Ia house simple in appearance but
imposing in size Jefferson Davis lived
as President of the Southern Confed-
eracy, and that mansion is to. day one
Of the most notable objects in Rich
mond, tho capital of the Confed crate
States. and has beaome known far and
vide as the ''White House of the
Confederacy." Situated on Shocked
hill, it ovsrlooks q great expanse Of
country, and from the broad porches
that surround it the winding river
James can be seen FOR miles.
While the home Of Jefferson Davis
is known to every Southerner, nut
little has been written Of that noble
band Of women who have converted it
to its present appropriate uses-a mu-
scum wherein tte hallowed relics OF
the, past may be preserved from gen.
Grafton to generation, and the memo
ries of that heroic struggle for liberty
and home forever kept alive.
The CITY Of Richmond purchased
.his property e 1891, sc! apoa &c
gaining possession Of it from the Fed.
eral government in 1874, converted
the mansion into school. Tho MIS-
toric mansion served this purpose for
many years, it being held fitting that
the hearts and minds of Southern
children should be trained and taught
within It's hallowed walls.
AS time rolled on, however, the wo.
men Of the South talked about the
need Of Confederate museum. They
banded together, and after long and
patient work raised sufficient money
to secure possession OF. the building.
Not a change in It's architecture was
made, but steps were promptly taken
to render it as nearly fissproof as pos.
siblea and to make it slightly in ap-
pearance. The museum was formally
opened in 1895, and since that time
the most valuable relics Of every de.
scription have been secured.
Soau Vi the m.st important reiics
are in tbs Tennessee room, but all the
Southern States arc represented. Tc
those who participated in the fou,
years struggle and are familiar with
the happenings Of those strenuous
days list Of the relics embraced
within the walls Of this historic man
sion will prove Of intense interest, re-
calling, as they do, men once foremost

Petty Larceny.

The jury in the Johnson case brough,
in its verdict, "guilty of petty larceny
This is case in which two thugs, ole
fashioned "black legs" entced new
conner, German boy into a den such a.
has been permitted to run in Hutchin
son, drugged, sandbagged and robbed
him leaving him almost dead on the
floor. Now after several days trial one
is found guilty of petty larceny This is
enough to disgust the average either
who has the least respect for law and
and common decency. If the parties
were guilty at all they were guilty of rob-
berry in its worst form, with conspiracy,
assault and should have gone to the pen
itentlary for at least ten years, But
when we heard how the jury was Sc.
lected and what it took to disqualify a
Juror, we wonder that there was any
conviction at ALL or in short that any
criminal can be convicted in our courts.
1t seems that this party was shown in
the preliminary trial to be gambler,
and no juror who was prejudiced against
gambling or gamblers was considered
to be a competent juror. Now gam
bling is a'penal offence according to our
statutes, so no man opposed to law
breaking or law breakers could sit on
that jury. No man not prejudced
against law breakers is good citizen
and care not who he is You may use
any term you please but it means the
same. Then we have reached the stage
in our courts Of Justice, that good citi-
zen, man prejudced against crime and
criminals, incompetent to sit in Grim.
inal case as Juror Must we have Grim
lnas to try criminals? This is the re-
suit finally reached and when a man has
been proven to be a law breaker in some
lower court, must have Jury unpre.
JUDGED against law breaking to try him?
Why do we swear men to obey the con.
stitution and the laws and then throw
them off jury because they are in favor
OF compliance with that oath? What
are our courts for? To try case ac-
cording to the law or independent of the
law? In this latter case we must have a
jury that think just as much of the law
breaker as of the law abiding citizen.
And when time comes that a man is an
incompetent juror because he is prejud-
iced against law breaking and law break
ers, if you please. Then let US
dispense wit jury entirely,
because crime will 90 unpunished and
the criminal class will be the gentlemen
OF the age and the poor dupe that prides
himself in his good citizen garb will have
the extreme satisfaction of paying taxes
to keep up courts whose business will be
TO license crime. Who cannot see that
crime is on the increase all over the
country, and who cannot see that It is
almost an impossibilty to convict
criminal for crime Of any magnitude?
