FOund-!An Ideal Juror.
Louisville -Journal)

(Louisville Couricr-Joumal.)
In the trial OF a murder case at
Mlnot S. d., trc other day the at
torncys found a juror who was "the
real thing" He had not read any
newspaper accounts OF the murder
he never took no interest in news
paers.' He had never heard OF
President Taft and he did not know
the meaning Of the word tariff. He
believed he had heard tell" of Mr..
Roosevelt; sort O thought Roose-
welt was a soldier, but had most
forgot what it was he had heard
about him.
or course such a juror was ac-
cepted. lie didn't have any opinions
about anything else so far as was
developed by the examination. The
attorney for the defense remarked
that he was IAN ideal juror" and
the judge grimly responded, "at any
event he knows nothing about the
case" Further the Judge said no
but from the surface indications it
is to be inferred that he thought a
great deal.
1t is probable that the attorney
for the defense was in earnest when
he referred to this homesteader from
the bad lands as an ideal Juror"
Attorneys for the defense not infre-
quently exhaust all their legal re-
sources in tnc effort to secure jurors
of that sort.

CARRIED TWENTY IN BALLOON.
Zeppelin Inauguratcs Aerial Express
and Passenger Service.

Duss nldorf, Germany, June 23.--
The first regular line of dirigible air
ship transportation was inaugurated
yesterday, when Count Ieppelin's
dirigible Deutschland, carrying 20
passengers, successfully made the
first scheduled trip from Friedlichs-
hafen to this city, distance OF 800
miles, in nine hours.
The weather was perfect and the
motors worked faultlesslv. The av-
course was Approximately 33 miles
an hour. but from Friedrichshafen
and Stuttgart the l2i miles was COW
cred at an average rate of speed of
for a single hour was 1921 miles.
The passengers were some of the di-
rectors of the Elamburgh-Amer
Steamship Company and the German
Stock Company, Joint owners Of the
dirigible, and guests. They occu-
pied the mahogany-walled and car
peted cabin situated between the gon-
dolas. From the windows they view
ed the scenery as the aerial car swept
along.
The hour and minute OF the prob
able passing Of the various points
had been bulletined ahead, so that
not only the people OF the towns
along the line filled the streets. but
inhabitants OF all the intermediate
villages turned out and cheered en-
Enthusiastically as the immense tor
pedo-like structure with its whistling
screws, drove over their heads at a
height of between 200 and 800 feet.

THE VALUE OF SLEEP,
This Man Could Not Sleep for About
Twenty Years.
est. Louis TimeS.)


weird, tragic epic in the news story
telling how man in Pennsylvania,
having been struck by lightning, was
unable to sleep for twenty years, and
how at last he died, grateful for the
belated sleep which came to him.
The clever writer's who have evolt-
ed PHILOSOPHERS from clothes and
other proSaic things have overlooked
an obvious opportunity in the phe-
nomenon of sleep, which is almost
our most treasured privilege, yet
which receives SO rarely the tribute
which it deserves.
Shakespeare, who touched all sub
jects. refers with grand forlornness
to sleep, that knits up the rcvell'd
sleeve Of care" but for the most part
the poets and philosophers have been
silent on this subject which suggests
strange and incomprehensible things.
Only the doctors have wrestled with
the problem eNtensively--and almost
without avail
But there can be no doubt that life
would speedily lose its SAVIOR if the
beneficent sandman were to forget
us.
1t is not the body alone that longs
for rest after few hours cXertion;
the mind, no less insistently. de-
mands the bliss of oblivion, after the
worlds waves Of sensation have left
a certain number Of impressions.
We would all be race of cynics
and pessimists If We could not forget
all things once in every 24 hours.
and greet the day afresh, after the
world and its panorama has been
effaced from the eyes.
The man about town" is cynic
not because he Is wayward in mind
or in morals, but because he sleeps
too little, and sees too much Of the
world. And one who sleeps too
much may be a dullard--but what
capacity he has for the simpler Joys
OF life.
ing paragraph of the story telling Of
the death Of this man who could not
sleep for twenty years
1.-TWO nights ago he called his wife
TO his bedside. Thank heaven,
think I'm going TO fall asleep he
said. He never wakened."
II the doubterS be right. and there
not still be pacifiod by the thought Of
that long sleep, some day, when the
sound OF childron's voices shall drift
up into the burial ground, and robins
shall come to sing mathis and YES
pcrs TO the rising and the setting
sun?

Him may be elaborated. but cannot be

passed him by.
Then came the Samaritan, who bound
up his wounds took him TO a place OF

his neighbor, his brother. He possessed
