GOOD CITIZEN BUT TPRfJUD|CfD
The Courts Estimate of
 Grand Juror Canning
Excused From DeliberatiOn in Carr and Gardiner Cases.

The grand jury yesterday resumed its labors after d recess of ten days. Before retiring for consideration the jury was brought into court at the re- quest of Judge Baker, made at the time of the hearing of the demurrers on the Carr and Gardiner indictments to be examined as to the qualifications of the members to sit in the consider atIon of the cases
 The request was mainly aimed at J. w. Canning who it was reported had bOasted before hand that Carr and Gardiner would be indicted for the illegal expenditure of money at the fourth ward election; that he boasted of it after their indictment and had said that he wanted to get even with them.
 The examination of the state of mind of MT. Canning was conducted by Captain Alexander who in the course of the inquiry asked Mir Can ming if he had not been reforming things around here a whole lot. The grand juror replied that he had been and said that later he would begin on Captain Alexander. This reply provoked an angry retort. Further examination along this line was stop ped by the court
 Canning admitted that he was pre- judiced against Carr and Gardiner but he said that his vote against them was not because of his prejudice. He had said before the meeting of the grand jury that men who had done what the indictment said they had done should be indicted.
 He had desired to make a state ment and was permitted to begin it. He said at the outset that Carr had told him that he had bought more than one hundred votes to be delivered and Gardiner had said that things had been so framed up in the fourth ward that defeat was impossible
 At this point the court interrupted the statement and said that if it con sisted of such matter as had already been prevented in the few brief mo- ments MT. Canning had had the floor 1t might be dispensed with altogether. Canning said that the part of the statement already before the court was a fair sample of what was to come. The big berries had not all been placed On top.
 The court said that while Canning in his efforts to preserve the sane tity of the ballot had played the part of good citizen, the prejudice he had admitted against Carr and Gard iner disqualified him for sitting in their cases and he would therefore be, excused as to those cases.
 Phil Ensign was asked as to his sentiments toward these two defend ants and whether he did not cherish some animosity against them for hay ing worked for his defeat as delegate to the late county convention. Mir. Ensign replied that he had no i'll feel ing against Carr and Gardiner.
 The grand jury retired and late in the day returned several indictments against persons not in custody and which Were therefore not made pub lie. It is understood that one of them is re-indictment of Carr and it is also understood that no indictment had yet been returned against Gardi- ncr.
 Foreman Chandler told the court that there were other matters to be considered but that the grand jury would finish its work today.

A Merger Birthday Banquet at The
 Den Yesterday Afternoon.

The most scrumptious banquet that ever happened in Phoenix was held lat The Den" late yesterday after noon and was q cooperative birth day party of Miss Ellis kindergar- t-ners. It all happened this way. 5~.!n Irvine, one of the youngsters. y,~s arranging to celebrate his anni- versary and two or three others were dated for similar events almost at the same time. It was therefore de- cidsd to hold a general school cele- b-ctiCl with a joint party for all the little folks who have birthdays dur ing the months of April and May. That included the following list: Alice Christy, aged 3; Dean Watta- wa, aged ,; John Harding Irvine. aged 6; Floy Watson, aged 6; Paul Willis, aged 8; Marcella Johnson. aged 10; Bessie Thomas, aged F, and ! Georjeane Barnes, who was six years old yesterday.
 Such a fine lot of birthdays could not be properly celebrated in any or dinary way. There is no finer place 1 to celebrate anybody's birthday than | at The Den and as that is the home of little GeOrjeane Barnes, that pa
 facial resort was elected as the fes-
 tai scene for the children. The long l handsomely furnished hall was set | for the banquet so there was no in | reference with the plans of the hun gry grown folks who dropped in as
 usual at the dinner hour. The ban
 quet table was laid for the following
 guests, a few interested parents be-
 ing present to wait table" and sup
