The table rose higher Law books
and brief cases started to slide away
from it. The defendant and his lawyer
jumped away. The flow OF oratory
ended in dull Croak.
And then, as wrlthng roll seemed

things happened at once.

that the snake was merely enjoying a

Even as he tugged valiantly at its

Cooney Martin sat on the floor with
his hands against the floor and stared
slackmouthed. Only the python and
the big woman with the scarlet face
seemed to be having good time.
Mr.. Cooney Martins lawyer - his
name was Sparkling - shook his head
reprovingly, even as his glasses gilt
tered with triumph.
"Of course my plea probably had a
great deal to do with it" he said with
an indulgent smile. But the thing
that turned defeat into victory was the
miraculous escape of the python. Did
you notice the judges face when he
resumed the bench? Ha-ha. Exactly.

Every eye in the courtroom was
riveted on the attorney for the PLAIN
tiff, MIR. Cooney Martin, as he filled
the tall, dreary room with the sound
and fury of his injured client.
The injured plaintiff sat at the trial
table in his wrinkled linen suit, fam
ming himself with a yellow scratch pad.
Two men sat across the way, quite
evidently the defendant and his law
yer. The court stenographer wrote
furiously. The judges yellow lids kept
dropping over his eyes. His bailiff was
reading newspaper, a man beyond all
legal sound and fury. Against the rail-
ing which separated the trial table and
the court from the spectators, rested
large hamper made of some sort of
rattan. Immediately behind it, over
flowing small. hard chair, sat large
red-faced woman battling the humid
ity with huge handkerchief.
From time to time. as the lawyer
voice scared. the plaintiff twisted ner-
vously to eye the red-faced woman.
But the red-faced woman never no.
ticed him. The heat seemed to beat
down on the room. The plaintiff leaned
forward on his knees. Rather bitterly
he communed with himself. He had
been fool to take the old girl so
seriously. What had she meant by that
cockeyed telephone call? What could
she do that would give him break?
Not thing. Not damned thing. All
she could do was to sit there behind
the railing and stare over the hamper
at the course of justice.
Mr.. Cooney Martin brought his
head up YEARLY. The lawyer was put
ting on a good show, according to
instructions. He had the attention Of
his audience But - then. suddenly
Mr.. Cooney Martins abused eyes en-
countered the long face of the court.
What was the matter with the
judge? His Honor cold eyes were pop

manner. His mouth was working word
lessly. His trembling torefinger was
pointing at the rear end of the trial
table. 1t was slowly rising in the air.

on its two hind legs, went backward

ASSASSIN of the NiIe'

HELL EVERYBODY:
IL You know, boys and girls, I have often said that
you'll find adventure close to home a darned sight easier
than you will roaming the world. One who goes travelling
in search of thrills usually doesn't find any until he gets
back into his own bailiwick again. But there are excep-
tons to every rule-and here's one of them. George c.
Dorste of Bardonia, Rockland county, N. Y, met his big
gest thrill when he was thousands of miles away from home
and in a strange exotic country.
The country was Egypt, and George landed there in the
course of his travels as a .freman on a tramp steamer. The
steamer was carrying scrap iron, unloading it in consign-
ments of various sizes at ports along the Nile river and it's
many branches. The year was 1912, and the ship had
Travelled part way up the Nile and was anchored in the
river just south of the town of Medinet Ell Faiyum.
The ship was anchored not far from a pier. The weather
is pretty hot in Egypt. In the afternoon, particularly, the
sun beats down with such intensity that it is next to i'm
possible for anybody but a native to do any work. 1t was
at the height of the hot season, and the crew of the steamer, dripping
sweat from every pore of their bodies, were just about all in. Along in
the afternoon the skipper gave orders for all hands to knock off work for
the rest of the day.
The men didn't argue about that. Most of them just walked to
the shadiest spot they could find on that hot ship, Topped o n the
deck and rested. But there we're a half dozen young fellows
George among them-who had a better idea. They stripped of
their clothes and dived over the side into the water.
