Jurors and NEWSPAPERS.

During the selection OF a jury I'm a
Missouri court "A few days ago one of
the lawyers, with the evident pur-
pose OF challenging, asked a enire-
man II he had read the accounts OF
The ca G in the newspapers. The
question is q familiar one, and may
be heard in many courts when there
Is a criminal case on trial that has
aroused a good deal OF interest in
the communi .ty The Missouri iudg
in this instance would not permit
the veniIman 20 answer the question
and turning TO the lawyer said
What's the difference If he has read
the newspapers? He'll make the bet
ter juryman. To say that man
ought not TO serve because he has
read the newspaper account is say
ing in effect that a jury OF intelh-
gence is objected TO. That is not
justice; neither is IL law"
IL sometimes occurs that o jury
OF int ligence is not wanted. A
tricky lawyer with a poor cause will
endeavor 10 get on the jury as many
ignorant men as he can. because
isnorent men are the most easily
moved by specious pleadings The
position taken by the Missouri Judge
might well be assumed IN other
Courts.-Sa Savannah News.

C. s. SULLIVAN
WILL TEST Law
MOVING PICTURE MAN ARREST
ED AT lsHPEMING FOR CON-
QUOTING THEATER ON
SUNDAY.

| A warrant was issued yesterday az.
ternoon from Prosecuting Attorney
Relrs office for the arrest of c. :
sullivan of Calumet, proprietor of the
ROYAL theater in the Voelker block
charging him with violating the state
law. when he opened his theater for
business Sunday afternoon and even
ing. says Ishpeming department OF
the Mining Journal The complaint
was made by Marshal w. II. Trevar-
McCorkindale.
The Royal Theater company. of
which Mr.. Sullivan is manager, con-
ducts two moving picture theaters in
the copper country, both of which give
performances on Sunday. Before de
Gliding TO give performances last sun
day Mr. Sullivan was assured by City
Attorney A. w. Jurma that he could
not be forced To close the house, as
such a step could not legally be taken
by the Ishpeming officers, inasmuch as
the conduct of his business was not a
advised, however that i'm the event he
opened his theater he would undoubt-
eddy be arrested the following day.
This was satisfactory to Mr. Sulli-
van. as he desires to test the law, i'm
order that he will know what steps
to take in the future with reference TO
the conduct Of his business.
The question Of allowing moving
picture theaters, as we'll as other play
houses. to open on Sunday has been
brought into the courts i'm many of the
states in recent years The supreme
court of Colorado. also the supreme
court in Minnesota, recently handed
down decisions to the effect that the
giving OF moving picture entertain
ments is not a violation of the law,
so long as the pictures are not an inn
moral character.
The warrant was served upon Mr.
Sullivan last evening and he says he
intends to fight the case. He will ask
for a jury trial in the municipal court
and i'm case the jury decides against
him he will appeal. He will be repre-
scented by Attorneys T. ]. Dundon OF
this city and p. II. O'Brien of Calu-
met. Mr.. O'Brien recently won two
similar cases in the copper country
instituted against proprietors of thea
ters there.

the use of shells exploding outside OF
such plate.
This latter test has just been COM
pleted and has demonstrated conclu-
sively TO me that an outside explosive
shell exploding against the ship at any
range, and even without velocity, will
destroy il.
"Now, as il would be absurd to
present the effects Of "A shotgun on
man as an argument for arming our
troops with such weapons in the place
of long-range rifles, so also is II alb
surd To oppose the effect of nrmor-
piercing shells which have only IL
mited range of efficiency to the effect
OF a shell which is efficient at the ex-
tremes range of the gun.
One Ship Could Conquer.
1.-The practical result made availa-
BILE by the Puritan tests is the knowl-
edge made public that a single ship of
2S knots. armed with guns capable of
being elevated to give a range of say
$4,000 yards and supplied with an
abundance of ammunition which a
thinner armor would permit, could Sc
lect and maintain such a position of
attack on the high seas that even our
whole navy if brought into the fight
would be destroyed without this YES
sci being brought into even the range
of our ships guns.
General Miles and Major 1. N.
Lewis urged the advantages of such
tactics when advocating the adoption
of my shell before congress more than
10 years ago. Other progressive Off
GERS have continued to do since then.
The Russo japanese war emphasized
the value of the claims made and the
present test has furthei ,orroborated
them in this country; and il would
seem that it is about time that the
facts were brought clearly to the at
tention of the public especially since
we are spending millions of dollars
annually upon defensive construction
along lines that are known and have
been proven by tests and actual war
fare to be as Anticipated as the flint
lock musket."

