FORTS HINsELF WHILE THE WIFE
sITs ON A JURY.
An outraged husband at Cheyenne. WToming
Territory, where female suffrage and the politi-
cal and socisl nppurtensEces thereto appertaiu-
ing arc recognized, denounces the female Jury
business though the Cheyenne Lcgier, and in
justification oters pertinent rap from his DO
nestle history. His wife wss summoned and
impannelet ss juror in an important case
When night csme-the case not being conclul-
ed, the husband sop.iel TO the court 10 have his
wife sent home, AS there were several small
children there requiring her sttention-the
smallest, in fact, being in a starving condition.
owing to the fact that it had not been habituatei
to the use Of the bottle But the husbands re-
quest was denied. The Judge saii that tie iuIy
could not be separated. The husband then re-
quesiei permission TO send the infant 10 the
mother. This Was also refused, on the ground
that the law does not permit a thirteenth person
in jury room, and there is 10 statute to show
that an infant in arms is not " person within
thesnient and meaning Of the isE. TIE des-
perste husband then attempted to induce the
court TO send all the Jurors to his house for the
night but the effort was 2 failure, and the hus-
band WAS informed thatqusrters had been provi-
TO speak to her for moment be would have TO
take the place Of the cook. The husband went
home. How be got through the night is not
told but when he learned the next day that the
trial was likely to last week, he strsightssy
proceeded to employ the best locking house
keeper and cook in the country. At last &C
counts his wife was still on the jury, but be was
becoming resigned to the sitlation-in fact, it
may be said that be was quite happy. The
g brute" concludes his communication to the
Leader as follows:
al don't know how the ladies felt, but was
perfectly satisfied with not only the law Of equal
rights, hut lite practical workings, as laid down
to me. | most respectfully and cordially invite
