The Pyramid Pile Cure is the most popu-

most successful. It cures every form OF
piles without pain or detention from daily
occupation and contains no opiate or CO.

The jury which viii pass upon the guilt or
innocence Of Frank w Funk charged with
murder for which he IS on trial in Criminal
Court No. 2 before Justice Cole, was com
pletcd yesterday. The taking Of testimony
viii be begun this morning. The selection
Of the Jurors was tedious undertaking.

Before the jury was complete the defence
had exhausted its twenty peTemptory chal-
lenges allowed under the law while the
Government had taken advantage of on y
two OF the FIVE peremptory challenges il
was entitled TO. When this stage of the
proceedings was reached Justice Cole, who
presided over the proceedings, announced
that it had been his intention some time
earlier in the day u object to q talesmen
who was permitted 10 enter the Jury box
The mans name is w H. Suit and Justice
Cole stated that in his opinion he was
doubtful if he had fully qualified as a
juror. Suit had however, been peremptor-
lily challenged by the defence. In doing
this the court believed that one Of the chal-
Ienges OF the defence was used when II
should not have been. Justice Cole there
fore, when the defence had exhausted its
twenty peremptory challenges, stated that
he would allow it one more. This privilege
the defence promptly took advantage Of.
Making all allowance for the presence
Of the hundred extra talesmen summoned
il was plain that the attendance was great
er than oH the opening day.
When the prisoner entered the court
room he smiled as he did on Monday. il
was evidently forced. however for within
very few minutes the smile faded away
