led
him through the town. hailing him as
king Of the Jews and that in spite Of
the fact that Agrippa was the close
friend of Caligula, their emperor.
Against Vespasian they told, with de-
light. the story Of how he had pestered
one of his friends for the payment Of a
triaing loan Of oboli. and some one
made up song in which that fact was
recorded
They ridiculed Caracalla for dressing
himself like Alexander the Great, al
though his stature was below the aver
age. but in that case they had not reck-
oned with their man. His frightful re-
venge upon them was the almost total
determination Of all the we'll to do
young men in the city, whom he col
lected together under false pretense
and then butchered in cold blood.
