WOMEN SERVE AS JURORS.
Ladies and Gentlemen of the Jury"
Now Proper in Washington.

Now Proper IN washington.
Tacoma, Wash. Women did
jury service in county courts for
the first time since Washington be-
came a state. Embarrassed attorneys
apologized as they asked women peril
nent questions as to their age, their
belief in the criminal laws of the state
and their freedom from prejudice In
courts where women were jurors there
was less wrangling between attorneys
than at most trials.

class, made an interesting address,
whereby he made known his plans to

NATIONAL BAPTIST CONVENTION
ROUTE SELECTED.

A report of the committee of three
consisting of Rev. G. H. Clark, pastor
of Mt Olive Baptist Church, Rev. e.
Nj. Lawrence, superintendent of Mis-
sions for the Tennessee Baptist State
Convention, and Rev. G. B. Taylor,
pastor of the Second Baptist Church,
who have been at work on the most
available and convenient route from
Nashville to Pittsburg, Pa, where
the National Baptist Convention will
hold its next annual session, report
that they have selected the l.. & N.
and Pennsylvania roads They have
decided to leave Nashville Monday
evening, September II, at 1885. A
splendid high back day coach and
standard sleeper have already been
ordered for this trip to be placed at
the disposal of the Nashville dele
gates and those who go with
the party from this city. In ad-
dition to this, they contemplate
making up a Baptist Special to run
through to Pittsburg without change.
These plans look bright, because al
ready information comes from New
Orleans that the Southern Louisiana
delegates with two coaches, the Mo-
bile and Birmingham delegates with
two coaches, and the Chattanooga
delegates are to join the Nashville
delegation making up in all about
seven coaches. The Memphis people
are planning to join this special

Nashville, Monday night, they will
reach Cincinnati Tuesday morning,
September 18th, where they will be
joined by the Indiana and Southern
Ohio delegates 1t is stated that Il
dining car for the convenience of all
would be attached to the special train
at Cincinnati. They are due to reach
Pittsburg, Tuesday afternoon, Sep
TENDER 18th, at 500. Already the
! Nashville sleeper has eighteen occu-
| pants signed up. The entire report
seems to meet the approval Of the
Nashville City Ministers Confer
ence. The committee desires 10
state that the convenience Of this
train will be at the disposal of all
who desire to take advantage of the
trip to go East at this time. Three
people, who are not delegates 10 tht
convention, have already selected
these dates for leaving Nashville
taking reservation in the sleeper

Clark, will be handed out at the city
ticket office of the l.. & N. R. r. Co.
