HAVE ARISEN
Because of Woman's Presence On
Jury, And Case May Go to The
Supreme Court.

Seattle, Wash. Jan. 12.-Recause
the law holds that a jury must be
held together in murder ease Mrs.
Retta Doddridge. a lone woman on
the Bianchi murder jury, must sleep
with the eleven men who are her col
leagues. The trial Judge held that
her bed could be held separate from
the others by screen and that she
could have the attendance of a wo-
man bailiff.
The defense raised a point, insist
ing that even the compromise screen
will not be literally in compliance
with the law. insisting that separate
retirement of woman bailiff at any
time, for any purpose, violates the
provisions. If Bianchi is convicted
the ease will go to the Supreme
Court on the question raised by the
woman's presence on the jury.

is covering the ground in Central

ly cold, and forecasters give no hope
of immediate relief. Early Thurs

paths with brooms and shovels be-
fore the people could make IL
from their residences TO the street
and to their places of business. In
many places. the snow was drifted to
depth of many feet. and early ped
estrians were forced to wade almost
knee-deep. Mayor J. A. Hughes had
sledge put to dragging the streets
during the morning. and by noon,
practically all Inconvenience was ov-
ercome. Country people were al
most cut off from the city.
The citizens should make it a point
to follow the example of the, mer-
chants and have the snow cleaned
away from in front of their resi-
dences as soon as possible. in order
to prevent its packing and becoming
hardened. which would necessarily
make the clearing away more diff
ficult task.
