Foreman Of Federal Grand Jury Puts
Penalty on Himself.
Members Of the federal grand jury had
the laugh on Foreman James Record of
Glenwood yesterday. incidentally the laugh
cost Mr.. Record the price of a box of
cigars. When the jury was ready to re-
port the indictment against Henry Hoff-
man and was about TO proceed to the court
room one Of the members missed his over
coat.
Some one has got my overcost," said
the owner of the missing garment.
IF anyone of the jury has taken the
coat ] will fine him cigars for the crowd,
declared Foreman Record.
A search for the overcoat proved with
out results and the juror had TO leave the
jury room without II. After the jury had
been dismissed for the day the member
who had lost his overcost happened to be
standing near Mr.. Record and he thought
he recognized his coat on the foreman's
portly form. Turning down the collar he
discovered his name or the garment. Mr..
Record then remembered that he had left
his own coat in the office of the marshal
before going to the jury room.

Mr.. Record. as he escorted the member
Of the jury to the nearest cigar store,
where he paid for a box Of choice Hav-

No Special Election.
Governor Carroll has decided not to order
a special election in the Page-Fremont
district to fill the vacancy occasioned by
the resignation of Senator Jameson. He
has had the matter up with Attorney Gen
eral Byers, who gives it as his opinion that
the statute Is not mandatory. Assuming
that the legislature will not adjourn until
the second week in April it would be i'm
possible for the person elected to serve
more than ten days or two weeks: the law
providing that at least ten days notice
shall be given before the holding of the
election. The expense would perhaps
amount to something like $1,000, and in
view of the short time thai the person
elected would have to serve it is deemed
advisable not to call the special election.

A Story of SLANG.

The British are quicting them
selves about the German invasion hy
turning their attention to the study
of American slang 1t is said that
no other country has reached such a
perfection of cXpreSsivencSs in slang
phrases as the United States, and
the British are much interested in
studying the new language, which is
more Understandable than volapuk,
though at first equally pulling.
a comedy which has had large
run in this country, called THE
Chorus Lady" in. which Rose Stahl
shines, has been transported to
London. 1t is largely an exposition
of American slang. and it was doubt
full if the Londoners would like it
because they would not be able TO
understand it. On the contrary it
has proved immensely popular, both
as Il bright play and as u study in "a
new language, and the Britons have
become greatly interested in it and
American slang is very likely to be
incorporated into English speech.
This will be an interesting develop
ment. 1t will break down a good
many British hconventionaliSmS Some
slang expressions seem to be ncces-
sary to conveya clear, sharp thought
! in condensed form, in about the only
| way it can be presented and have
| full effect 1t is not really a new
language. Nearly all Amerit an slang
can be traced back to early English
expressions. England has simply
forgotten them and now they return
to her as Il fresh, new language, foi
their study and entertainment.
However, American slang is not
likely to become the diplomatic Ian
guage of the world any more than
the language of the baseball field
which puzzles all Americans excep
those who throng the bleachers, anC
who cannot describe the game in an,
other terms.
