A Judge Who Selects Jurvmcn

The law of Illinois provides that an
acceptable juryman shall be of sound
mind. good character, correct Judgment,
intelligent and able to read and write
the English language. 1t also declares
that the judge shall examine the Jurors
as to their qualifications. and decide on
the same.
The last part Of the stipulation has
usually been a dead letter in actual prac-
tice, however. The judge has left the
filling Of the quota of twelve good men
and true" to the rival attorneys in the
case. They have. as in the Cronin case,
sometimes spent weeks in a tooth and
nail struggle each to get on the Jury his
own men, and the one who was shrewd.
est and sharpest generally got the ad-
vantage.
Judge Horton, however. of the GRIM
inal court, Chicago. has made a depart.
ure. the result of which will be regarded
with interest. He declares that hereafter
he will use the right the law gives
him, and personally examine jurymen
and decide their qualifications. A Judge
must not be prejudiced towards either
side of case. Judge Horton believes
he will thus save much time and get
juries that will bring in more impartial
verdicts

where they can no longer carry out their
intentions. James Lick, who gave Cali.

School Of Mechanical Arts. He died in
1875. in October. The estate wen. into
the courts at once, almost as a matter {.
course when rich man leaves a larss
sum of money helpless and alone among
birds of prey. For thirteen years Mr..
Lick's executors have been trying "
carry out the provisions of his will, AND
all that time they have been INSTRUCTED
by litigation. The school is still waiting
for its money. and some of Mr.. Lick's
most cherished plans have fallen through
altogether. What lawyers fees. what
costs. what i'll feeling, what delay would
have been saved IL James Lick had sim.
ply handed over the gift to the school T.

be no longer flesh eaters, but will subsist
on grains and fruits. They will under

will be sick and everybody will have a
fair chance. The body will grow in
strength. size and beauty to correspond
TO all these felicitous arrangements.
The brain will enlarge in its anterior even more
