The Dawn Of the Miilennium-A Grand
Jury of Women owOrn-A Lady Bat
gsR a Aa


lla Attends Them.
ciary OF Wyoming sustains the right of wo-
men to serve as grand jurors. All the Ia
dies drawn as grand jurors were present at
eleven o'clock. A motion to uuash the panel
was not sustained. At l1:55 A. NJ. the first
panel of lady grand jurors in the world was
sworn. None asked to be excused. A lady
bailiff was appointed for the grand jurors.
splendid address was delivered by Chief
Justice Howe.
In impanneling and charging the grand
jury, Judge Howe said: Ladies and gen.
tlemen of the Grand Jury-It is novelty to
see, as we do to-day, ladies summoned to
serve as jurors. The extension of political
rights and franchises to woman ia
subject that is agitating the whole
country. l have never taken an active part
in discussions, but have long seen that w0-
man was victim to the vices, crimes, and
immortality of man, with no power to protect
and defend herself from these evils. have
long felt that such powers OF protection
should be conferred upon woman, and it has
fallen to our lot here to act as the pioneer in
this movement, and to test the question.
The eyes of the world are to-day fixed upon
this jury of Albany county. There is not the
slightest imprOpriety in any lady occupying
the position, and wish to assure you that
the fullest protection of the court shall be
accorded to you. 1t would be most shame
full scandal upon our temple of justice and
courts of law, if anything should be permit
ted which the most sensitive lady might not
hear with propriety and witness; and here
let me add, it will be sorry day for any man
who shall so far forget the courtesles due
and paid by every American gentleman to
every American lady as to even by word
or act endeavor to deter you from the exer-
else of those rights with which the laws have
invested you.
Il will conclude with the.remark: This is.
q question for you to decidedor yourself; no
man has any right to interfere. 1t seems to
be proper for women to sit upon grand
juries, which will give them the best possi-
BILE opportunity to aid in suppressing dens
of infamy which curse the country. l shall
be glad of your assistance in the accomplish
ment of this object. l do not make these
remarks from any distrust of gentlemen; on
the contrary, am exceedingly pleased and
gratifed with the indication of intelligence,
love of law and good order and gentlemanly
department which see manifested. l will
now listen to any reason which any jurors
make for being excused

rendered a vote of thanks at the last session
of the Legislature for the dignifed, impair.
tial and courteous manner in which he pre-
sided over the deliberations of the House,
he has not less proven himself worthy of
compliment as member on the floor. He
is justly winning golden opinions from
friends and foes. Whether as presiding Of.
fee of the House or a member, whether a
government official, intrusted with impor.
tant and responsible duties, he has exhibited
a uniform character for honestly, truthful
ness and probity. Louisiana may we'll feel
proud of such men, and we know of none
who bear a more enviable reputation than
this gentleman.

The many friends of Mr.. Charles E. Inge4ls
will regret to learn that he has been re-
moved from the position of Deputy Col
lector, which he filed in manner highly
satisfactory to our mercantile community.
Mr.. Ingalls, removal was purely matter of
party preference, aud reflects in.no manner
upon his character, private or official. Our
merchants generally will testify to his
urbanity, capacity and desire to facilitate
business. Mr.. Ingalls, takes charge of the

The st, Louis RepuJlican SAYS:

A. good house witnessed the second pre-
sentation of the "Child Stealer," which was
given much more satisfactorily than before,
particularly in the minor parts. Miss

admire in the character itself, we must
cordially praise its splendid rendition.
