TIE Jury SYSTEM.

An exchange says: Under the
present jury system convictions in
capital cases are difficult, and disa-
greements 50 easy to procure that
Minnesots and Wisconsin are con-
sidering the question Of jury reform.
In Wisconsin agitation is directed
toward securing a change in the
method Of selecting juries. The
Milwaukee Sentinel in a recent ur-
gent appeal for a change says that
the american jury system, espe-
cially in cities Is an effete relic"
and that as "a consequence, in the
larger towns and cities trial by jury
~ coming to be regarded as farce.
In Wisconsin jurymen are selected
from each town by the supervisor
of the town, who considers II as
patronage and bestows IL where he
thinks IL will do HIM the most good.
In Minnesota a change is sought in
the traditional requirement as to the
u ulanimity Of the twelve in "A YER
dict. 1t IL proposed to provide that
the agreement of three-fourths
shall be sufficient to decide case.
This new rule IL to apply only TO
civil cases. Both California and
Louisiana some years ago made the
igrcement of nine out Of twelve

he French code only majority Is
pccessary for conviction.
The institution Of the grand
Jury Is regarded by most legal
minds and by not few common
sense people not lawyers, as a useless
branch of the Judiciary, IN no way

tion Of justice or 70 preserve the

than aid To- the transaction Of the
business of the criminal courts, and
that II should no longer be tolerated.

APUBLic BENEFAcroM

"Who is III. II. Warner, of Roches
Ger, N. Y, whose Safe Remedies, es
pecially Warmers Safe Cure, have al
tanned such success and celebrity al
home and abroad?"
The question is inspired as much by
affection as curiosity, since through
his instrumentality hundreds OF thou
sands, in both hemispheres, have
been restored to health and happi.
ness.
Hon. H. H. Warner, then, is q
leading and honored resident oi
Rochester, not only, but prominent
and influential citizen of the United
States. On several occasions chosen
by his party as a National delegate to
nominate u President of the Republic,
he has been q member of the Repub-
can State Committee and of its Exc
cutive Committee. He is a member
OF the American Institution for the
Advancement OF Science; President
OF the Rochester Chamber OF Com
merce q successful and upright busi-
ness man. He has given away for
tunes in charities. The celebrated
and costly Warner Observatory Of
Rochester was conceived, endowed,
and is maintained by him. His
munificent prizes for the discovery OF
comets has been at once the wonder
and delight of the scientific world.
The yellow fever scourage in the
South, the Ohio floods, the fire dis
asters of Rochester and other cities
awakened his profoundest sympathies
and in each instance his check for
from $500 to IS 900 swelled the several
relief funds. Where other wealthy
men give tens and hundreds, he gives
hundreds and thousands.
His charities are as ready and
magnificent as his enterprises and
public spirit are boundless.
The world has need Of more such
men.
An incident led him into the manu-
facture OF medicine. Seized some
twelve years ago with what the ablest
physicians termed falal kidney dis
ease, he was miraeulously restored TO
health by what is now known as
Warmers Safe Cure. At once he 10.

potent remedy, snd the consequence
Is that to-day he has immense labora-
tories and warehouses in the United
States, Canada, England. Germany,
Austria, Australia and Burmah. sales
Of his safe Remedies are enormous,
and their power over disease simply
marvellous. .H
The merit Of production is in ex-
set Keeping with the character OF its
producer. An honest and reliable
man himself, Mr.. Warner makes

aoandantly sttested by their phsno-
nsnal efficacy and popularity.

Fingersbowls A La Russo.
lIew York Letter to the San Francisco Call.
Fingerbowls la Russo are to be found
in some of the most cosmopolitan dining
rooms, and the struggle with the crystal
basin and floating mouth mug Is something
unfbrgetable The bowl, half filled with
clear water, is placed on the usual DOYLE
covered platter, and i'm it is u tiny glass at
sail, containing a couple of spoonfuls Of
peppermint or wintcrgreen favored water
with which to rinse the mouth. Now,
almost any pupil, pet or protcge of society
can have her finger tips, but the manipula-
ton of the mouthglass is a feat that only
the dexterous can accomplish. Either the
well fed guest is nice or nasty about II,
and il not nice there Is danger to the
delicate spectator of losing his dinner on
the spot. The only way to manipulate the
mouth bath is to "choose a laugh" and
take and expel the draught i'm an instant.
Like kissing shy girl, "the operation
must be done before a body knows it has
begun and If you get caught by even a
single pair of eyes swallow the glass
