ACKLEY, Tailor 111 Cass St. 1 "This is a case, gentlemen of the Jury," said toe Judge after biting off the end of a plug of tobacco, "whar the prisoner took the law into his own hands by shoot in' Tom Mnrphy tn a friendly game o' draw. Bill Jones, tell the Jury why yo' done it." "We was bavin' a fa'r game," Bald the prisoner, "as 1 supposed. Thar was fou' dollars in the pot I showed a pa'r o queens oh tens. Tom showed a full o' queens on sevens. Now, I'll leave it to the Jury whether any pack o keerds they ever see had five queens ba ft" "Do yo rest yo' case thar?" asked the Judge. 'I does," replied tho prisoner. "Jim Brown," said the Judge, "I ap pointed yo' the persecutln' attorney in this case, and now I would like to know what yo got to say agin that hon'able and manly statement" "There Is two sides to every ques tion, yo honah the side of the pris oner and the side ag'In the prisoner. Now, the side agin the prisoner is this" "Have I got to listen to the other side?' asked the Judge. "Certainly, yo' bonnh." "I'd ruther not do that" "Wbyr , "'Cause I got my mind made up that the killln' o' Tom Murphy was justi fiable bo mere I de. If I listen to the other side I wont know whether I stand on my head or my heels." "It's the duty o' the cou't," replied Mr. Brown. 'lo listen to evidence on both sides. How yo goin' to decide on questions o' law without knowin' what yo' air talkln' about?" "Yo kin go on," said the judge re luctantly. "Bill Jones," began the prosecutor, "says that thar was two queens In his own hand and three in Tom Murphy's hand. How do we know, yo honah, but that Tom held three good queens and the -prisoner one from another pack ?" "1 tole yo so, Mr. Brown," remarked the Judge impatiently. "Yo gone and mixed me alt up. What have yo' got to say agiu that argyment, BUI Jones?" "I have to give yo' bonah a fac' that nnsti't been mentioned. As soon as Tom see that I had two queens he let one o hls'u drap." ."Thar, now. Mr. Brown, put in the Judge, "1 got it all straightened out. Don't yo' go mix me up agiu." "Bill Jones," asked the prosecuting attorney, "whar did the game and the shootiu' take place?" "In the Antlers saloon across the street." "When? "Tbls mornlnV "At what table?" "The one behind tho fur end o' the bur." "What queen was drapped?" "The queen o' diamonds." "Yo honah." turning to the judge, "will yo' please send ovnli to see if that queen is still lyln' on the Uoo'?" "Jim Coyne, yo go ovah. and if yo' kin II ml tin cyard bring It into court" There was a limn of conversation while the messenger was gone. Coyne returned and banded a card to the Judge, who looked at tt with perplex ity. "Jim Brown," he said angrily, "L tole yV)' yo' beltah leave t'other side o this case oloue. Yo' got it mixed up wo'se n ovah. This yere cyard Isn't the queen o' diamonds. It's the queen o spades." "I kin make It all plain to yo honor if you'll listen to me. 1 ain't a-goin' to argy high toned so's the jury can't un derstand, but plain. BUI Jones has been a cyard sharp for twenty yea's or mo. Is it likely that he couldn't tell the queen o spades from the queen o' din monds? "You bet he could, from the judge. Then Isn't it plain to yo honah and the jury that Bill Jones has convicted hlsscir o' perjury?" "Reckon he has!" exclaimed the Judge. "Whnt yo got to say agin that argyment, Bill Jones?" "I got this, yo' honah. Isn't It Jlst as bad cheatin' to drap a queen o spndes as a queen o' diamonds?" "Beckon," said the Judge, blown In the opposite direction, "yo' done right" "Yo' bonnh," put tn the prosecuting attorney. "1 hold In my hand the pack, of cyards the two were playtn with when the klllin come off. Now, If the queen you have belongs to this pack, Tom Murphy, who dropped that queen was Innocent o cheatin', wasn't be?" "Ofro'se." The cards were compared and were of the name backs. "Mr. Brown." said the Judge, "when nfr yo coin' to git through this case? The furdcr yo1 go the mo' yo' mix us up." Yo honah," cried the prisoner. "I cot J1;t one mo thing to say. Tom Murphy d nipped a crard with $4 In the pot. Iau't that enough to show hea tin'." "Yes." "Then I want to know what yo keep n up this trial foV The persecutln' (ttornoy got yo so mted up yo' don know whar yo' stand. I reckon yo' I -tter dismiss the cne." "The opinion o the con't Is that the MUliV was justifiable, because either no or t'other of 'em was monkeylri' with the cyards.
