morning to flush from the system the

No Wonder She Chuckled.

In a name there was embarrass-
ment for one woman. Her name was
Mrs. Fish. In the lobby of a Broad
way hotel she met Mrs. Roach, and
while she was conversing with her
along came Mrs. Crabb. Why, this
is pleasure, Mrs Fish, breezily said
Mrs. Crabb. Mrs. Fish saw the en-
barrassment of the situation and hest
tated before introducing Mrs. Crabb
to Mrs Roach. And when she did Mrs.
Crabb, who was youthful matron,
saw the humor Of the situation and
gave vent to a loud chuckle. Mrs
Roach was a dignified woman who had
crossed the Rubicon of life. She froze

at the same time giving Mrs. Crabb
the icy stare. Il must be going, any

as Mrs Roach departed Mrs. Fish
and Mrs. Crabb, who were both young
enough to be in the swim, laughed up
roariously.

Cossack Customs.

The word Cossack itself is a de.
rivative from the Turkish prototype
of "adventurer," which is a typical
word for the description of these
rowing horse-rders. The Cossack pop.
ulation amounts TO roughly 100000
men and women, and they collectively
own some LAG, 100000 acres of Russian
territory. Their living is chiefly OBJ
tanned by the pursuit of agriculture
together with cattle and horse breed.

The young Cossack spends the three
years of his life between eighteen and
twenty-one in military training; the
next twelve years in active service;
and, finally, the following five years
are spent in the national reserve.

OLD COURT PROCEDURE
SOMEWHAT DIFFERENT FROM
THAT OF THE MODERN DAY.
Elaborate Ceremonial and Dignified
Proceedings Were Frequently Dis
pensed With in the Early Days
OF the Country.

"Oyez! Oyez! Oyer! Know we
all that the honorable circuit court
of Peoria county now stands convened
pursuant to adjournment"
This is the impressive ceremony
used and the words spoken aloud when
In federal courts all spectators and at
taches are required to arise and re-
| main standing until the court has been
seated.
In the days of 1918 to 1880 things
were different, as early historical rec
ords show observes the Peoria Trib-
une Records of those days show one
incident in which Judge John Rey-
nolds was seated on the circuit bench
in Washington county when the fol
lowing procedure was followed:
Boys. come in. Our John is going
TO hold court" the sheriff said to the
spectators. jurors and attorneys who
had gathered on the grass in the court
house yard.
The courts in those days were held
mostly in log houses or in barrooms
Of village taverns fitted up for the pur-
pose, with temporary bench for the
court and benches and chairs arranged
for the jurors, lawyers and spectators.
In general, The judges were adverse
to rendering decisions on points of law
and preferred to submit all questions
n hn i'm fnr lot
One instance is cited when attorneys
requested the court to instruct the ju-
rors on questions of law. The judge
after rubbing his head and face with
his hands and rejecting few mo-
ments, said to the lawyers:
Why, gentlemen, the jury under
stands it; they need no instructions;
no doubt they will do justice in this
case"
The same justice presided in case
of man named Green who was con-
victed of murder. 1t became the UNI
pleasant duty of the Judge to pass sen.
tence upon the man. He called the
prisoner before him and said:
Mr.. Green, the jury says you are
guilty of murder and the law says you
are to be hung. | want you and all of
your friends down on Indian creek to
know that it is not who condemn you.
1t is the jury and the law. Mr.. Green.
what time would you like to be hung
The law allows you time for prepared
ness"
Il am ready at any time, your honor.
Those who kill the body have no power
to kill the soul. My preparation is
made and / am ready" was the reply
of the prisoner at the bar.
'Mr. Green, it is very serious mat
ter to be hung; 1t cant happen to a
man but once in his life. You had bet
ter take all the time allowed / will
give you until this day four weeks"
was the sentence of the court.
James Turney, attorney general,
who was prosecuting the case, remind
ed the court that it was the duty of the
judge to warn the prisoner of the con-
sequences he was facing, to reprove
him for his guilt, and to warn him
against the judgment in the world to
come. The court replied:
"Oh, Mr.. Turney. Mr.. Green under
stands the whole matter; he knows he
has got to be hung; you understand
it, don't you, Mr.. Green?"
