THE INTELLIGENT JUROR.
One Who Had to Inquire the Meaning
of 'flaintiff" and ODE
PENDANT,

1t is a common and natural practice of
lawyers in addressing jury to single out
one member who seems to them the most
Intelligent, and to deliver their appeals to
him. They usually feel that if they can
impress him, his influence will be valuable
in its effect upon the other members If
they make mistake they rarely discover
it, says the New York Sun But the
stenographer of one division of the supreme
court tells all incident of mistake that
was found out.
All the testimony IN a case had been
taken, the lawyers for both sides had
summed up, and the Judge had charged the
jury, when up rose the intelligent juror
whom both counsel had singled out as the
recipient of their imprisoned appeals. He
wanted the court to give him some in
formation.
II have been bothered good deal" said
the juror, about two words the lawyers
use here all the time"
''What are they" asked the court, ex-
pecting. to be called upon to expound res
inter altos acta or fortiori, or some other
dead terms
"Why, plaintiff and defendant" said
the juror. Il don't just know what they
mean.

An Old Lady's Discovery.

Garrett, Ark, May l8th-For IS years
Mrs. Mary Dunlop Of this place has sui
fered with Kidney trouble, which was so
bad at times that it made her life burden.
She tried much medicine and many treat
ments, but got no better.
At last, however, Mrs. Dunlop claims to
have found perfect remedy, and she is SO
pleased at the wonderful cure she herself
has received, that she is telling all her
friends and praising the medicine to every
one she meets.
The name of this medicine is Dodd's Kid
ney Pills, and it has done wonderful work
for Mrs. Dunlop.
Everybody is talking about it, and some
people are claiming to have been cured of
Rheumatism by it.
A Mrs. Garrett who lives in Brazils, this
state, was at the point of death with some
Cerebro-Spinal trouble, and was saved by
Dodd's Kidney Pills.
1t is certain that no other medicine ever
introduced here has done SO much good in
such a short time.

Business Interests Alarmed.

Business interests of the city have
become alarmed at the constant strikes
and Ia Dor controversies that have
marked the last three months, and are
refusing to enlarge their local plants,
as many of them planned to do year
ago. This new condition was brought
prominently before Chicago's labor
leaders Tuesday, when it was informal
" announced that the Allis-Chalmers
company has definitely abandoned its
proposed $1.O00,O0 Improvement on
the Frazer-Chalmer> plant at Twelfth
street and Washtenaw avenue. Mem
bers of the company acknowledge
that they had changed their plans, but
would not say positively that labor
troubles were the sole cause of their
action, fearing that such a statement
would injure the city.
They expressed themselves as conf
dent that organized labor would ulti-
mately adjust itself to present eco
nomic conditions, and declared the de-
sired change would probably be
brought about by the organization of
employers. Other business men took
the same view during the day, for over
1000 restaurant keepers banded them
selves into an association to meet the
demands of their employees, which are
to be presented next week.

CRYING NEED OF
NAVAL OFFICERS
REAR ADMIRAL EVANS ASKS THE
DEPARTMENT TO COME TO HIS
ASSISTANCE AS SOON AS POSI-
BLE-No RELIEF FOR THEM.

Washington, January Sin letter to
the navy department dated November 20,
1902, Rear Admiral Evans, commander
in-chief of the Asiatic station, calls at
tention to the crying need of officers for
the ships on his station and urges the
navy department to come to his assist
ance as soon as possible
The admiral says:
MANY Of the officers have already
served more than three years, and under
the ruling that two years in the Philip
pines count cruise, many more are en-
titled to be relieved and sent home, and
during the coming spring this number
will be more than doubled. There are no
reliefs for them, and SO far as 1 am
aware none has left the United States.
Frequently officers are In the hospital at
Cavite or Yokohama, and their ships
must go further short-handed until they
are sent hack. There are at present two
gunboats ready and three others almost
ready to be placed in commission, but
am unable to avail myself of their serv-
ices because 1t is impossible to find offi-
GERS for them without further depicting
the cruising ships, none of which can
safely spare a single officer without ma
terially affecting their efficiency.
Several commanding officers and many
others of the grades below need reliefs as
soon as practicable"
