The lodge room and all the club
rooms of Akron lodge were prettily
decorated, for Sundays services,
with strings of smilax, flowers, etc,
and huge American flag hung at the
back of the stage. The auditorium
was filed, before the time of the open
ing of the exercises by hundreds Of
silent people, each with the grief that
came of close friendship or casual
acquaintance with one of those for
whom the services were held. At 2:30
the strains of the overture "Tannr

marked the opening Of the exercises,

briefly the purpose Of the gathering

Mrs. II. M. Wanamaker, assisted by
Mr.. Charles Caskey, who performed
the violin obligato, sang the angelo

Sieber delivered the address in mem
ory of the late n. II. Steiner, telling
the story of his life work, his struggles
and their rewards, his efforts to help
his fellowmen and the character that
made him always great while not
intending to be called great"
He was lover of the home, and Of
homes" said Mr.. Seber. 1T was this
great love for the welfare of his fell
lOwmen that induced him to be a
builder and maker of homes. 1t was
the same principle that made him
prominent in the affairs Of the various
orders of which he was member.

One day in London tobacconist's

Sandow smiled and took 1t between

The strong man pressed the tip Of

but Mr.. Rockwell was taken sudden
ly Ill, and Mayor Russell volunteered
to deliver the address. The speaker
had known DR.. Wilson intimately, and
his personal sorrow in the loss of a
friend, was apparent in the address
in which he described the virtues and
the life Of DR.. Wilson.
Hon. ]. ]. Sullivan, of Warren, who
has been heard before by Akron au-
diences, made the principal address Of
the day. Eloquence, poetry, pathos
and metaphor combined to charm and
hold his audience, as he told Of the
purpose of this gathering, and of the
aims and the great principles advo-
Gated and followed by the fraternity.
"All over the United States" said
Mr.. Sullivan, in part, "Elks are met
as we are here, to mourn for those
who have gone before, to write their
faults as on the sands, and to treasure
their virtues in the storehouses Of
memory.
Friendship is one of the great prin-
ciples of our craft. Kind words and
kind deeds are encouraged. The So
cal side of the fraternity is one that
in my opinion, has been responsible
to a large degree to the success of
the order. Members bring their fami-
lies and their friends to this place, and
they are happy.
"There are those who say that the
happiness but precedes sorrow that
laughter goes before a moan, but hap
pines, makes sorrow sweeter, and
moan is but sweet foil to laugh
ter.

by all who knew him.
George A. Long, son OF the late J..
A. Long, was another. Though his
life was short, 1t was crowded full Of
action. He had been with the army
in the Philippines, and In the memora-
BILE march to Pekin, and 1t was short

Noah r. Steiner, another of those
for whom the Elks mourned, Sunday,
was well known to nearly every man,
woman and child In Summit county.
He was a dynamic force In the up
building Of Akron's homes and institu-
tions, and in his death, every citizen
has lost a friend.
George w. Henneberger, the news
Of whose recent and unexpected death
has scarcely grown cold, was the
fourth and last of those for whom
the services were held. Though born
at Marshallville, he was distinctively
an Akron boy, and his work and his
successes were watched closely by
hosts of friends here. His tireless
energy and unfailing good humor were
his distinctive characteristics. Add

TIL trial of a civil suit which had occu-
pied one of the local courts several days
ended on Thursday in a disagreement of
the jury after being out twenty-four hours.
a former trial of the same case a year
ago ended the same way. In both trials
it was the opinion of disinterested persons
that the evidence justified a prompt and
definite verdict and that such would have
been the result with a jury of intelligent.
of the jury to agree is attributed mainly
to the presence upon 1t OF several so-called
professional jurymen." There is no more
despicable class of citizens than those re-
ferred to by this ~appellation. which, by
the way. is happily descriptive. The pro-
fessional juryman is a man who. for want
Of regular occupation or because he is too
lazy TO work. frequents courtrooms day
after day while court is in session, culti-
waiting friendly relations with the sheriff
or deputy and keeping himself constantly
in evidence as a handy person to fill a va
cancy on a jury. The law provides that
in all cases where a traverse jury has not
Dttu llilpdlcAcQ VI II hOt pItStHl WHEN
needed the court shall order the sheriff
Ito summon a jury from the bystanders or
citizens of the county" The professional
juryman makes ii his business TO be among
the bystanders, and he always has his
lightning rod up. The law prohibits the
selection as a talesman Of any person who
has served as a juror in any court of the
county during the year Immediately proceed
ing such selection. This was intended to
bar professional jurors. but 1t does not.
If the sheriff or deputy does not obligingly
ignore the provision the professionals take
turns and time one another year after
year. BY hook or by crook they manage 10
get in their work. which is to hold down
chairs in the jury box and nurse litigation
rather than 10 dispense justice or end law
suits. Being case-hardened by experience
and too lazy to sift or weigh evidence they
would rather let a verdict so by default
or content themselves with a disagreement
than take the trouble of trying to arrive
at a just verdict. They are a positive draw
back to the administration OF justice and
should not be allowed in or about any
courtroom. Persons who are so unfortu-
nate as 10 have TO go TO law would much
better trust 10 a decision by a just Judge
than have their cases 40 TO juries com
posed in part of professionals. a judge
knows what justice is and has a reputa-
ton TO maintain. while the professional
juryman neither knows what he ought 10
do nor cares what he does. so that he gets
paid for as many days service as possible. 2

The annual street-railway riot falls On
Albany. ". Y, this year. Last year 1t was
in St. Louis and continued a long time.
The year before Cleveland. o.. was the
seat Of the riot. No one can tell in what
State and city it will occur next. The
street-railway strike is different from any
other. for the reason that. as cities are
now built largely of suburbs. the street.
railway is as much a public necessity as
public lighting and next 10 a public supply
q water. 1t is now regarded as a public
street railway and a few hundred of their
employees may settle their differences a
whole system of lines is tied up. and tens
OF thousands of people who have employ
ments in the heart of a city or in factories
at one side are prevented from getting to
their labor. Such a suspension means the
injury of tens of thousands that a few hum
dreds may fight it out. If there is a strike
in a factory it is only necessary to protect
the property. Only the employer and en-
Iloye and a few men who deal with them
will suffer. Yet against this assumption
President Mitchell. of the coal miners or
ganization. recently remarked in effect that
voice about a strike.
The attempt to tie up a street railway
Is an attempt to destroy. for the time be-
ing, a public utility. causing loss and SUI
fering to thousands. Consequently, when
a company and its employees cannot agree
the State or city should have authority to,
step in and operate the street-railway while
a board of arbitrators selected by some
tribunal shall hear the matter I'm dispute
and make a decision which shall have the
force of law. If the employees who would
strike desire TO hold their places while the
case is being heard, let them do so; but,
If they do not, they must not modest those
who take their places. When the decision
shall be rendered both parties shall adhere
to 1.-THE employees at least to the extent
that they will not interfere with the op-
Grating of a public utility.
Both sides will object to this plan of
adjustment = the corporation because the
State or people takes control of it's bust
ness, and the employees because the people
VII nOl permit IL minority 10 uSuIp the
privileges of the many. The corporation
insists that the State shall take it's side in
the event of a tie-up. 1t is better to take
the side of the many and operate the cars
while the dispute is being settled. 1t is
time that such disputes be settled without
riots and the military. 1t is time that
public utilities be not INSTRUCTED because
those operating them cannot agree.
