THE IRON JUDGE OF MALTA.

One night, 200 years ago, Judge
Cambo of Malta sat by his bedroom
window gazing out upon the sleeping
town, which was bathed in brilliant
moonlight. Had Judge Cambo not been
Sitting by his window that night, his
name would never have been known
outside the island of Malta, which is
about eight miles wide and seventeen
long; but he couldn't sleep well that
night, for one reason or another, so he
took his seat by the window, and
eventually became known all over the
world, or wherever lawyers congre-
gate. Thus we see upon what small
peg destiny sometimes hangs.
There is no doubt that Judge Cambo
was a man OF integrity and ability.
Some even hold that he had a con-
science. In his youth he was consid-
cred sentimental and went so far, upon
occasion, as to write poetry. But he
took up the study of the law quite
early, and the law became an infatua-
tion with him. AS the years went on
he became saturated with it, so that it
took full possession of his soul and
mind. He judged everything in the
earth and the waters under the earth
by his Maltese law. which was some
what different from that now prevail
ing, as the island then was under the
dominion of the Knights of st. John.
In the mind of Judge Cambo. though he
perhaps wouldn't have confessed it,
justice was a small thing as compared
with the law. If justice and the law
could be made to walk comfortably
along the same road, well and good;
Tensas gazette. [volume] (St. Joseph, La.) 1886-current, 1916-08-25

! otherwise, the law had the right of
self.
So Judge Cambo sat at his window,
in the soft Mediterranean night, and as
he looked into the street beneath him
he saw one man stab another. The
wounded man. who had been flying for
his life. reeled and fell At this mo-
ment the murderer's cap fell off, and
his face was fully exposed to the
judge. Thes judge and the assassin
stared at each other for a moment,
and then the latter replaced his cap,
threw away the sheath of his knife
and ran. The learned jurist sat at his
window. gazing calmly at the dead
man. An ordinary man might have
raised an alarm, but the judge did
nothing. 1t is possible that he was rak-
ing through his mind for a law that
would fit the case.
The night wore on and morning was
approaching, and the judge remained
at his window. Then a baker came
into the street, carrying his loaves for
distribution. Presently the baker be-
held the corpse, and stood looking at

sheath of the knife. picked it up and
examined it and put il in his pocket
Then panic overlook him and he ran,
but just at that moment policemen
came around the corner and seized
him. The unfortunate baker was led
away 10 prison and the judge, calm
and serene, lay down for a few lines
of slumber.
In due season the baker was brought
up for trial in the criminal court. and
the presiding judge at that court was

Tomb of Jehangir.
Jehangir's tomb is one of the chief
historic attractions of Lahore. The
mauSOleum is on the bank of the Raw
river, which IS now crossed by Il fine
bridge instead of the bridge of boats
of old. There are four towers ut the
corners of the tomb. The mosaics and
the marble lacquer work are the most
beautiful features of the mausoleum.
There is an inscription in the Urdu
vernacular. reciting that it is the buri-
nj place of "Jehangir, the conqueror of
the world"
Jehangir's conquests were many and
thorough. and fill great space in the
history of. the Mohammedan invasion
of India. But the world was larger
than Jehangir and his contemporaries
knew, and there was even more to In
dia itself than they realized. The
world of India, which he conquered
did not remain vanquished, and much
of it fell away from his successors
Nevertheless, the Mohammedan pre-
pOnderance continued and the dOmes
and minarets of the mosques still
dwarf the temples of the yains and
other Hindu socts.
Anarkali's tomb is also one of the
sights of Lahore. He was known as
'the Lion of Lahore" The dome build
ing in which is held the yellow marble
coffin that contains Anarkali's re-
mains is now occupied as a govern
ment office without detracting any
from the greatness Of "the Lion of
Lahore"
The English section of Lahore Is q
fine and spacious Anglo-Indian town,
with an abundance Of shade trees,
wooded arcades and palms. The real
Lahore, the actual city of discomfort,
is something very different. Many of
the streets are as narrow as alleys,
with the balconies and roofs elbOwing
one another. In these alleyways are
some unusually fine examples of clay
and wood carving, and Of lattice and
lacquer work. 1t is here that the ma.
tive life purls and seethes, and resents
interference. Yet there are some con.
cessiOns from the native customs. A

lish cards. Nor was 1t whist that they
were playing, either. Yet next to them
was seated q naked r, or priest,
discoursing to a group Of devout dis
ciples-a real picture of native life.
The Moslem preponderance, histori.
cally. in Lahore, and possibly numeri.
cally, raises question why it shoulG
be the city Of discomfort, since the
Mohammedans are mostly loyal and
are the mainstay of British rule in
India. But there is such a mixture of
native races and religions in Lahore
that no sect has any real preponder.
ance. Apparently. discomfort gravi.
tates there because of the medley.
