trict. is now engaged in hearing testimony
preliminary TO deciding a motion to quash

ward Eaton, George Sabin. Herbert Brink,
Thomas Dixon, william Reyes and Charles
rarrls, Tor the alleged murder Of three
sheepmen on April ?, 1909. The latter were
Joe Allemand. Jules Lazler and Joseph
Emge.
n Is the consensus Of opinion here that
the defense won a point by this motion.
The charge is made. under oath, by George
sabin, one OF the defendants. that the
statute governing and regulating the draw
ing Of jurors in this state has been grossly
violated. sabin alleges that Linton, head
OF the jury commission. and Felix Aston,
sheriff for this county. prepared the list
and that Il does not contain all the quail
field electors Of Big Horn county, that out
or L746 qualified electors only 1s1 appear,
The further charge is made that the list
was taken out of it's proper place into the
office Of the sheriff and clandestlnely, un-
lawfully and illegally made up. il is alleged
tina not one person was drawn upon the
jury who lives east OF the Big Horn river
and that one-third Of the qualified electors
nye east of that river. sabin also alleges
that there was not one member drawn on
this grand jury who was a cattleman, but
that some OF the biggest sheepmen were
and that the foreman OF the grand jury
was one OF the largest sheepmen In the
state; that the jury being drawn as II
was, resulted In a body OF men prejudleed
against the cattle industry and against

Laundry work at home would be
much more satisfactory if the right
Starch were used. In order to get the
desired stiffness. it is usually neces-
sary to use SO much starch that the
beauty and f1neness of the fabric is
hidden behind paste of varying
thickness, which not only destroys the
appearance, but also affects the wear
ing quality of the goods. This trou-
BILE can be entirely overcome by using
Defiance Starch, as it can be applied
much more thinly because of its great
er strength than other makes.

Marriage and Meanness.

Some years ago there lived in Atch'
ison a young woman noted for her
good works and gentleness. She was
always helping the poor and was pa.
tent and kind and universally adj
mired. She married a fairly good man
and abused him within three months
She had been good and patient for
years, but husband was too much
for her; she had never been cross to
any one until she was cross to her
husband. There is something about
marriage that stirs up hidden depths
of meanness on both sides.--Atchison
(Kan.) Globe.
