SIDE-LIGHTS ON SEATTLE HOME LIFE
Laughs for Sixteen Hours at Ancient Joke;
Now Milwaukee Citizen Is Close to Death
MILWAUKEE, June 10.— (Special.)—" You'd have laughed yourself to dsath" la an axpresslon
which doean't appeal hers any more aa a funny colloquialism. Julius Jeswsin has come near doing
that vary thing. He went to a vaudeville show Sunday night and atarted to laugh at a story which
was told first in the days of old Rameses. He "ho, ho, hoed" and "ha, ha ha-ed" until the usher
told him that if he didn't quit he would have to leave the theatra.
The entire houae waa In an uproar. The act on the stage was paralyzed.
But with Mr. Jeswein. although he laughed and laughed, It could hardly be called a laughing mat
ter. He atood outaide the theatre and laughed until a big crowd gathered He laughed aoma more
when a policeman bade him move on. He waa aent to an emergency hospital, and ha laughed all
the way. They laid him on an operating table, and ha laughed himself off It. Hs laughed for
16 houra before the phyalclana could check hla flow of mirth.
Since the laughing haa been checked the patient haa lain In a precarious condition. His life Is
feared for. Hera Is the alleged Joke, told between two performera. which may be attended with fatal
reaulta:
••She—lf you were my huaband I'd give you polaon.
"He—lf you were my wife I'd take It."

for each of the nine judges for one year is $16,75.80, or $12,775.80 for each judge over and
above his salary.
Leaving out the cost of juries and witnesses and juvenile court officers, which would be the
same whether there were long or short vacations, the nine departments of the King county court
.till cost the taxpayers in 1912 the sum of $83,961.31, which, you see, is considerably more than
just the salaries of the judges at $4,000 per. Each court, not figuring juries and witnesses, cost
$9,329.03 per year, or $777.42 per month.
Now, when nine judges take their vacation they are
using up time for which the taxpayers are charged nine
times $777.42, or $6,996.78 a month, or $ 13.993.56
for two months* vacation.
