THE jury system in vogue in many of
the states is one Of the relics of medieval
barbQrism which might be readily abol
ished The difficulty of finding a jury
for the doodle cases in New York is a
ease in point More than 1870 talesmen
have been examined in the, Cleary trial
and not a single juryman obtained. Al
most all intelligent men have read the ac-
counts of the former trials and they with
the densely ignorant have been excused
by consent So that il seems almost i'm
possible to find twelve men who can be
agreed upon for the important case. II
the laws were changed somewhat so that
jnrymen might be more easily found JUS
tiee would be more prevalent and the
cost Of litigation would be decreased.
District Attorney Fellows OF New York
suggests that the metropolitan papers
would do the pablo great service by
not printing the evidence in trials as inn
portant as the doodle" cases. 1t &C
quaints the public with facts on which
they can form opinions, and thus delays
or prevents the obtaining Of a jury in
case Of retrial, or of another trial in
volving the same evidence The press OF
New York, however, is not likely to fol
low Colonel Fellows suggestion.

THE term Of State Auditor Boyce has
expired by limitation and the office Of
state auditor is vacant BY the terms Of
the constitution the auditor is elected for
two years beginning the second Tuesday
in January and ending the second Tues
day IN January two years thereafter
Thus the term Of State Auditor Boyce ex-
pired on the f1th Of this month. The
provision in regard to the state treasurer
is different and under it Treas
urer Herbert will hold his Office
until his successor shall have been ap-
pointed The situation at present is
peculiar. The Republicans have ma
ioriiy ia the House Of Representatives
and the Democrats have a majority in the
Senate. AS tbs two houses cannot agree
upon candidates for these Offices there is
adeadlock which may continue till the
Legislature adjourns. In that event it
is almost certain that Governor Biggs
will reappoint the Messrs. Boyce and
Herbert, for it is the unwritten law Of
Delaware that the incumbents Of those
Offices shall have two terms.

sinrular stomacbs

Nature presents a curious variety in
stomachs. A plant performs both the func-
ton Of digesting and that Of breathing with
its leaves. Some plants, like the Venus hy
trap Of the Carolinas, makes a veritable
stomach out of its leaves--catches flies and
other insects, and then digests them. In some
lower orders OF the animal kingdom found in
the southern seas one organ performs the
duty Of stomach, lungs and heart. Some still
more lowly creatures possess no organs which
may DO called a stomach, and yet are capable
Of producing q stomach on the spot when
ever one is needed. Perhaps, instead Of say
ing that this singular creature, the ameba,
is furnished with no stomach, we should give
it credit for being all stomach. Certainly, to
eat, digest and exist seems TO be its sole pur-
nose in life.-Good Health.
Don't commit suicidel if you have dys-
pepsia with headache, heartburn, dis
tress in the stomach no appetite, and are
all worn out-but take Hoods Sarsapa-
rilla and be cured. Il creates an appetite,
and gently regulates the digestion. Sold

man for a. that" Mr.. Robertson gave some
personal "reminiscences of the place where
he was born, and had seen only three
people there that he knew, one of whom
was the master to whom he was bound and
ran away from, and the other the first man
he went to work for. One of these, who was
at one time a wealthy man and Lord Provost
of Glasgow, had now the grass growing over
the roots OF his works, and told Mr..
Robertson that Belgium bottle blowers
had sent in their work cheaper
than Scotch glass men could work
and this was the cause of the failure of his
place. "This," he said, "shows the neces-
sity of such organizations as exist here to-
night. They are organizing them now in
England under the name of Fair Trade
Clubs in opposition to Free Trade Clubs.
The old country is tired of seeing women
hitched in with dog to haul milk wagons
and taking mules place in pulling canal

Estimate of the Cronin Prosecutor.
Mr.. J. A. Gerry, Chicago attorney who
was at one of the hotels yesterday, was
speaking about the Cronin case, and had
this to say of Judge j. M. Longenecker, the
States Attorney Of Cook county:
"I have read the full text of his address to
the Jury. 1t is q mastery statement. A
synopsis gives no idea of its unity or
strength. I have known Judge Long
enecker for several years. He is from
Southern Illinois, and like many
of the men from that region!
called Egypt he is swarthy of
face, and has hair as black and straight as
that of an Indian. He is short, stocky
man, with broad shoulders, a heavy head
luxuriant with hair, and face denoting
great energy and persistence. He is very
hard worker, and will dig and pound the
truth out Of the Cronin conspiracy if any
man can. He was assistant to Julius s.
Grinnell, who convicted the anarchists, and
possesses the earnest, unyielding energy OF
his predecessor. While he is not man of
1owery speech, he is ready talker,a a shrewd
arguer and often impassioned and fiery in
his utterance. The people of Chicago have
great confidence in his ability and stern in
tegrity,

RUTAN In 1T TO WIN.

