many of the names SO selected were
there suggested, designated and rec
commended by the said Dawley.
The Court heard the testimony Ut
several witnesses relative to the man
ner of selecting the trial jurors for
the 0ounty for the year in question,
and then made his finding and deliv-
cred his decision on the motion as
follows:
From the testimony produced here
on the hearing OF the challenge, the
Court finds that all of the persons
whose names were put on the jury list
were selected by the Board OF Coun-
ty commissioners; that none Of them
were selected by Mr.. Dawley as al
legged in the challenge and also find
that it is not true that selections we're
not made from old jury lists, although
!. jury list had been used by the
Commissioners for the purpose OF
finding out the names, it would have
been perfectly proper. The book
used was book showing jury service
and it was proper for the commits
sioners to consult that book do
not find that-although Mr.. Dawley
in certain cases said that certain
men would be good jurymen; l do
not frd that in any case the Com
Eliss:oners failed to exercise their
cwn Judgment in making UP the list.
'1-ere has been no injury shown to
the defendants. For these reasons
there has been no material departure
from the forms prescribed by the stat
ute. The challenge is disallowed.'
We have carefully reviewed the
transcript of the evidence in the rec
ord upon the motion, and think the
same fully supports the findings and
conclusions of the trial court.
Mr.. Dawley was the clerk of the
court. as well as ,--e clerk of the
Ioard of County Commissioners. He
had kept a record of jury service
which covered a period of nearly ten
years. Although he could not legally
select nor properly urge the selection

HOW ANIMALS SWIM.

Almost all animals know how to swim without
having to learn it. As they fall into the
water driven into it, they instiuctively make
the proper motions, and not only manage to keep
aloat, but propel themselves without trouble.
Exceptions are the monkey, the camel giraffe. the
llama, which cannot swim without assistance Camels
and llamas have to be helped across water and gi-
RATES. and monkeys drown if they enter it, Now
and then both OF the latter species manage to
waterways when they are driven to extremities Just
as human beings occasionally can keep themselves
above water through sheer fright
funny though able. swimmer is the rabbit He
submerges his body. with the exception of the head
and tail The latter sticks away MP in the air. and
his hind legs make "soap-suds' as he churns the
water madly to get away. But with all his avl
wardness, he is swift swimmer and is beaten only
by the squirrel among the land animals
The squirrel swims with his heavy tail sunk wav
down in the water and his head held high He
ceaves the waves like duck, and a man in a row.

TROTTING OR GALLOPING?

Here is problem for people with sharp eyes! AS
we all know, horse when walking trotting ad-
vances only one leg of each pair at time but when
gaoping lifts both fore feet together and then both
hind feet. Now, the question is, how other animals
manage this matter. The birds, of course, flap both
wings together, but which birds and which hop?
We human beings "trot" when we walk and gal
lop when swim-that is if we are using the
plain breast stroke The dog, however, "trots" for
both. Now, do the amphibous anmals-the seals
offers and the rest-swim like like other
tour-fooed creatures?
Then there are the fish. One would rather expect
that, as they their tails from side to side they
would flap alternately with the fins, which are their
hands and feet Who tell whether they do or
not. and whether all fish at all times follow one
rule? BY the way how does a frog use its "hands?'
The great anatomist, E. Ray Lancaster has lately
pointed out that while the thousand legs" such as
our common gally worm, advance two feet of a pair
together, the centipedes, which much like them
do exactly the opposite; and the swimming worms
also alternate the stroke of each pair of paddles
doubt if many people tell which system the.
caterpillar manages its dozen legs, or whether
the adult insect walks, trots, PAGES galops its
SIN How does the spider eight?
Altogether this is large field for observation, a
field, too. where anyone may discover new facts as
yet unrccorded and thus add to the store of knowl-

CHILDREN'S SAYINGS.

The little folks were playing Thought" In this
game one takes thought and the others guess it
from questions asked and answered. Little W., aged
five, had taken something in the Bible that belonged
to the mineral Kingdom. After much guessing it
was finally given up w. said, 1T Adam, wasn't
he made of dust?'
Another time he took something that originally be-
onged to the vegetable kingdom, but turned into the
animal. 1t proved to be Moses rod that turned into
serpent.
This same little fellow remarked he knew why a
tricycle. was called that. 1t because boys t,y
ON that before they have bicycle.
He and his older brother had been well trained in
the Bible, teaching that everything happens for the
best W. was much afraid of the dark. Trying to
persuade him to venture out alone one night, his
BROTHER about six years old, said, Go on; and if
anything happens to you it will be for the good of
else"
W. heard minister say that boys at college were
laughed at for reading the Bible, and spoken of as
tied to their mothers apron strings. He related it
as they would be laughed at for having a Bible
wrapped up in their mothers apron strings.

Mothers Place.
MY MOTHER.

1T has been truly said: "The first being that rushes
to the recollection of a soldier or a sailor in his
hearts difficulty is his mother. She clings to his
memory and affection in the midst of all the forget
fulncss and hardihood induced by rowing life. The
last message he leaves is for her; his last whisper
breathes her name The mother as she instills the
lessons of pety and lial obligation into the heart of
her infant son, should always feel that her labor is
not in vain. She may drop into the grave but she
has left behind her influences that will work for
her. The bow is broken but the is sped and

COUNTING OUT"

by ANNA DEMING GRAY.
1t is said that children all over the civilized world
have rhyme they for counting out, in games,
which corresponds in to that used by
American children. In this country the rhyme diff
fers with the locality. In New England sixty years
ago, the form used was something like this:
Onery, Oery, ckery Ann,
Ellison, Foison, Nicholas, John,
Query, Quarry, English Navy;
Tinklum, Tanklum-Out:
Or this:
Wire, brer, lumber lock-
Nine geese in a flock
Sit and sing, at the head of the spring,
Tenderfoot specklefoot,
Trip up and-be-out!
Later in New England this one came into favor:
Wire, brer, timber lock-
Six geese in a flock
One flew East and one flew West
One flew the Cuckoo's nest
a little boy driving cattle
Don't you hear his money rattle?
Sit and sing, by the spring,
Out spells Quit
At the same time i'll the South the children count
ed out in this way:
Ency, Meny, miny moo
Cracly, feeny, fny foo;
Mama, Toosha, Papa Lucia
Rick Dick, Dan, Doc
This one seems to have been favorltc. for it is
used identically in the South to-day
verse:
william McIrimity he's good Waterman,
ne catches hens and puts them pens
some lay eggs, and some lay none,
Wire, brer, Timber lock-
