The Talk"

Last night being the final Monday
evening upon which it was advertised
that the Art League would be open
quite number of people availed them
selves of the opportunity and the visi-
tors book showed a record outnum ber-
ing many other days put together.
1t would be pleasant to see cards
upon more of the frames denoting that
the pictures are sold. Those who have
purchased or those who will do so dur
ing the remainder of the week, will
have ample time to get their treasure
home before the holidays, for the ex-
hibition remains open till Saturday of
this week. A Christmas gife in the
shape of one of Mr.. Hitchcock's can
vases would be something to be priced
indeed
Those who remember his interesting
Talk About Art to the League mem
bers last June will have an opportuni-
ty to hear Mr.. Hitchcock again on
Friday evening Cards are being is
sued today for that occasion, and it
is hoped that all those who receive
them will include their friends in the
invitation. If Mr. Hitchcock will dash
few ideas with charcoal upon paper
as he proceeds, his hearers will doubly
appreciate his ability to please and
instruct them

THE NATIVE JURY.

The conviction of the persons
charged with the murder of DIR.
Smith, by a verdict of nine only
out of twelve members, was d
narrow escape from Il miscarriage
of justice. If the jury system
which prevails in all of the FEEDER
al Courts, including the territOr
ial, prevailed here, as it soon may,
there would have been a gross
violation of justice. The evidence
was both direct and circumstan
tial. and was as conclusive as evi-
dence of this kind usually is. Al
together the charge OF murder
was proved with singular force.
Yet three jurors disregarded it,
and under the American system,
the murderers would have escap
ed conviction on the trial. The
action of the nine jurors was most
creditable. if that is the word to
use, when one simply does plain
duty.
What motive Influenced the
three jurors in refusing to agree,
we do not know. Several persons
quite familiar with the subject,
predicted before trial, that three
Jurors and probably more would
stand out, and the opinion was
put on several grounds, racial be-
ing one of them.
The community is aware OF the
ridiculous farce of native jury
trials, in the case of the men who
took armed possession OF the
Palace in 1889. The racial feel
ing seemed to dominate, and II
was so stated in the Press. The
power to render a verdict by nine
out of twelve jurors, is of specia
value here. Annexation will brins
some annOyances. and the estab
lishment of the American system
here, as is genearlly conceded i
must be. will be one of them, bu1
the racial distinction will be abOl
ished. Our views, the Star says
are ga slur upon the Hawaiians.'

Some years ago there was quite an
agitation here about establishing a
properly licensed pawnshop. a bill
was drawn, but was so mauled in the
Legislature that when it came out its
own father did not know it and it has
proved a dead letter. There is no
doubt that the loaning of money upon
pledges should be regulated by law
and that the enormous percentages OBJ
tanned by this kind of business should
be curtailed. In New York recently a
reform pawnshop has been conducted
by some philanthropists, who charge
one per cent month as against two
and half per cent in the regular
pawn shops. The venture has paid a
dividend of six per cent upon a capital
of 100000. Rates in this town, it is
said, run up to ten and twelve per
cent a MONTH The question might
very justly be agitated again.

If a wife wants to have her
husband think as much of her
as he does of his maternal
parent she must look to the
larder and see that it is pro-
vided with plenty of things for

in this instance is not the only
essential; quality plays an i'm
portant part in food articles.
You can fill a dish with
peas, but if they are not of
good quality they will remain
full. We are now selling
genuine Petit Pois in one and

markedly good, and cheap.
Another delicacy is Pre-
served Mushrooms-new here
and we are selling them to

with the superintendents of the mills so
that the people who witness the fight
may have no reason to fear any disturb
ance from millmen, or in fact any body OF
men who may contemplate a raid on the
battle-ground.
"You can wager and be sure of winning

ever will try on any such game will re-
ceive the warmest reception that any man
ever got, and that's all have to say in
the matter"

The San Francisco call., 1897-02-11

Stuart said that he could not give even
a hint as to the place where the fight wilt
be held, as he must first see some of the
leading sporting men and fnanciers of
Reno and Carson before anything definite
regarding the battle-ground can be de-
cided upon.
ITO be candid with you," said Stuart,
II don't care where the contest will be
held as long as it is in the State OF Ne
vada. l dare say, though, that either
Reno or Carson will be selected. Reno
has the advantage so far as the telegraphic
facilities are concerned, but all this mat
ter will rest, as l previously SAID, with
the leading men of :he State who have
been instrumental in the passage OF an
act permitting finish contests. After
see the Reno people, which will be to-
morrow, l think the public will know
where the championship heavyweight
battle will be decided"
Regarding the gambling facilities Stu
art said that lie guessed it would be first
come first served" and that he had moth
ing to do with the peol-selling privileges.
He did not hesitate to say that he would
be represented in the pool-selling venture,
as ne expected that large sums OF money
would be wagered on the result. He had
kilograms from prominent Eastern sport
ing men which stated that New York and
other large Eastern cities would be well
represented at the mill.
Regarding rates between this City and
whichever place in Nevada State the fight
will be held he said that Mr.. WheeIock,
his advance agent, had made very salts
factory arrangements with the railroad
officials here. and that as soon as the bat
tle-ground is decided upon the, people
of this City will be informed on matters
pertaining to rates and transportation.
When asked as to the prices OF admis-
sion to the fstic carnival he intended to
charge. Stuart said that the figures would
be within reach of all; that four lates of
