ART OF BEING A JUROR.
Those Who Are Wiling TO Serve Not
Always Competent.

Always Competent.
| Dlficulfy attends The trial by ones
peers. II the peer is capable or
weighing evidence and IS such as
would true deliyerance make, ne
is 100 often eager to avoid the an
nOyance Of jury duty. Many are eX-
empt by the law. more are exemp,
by the facile complaisance OF the
laws administrators.
| Even when the panel is drawn the
litigant or the accused is by no means
sure that the twelve will be his
peers. Panel after panel is exhaust
ed In the yoir dire. and in almost
every case of note yenire must sue
coed venire before the jGry box is
filed
When all the preliminary obstacles
have been overcome, when the twelve
good men and true have been put
upon their oath, not even then IS
trial by jury all that it should be.
Sometimes the juror does. not know
how to be a juror. he seems lacking
in the sense OF what his duties are,
utterly without comprehension of the
dignity OF this solemn function as a
citizen
Twice In this week the course or
justice has been halted in supreme
courts of this vicinity and a mistrial
declared by reason OF the misconduct
OF Il juror. In one case ii juror hau
discussed case with the representa-
tive of the plaintiff. expressed an
opinion on the case so far as pre-
scented. and declared his intention
when the case shCvld be submitted
to the jury. Searching examination
by the court made ii clear that the
was simply that he did not know
how to be a Juror
In the other case-the judge halt
ed the case when he obsei we'd juror
smiling at counsel for the plaintiff
in suit to recover damages for in
jury. Here again it was established
that the jurors act WAS not of wrong
purpose: he also did not know how
to be a Juror.
These are M: two instances. MIS-
trials chargeable To the ignorance OF
jurors ale far more frequent Than
they should be. These are cases
which come to light before the cause
has been given 10 the jury for Its de-
termination. What sins of ignorance
are committed when the jury retires
for the consideration of its verdict
It is impossible 10 reckon; they must
be many.
Yet the instructions TO. the jury
are very direct, very Straightforward:
they should be comprehensive to a
very ordinary intelligence. Such evl-
dence that plain language often tails
to be plain to the average juror may
be thought to lend some weight to
the common opinion that innOcense
is safe with the judge, while gui,t
prefers the iury.-New York Sun.

FAMOUS MoLLYcocpLEs.
Hamlet Was One While Fortinbras
Was a Red Blood.


G. Loves Dickinson. the English
man who has written symposiums on
culture and comments on American
cowboy crudity. and the immortality
of American journalism, as well as
the general insufliciency Of western
civilization as compared with that OF
the Orient. has recently given an in
structiyc discourse on "Mollycoddlcs
and Red BloOds.'
The red blood is the man of action
the molly coddle the man OF the pale
east If thought" Hamlet IS a molly
coddle and FOrtinbras a red blood.
The greater number of artists,
poets ana musicians are mOllycoddles.
Benyenu;o Cellini was an exception.
He was a terrible red blood. but. then,
he was not so very much an artist. IN
spite of the fact that he wrote one OF
the best autobiographies In existence.
But his sculpture was quite unin-
spired
Mollycoddlcs are despised by red
blOods. bui red bloods are admired by
mollycOddles. Women begin by hat
ing and laughing at mOllycoddles. and
end By loving them too well. Molly
cOddles are subtle and insidious, ana
just because they are not controlled
by their red blood, not having any,
they observe and study women, as
they do some other things. more pain
s,akingly than do the red bloods, ana
so ultimately please and fiatter and
sympathize with wOmen's natures III
way that is impossible for red
blOods TO do.
An old definition of an artist COM
priSes the quality Of weakened Vitality
As long as one is full Of red blood
one does not so completely look at
things. In crowd of boys there is
always one who stands aside and
looks on at the play OF the others. lie
is the mollycOddle. He has not
enough red blood to pin In the sport.
but he can admire the name from the
outside. The mollycOddle is often
critic. Oliver HEREFORD once declined
the critic as the man who peeks
through "A hole in the wall to see ana
admire the frOlics of the Graces and
MUSES. disporting themselves in the
beautiful gardens. He is your true
mOllvcOldle.
Most peop'e are red bloods. Some
are mixture of red blood and cOlly-
coddle. There are few Out-and-Oct
molly,oddles. and they are distrnsted
and disl.ked by society. although
there are always some women who
are devoted To them. Ii would be 4
terrible thing. marking the near APP
preach of the last trumpet. If most
pecpl,. were mOllycOddles But few
of them are necessary. They act as
recorders of the meaning of life. They
| are the Greek chorus, alOof from The
drama. commenting upon il, explain
ing the meaning. But they are al
ways in danger Of being stamped out
by the red bloOds. who irate the sight
of them and try to eNterminate them
by all the means IN their power.
That the mOllvcoddles are neces-
sarv to civilization is shown by their
persistercy in the fact of the most
vigorous persecution. They cannot be
suppressed They subtly and palely
endure and insinuate their exasperat-
ing meanings into their rational, vi
aOrous flow of life-NCw York Press.

WANT UNSIGHTLY POLES
 PAINTED OLIVE GREEN
Phoenix IS Now a Forest of Potes.-
 A Remedy Suggested.

The suggestion has been made with in the past few days by people of the residence districts of the city that all telegraph. electric light and telephone poles now adorning the residential districts shall be painted an olive green. while those in the business dis tIicts shall be painted white.
 The subject has been taken up as the result of the forest of fresh. new. and unsightly poles that are now be ing planted by the Home company. lines of them being run up the ave nues. although il was generally sup posed in the beginning that the alley ways would be utilized as far as pos sible instead of the avenues and streets.
 With the competing telephone com panieS and the [ eiectric light poles PhoeniX looks at q distance like q har- Lor filled with sailing vessels. their naked spars standing in perpendicular relief against q green sea of foliage IT the poles are painted green they will at least sink their ugliness in the bakground of trees In the business sections where there is little foliage white seems to be the best color.
 There is d city ordinance now on the books requiring the painting of all poles IL is understood that the color ..tsfl- -Ni is.N mt h ir.4 pole against green background would make it stick out like locomo- tive headlight in fog There is mo- thing beautiful about a telegraph pole and it should he as inconspicuous as possible: therefore green seems to be the proper color for all but the down town section of Phoenix. The ordi- nance could readily be amended to conform with the ideas of the average man and woman who think something uf the beauty of the city as well as the acquisition of all utilities that properly belong to municipalities.
 If public sentiment is in favor of the proposition the city council will be asked to amend the ordinance. n will cost the telephone and electric companies little for green paint but at the same time will tend to pre- serve the poles
 Another suggestion has been made ard that is that when the new sewer system is laid a conduit shall be laid a. the same time that will carry all of the wireing m the city and thus the poles will be eliminated altogether as is done in most of the larger cities
