LONDON, May 2.--The lord chief
justice of England. Lord Hewart, has
become known as the chief Jokester"

Tended divorce petitions.
When his lordship had heard SO of
the petitions he remarked:
IF the chancellor of the exchequer
really desires an additional source of
revenue, as has been reported, he
might consider the desirability of is
suing decree nisi postage stamps at
the post Office
AT Leeds a few days before the
justice set the worth of an erring
