A lily grew down by the garden walk,
A oTeam-whitc lily, with heart afiame.

With cIinging teudrils and blossoms sweet

A Partisan shOp-keaper on the Rue
Rlyoli was in the habit of attracting
attention to his wares by q brilliant
Display of gas. Finding the bills from
the company heavier than suited the
profits Of his business, lie made an az
Ianuement to diminish the quantity OF
gas used. One day, being pressed for
money, he roughly pulled down the
spare pipes and sold the lead for thirty
dollars. Shortly after terrible smell
of gas prevailed the house. a gasman
was sent for, and III his presence a SER
want, though warned CT the danger,
vent about with a lighted candle, try
ing to test The spot from which there
was an escape. A formidable eXplo-
sion took place, and all the glass III the
house WAS shattered to pieces. Three
men were knocked down, but the SER
want alone WAS seriously injured, one
eve being put out and an arm badly
fractured. The gasman was prose-
cuted, it being alleged that as an eX-
pert he should have taken the lead in
so dangerous an operation, but he was
acquitted. The shop-keeper was sent
to prison for week and fined twenty
dollars

OUR JURIES.

The careful reader viii perhaps have
noticed in the columns of the MoRNISC
APPEAL al occasional mention of the Cherry
Greek stage robbery case. If not, the fault
is the readers for it has been sort of If item
with US. The case is now on its second trial
the jury on the first having failed of a yer
dict by eleven to one, that IS, eleven for con
viction and one for acq1i;ttal We are not
going to review the testimony, or to make any
comment on the case, mother of which we
have any right to Dc At this time, as the mat
ter is in the hands Of Judge Hillyer, = jury
of twelve and three good lawyers The ways
of jury are mysterious and past finding out,
and We have nothing in the pool-box on the
result Of this one. But we have been asking
ourself, within the past few days, whether or
not there il MT good deal of nonsense in the
treatment of jurors. Are we not drawing too
liberally from the practices of a musty past
from period when the juror was submitted
toia treatment almost as rigorous as the being
he WAS trying? 1t must not be inferred that
this applies to the jury now trying Bell, vii
son or Donnoly, for these jurors have the
best of sleeping accommodations, as good fare
as the Ormsby affords, which is good enough
''to lay before King, and every reasonable
comfort is afforded them. But they are in
constant charge of the e. s. Marshal, or one
of his deputies, and they glide about as noise
lessly as ghostly things. The object of this,
we presume,is to prevent the juror from being
mentally tempered with; to have him in an
unbiased frame of mind when the case is
finally submitted to him. Perhaps this is
proper enough, but does it not show "a plen-
tiful lack of confidence" in the sense and in
tegrity of the juror? If he is not to be trusted
among his fellow men, to go aud come
when and where he pleases, failing not to be
on hand daring court hours, is it not by i'm
plication at least, mild way of letting him
know that honest and conscientious though he
be, he will bear watchingl 1t may be sug-
gested that this is far-fotched, but we do not
believe it. In an unguarded moment we
asked one of the jurors, the other day, how
many witnesses had been examined during |
the day, and the marrow chilling look he gave |
us haunts us now like the memory of the |
creatures of late and injudiciOus mince pie.
We hope no skinned parties will wrongly
construe what we have written on this sub
jeot, for it is only meant in general way, ap-
plying to jurors the world over. The jury
system Is full of absurdities, but it will pro-
badly be long time before they are re-
moved

The phonograph, telephone and zero phone
are by no means the only grand inventions of
the past two years. The electric light, which
is just now the sensation of Paris, is thus
described by. a correspondent in that city:
The intense white glow from the electric
burners directly in front of the steps leading
up to the Grand Operas entrance, and scat
tered at inrervals across the grand boulevard
to the corner of the new avenue leading to
the Comedie Franchise, made the space for
hundreds of yaids round light as day. One
of the eletric candles seems to give as much
light as a hundred gas jets. Gas looks yel-
low, muddy and petty beside this grand fire,
which defes darkness. For a city lighted by
the new process all the terrors of midnight
would vanish. Burglars would find their oc-
cupation gone. The assassin would have to
sell his stiletto. Vice of all kinds would
either have to stink away, disgusted at the
small rewards which it would obtain when it
could no longer walk in darkness
