DALLAS, Feb. To- Editor HERALD. l.
There are several gross typographical
errors in my article on negro jurors.
You make mo speak fthe "eternal va

ror from n y desired service.
-, Now, replying briefly, for have no
ume for extended diSquisitiOns, to your
EDITORIAL on my communication, have
this to say! Tits unqutsliunably the right
OF The negro, under the federal cousti-
tuition, under our state constitution and
our statute law, to sit upon juries, and
u IL broad and unsupported assertion
Tor you 10 declare That the attempted
exercise of such u right is sentimental
anu impracticable nonsense. When you
ueny thus light you simply invite vio-
latiOn OF organic and statute law, aud
such an invitation extended through the
columns OF the HERALD is, to say the
least OF II, OF questionable propriety.
10 offer no argument save sophlstical
assertion, aud To rest your case simply
upon the declaration that my statement
OF the legal status vi the negro IL pecu
liar, sentimental and utterly impraou

ton anu shuflliDg away from the issue.
You lug into your Ariiclo, also, an un-

COSTA RrcAN PRESENCE OF MIND.
Boston Herald.

No Costa Rican lady or gentleman is
ever embarrassed They always know
how to do and say the proper thing, and
while their courtesy and good manners
are said to be only skin deep, they are the
most charming of companions, the most
generous of hosts, and the most polite of
gentlemen. No laborer ever passes a lady
in the street without lifting his hat, and
he always touches that always dirty and
generally dilapidated portion of his APP
parel when gentleman passes him. If "a
lady approaches group of men digging
cellar, repairing the street, or whatnot,
even though some of them may be half
naked, they always salute her respectful
ly, and in the rural districts no one ever
meets you without saying May God
prosper the object of your journey, or
May heaven smile upon your Grand,
or something in Spanish like that. Inc
same man will swindle you out OF your
eve teeth if he gets chance, and II you
ask him how far it is to the next place he
will undoubtedly tell you falsehood.
He doesn't care copper whether you
ever reach the end of your journey. and
has no more regard for your welfare than
the flea in the grass. but he recognizes a
beautiful custom and says, God be good
to you, as if he meant it for a blessing.
And this politeness permeates all classes
and castles. If you enter store with a
lady every man there will salute you and
remove his hat out of respect to her. On
the streets the people will stand aside to
let you pass, and it is necessary to do so,
for the sidewalks are often less than two
feet wide. If you go into hotel office, 8
barber shop, restaurant or any other pub
lie place everybody present will salute
You with ''Buenos Deos," or some Other
friendly welcome. While there is not {
particle of sincerity about all this; while
the object and end of life in the Spanish
code of ethics is to get along with as lit
tie work and as much swindling as posi-
BILE, they are certainly TO be praised fol
cheating you in the most polite ant
agreeable manner possible. A Spanish
highwayman does not swear at you ant
command you to give him your money O
your life; he makes profound bow
places his hand upon his heart assure
you that he is devoutly grateful that yol
are looking so well, and regrets that he i
compelled by pressing necessities to re
quest that you will loan him whateve
valuables you have upon your person
Then thanking you for your promptnes
and courtesy in sparng him the painful
duty of shooting you through the head
he will mount his horse and ride off wit
prayer that the Almighty will protet
you from the perils of your journey.

menced his address to the jury. He con-
tended that the witnesses who had sworn to
having seen Cunningham at Cover
Street station before and after the explosion
were mistaken, and declared that his client
was the victim of mistaken identity, He
closed by asserting that the crown had
utterly failed to connect Cunningham in any
way with the explosions that had occurred
up to the time of his arrest. or with any con-
spiracy whatever.
Sir Henry James, the attorney general,
followed in a telling address He reviewed
the evidence, and insisted that the testimony
clearly proved that the prisoners were
guilty of conspiring against life and prop
erty. "There could be no doubt" he said,
"of their implication in some of the recent
explosions" At the conclusion of the at
torney generals address the case was ad-
journed until Monday, when the judge will
