LOS JURADOS REPUBLI(ANOS


hubo acuerdo entire elIos, por 10
que ell juez de derecho declare di-
suelto ell jurado.
Y ese mismo jurado es ell que
ha absuelto al guardia Girona acu-
sado del asesinato de Octavio Re-
yes, sin que hubiese prueba algu-
ma que le favoreciese.
V6ase ahora otro reverse de la
medalla.
Ante la Corte de Distrito de
San Juan, Sc VIC aver ell jllicio por
jurado en- La causa seguida al c0ja
republican, Eustasio Ocacio por
ell asesinato de Jose Dolores Viz
carrondo, obrero federal, hecho
que ocurri0 en- La noche del 81 de
Octubre IlltimO en- ell pueblo de La
Carolina.
Ell acusado confeso haber ma
tado q Vizcarrondo porque este le
habfa atacado. Los testigos de
cargo tO1Os manifestation que Oca-
sio disparo contra VizcarrOndO sin
haber mediado provocacion por
parte de este.
Los testigos de La defensa de-
clarOn tOGlOs en- desacuerdO, 1ncu-
rriendo en- grandes contradiciones;
unOs decian que VizcarrOndO ha-
'bia disparadO contra OcasiO estan.
do este metido en- TN coche; otrOs
declararon que le dispar0 fuera
del coche; otros dicen que Vizca-
rrondo no disparo sino que provo
c0 a Ocasio mandandolO apear del
coche; otrOs afrman que no medic
ninguna clase de palabras entire
ambos; por 1ltimo, para demos
trar que toda esa prueba era falsa,
hubO testigo que Sc dijo vecino de
La Carolina Y cOnfeso no saber ell
nOmbre de La calle en- que viva.
De La prueba, pues, resulto
plenamente prObadO que Ocas1o
mato q mansalva y sin provocacion
& Jose VizcarrondO.
FL jurado, compuesto, como ell
de HumacaO, en- su tOtalldad de
republicanOs, Sc RETRO a deliberar
V 4 los pocos minutes dicto we're
dicto de ABsoLUCI6N, quedandO en-
libertad el matador de Vizcarron-
do.
Asf es como vienen practican-
do iusticia esos jurados republica-
nos que avergt1enzan al pals.
Tanto en- ese juicio como en- ell
del guardia Girona, esos jurados
han demostrado que para ellos ell
asesinato no constituye delito
siernpre que Sc realize en- la perso-
na de un federal.
Sc hace, pues, necesario que el
honorable Attorney ordene una
pronta modification de La lista de
jurados, pues en- casi todos los pue-
bios los que fguran como tales ju.
radios es gente insolvente, que fra
terniza con los criminales. DE 10
contrario mas val1a, para prestigio
de la ley y en- honor a la justicia,
suprimir esa institution, que con
los elementos con que esta hoy
constitufda, no es otra cosa que
una prolongacion de La MatFd.

New Permit Will Be Issued.

The Potomac Electric Power Company re-
Gently returned to the Commissioners a per-
nit granted them to make third direct
connection from the power house at 14th
and 3 streets to the sewer in street for
the purpose of discharging waste water
used In the condensation of steam. The
permit was issued with certain restrictions
and with the provision that when the new
system of sewage disposal for the entire
District was completed the connections
would have to be discontinued and a direct
discharge conduit be built by the company
to the river. The company requested that
the permit be issued without restrictions
on the same basis the first two connec-
tiOns that were made with the sewer.
Capt. Chester Harding, acting Engineer
Commissioner, has recommended that the
company be informed the restrictions are
necessary to the extent to which they ap-
piled in the original permits. a new permit
will be issued, therefore, with the statement
that it gives the company no right of main
tenance and is revocable at any time by
the Commissioners at six months notice.

Dragons.

From the thicngo News.
Dragons were important animals in an
cient and mediaevaI natural history. Until
comparatively recent time no scientist ever
thought of questioning the existence of this
most formidable of beasts. The annals of
Winchester for 1177 gravely state that ''in
this year dragons We're seen of many in
England" Gesner, professor of natural his
tory at Zurich gives a detailed description
History of Serpents and Dragons pub
lished in 1910 devotes fifty pages to the
monster a good specimen of a dragon
would seem to have been beast about
the size OF a sheep. incased In coat of
scales which shone like silver. Its back
was serrated like a saw. 1t possessed a
long tall a pair of batlike wings. four
heavily clawed feet, WOlVine head the
laws Of which were armed with very for
mida BILE teeth The tongue was barbed and
fire and fury issued from the monster 8
mouth and the head bore a crest. Dragons
were the most wicked and vindictiVe of
creatures They seem always to have been
in a towering rage and spent the greater
portion of their time in rushing up and
down the earth destroying everything that
came In their path. The origin Of dragons
was a disputed point among medieval nat
uralists Some maintained that these ami
mails were generated by the heat OF India
others were of opinion that the volcanoes
OF Ethiopia used to belch forth the mon
sters One scientist, John Leo by name,
declared the dragon to be a hybrid. cross

Fallacies as to Art Schools.


