In the superior court yesterday morn
ing before Judge Wheeler new jury
was impanelled. When the jury was
selected Judge Wheeler said: Il want
to say something to the members OF the
jury. You must not talk with anybody
about the case before you. You must
not allow anybody to speak with you,
and if anybody tries to talk to you,
walk away from them and report to
the court. You must not read the pa
pers, and this instruction includes talk
ing with members of the jury not on
this panel. The jurors in this county
have been approached. There is no
question about it in my mind. 1t is
reflection on the other jurors who are
summonedin. Men approach only those
whom they suppose are willing to list

administration of justice in this coun-
ty clean. That's ALL"
