GIBSON CASE ON TRIAL
Considerable Difficulty Expert
enced in Securing Jury.

The Gibson murder case was taken
up by the circuit court on Thursday,
and the week has been spent in the
effort to secure jury. The case is
so we'll known, having been trie d
twice already in this court, that it was
a most difficult matter to find l2 men
who have not decided opinions of
some sort concerning the case. Out
Of the regular panel, but one juror
was secured, p. p. Payne a special
venire Of 30 was then brought in,
mainly citizens from the south end
of the county. Out Of this number,
eight jurors were secured; A. V.
Schmidt. Frank Carroll, d. II. Wi
mer, Clarence Sawyer, Frank Thomp-
son, NJ ]. Parham, Joseph Seyferth,
and @. w. McGee. In the next levy
of 10 names, the proportion failed to
obtain, and only one juror, 4. W.
Conway, was secured, making to-
tai of 10. The court went to work on
Wednesday afternoon to sift, if pos
sible the remaining two jurors from
another levy.
Geo +. Payne and II. l.. Reed
were accepted, completing the jury.
The attorneys made the opening
statements Wednesday afternoon.

tumn leaves, the latter especially be-
ing surprisingly beautiful ornate
feature. \ large number of the
friends of Mr., and Mrs. Gault were
in attendance,
a very pleasant program was given
The opening number was male
quartet by Messrs Cramer, Kinney,
Cramer and Voorhies. Mrs. Gault

dered, tho appreciation of which was
quickened by the thought that it was
among the last which the people of this
city will be privileged to hear from
this popular singer for some time to
come. Brief, but earnest and impress.
sive addresses were given by X. l..
Coe, Rev. W. G.. Connell and II. G.

piled to the addresses, expressing ear
nestly their appreciation of the cor
dial feeling toward them which was
so manifest by their friends.

waters were served and the remainder
OF the evening was pleasantly spent
in social converse. Mr.. and Mrs.
Gault received many expressions of
regret at their departure and of good
wishes for their happiness and pros.
perity, wherever they may be.
Mr.. and Mrs. j. l.. Gault have
Doen residents OF Grants Pass some
what less than two years and in that
time they have gained largo circle
OF very warm friends, by whom
their departure is very keenly regret
ted. In musical circles especially,
Mrs. Gault's absence will be keenly
felt, as she is one of the most capable
and pleasing soprano soloists in
Southern Oregon and is thoroughly
popular wherever her voice has been
heard MIR. Gault will be kindly
remembered in this city by all his
acquaintances and his never failing
courtesy in his business capacity
while in the Office Of the $. p. ID. &
l.. Co., has gained him the esteem of
all who have come in contact with
him.
