From Some "reminiscences" By william L ROsaH.
Of Richmond.
One incident Of the year 1873 In which I
played a leading part made q great noise
at the time Miss Mary Triplett. one OF
the most beautiful women ever created
by the Almighty, was at that time a
reigning belle in Richmond Page Nc

All at once Miss Mary broke OF with him

possibly a year When she returned she
would not speak to McCarty and would
never afterward have anything TO do with
him. We had a german club that met
once in two weeks. The club was usually
led by reckless. bright, audacious fei-
low named Sprigg Campbell At one OF
their meetings Campbell contrived q fig

Triplett together for a dance. I; was a

JURIES IN ENGLAND.
They Get Through Their Work Quickly
and With Little Fuss.

They Get Through Their work Quickly
and With Little Fuss.
The working Of the British jury sys-
TEN exhibits a marked contrast with
that of our own. 1t is possible that my
experience in British courts was ex-
ceptional, but in not single instance
did l see a juror challenged or reject
ed. In all of the courts requiring ju-
ries the necessary number of men
were present. and they were sworn in
without question. In the sheriff's dep
uty court in Scotland the presiding
Judge gave notice to the jury that he
expected to adjourn the court at 2
o'clock and stated that If they could
all remain until that hour he would at
once dismiss the men who had been
called for a second panel. The jurors
conferred together and decided to re-
main till 1 o'clock, whereupon the
judge notified the other men to appear
at 1890 The one jury impaneled for
the morning session rendered six YER
diets in cases involving prosecutions
for thefts, fraud and burglary.
In the court of quarter sessions at
Taunton. England, saw single jury
in one day render eleven verdicts. l
found that 1t was customary in the
several sorts of court that l attended
for the same jury to act in successive
cases. In no instance did I see a jury
leave their seats to make up their YER
dict. Usually the issue before them
was made so plain that all who gave
attention knew in advance what the
decision would be. I made note of an
exceptional instance Of delay when the
court was forced to wait nine minutes
for the report Of the jury. In this case
the judge who gave the instructions
was himself in doubt as to what the
verdict ought to be.
A Scottish jury consists Of fifteen
persons, and a majority may render a
verdict. In England the number is
twelve. and unanimity is required. But
I noted no difference as to practical
results in the two countries. The
twelve men in the English jury were
as prompt and certain in their action
as were the eight out Of fifteen in the
Scottish jury.-McClure's Magazine.

ABOARD A SUBMARINE.
The Crew, the Work and the Kind Of
Life the Men Lead.

The Crew, the Work and the Kind Of
Life the Men Lead.
Life aboard a submarine is not so
unpleasant or dangerous as one might
imagine, but 1t is entirely different
from that led on other types Of ships.
The crew, usually consisting Of two
officers and fourteen men, is selected
from volunteers after a most rigid
medical examination. Service rarely
extends beyond period Of two years,
and real work on a submarine is limit
ed to about three weeks in the sum-
mer and one in the winter. During the
remainder of the time the men live on
a parent" ship or on shore. The boat
is, however, put through the various
evolutions once every week.
The first impression on entering a
submarine is one of heat, the air being
rather close and heavy, but the men
soon become accustomed to 1t. Stand
ing room space is about six and one
half feet, and toward both ends the
boat tapers away almost to a point.
There are no portfolios. The hatchway
In the coming tower is the only aper-
ture. Under water electric light is
used. There are ventilators, but when
the boat dives they are shut of with
cap.
Life on board a submarine is essen
TALLY "in common" The way men
and many objects are crammed to-
gether in narrow space is almost
miraculous.
Cooking is done in an electric oven,
and no foods which have a strong or
disagreeable smell are used. OF course
smoking is allowed only when on the
surface and then on the bridge. Ow-
ing to the character of the men select
ed discipline is perfect.
There is scarcely any noise in sub
marine when submerged. The greatest
depth the boat descends does not ex-
coed thirty feet. At that depth her
speed is about knots. The air is
quite "breathable" for four hours. but
in case of emergency the crew can re-
main closed in for seventy hours with
out danger.
The men love the life. With the off,
GERS they are as one family, sharing
everything equally, including the dan
gers, which are not much to speak of,
provided every one does his duty.
When the weather is fair there is very
little rolling. In rough weather the
men escape knocking about by holding
on to 'steadying lines."-New York
Press.

II believe that Monterey, Mexico, is
the hottest spot in the world in the
daytime" said an Arizona man. 81
have seen the thermometer register as
high as 100 degrees in the late after
noon. 1t was so hot that the natives
who ventured on the streets would
hug the foot wide shade Of the low
buildings like lichen clings to tree
bark. But here's the funny part Of it:
When the sun sets 1t begins to cool of,
and at night it is positively necessary
to sleep under blankets. The nights
are delightfully."- cool, and presume it
is because one is able to get good
sleep that it is possible to live in that
climate. "-Washington Post
