Fine Men for a Jury.

The difficulty of impaneling jury in
the early courts Of Wisconsin may be
seen from story related by former Sen
ator Spooner of that state.
Judge Irwin was on the bench, and a
murder trial was pending. &. L. Long,
Familiarity known as Lucy Long. was
undersheriff. There was difficulty in get
ting a jury that knew nothing about the
facts of the case. The regular panel had
been exhausted and a special venire had
been issued and was finally returned.
"'Well. Mr.. Long asked the judge,
have you at last secured sufficient
number of jurymen who know nothing
about this case"
Yes, your honor replied Long. Six
of these men don't know anything about
this case. and the other six don't know
nothing at all. '"-Minneapols Journal.

Reed is n Winner.

When Senator Stuart f. Reed, can
dldate for the Republican nomination
for secretary Of state, visited Charles
ton a few weeks ago, he made the
published statement in that city that
he would not seek to go to Mr.. Ton
pings own county-K anawha-In a
campaign for delegates and extended
Mr., Topping the courtesy of the op-
portunIty to receive that county's del
egation to the state convention with
out contest by him. While one NAV
say that this was generous on the
part of Mr.. Reed, yet It is a gentle
manly and unselhsh act such as
should be initiated or followed by all
the candidates as much as possible.
In Harrison county, Mr.. Reeds
home county, there is not the slight
est probability Of his not receiving
the solid delegation, but in Difference
to the example set by him no one ex-
poets any competitor Of his to seek
delegates in this county. Indeed, 1t
would be foolish and a waste of time
so to do, as Harrison county has a
patriotism for favorite sons that
would not listen to any such thing,
and, 1t is a settled fact. we venture to
say that Senator Reed already has

ate its being any other way and the

a Terrlhle Iesson.

At Grand Rapids, Mich, yesterday
fire broke out in the lavatory OF the
Central High School building while
1900 pupils we're engaged in their
studies. The signal for the fire drill
was given and the children marched
out Of the burning building in per-
feet order.
In Cleveland, o., the same day
there laid the blackened and charred
bodies of between $50 and 200 child
rem who were burned to death in a
horrible fire that destroyed the school
building they we're in the day before.
The wave of horror that overspread
the country at the painful news Of
the Cleveland disaster hardly had
time to impress the people with the
awfulness Of the occasion, when, as
a significant warning, came the word
from Grand Rapids that twelve humid
red little ones had been saved from
an awful death by the presence OF
mind Of those in authority and the
custom formed by wise and neces-
sary discipline
In the Cleveland disaster, however
there had not been a total absence Of
a fire drill. The pupils we're started
out upon such a march at the first
alarm of fire. But at the crucial
moment the drill was forgotten, the
children seeing the smoke and flames
of the fire became panic stricken,
and, according to the news dispatch
es, not the slightest effort to effect
an orderly or prompt escape availed.
The appalling result was that the
lives of nearly two hundred little tots
were snuffed out in one of the most
terrible manner of death mankind
can suffer.
Could there be a more terrible or
a more impressive lesson?
One feature of the Cleveland dis
aster SHOULD not be overlooked by
school authorities and even parents
whose duty it is to be interested in
such matters. That is the fact that
the line Of march as followed out by
the pupils in the North Collinwood
school has always led to the front
door and the children had not been
trained to seek any other exit. The
fire in the building came from fur
mace situated directly under this part
of the building and when the child
rem reached the foot OF the front
stairs they found the flames close
upon them. A swift rush was made
toward the door and in an instant a
tightly packed mass of children was
piled up against it.
Some lessons are indeed costly.
Certainly this one cannot be without
effect upon the whole country. If
there are schools In which the fire
drill is necessary but forgotten ii
ought not to take any further
prompting than the terrible example
at Cleveland provides to urge the
establishment, or re-establishment
of regular and strict fire dlclpline
without further delay.
