GRAND jury REPORT.

cSHSA oOhs ASN"S, Aoy ,OAO, 10
To the Hon. p. A. Turner,
Judge of the 9Th Judicial Dis
trict presiding at this April term
Of Court:
We, the Grand Jury, having
been duly impanelled by your
Honor at the beginning of this
present term of Court, beg to
present to you our final report
to-wit: After carefully exam
lining and inquiring into all Of
evidence presented to us or of
which we had any personal
knowledge, we found and pre-
sented to your Honor 35 true
bills, which consist of IA felonies
and II misdemeanors.
We appointed committee
from the Grand Jury to examine
the county officials reports and
books. The following is the re-
port made by said committee;
We have examined the county
officers reports turned in to
dated, compared them with the
County Treasurers books, and
find them correct to the best Of
our knowledge as far as reported
but as collections only we're re-
ported, we have no knowledge Of
what is due and unpaid, nor
what has been collected and not
reported, il any, and in this con-
nection we recommend that the
Commissioners Court require n
complete report from every Off
Ger, showing number Of cases
tried, disposition of each case
and whether the fines are paid
or unpaid and their amounts and
if unpaid, show security for
same. We could not check the
financial ledger, it not having
been posted to date.
There is no report filed with
the Grand Jury by courtprecincts
4 and 5. No report to the Com
missioners Court from M. G.
Stallcup, J. p, precinct No. 5,
since March 1909.
We recommend that the Com
missioners' Court have the coun-
ty officers audited once each year
prior to the meeting of the Grand
Jury to enable the Grand Jury
to check books, reports etc, of
the county.
We find that the roof over the
main court room is in leaky
condition, and recommend same
be repaired without further de.
lay.
We recommend thai the room
known as the Jury Room be
placed in a more sanitary condi-
ton, by having the same thor
oughly aired and mattresses sun
ned, also said mattresses be COW
cred when not in use.
The committee appointed to
examine the Jail report as fol-
lows: That Jail is in a sanitary
condition and clearly kept. We
recommend that a fire CRATE be
bought for the stove, same being
without one; that two window
lights out be replaced.
This constitutes complete re-
port Of the findings of the Grand
Jury, there being no unfinished
work before us of which we have
any knowledge, we wish to thank
your Honor for the able charge
given US, the District Attorney
for assistance rendered and the
Sheriff. for his assistance.
There being nothing further
before us, we respectfully ask
for our discharge.

gestive organs more than nature in
tended they should perform, frequent
~ results in throwing the entire d.
gestive system into disorder When
the stomach fails to freely digest and
distribute that which Is eaten, the
bowels become clogged with a mass
OF waste and refuse which ferments
and generates poisonous gases that
are gradually forced into the blood,
causing distress and often serious III
ness.
DR.. w. B. Caldwell says that If tho
bowels, are kept regular there will be
much less sickness. and prescribes q
combination of simple laxative herbs
with pepsin that is most effective in
relieving any congestion of matter in
the bowels. This compound can be
bought In any drug store under the
name OF DR.. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin.

then you measure half across the

similar way, taking care to concezI the
stitches under some sort OF pretty Or
nament-say a jeweled buckle TOR 4

naming end in a plated point, you
equip it with the substantial work
which is to fit into a silk loop worked
upon the surface Of the first end.
When this ornament is adjusted, tho

WHEN THE SAND MAN COMES
How One Mother Does Away With
the Fretfuiness That Sometimes
Precedes Bedtime.

About half an hour before nap-time,
junior is washed and given a cup Of
milk. Then l set him in his high
chair and give him something that he
can play with quietly for some time.
II he still seems hungry, give him a
piece Of zweiback or a crust of toast,
that will keep him busy for a long
season. Then, he has a music box
and some cards and disreputable
clothespin doll. that We call his Quiet
time Playthings." and do not let him
Zee at any other time. II he is very
restless and l have the time, we 60
into the sitting-room, darken it. and
play softly and sing the dear old mel
odies, that make my voice tremulous
with memories of my childhood
Sometimes we put a rug in daddy's
big chair. and Junior rocks slowly and
croons sleepy song" with me.
When nap-time comes, I take of his
shoes and prepare him for bed in the
usual way, lay him down in the quiet
room, shut the door, and II he is not
already asleep, he calls happily after
me-
"Byeby."
Do you see the principle OF the
thing? But of course you do. From
the time he wakes in the morning un-
til nap-time, the child grows more and
more tired if left to himself; and when
it finally comes time for his nap, he is
too excited and weary to want it. The
old way of rocking the baby to sleep,
Objectionable as it was in many re-
spects, had this very important virtue,
that it soothed and prepared the tired
little brain and nerves for the coming

Open Air Schools Grow In Favor.
With the opening of the fall school
term. over 200 open air schools and
fresh air classes for tuberculous. and
anaemic children. and also for all chill
dren in certain rooms and grades. will
be in operation In various parts of the

al Association for the Study and Pre-
vention of Tuberculosis. All Of these
schools have been established since
January. 1907, when the first institu-
ton of this character was opened In
Providence. r. I. On January LIST,
1910, there were only - open air
schools in this country and year
later the number had increased only
to 20. Thus. the real growth in this
movement has been within the last
two years. Massachusetts now leads
the states with Sc fresh air schools
and classes for tuberculous. anaemtc
and other school children. Boston
alone having over 80. New York comes
next with 20. and Ohio is third with

THRILLING ADVENTURES OF TWO
"oECoNp-sToRY MEN,"

MONG tho changes that
{ ! !: !. !: !: !:
may be noted in the meth
DDS Of thievery in America
y none is more marked than
~ n passing Of the second
w. story man." He earned
az \ his title from the fact that
zyS his work always was done
a20 above the ground. While
second story robberies still,
and always will, occur, the great
school of the past, Of which big
Frank Mccoy, Pete McCracken and
kid" Kelly were leaders, is thing
of the past.
Whether the public has learned
through so many lessons not to keep
valuable in upstairs rooms, or wheth-
er the change is due to the fact that
we are producing lower and less dar-
ing class of thieves, am not prepared
to say. But In the days when the
above named worthless were the lead
ers Of the "second-story men" scores
of such robberies were reported in the
big cities where there is now one.
The holiness with which second
story men" operate makes it appear
to the unprofessional mind that an
unusual amount of risk is involved.
As 4 matter OF fact, the risk is not 80
great as in any number Of other styles
of robbery. In New York city there
have been fewer convictions for Sec
ond-story robberies than almost anv
other, due in part to the difficulty OF
detection.
big Frank" Mccoy went undetect-
ed until he pulled coping stone loose
while scaling the front porch of a
house in Brooklyn and was crushed
to death. Second story thievery Ian
guished for time after his death,
and then the bright lights came out OF
the west and stirred things up In the
big city until the police were at their
wits end. 1t is the story of one of
them, Pete McCracken, the only real
first class chief that Ohio, the maker
of presidents. ever produced, that l
started out to tell.
