Frank Barwick had formed an opinion
on the merits of the case and was fixed
in his belief. S. Kubey was opposed
to capital punishment. So was that
kind hearted young man, &. l.. Glenn
ent, who will take Il vacation from
talking people to death on advertising
in the street cars and serve as water
front reporter on this paper in place OF
John Effinger, who is a juror. Z. p.
Chaplin could not qualify. George An
gus does not believe in capital punish
ment. Jack Lucas, by the way, had
too strong a belief in capital punish
ment ''in such cases"
1t is expected that the gentlemen of
the jury will be at large in time to see
the races next month. All received
clothing from their homes last evening.
Frank Godfrey, who had been sum-
moned for a trial at jury honors, dis
regarded the call, was brought in on a
bench warrant and was fined $25 by
Judge Perry. Mr.. Godfrey was given
into the keeping of Deputy Marshal
Hitchcock pending payment of the $25,
and spent last night as the guest of
Governor Henry, of the reef.
Not in many years here has there
been so much difficulty in securing a
Jury and so much interest in that sec
ton of case. The matter was one
with which every intelligent man was
obviously more or less familiar, and in
the selection of jurors the defense prac-
tically had it's own way with it's sixty
challenges and the somewhat peculiar
causes
Nearly every man who found his
name on the panel of the special ve-
nires wished to avoid the service il
possible.

A plan for a season of racing is pro-
posed and has been received by the
horsemen and sportsmen with APPROX
al This is TO have races June 10 and
y, on the Saturdays between the 18th
of June and the Fourth of July and
then a final big day on the Fourth
There were two days of racing last sea-
son and it paid well. It will be re-
membered that on the 11th last year
the free-for-all was best two heats in
three and on July 4 best three in five,
giving the advocates of the two series
equal chance. 1t is believed that the
public here will patrOnize several days
of racing during the season. It is ask
ing a great deal Of the owners of the
horses TO fit them for a single event,
or at most for two trials.

not afford to take the home papers

Country teachers, for the preparation
which they must make to secure even
third grade certificate, are about as
poorly paid for their work MS any class
we know. Many Of them are forced
10 teach for s2S or ESQ a month, and
this for terms ranging from four TO SIX
months. The balance Of the year they
mus, find other means Of earning liv-
Ing, which is net always easy to do.
The life Of a country district school
teacher is not an inviting one, and we
DO not wonder that so many of them
follow Il for a time only, while prcpar'
ing themselves for a calling which prom.
Ices better remuneration. Not unuj
school directors learn that Il is the best
policy TO employ the most capable
teachers aud pay them living salary,
instead of hunting for those who vii
teach for the least money, will the
more capable ones be encouraged IC
make teaching their life work, deVol'
ing their best talents to it, instead Of
spending their spare time studying io'
some other calling or profession.

Mrs. Emmous Blaine If Chicago, to
whom was bcqucathed Large portion
of the wealth Of her father, Cyrus Mc-
Cormick, has returned her personally
for assessment at Sl,j93, 600, which,
she says, is the actual value.
In these days Of tax dodgiug such
M act of common honesty oyercomes
US with special wonder. Mrs. Blaine
explains to protesting friends that she
does this because It Is right, which
seems simple and satisfactory enough.
But like many other simple truths,
right doing Is often the last thing
thought Of Tax dodgers ask the ques-
ton, "Wil II pay?" aud stay not to
consider scruples Of conscience.
Mrs. Blaine hiss done y public ser
vice in thus sharply emphasizing the
distinction between right and profit,
between duty aud solfshuess, In the
struggle for wealth aud power moral
distinctions are apt to be forgotten.
Aud they are most persisiently Ignored
by those whose position In society
should be guarantee OF perfect eandor.
The population Of duty owing to the
State by those who receive most In the
way of protection and benefit Is breed
Ing want and feeding discomfort. Mrs.
Blaine's plain act Is 4 timely reminder
to those who have most to lose that
tax lodging is short-sighied as well as
wrong.

Hon. Richard T. Bland was a mem.
Der Of Congress when what was de-
nominated the "back salary grab bill''
was passed, which gave to each Ma
tional Representative 60, 900 for back
services. 1t was an unpopular meas
uFe among the people, and number
Of Congressman, who believed that
there was no warrant for such pro-
ceeding, refused 10 take advantage oil
the law and aecep, the money. Among
them was MIR. Bland. In view Of this
and the further fact that he was not a
man who used his public position 10
enrich himself, It has been suggested
by the friends aud admirers Of this hon.
orable and lamentcd statesman that
steps be taken 10 recover from tine Gov.

should no, allow the beloved liie-part-

want for any Of the comforts Of life,
and some movement to place her be-

ing several OF the towns Ia Southeast

General Smith has received a letter
from Major Rathbone, Director Gen.
cral of Posts of Cuba, lnclGsing one
from Miss Barton, president Of the

asks aid from the Postoificc Department
In putting a stop to a fraud now being
prseticed upon eharitably disposed peo-
pie in the name of the Red Cross by 4
man who styles himself Reverend j. +.
Marston. This man seems to have OPP
Grated lately 10 Missouri, Tennessee
and Illinois. His method is 10 repre-
sent himself rs n collector for the Red
Gross, the money to be used In the al
leviation of suffering In Cuba. Afler
collecting a small amount---say 1880
he incloses the cents to Miss Barton
aud keeps the dollars for himself
stating. however, that be inelOsed the
full amount, leaving the recipient OF
his letter to infer that the letter had
been rifled while 10 the mails.
In calling this fraud to Director
Rathbone's attention, Miss Barton adj
dressed him the following letter:
