The Hot Springs Star has taken the
pains to figure out the following peculiar
~happenstance in the drawing of grand
jurors:
In the late drawing of the grand jury
for the February term Of the U. S. court
to be held at Deadwood, nineteen jurors
were drawn from Dradwood, Lead and
vicinity, two are from Spearf>h, two
from Rapid and one from Sturgis. Hot
Springs and the southern Hills towns
are not represented. One hundred and
fifty petit jurors were drawn. all of
whom will receive notice from the
marshal through the mail, no personal
service being required.
Fred Evans and w. w. Stewart are
the only men drawn on the petit jury
from Fall River county, and George
Boland of Buffalo Gap, the only man
drawn from Custer county. Fortunately,
the southern Hills is not in it to any
material extent.

Samuel Scott returned on Tuesday

property in which he is largely interest
ed. and which is at present under lease
to the South Dakota Manufacturing
Company of this city. Mr.. Scott reports
a continuation of the wo k Of develop
ment on the property with highly salts
factory results. The tests recently made
at Omaha and Denver have been very
favorable, and warrant the continuance
of work upon the property, aud the re-
cent assurance of securing outside capt.
tai to aid in the establishment of a

TO warrant the early Inauguration of ex-

DEATH by HEART FAILURE OF THE
FRENCH CONSUL.
Found in His Red-Had Been Slightly
II-Madame verleye Pro-
strated.

Mons. Henri Leon Verleye,
French Commissioner at Honolulu,
died shortly after 10 o'clock Thurs
day night of heart failure. Death
was sudden and unexpected, even
by the attending physician. Mons.
Verleye has been in comparatively
good health for sometime. Thurs
day afternoon, however, he fell ill,
and suffered for an hour or more,
when DR.. Wood was called in AT
6 o'clock the physician left his
patient much better.
Shortly after Mons. Verleye went
to his own room and retired for the
night. His wife, who was some
what nervous on account of his
condition, visited him about 8
o'clock. She found him asleep and
apparently resting easy. Shortly
after 10 o'clock she approached the
bedside again, and found him
dead.
Madame Verleye was greatly
shocked when she made this dis
covery. Acting upon her first inn
pulse she screamed for help. Sever.
al neighbors responded, and friends
of the family in the city were inn
mediately notified. In short time
Vice Consul w. M. Giffard, Mr.
Canavarro, Portuguese Charge d.
Affairs, Rev. Father Leonore, Geo.
Ross and wife, who live next door,
and Minister Willis and wife
arrived.
Lr. Wood was summoned and
soon arrived with Dr.. Herbert.
They found their patient to be
Madame Verleye, for at that time
she was in terrible state Of ner-
vousness from the sudden shock of
her husbands death.
Mons. Verleye and wife arrived
at Honolulu in January, 1894.
His relations with the Government
were of the most pleasant possible,
and he was well liked by the dip
lomatic corp.
The French Commissioner and
his wife have lived a quiet life
since their arrival in Honolulu.
They have an infant daughter
about seven months old.
The body of the deceased gentle
man will be embalmed and return
ed to France.

TO HEAR MISS POLLARD.
NOTED ELoCUTIoNIsT MAY COME
WITH TOURISTS.


Early in July party of students
from the University Of Chicago
contemplate making tour of these
Islands, among their number will
be found young journalists, scien-
fists, art students, and if the nego-
tiations now pending are success
full Honolulu will have the pleas
ure of hearing Miss Myra Pollard
whose literary and artistic ability
is best described in the short per
sonal sketch given below by Fran
els L. Dusenberry, editor of
Chicago WOmsH'S NewS.
Miss Myra Pollard who is a
native of Chicago, has for some
years been prominent exponent of
Evolutionary and expressional art
in that city and vicinity, both i'll
the line Of instruction and enter
tainment She has given numer-
Gus recitals, portraying as well
her own work as that of pupils,
and is widely known as an accom-
plished, unaffected and exception
ally intelligent artist.
Miss Pollard has not reached the
enviable position she occupies in her
profession without hard work and
thorough and careful preparation,
and has broader foundation ofcul-
ture than is always brought to this
vocation. She was graduated from
the University of Michigan in the
Classical Department, and after
wards returned to her Alma Mater
and took a Masters Degree, max
ing a specially of Vocal Physiology,
in which she conducted original
experiments, and pursuing other
studies allied to her professional
work.
Miss Pollard has studied with
many of the most prominent
teachers of her art, and has given
much thought to the investigation
and INTERPRETATION of the best
authors as well as the rendition of
the lighter selections more often
heard from Evolutionary plat forms.
She read paper before the
National Association of Elocution-
lists convened at Philadelphia in
June, 1894, which was spoken of
in the highest terms by members of
the profession. She is particularly
adapted to expressional work and
lecturing on all phases Of the Art. |
Her personal illustrations in ply
steal culture and statuesque posing
command the highest praise"
Miss Pollard contemplates join
ing this excursion party of students
provided she can arrange to give
an entertainment while here. Those
now having the matter in hand can
assure Miss Pollard that such tai
ent as she possesses can always find
an audience in Honolulu.
