A SENSITIVE JUROR.

After the discharge of the jury in the White
embezzement case, the Assistant District
Attorney is reported to have told one of the
jurymen who voted for acquittal that he
could not see how such a conclusion could
be reached without palpaDle disregard of a
jurors oath. The juror the next day asked
to be excused from further jury duty,
giving the reason that he did not like to be
talked to in that way. The point in these
proceedings that justifies comment is that
the juror should have given the verdict he
did and still remain sensitive to public
opinion. The sensitive juror was excused.

HOW THE SILVER LAW WORKS.

While the price Of silver has not advanced
as was expected under the present law, the
President thinks it should be given further
trial. He accounts for the depression in
silver bullion partly by the falling off in
the exports from London to India and partly
TO increased production. Phe exports of
silver bullion last year were but Sl3, 707, 39l,
against an average for ten years of 7.000.-
600 The amount purchased by the Govern
.nent is more than S6,000,0O0 in excess of
tie domestic product after allowing for the

HUNTED WITH BLOODHOUNDS

h is No a Forocious Animal, But VIII
Not LEI His Man Go.
The popular belief that bloodhounds
are ferocious is one of the most I'M
warranted errors, says the Post-Dis-
patch. Such is far from being the
case. Bloodhounds such as those
which will be employed to trace the
outlaw and such as are to-day used in
the convict camps and prisons in many
parts of the coul.try have none of the
ferocity generally ascribed to them.
Their reputation for savageness is de-
rived from what is known as the Gu
ban bloodhound of slave hunting noto-
riety, but which is in reality no blood
hound at all. The Cuban bloodhound
was produced by a cross between q
mastiff and pointer, and was intro
ducei into Spanish America by the
early settlers
Their employment in hunting In
dians and slaves increased their natur-
ally belligerent temper, until in time
they became the most dangerous Of
the canine kind. These animals have
only the name in common with the
British bloodhound, which Is a far
finer animal 1t has the characteris-
tics of the sagacious and swift-footed
dogs, while the Cuban animal pos

There are items of interest in every
number OF the japanese Gazette, pub

be found in a copy that has recently

On the front page there is an adver-
tisement in which Hung Sing VINO is
probably a Chinaman, announces to
Yokohama that he has just 'estab-
lished himself as a portrait painter and
keeps a large stock of cigars at lowest
prices"
The Yokohama and Kobe Associa-
ton of Guides gives notice that its
members belong to the Kaiyusha and
are at the service OF tourists.
There are many steamers advertised
to run from Yokohama to Chinese and
other ports.
In fire at AMER sixty houses of
planks and bamboo with atap roofs
were burned and became seething

When Count Itagaki arrived in
Shinjo he had triumphal reception
and fifty men in armor welcomed him

nearly 20 years old; four of them are

tary. Her cook is cordon bteu, her
dinner parties the despair of all Paris
to say nothing of greater entertain
meuts. Madame knows everybody
worth knowing on three contin-
ents. Ali circles open to her. Royalty
is not more exclusive or half so dis
eliminating. Genius and good breeding
combined make the surest open sesame
to her favor. Though firm in the
faith of her race, you may meet in
her salon all shades of belief or dis
belief Yet though so liberal in her
associations, madame cannot overlook
everything. Her only child, daugh-
ter, welded a Christian and remains
an exile from her mothers favor
Madame's jewels are simply fabulous
in value-so much so, in fact, as to
put mere royal collections quite out of
countenance. She has ropes of pearls,
seas and rivers of diamonds; sapphires
a queen might sigh for in vain: pigeon
blood rubies whose worth would equip
an army. One trusted man servant
has charge OF them all Whenever
she goes, in tact-he is always at
hand. 1t was once suggested to her
that perhaps she ran a risk; the temp
tation might one day be too great for
him. She answered, in great surprise:
Steal my jewels? Why should he?
He could only turn them into money,
and already he has all that money can
h7,r- h
servants-besides, he loves me, as l
love and trust him.
Well may he love her-and many
more as we'll For this great lady
stately, snowy-haired graaade dame to
her very finger tips-is a manifest
providence to the poor and needy.
Very much of her time and money are
given to them, especially the sick poor,
whom almost daily she. visits in the
hospitals. Once she found there a
poor being from the provinces dying
of fever and deliriously craving the
pear cider of her native village.
The doctor said it could make
no ultimate difference; death was a
matter Of hours at best but that pear
cider was something not to be found
in the city. They had sent all about
for it, but in vain. Madame looked at
her a minute then went back to her
carriage and drove away. Six hours
later she came back with just one
quart of pear cider found in an
auberge just outside the barriers. She
had searched for it since she went
away and felt more than rewarded
when the poor parched invalid drank
and died content

Whether luck or brains is the more
potent is still debatable question. but
the combination is irresistible Twen-
ty years ago q bright young fellow
from the country was conductor on
one of the street railroads of the me-
tropolis. Ability and attention to bus
mess secured his promotion step by
step until he was made superintendent
Of the road. At this point he lost his
wife and one of the Target stock
holders. who was a so an official in the
company, died about the same time.
The rising man married the widow,
stepped into his predecessors Official
shoes and handled his wealth as il he
had been accustomed to it all his life.
From which it appears that the bright
young car conductor can hope to cut
his coupons before his hair turns gray
