Laugh a little

The Slip

One day, Jacob, a Russian Jew slipped on the wet riverbank and fell into the water.  Unfortunately, Jacob could not swim and was in serious danger of drowning.  Two Tsarist policemen heard cries for help and rushed over.  But when they saw that it was a Jew, they laughed and just stood their watching him drown.

"Help, I can't swim," shouted Jacob.

"Then you will just have to drown," they replied.

Suddenly Jacob shouts with his last breath: "Down with the Tsar!"

The policemen immediately rushed into the river, pulled Jacob out, and arrested him for trouble making.
