The Ben Thompson Case.

The Ben Thompson case came up this morn
ing for trial The venire OF sixty jurors was
called and all except twelve responded. Those
failing to respond were fined SIS. Out OF the
forty eight jurymen only two were found con-
petent; the Others, with the exception of Louis
because Of hay ing formed an opinion that
would influence their verdict. The afiidavits
for a change OF venue were evidently well
founded. The Judge then ordered Special
VCnire Of l'N jurymen and attachments for the
missing twelve on the regular Venire The
witnesses were dismissed until Saturday morn
lug and the court adjourned until o'clock to-
morrow morning.
Mrs. Thompson and her .bright-eyed little
was surrounded by number of friends, who
stepped forward on the adjournment OF the
court and shook hands.
Much of the excitement attending the killing
of Harris has died out: the community has felt
no loss, however much his slayer may be held
in aversion by large number of citizens. The
gambling evil, which WIS the cause of the
tragedy, has become SO great a curse 10 our
community that the people are ready to rise up
rs one man and demand its eradication. The
Ben ThompsOn-Harris tragedy originated over
a gambling Tablet eliminated i'm bar-rOoIn
The better sentiment of the community, while

and find excuse in their Indifference as TO the
fate of the survivor. Ben Thompson has

FOR its foundation i'll sentiment of jusIifiCH-
ton for the deed because the man killed was an

moral and municipal laws of the community

Tie Street Car Accident death of the
boy, George Little.

The sad accident of the street car running
over Il boy named George Little, mentioned in
the LIGHT yesterday. resulted in the death OF
the lutte fellow about 1870 O'Clock yesterday
evening. This morning Justice Adam held an
inquest and the jury returned Il verdict in
accordance with the facts as sworn to by wit
nesSeS of the occurrence and the testimony of
the doctor in attendance.
DR.. CIpples testified that the arm was broken
IN such u way as 10 neceSSitatc aInputatiOn,
which was performed at p. M; poStmOrtem
developed internal injuries which caused death
Mr., Abernuthy testified to seeing the boy run
to the car and then fall in TN attempt to get ON
and was run over.
that he had halted bis car near the corner of
Alamo and Commerce streets, To allow a wagon
to pass, aud then, his car moving on
slowly, he entered the car to collect "a
fare, when lie heard the cry of the boy
run owe and stopped the car TO see about il ,

and useful to his mother, being small in stature
he looked younger than he really was The fact
is, he was walking along side the car before

and was not seen by the driver AT all, The state

A MOnstor Petition

IL Is suggested that d monster petition be got
ten up TO be signed by the men and women of
our city, calling upon the Mayor and Council
and prostitution. Since the people have been
unable to express their opinion at the ballot
box in opposition to the course of the admins
tration upon this matter, let them do so by
petition. Mayor French is really Indifferent
he cares nothing for the gamblers further than
the assistance they might he to him in an cleo
ton, and would not stand in the way of a
strongly expressed public opinion, but wsuld
turn his political polls over TO the eIecutioner
Tomorrow, rather than lace public sentiment
fOrcibly expressed. And then again, "his
honor must recognize the lesson of the late
election, that his success is due To an after
thought ON the part OF men opposed to him,
who preferred to endure present ills rather
than trust to uncertainties they knew not Of
And recognizing this lesson, he might be
aroused from his lethargy to become the
champion of good government, as his apathy
has been conspicuous in producing bad cover
ment.
The gambler, the professional we mean, is
always amenable to public sentiment; he re-
cOgnizes the force at demand coming from
the people; the curse OF the Jack Harris rule
remains because II was planted in political in
tFigue Harris was democratic boss" and
while seeking no political preferment for him
self, he dictated the choice of his party; his
death seemed the signal for an end of the poll
tica partnership that had run our city and
county for years, but 10 takes time and force Ia
put and end To such things. Public sentiment
finds expression through the press, but il some
times takes II thunder clap To starte officials,
accustomed TO hold public morals, aus Il matter
of Indifference and convenience. A petition
SUCH as we suggest might act as a uuiCkening
spirit upon the new administration,
