Samuel Bassett, one of the defendant

ever he was ordered to do by the en-
gineer. On Dec. 18th 1891, at eleven
O'Clock, John r. Somers, the night

DUTIES OFJURORS.
Justice Albeit Makes Some VERY
Timely Remarks ON the
Subject.

Justice Albeit has delivered an
opinion in Runterdon county case,
In which he sets aside verdict In the
case Of Smith vs. Suydam, rendered
In the Hunterdon County Court last
term, for misconduct on the part OF
the foreman of the jury, and makes.
some very timely remarks concerning
the duty of jurors, The case was
somewhat lengthy and aroused a
great deal of Interest, During the
pendency Of the trial, the foreman of
the jury approached two men who
were discussing the case at a hotel
near by, and offered to bet that the
verdict would be rendered for the
plaintiff, and afterwards added II ann
the foreman of the jury; how much
will you betT' This statement Is un-
contradicted by the juror, and Justice
Albeit holds that it is sufficient to
impeach the verdict, and that a juror
who Is gnilty Of such conduct is unfit
to sit in a case. He therefore set aside
the verdict and grants a new trial.
II think 1t Is necessary says Judge
Albeit In the course of the opin-
ion, "for the administration of justice
In general that the people of the COM
munity should feel sure that a juror
while he is upon panel, will hold his
mind open until the case is closed and
given In charge by the Court: that he
will not take sides either way until
the case is concluded; and he will lis
ten to all the testimony on both sides
with an unbiased mind; that he will
listen to what the Court may say as to,
the law, and that after having all the.
light which the law gives to him on
that subject. that then, he will exer-
else his sound discretion without bias
or partiality to try to reach a ver-
dict under tine evidences and under
the charge of the Court. Unless this
course is adopted by jurors the lives,
the liberty and the property of the
people Of the community are all SUBJ
ject to the ceprice of the individual
juror, or to his feelings or to outside or
improper influences. The highest
consideration involving the admins
tration of justice require in this case
that the verdict should be set aside on
account of the misconduct of the
foreman of the jury, showing partial
ity and bias on his part. No such
verdict can stand in court of justice
and the people OF the county retain
their confidence In trial by jury, and
in the firmness of the administration
of Justice"

A California shrub.

"One of the most delightful of all
CALIFORNIA; many wonders is its
manzanita thickets," said c. c.
Howard, of Los Angeles. at the La
clede. "Botanists have paid little
attention to the manzanita, yet 1t Is
one of the most beautiful and unique
of Towering shrubs. The manzanita
can grow in more uncouth shapes
yet more crooks to the foot of stem
than any shrub | know of. Its
flowers are urn shaped, either white
or rose tinted and are very fragrant.
At the season of bloom. which ranges
from early winter to April, accord
ing to location, it makes wonderful
display.
The stages of the mining counties
make poor time on account of the pas
sengers insisting on frequent stop
pages to G; her the beautiful manza-
nita. Day after day and week after
week it rains down its fragrant
bloom until the earth is covered with
it. and still the bush shows no dimi-
mutton in the number of its blossoms.
Thousands of acres of manzanita
thicket are being cleared to plant
vineyard and orchard, and as all eff
forts to domesticate it have signally
failed it seems only a question OF
time when this pride of a region
noted for. the beauty and variety of

The rlIch, Of a Cannon palI.

The well known scientific photog
rapher, Anschetz. of Lissa. has for
some years been experimenting in
making photographs of the flight OF
cannon balls from the instant they
leave tie muzzle of the gun to the
time of their striking the object
aimed at. After many attempts and
failures he finally succeeded in OBJ
tanning highly interesting results,
not reaching what he called the acme
of perfection. however, until 1890.
The plates of this last mentioned
experiment were submitted to DR..
Koenig, Of the Berlin university. who
was able to make therefrom the long
sought practical calculations. From
figures thus deduced DR.. Koenig es-
tablished the fact that the projectile
photographed has been passing
through the air with velocity Of
4OO meters per second, and that the
duration of the light thrown on the
Photographic plates had not exceed
ed the lO,OOOth part of a. second. -
