a Conservative Judge Tests a Negro
yUry.
From the Chatham Tribune

From the Chatham Tribune.
The people OF this county had an oppor-
tunity last Monday 10 witness novel sight
IN court. Judge Trcdway had previously
directed the sheriff to summon colorcd
q,cn,fe for the trial of lshmacl lipford
froloredl, charged with the murder Of his
s;cnson. an infant child Of his wife by n
former husband. CT C, ursc this new sight
attracted considerable crowd of both
colors to witness the result Of the expert
mcnt. The sheriff. as directed. summoned
the most Notwithstanding negroes in the
county. and by consent Of counsel the first
twelve were sworn to try the case. It was
somewhat remarkable that not one of the
Jury had ever heard of the case before.
twithstauding the killing WAS done last
December and some Of The jury lived
within ten miles Of the place at which
It was committed. The evidence was
brief but very strong; the case was
fully argued. and the Jury We're not absent
after retiring longer than fifteen minutes.
II was a case. from the evidence, which adj
mitted Of but one issue--H guilty ut all, the
prisoner was necessarily guilty Of murder
in the first degree. The jury, however.
rendered verdict Of murder in the second
degree, ard ascertained the term OF impri-
son,nent in the penitentiarv at five years.
The prisoner was perfectly rejoiced and
evidently dumbfoundcd at the verdict. A
white jury of intelligence ut the last term
Of the court had found the prisoner guilty
OF murder in the first degree, but new
trial was granted for reasons satisfactory to
The court. In this instance we think the
Judge did right in testing the practicability
Of such jury. 1t was an emtnently pro-
per case but we think it sutiices to prove
that this class Of our people are utterly in
competent. They lack intelligence and dis
elimination, and cannot, of course, weigh
evidence. An accused party Of either color
would be in danger i'll the hands of an in
competent jury.

Dreadful Deaths.

Under this appropriate heading the
Lyons Mirror records the terrible
fate of the Bebee family formerly of
that place. in the Peshtigo Wis. fire.
The members of the family who lost
their lives consisted of husband and
wife and three children, the latter
aged nine and two years and one q
babe. A boy of six years was saved
by a German carrying him into the
water. A letter giving the details
says: "Mr. Bebee's remains, with
little Celia in his arms were found
only thirty feet from the water
Mrs. B., with her infant in her en-
brace, was found farther off, while
little Naomi, whom many of the
Lyons children will remember as
the bright little girl who sang so
sweetly, and was a favorite with all
who KIN sw her, met with q fate more
Eeart-rendiEg if possible than befell
the rest of the family. She was rum
ming with all her strength to reach
the river, when she was overtaken
by a crazed aud perishiug COW, and
tossed high in the air. She fell to
rise no more on this earth. The
poor beast ran but two or three rods
when she, too. persisted from the in
tense heat,u

More Awful Than the Judgment.

A celebrated preacher of the seven
teenth century, In a sermon to q
crowded audience, described the ter
rors of the last Judgment with such
eloquence, pathos and furce of action
that some of his audience not only
burst into tears, but sent forth pierre
ing cries, as ii the Judge himself had
been present, and was about to pass
upon them their final sentence. In
the height of this excitement, the
preacher called upon them to dry
their tears and cease tLeir cries, as
he was about to add something still
more awful and astonishing than
anything he had yet brought before
them. Silence being obtained, he,
with an agitated cOuntenance and
solemn voice, addressed them thus.
sin one quarter Of IN hour from this
time the emotions which you have
Just now exhibited will lie stifled /;
the remembrance of the fearful
truths which excited them will van-
ish; you will return to your carnal
occupations, or sinful pleasures with
your usual avidity, and you will
treat all that you have heard as a
tale that is told,'h

The beginning OF Chicago.

A little less than forty years ago a
party of emigrants landed their sloop
near the head of Lake Michigan
They hsd been six weeks making
their way round the lakes from
Cleveland; they were in search of q
home on the wild prairies of Illinois.
The country about their landing was
low and swampy, and all save one,
determined to push on to the interi-
or. He determined that lie had
travelled far enough from civilization
and refused to 60 farther. The rest
demonstrated. He was stubborn
They tried to reason. They coaxed,
they threatened, but all to no avail.
A council was held, and the fractions
II permitted to stay. His name
was Clark. He went two miles from
the sloop, and found a dry knoll on
which he built a rude shelter for his
wife aud two boys. In going to and
ron the landing u trail or path was
made, il was then known AS Clark's
Trail. A few nights ago O fire ragged
along Clark's Trail-now Clark St.,
and burned hundreds of the finest
buildings In America. ...a es

my DEAR Your great

sent me a letter from Mr.. Calder,
with one from himself, and the SIG
you give to help Chicago through
this hard pinch. l write this TO
thank you for what you ave done
right out of my heart to tell you
that I think your subscription Ia one
of the grandest that was ever made
for anything, because you must have
so very little to apare; and whenever
you get into a tight place this winter,
I want you to feel that you have
helped some poor fellow out OF a
tighter.
Now / will tell you what l mean
to do with this money. L mean to
keep it all by itself, and whenever,
as long as il lasts, / Z any boy or
girl | think needs a dollar. L will
take one of yours to give them. L
hope | shall make no mistakes, and
give it to the right sort-just to those
who need it, and not to those who
are shamming. / should hate to be
taken in, but if am | want you
all TO try and remember If YOU have
ever taken any fellow in, and il you
have you must consider my mistake
your punishment, and never do IL
again.
"And so, boys, God bless you for
your kind hearts and the way you
put your hands down deep into your
pockets. L am, always yours,

THE HEAT OF THE HUMAN BODY.
The amount of ice necessary to
cool a gallon of water will cool l6
cubic yards of air of the same tenn
perature. A nan of $50 pounds
weight, with his body at 104 degrees,
contains al much heat as a space six
yards long. wide and high of the
same temperature. This explains
the reason why q room filled with
people rises its temperature SO rapid
ly from the radiation of heat. To
cool this amount Of air to GA degrees,
the temperate heat, a reduction of AZ
degrees Is required, and the melting
OF 3 pounds of ice would be amply
sufficient to cool the air, as thai
would abstract as much or more heal
than the body thrsws off.
