JURY-NOTICE SERVERS DEFENDED.

SHERIFF TAMsEN's STATEMENT IN REPLY TO
CRITICISM.
Sheriff Tamsen has given the following statement
with reference to criticism said to have been made
by member of the Board Of Estimate 10 the chcct
that tury-notice servers habitually made perjured
afIidavis of personal service of jury notices The
Sheriff says
THE unmistakable facts prove the four jury serN
to be extremely efficient painstaking ana con-
sc Centious men. The criticism was utterly un-
founded and hasty and was based upon the sole
glound that delinquent jurors. when attempting TO
shrk fines for non-attendance. frequently endeaVor
shift the blame for their neglect upon the servers
whose affdavits of service they would condemn
The Court when passing upon such cases seldom
has before it any witnesses but the juror hImseii
squrmng under the prospect OF fine and Wiling H.
unfortunately, too many cases to stretch his con-
science by contradcting the oath of the practically
disnterested server who is a sworn officer.
The law permitted either OF two kinds of service
personal service which is self-expanatory, and
written service whereby the notice is left at the
jurors address as furnished by the Commissioner
of Jurors, with person OF suitable age ana DIS
his duty under the statute and is entitled to his
mcagre fee of 10 cents, whether the notice really
reaches the juror or not.
''The Assistant Corporaton- Counsel and the Shcr-
IFS jury clerk, who have had charge respectively
of the collection of jurors fines ana the service OF
the Sheriff. notices for several years say that tho
practical results show the service during the cur
rent year has been much better performed than
heretofore.
1T should also be said that the Corpora ton Cour-
sci proceedings to collect fines are frequently IN
effective because commonly mo- brought unIl man man
months or some years have elapsed since the delin-
quenCV happencd.'
