Jiuraorous department. Judge and Lawyers. The judge had had his patience sorely tried by lawyers who wished to talk and by men who tried to evade jury service. Between hypothetical questions and excuses it seemed as if they never would get to the actual trial of the case. So when the puzzled little German who had been accepted by both sides jumped up, the judge was exasperated. "Shudge!" cried the German. "What is it?" demanded the judge. "I think I like to go home to my wife," said the German. * "You can't," retorted the judge. "Sit down." " noroietoH tho fjprmnn. dul, oiiuu5c, ?.*v , "I don't tink I make a good shuror." "You're the best, in the box," said the Judge. "Sit down." "What box?" asked the German. "The jury box," said the judge. "Oh I thought it was a bad box that peoples gets in somedimes." "No," said the Judge: "the bad box is the prisoner's box." "But, Shudge," persisted the little German; "I don't speak good English." "You won't have to speak any at all," said the judge. 'Sit down." The little German pointed at the lawyers to make his last desperate plea. "Shudge," he said, "I can't make noddings out of what these fellers say." It was the Judge's chance to get even for many annoyances. "*T-U1 oloo " Via said. ineuuei wan anjwuv. VW ? "Sit down." With a sigh the little German sat down. Too Poor to be a Bankrupt. Bankruptcy is a word that means the limit of financial misfortune to most business men, but it isn't the limit by any means. This truth was brought out most forcibly yesterday in the office of Henry F. Cassin, United States commissioner: Mr. Cassin was approached by a man whose tailor-made garments had grown slippery in some spots and frazzled in others. He wore a careworn expression and the need of a haircut on his face. "Is this the place to institute bankruptcy proceedings?" asked the man. "It is," said Mr. Cassin. "Well, I want to file a petition. I have been in business for several years and have made an awful mess of it." "The proceedings will cost you about 535," said Mr. Cassin. "I haven't got any 535 and can't get it," was the response. "Sorry then, but we can't do anything for you," said the commissioner. "I knew I was hard up but blamed if I thought it was possible to be too blamed poor to become a bankrupt," said the applicant as he turned up his coat collar and made for the door. Painful, Situation.?The train on which the distinguished citizen was traveling for the purpose of fulfilling a lecture engagement was late, and he arrived at his destination only an hour or two before the time appointed for the meeting, says the Chicago Tribune. He went straight to the hotel and was shown up to his room. He was tired and dusty. "Boy," he said "bring me a whisk." The boy went to execute the mission. and a few minutes later a com mittee from the local society under whose auspices he was to appear called upon him in his room. He was conferring with the committee when the boy returned, bearing a tray containing a glass of water and a small glass with a red liquid in it. "What's this?" he demanded. "It's the whisky you ordered, sir." "I didn't order any whisky!" he gasped. "I ordered a whisk broom!" But every member of the committee representing the Turkeyville Total Abstinence society, will believe to his dying day that the distinguished lecturer got exactly what he had ordered on that occasion. Threw In the Tobacco.?In city stores where clerks have no control over the prices of goods the old time practice of "throwing in" something with a purchase has gone out of fashion. Years ago. however, whSn "Long John" Wentworth, afterward Mayor Wentworth of Chicago, was a clerk in a grocery store, it was an established custom. A certain customer was particularly urgent in his appeals for what in New Orleans is called "lagnappe." "Now, Johnny, my boy," he said on one occasion when he had bought a gallon of molasses, "can't ye just throw in a trifle of fine cut?" Young Wentworth looked at him for a moment; then his eye twinkled. "Certainly," he said, and uncorking the jug, he "threw in" a handful of chewing tobacco. It cured the man of his habit of asking for a bonus, if not of the habit of chewing tobacco. Put In His Time.?"I was traveling down south," said Robert B. Mantell, "and while driving in the country I saw a darkey under a tree by the roadside. He was gazing up through the branches, while by his side was a hoe. Weeds were growing luxuriantly in the cornfield which stretched over acres into the distance. "'What are you doing?" I asked the negro. " Tse out here to hoe that corn,' said the darkey. "The answer was given in an inimitable drawl. 'Then what are you doing under this tree? Resting?" I persisted. " " 'No.sah. I'se not restin',' was the answer. 'Ah'm not taihed. Ah'm waitin' faw the sun to go down so ah kin quit wuhk.'" By Elimination.?One day. as Pat halted at the top of the river bank, says the Christian Advocate, a man, famous for his inquisitive mind, stopped and asked: "How long have you hauled water foi* the village, my good man?" "Tin years, sor." "Ah! How many loads do you take in a day?" "From tin to fifteen, sor." "Ah. yes! Now I have a problem for you. How much water at this rate have you hauled in all, sir?" The driver of the watering-cart jerked his thumb backward toward the river and replied, "All the wather yez don't see there now, sor." ittisccllanrous grading. FROM CONTEMPORARIES.

