The young invader was the first
prisoner out. lie had got through
with his tears, wiped his nose all lie
wallt? d to, ami it could he plainly
5- en that he meant to make a tie*
once.
'.Now, Mr. Joy,' began the court,
'please do your swearing in a gentle
lone of voice, and do not get excited
and break your pace. You will also
stick to the truth and nothing but the
truth.'
The old man looked red in fiie face
as tie took the stand and related the
facts in the case. He described his
emotions* as he looked from the win
dow ami saw his farm being invaded,
ami licsworo that the boy before him
was none other than the identical
thief.
'Bijcr,1 began the boy as he braced
up, 'ye know ye found me asleep in a
havemcnt, and that ye brought ine
here, 'cause 1 hilled at yer bald head !
Don't go for to swearing to a lie,
Bijer!'
'B-boy !' began the old man, but
his honor interrupted:
Mr. Joy, have you any other wit
nesses ?'
'No, sir; but my word?'
'Your word, Mr. Joy, is solid as
lar as it. goes, but justice must he
done in this ense, The lad's testi
mony must balance yours. You have
no witnesses?not even th3 onions
yon claim he stole.'
'Smell of his hands!' shouted Bijah
'smell of his paws !'
The hoy had not. been idle during
the few minutes "be occupied a cell.
He promptly held up his hand.', an d
the court bent over nnd sum (led n',
them.
It was a moment of intense interest,
but the boy was calm and confident.
'Mr. Joy,' remarked his honor as
hs rttficd back in his chair, 'this
court detects a faint smell of halibut ,
pitch, orange peel and cigar stub, bli t
not the slightest trnco of onions, I
must discharge him. Let this bo a
great moral lesson to you ncvorto
put up a job on a young and innocent
child again. Had my noso been less
discriminating, er lind I not known
you so well, this hoy would have go no
to prison and his whole lifo .boon
blasted !'
Bijah fell hack. Pulling a beauti
ful half-dollar from his pocket ho
whispered to the hoy :
'Sonny, yon good little angel, como
into the corridor just a minute while
I beg your pardon !'
'Ye can't sonny mo can't play no
bootjack over this inner cent!' sneered
the lad, and he irpide a dive through
the crowd tor the door.
Words of Wisdom.
Unreasonable ha te is the road to
error,
A woman who wants a charitable
hee.rl wants a pure heart.
Man)' arc willing enough to wound
w ho a re yet afraid to strike.
Some mourn more the shame which
sin brings, than the sin which brings
the shame.
We esteem others not so m ich for
what they are. Worth, as for what
they are worth to us.
The mind has a certain vegetativa
power, which cannot be wholly idle.
If it is not laid out and cultivated
into a beautiful garden it will of itself
shoot up weeds or flowers of a wild
growth.
Talent is power;tact is skill. Tal
ent makes a man respectable; tact
makes him respected. Talent con
vinces; tact converts. Talent com
mands; tact is obeyed. Talent is
something; tact is everything.
It is astonishing how much one
without money may give. A kind
word, a helping hand?the warm
sympathy that rejoices with those who
weep. No man is so poor, no woman
is so poor, as not to bo able to con
tribute largely to the happiness of
those about them.
We have nothing of our own but
our will; all the rest is not ours. Sick
ness deprives us of health au I lif.^
riches are taken away from us by
violence; the talents of the mind de
pend on the disposition of the body;
the only thing that is truly our own
is our will.
It was finely said by Socrates that
the shortest and most direct roud to
popularity is "for a man to bo tho
same that the wishes to be taken for."
People are egregiously mistaken if
they* think they can ever attain to
popularity by hypocrisy by more out
side appearances, and by disguising
not only their language but their
looks. True popularity takes deep
root, and spreads itself wide; but the
false falls away liko blossoms; for
nothing that is false can bn lusting

How two Sundays can come in one
Week.
In one of Edgar Toe's stories he
shows how two Sundays can come in
?nie week. (.'apt. lioutwcll thus ex
plains it: If you establish the city
of New York ns your prime meridian,

world, ono by the route of the ('ape
Of Good Hopu and the oth er by Cape
Horn, they will, when they meet on
the other Me of the gl d>o, diflkr a

noon on hoard of the western hound

time every day, while tho ship sailing
*vost loses time, ami when they meet
tin; differences of time will amount to

The Sleepless Edison.
One of Kdison's ideas is that a
man doesn't need to sleep. Probably
be hasn't enjoyed a proper amount of
rest at any one time for thrco years.
His brain goes like a saw mill, all
tho time, and he says ho has no timo
to sleep. He experiments and works
day and night without cessation.
When bed-time comes E lison is as
oblivious of Lite faot as one si do of the
present Potter Congress is ?>f the exis
tence of Mr. Cronin, from Oregon.
The great inventor digs away at his
work until nature is completely ex
hausted, and then ho tumbles into bed
for two or thrco hours of sloop. This
may be at morning, noon, or night,
just as the lit of weariness seizes him.
Not one man in ten could do it ami

Capt. Boynt oil's Story of his Great
Swimming Feat.
Capt. Boynton has written to a
French paper a most amusing ac
count of his swim across the Strait s
ofGibraltcr. IIo says that tho feat
was far more difficult than swimming
across the Straits of Dover, for tho
current carried him so far that he
traversed tilt.y miles iu doing the
journey. He adds, I saw several
sharks, hut none oftheni made a meal
of me, and I owe thuui my best ac
knowledgments. I sidle red much
from the sun and the salt water
which came into my eyes, and I wa;
almost blind when I landed. As I
was not expected atTangicrs, I blew
my horn as i approached the town.
Some Moorish guards came down to
know w hat !he noise was about, and
seeing me emerge from the sea, they
ran back to arouse the town, declar
ing that the devil had just come,
ashore. I 'ell them the same day by
steamer."
The total eclipse of the sun on July
20th of the present year can bo more
favorably observed in tho Unite d
States than in any other country in
the world, and it is already evident
that a large number of foreign astron
omers will go to Denver to witness it.
That city is very near the line of to
tality, and enjoys the advantage of
usually clear w father at that time of
the year. On January 11, 1830,
another total eclipse will bo visible
on ihcjgrestern shore of the American
continent, near Money in California;
but it will bo totai theo for only about
forty seconds, 'and that only just be
fore sunset. According to xXuturc, it
d? cs not appeal that after the present
year there will be another total eclip
se very favorably circumstanced for
observation in the United S tatcs un
til September 1G, 1923; and that j our
nal has already published the ele
ments of the eclipse.
Next!?An intelligent farmer of
Des Meines county has invented a
henophohe, modelled on the principle
of the telephone, by which one old
hen occupying a central oflice in the
henery sits on all the nests about the
establishment, leaving other fowl.?
free, to lay eggs, and cackle. As
soon as a new nest contains the full
complement of eggs, it is connected
with the central office by a coppor
wire, and the business is settled. The
only trouble with the machine is that
it sits so hard it batches out tho por
celain nest eggs with the others, so
that one chick in every nest is born
with glass eyes, and the farmer has
to buy a id train- a dog to lead it
around. This makes it expensive.?

Tho Editor of Vanity Fair (Lon
don) speaks for others of the profes
sion as well as himself, in saying : "I
am daily assailed by friends wh > ,
either on their own account or on ac
count of somebody else, implore me
in the name of friendship to-keep'
such and such .a thing'out of the

position, 1 am alway inclined to in
dulge them; but it really must have a
limit, for if it goes on I shall either
have to present my readers with a
handsome blank page, or else I must

more than love that made that follow
groan ?
