TIVE PATENT RECORD. Baltimore, Mo.

The uncertainty of what a jury will
40 or will not do was forcibly lllustrat-
ed in the circuit court in Iowa last
week in the trial ofa couple of whiskcy
cases. The same witness was used in
both cases and testified to exactly the
same facts in each instancc-that he
bought and paid for and drank the
liquor. The purchases were made
under precisely the same circum-
stances, not varying an iota in any
particular. The jury fined the dcfcn-
dant 900 and costs in the one case and
acquitted him i'm the other.
