an antiQuary who was looked up to and
respected for his knowledge of ancient
history and ruins, and each evening
there was a gathering in the parlors of
the hotel to hear him give a sort of
lecture on what he had seen during the
day. Professor Hampstead, as he was
named, had been charged to pick up all
the old Greek manuscripts to be had
for money, and it was his inquiries for
such documents that doubtless led to
our undoing. One day a man named

tance. This undoubtedly made the por-
ter frantic for he on Sunday night went
into the room where the girl and her
new lover were and drew revolver and
shot both, killing the man and nroftally
woundng the woman who is still alive
The negro then reached the street, but
fearing he would be caught and mobbed
had not gone far before he deliberately
blew his own brains out.

A juror empaneled to try case is eau
toned by the judge not to talk about the
case nor permit any person to talk to
him about the case on trial. Before be-
ing permitted to sit as a juror he is re-
quired to state under oath that he knows
none of the material facts, and has no
opinion. The violation of the injunc-
ton by a juror would subject him to
contempt proceedings and vitiate the
verdict. How about the court? The
law persumes he has honor enough and
integrity enough to observe the same
rules required of the jury. No Judge
with proper appreciation of the dig
nifty of his high Office will permit liti-
gants or friends to leg him around for a
decision. or will inform him in advance
as 20 his rights in any matter before
him. This in our opinion is one of the
tests of judicial fitness. This is gen.
eral rule and If you see the application

that if his record was actually known
the votes received by him would be few.
The CHRONICLE always tries to publish
the truth. The article contained state

the judge is that some lawyer wrote it.
1t was taken from the record and MCGEE

not quite every voter in the circuit for
