The state is determined that Justice

refuge for the participants in the ia

Knots he fined them $50 and costs and
sentenced each to jail for a period of
thirty days. BY this legal baptism the
Garyites figured that they would be
thus placed outside the pale of any
action taken by the grand jury or the

The grand Jury returned its indict-

placed on trial, with the result that the

Castleman
Was Quite Busy

During the examing OF the Jurorss
M. l. Castleman OF Gary
lent the attorneys for the defense valu-
able assistance, being busy every min
ute and appearing to be greatly inter-
ested in the selection of the jury.
A number of the jurors were excused
by Attorney McAleer for having a per-
sonal opinion as to the relative merits
of the guilt of the other defendants
previously tried. THE TIMES was also
frequently mentioned in Attorney Nc
Aleer's interrogations to the Jurors
when he asked them II they read THE

The Jury was selected and sworn in
about $3.50 o'clock yesterday afternoon.
and the second great battle is on. It
it expected that the case will go to the
jury about Friday night. and the trial
may even be extended into next week
as 1t is thought that there will be more
witnesses than in the previous case, and
that the case will be more bitterly con-
tested.
The states attorneys expressed them
selves as being much pleased with the
selection of the jury. Owing to the fact
that so many jurors were excused the
list of impaneled veniremen ran out and
Sheriff Grant was compelled to go out
on the street In search of another jury,

living about four miles south OF Crown

keeping the names of these witnesses

Question
About Jury Duty.

- ne SeleCtlou OF the jury To near the
Rogers case was commenced immediate-
ly upon court converting yesterday az
ternoon. Considerable time was spent
by the attorneys as to whether the
jurors on the Mcbride case would be al
lowed to sit on the Rogers case. Judge
Peterson finally made a ruling that In
his opinion the same issues would be
brought up In the Rogers case as were
used in the Mcbride case (that of pre-
vious jeopardy. and that the jurymeu
had by this time formed an opinion.
Consequently he ruled that the Jurors
could be challenged and dismissed for
cause.
The jurors to hear the Rogers case
were selected by the state with the
greatest care. One by one of the for-
ner jurors were excused until an en-
tirely new jury filed the seats of the
jury box The first juryman to be dis
missed was Albert Huld, who, upon be-
ing questioned. said that he had rela~
tives living in Gary and that he had
paid them a visit last Saturday.

from this long illness was celebrated
with a national thanksgiving on Feb.

Visits to Foreign Lands.
In the summer of 1855 the prince,
with his parents and elder sister, visit
ed France. This was the first time that
an English sovereign, actual or pro-
spective, had entered Paris since the
days of Henry VI. In 1857 the prince
went to Germany and spent four
months in study at Konigswinter. on
the Rhine. In the fall he continued his
travels on the continent, visiting places
in Germany and Italy. At Rome he
was received by Pope Pho Mono. Spain
and Portugal were next visited, and in
July he returned to England. Before
travelling farther the prince finished
his fifth term at Oxford. His education
was completed at Trinity college, Cam
bridge.
In the summer of 1860 the prince
paid a visit to Canada and the United
States. Everywhere he was received

with boundless enthusiasm. He danced
at a ball given in his honor at Wash
ington, where he was cordially well
coined by President Buchanan.
The United States indeed was pre-
pared to receive him with open arms.
At Hamilton. the last place in Canada
where he made a halt, he had spoken
some kindly words, which awoke gen
uine approval here.
"My duties" he said, "as representa-
tive of the queen cease this day, but in
a private capacity l am about to visit
before my return home that remarka-
bic land which claims with US a COM
mon ancestry and in whose extraordi-i
nary progress every Englishman feels
a common interest"
In 1862, accompanied by Dean Stan
ley, he made a journey to the east, in
Guiding visit to Jerusalem. The young
prince was now of maria geable age
Speculation was rife as to who would
be the lady of his choice. The question
was settled in the early part of 1868,
when his engagement was announced
to Princess Alexandra, the eldest
daughter of the king of Denmark. She
was, three years younger than the
prince and. though comparatively Door.

