At one time Friday afternoon
three district court juries ~ert In
retirement to consider yerdicts tn
criminal cases, Frequently there
have been two juries out at the same
time but so far as known this f. the
first instance where thirty-six men
had been placed behind closed doors.
One set OF jurors occupied the reRu-
lar Jury room on the third floor,
another was sent to the male witness
room and the third conducted It's
deliberations in the female witness
room
The first and second jufies had
under adylsement respectively the
cases of John Henry Battles and A.
p. Dupree. and the third was empan-
eled to hear the plea of guilty OF
Carl Newton. young white man,
who was charged with burgiarizing
a gin office at Maypearl and store
at Bell Branch in the early part OF
| last June. Pleas of guilty were en-
tered in both cases and the same
| inrv took them under advisement
| The defendant was given two years
| in the peuitentiary in each case. the
| Jury was out only a few minutes IN
| the first case, but when it retired to
| make up the second verdict a mis-
| trial came near resulting, so 1t Is
| claimed IT is claimed that spirited
discussion took place in the jury
| room as to whether or not nine men
! could return a verdict in criminal
case. Being unable to settle the mat
ter among themselves the jury ask
ed for instruction from the court or
tthe disputed question. After belns
set right by the court it is claimed
that one juror wanted to return
verdict of acquittal after plea
guilty had been entered by the de
fendant This precipiated anothe
wrangle before a verdict was finail

1t has always been mystery to
us why it is possible for these "phe-
nomenons" to get any business. Or
dinarily their appearance is enough to
disgust people, but somehow they
thrive and the dear public pays the
bill with enthusiastic delight. If a
home physician were to fit himself out
in their peculiar garb he would become
the laughing stock of the community,
instead of the custodian Of the health
of the populace. Just imagine DIR.

ag he passed by. and the small boy
would give him the merry ha ha.

A friend from Illinois who was Wis

thought that if we would give him the
whole country he would not live here,
but after being here a few days there
was sale of some school land and l
told him he had better go to the sale
and buy at least forty acres and then
when he went back to Illinois he could
tell his friends that he had bought
some wild land. AS he had sufficient
cash to make the first payment. he le-
cided to do so and bought the forty
acres now owned by John Lynn for 81
per acre, paying $50 cash and giving
contract for ten years on the 500 at
per cent interest. He thought much
more of Iowa after this purchase, and
sold the land in about two years for
$40 per acre, cash.

THE TRAVELLING QUAcK.

(CeQar FallS heCOru.)
In small town in Iowa recently we
saw an alleged doctor parading the
streets as if he owned the whole BUSH
ness. He had long hair, his garments
hung loosely upon corpulent frame
and his visage wore the marks OF self
assurance that was truly marvellous.
A diamond ring ornamented his right
hand, and from his glossy front there
blazoned stone of richness and beau
ty. The whole equipment of the doc
tor seemed to be wrapped up in his
strange personality. If he had any
knowledge Of materia medica it was
not manifested in his general de-
meanor. He appeared more as a freak
than as one having any great curative
powers. Notwithstanding the eccen-
tricity in dress and manner, the fellow
was doing a great business. People
f1ocked to him as if he had power to
raise the dead. He was shrewd
enough to look wise and talk but little.
A case was diagnosed in such way
as to be sure to properly apply to some
of the conditions of the patient because
the entire range of human infirmity
was covered. Money flowed into the
Golfers OF the fakir and after he had

Poultry Pointers.

The watchful man has the least
trouble with sickness among his fowls.
Bowel trouble in chicks is often
checked by mixing a little granulated
charcoal in the soft food.
An English cure for roup is three
drops of camphor on a piece of bread.
Another preventative of bowel trou-
bles is said to be teaspoonful of We
netian red in a gallon of drinking wa
ter.
Dampness. communicating grounds
and lack of suitable grit are three
causes of disease among poultry.
