iiABEAS CORPUS ONE LAP BEHIND
 IN COURT CASE

his surroundings he waxed exceed ingly wroth and of those in charge of him did he demand that Q mes sage be sent to one Alexander of the House of Young In a city hard by
 And. being wise In legal lore, Alex ander needed the call Of Emil and hastened to his rescue. Howbeit, Emil remained in the strong house until Monday morning.
 And when the sanhedrin did open for busiess Monday morning one Henry of tho House of Brle, the same being municipal magistrate, spake unto Emil saying, "Whatchu doing here?"
 And Alexander rose up and spake; Yea. thus and so did he speak:
 Behold, ] appear for Emil and. peradventure. demand for him a trial by jury. Postpone, l pray thee' the case until tomorrow morning by which time we will be ready"
 And Henry. the magistrate. re- piled: "As thou desireth 30 shall It be. only Emil must put up surety to my satisfaction, towit. one hun. dred bucks"
 And Alexander did most vigorous ly protest the decree of the court but 1t avanedeth him naught-
 And not having the amount of surety in his ralment, and having no friends that had, Emil wa sreturned to the lonesome house.
 Now, the lonesome house of Doug. las Is not a thing of beauty, neither is 1t a joy forever. Likewise 1t is not palace of sweets.
 And two hours after Emil had been reconsigned to the house of gloom and his legal advisor had re- turned across the water to his home in the city hard by. the former lifted up his voice and said to the guard of the prison:
 Hear me, pray thee This thing Is getting on my nerves and l feign would be released. Only take me once more before the high priest and will plead guilty and end this solitary business.
 And the guard hardened unto Elm. il's plea and he was taken back to court where he entered a plea of guilty
 And the heart of him who sat in the high place was touched and he spake thus unto the contrite Emil:
 While your offense is a grave one, have seen worse. Now, therefore if you will promise to never again look on the tripple-concentrated ex- tract of rye when 1t standeth aright in the glass. I will not soak you. but will permit you to so on sus- pended sentence"
 And Emil promised, yea. gladly did he promise to never again hit the old stuff.
 And he arose and got him hence, going straightway to the bosom Of his family where he was received with great rejoicing.
 And his little children climbed up- on his knees and he voted not that they did syrup-ticiously wipe their .molassesladen fingers on his hair.
 Howbeit. Alexander had not lain down to gentle slumber in the mean time. On the contrary he had been busy, having hied himself to the temple Of justice where sits the highest tribunal of the land
 And there he demanded writ of habeas corpus to take his client out of jail. And the writ was issued and 1t demanded that the marshal whose surname Is Shafer remove Elm Il of the house of Kronquist from the Douglas bastlle and take him before the higher court at ten by the clock on Tuesday. the sixth day of the sixth month of the year afore- said.
 And the writ was served by a cer- tain scribe and Emil who supposed the incident was a closed one and who was rejoicing exceedingly that 1t was closed. was once more mus tered into line and taken down to the sea and later transported by ship to the city hard by. across the wa ter.
 And one Michael of the House of o'Connor. the same being mayor and burgomaster of the City of Douglas, and, wlthal. Q live one, did accom- pany the marshal and his charge when they sailed the raging main to the city where sitteth the high court.
 At 2 o'clock yesterday afternoon, the writ of habeas corpus was ar.
