Also Yarick Gets Lecture on
the Duties of a
Juror.

Yarick is sorry now that he did it
and he won t do it again so long as he
is juror in the conspiracy trial. At
least, that is what he promised Judge
De Bolt yesterday morning when His
Honor had him on the carpet for get
ting drunk last Friday and delaying
the progress of the trial by one whole
day. 1t is probable, too, that Juror
Yarick viii keep his word, for the lee
ture he got from the Judge, IN addition
to the fine that was imposed, ought to
be enough to take the kinks out of al
most any man..
s'Mr. Tariek, :" said Judge De Bolt
yesterday morning as soon as he took
his seat on the bench, "what have you
to say in regard TO your failure to at
tend last friday"
"Well, Your Honor, I haven't very
much to say" replied the juror con-
,tritely. IT happened that fell by the
wayside, that is all. I'm not drink
ing man, but sometimes when I get into
company, I do get a little too much. I
had no idea of showing any contempt
of the court last Friday
care you sober nowa" asked the
Judge
"Yes.''
"Where did You get your liquor?"
"Any place where they sell it,
"I mean, where did you get what
you drank last Friday. The bailiff says
he found you in the Pacific saloon"
"I have no recollection of being
there replied Yariek, "but if Mr..
Hopkins says he found me there, guess
he did. and that must be the place
where I got my liquor
.'Mr. Yariek,'' said the Judge, not
with any great apparent severity,
"you are, or appear to be, an intelli-
gent man. You ought to realize the
rights and privileges you enjoy as an
American citizen and the corresponding
duties they carry with them. Perhaps
there is no duty equal in its obligations
and so vital TO the interests of the
country as jury duty. A juror should
at all times give attention to the evil
dence. He should keep his mind clear
and in a proper manner to receive the
evidence He should avoid all excite
ment, and particularly intoxicating
liquors. 1t may be that you intended
no disrespect to this Court and to your
fellow jurors, but that makes no differ
enee I have always felt that jurors
should have nothing else to occupy their
minds. They should not have news
papers with them to read. I make it
rule never to have a newspaper with
me on this bench. You ought to keep
your minds clear to hear the evidence
and be able to weigh it. A man cannot
do this if he is so forgetful as to do
as you have done. 1t is very fortunate

reference to Mr.. Yarick and his little
jag.

FLOAT BONDS FOR SCHOOL Capitol Heights Wants
 Building. LETTER FROM MIR. DAVE Alderman Tendered His Resigna-
 tion.
  The Managing Director of the Com merciaI Congress Tells of His Idea of the Future of the g
 Municipality.

The new town, Capitol Heights. has started off to do things In regulation form, and their first step will be to float bonds for 6 $25,000 modern school house, The citizens of the town now are, mostly, sending their children to private schools or paying carfare 10 send them all the way into the city, and realize that the paying of a tax on bonds will be individually, cheaper than private school expenses or car fare.
 At the next meetingn of the Town Council the bonds will be ordained and fioated as soon as possible. local in- stitution already having offered to take them over. The idea is to nave . thoroughly equipped school house and curriculum, consisting of kindergar- ten, primary and high school depart ments, and also to have course in manual work.
 In lieu of town hall, the Town Council had confscated the building formerly occupied by the Capitol Heights Development Company. which has passed out of use, since most Of the property has been bought. This little structure is now the council nall of the town fathers and at regular meetings 1t rings with the eloquence of the elders.
 Managing Director G GrosVenor Dave, of the Southern Commercial Con- gress, formerly citizen of Capitol Heights. and a member of the Town Council. has sent his brother Aldermen the following letter:
 MT. Dawe's Letter.

If had known how soon the call to Washington would come. I should not have accepted the honor. As It Is. must now embarrass you and the Aldermen of Capitol Heights by resigning.

INVESTIGATE LAKE
BOARD OF HEALTH MAY NOT PER-
 MT REBUILDING OF DAM.
It Was Intimated At Meeting Satur- day That the County Gould Col- feet Damages For Bridges
 Destruction.

Further existence of the artificial lake at Electric Park depends solely upon the opinion of the County Board of Health, as to whether |or not 1t is conducive to ill-health. The County Board of Revenue. at its meeting yes- terday. decided to gain this opinion, before granting the permission to re- build the dam, which holds back the water of Three Mile branch.
 The lake, because of its nearly stag nant state during the dry months Of summer when. at the same time, the park nearby is most frequented. has been branded as Unhealthy by laymen time and again. But there have been no charges of unsanitary properties by those. who should know. and the Board of Revenue looks to the information.
 The question of the advisability of rebuilding the dam was preached when County Attorney. Watts advised the board that the county had grounds for a suit because of the destruction of the steel bridge over Three-Mile branch on Mount Meigs road. He show ed where the collapse of the dam brought about the subsequent collapse of the bridge. and that the dam was constructed by private parties. who were responsible for its maintenance.
 The board granted him permission to investigate the matter. and to em- ploy expert testimony. If necessary, to determine the exact cause of the col lapse of the bridge.

TOO MUCH SPEEDING
AUTO DRIVERS ARE SCORED BY J.
 w. COOK.
Before Board Of Revenue He Says Thnt the Roads Of the County Are Being Damaged By
 Fast Driving.

That speed mania has found root in the systems of Montgomery motorists, and that the indulgence of the habit makes dangerous travel on the country roads of the county was the complaint of J. W. Cook. a contractor. before the Board of Revenue at its meeting yes- terday
 Not only personal danger, but even danger to the welfare of the road bed comes from the excessive speed as is practiced by many of the automobilists. further declared MT, Cook, who said that when >the cars dash at high speed over the gravelled roads,--their move ment creates suction, which lifts from the road much of its protective covering of dust.
 The upshot of the audience was the instruction of the board, through a res olution, to Sheriff Hood asking him to look to a more strict enforcement of the code sections relative to the speed limit of automobiles, and even to post signs, where necessary.
 The code, sections 6322-24 provide rates of travel. on public roads out side of the Jurisdiction of cities, which vary, according to the proximity of the auto to churches, houses. hedges and curves in the thoroughfares. It is on these dangerous places where the signs will probably be posted.
