SHEARING BY THE CANDLE.

**EASTSEN FASHION»

A quaint scene was witnessed at West London Police Cours recently, when a prosecutor and a prisoner, neither of whom could speak English, desired to take the oath in Eastern fashion by blowing out a candle. "

Mr. De Grey (the magistrate: Good gracions Blew out a candle!

The Usher (through the interpreter): Yes, prosecutor says, that's his oath."

Mr. De Grey: Well, let him blow out candle, then.

A coodle in a gilded candlestick was produced and lit and blown out by the prosecutor.
