Skulls as Drinking Cups.

The old Scandinavian sages repre-
sent as among the delights of the I'm.
mortals the felicity of feasting ana
drinking to drunkenness from the
skulls of the foes they had vanqHished
On earth. Vaudeville goes further, and
represents the Guebres as exposing
the dead bodies of their parents to tae
fowls of the air until nothing but the
.ke,etorG remained, and preserving
the skulls to be used as drinking cups.

THOMPSON SCORES JUDGE
LA BUY ON "WET" CASE
Mayor Thompson went to bat with
Municipal Judge La Buy today. Yes
terday La Buy barred a shorthand
reporter who had been sent to his
courtroom towatch the manner in
which the states attorneys Office
prosecuted a saIoOnkeepef arrested
on a charge of violating the Sunday
closing law.
Thompson denounced La Buys ac-
ton as most unusual" He init
mated La Buy was trying to keep Sc
cret the manner in which the case
was conducted. Corp. Counsel Ettel-
son and City Prosecutor Miller, who
were present in the mayors Office,
said La Buys action was ''uhjustifi-
able "
The case in question was that of
John KroleWeczEi; salO01keeper, 51st
and Hermitage. The case was called
in the stockyafds court, over which
La Buy presides. Eugene P. Quirke,
asst states atty, represented States
Atty HOyhe.
Before the case had progressed
very far Quirke noticed a stenUgra-
phgr busi1y engaged in taking down
the record of the trial QUiTke asked
that he be excluded from the court
La Buy questioned the reporter and
the latter admitted he had not been
hired by either the states att'y's Of
flee or the defendant, but had been
sent there by Harry Miller, who will
be remebered as Fred Lundin's can
didate for states atty. Quirke then
accused the mayor and chief Of pO-
lice of attempting to keep cases" on
the states atty. The judge then or
tlered the court reporter from the
court under penalty of a contempt
of court fine.
GtTitdgo 7 a P1Iv has established a
The day book. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1911-1917, 1916-12-19

in the peoples court will be kept Sc
eTet. N
Harry Miller then intimated that
the states att'y's Office had laid
down in the case of Vic J. ChiU1pa,
another saloOnkeeper accused of viO-
Iating the Sunday closing law, who
was discharged by Judge La Buy a
few moments before the KfOleWicEli
case was called. The latter case was
continued.
From other sources around the
City Hall came the report that
Thompson is making a record of
Hoyne's handling of all Sunday vio-
lation cases and that if a list that will
reflect on HOyne can be gotten to-
getheF it will be sprung in the Chi
cago Tribune, which has suddenly ;
appeared to have established itself as
the Th6mpsOn-Luhdih official news
paper.
Charley Wheeler, political agent of
the Tribune, has held several long
conferences in the past six weeks
With Thompson, one of them as late
as last evening. It is understood
that Wheeler carried peace terms be-
tween the Trib and Big Bill. Since
he began his visits the Trib and
Big Bill, Fred Lundip and Oscar De
Priest have been riding in the same,
bahdwagon.
The dope is that ThOmpson's out
burst against the whisky trust"
was laid out for him by the Tribune
and that he has agreed to boost the
Trib's "dry" campaign along. The .
Trib's switch seems to have brought
the Anti-SaIoon league politicians
around. They've quit banning the
mayor, and in the current issue Of
their official organ they hand him
some nice bouquets.

POETS AS PuNsTERs.
Even Shakespeare and Milton Broke
Into This Form Of Humor.

Even Shakespeare and Milton Broke
Into This Form Of Humor.
Shakespeare was an inveterate pun
ster, and DR.. johnson in his preface to
an edition to the poets works deplores
his habit Of punning on serious occa-
sions. Hamlet is made to pun when
he asks the gravedigger:
Whose graves this?"
milne. SIR" answers the clown.
Hamlet replies:
II think it be thine indeed, for thou
Hest int" and adds later, ''Thou dost
lie int to be int and say it is thine.'
To King Richards question, what
comfort, man? How is't with ancient
Gaunt?" Shakespeare makes Gaunt re-
ply: "Old Gaunt indeed and gaunt in
being old. Within me grief has kept a
tedious fast. And who abstains from
meat that Is not gaunt?'
Milton is the last poet one would
think to be guilty of punning. and yet
he once wrote punning epitaph upon
carrier who piled between Cambridge
and London and who died after losing
bis trade on account Of the plague.
This carrier was the Hobson whose
''choice" is so famous. He used to hire
out horses, but travellers had to take
the horse Hobson offered or none. SO
that "Hobson's choice" came to mean
no choice at all.
The whole poem, written on the death
Of this carrier, is full Of puns. One pas
sage runs:
death.
And too much breathing put him out of
breath:
Nor were 1t contradiction to affirm
Too long vacation hastened on his term.
Cowper made a pun which has be-
come quite famous. In the poem de-
scribing the ride Of John Gilpin, who
had to go where his horse took him
and eventually arrived at the house Of
friend from whom the horse had
been borrowed, Gilpin says:
I came because your horse would come.
And IL well forbode.
My hat and wig will soon be here.
They are upon the road.
Tom Hoods humorous poetry is full
Of puns. In "The Lady's Dream" he
writes:
They talked together like two egotists
In conversation all made up of eyes.
And in "The Mermaid Of Margate' he
says:
On Margate beach. where the sick one
rOam0
And the sentimental reads,
Where tho maiden 6irts and the widow
comes
Like the ocean-to cast her weeds.
But examples could be multiplied in
definitely. Hoods best known pun
reads:
His death. which happened In his berth.
At forty odd befell.
They went and told the sexton and
The sexton tolled the bell.