New Ruler Won Popularity as Plain Sailor George

and in many respects wonderful voy-
age.
These gifts not only evidenced the
loyalty of the colonists, but were in
many instances tributes to the great
popularity of the prince throughout his
career. Even when his brother, then
heir presumptive to the throne, was
alive England's "sailor prince was
more in favor than the Duke of Clar-
ence. and indeed his disposition was
altogether different. He has the repu-
tation of having been rather gay when
popularity supposed to be sowing his
wild oats, but in the main, though
Sailor George was at times a bit wild
and boisterous, he was never dissipated
to the extent related of some of his
ancestors in the male line.
Since his marriage he has won the
respect of all classes by his dignified
and sedate bearing on all public occa-
sions, while his private life has been
exemplary. In fact, England may sure
ly be congratulated upon the manner
of man she had in reserve for the royal
succession, and, judging from his past,
his future career will be an honor and
credit to the land over which he has
been called to reign.

set forth the difficult duties of a SOW

he ever delivered. 'It would be pre-
sumptuous to prophesy." he said,

culties of a future king of England.
From this time forward your course
of life, which has hitherto been IN
usually alike, must in many respects
diverge. You will have different occu-
pations and different training for an
expected difference of position. But
brothers united by true affection may
do much to help each other in all diff
culties. though their streams OF life
may flow apart
The words of the worthy archbishop
did not prove prophetic, as recent his
tory has shown, for by the death Of
Clarence Sailor Prince" George not
only stepped into the succession, but
was finally married, on July 6, 1893,
to Princess Victoria May of Teck, to
whom his brother had been affianced
less than three years before. The
wedding took place at the Chapel Roy

ing the uniform of captain in the royal
navy and being supported by his IA

his uncle. the Duke OF Edinburgh.

royal couple, the heir apparent being

In January, 1901, the then Duke of

admiral in her majesty's fleet in an
ticipation of his purposed departure

herself very popular with all classes Of
the British public not only by her out
ward grace of manner, but also by her
virtues and amiability. Her husband
himself always shared in this popu-
larity, although the sterner Puritanism
of his potential subjects had often been
shocked by stories of bis dissipation.
The Prince of Wales marriage to
Princess Alexandra was brought about
in a romantic fashion. a photograph of

of kings and queens. 1t furnished

SAN
There were few better known figures
around London in the season. In the
theater, on the race course or at the
opera he was a frequent visitor. From
the horse show at Islington. the royal
military tournament or the Smithfield
show he was never absent. AS an ag-
riculturist he did much to stimulate
the breeding of all kinds of stock, and
he was himself an exhibitor to be reck-
oned with at all the principal shows.
Short Of stature and heavy of build,
the kings lack of inches was always
a regret to him. When photographed
with his wife, he almost invariably
stood on a stool to make him look tall

was always arranged to permit of this
being done without attracting notice.
His Ideal Men.
An excellent linguist, proficient IN
French. German and Italian and well
able to hold his own in Russian, the
late king long and deeply studied for
eign politics. His heroes in British po-
ntical life were the expansionists Cecil
Rhodes and Lord Kitchener. Many Of
HIS closest friends were colonists, and
colonial ministers have always had a
warm welcome from him. The Impe-
rial institute and the Colonial institute.
the centers of metropolitan colonial
life, were largely the result of his en-
ergy and enthusiasm.
King Edward was probably better
liked personally in France than any
other European sovereign. Certainly
he showed more sympathy with the
French temperament than ever his
mother did. Yet the analysis to which
he was subjected by even friendly
writers In Paris was at least as Gym
zeal as it was appreciative. One of
them, writing Of him as the king, said:
HE is made up of antitheses and
contradictions. Physically YOU know
him-a body which ought to have the
strength of a giant and which has not
lost the gracefulness of youth; hand
which seems ready TO crush and yet
has not always the force to squeeze;
step that is sonorous and yet certainly
does not shake the earth; small ear,
but one acutely open to the thousand
sounds from the four corners of the
globe; blue eye, very gentle and smil-
ing, whiclS behind watchful brows

beyond the visible horizon, but stops
always. on the nearest objects; good

The people of Great Britain are to be
congratulated on their good fortune in
possessing at a critical moment OF the
command their entire confidence and
respect. The British populace have
watched with an anxiety no one not a
Briton could understand the increase
of the royal family by birth and it's
defamation by death until all their
hopes have been conferred upon the
man who stood next in succession to
Edward VII. and who, with a mere
change of title, would become ''of the

ireland and of the British dominions

faith, emperor of India" and until as

movement has been watched with in

born to King Edward and Queen Alex
andra when they were, respectively,
prince and princess of Wales. one boy
died at childbirth, and the eldest, the
Duke of Clarence, died in January,

second son.
Born In 1855.
Prince George. after the death of his
elder brother heir presumptive and
after the death of Queen Victoria
heir apparent to the throne, was born
at Marlborough House, London, June 3,
1855, only seventeen months after the
Duke of Clarence, and was christened
at Windsor the month following. From
his earliest years destined for the navy
as well as preferring it from inclina-
ton, George was entered as cadet
on board II. NJ. S. Britannia at Dart
mouth when. eleven years of age, and
in 1879 he and his brother began a
cruise around the world in the Bac-
chante. The schooling of the young
princes went on while they were voy
aging, and in 1880 both were rated as
midshipmen, the event being cele-
brated by their shipmates in minstrel
performance.