The fallacy of the art school is not essen
TALLY different from the fallacy of other
professional schools, only the public for
some reason yet unexplained. unless
sheer ignorance be the matter, expects that
the art school will turn out artists.
Do not know that theological semina-
ries habitually fail to graduate theologians
and good preachers? Is 1t not common
place that medical schools do not produce
physicians? They give degrees which mean
that certain quantum Of study has gone
to the education of the youth who attains
that dignity. But we all are aware that
1t is an empty dignity which merely pro-
tects the world from practitioners who are
absolutely without any education at all.
Owing to the complexity of modern life
the art school is a necessity which should
be neither overrated nor scorned We over
rate it if we imagine that 1t can form an
artist, when all it can do Is to furnish
certain standard of technical Skill We
scorn 1t when we point to the poor re-
suits of schools attached to a corps of ar
lists called an Academy and draw the in
ference that such places of education do
more harm than good. There is more
harm in getting a good technique In an art
school than there is for medical student
to learn deftness of hand in surgery and
a range of accumulated experience in med
les when he attends school for his par
ticular profession.

Many Books for the Blind.

from tRe Phlladelphia Press.
Il went into the free library the other
day. said the observant citizen, land wan
dered into the department for the blind.
was amazed to find the number of works it
contained and some investigation gave me
lot of very interesting information.
II find that there are about 100000 blind
persons in the United States and that the
printing of books for them has reached sucr
proportions that bill was introduced intS
Congress few months ago providing that
these works shall go free through the mails
More than that. 1 learn that the govern
ment has already made an attempt to hell
this class by annually giving the interest Oh
$250,O00 to the American Printing House
for the Blind at Louisville. Ky. I have seer
a statement by Mr. Boutell of Illinois. IL
which he says that this yearly sum of So.
900 is used for printing these books and dis
tributing them among thirty-twO public
and five private schools for the blind. The
principals Of these schools form a commit
tee which decides what works shall be pub
lished.
"A dictionary makes eighteen volumes
and costs $50; Bible, eleven volumes fol
81, and an English grammar sells for $40
Il find also that there are three weeklies
and one monthly paper for the blind"

DIFFERENCE OF OPINION.
Charge That Electric Lights Were Ex-
tinguished Before Daylight.

On the occa sion Of the recent early morn
ing inspection of the street cleaning work
done by the contract system, including the
flushing of the downtown thoroughfares.
when Commissioner Henry l.. West and
Supt. Stutler of the street cleaning de-
partment went over the territory, it was
found the work was not we'll done at
point on Pennsylvania avenue between
9th and 10th streets. Superintendent Slut
Ter asked of his inspectors about the
matter, and the latter reported that the
reason for the defective work was the fact
that the electric lights We're eXtinguished
while the flushing gang was at work and
before it was day.
The statement to the lights being ex-
tinguished has called forth a report from
Mr.. Thomas ]. Fisher inspector Of cleo
trio lighting, who forwards to the Com
missoners letter from the Potomac Elec
trio Power Company in which 1t is stated
the lights in question We're not extingush-
ed until about 4:25 am, which Mr.. Fisher
declares is about twenty-five minutes after
daybreak.
There were no reports from the police -
says Mr.. Fisher, that these lights were
out at any time before the eXtinguishing
hour, and they were noted lighted at 3:45
o'clock. Also at 1890 a. one of our in
spectors was over that route and noticed
the flushing gang on the avenue between
18th and 14th streets, leaving three hours
and fifty-five minutes to flush from 18th
to 9th streets. four squares.
II am fully satisfied that the lights were
going and that it was fully daybreak be-
fore they We're turned off The statement
Is unjust and seems effort to throw the
blame of poor work on condition which
did not exist. l merely make this state
ment in justice to the electric light COM
pany and this department for that special
night. several persons have criticised
the fact that lights were extinguished be-
fore day, which is not a fact"
