CITY AGAIN SWELTERS IN
GRIP OF WARM WAVE.
And It's Going to Be Hotter, if
the PROHIBITS Are Right.

FNewark is again sweltering in the
embrace of a warm wave, which the
prophets promise will be warmer yet.
The intense humidity today is doing
more than its share in contributing to
the general discomfort. When intense
humidity and great heat develop team
work, they can start a great deal Of
dissatisfaction with the weather.
With the forecast for tonight and to-
morrow, fair and warmer. the likeli-

WOMAN In
JURY BOX

Dos Angeles, Cal, 21-FOr the first
time in the judicial history Of Califor-
MIA, woman was sworn in today as
a juror in the superior court of this
city. Mrs. Johanna Engelman, the
woman in question, however, has not
been judicially classified as juryman,
or iurywoman. But today in Judge
Hcuser's court, she took the first hur-
dies in the local handicap as the only
woman entry in the race to determine
whether woman is the peer Of man
iii a jury box.
Mrs. Engleman appeared early IN
court with a crowd of disgruntled men
who had been drawn as trial jurors.
She wore monoplane hat, which tilted
jauntily over her amiable face. and she
wore Taft smile. Her kindliness had
a perceptible effect on the atmosphere
or the courtroom.
Naturally, as being the first woman
ever called for jury service in the
state, Mrs. Engelman was the center
or curiosity, but this did not perturb
her. Mrs. Engelman looked amiable.
No man who had stolen tamale could
look at her without hoping she would
be on the jury to try him. But no man
who had beaten his wife OF stolen a
half million dollars could look at her
without the sensation of peril. were
she to have a word in the verdict.
Hardly had the judge taken his sea
when a torrent Of excuses-from men
reached his ear. The case at issue
was that Of Florence E. Martin against
the Los Angeles Railway. After an
extremely polite but quizzical examina
ton BY attorneys for the plaintiff
Judge Houser frankly said that he
could see no reason why a woman
should not serve on jury and that 4
she was challenged solely on account
OF her sex, he would deny the motion
to excuse her.

Guthrie. Oct. 21.-The Oklahoma
state board of agriculture finds that
217 .s57 square bales and 1927 round
bales OF cotton were ginned in Okla
homa from the crop of 1909 up to and
including the close Of business on Oct.
/! In arriving a. these figures. he
lCard has received reports from s6S
gins and las added to this number
121 gins that fpiled t. report at this
time. but which had reported the
amount ginned up to the first Of DC
toter. The revised report ci the gin
Hinss % Oct. showed 1900 square
bales and 1893 round bales. showing
that there have been ginned during the
first half Of October 103,s4S square
bales and 1874 round blles. Count
ing as half bales It win be seen that
up to the 18th Of October there have
been ginned 5.47O bales.
On the 18th Of October last season,
according TO the figures OF the United
States census bureau, there had been
ginhed in Oklahoma 1856 bales.
Nearly as much cotton is shown to
have been ginned during the past fif
teen days as was ginned last season
during twenty-three days from Sept
25 to Oct IS. The highest proportion
OF the Oklahoma crop ever ginned tc
this date was 46.7 per cent in 1902
in which season the total crop was
5SO.70s bales on a considerably less
acreage than is the total crop was $50,

following:
First. Our observations have con
vinced us that the best roads are built
under direction Of the state and we
suggest the creation and appointment
Of a highway commission, with author
ity and appropriation to construct and
maintain stale roads
Second. We find that Oklahoma pos
sesses more good road building ma-
terial than any Of the states visited,
and with this condition is losing mil
liens of dollars annually by reason Of
bad roads. The state should cooper
ate with the counties, including local
and lateral roads, with view to estab-
fishing a connected and convenient
system.
Third. Since the constitution Of the
state prohibits the working of prison
ers by contract, we recommend that
provision be made as soon as posi-
bic for working convict labor in con
struction OF state highways.
Fourth. We favor the building, by
the state, OF improved highways across
the state from east to west and from
north to south, cooperating with ad-
joining states with a view to making
them serve as a part Of interstate high
ways
Fifth We believe that state aid
by direct appropriation, in the con
struction Of state-built highways. is
fully justified by the experience Of
all the states that have adopted that
policy.

favorable consideration. and that the
