GREAT WISDOM OF MENELIK

Nil Ancestor King Solomon, Saoma

' London. ? The Negus MonellVn
? death at last having been officially as
5 tabllahed. after no many talae reports.
. many anecdotes about this picturesque
character are appearing. One of them
- Is In tba Times, and Is reminiscent of
. King Solomon. Menettk'a reputed an
cestor.
In Abyssinia the Mosaic law of an
1 eye tor an eye holds good In default
. of blood money Two men were gath
ering plums, one In tbs tree shaking
the branches and the other below col
I the climber fell on the gatherer and
broke his neck, himself escaping with
' Injuries from which he eventually
recovered. The family of the dead
man sued the survivor for the blood
money, some 1120 He bad no money
and refused to pay, whereupon the
plaintiffs demanded his life.
The case worked Its way up to the
supreme tribunal of Menellk himself,
by which time bitter feeling had been
engendered, and the claimants now ro
tated to accept blood-money, even if
offered, and demanded their full right
"Very well," said Menellk "Tou
' bavg the right to claim this man's
life; bnt the lew also says thst the
marderer shall be killed In the same
manner as bis victim. Therefore, let
one of you climb that tree"?pointing
to a huge sycamore 0g?"and fall
from lta branches on the culprit."
None of the plaintiffs would take the
risk, and the-- Innocent homicide es
caped.
True greatness of aptrtt was shown
by the Negus when, many years ago. a '
favorite and trusted Dejazmatcb re- '
volted. He was a chief of Influence ?
sod power, whose suppression la- i
volved considerable trouble and anxl- <
sty. but he was eventually captured ,
and brought In chains before the Ne- ?
gus Menellk asked blip why he had |
rebelled, and he replied: "To make ]
myself Negua." "Ah!" said Menellk. |
"do you think It is such an easy or j
pleasant thing to he- king of kings? j
Go back to your country and learn j
