or deep his convictions, he must say
nothing. He must sit down and wait
and hope.
p Then some day a man, whom we
may call A, comes along and says
that B has stolen his purse.
When A makes his assertion, the
Judge, carefully refraining from COM
ment, must take several months to
decide whether the assertion is made
in the proper form and in language
sufficiently Blackstonian. Then b
comes along and admits he stole the
purse, but sets up the defense that
the purse was trash and therefore not
worth fighting about.
Then the lawyers are called in
again, and for several years they
look up the law and the prophets, the
precedents and the decisions, the con-
stitutions and statutes, the intent, the
provocation and the circumstances.
The whole Baconian theory is reex-
amined and made part of the record.
An attempt is made TO discover
whether A was rightfully possessed
of the purse in the first place. While
all this is going on the Judge must
maintain an unbroken silence.
Finally the thing is threshed out TO
point where an opinion is imminent.
Then the discovery is made that it
was not purse at all, but wallet;
that it was bought as wallet, sold as
wallet and distinctly designated as
such by the seller, a certain depart
ment store, marked Exhibit E.
As this makes everything defective
, and introduces the new question as to
whether the trash theory applies to
wallets as well as to purses, the whole
matter must be gone over again. In
the meantime the Judge is hiding in
his bosom a sapient opinion which is
eating his heart out.
At last the day seems to have ar
rived when the lawyers are unable to
drag the case any longer. The Judge
perks up. He is about to be a some
body.
But alas! disappointment is again
his lot His fetters are not loosed
for he is informed that the case has
been compromised by dividing the
contents of the purse among the law
yers.

Diving Helmet for Everybody.

A new diving helmet which anyone
can use is the cover design of the May
Popular Science Monthly.
This diving. helmet is OF metal. Its
lower edge fits snugly over the shoul-
ders. Four adjustable weights, two in
front and two in back, are fastened
In place by metal strips. These
weights overcome the buoyancy of the
air in the hood and the natural buoy
ancy Of the person wearing it. The
buoyancy OF the air in the hood tends
to hold It in an upright position. Since
the weights are suspended below the
center OF buoyancy of the body (which
is in the chest). the shoulders are held
firmly in the curved lower edge Of the
helmet.
Fresh air is supplied to the diver by
means of a single tube which leads to
a small hand pump in the boat. The
pressure of the pumped air not only
prevents the water from entering the
hood. but keeps a fresh supply passing
through at all times.

Quaint Raincoat.

When rain falls in tropical countries
there is no mistake about it. The rain
comes as If it meant to sweep away
all such trifes as trees and bushes.
A man who goes out in this deluge
must protect himself, but he finds that
Il macintosh of the lightest kind has
Its disadvantages. for II 1t keeps the
rain out, 1t also keeps the heat In.
. The raincoat devised by the Mexi-
cans is called "chino," and is so por-
GUS that the heat of the body readily
escapes, while owing to Its construc-
ton 1t keeps the wearer dry. The
chino is made of numberless long, mar
row strips of dried palm-leaf, one end
Of each strip being woven into a light
fabric and the rest falling loose. The
wearer of this garment rustles as he
walks. and the rain pattering upon II
makes n pleasant sound. Arrived at
the house, he takes OF his palIn-leaf
hat, shakes It, and hangs 1t up to dry.
Then he slips of his chino, shakes
that also, and hangs 1t up. He him
self is untouched 10y the rain, but the
chino, as 1t hangs up. looks like a
huge, damp, brown cassock. Surely
this ralncost is the quaintest in the
world.

Outside the Law

The Clayton Antitrust Act exempts
labor unions from the provisions of
the Sherman law against combinations
in restraint Of trade.
In view Of recent evidence of the
power and disposition of the railway
brotherhoods, the exemption is much
as though our New York Sullivan law
against having guns exempted Ital-
ians.
One notable thing about the ten
commandments is that they don't ex-
cuse even workingmen and farmers.
But then the ten commandments are a
good deal out Of date, and probably

GAINED FAME AS PUGlLlST
John 5roushton, English Fighter, Only
Man Credited With Having Won
Two Priced Distinctions.

John Broughton, alone among Eng
llsh professional pugilists, can claim
the double distinction of an Abbey fu-
neral and having had dedicated to him
a poem by the poet laureate. 1t was
In 1744 that Paul Whitehead published
his "Gymnasla." or Boxing Match"
which he inscribed, ITO the most puis-
SAINT and invincible Mr.. John Brough-
ton" AS early as 1880 Broughton had
achieved athletic distinction as the
winner of Doggett's Coat and Badge.
The science of boxing owes much to
Broughton. "He promulgated code
for the guidance Of the combatants and
the satisfaction of the judges" writes
Mr.. Guy Nickalls. His new rules were
agreed upon by pugilists and approved
of by the gentlemen on August Is, 1743,
and lasted in perfect integrity until
1888, n period of nearly 100 years. He
introduced science and humanity into
what was up till then barbarous
sport, by not only inventing defensive
guards, but also preventing a man
being hit when he was down. He also
introduced gloves or mufIiers for con-
ducting mock combats or sparring
matches" Broughton's patron was
the duke of Cumberland, who made him
a yeoman of the guard.

Willard treated big Bob williams with
downright carelessness when he pepper

the round with williams face smeared
