Excuse of Election Judge Blown Away
by Investigator.
In recalling incidents connected
with Virginia politics Bome years ago
a prominent Virginian recently re
lated an account of an investigation
of election frauds in the lower aec
tion of the jteta. In the course of
the proceedings it developed that the
ballots In an Important precinct had
not been sealed after tho final count,
thereby being exposed to fraudulent
practices. The chairman of the inves
titrating committee closely questioned
the election Judgre as to why the pre
scribed duty of carefully securing the
ballots had been neglected.
"Could you not obtain any mucilag
In tho town?"
"No, sir."
"Could you not procure nome eal
Ing wax, some shoemaker's wax, If
nothing else?"
"No, sir."
"Well, then, sir, why didn't you
go out into the woods and get some

there were no pine treos around there

cality?"
Ceese Make Good Actors.
A farmer would scarcely believe
that a goose requires only about 60
hours In order to prepare it for tha
footlights and a critical audience, and
that a common pig, which has been

be competent to blossom forth as aa
actor. According; to Mr. Clyde Pow
ers, a trainer of wide experience an(f
much patience, it takes a duck about
three days to learn bow to march on
the stage, to follow the chorus, and to
march off again at the proper time; if
takes a chicken a week or more, and a
turkey cannot grasp the art of acting
before six months' time. Mr. Powers
bas tried to train a peafowl, but be
finds that it is impossible. A goose
