The plaintiff's lawyer argues his own case before the judge, stmply to show that he has a case and the nature of it. The defendant ddes not plead, but if he can disputes the facts. If the judge considers there is no case he dismisses the plaintiff. In the con: trary case he appoints an assessor out of a dozen chosen yearly of the town’s reputed merchants to decide upon it. The following day the assessor calls he gatbers their documents and dis- misses them. Two or three days later he communicates his judgment to the Solicitors through the court, and the business is ended. - The costs of law- yers und the court fees come to about £6 a side. The sume case in England would take six months at least and cost no less than £150 fer a claim of £50.—London Mall, b Roosevelt Speaks in Many Town Billings, Mont., April 15.—Colonsl Theodore Rogsevelt outlined: the creed on American citizenship' in this city and Eastern Montana towns generally, speaking to large crowds from the end of the train at Columbus, Laurel, Biilings, Huntley, Worden, Miles City, Forsyth and Glendive. In this city the train was held thirty minutes and Mr. Roosevelt addressed 9,000 people. His System of Self Defense. “Have you ever studied the art of self defense?’ said a young fellow to | a man of magnificent physique and noble bearing. The elder man looked at his ques- tloner with a quiet smile and then an- | swered thoughtfully: “Yes, I have studied and practiced it” “Ah!" said the other eagerly. “Whose system did you adopt?” “Solomon’s,” was the reply. Somewhat abashed, the youth stam- mered out: “Solomon’s! What is the special point of his system of train- ing?" “Briefly this,” replied the other: ‘A soft answer turneth away wrath.'” For the moment the young man felt an inclination to laugh and looked at his friend anxiously to see whether he was serlous. But a glance at the ac- complished athlete was enough, and soon a very different set of feelings came over the youth as his muscular companion added, with silent empha- sis, “Try. it.” — Christian Endeavor World. The “Green Flash” at Sunset. A correspondent writes that during i the course of a voyage when midway between Marseilles and the strait of Bonifacio a “green flash” was seen at sunset. The sky was perfectly clear after a cloudless day, with little wind. As the sun approached the horizon the line 'twixt sea and sky for about forty- five degrees each side of the sun be- came suffused with a rich dull rose pink, and the waves reflected a mar- velous ruby shade on their surfaces facing the -sunset, while the other { faces were an opalescent blue or green from the upper sky. The two colors flashed and. changed in a marvelous way. Such intensity of coloring had never been seen by those on board. The sun set clean into the sea, and about ten (or less) seconds after it had ! disappeared a bright green single flash, {just like a railway signal lamp, but | brighter far, met our view and re- i warded our watching for it.—Symons’ Meteorological Magazine. A Good Creed. | 'To be able to look every man square- ly in the eyes; to make friends and | hold them; to keep clean of mind and body; to smile at ill fortune; to laugh at my mistakes; to frown when temp- | tation comes avisiting; to be ready with a word of cheer when that word will help; to strive to develop to the utmost the heart, head and band | qualities endowed by the Ruler over all; to hold all women in respect and to love one; to weave the thread of i eternal optimism into the lives of all | with whom I may come in contact; to worship nature and the Great Spirit that conceived 1t all—in a word, to play the game of life with a steady hand and a qualmless conscience and a real desire to be of service—that is my re- liglon. And, ‘say, if T can live up to the mark, don’t you think I've corralled about all the creed that Is necessary?— Backbone Monthly. A 8tream of Water. A high pressure jet of water will bowl over a man as easlily as a box of matches and leave him half stunned. It will even turn a bullet from its path. Experiments have shown that a jet of water can be produced at such a high pressure that it becomes practically a bar of iron. Swords have been blunted in attempting to cut through these ex- tra high pressure jets. Some years ago an armed thief attempted to hold up a high officfal of the Bank of England in his private office. The official man- aged to get out of the room unharmed and locked the ‘door, A resourceful at- tendant brought the fire hose. He opened the door sufficiently to insert the nozzle. In a few minutes the would be thief was picked up sense- less.—Pearson’s Weekly. The Lion and the Lamb. He was a gentleman of the old school —never mind his wrinkled brown skin and wrinkled brown clothes—and it was with the most distinguished po- liteness that he gave his order to’ the butcher man: ~ “De madam say please to cut her two lam’ chops fum de lion, suh.” The butcher man jerked a loin from a hook, and his customer watched him cut into it. And a waiting woman sald to herself: ‘“Addition forty-eleven to the litera- ture of the lion and the lamb.”"—Wash- ington Star. His Denomination. Dean de Moulin of Trinity cathedral told this bright little story during one of his delightful talks not long ago: A man was asked to what religious denomination he belonged. He thought it over. “Why,” he presently replied, “I be- Heve it is the Episcopal church I stay away from.”—Cleveland Plain Dealer. ! PR T 2 A Misintorpreted Question. A young Canadian visited Washing- ton one winter to spend the holidays with a pretty cousin and her family. As he was motoring with his pretty cousin one afternoon she said to him: “Do you have reindeer in Canada?” . darling,” he answered quickly. At this season it always snows.” He Wasn’t Afraid. ‘When Bishop Phillips Brooks was “commanded,” as the phrase goes, to speak before the queen some one ask- ed if he was afrald. “No,” he replied, smiling; “I have preached before my mother.” | Not Serious. “Husband, .1 found a lock of hair among your old papers.

In the three towns named fifty persons were more or less seriously injured., REPARATION MUST BE MADE American Casualties. ‘Washington, April 15—The Mexican government, according to fhe view at the state department, will be held ac- countable for the loss of life and in- jury to Americans of Douglas, Ariz., during the fighting between federals and insurrectos at Agua Prieta.
