Scuteur lug a 1i-Ikoiit.
Once upon a time, says Georgo R.
13. Hayes, thero was a judge uame-1
Redman, who presided over a big terri
tory which kept him racing from Santa
Cruz to Salinas and San Luis ObisjK.
The Spanish iK-pulatiun was tlu chief
race to be found in that district, and
Redman knew but two words in tho
language whicJl . wf6 'No tic-nde,' and
was put -to the necessity of employing a
court interpreter, .-who attended him in
his rapid tour of the big circuit.
It happened that a murderer was to
be sentenced in Monterey and that an
important trial must lo attended miles
away on the name day. Redman's in
terpreter had gone oil to a fandango in
the wilds somewhere and couldn't bo
found when court was ojK-ned, and Red
man was in a fury of impatience. At
last, when he could endure the delay no
longer, he said to the man below in the
dock:
'Prisoner at the bar, stand up!"
"No tiende," said the man, shaking
his head stupidly.
"You don't savey, do you?" exclaimed
the judge sharply. "Well, do you un
derstand this?" and he proceeded to ges
ticulate vigorously with his hands and
indicate the motion of rising.
The man finally comprehended and
arose stiffly in his seat.
"Prisoner at the bar, it is the sentence
of this court that you be taken from the
place whence you camo on Friday, the
27th day of Juno next, be hanged, by the
neck until you are dead, and may God
have mercy on j'our soul. Now, do you
savey that?"
The poor prisoner shook his head in a
bewildered fashion and could only cry,
"No tiende, no tiende."
"Is there anybody present in this court
who can translate that awful sentence
to this prisoner?" demanded the judge of
the half a dozen of officials and specta
tors in the room. They were all in the
same boat as the prisoner and could only
shake their heads mournfully.
"Well," exclaimed the judge, a bright
thought striking him, "I'll just show
you, then, this way!" whereupon Le un
reeled a yard of red tapo that lay on
the desk, and twisting it hurriedly about
his own neck held tho two ends high
over his left ear, at the same time rolling
his eyes and "wagging his tongue down
against his chin.
A dreadful groan went up from the
prisoner and from the others in the court
room. They understood the grim ju
dicial kindergarten completely. Han

Ammonia for Kleetric Shock.
An ingenious dentist has been making
some interesting experiments with ani
mals which have been nearly killed by
electric shocks.
On Wednesday ho was standing on
the street and saw a sparrow in a small
pool of water left by the street sirinkler.
The bird soon went up and flew to a wire
overhead. Tho shock at once sent him
to the ground, where he lay until the
dentist picked him up, barely able to
move his wings. The gentleman breathed
into the sparrow's mouth and let him
go. As the shock was not a very bad
one the bird was soon able to fly,
but ho again returned to a dangerous
locality, and the result was another
shock much worse than the first. When
the bird, fell to the ground he was ap
parently lifeless, but the dentist took
him to the office and began an experi
ment. He at first resorted to artificial respira
tion as before, and then injected in the
bird's flesh aromatic spirits of ammonia
and poured a few drops diluted with
water down the sparrow's throat. He
then put him in a dry closet and gave
him some clear water after a few min
utes. "When placed in the closet the
bird's body was nearly cold, but the
treatment proved so effective that in
less than an hour he was able to fly as
well as ever and was liberated. Eastern

"OIl Bill," That's All.
A familiar figure to all who have busi
ness about Park row is "Old Bill," the
spectacle vendor. Day after day for the
past twenty years or more this unique
figure has arrived in front of No. 31 at
an early hour in the morning and nn:
folded a little campstool sort of contri
vance, on which he places a small tray
containing a few of the cheaper variety
of eyeglasses. After this he lights his
pipe and awaits the occasional customer.
In winter Bill's tall, spare figure is
hidden in a heavy overcoat buttoned to
the chin, his thin face peeping out from
a huge cap with large sides, that fold
down over his ears. When the first days
of summer approach the heavy trap
pings are cast aside and the purveyor of
"eye windows" appears resplendent in
straw hat, light trousers and clean linen
duster.
All inquiries as to the surname of this
odd figure fail to elicit anything satis
factory, and his cognomen of "Old Bill"
is all that can be gathered. Of course
he is reported to be wealthy all such
unique characters always are. New

We have been asked the origin of
the motto of the world's W. C. T. U.,
"For God and Home ind Every
Land." Great minds are apt to act
in concert, but so far as we know its
name was suggested by some of
our Michigan white-ribboners who
sought to find a motto analogous
to the one we already had, and it
was moved in the Minneapolis con
vention by Mrs. Benjamin that we
suggest this as the motto of the
world's W. C. T. U.', which was done
by vote in 18SG.
A royal commission has been ap

An enjoyable entertainment was
held recently in the interest of tem
perance by the ladies of Eddyville,
Dawes county, Neb., at the instance
of one or two- members of the W. C.
T. U. visiting there. This was to be
the first of a series of entertain
ments with the two-fold object of
establishing a branch of the W. C.
T. lT. in KJd. ville, and of fighting
the saloon that is trying so hard to
find an entrance. Success to the

University extension is having a
mighty boom in these days and
gospel extention is also getting a
little underway, Sometimes we
hear that, the churches do not reach
the people, that the pastors talk to
the same set the year around,while
the mass passes by. There is much
truth in this, and some of our more
progressive pastors have adapted
the plan of theatre preaching and
out door services. The Crusade
taught us the lesson that Mohamet
must go to the mountain. From
the saloon drinking men followed
the crusader to the church, which
were in those days kept open like
gates of gospel grace from morn
until eve. Temperance meetings
are now held in every part of Chris
tendon at all hours and in most un
accustomed places the depot wait

undertake, we urge you, sisters of
the local unions, to establish and
maintain these blessed, free-hearted,
open handed gatherings for the
people; "the great humanity that
beats its life along the stony street."
