The Arabs, clever horsemen as the; tre, are quite as liable to accident as English grooms. But the Arub likes to be kicked by a thoroughbred horse and ennnot endure to be put to any pain by an nuluial whose pedigree Is at all de fective. An English surgeon bad been setting the broken leg of an Arab who couipiatued more of the accident that had befallen him than was thought be coming iu one of his tribe. This the surgeon remarked to him, and his an swer was truly characteristic. "Do you think, doctor.

He bad slain his father and mother ou testimony so clear that there could be no shadow of doubt as to his guilt The Jury brought In a verdict of not guilty. It was an example of the comic jury yes. screamingly funny comedians a troupe of twelve led by a comic fore man. The judge was furious and asked tbe comedians what they meant by such itn outrageous verdict "when they knew the culprit was guilty and ought to lie hanged. "That's Just it tny lord," said the foreman, of this distinguished body. "I assure you we had no doubt about the prisoner's guilt but wt thought there had been deaths enough In tbe family lately!"

Wasted Entrgy. A Baltimore man had decided that be must administer a stern lecture to his six-year-old son Harry. The boy had been naughty, but did not seem to ap preciate the fact, and it was with some reluctance, therefore, that the parent undertook a scolding. He spoke Judiciously, but severely. He recounted the lad's misdeeds and duly explained the whys and where fores of his solemn rebuke, bis wife the while sitting by duly Impressed.

"Room without bath, S3.QO; witn bath, H" the clerk rattled off glibly. The dusty and bedraggled one pon dered. 'Well, please give me." he remarked llnally, "a bath without a room. And kindly see that a nice soft eiderdown pillow is placed In the tub. Also be especially sure that" At this point a cold glitter in the clerk's eye closed the incident. New York Times. Ignored the Old Law. The evidence bad shown that the brick which a careless workman had dropped from a scaffolding twenty feet above the surface of the ground had fallen ou a man's shoulder and broken a bone, but the jury decided that the victim had no cause for ac tionthe falling cf the brick bad no necessary connection with the acci dent.
