JURY SYSTEM REJECTED.
Philippine Commission Against Per-
 manent Jurors.

Manila, May 29.-The Philippine com mission has rejected the assembly bill creating a jury system. The measure provides for provincial boards to appoint five permanent jurors in each province to serve on all jury cases. The com mission held that the plan was not an ideal one and would invariably lead to abuses.
 The commission had passed the public works bill, appropriating 100000 pesos. One-half of this sum goes for the con struction of roads. Half million will be expended in starting a system of ir- rigation works, while with the balance provision is made to start the construc- ton of capitol building at Manila, im- prove the harbors at Iloilo and build d custom house at Cebu.

MURDER TINTED AT
 IN GIRLS DEATH

Princeton, N. J., May 29.-Developments of the last few days have led Prosecutor Berdine to suspect that the death of Miss Bertha Vanderbilt, an assistant librarian of the Princeton university library. was not the result of an accident and MT. Berdne has begun an investigation. Miss Vanderbilt was the daughter. of a jeweler of Amsterdam, N Y, and her body was taken to that city for burial Mr. Ber- dine is said to be of the opinion that the county physician and coroner. who all lowed the body to be buried, acted too hastily. It is said that Miss vanderbilt's conduct on the afternoon of her death indicated that she had an appointment with some one in the vicinity of the place where her body was found, and in addi- ton to this there is nothing to explain how her body got into the canal.

Cane Sugar VS.. Beet Sugar.

Prof. G. w. Shaw of the Uni
versity Of California, one Of the
foremost authorities on beet SUI
gar in America, has issued a cir
cular in which he contends, with
much force, that beet sugar con-
tains more sucrose than cane SUI
gar, the relative test for cane be-
ing 9o.7, as against the sugar
beet's oo.8.
Further, he says that in the
making of syrup some difference
was noted in the action of diff
ferent grades of sugar, the beet
causing more froth in the max
ing Of syrup, investigation lead
ing to the conclusion that this
was due to the fact that the
granulation of the beet sugar was
much finer than that of the cane,
therefore causing more air to be-
come entangled during the stir
ring than in the case Of the cane
sugar.
Finally, he says, we must ad-
NIT that the industry is quite be-
yond the experimental stage, and
has become a reality in this
country, and factor worthy the
attention Of the people. It is
highly desirable that the use Of
beet sugar should be encouraged
in every way possible, and that
such mistaken ideas relative to
the superiority of cane sugar
over the beet, as indicated at the
outset of this discussion, should
be corrected.