Long, a prosperous farmer living about three miles from Stanley, had the misfortune to lose his barn and all its contents by fire a few nights ago. The loss included seven cows, one horse, one mule, $100 worth of feed, a lot of guano and some farm implements, the total loss amounting to $500 or more. The origin of the fire is unknown. Mr. Long has the sympathy of many friends in his heavy loss. CURIOUS FIRE STORIES. Some Odd Incidents That Came to Light In Baltimore. Odd incidents of the big Baltimore fire are coming to light, says a correspondent. Here are some of them: William Musser, a farmer on the Belair road about seven miles beyond the eastern limits of the city, brought to town the other day 160 pounds ol Sumatra leaf tobacco and is $42 richer by reason of the fire. To R. Cuzzoni, the cigar maker, to whom he sold the tobacco, he explained that it had been blown over his farm, together with cinders, on the Sunday evening of the fire. The tobacco came from a big warehouse in this city which was burned. In the main it was but slightly injured. Like all old cities, the business portion of Baltimore, especially the warehouses near the harbor, was overrun with rats. Police officers and firemen who were on duty in the lower district say that at times on Sunday and Monday the rodents would pour out of buildings in regiments and go galloping toward the river. Since the fire not a rat has been seen in the burned district nor immediately adjacent. It is also estimated that more than a thousand cats lost their lives in the burning warehouses. It is estimated that about $10,000 in paper money was destroyed during the rush of flame. Several incidents of finding the charred remains of bank notes have been made known at the Sub-Treasury. The most peculiar one made Capt. William Ross of the oyster pungy Mary Ross the richer by $100. The Mary, when the fire began to come down Pratt street, was towed out into the stream and her sails hoisted. Seven miles below the city Capt. Ross found on the deck of his craft a black piece of paper. It almost crumbled at the touch of his hand. Noticing that it was ajiuonoie, ne carefully lifted it with a case knife and kept it flat in a book. The genuineness of the note was so apparent at the office of Sub-Treasurer Dryden that it was redeemed. The office cat of the United Electric Railways company, which had offices on the tenth floor of the Continental Trust building, has been found wandering about the gutted structure. The building, or at least the woodwork in it. burned like a torch. The flames destroyed every desk, every door, every inflammable article in the whole great structure. Where Peggy hid to escape is a profound mystery. It is certain that she was locked in the office on Saturday night and that the room was not opened on Sunday. Peggy can give a splendid imitation of how a singed cat looks, and appears to have lost some of her spirit. More than a thousand steel safes went down in the ruins, and now that they are being opened, many surprises are discovered. Felix ,R. Sullivan of 25 South Water street was overjoyed to see his big strongbox come up out of the ruins apparently unhurt save for the paint. The combination lock yielded to his manipulation as easily as ever. When he swung the door back, however, he found every scrap of paper within it reduced to ashes. Even the bit of brussels carpet on the floor of the safe was but charred wool. A big safe belonging to the largest firm of pawnbrokers in Baltimore appeared intact when brought out of the ruins. It contained 324 gold and sil ver watcnes, zuu ammona <uiu umci rings and a lot of miscellaneous gold and silver ornaments. Except for less than a score of pieces, the watches, rings and ornai ments had all melted and run together in one big lump on the floor of the safe. The inside ? of the heavy doors was not even scorched, and yet every wooden drawer In the safe was in i ashes. Several safes which were opened before they had cooled exploded the i moment air reached the Interior, and set everything within on fire. i i G. E. Leary of Rock Hall, Md., 25 miles from Baltimore, has sent here a bill of lading picked up on his farm and made out by the Old Bay Line the day before the fire. Its edges were slightly burned. This indicates the velocity of the wind during the fire. L. G. Mathews, of the insurance firm of H. L. Spear & Co., remembered during the fire that in the firm's safe along with valuable papers were several boxes of parlor matches. He made a desperate effort to reach the strong i box, but failed. When the safe was opened not a match had been ignited by the tremendous heat, and everything was intact. Thomas R. Jenifer who lives at Towson seven miles from the city, found in i his front yard on the Tuesday after I the fire a charred portion of a Testament, and carefully enclosed therein, and uninjured, a portion of Ingersoll's lecture on Voltaire. A scorched postal card of the Third National bank was found by N. N. ' Keune at Bear Creek, Md., about thirty 1 miles from the city in a straight line. L That some men are marked for ill 1 luck is shown by the misfortune of S. . T. Rodberg, a Baltimore street jewel, ler. Some years ago he was robbed of diamonds valued at several thousand ( dollars. His safe has just been opened, and the $40,000 worth of diamonds , and jewelry it contained are found to be ruined. The gold had all melted and run to> gether. The stones are, he says, of little if any value now. In the same safe , a white silk handherchief was found whole and unsoiled.
