ASSYRIANS NOT So ROUGH
Were More Humane Than Popularity
FabIed, Says Professor Who Has
Studied Their Laws.

The Assyrian is popularity recalled
as coming down "like a wolf on the
fold" But one provision of the AS
syrian code of laws indicates that the
Assyrians are more humane than they
are popularity tabled. This requires
that the destitute widow.be supported
by her sons "as the bride whom one
loves"
Instead of the Assyrians being Who'll
ly abject, their letters, says Prof. A.
r. Olmstead, Of the University of Illi-
nois, show high officials speaking their
minds with the greatest plainness, the
kings making pathetic appeals to those
whose support they would win. Their
imperial free cities were as free as
those in western Europe in the Middle
ages, with charters of freedom from
corners of the earth and to all
tongues. !,

Court Robbed Of Imposing Timepiece

been given "time" ut Berlin's central
criminal court in Moabit, but recently
an ingenious crook posing as repair

was being tried.
The sitting was well under way
when man in working clothes entered
the courtroom with long ladder
which he calmly placed under the
huge, imposing timepiece on the wall
The judge, counsel, accused and spec.
tators were astonished as such an un-
precedented interruption. The presi-
dent stopped the. workman's ascent Of
his ladder long enough to inquire the
meaning Of his conduct. The visitor
explained that he merely wanted to get
the clock for repair and that it would
take only moment. The president
objected, but consented when the man
said he already had called six times
and always found the court in session.
The vacant space on the wall sur
prised the janitor later in the day, and

Well. now I guess something's doing

I can hardly write-it wants to get
ahead so fast and tell. But I'm going
to keep it sternly back and tell it just
as it happened, and not begin at the

At the reception l saw Father right

of folks came up and spoke to him and
shook hands; and he bowed and smiled
but III between, when there wasn't

the look that came to his face; it was
so surprised and glad, and said, "Oh!
You'll" in such perfectly lovely way
that l choked all up and wanted to

The next minute he had drawn me

grew sour and cross and disagreeable.

she did not realize at all then what
she was doing. She was just thinking

worse. And she said that only went to
