Justice Brewer on The Jury System.

Among lawyers particularly
and laymen quite generally, the
utterances of Justice Brewer of
the United States supreme court
in an address before the students
of Yale university on the abuses
of the jury system are attracting
much attention. GAS at present
administered" the eminent jur-
ist declares, ''it islittle less than
a relic of q semi barbarous age"
Continuing, Justice Brewer says !:
The juror is treated little better
than a criminal. He is locked up at
night and is given little more pay
than a day laborer. He is compelled
to listen to the wrangle Of lawyers.
] hope that the time will come when
the Juror will be treated like man,
when he will receive the pay OF a
business man. I also hope that the
present system of conviction will
give way to one in which the concur
renee of a reasonable number of ju-
rors shall determine the verdict.
The Justice might have gone
further and shown up the dis
reputable practices of certain
lawyers who make ita, business of
"packing" juries and who are

following figures are pertinent,

the month of February, 1901, as
compared with the same month
In 1900. Here is the output:
February 1900. ... 49, ,24S Tons.
February 1901 .. II, ,524
Excess 1901 over 1900 2,27e Tons.
In Darlington the railroad rec

month Of February.
This looks like strike.
The output Of the st. Bernard
Goal Company in February, 1901,

OSSIFlED WOMAN DEAD.
Stran, Case OF an indiana Woman Which
Attracted Wide Notice.

RICHMOND, IND, March TO-
Mrs. Mary Black, of Clinton
county, whose affiiction with a
complicated attack Of Addison's
disease, known as ossification,
has attracted the wide attention
of medical men and scientists for
eighteen months, is dead. The
progress of the disease continued
up to the time of her death. She
became perfectly helpless, the
flesh hardening until her whole
body was as rigid us stone, and
took on II marble-like appear

also affected the entire inner

color before death. For weeks

way restores the functions of every

If it is the stomach that is out of OF

storing the mucous membrane of the
stomach.
If the nerves tingle, if the brain is
tired, if the strength is tagging and
the circulation of blood weakened Try
iabby mucous membranes of the dj-
gestive organs, Peruna reaches the
spot at once by giving to these mem
branes the vitality and activity which
belongs to them.
The pelvic organs are also lined with
mucous membrane which in the female.
sex is especially liable to derangt-
ments. Peruna is an absolute specific
in these cases. The women everywhere
are praising it. No other remedy has,
ever received such unqualified praise
from such a multitude of women.

noticed that, raised in the bark of an
ancient apple tree, was the eXquisitely
modelled hand of child. Robertson
cut the growth off the apple tree and
took the bark from it. 1t was seen at
a glance that by taking penknife and
making the ends of the fingers to in
dicate nails, and also by cutting little
notches on the fingers at n point where
the knuckles would be, the growth
would be an exact reproduction of
child's hand. Mr.. Robertson did this,
and the little piece of wood was re-
garded as a curio by all who saw it. He
sold it to Mr.. j. 7. Luck, of Ashland,
who has had it in his possession ever
since.
With the exception of the carving at
the ends of the fingers and the little
notches at the knuckles, the accom-
panying cut shows the growth exact
ly as it was taken from the tree. The
lines in the back of the hand are all
natural. The shape of the fingers is
just as they were when the bark was
taken from the growth; the general
shape and appearance of the hand
have been unchanged, and on the in
side are all the lines natural to a hu-
man hand.
The little notch shown in the cut to
the side of the hand was point where
the thumb extended, but in taking the
bark off the growth, this was acci-
dentally cut off. The thumb, like the
fingers, was accurate in every partic-
ular.
Rumor has it that a little child was
once buried here, and that not long
after the Increment an apple tree
sprang up. This grew rapidly and
near the root of it appeared the hand,
which developed by degrees until it be-
came the size of child's hand and in
it's present shape.
Superstitious people think there is
some connection between the growth
of this hand on the apple tree and the
life of the child buried alongside OF it.
The fingers were all shaped exactly
like those of a child and have a proper
tionate length and size. The palm of
the hand is the same and the wrist al
most reproduction in appearance of
that of child.

There is more Catarrh in this section OF
the country than all other diseases put to-
gether, and until the last few years was
supposed to be incurable. For a great many
years doctors pronounced it local disease,
and prescribed local remedies, and by con.
stantly failing to cure with local treatment,
pronounced it incurable. Science has proven
catarrh to be constitutional disease, and
therefore requires constitutional treatment.

BRIGHT INDIAN GIRL.
Romantic History Which Has Made
Wah-ta-Wnso nm Accomplished
Young Lady.

Wah-ta-WaSo Will soon enter Har-
ward university. She is a full-blood-
ed daughter of the Pannawabskilt In
dian tribe of Maine. The early set
tiers found that name too difficult
to pronounce and corrupted it into
Penobscot. Wah-ta-Waso's Indian
name means Bright Eyes," and she
is said to be pretty enough and in
teligent enough to BE- worthy the
name. Like many of her tribe. she
has an English name by which she
is generally known in her dealings
with the whites, who find it more in
keeping with their ideas to call her
Lucy Nicola. She is about 20 years
OF age.
There is a romantic history back
of the movement to send Bright Eyes
to the Harvard annex. Montague
Chamberlain, for many years record
er of the Lawrence scientific school
of Harvard, has taken the Indian
girl under his protection because one
of her ancestors spared the life of
one of his forefathers. Mr. Cham
berlain is an ethnologist who has
made a speciality of the Indian tribes
of the east. He has studied their
histories, their languages and their
legends.
About the time of the French and
Indian war some of the Pannawabs-
kiks, who had wandered from Maine
to the st. Lawrence, joined the In
dians under the French and made
raid into English territory, includ-
ing an attack on Ticondcraga. With
the English force was a trader from
Boston named Chamberlain, who got
into a hand-to-hand conflict with a
powerful Penobscot Indian. In the
struggle they clinched, but the red
skin was the better wrestler and
threw the white. Chamberlain man
aged to regain his feet and start on
run, but the Indian overlook him,
and, having picked up a club, knocked
Chamberlain down before he could
use his knife. The strength and
courage of the white evidently won
the admiration of the Indian, for as
he stood over Chamberlain with club
in hand the Penobscot said in Eng
lish:
81 like you. Make you my son.
You good fighter"
Chamberlain was accordingly treat
ed as a prisoner and was taken to
the Indian village of st. Francis, on
the st. Lawrence river. While he
was permitted to roam freely about
the village, the Indians kept a watch
full eye on him, and he knew he was
a captive. He learned, however, to
like the Indian life and remained
three years. Then in a fit of home
sickness he decided to go home, but
the captor refused to let him depart.
Chamberlain had won the hearts of
many of the squaws by lending them
a helping hand in their drudgery,
and some of the maidens of the tribe
aided him in escaping under cover of
darkness. He afterward became a
man of consequence in Boston, and
the ethnologist of to-day is one of
his descendants.
The Penobscot Indians in time re-
turned to Maine and settled on tIe
island in the Penobscot river which
is still their home. Montague Cham
berlain, in the course of his investi-
cations discovered that Wah-ta-waso