Clever Dick Rt Last Must Remain In

Has Tricked Him.

Police Patrol Driver Elmer Lane has at
last contrived scheme that Dick, the
bright and mlschievous horse. appears to
be unable 10 fathom when he wants TO
hberate himself from the stall. Lane
found II impraoticable to change the loca-
ton Of the pulley rope that released the
stall door latohes and let the horses run
to their places under the harness This
was the rope Dick would patiently work
until he could reach and release the fasten-
Ing Lane thought he had the problem
solved when he moved the rope several feet
from the stall and left the end dangling in
the air seven teet Irem the floor when
Dick found he couldn't reach Il he snorted
in disgust, and the blast OF air set the
rope swinging This gave the horse an
idea and when Lane went upstairs Dick
blew At the rope in rhythmic blasts until
he caught the swinging end IN his teeth,
pulled the levers. nberAting himself and
his mate, and dropping the suspended har-
ness to the floor.
When Lane came down 10 investigate
the uprOar Dick was the happiest horse in
Council Bluffs, and Lane SAYS the creature
actually showed him how the trick was
worked Lane then got section OF rubber

Now Dick can bite that and pun At II
without affecting the rope, and Lane be.

Police in Search
For GilkiSonS
Couple Wanted on Charge of Solicit
ing Funds for Hospital With
out Authority.

Warrants were yesterday morning placed
In the hands OF the police detectives for
the arrest OF Mr.. and Mrs. y. r. Gilkison
charging them with obtaining money under
false pretenses in connection with the an
nual publication Of the Jennie Edmundson
Memorial hospital The warrants were
based on infOrmatiOns filed In police court
by the hospital authorities
Il is charged by the hospital people
that Mrs. Gilkison is the woman who has
been soliciting advertisements which she
alleged were to be Inserted in the annual
report OF the hospital association and
collecting in advance upon the contracts
secured from business men. 1t Is asserted
that Gilkison assisted in this work ana that
az least one Of the spurious contracts was
made by him. Among the business firms
so far discovered to have been YcumiEed
are Groneweg q schoentgen, w, A. Maurer,
the Council Bluffs Savings bank ]. F.
Wilcox the Empkie-shugart-Hn company,
Schneider & Mueller, City National bank,
Meneray Nursery company, the John Beno
company, Peterson g. SchoeninG, j. B,
Long & Co., Keys Bros.. Edison 8. Damon
and Louis Cutler. and It is believed there
are others.
on many of these contracts advance
payments were secured, amounting from
50 to So. Some OF the advertisers paid in
checks drawn in favor Of the hospital. and
some Of the checks have turned up endorsed
by the GlllOisons. The annual report book
let has been out some time and the hospi-
tai authorities say they have authorized
no persons to solicit business for It or
make collections.
Gilison has been about town more or
less for the last two years. When he
first came here he secured financial &C
commodRtions from several business and
professional men to buy the Weekly Times
then a labor paper. He endured good
deal of financial grief. which involved
some OF his acquaintance, and year ago
last September the paper failed for lack
of ability on the part OF Gilkison TO pay
the printers bills IL was taken over
and reorganized and Gilkison left town
He returned and attempted to promote the
Eagles street carnival. but was removed
| from it's management

SIS East Pierce street. They have MOI
been found at their home, although three
OF their children are there. The Officers
say they have been out Of town for severa-
days.
