In oiden times when a jury in Eng
land remained impervious to the judges
gentle mode OF persuasion fine and i'm
prisonment were resorted to. The jury
that acquitted Sir Nicholas Throck
morton was condemned to eight
months imprisonment in addition to
the payment of large sum of money.
In the reign OF Queen Elizabeth jury,
having reduced a prisoners alleged

At High School

The crisis in the athletic situation
at the local high school was averted
yesterday afternoon by the action of
Chester Thompson, the choice of the
team and the athletic association for
football manager Yesterday after
noon Mr.. Thompson interviewed Prin-
cipal A. J. Burton and the "R. l." men
and stated that as he understood that
high school football was being leopard
lied by the consideration of his name
for manager, he wished to withdraw
from the contest. The football men &C
cepted his withdrawal upon condition
that he would nominate a successor.
Mr. Thompson recommended several
and the team met last night and nom
mated Harry Silverman, one of those
recommended The athletic associa-
ton will meet tonight and the nomin-
alton of Mr.. Silverman will probably
be made an unanimous election. At the
same meeting the designations of JON
ty Marshall and Harold Grove, presi-
dent and treasurer of the association,
respectively, will be taken up. 1t
would be difficult for new officers to
take charge of the affairs of the asso-
citation at this time and an attempt
will be made to have the men recon
slider their action.
John w. Casio, candidate for the po-
sition of instructor in English and his.
tory at the high school, arrived yea
terday to look over the work. NJ
Casio was elected to the position up
on Recommendation of Principal A J.
Burton The new teacher returned
from Europe last November after hav-
ing done some graduate work at Hell
delburg, Germany. Mr.. Casio is also
a skilled musician and hopes to organ
ize a student band.
The copy for the second quarterly
issue OF the Watch IU;~er" went to

that the issue will be out by next Fri

is four weeks late, but that it Is al
most impossible to get the material
as interest in the publication
seems to be waning. There are but

likely that the school paper will die

THE COINS OF KOREA.

Among vessels recently arriving at Boston was one with a cargo which affords a somewhat pathetic remind CT of the tragic death of the Korean empire, says the New York Mail. The cargo consists of 1902 bags contain ing several tons Of old bronze and copper coins issued by Korea, while she was still a sovereign nation, and the lot has been sent to America to be sold as junk. The Japanese, hay ing annexed Korea and reduced it to a status of q province. announce that they will provide it with a coinage ct their own making consequently the old fractional coins Of Korea. being without a nation tO father them. have no value except for the base metal they contain. It is said that Japan has 2O.00O tons Of old Korean sTIail coins for sale. The abolition of tlaJ mass of cheap money tokens ill mark the disappearance of one of the last remaining symbols of Korean sovereignty

Santa Fe May Have to Run Extra
 Coaches for Eastern Excursion.

The eastern excursion Of the Santa Fe on July 2 has been attracting the attention of people who plan to go east this summer and as result the general agent. and the employees at the city office, have been kept busy lately replying to inquiries con- corning the date of the excursion. cost Of tickets. and all the thousand and one questions that travellers ask when making preparation for long trip across the continent
 A number of reservations have al- ready been taken. six bcrths being spoken for during single day last week and it is very probable that the company will have to provide an additional sleeper in addition to the one already scheduled to leave on the excursions which have all ready been conducted the coaches left Phoenix with every berth taken. and although the sale of tickets then was eminently satisfactory to the officials Of the road, they will consider their sales even more successful if they find it necessary to put on one or two more coaches At this season of the year many people plan to go east. and the traffic is heavy at all times. On the excursion dates. how ever, it is unusually heavy. as people appreciate the advantage of the spe- cial equipment and luxurious train service. and the many special com forts provided hy the railroad man. agement to make the summer trip. very often taken after ten or twelve months of hard work. as delightful as possible.

\ negro. named 'Rastus Brown. perhaps was walking peacefully along in the neighborhood Of the Coliseum yesterday afternoon, perhaps think ing Of Cynthia Persimmon. the belle of Darktown, when his person was assailed by d chunk of watermelon.
 Two Mexican boys. street gamins of true Parisian type, were eating a melon in the alley. and as they saw 'Rastus stepping by. meditatively, they were unable to resist the temp tation to throw some at him
 In doing this they failed to take into account the resentment Of 'Ras tus. who immediately gave chase, and chase of no mean order. at that. for he ran after them as though he meant business. and the extent and quality of his fury may he judged from the fact that he ran right by the remains of a half eaten melon without stopping to finish the feast left by the Mexican boys as they sought safety in flight.

