The launch and all the dories were

pressed into service and loaded. The
boats were towed ashore. Only few
reached Annootok itself. for the wind
increased and troublesome sea made
haste matter of great Importance.
Things were pitched ashore anywhere
on the rocks where landing could be
found for the boats.
The splendid efficiency OF the launch
proved equal TO the emergency, and in
the course Of about three hours all was
safely put on shore in spite of threat
ening winds and forbidding seas.

Many daily habits, particularly Of

In this way Ill health is often fas-

Il had been allowed to drink coffee
ever since ] could remember, but even
as a child I had a weak stomach.
which frequently refused to retain
food.
"The taste Of coffee was in nv
mouth all the time and was, as found
out later, the cause of the stomach re-
belling against food.
Il now see that it was only from fol-
lowing the example Of my elders that

habit of drinking coffee. My digestion

A Colorado state official wants the
parents punished when the child is de-
linquent, ON the theory that it is the
fault of the parent. That would be a
grand revenge for children after all
of these years of engagement with
barrel slaves and skate straps. How
ever, it would be hard on the parents.
as it would NEAR that there would be
no part Of their life free from
punishments. Most Of the parents

would have TO stand it at both ends.
Their only hope for relief would be in
becoming grandparents as speedily as

INTO THE WOODS
FOR COOPER JURY
JUDGE HART ANNOUNCES HE
WILL SUMMON MEN FROM
THE TAX LISTS.
CITY MEN ARE NOT WANTED
Second Venire Is Almost Exhausted,
With Only Seven in the Box
Charges Preferred Against
Talesmen.

Nashville, Tenn.-With seven men
in the jury box, selected to try
Colonel Duncan Cooper, Robin Coop
err and John Sharpe for the murder OF
Senator Carmack, both sides started
off Tuesday in an earnest effort to dis
pose of the panel of veniremen INT
complete, if possible, the jury. 1t was
generally conceded that another We
nire will be necessary, possibly sew
eral more, before IL unbiased Jurors
are secured.
Of the men left on the list to be ex-
amined, SO per cent are residents OF
Nashville, and both sides are anxious
to keep city men off the jury. There
are fewer than 5000 qualified tales
mems names left for the jury box,
and Judge Hart was asked what he in
tends to do when this list Is exhaust
ed, as it is likely to be, in view of
recent developments, before a jury Is
selected.
To Take the Tax Rolls.
II will take the tax rolls" he said,
land summon men from them. This
will give me a chance to select remote
countrymen, and they are the men
who are likely to be best fitted to
qualify. If this is done, it will estab-
fish a record for Tennessee"
Judge Hart is expected to fix
Wednesday as the time for hearing
the case of Juror Leigh, whom the
state wishes disqualified. He expects
Wednesday will be an "off" day, as
the sheriff will be summoning venire-
men, and he will, if that proves to be
the case, give a hearing OF The
charges against Leigh.
These charges have created an ugly
situation. Leigh has many friends
who resent the allegations contained
in the states affidavits that he Is an
habitual drunkard, and are threaten
ing reprisals against the private de
t~ectives who make them.
More than one of Leigh's relatives
declare they will help him resent the
charges when he is released from jury
duty. Leigh knows nothing of this
tempest in a teapot" He Is still
locked up In the jury room and the
first intimation he will have that all
is not as it should be will be when he
Is brought into court and the allega-
lions are read to him.
His friends have rendered the ser
vices of Is witnesses to counsel for
the defense to refute the prosecutions
charges. The state promises to call
fully as many to s~ubstantiate it's con
tention.
The allegations against others OF
the men sworn as jurors are still be
ing prepared and will hardly be pre-
sented to Judge Hart before the last
of the week.
