Jury made III of men trained to decide matters Of fact Inc evidence. Just as
legal judges re now educated to decide questions purely of law.
What is there revolutionary in such a proposal? Is it not in with all
modern progress? We have long passed the days when every mar Was a ack
of all trades. The decision of controversies upon weight of evidence, n the
nice estimation of theories, is expert work and should be done by those edu-
Gated. trained and experienced in such matters. After all. lawyers, in order
to present their clients cases to juries, are trained in precisely this AFFINITY.
They learn to snt evidence, to estimate credibiity, to decide upon tn relative
probability of opposing accounts; they, in short are trained Jurymen' and need
only the laws sanction to perform the functions now bundringly bohhed Ry
the haphazard laymen.
For this work they should be adequately paid. In heir work, they should
be assured of the same respect and submission nw exacted by the bench.
equity courtsh have long performed such offices, and have proved the possibility
and desrabiity of the change. The professional Jurors oud take TO ne
consideration of issues of fact tive probiy of their characters, instead of the
ignorance that characteizes the ideal lay reader. They could be allowed to
q ONE and visit their families with the anne reliance upon their honor that
low forbds any espionage OF restriction of the judge upon the bench. There
might be corrupt Jurors, IS there are corrupt Judges pt lie rarity =" s"ee
ermine would be just as great.
Legislatures ire the most powerful bodies n the world; and the legisa
ures rlet themselves. If a president of the United States should be I'M
neached, we do not require that a jury to try him shall be draW by lot IRON
fe citizens of the republic. And yet, if the jury system be the ideal, why
should it not be invoked in these, the most important cases that al arise
under u Government?
In brief. m proposal is this: Let there be a professional jury bench. made
mn If mn learned in those branches of legal lore and civil INK criminal codes
teach the correct determination of issues of fact lei TIL lay jury Dc
abolished and all issues of fact be made tiable before a bench that snail e.
ternine these. and these alone. Such a change would re 10 more nal te
snecmlizaton and division of labor that insures skiful and just sitting OF
facts and it requires only the utilization of the surplus legal talent available
i'll all CIVILIZED lands.
Tho modern Jury is survival in a corrupt form, of what Ws once q useful
means of Justice. Modern ideals demand it's reformation, and It's return TO
that will accomplish for US what the old jury system did fol our

Indian ambuscade, Jack McCaul, the
driver, vas disabled by an arrow. Not
one of. the badly ratified men dared
assume the reins. With a haunting
laugh and defiant crack of the whip
the fearless woman mounted the driv-
er's seat and drove the plunging four
horse team, on time, to White Birch.
A little later Jack McCaul murdered
her friend, Wild Bill Hikok, in cold
blood. With fearless eyes and close
set lips, Calamity headed a lynching
party, and, according to Colonel Cody,
leaving her gun at home, held up"
| McCaul with a butchers cleaver and
helped to swing him from the near
est cottonwood tree.
A WESTERN BIRTHDAY PARTY.
A less grewsome anecdote of the hui
morous daring of the woman, at a
more recent date, is given by an eye
witness of the scene described. To use
his own words: ''Two years ago Ca
lamity Jane was on her way from
jamestown, N. D., to Livingston, Mont.
Her birthday called for a proper cele-
bration. This was in the COW town Of
Oaks, N. D.; She drank much, and III
one saloon the boys began to chaf
her. With a grim smile she invited
every one up to the bar. Suddenly two
revolvers appeared, for she could draw
as quick as any man that eve lived.
dance, you tenderfeet, dance" she
commanded, firing a few shots into
the air, by way of emphasis; and they
did dance-and they did other things,
too, at her word, for they knew she
was a woman not to be triied with,
and if they hadn't known, the way
she closed that saloon would have
been powerfully convincing" A little
later, during the Pan-American Ex-
position, she was induced by inter-
ested friends to go to Buffalo. To this
wild Western woman, who had never
known a home, who hated civilization,
and who always had moved on at
sound Of the distant locomotive, the
confinement was ~unbearable. She
hailed the coming Of Buffalo Bill with
pathetic joy. To him she applied for
funds to return to her old stamping
grounds in Montana. For the sake of
the days when this weather-beaten,
dissipated woman was a handsome
young girl, Colonel Cody helped his for
mer scouting companion home. For a
time she haunted various mining
camps, and at last drifted into the
Butte poorhouse. From thence she
wandered to Dakota, where she ded,
eight miles from Deadwood, leaving a
husband in Denver, much younger than
herself, and a married daughter, whose
name she refused to give.
Such in brief was the life of this
I pgular woman, vouched for by those
WOO knew her well.
When the elastic line that. bounded
thS new West was merged into the
Pal kfc cable, it was time for her to
go. TUntil they, too, shall pass, she will
be remembered by old timers for her
big hNart and matchless courage; while
all re4ders Of Bret Harte's '"The Luck
Rotsring Camp" will recognize in

AFFAIRS OF SIMPLIFYING TRUST IN MEXICO LIKELY TO BE MAN
 AGED FROM DENVER.

h Is currently reported that the present visit of the distinguished rep. resentative and mining engineer 0, ne Guggenheim interests, John Hayes Hammond. means an entire rear rangement of the personnel of the Gnggenheim management in Mexico and perhaps the abolition of the Mex. seo City offices of the company, says the Me+ican Herald.
 It is said that the most valuable of the Gnggenheim properties are now well under process of development and that much of the preliminary work Of their explorations ip Mexico has been completed. It is believed thai the recent resignation of the general manager for Mexico, Edw Doerr. and of general representative H. M Diff fenbach, may be the beginning of the dissolution of the Mexico City man agement, and that the eminent Color ado mining man. A. Chester Beatty, win be able to manage the Guggen- helm properties from his Denver of hee, as well as the company's inter- ests in the United States.
 No successors to Messrs. Doerr and Diffenbacb have been named, and it is thought there will be none. Mr. Beatty is one of the party with Mir. Hammond on his Mexican tour. and Mrs. Beatty will arrive in the city from Denver today.
