ANECDOTES or JURIES.
A Maine Liquor Dealer Who Sat as Il
Grand Juror IN His Own Case.

from the Boston Transcript
A clear instance OF it's being really
privilege to sit as Il juror was that
of Maine li1uor dealer who, as q
member of the grand jury. lately con-
sidered his own case of keeping liquor
nuisance. and who persuaded himself
ard his fellows that o cause for in
dictment existed, although a legal
seizure of liquors had been made on
his premises.
Another such was where a juror OBJ
stnately stood out against all his fell
lows ana the Judge in his refusal to
find guilty a man accused of murder
with a pitchfork. although the accused
had been seen to run away from
quarrel with one who soon afterwards
was found stabbed to death. Il sub
sequently transpired that tie juror.
who thus forced a disagreement, mad
clandcstnely done the stabbing him
self, and had, some way, Intentionally
got upon the jury SO as 10 prevent the
accused being punished.
TIE above grand juryman, accused
of keeping a nuisance. came into court
with Il better appreciation of the mean
ing of the word nuisance than did a
at great length on the true definition
of that word; before sending this jury
out. the court hoped they understood
what he had laid down, wheretO the
foreman assented, adding that they all
agreed they never knew what a nuis-
arce was till they heard the courts
summing up! They possibly felt to-
ward the judge as did a Mormon COR
oner's jury toward an obnoxious Gem
tile who was found slain; a verdict
was returned in accordance with this
fact. alleging as the cause of death of
deceased, He needed killing" a jury
will sometimes, as in this instance,
identify themselves III interest with
the culprit, rs did also these twelve
good men and true" who acquitted the
victim of sham marriage, proved to
have poisoned her deceiver; they man
ufacturad ground of insanity, but the
real ground was privately expressed
as served him right"
The Scranton tribune. [volume] (Scranton, Pa.) 1891-1910, 1898-02-04

without any thought, followed his
usual custom and said Good morn
ing" to each machine attendant. Some
of the men showed utter Indifference to
this polite salute: others looked unmis-
takably surprised; still others appar-
entity almost resented the innocent re-
mark. one individual in particular in
variably scowled and growled at the
work which this expert was doing.
Day after day the same reception from
this man was received. Finally, after
more than three years had elapsed, the
expert was astonished one morning TO
see cordial smile coming involun-
tarily over the countenance OF TINS
gloomy mechanic; the man extended
his hand and said in loud tone: -
----- 1t, it's no use trying to make you
mad; I'll give it up" From that day
forward these men were mutual
friends and the morning greeting was
ever after cordially reciprocated by the
converted mechanic. The experiments
of the expert were i'm a measure depend
ent for their success upon the verdict
of these mechanics, and a friendly sem
timent between himself and the men
was therefore desira BILE, apart from the
natural disposition of friendliness which
originally prompted the expert to say
Good morning" daily.

General Lanes Engineering Skill.

General Jim Lane, of Kansas. may have
been good fighter, but he knew precious
little about military tactics or the ne
cessity for strategy in military move
ments. The editor of the Columbus
G<anD Courier last week related a story
which he heard upon arriving in Bour-
bon county just at the close of the war
which illustrates Lanes lack of military
skill and at the same time presents a
phase of the old fellows character which
will be readily recognized by his war time
associates. Lane had established Fort
Lincoln short distance north OF Fort
Scott in the early days OF the war. 1t
was situated at the bottom of a little
valley which was surrounded on every
side by hipi mounds. one day an in
spectng officer of the engineer corps Of
the regular army arrived. and was as
tonished to discover the strategic lacking
which marked the location Of the post.
"Who located this fort?' he inquired
of Lane who was in command.
81 did, sir" responded the general.
"Well. general, this location is exceed
ingly observation-disclosures. The enemy could
come up on any one of these mounds
and shell you out, and you would be
practically helpless
81 thought of that sir; | thought of
that" said General Lane. with the ut
most gravity: "but at the same time 7
thought, IL the fort was captured, how
easy it would be to recapture it, sir"
