ONLY TWO DOLLARS.
Exchange Thinks Pay of Jurors not in
Proper Proportion TO That Received
by the Other Fellows.

An exch1nge says -
4 noted murder trial has just
closed which has lasted for weeks.
rhelawyers have been paid thous
ands of dollars, the judge has re
ceived a large salary, individual
witnesses have been paid thous-
ands and thousands of dollars.
The entire civilized world has
been discussing the points of law
and probable cute ome, legal lore
has been ransacked to the ends
of the earth for which money was
paid out as freely as water. After
all of this tremendous outlay of
money and com Lination of brain
power, the entire matter was sub
mitted for final decision to twelve
men who were paid two dollars
per day, salary not equal to the
amount paid to a com mon, ig1or
ant, vicious, unnaturalzed for
eigner, digging N a New York
sewer.
If the jury system is a lecessl
ty, which we do not admit, car
any man reasonably object to
their being plid ten to fifteen dol
lars per day, 1t is dlsgracefuI
to force men to come in and de
eide great law questions, which
cannot be trusted to legally edu
Gated judges, and then pay them
less than street workers earn.
In the case mentioned one jury
man lost his business because the
great law swooped down on him
and compelled him to work foi
weeks at two dollars per day, anc
entirely neglect his own business
and yet we call this free coun
try. The great eastern stat'
should be compelled to restore t.
this iuryman the business he lost
While you are on jury, decd
ing great legal questions, yo,
earn a paltry two dollars per day
while the average lawyer who fan
the air of the court room will
arms aud tongue, receives fft,
to five hundred dollars per da,
for his breezy efforts. If the jur,
syst m must be perpetuated, lie
laws be passed paying juryme
decent amount for their sery
ices.

FELL TO HIS DEATH.
J. Wesley johnson, Formerly OF Wells
Valley, Met Death in an Elevator Shaft
in Minneapolis, Last Thursday.
PROBABLY FROM SEVENTH FLOOR.

Mrs. w. II. Baumgardner of
Wells Tannery received a tele.
gram last Friday morning an
nouncing the death of her broth
er, j. Wesley Johnson at Min.
neapolis, Mlnn. Mr.. Johnson
was resident of Wells Valley
for several years and a most ex-
cellent citizen. A few years ago,
he removed from the Valley to
North Dakota, and after remain
ing there one year, went to Min
neapolls, where he resided until
the time of his death, having a
nice position in that city as man
ager of the Andrus Building.
Mr.. Johnson was aged 81 years,
and the cause of his death is as
yet unknown to his friends here.
He leaves to mourn their loss a
widow, three sons, ,and one daugh-
ter, the sons live in Minneapolis,
and the daughter, IN Chicago.
Since putting the above IN type,
we have the following facts from
DR.. Joseph F.. Barton, now resi-
dent of Minneapolis
Mr.. johnson was Superlntend-
ent of the Andrus Building. His
body was found dead last Thurs
day night in the bottom of the
freightelevator shaft, in the build
ing, where he had evidently gone
to make repairs
The body was found by E. T.
johnson, son of the dead man,
who had become alar med because
the father did not arrive home al
the usual time, and started g
search tor him. Looking into the
elevator shaft IN the basement
the son saw his fathers body {
few feet below the elevator. The
Coroner, who was at once notified
is in doubt as to how the man me
his death, although there is NJ
suspicion of suicide or foul play
The bones IN the body were
broken and there were severa
cuts showing that the body haC
fallen some distance, probably
from the seventh floor, as he was
last seen there. His hands anc
body were samewhat burned, as
though he had fallen along the
cables.
A charwoman employed IN thu
building says that Mr.. johnson
was late in getting through. HI
4 paid her for her days work, anC
walked toward the elevator shaft
The elevator was at the top of thu
building at the time. A minute
later, when she turned, johnson
was gone and the door in tin
shaft was open. Thinking h
had gone up III the elevator ant
forgotten the door in his hurry
she closed it and went home
When the body was found the ele
vator was only a foot above 1t
JCnnsonhad fallen down the shat
and ia falling, struck the cable
and reversed the car, bringing i
down after him.

ATTRACTIVE RECITAL.
Large Audience Enjoyed Entertainment
at Seminary.

at Seminary.
From the WiamspOrt (Pa) sun
The senior expression recital
gwen at the Seminary last night
by Charles M. Lodge was exceed.
ingly attractive in every way. In
spite of the very inclement wealth
er the chapel was filed with a
large and attentive audience.
Mr.. Lodge reads with calm dig
nifty and composure which is
rarely found III public speakers
and which is very valuable asset
to effective work. Matthew Ar
nold's "Rohrab and Rustum" was
given with an intensely DIR lmatic
spirit which won the audience
from the very first. Riley's
"Knee Deep in June" was read
with high appreciation of the
sentiment OF the selection. Mr..
Lodge is a great admlrer of the
"Hoosier Poet" and he is most
happy in the interpretation of his
writings. "White Azahas" was
laden with tender pathos which
touched the hearts OF all, while
"uncle Jothane's Spree" as a
mirth provoker was irresistible.
The scene from Hamlet was we'll
interpreted, and DR.. Buffers
poem, ITO an Old Violin" was ar
tistically presented, bringing out
the subtle meaning OF the lines,

they often left bloody foot prints
IN the snow. AS the writer pens
these lines from his study in the
Gulf parsonage on the second
floor, he looks down upon the old
Gulf road, where it crosses Ford
street, and thinks of the time
when the Faith Or of his Country
with his army, in the winter of
1777 and 1873 travelled from Phil
adelphia to Valley Forge.
This short composition on Val
ley forge is written Tor the News,
that 1t may cause the young men
and women to read history more
and study more about what our
torefathers had to contend with
and suffer in order to give us
what we enjoy TO day. Much
more could be written on Valley
Forge, but we fear the waste bas
ket.

MAN FALLS OFF CAR.
Conductor Who is Alleged to Have
Witnessed Accident Fails TO Sig
nal MotOrmaR to Stop.

1t has been reported to the police
that an unknown man was riding on
one Of the Hammond Sixty street
cars last night fell from the car as it
was passing between Wolf Lake and
Forsythe. The man was standing upon
the platform and although the CON
ductor is said TO have seen him fall
from the car he failed TO stop the car.
A passing automobile picked the man
up and took him to Hammond. Moth
ing could be learned Of the mans iden-
tity. Passengers upon the car were
much incensed over the action of the
conductor by refusing to stop the car
and more than one passenger threat
ened TO report the matter TO the com
pany.
R, Thompson, one Of the passengers.
reported the matter to the Hammond
police.
