It was a dull day in the court. Among the prisoners was ar unfortunate whom the police would ‘an ordinary bum.” He had been arrested for intoxication.

The magistrate asked a few more raestions of the prisoner. “Well,” he said finally, “this poor man looks as if he needed a bath. Here, officer, take this five-dollar bil and take this man somewhere where he can get a good bath, a good mea} and a clean bed.” The prisoners eyes glisteneS “The prisoner,’ continued the mag- istrate, “is honorably discharged. You are honorably discharged. Go and sin no more.” As soon as the policeman got his prisoner to the street he booted him half a block and then the policeman, the lawyer and the rest of the court erowd had several rounds of drinks at the corner saloon out of the five dollar bill. And they say that the magistrate had as much fun out of the story as anybody when they told it to him a week later. But it didn’t break his faith in the grand army man. Sitting Hen Protects Purse. Mrs. William Rigg arion, Ind., the arrest of Frank Garigus on the charge of stealing a pocketbook containing $40, which she alleged was hidden under a tub at her home. While Garigus was awaiting trial Mrs. Riggs remembered having transferred the pocketbook from the tub and of plac- ing it under a sitting hen in the barn.

It had scarcely uttered its first ery when Bowles heard a } commotion in the brush, and looking up saw two deer, a big buck and a doe, bounding toward him. The buck had on a fierce front, the bristle on his neck standing erect and his eyes blazed with fury. Bowles hastily climbed a tree. He got out of range time to escape a savage lunge from his horns. The doe took the fawn away into the wood. The buck, however, stayed right at the foot of the tree and pranced and snorted around it at move Bowles made, keeping him there until long after dark.
