DOC" McDonough has returned to
Broadway after an absence Of more
than two months, says the New York
Press. He went into retreat on Fri.
day, November 10, 1909. The Doc
is a great believer in lunches. When
he gets bunch good and strong he
plays 1t to the limit.
The DOC" never had stronger
bunch than on that November day.
That It was the thirteenth Of the
month and a Friday was a combina-
ton worthy Of anyone's notice, but
what was more significant to the Doc
was the fact that in one of the races
that day there were 10 horses entered
and one of the 10 had Is letters in his
name.
There was nothing for a man to do
under such circumstances but bet the
bank roll and then lend the family
Jewels to Mr.. Simpson or some other
friend. The Doc let every one In on
the good thing and there was o play
on the 10 horse that day such as there
never was before.
And the bunch was correct. The
horse ran thirteenth.

SELECTING THE

ANOTHER vENIRE OF $50 MEN
Less Than Half the Number Required

Difference AZ to
Scientists"

Kansas City, April 1S.-There's .
broad distinction between Scientists"
and professional witnesses" and At.
torney Frank r. Walsh wants to make
sure that the mind Of every venireman
who may sit in judgment on DR.. b.
Clark Hyde comprehends 1t.
At the outset the chief Of counsel
for the physician accused Of causing
the death OF Col. Thomas H. 6wope
by mixing poison with medicines ad'
ministered, made 1t very plain that he
intended dlscrediting expert opinions
at every turn Of the case.
Attorney Walsh put the question
az to the measure Of credence which
will be given this class Of EVIDENCE
Just as he put all Of the others In his
attempt to reach the mental altitude
Of the venireman toward the dc.
PENDANT.
When court adjourned Just 10 Of the
AZ from whom q Jury Of IL will be Be-
lected by the concurrence Of prosecu'
ton and defense, had been chosen. A
new Venire Of 40 names was drawn
from the Jury wheel and service was
had on IS OF the number The origi'
nal panel Of $50 was not exhausted.
but as a precaution against the loss OF
time when the list should. run out.
Judge Ralph Latshaw issued the call.
A Jury This Week.
It IL THE estimate Of both sides that
the AZ will DO completed by the ad'
journment OF court and that Thursday
will be given over to the making Of
peremptory challenges. At that rate
the opening statements will be made
on Friday morning and the taking OF
testimony will be begun with little
further loss Of time.
While 1t is known that the state
relics mainly in the making Of its case
on the testimony of expert chemical
analysts, It has been generally sur
missed that the defense was preparing
to rebut this line Of evidence by ex-
perts equally removed.
Mr.. Walsh's attack on medical men
in the examination Of Robert l..
Deshazer, indictes very strongly that
the efforts of counsel for Dr. Hyde will
be directed mainly to descrediting ex-
perts in general with view to over
come the impression which those en-
ployed by the Swope estate may make
on tho jury.
'Do you think" asked the attorney,
that you could draw the line between
scientists and professional witnesses.
and that how much money the witness
received for testifying In the case
would influence your estimate Of his
opinion?"
When the firast IL men were called
TO the jury box there was chorus Of
II am not in favor Of capita punish
ment," from ten throats In answer to
the question asked generally. do
any Of you know OF any reason why
you could not serve as Juror in the
case between the people Of the state
Of Missouri and DIT. B. c. Hyde"
But the state IL not excusing for

that they are unfavorable to the death
penalty and so while practically all Of