The Senator Declares His Candidacy for
Reelection - Positive That Senator
Quay Will Support Him.
Senator +. S. Rutan and his wife arrived
home yesterday morning from somewhat
protracted tour in Europe. Both are en-
joying excellent health. The Senator said
that he felt better than he had at any time
since the war. He looks sturdy and we'll.
During the afternoon and evening he was
visited at his home on Sheffield avenue, in
Allegheny, BY many friends, not few of
whom are prominently identified with poll
tics in the Forty-second Senatorial District.
Senator Rutan was visited last evening
by reporter for The DISPATCH He said
that he did not desire to discuss the politi-
cal situation until after the election OF No
vember 5. He had not been at home long
enough to speak upon the Gubernatorial or
other contests of next year. About himself
he had this to say:
81 am candidate for reelection to the
State Senate. and am going to win. have
not the slightest doubt of it. Two United
States Senators are to be elected by the
next Legislature, and still have some in
terest in politics. Some of Mr.. Speer' s
friends have circulated the story that was
to receive Federal office, and thus be re-
moved from the contest. While it may be
true that 1 could have such a position, and
one which would pay better than the Sena-
torship, yet prefer the latter, which is a
more active and interesting Office"
"What are the relations between your
self and Senator Quay?" the reporter
asked. The Senator replied: "Mr. Quay
will be for me. as matter of course. l
have not seen him since 1 came home, nor
have heard from him recently, but know
that he is for me without seeing him. I
have been his friend for 80 years. have
always supported him. 1 carried this dis
trict for him for the Senate in 1885, The
fact that carried the Allegheny district,
where opposition to him was expected,
really settled his Senatorial fight"
Senator Rutan spoke kindly of the other
candidates for the State, Senate in his dis
trict, Messrs. Neeb, Speer and HARRISON.
The latter had formerly been warm sup
porter of Mr.. Rutan, but two of his brothers
had been defeated by the Senator for various
offices. Mr.. Rutan said further: "Mr.
Magee is good friend of mine. We were
together on our journey home. 1 never let
political affairs interfere with my friend
ships, however"

WHERE is MR.. HoRSEg

His Deserted Wife From Erie After Him
With a Warrant-she Charges Him
With Stealing Her Jewelry.
A letter was received by Inspector Nc
Aleese last week from Erie signed by lady
named Ida NJ. Arbuckle. The writer
wanted to know if a man named h. G. Horne
was in the insurance business at No. "a Fifth
avenue. After investigating the Inspector
answered the letter, stating that H. C.
Horne, representing the Accident Life In
surance Company, Of New England, was
located at the number mentioned.
On Friday morning last two well. dressed
and rather fne-looking ladies drove to the
Central station in carriage, and on finding
Inspector McAleese introduced themselves
by handing him the letter written to them
at Erie. They were mother and daughter.
After short conversation the younger
woman handed the Inspector a warrant
issued by magistrate of Erie, and calling
for the arrest of 81. G. Horne for robbery
and desertion. In explanation of this the
younger woman stated that about two weeks
ago she was married to Il. c. Horne
after a brief courtship, they having
only been acquainted for about ten days.
The marriage ceremony was performed by
an Erie Alderman. Horne only lived with
his new wife two days when suddenly he
skipped out, taking with him his wife's
gold watch and chain, earrings, breastpin
and diamonds to the value OF $3.50, since
which time nothing had been heard of him.
The women were sent to the Central Hotel
and detective was detailed on the case.
He visited the Office at Ga Fifth avenue and
found boy in charge, who stated that be
had not seen or heard OF his employer, Mr..
Horne, for six weeks. At No. Eighth
street, where Horne lived, he had not
been seen for six weeks, and they thought
he had gone to Canada.
This was reported TO the women and they
left for home ON Friday night.
Mrs. Horne, or Miss Arbuckle, the de-
serted wife, is well-known music teacher
of Erie, and is also well known there for her
dramatic talent, she being leading amateur
actress of that city.
