JURORS HAD TO SERVE.
Judge Seabrook Exceedingly Chary
About Granting Excuses.

About training ENcuses.
Jurymen regularly drawn on the
panels of the petit jury Of the Superior
Court are having a rather unusual
amount of difficulty in securing ex-
cuses from serving. Indeed, their lack
of success in this matter is at once
pathetic to them and humorously sat
isfactory to other people.
The more they represent to the
court their standing in the community
and the Importance of the business
duties they are required to perform,
the more eagerly does Judge Sealbrook
insist they are just the sort of men
he wants. He tells them that they can
have no duties more. sacred and i'm
portant than that they have been sum
moned to discharge, in the enfrceo-
ment of the laws of their state. That
they are entrusted with other impor-
tant duties is evidence to his mind that
they are peculiarly qualified to act as
Jurors. and he insists that they serve.
Alderman Frank F. Jones Is one OF
the latest unfortunates. The alder
man was summoned to appear and
serve as juryman on Thursday morn
ing, but for some reason he neglected
to appear There were others In the
same boat. and the clerk was directed
to issue an attachment and the sheriff
to serve it.
Alderman Jones was the only one of
the absentees with whom the officers
of the court managed to show up, and
there was a somewhat extended dia-
logue between him and Judge Sea-
brooke 1t ended. however, in the
court declining to accept the proffered
explanation of the delinquent juror and
ipctructin1 the sheriff Ia collect from
him the legal fee for the service of
he attachment. This is 81. and though
1t has not yet beeen collected, Chief
Deputy Sweeny said yesterday the mat
ter still fingered in his memory and
| that the collection would be made.

WOMAN GUILTY; MAN NOT.
Judge Norwood Disposes of Weekly
Criminal Budget of City Court.

Judge Norwood held the weekly GRIM
inal session of the City Court vester-
day morning. There appeared before
him for trial the usual motley array
of misdemeanor offenders, charged
with everything from ~vagrancy to lar
ceny and aggravated assault.
Possibly the most interesting OF the
cases were those against j. o. zIt-
trouer and Rebecca Byrd, the former
a white man, the latter negro wo-
man. 1t was alleged by the man that
he had been assaulted by the woman,
and by the woman that she had been
attacked and beaten by the man. Only
one thing was agreed upon on~both
sides, and that was that there had
been a fight. On this point there was
no dispute, either between the parties
or among the witnesses to the verbal
and physical encounter.
1t appeared in evidence that lit
trouer is a collector for an instalment
furniture house, who had gone to the
place where the woman lived to col
lect bill. Upon his appearance and
statement of his mission the woman
had greeted him with an outburst of
splendid profanity impossible OF de-
scription, which she kept up until he
retorted with a blow. Then they mixed
it up in lively style. the encounter. it
is said being greatly superior in point
of interest to any of the more formal
and regular bouts that have lately
been pulled off in the city.
In brief this was the evidence Judge
Norwood was called upon to consider,
and to him it seemed that the man
was guiltless, if not blameless, while
the profane performances of the wo-
man, justifying in the eyes of the law
a moderate battery, had precipitated
the conflict that ensued. Zittrouer was
therefore given his liberty. while the
woman was found guilty and given
her choice between the payment of a
fine of $25 and costs and serving
twelve months on the changing of the
county. Some of her friends managed
to make UP. the money and the fine
and costs were paid.
There were a. number of other
cases, among them being that of Dan
Washington, charged with larceny of
rope of the value of $35- from w. G..
Barnwell. Judge Norwood found the
defendant guilty and sentenced him to
pay a fine of 800 and all costs of the
prosecution or serve twelve months on
the public works. Three Migrants, Joe
Stevens, P. T. Bowen and John Green,
were all found guilty and Judge Nor
wood sentenced the two former to
terms of six months on the gang,
doubling the term of imprisonment in
the case of Green.

before he got to Habersham street
Detective Wall who was on his way
10 headquarters from dinner, ran across
the street and the prisoner was turned
over to him by Patrolman Miller. The
negro was badly winded, but protest
ed that he had nothing. He was rec
ognized by the detective as a smooth
thief who has only recently completed
term on the chaingang.
Davis was arrested about a year ago
by Detectives Murphy and Wall for
stealing half dozen overcoats from
the Metropolitan Clothing Company.
When searched at tho police station
house by the detectives on that oc-
cssion the negro held an apple fast in
his hand and aroused the suspicious of
the officers. An Inspection of the apple
was following by the discovery of sew
eral pawn tickets. The negro had
stuck a hole in the apple with his
finger and pushed the tickets in. while
the detectives were going through his
clothing Davis will be given a pre-
liminary examination by Recorder My

DENIES ALL NEGLIGENCE.
summers Owner Says Fault for Col
IIsion Was with Neptune.

The answer of Frederick w. Sumner.
owner of the British schooner Ethel B.
Sumner. to the libel instituted against
that vessel by the Neptune Towing
Company of Brunswick, was filed in
the United States District Court on
yesterday. All allegations of negli-
gence made by the libellant are de-
MED.
The libel is based upon injuries alleg-
ed to have been sustained by the tug
Neptune in a collision with the Sum-
ner, which il was charged was due to
the careless and incompetent handling
of the latter vessel. This allegation is
specifically denied in the answer of the
owner of the Sumner, and it is alleged
on the contrary that the negligence
and carelessness were on the part of
the crew of the Neptune, to whom re-
sponsibility for the occurrence of the
collision is imputed.
The answer of the owner is filed in
his behalf by the master of the Sum-
ner, the owner himself being a resident
of the town of Moncton, province OF
New Brunswick, Canada.

the case. The forecast is for partly

w. w. williams, Collector. Has
MysteriousIy Disappeared.
w w. Williams of No. as East Broad
street, a collector, has been missing
from his nome since Nov. rs and his
family fear that he is dead. His dis
appearance was reported at police
headquarters, but the officers have
been unable to find any trace Of the
missing man.
Williams is an uncle of Patrolman
r. w. Williams and is native of
South Carolina. He is about 60 years
of age ard has wife and three chill
dren The last seen Of the man was
on Tuesday of last week. He went
home II dinner. and ate a hearty meal
with his family. Mr.. williams did not
appear very much worried, although
he had been in somewhat desponu-
ent mood for several days.
He left home after dinner and when
he dill not return for supper his wife
became worried. She sat up until a
late hour waiting for her husband -
return. Mr.. Williams did not put in an
appearance and his wife thought that
he might have suddenly made up his
mind 10 go to South Carolina on
river boat that left that afternoon.
Upon The return of the boat it was
ascertained that Mr.. Williams had not
taken passage on the trip to his own
state.
Then it was that the police were ask
ed to try and locate the missing man.
Mr.. Williams was not satisfied with his
position and had been rather despond-
ent. His family for this reason fear
that he may have done violence to
himself. or that he might have wan
dered away in fit of temporary aber-
ration. His accounts with the furni-
ture house by which he was employed
are straight and murder for the pur-
pose of robbery, or for any other pur-
pose. is not considered. The prolonged
absence of her husband has caused
Mrs Williams much suffering.
