! fact; and that also the plaintiff had beer
cognizant of the disqualifcations at the
/ time the juror was accepted and had moi
offered word of explanation or protest
In view of these facts am of the opinion
that the challenge ought to be sustained
and the Court so orders.
Counsel for plaintiff asked that another
juror be obtained to fill the vacancy, and
that the case be proceeded with. To this
the Court objected stating that as next
Monday was the opening of the April
term it would be impossible to conclude
the case the present term. 1t will there.
fore be continued, said the Judge.
An exception was taken to the Courts
Judgment in sustaining the challenge,
and the attorneys on both sides as well
as the interested parties in the suit man
ifested in their looks the satisfaction and
the disappointment respectively that
they felt
Mr.. Morris, whose chances for gaining
his suit had been thought to be very ex-
cellent, now wore an expression of
dependency There were said to be
seven or light men on the jury who were
not only acquaintance of the plaintiff
but who were known to be prejudiced in
His favor and the prospects for an open
venire jury for the next term carries
much less hope for him.
The suit involves between $4,000 and
$4,000, including interest, and those
who are familiar with the premises have
been heard to express their opinion,
after seeing the character of the Jury,
that Mr. Morris would get every dollar of
it.
At the conclusion of the Judges opin-
ion the jury was brought into court
and the Judge informed Mr.. Gronway
Parry, the juror who had caused the
trouble, that he was excused
from the case owing to the
acts as above given. Mr.. Parry offered
he explanation that he had once, during
he examination, thought to mention the
act of his relationship to Mr.. Morris but
he attorneys had not asked any question
involving such a right, so he had con-
.luded it did not matter.
This is the second annoyance which |
his interesting case has stranded upon
nd it begins TO look as though the ex-
lenses would approximate close to the
mount sued for before final Judgment
an be reached.

TWO MORE OF THEM.
Reagen and Casey the Carter Bur.
glars Run In by the Officers
Saturday Night.

The city police entertained some very
serious suspicious, Saturday evening.
that the several parties arrested for COM
plicity in the Carter burglary were not
the actual guilty ones, and to confirm
this, officers Adam Paul, Hilton and
Bateman planned little scheme for the
capture of the worthless who had secreted
the plumber in the D. & R. G. Hotel.
Mr.. Paul arranged with the proprietor of
the house for the occupancy of the room
in which the stolen goods had been
stored, and he at once repaired the lock
which had been broken in forcing the
door open. This was done in order that
the thieves who still retained key to
the apartment might find nothing
to arouse suspicion should they return.
Late in the evening Mr.. Paul went to
bed in the same couch which had been
used as a receptacle for the plumber, and
officers Hilton and Bateman took up
position in the room opposite. About
2 80 o'clock rafting sound reused the
officers as the parties inserted the key
and the next moment they entered in
full view of the bed and its apparently
slumbering occupant. Mr.. Paul waited
until they had reached the opposite side
Of the room from the door, when he
.aised up in bed and said: "What the
1evil are you doing in my room?" This
threw the men off the scent
Is had been desired, and before they
Gould find time to take in the situation
he placed himself against the door
md covered the burglars with his gun.
)ne OF them was SO close to him that the
'fhcer grasped his arm and as he did so
policemen Hilton and Bateman rushed in
nd took hold of the other one. Mr..
tagney, the proprietor, also arrived at
his juncture and he and Mr.. Paul re-
nained with the prisoners while the
ther officers went in search of the third |
arty, who was on the former occasion
cen at the hotel. The search was re-
nltless and the two captured criminals
ere taken to- the City Hall and safely
'dged in Jail.
AT 10 o'clock this morning James Rea-
an and Mat Casey, these two worthless,

AT 5 O'Clock yesterday morning officer
Robinson reported at the Police Station

mAmlE,s BIRTHDAY.

May each succeeding day like this
Bring Mamie dear its store of bliss;
May all thy days be bright and gay,
But best of all, thy natal day.
May friends, true friends, delight to gree
Thy gentle face, in accents sweet;
Then gather oft, to while away
Glad hours upon thy natal day.
May pansy flowers and roses blow,
Along life's path may violets grow,
And garlands that bestrew thy way
Seem brighter on thy natal day.
o, may no clouds obscure thy sky,
Or shadows on thy pathway lie,
But glancing at life's last faint ray,
Feel heaven has blest thy natal day.

Locust Suppers.

A locust supper was to have been held
recently by four gentlemen, one of whom
is u physician, and q number of their
friends were invited to join the party, but
declined, saying they were not hungry
enough to feast on bugs. The intended
supper was started by number of young
men bantering each other about the deli
cious and vile things they had eaten. Tho
menu suggested worried some of the GUEST
when they reflected upon what they had
promised to eat, and some of them backed
out. TO supply the supper fifty good,
large, healthy locusts were procured for
the physician, but they did not know
how to cook them. 1t was at first in

sharp appetites that had been longing
for the food were not satisfied that boiling
was the best way to cook them, and it was
agreed to put the supper off until the
doctor could write over to Professor Riley
and get his recipe. The supper has not
been abandoned. 1t is simply postponed.

THE wonderful stories told of grain

THE wonderful stories told of grain
which had been made to grow after hav-
ing lain dormant for thousands of years
in the hands of mummies, do not seem
to have any foundation in fact. Mr.. II.
X. Parks states in the Journal Of Science
that he has investigated all the cases he
can find, and shows that there is not q
single authenticated instance of corn
found in n mummy having been grown.
Some of the seeds found in mummies
have terminated, but as they produced
plants-oatS, for instance-not known to
the Arabs of 5000 years ago, it seems
evident that they were systematically
put in the hands of the mummics by the
avaricious Arab of modern days.
YOU'VE men In Nashville, Tenn, used
to have a strange idea of fun. About
20 years ago during II cold spell they
organized a society with fun as it's
avowed object. The fun consisted in
raising money and distributing it among
the poor people of the city and county.
In the course of one winter they raised
and gave away SIT, 600. The young
men who were engaged in this frolic are
now grayheaded, but they maintain that
they lever in their lives enjoyed them
selves as much as they did during that
memorable winter. A few such practi-
cal jokers would be a blessing to every
town in the United States.
