The dredger Governor, which has
been engaged for some time on the

that the dipper arm was not long
enough to excavate the depth required
by the contract, and a new dipper arm,
five feet longer than the old one, has
been put in place. In the same way

CHARGE
To GRAND JURY
Principles of System-Duties
Laid Down Special Term
Opens.

Judge Sanford b. Dole yesterday aft
ernoon delivered his charge TO the grand
Jury for the special February term of
the United States District Court. In
part he said:
COMMUNITY CONSCIENCE.
Gin a sense the grand jury may be
said to be the conscience of the COM
munity. Sitting apart from the tur-
MOL of business and the distractions
of social excitements, it enjoys status
which promotes a sensitiveness in re-
lation to those acts which are ineon-
sistent with individual or public rights
and so tend to subvert the laws and
thereby prejudice the interests of So
ciety. In its representative capacity
it carries large responsibilities in rela-
tion to the welfare of the body polite,
which sense Of responsibility can hard
ly fail to promote watchfulness toward
criminal developments as hostile to such
welfare, and that sentiment of fair play
which would protect persons charged
with the commission VI offenses against
the laws, from publicity and the odium
of public trials, except upon probable
cause supported by competent evidence
sufficient, unless contradicted or other
wise explained, to warrant a convie-
ton.
AN EDUCATIVE AGENCY.
''This representative quality of the
grand jury is a most important ele-
ment in the value of its work, where
by the public is kept in touch with
the proceedings of the criminal side of
the court. 1t is highly probable that
in those systems where the prosecuting
officer has the responsibility of bring
ing indictments, the work is generally
as well done by such an officer as by
the average grand jury, but the sec
OndaFy benefit tc the community is lost
that effect on public sentiment which
comes from the pubnc taking part in
and assuming some of the responsible
ties of criminal proceedings against vio-
lators of laws. as is the case under the
grand jury system. The operation of
this system has an educative influence
upon the body of citizens from which
the jurors are drawn, gradually &C
quainting it with the principles and
objects of the criminal laws and the
methods by which they are enforced,
thereby intoxicating a respect for good
laws and developing critical intelli-
gence as to defective OR unjust legisla-
tion, which must favorable affect pub
lie sentiment and eventually the law
making authority. The effect of a Sc
rious recognition by the citizen of the
supremacy of law, it need hardly be
said, is of the utmost value in the pro-
motion of civil order and the protec-
tion of national and private interests.
DUTIES IN GENERAL.
Reminding them that they were the
representatives of the community in
the matter of investigating charges of
offenses against laws of the United
States, the court emphasized the re-
sponsibility of the grand jurors in their
duty of indicting those against whom
there was prima facie evidence and
of diseharging those charged upon in
sufficient evidence 'free of suspicion
or loss of reputation" and in this con-
nection the Importance of the rule of
secrecy was urged. 1hother reason for
secrecy was its promotion of the free

So we find the susceptible George

once: Sally" the "Lowland Beauty"
and Miss Mary Cary, which recalls the
story OF the man who could never
shoot a bird, because Just as he had
aimed and was ready to shoot at one
bird another bird flew in the way.
In 1853 Lucy Grymes, the Lowland
Beauty, married Henry Lee and be-
came the mother of Lighthouse
Harry" the Custer of the revolution.
One of Washington's most serious
love affairs was with Miss Mary Cary,
and there is no doubt that she was in
love with him, but her father pre-
vented the marriage by handing out
the Alaskan negative.
Miss Cary afterwards married a
young swell, Edward Amber, who
died young, and his pretty widow was
often guest at Mount Vernon after
Washington's marriage. The Cary
romance extended over several years,
but In the meantime there were
others. 1t Is consoling to know that
Washington was human enough to oc-
casionally do something amateurish,
and the thing he fell down on hardest
was writing poetry. The following
was composed when he was major
and about 20 years old. 1t was ad.
dressed to Miss Betsy Fauntleroy:

THE LOVE AFFAIRS OF
GEORGE WASHINGTON
BY VALERIE HOPE


We are so accustomed to pictures
Of George Washington In a rigid atti-
tude, with sternly compressed lips
and generally forbidding expression,
that we forget he was ever young and
human being of flesh and blood like
the rest OF us.
Instead of being a cold-blooded
prig Washington was magnetic in per.
sonality and great social favorite.
He was the finest horseman in Vir-
ginia, an exceedingly graceful dancer
and a dandy In ruffies, gold lace, vel
vet silk stockings and diamond
buckles. who caused furry In femi-
nine hearts whenever he appeared.
Young Washington was always fall
ing In love, and after his engagement
to Mrs. Custis was announced his
mother wrote to friend: II have had
great deal of trouble with George
but 1t is all over now" His first at
tack of the heart occurred when he
was 15 years old, and the object OF
his affections was Miss Frances Alex
ander, aged II, whose fathers plan
tation adjoined Mount Vernon.
Imagine him pining and signing and
grating his teeth In despair, just like
any young American lover in these
days! 1t Is amusing now, but at that
time 1t was very serious matter to
George Washington! Not much is
known Of this courtship. and soon
after he lost his heart to Miss Lucy
Grymes, whom he often referred to
afterward Gs his "Lowland. Beauty
About this time Washington wrote
letter to Dear Sally" in which he
said: II am almost discouraged from
writing to you as this is my fourth to
you since l reed any from yourself. !
