ing was done last week toward settling

gone to New York on private business.
Ex-Mayor James Duncan, of Las ve-
gas, who was opposed by the office brok-
erage CO nbine for U. s. marshal OF New

keeps up powerful lot of thinking. Jim
may be heard to talk in NO uncertain

Secretary Lamont had interested himself
in my behalf, but foolishly told the
secret to one of the committee and he
went to Mr.. Lamont with long story
about statehood and the native element
and no action in the matter was then
taken. short time after received a

telling me that he would personally like
to see me the marshal, but that he thought
it wise not to interfere with the wishes of
the committee, who had slated some other

A TRIAL BY JURY

The defects of trial by jury have long
been perceived. There is no telling what
a jury will do, is common way of put.
ting it.. The theory is that jury is com.
posed of twelve good men and true, but
the fact is that the twelve men are not in.
variably good and true. And all of those
who are good and true may not know as
much as well-equipped juror ought to.
Therefore juries sometimes do queer
things. A case in point has just
come to light in Brooklyn. William
Hanson had q case for damages
against the New York Standard Watch
company in Brooklyn court, secured a
verdict and had the matter of the amount
of indemnity settled in curious manner.
Each one Of the twelve jurymen wrote
down the SUM which he thought came the
nearest to what was right, the twelve
amounts were added together and the sum
was divided by twelve. The quotient was
the sum named in the verdict.
Playwrights might find material in this
case for their use. It would go we'll in a
trial scene, and be fine satire on law and
Justice.

70 TEACH OHILDREN THRIFT.

To TEACH CHILDREN THRIFT.
Boston ia always ready to try any exper
iment that promises to result in benefit to
the children in her public schools. The
latest is vote of the School board "that
the Stamp Saving Society be given per-
mission to try the experiment In the Han
cock and Eliot districts of their plan of
encouraging the saving of money by the
school children, the same to be done oat
Of school hours and under the direction
of the division committee" Objection was
made by some members of the board, 1t
being urged that the innovation would
involve extra work for the teachers, and
also certain amount of friction, should
mistakes occur, but one member appears
to have clinched the discussion by declar-
ing that the saving of money ought to be
a part OF the education of the young, and
that the plan proposed was legitimate
part Of educational work.
In carrying out the plan colored stamps
of six denominations and stamp cards will
be used. To each person wishing to be-
come depositor the local treasurer gives
stamp card, and sells as many stamps as
he has money for. These stamps must be
pasted on the card. The card when full
will probably contain about $5. As soon
as the child has stamps for that sum thu
money is taken and deposited for him In
some savings bank that he may dssignate.
The IS once deposited he begins again, and
the small sum grows to larger one under
his hands If he wishes to withdraw he pre-
sents his card aud draws all that is on 1t.
Then If he has m re money than he cares
to use he calls for another card and rede-
posits the balance. By this method all
bookkeeping is avoided, the child always
knows how much he has, and the local
treasurer can tell In the same manner. If
the child loses the card, however, he loses
his money, or rather all that he carried on
that card.
1t is believed that in this way the chill
dren will be encouraged to be thrifty. The
working of the experiment will be watched
with general interest.
