CONDENSED STORIES.
How an Irish Juror’s Wit Helped the
* Defendant.
John G. Carlisle tells a story of
his early days when he was counsel
for an insurance company in Ken
tucky, says the New York Herald.
The company had brought an ac

small dry goods store which had
been destroyed by fire under rather
suspicious circumstances.
The proprietor was put on the
stand, and Mr. Carlisle, in his ca

were, however, of no avail, for the
proprietor stuck to his tale and
there seemed to be little hope of dis

had been following the testimony
with ill concealed impatience, shout

Mr. Carlisle, who was not slow to
follow up the advantage afforded .by
the Celt's unexpected outburst, the
proprietor virtually admitted his
guilt, whereupon his conviction
speedily ensued.
When the proceedings were over
Mr. Carlisle sought out the Irish
juror, whom he complimented on his
ready wit. “But,” said he, “mv
friend, how did you come to put that
question ? .It certainly enabled me

Papor Kettles.
In flic Japanese army every sol

are made of paper, the invention of

is poured over it. It is hung over
the fire, and in ten minutes the wa

used eight or ten times, and the cw-t
of it is about 2 cents.
