A. A. Moore resumed his place on
the skirmish line when the next tales
man, Percy Z. Haslett Of 1861 Clay
street. was called. Haslett is a ware
houseman who came to San Francisco
eight years ago from New Zealand, and
who. unfortunately for his chances OF
becoming a juror. had talked to Heney
several times and had voted for Dis
trict Attorney Langdon- His answers
led Moore to indulge in some unusual
questions which he had tried out on a
previous taIesman and which had evil
IDENTIFY ranked in Heney's mind
In case YOU were accepted as a
juror" asked Moore. would it be OBJ
noxious or unpleasant to you to return
a verdict that might not please Mr..
Henoy?"
Heney waited for Moore to pause. but
before the talesman could answer he
broke in:
is that your experience with jurors,
Mr. Moore. that they go on juries to
oblige their friends with their YER
diets
The question was asked quietly and
In "A low tone Of voice, but it aroused
Moore's wrath. Only for a minute, how
ever. and then he had control over HIM
self again He started to put another
p question. and then changed his mind
and asked Heney if the query had beg /
meant for himself or the court.
You answered Heney.
II won't answer it," began Moore,
and then he hesitated and turned again
To the court: My question was per
1ectly proper. your honor"
Judge Lawlor failed to enthuse over
The difference of opinion or eyen to pay
particular attention 10 it. He had moth
ing to say. and so after a minute the
matter was dropped by mutual consent
an around. Haslett had been waiting
Tor an opportunity to say that he had a
decided opinion concerning Calhoun's
guilt or innocence which it would take
good deal Of testimony to remove
and when given the chance he did say
it, He was promptly challenged by
Moore and excused.

Colonel FiInIer Examined

George flimer, formerly colonel OF
the first infantry, \. G. c., was the
fifth man subjected to examination and
is stilI in the jury box awaiting a
questioning by Heney. Colonel Filmer
who is now interested in an electro
type plant, declared that his efforts
always had been to prejudice no one
and that being a believer in the pre-
sumption Of innocence as attaching TO
a man accused of crime he could ex-
tend this presumption to Calhoun. He
said that his only knowledge Of the
case had been gained from newspaper
reading and that he could vote guilty
or innocent" on the evidence alone.
Colonel Filmer was an officer in the
same regiment with former Supervisor
Boxton during the Spanish war and
also knew Ruef and former Supervisor
sanderson personally, but said that his
relations with these men would not in
Gacnce him in any way in his decision
as a juror concerning Calhoun's guilt.
IS the first talesman to declare that he
had no fast bound opinion. Colonel
D amer was rewarded bA DelnS passed
by Stanley Moore without challenge.
Earlier in the day he had sought to
be excused from service, but was told
by Judge Lawlor that it would be
necessary for his to present certifi-
cate Of militia service from the adju-
tant general of the state. The matter
was not reverted TO again, but unless
such an excuse should be presented be-
fore his examination is completed it
IS probable that it would be effective.
1t was o'clock when Colonel Fill
mer was passed by the defense, and
Judge Lawlor ruled that the examina-
tion b. the prosecution should be post
poned until this morning. Before ad-
Journment he carefully admonished the
talesmen in the jurybox and all venire-
men summoned for service not to dis
cuss the case nor read any reference to
81 in the public prints.

SAILING ON LAND.

The wind is to be utilized for travel on land. A German inventor has de- vised sail vehicle that makes fair progress along roads. Its features are lightness and effective steering apparatus. It consists of light framework supporting a saddle and q mast for the sail ard resting upon four wheels. one wheel on either side and one before and one behind. The two latter are of a larger diameter than the former. and all are far apart. as is the practice with automobile wheels The chief pcculiarity in the device is the connection of the wheels with one another. The rear wheel and the right side wheel are rigidly connected together. and the same is the case with the front wheel and the left side wheel. The two connecting bars are joined with each other by means of an axle or cross bar. the attachment at each end being of a hinged type. A person sitting on the saddle rests his feet on this trans verse axle. and by suitable pressure can alter at once the relation of the wheels to the main axle of the franc work. This arrangement. furthermore, leaves his hands completely free for adjusting the position of the sail or uSipv a hrake

ONE PHOENIX "MASHER'

There is one young man in Phoe- nix who vii! never be ''masher' any more. So he sa.-s and so he thinks now He was standing at the corner of Jefferson and First avenue when a lady whom he did not know passed. He addressed her lightly by an en- 6saring title and asked her if she would not take walk with him. h. stead, she turned and went back in ttc direction whence she had come, to V here two men were standing. Ore was her husband and the other was D.puty Sheriff McCann.

There was no denial. The young man admitted the story told by the officer. Neither the lady nor her husband had come along but that was unnecessary. for the young man was ready to plead guilty without further fornality.
 The justice said that it was his in- clination to give the masher 100 days. but in his present state of mind he would not impose the sentence. He would commit the young man to jail and later. after having talked with the woman who had been insulted he would name the number of days: it should be left entirely to her.
 There was a want of regularity about the proceeding from the begin ming. There had been no complaint and there was no formal commitment. The young man was locked up and left in jail over night, and so far as the

HOW IT HAPPENED

The reason that only one section of The Republican was received on the town routes yesterday is difficult to determine The papers come to Tempe from the Phoenix office in an automo- bile in two separate sections and are stuffed here by the local carriers. Yesterday morning when the carriers arrived where the papers are deposited by the Phoenix carrier. but one sec ton was to be found. Either the sec ond sections were lost en route or were stolen after arriving here. It was an unfortunate accident and every effort will be made to see that it does not occur again.
