Certain state papers are suffering
from holy horror because young men are
occasionally inveigled into a small politi-
cal Office and ruined forever thereafter.
1t is probably true that the "landing" of
department 'snap" in Washington has
been the unmaking of many bright and
ambitious young men.
The absolute lack of business connec-
ton between the amount of work done
therein and the amount of pay assigned
thereto is demoralziug. The very
general lack of quid pro quo standard
in government circles breeds laziness and
unwillingness to give the best one has.
The leisurely performance of routine
kills all the natural "hustle" and ambi-
tion of the individual. But all this
should not apply to Office holding
generally.
Young men ought to hold office
ought to be encouraged TO serve Their
town, county, state or nation. There is
no finer career for the talented young
man than public service, provided always
that it is not the sort that arrives, as too
often happens, after ignoble and squalic
service in the dirty work" of politics
or after some slavish personal service to
political leader who merely seeks tc
cancel debt. Exalt the ideal of ser.
vice, generally; don't demean it.-Mont

dict plainly showed on their pale
faces and reddened eyes. a jury
locked up to consider a case is given
no comforts. The chairs in the jury
room are hard. straight backed affairs
in which even few moments of sleep
for tired jurymen would be we'll nigh
impossible.
The Thaw jurors have been cheer
full body of men but today there was
nothing in their demeanor to denote
that they had reached any sort of con-
clusion.
If the jury should come into court
today and report their disagreement
there is little doubt but that Justice
Fitzgerald will send them back to
continue their deliberations as the
trial has cost the county thousands of
dollars.
Bulletin 10 A. NJ.
New York. April 11.-Justice Fitz-
gerald arrived at criminal courts
building at 1921 a. m. At that time
no word had come from the jury room.
At 1888 o'clock all newspaper men
were called into the court room.
Members of the Thaw family arrived
at the criminal courts building Short
ly after 10 o'clock.
When Justice Fitzgerald went to his
chambers, the court officers told him
no word had come from the jury room.

Judge would send for the jury to as

ations.

The action of the fury in asking for
the particular exhibits and testimony
indicated led to theories that the
jurors either wanted to refresh their
memories as to testimony tending to
show either deliberation or premedi-
tation on the part of Thaw, or else
they wanted to have the story Of
Thaw's actions the night of the trag-
edy rehearsed once more in order
that they might judge as to his ration
ality. The suggestion OF the latter
seemed to be given weight by the fact
that they desired to examine the let
ters, will and codicil brought forward
by the defense in support of its claim
OF insanity.
1t was generally conceded that seri-
Gus differences of opinion had develop
ed among the jurors as to the evi-
dence, and that verdict of any sort
was still remote. The examination of
the Thaw letters and other documents
called for will require much time.
That portion of the judges charge
relating to insanity was read to the
Thaw jury after which the jury re-
tired to the jury room for luncheon
at 1880 p. m.
Justice Fitzgerald went out to
luncheon shortly after the jury had
retired, announcing that he would not
be back until 2:15 Or 2:30 o'clock.
