For a New Trial. Jury in

The Trial will Be Resumed in Court
Wednesday Morning

The several deputy sheriffs who were
for the purpose of securing 20 special

murder, returned and made report to
Sheriff Frank j. Ham Sunday. The
cGnstab leS of the various towns to

drawing of the special jurors as soon
as possible, and to make instant return
by mail to the clerks Of courts in this
city. 1t is expected that the list of new
Jurors drawn will be made up tonight
and the names will be published in the
Journal tomorrow morning.
The new jurors, as they are drawn,
will be instructed to report at the SUI
Deme judicial court at 10 o'clock
Wednesday morning and with the IL
members of the jury first empanelled,
they will be examined until full jury
is made up. There appears to be some
question as to whether it will be posi-
BILE for the jury to be secured from the
81 jurors who will be presented by the
clerk of courts. If the full jury is not
empanelIed from the 81 jurors, it will
be necessary to again issue venires for
another lot of jurors and this step
would mean that the trial must be de-
layed for two or three days longer.

70 dispense with sponsors and
maids of honor at reunions of Con.
federate veterans. The resolution,
which was offered by a Tennessee
woman, is sensible and timely.
The appointment Of sponsors and
maids of honor has been carried to
the extreme, and ought to be
abandoned. At some of the re-
unions the women have filled the
hotels almost to the exclusion OF
the veterans, who seem to be re
garded as sort of convenient
background for display of women
in their fashionable clothes. The
veterans prefer a reunion of com
rades to a society function. After
room is made at the hotels for
the sponsors, maids of honor and
the Major Generals in gorgeous
uniforms, who were only private
soldiers during the war, and whose
present titles are patheticalIy
humorous, there is no room left
for the veteran private, and he is
compelled to sleep and eat in any
old place he may find. The women
are beautiful and inspiring and
attractive and all that, but it is
something to know that they have
decided at future reunions not to
crowd out the veterans altogether.
The Generals and their stats are
secure, bat the veteran private
should also have a chance.

The Moultrie Observers correct
when it says colleges are being es-

frequency as state banks. There
is no danger of having too many
of them in the state. In every
community that will support a
bank, there are boys enough to
keep a high school or college.