AUSTRALIAN PREMIER
 ASTON|SHES LONDON HE IS LITTLE SHORT OF AN
 ARCHIST. Honorary University Degrees Are
 Nothing to Him.

London. June 25.-Andrew Fisher. who left Scotland. where he worked as a pit boss. to seek employment in the mines of Australia and is now back as premier of the commonwealth. has been shOckingly outspOken in his support of ideas which are considered here almost anarchistic. Fisher is no respecter of persons. In a speech which attacked James keir Hardie for that gentleman's opposition to armaments, he showed that the ideas Of Australian and English labor lead CTS differ radically. Now he has been speaking to London financiers who have interests in Australia Tn even plainer terms. 4 deputatiOn from companies owning large tracts of land in Australia waited on him to protest against the new Australian land tax. which aims at breaking up large estates. The spokesman of the deputation said the tax would keep capital out of Australia
 You don't Know what you are talk ing about" Fisher said. and then proceeded to show. in his mind. that the large land owners retarded the progress Of the country by tying up land by holding it for speculation.
 Fisher thus far has declined all titles and degrees offered him. He did not appear at Oxford, which vas to confer a degree common to other premiers, and he declined the degree offered by Cambridge.

boys were overcome with cOnsum- ing terror. and they took prompt measures to place themselves be- yond reach of the negro's anger
 Without stopping 10 analyze the pine nomenon of his rage, which was probably caused by the fact that they had thrown the melon at him in stead of carrying it up in an appe- tizing chunk, they ran up the alley, around into Monroe. and straight through Kearley's stables. with 'Ras- tus making a close second behind them.
 They had a clear track through the stable, and were doing their hun dred yards in ten seconds flat, when they reached the rear wall of the stable. Their inquiring eyes sought in vain for an exit 'Rastus was coming. Without hesitating an in stant. regardless of scratches or in jury. they made a dive through window. carried the screen with them, and disappeared up the al ley.
 Nothing came of the chase but broken screen. 'Rastus went home without having the satisfaction of chastizing the youngsters. who had outraged his dignity Nothing has since been heard of the gamins, but they left two bicycles in the alley hard by the remnants of the juicy melons. which may have been nm ished by 'Rastus. Although Cmet Moore said nothing of the kind. Il is possible that the negro was mere lv chasing the boys away in order to clear the field for the satisfying of his own appetite.
 The wheels are at present in the city hall. II will be to the interest of the boys to claim their property as it is not likely that any serious charge win be preferred against them.

 Wesley Goswick, father of the vic tims. was disauned while trying to ov- ertake the wagon conveying Olds, with the avowed intention of killing him. Despite threats of lynching Olds was safely lodged in the county jail The bodies of the little victims were brought here in an automobile.

ald came around the alley corner and the baby carriage was run over. There was a child under the shade and it was dropping to the ground to be crushed under the wheels, when frantic mother. with a pierc- ing scream. seized her little one and fled with her to the safety of the sidewalk
 The driver of the wagon had not run over the carriage Intentionally. but his ignorance or careIessness were no recommendations to the mercy of the furious husband and father, who arrived on the scene d moment later. The baby carriage was broken to bits, and the spec tacle of his wife on the sidewalk with the child in her arms was too much for the infuriated Mexican.
 Rushing up to the wagon where Fitzgerald was busily preparing to start out again on his rounds of sprinkling. he threatened the life of the driver. and made dire threats of vengeance Fitzgerald attempted to explain to him that he had not seen the buggy until it was run over. and also declared that there was no child in the buggy at the moment his wagon struck il. The Mexican de clared /both statements untrue. and became SD furious that the neighbors in the vicinity. afraid that he might carry some of his threats into exc cution. telephoned the police. Jailer Perrin was sent to the scene of the trouble by the city marshal, and the difficulty was soon quieted down. The Mexican went away, however. vowing vengeance against the driver for his carelessness, and the mother carried her child as though fearful that it might again be thrown into danger
