HOW TO MANAGE A JURY.
TVirginia Cbroniele,l

Presently the stiffness of the court
room was interrupted by the entrance
of a man, who came in with shutting,
uneasy step, and with his hat In his
hand. He halted and leaned against
the railing. Nobody took the slightest
notice of him, however. At last he took
courage and spoke
SIS the Judge in %
The clerk Immediately awoke his
honor.
"Well, what do you want2'
"I'm looking for q JOB, your Honor.
I've been looking for work over a
month"
'There's nothing for you here.''
II thought we occasionally gave Jury
men @ job. / don't read newspapers
any, and bein' q stranger In town /
haven't got any prejudice agin anybody.
A pard OF mine wrote down to me at
Reno, last week, and said that the jury
business up here was brisk an it would
you and a little hard up, I'll start in
| and serve for case or two for half price
an you kin see what kin do"
What are your main ifications9"
"My strong suit is maxim jury
agree. No juries ever get hung If 1 m
on 'em. I jest lay low till they take
the first ballot, then jine the majority
| and argue the rest into it. [ can dis
count any lawyer talking. can show
| 'em up points they never tumbled to
before. Sometimes have to use force,
but seldom. Once. down at Truckee,
in murder case, there were a couple Of
fellers standin' out agin hangin' and
after arguin' with 'em as smooth and
| gentlemanly as could for over quar-
ter of an hour. 1 went for 'em with
chairs. and by the time I'd busted half
q dozen pieces of furniture over 'em
they was glad to come In with q verdict
of Murder in the first degree, and the
Teller WAS hung not long afterward. In
these justice courts 1 can get on the
jury, and IL you just give me wink
as to how you want the case to 60 I'll
guarantee to fetch in the verdict you
want, or not take q cent"
The man was told to drop around
again in day or so and they would try
and make vacancy for him. In order
to do it, however, some regular juryman
will probably have to be discharged.
