THE NORMAN "OYEZ."
A Legacy of William the conqueror to
the Courts.

A Legacy Of William the Conqueror to
the Courts.
Everybody who has ever been in a
United States courtroom knows that
when the judge walks out of his cham
bers and ascends the bench the court
crier drones out:
'Oyez oyez, oyez, the honorable court
of the whatever district it may be- is
now in session."
Not many persons, however, realize
that the crier says "oyez, Oyer, oyez,"
instead of "harken, harken, harken,"
because Of a chance visit that William
the Conqueror made to an English
court almost 900 years ago.
William had overrun England, seized
the government and placed himself at
Its head. Happening to enter court
room, he heard the crier call the as
semblage to order in English. William
rebuked him and on the spot decreed
that the business of all English courts
should be transacted in Norman
French. his native tongue. Afterward
the courts went back to English, but to
this day "oyez. oyez, oyez." clings to
court customs wherever the English
language is spoken as a reminder Nof

Harold in the battle of Hastings

A GREAT COMBINATION.

When Husband, Wife and Mother.in.
law Cooperate.
Shortly after his marriage, which
took place in 1880, John Burns, the
British labor leader. settled down as a
journeyman engineer in Battersea and
twenty years after confessed that he
was the first engineer to make with
his own hands an electric tram
car in Great Britain. In those days,
however, people did not believe that
electric traction was possible, and
Burns had to take the dynamo and
tram to the Crystal palace and run the
latter round the grounds for six months
before people could be induced to be-
lieve in the novelty.
But the people were so nervous that,
although the charge was only sixpence,
none of them would venture in the
newfangled invention. Then Burns was
struck with a brilliant idea. He said
to his wife. You have got to come
down to the palace three times a week
and get into the first electric tram car
as a decoy duck for the Others" This
was only temporarily successful. So
Burns brought along his mother-in-
law, "and," said the energetic labor
leader when relating the incident,
when a husband, wife and a mother
in-law cooperate success is assured"

in Monpour, and in his subsequent OBJ

The nest is built in the hollow Of a
tree through an opening in the bark.
AS soon as it is completed the mother
bird enters carefully and fearfully and
settles down in it. Then papa walls up
the opening, leaving only just space
enough for air and food to pass
through. He keeps faithful guard and
brings food at regular intervals with

enforced retirement. But if the prison
bird is killed or in any other way pre-

Whether or not this result can be
accomplished is for others to say. But
the fact is that the speaker and his
lieutenants have been preparing for
just such an eventuality, and have a
fair proportion of the membership of

for me to say now, however, what this

Committees CounseIed Both

Election.
FOES OF SALOON FIRM.
SENTIMENT OF VOTERS OF COUN-
TY is BEING ASCERTAiNED-
QUESTION OF REPEAL OF LAW
is BoTHERSoME.

AS quickly and effectively as posi-
bic, those men who have allied them
selves for the fight in behalf of a
county local option law election in this
county, are ascertaining the sentiment
of the voters. They are meeting with
encouragement in some sections and
promise of absolute favor in others.
Many voters who have been consulted.
suggest a delay in the election. The
committee does not believe in a delay
of any kind and favors putting Wayne
county on the list as an example of a
county that has gone dry despite the
opposition.
There is diversity of opinion
among the FRONTIERS of the election
proposition as to the probable action
of the next Legislature. By some it
is believed the law will be sure to be
repealed. Others assert there is a
chance that it may not be. There are
still others who say the law will not
be allowed to stand as 1t is, but will
be altered in several particulars. Be-
cause of the prospects that the law
will not be allowed to remain as 1t Is
now, some temperance advocates be-
lieve the election in this county ought
to be held as soon as possible and all
chances of action by the legislature
be taken at this time.
1t has been suggested that action by
the committee might be postponed adj
vantageously. If an election be called
and fail, another election can not be
called for two years. The legislature
might not alter the provisions of the
law seriously at the coming session.
but their first failure would prevent
the partisans of the election PROPOSE
ton from taking other action for the
period stated. Among the business
men, who have been appealed to for
their sentiment in the ma..er, the COM
mittee has been counseled both for and
against immediate action and this di-
vision of sentiment seems to exist
among professional men ALSO.

ination and part of the cross exam
ination occupied the time of the en-
tire morning. Jones surprised the
jury, Judge, attorneys and spectators
when he declared he had been given a
quart bottle of York Hill whisky prev
ious to June 80, 1906. The label on
the bottle stated the contents were
guaranteed under the pure food and
drugs act of that date. A puzzle arose
as to how Jones secured liquor that
was sent out by the distillery bearing
such label in advance of the date
of the passage OF the law under which
the whisky was sold
The witness said he had sold whis-
ky on prescription and that he is not
pharmacist and entitled to issue
prescriptions. He admitted that two
years ago he was in the habit of sell
ing liquor. He admitted that two
years ago he was fined twice in the
Wayne circuit court for selling beer
to a minor. Bert White.
In his direct examination Jones ex-
planned the presence of several crates
of whisky bottles in his "wareroom, -
when the place was raided by saying
he intended to use them in his trade.
He accounted for the large bottles by
saying he kept them for the conven-
fence Of customers. that often they
came after coal oil or something and
had not brought their cans, so he put
the oil in bottle. He said he bought
seven Mount Vernon rye bottles. He
said he did not know how they were
brought to his store, but supposed
they were brought in a sack or basket.
He said he did not know where he got
box into which these bottles fitted
and the outside of which is branded
the same as the labels on the bottles.
Jones explained the possession of
the beer by saying he had bought two
dozen for his brother-in-law, Mr..
Gibbs and the other four dozen for
himself. He said his wife's health
had been poor and she was using the
beer as a stimuIant. He said he want
ed some of the beverage for his own
use. also.
1t was the intention of the attor-
neys to complete the case this after
noon, If possible, SO the jury would
not have to worry with it's verdict ov-
er Sunday. Conviction of the defen-
dant upon the charge carries with 1t
a fine and Jail sentence.
