A Week Of eood PlaYs.

Miss Shirley and her excellent com.
pany closed a successful weeks en-
gagement at the Grand Opera House
here Saturday night This is Miss
Shirley's fifth appearance here, and
that she is thoroughly appreciated by
Salemites is attested by the crowded
houses that saw the curtain go up
each night of her engagement There
is general regret that the engagement
did not cover another week. The com
pany left yesterday morning for Alb.
erdeen, Washington. where they show
tonight, and after that they will make
the circuit OF Eastern Washington

SAYS LIFE WAS THREATENED
Such was Statement Made by
Witness in the Willis Trial.

After considerable delay in the Sc
lection of a jury in the Willis muir
der case the last juror was sworn in
yesterday afternoon about four
O'Clock. The witnesses, between
fifty and sixty in number, were then
sworn and put under rule.
Following is the personnel of the
jury that is to decide the fate of the
defendant one of the most impor
tant murder cases ever tried in Ellis
county:
j. A. Dearing, John Fleming, w.
F. Billups, II. J. Pipkin, A f.
Hickman, J. r. Rust, w. NJ. G.
pharriss, J f. Leigh, w. F. Sewell,
Nj. r. knight, J. T. Jackson, w. A.
Eothriek.
The first witness placed on the
stand by the state was Matilda Her
ring, the negress who was an eye
witness to part of the shooting. Her
testimony was very near the same
as that given in the habeas corpus
proceedings, the only difference be-
ing with reference TO the position of
Willis while he was doing the shoot
Ing. In the habeas corpus proceed
tngs she testified that she only saw
Willis occupying one position while
doing the shooting. Yesterday after
noon on cross examination the wit
ness said that after the defendant
had tired the fourth time with the
shotgun she saw him stoop over and
pick up a pistol with which he began
firing rapidly toward some object
which was apparently down at his
feet. When asked as TO why she
did not make this statement while
on the stand in the habeas corpus
trial she made the startling state
ment that ii was withheld because
Of threats made on her life by rela-
tives Of Wills. She said her reia-
tives in Ennis had sent her word
that relatives u the defendant had
threatened 10 Kill her II she told all
she knew concerning the shooting.
The attorneys for the defendant AT
once asked tor subpeonas for the
( parties whom she claimed had fnr-
nlshed her with Information. They
will be brought here and given an
opportunity 90 tell what they know
in regard 20 any threats having been
made.
On direct eNawipation the witness
testified in substance as follows:
/ l now live ln Ennis; last year
lived on Mr., Petty's farm three
miles from Ennis on the Pea Ridge
road; / know whore John Snipes and
Mr.. Shaw live; know where Buck
Whites place is; the house / lived
in was about l7j steps from the Pea

ports; they were close together;

HRApsT7EET's REVIEW.

New York, July 17.-Bradstreets tomor- row wiH say:
 We'll nigh perfect summer weather helps crops increases confidence in fall trade and stimulates retail and summer resort business. Lower prices for many staples are really an raging de- velopment, because favorable to a wider and freer use of products heretofore im- practicable under past abnormal condi- tions. Six months railway earnings re- turns-two-thirds of the countrys mile- age represented-show a gain of over I3 per cent over the best ever recorded. while roads thus far reporting for the first week of July show a gain of nearly 16 per cent These figures confirm the claim that present business is the larg- est ever handled for midsummer period.
 The salient features in trade reports this week are the better tone of trade advices from the southwest, where the feeling grows that a. large businss will be done. The unsatisfactory outlook for immediate and future supplies or cotton limits activity in cotton manufacturing at the east. short time being the rule at all the leading centers; but the wool market is stronger.
 Activity in Anthracite.
 Unprecedented activity is noted in the anthracite coal trade Final returns of foreign trade point to the largest aggre- gate on record due. however to 13 per cent gain in imports. because exports fell off per cent from last year and per cent from the record of 1901
 The iron trade is quiet enough on the surface, but production and consumption are alike enornfous. though pressure of the latter tends to ease quotations for iron and steel. Western markets note re- ductions in pig iron and billets with a large business cone at the concessions. and southern iron has been cut with out evolxing much new business. Tin and copper are weak and lower.
 Labor troubles in textile lines at Phila- delphia and in building in New York are a bar to activity in all lines affected
 Hides and leather are rather weak at the east, but eastern shoe shipments are far in excess of last year.
 Business failures in the United States for the week ending with July 16 number 17S against 154 last week, and IA in the like week of 1902. In Canada for the week 1S failures were reported against 20 last week.

strange Uses For Mirrorn.

The celebrated Beau Brummel dur
ing the first years Of his exile, while
yet his fame as dandy was pre-emi-
nent, had the ceiling OF his bedroom
covered with mirrors so that even while
at rest he could study elegance and as
sumo a graceful pose. For such pur-
pose glass ceiling is, however, not
unique. and the notorious Duchess OF
Cleveland had such another construct,
ed to crafty her vanity
For far different reason certain
Yorkshire gentleman OF the last cen
fury had his ceiling paneled with mir
rors. Ardently devoted to the sport of
cockfghting. he continued to the last
to enjoy his fayorite pastime and even
when ON his deathbed his room was the
scene Of many an exciting fight, which,
lying on his back, he saw reflected In
the glass overhead.
