The Juror Was Preiudiced.

Frank Miller, who was convicted Of
murder in Lassen County and sentenced
to imprisonment for life, is to have an
other opportunity for his liberty. He ap-
pealed from the judgment and order on
the ground that he did not have a fair
and impartial trial. The Supreme Court
in reviewing the case found that the jury
was not of such men as most persons ac-
cused of crime would like to have try
their cases. One in particular was clearly
prejudiced from what he had heard and
court thought that the challenge of this
juror should have been allowed as the
mans admissions showed that he was
disqualified from sitting at the trial. For
this reason the judgment was reversed
and the case sent back for a new trial

now a great field for womans work IN

rush, which produced nearly f750000 worth
and the mines were worked a intervals
for long time-until the reign of George
III, In fact. In the reign of Henry III
we find the first mention of Westmoreland
gold in a charter granted by that monarch,
ana directed upon the Keswick gold dis
trict
Most of the writs of early times, how
ever, seem TO have been directed upon
mines further south-those in Devon, Corn
wall Essex and Dorset. There is one,
however, in the reign of Edward III which
is directed on a couple of mines situated
in Gloucester and Shropshire. The Mines
Royal of Elizabeth are well known So
soon as Good Queen Bess heard Of a mine
of whatsoever kind she promptly annexed
II, on the plea that it might contain gold
or silver. II it did, she took unto herself
the lions share. II not she granted the
mine to one of her favorites to work
probably on commission, for the Virgin
Queen had very good eye for business.
In this way the Earl of Leicester was the
lessee of several copper and lead mines
and the Duke Of Northumberland of sew
eral others, the major portion of the
profits of which probably went into their
royal mistress pocket.
Very little strangely enough has been
heard of irish gold; yet Ireland was once
center of civilization far in advance of
England. Despite the fact that Kina, Holm
squeezed a vast quantity of gold out of
the Irish, and also that the remains orna-
mented with gold found in boys. barrows
etc. must have demonstrated conclusive
~ that there ought TO be a large quantity
of the precious metal in the country. no
body seems to have given a thought to
prospecting 1t until the year 1895:
In that year a schoolmas ter named Dom
ahoo found a quantity Of small nuggets
at Croghan, in County Wicklow. but was
laughed at when ne told of his discovery.
He did not further attempt to convince the
natives, but used to wander about in the
early mornings, and collected a consider
able quantity of gold which he sold to a
goldsmith. At last another man, crossing
a brook, found a haf-ounce nugget. and
this. coupled with the fact that the school
master was becoming rapidly rich con-
WINGED the unbeievers, and caused a rush
to the place. Government stepped in then
but little too late, for before they could
get TO work the peasants and others who
had focked 10 the spot had cleared off the
bulk of the gold. 1t was calculated that in
the few months between the finding of the
half-ounce nugget mentioned above and
the interference of the government several
million pounds worth of gold was secured
| by the peasants and others, and all that
| the government got was ,666 ounces. The
biggest nugget found measured four by
three inches, and was about half an inch
thick its weight being twenty-five ounces.
The government continued to work the de-
post, but as they obtained only "a 900
worth in two years the effort was aban-
doned.

TO HAVE 4 WHITE PRIMARY.
Negro Vote VIII BE Eliminated From
Augustus Election.

Augusta, March 30.-Augusta made a
great stride tonight towards future peace
and harmony in the community and to-
ward pure elections.
At an enthusiastic mass meeting in the
basement of the court house provision
was made for a white primary election on
April 10 TO settle who shall be Mayor,
and eliminate the purchasable negro from
future elections in Augusta. Acting May
or Phinizy was elected chairman of the
meeting, and resolutions providing for the
primary were introduced by Mr.. N. l.
Willett.
He said, in advocating his resolutions,
the white primary is not aimed against
the negro but against crime-the crime
of the whites buying the negro's votes.
and the crime of the negro selling his vote.
He said he had been approached by a
leading negro citizen after the last mu-
nicipal election, asking him to do all he
could in the interest of a white primary.
He recognized chat It would mean his own
Acknowledgement, but he was willing to
submit to this in the interest of the NOR
ais of his people and the community
The meeting was unanimous in its ac-
ton, and April II named as the day for
the white primary. A committee of three
citizens from each ward was chosen to
arrange for the details of the election
