THE EFFECT ON THE JURY.

Considering the fact that every
body believed the jury for the Hollo-
well case would be chosen in Jeffer-
son county. we speculated on the pur-
pose of the card published in the
Louisville Times and signed by many
Caldwell county officials, to the effect
that they believed all the defendants
In the Hollowell case are innocent OF
the charge made against them by
the plaintiff This card was signed
by John l.. Grayot, commonwealth
attorney, and the next day after the
card appeared. signed by the official
whose duty it was to investigate and
prosecute the people, who whipped
Robert Hollowell and raided Prince
ton. the same paper published the
fact that four of the defendants were
indicted in Crittenden county for
whipping Henry Bennett and a few
days later another was indicted for
the same offense. Some OF them. we
are advised, are also indicted in Lyon
county for whipping men at Eddy
vile.
II might have been considered pru-
dent for an official one county OF
whose circuit has been conspicuous
for disorders that have gone unre-
buked, to at least refrain from TAX
ing sides against the prosecution,
especially when some of Ite. men in
his circuit, for whose good ma racter
he vouches and whom Re publicly
proclaims innocent are Indicted for
the same kind OF offenses committed
under like circumstances and from
like motives elsewhere.
We do not. however. think that the
commonwealth attorney OF the Cald-
we'll circuit signed that statement for
the purpose of influencing the jury
in the Hollowell suit. We would sor-
row to think such thought. County

Thousands of American women

their lives to duty.
In order to keep the home neat

for a dance the emperor might not
claim, and to save his life or national
crisis he could not have forced the
same expression In speaking with her
ROYAL highness from Russia as that
which spontaneously frightened his
face when at last he approached Wiz
ginia.
"Who Is that girl?" asked Count Won
Breitstein In his usual abrupt manner
as the arm of Leopold girdled the slim
waist of the princess and the eyes OF
Leopold drank light from another pair
Of eyes lifted to his in laughter.
It was to Baroness Won Lyndal that
the old chancellor put his question,
and she fiuttered a tiny diamond
spangied fan Of lace to hide lips that
would smile as she answered. What,
chancellor, are you jesting, or don't
you really know who that girl is!'
Count Won Breitstein turned eyes
cold and gray as glass away from the
two figures moving rhythmically with
the music to the face Of the once cele-
brated beauty. Long ago he had ad-
mired Baroness Won Lyndal as passion
ately as it was in him to admire any
woman, but that day was so far dis
tant as to be remembered with scorn,
| and now such power as she had over
him was merely to excite feeling OF
irritation.
81 seldom trouble myself to jest"
he answered.
"Ah, one knows that truly great men
are born without sense OF humor.
Those who have it are never as sue
cessful in life as those without,
smiled the baroness, who was by blrtl1
n Hungarian and loved laughter bet
ter than anything else except compli-
ments upon her vanishing beauty
"How stupid of me to have tried your
patience. That girl as you SO un
compromisingly call her. has two
claims to attention at court. She Is
the English Miss Helen Mowbray
whose mother has come to Kronbure
armed with sheaves OF introductions
to us all. She is also the young WON
an of whom the papers are full today
for it is she who saved the emperor
life"

II thought you would have known
