WHAT A Boy DID FOR HIS DADDY -
Among the sufferers by the MarysviIie
flood was a clerical gentleman who has a
son in this city following the profession
Of "a Bohemian, and connected with "a
financial paper. When this dutiful Off
spring received u report of the flood he
telegraphed for information regarding
the condition of his venerated father
He replied in a note written on the lin
ing of his hat, having temporarily Ioeat-
ed his stndy on the roof of his domieile,
where he was hanging on the ragged
edge of despair, lashed to the chimney.
Without considering for a moment the
enormous sacrifice, the young journalist
Immediately threw ON the market five
shares of Pill. Sheridan mining stock,
which he had purchased at the time of
greatest imitation, and the proceeds he
invested with characteristic dexterity
in dice game and doubled the amount
The full sum was promptly transmitted
to the afflicted sire by the next mail
Such instances of filial affection and
fidelity are truly affecting. San Fran

Cir Daily Arens,
Statement by John q. Thompson,


COLUMBUS. Oct H--John G. Thomp-
son, chairman Of the Democratic state
executive committee, requests the publica-
ton Of the following statement:
The Republican daily press of this state,
on Friday morning last, published dis
patch signed j. NJ. Thompson" which
purported to be in answer to one claimed
to have been sent from +. S. Dodd, of
Toledo to John @. Thompson, This dis
patch was furnished to the press by the
Republican executive committee and there
fore they are responsible for its puhlica-
ton. | unhesitatingly say and charge that
the Republican committee is aware OF the
truth thereof that | never sent such dis
patch; that | am not aware that such dis
patch was sent by anyone else, and if it
was that never saw it or had anything to
do with forwarding it. The Republican
committee has been guilty of a crime which
the laws OF this state declare to be felony
Ii such dispatch was never sent, then
they have perpetrated forgery. If it was
sent there is but one way in which it could
get into thur possession, by theft. It was
either stolen by them or they were acces
sorry to the theft before or after it was
committed. They can take either horn of
the dilemma. Ii it is forgery to write u
name and they have written it or caused it
to be written then they have been guilty
of forgery. If it is theft to steal tele
gram or to be accessory to ,he stealing
of telegram or to use telegram know
ing the same to be stolen, then they have
been guilty Of theft. leave the character
Of the crime to be deter mined by the com-
mittee.
AS to the Wood countY frauds, the Re
publican committee is no doubt satisfied
with them, as the county has given au in
creased Republican majority.

TIE New Jury Bill Declared UneOn,
sfftutfOnaI

Samuel NJ. Nicely was one Of the regular
jurors, appointed By the County Court Of
Maury county, for the May term, 1915, Of
the Circuit Court for that county. After
serving three DAYS the jurors were in
formed by the Circuit Judge that their
compensation as jurors could only be pro
vided for by taxing the same as cost against
the losing parties in pursuance Of the act
Of Feb. "A, 1875, WhereupOn Nicely de-
clined to serve longer, and for so refusing
the Circuit Judge imposed upon him fine
Of SO for contempt. From this judgment
lie appealed to the Supreme Court. The
case was decided yesterday, the court hold
ING that the act is in conflict with the re-
quirement Of the Constitution, that jurors
shall be free from bias and have no interest
in the cause being tried. Again, the
bill Of rights guarantees TO every
citizen the right Of trial by jury without
violation, and by the 7th amendment
Of the United States Constitution, it is de-
clared that the ri-ht Of trial by jury shall
be preserved. This manifestly means that
the right shall never be encountered with
conditions, which, in their practical opera
ton. may impair the free and full enjoy
ment Of the right. The act Of Feb. "A,
1873, leaves to the citizen no discretion;
he must enjoy the right, if at all, upon the
condition Of being made responsible for the
compensation Of the jury, which, in prac
tice, may, and probably would, entirely de-
| feat the enjoyment of the right.
The whole act is therefore declared null
and void.
