Looks Like a Hung Jury.

As stated last issue the jury in case of
the Commonwealth against Brack Maui
pin for killing James Faris was secured
by $3.50 Tuesday afternoon. The follow
ing gentlemen compose it:
o. Nj. Brock, l.. NJ. Upton, Pendleton
Tracy, john K. Pates, Jake Shearer,
Sam Phelps, Jas. NJ. DeJarnett, Robt.
Turpin, J. Ii. Oldham, ThoS. Ellison,
X. X. Moberly, Jerry Chambers.
1t is one of the most intelligent look
ing juries seen here on a murder trial
for many day.
The taking of testimony was begun
Wednesday morning and by noon the
prosecution had exhausted its witness
es. In the afternoon Mr.. Maupin was
called to the stand and was gwen grill
ing examination. He made a splendid
witness, at no time showing signs of ex-
citement. All of yesterday was taken
up with the examination of the defense
witnesses and cross examination and at
adjournment the evidence of both sides
was in. Last night speeches were made
by Attorneys William l.. Wallace for
the defense and w. b. Smith for the
prosecution, both gentlemen acquitting
themselves most creditably. AT o'cl'k
this morning Mr.. G. @. Wallace spoke
for the defense, and was followed by
Floyd Byrd for the prosecution. who in
turn was followed by Hon. Tevis Cobb,
for the defense, Commonwealth At
torney Ben A. Crutcher having the final
argument. All of the gentlemen have
reason to be proud OF their splendid eff
forts.
The court house was crowded at each
session and when the speeches we're
made many were unable TO gain entrance,
so great was the desire to hear the dis
tinguished gentlemen who took part in
the trial. The defense was ably assisted
by Mr. John holland.
Our people are well acquainted with
the circumstances concerning the killing
which occurred about noon on October
court day of last year. The town was
crowded at the time and excitement fol
while was widespread. A trial foI
bail followed and he was allowed it in
the sum of $1,000, which he readily
gave.
The case was given to the jury at l:lC
this afternoon, but at $50 when we
went to press, no verdict had been
rendered. 1t is generally believed thai
the jury will fail TO agree on a verdict.

Modem Methods of Living

While we are battling with the Hook

form of germs and germ carriers. many
have forgotten one of the worst of these
A great majority of people have been
content for years to take up and beat
their carpets every fall and spring,
knowing that it is impossible to get out
all the dust and germs, leaving the car
pet much the worse for the beating, but
must be content, knowing that they did
the best they could. A great many de-
vices have been brought out and many

Boomer Girls Defeated.

That the Richmond base ball team is
composed of an ungallant lot no one will
doubt, when it is told that they actually
beat some girls here Tuesday afternoon.
And the worst feature of the case is that
they don't seem bit ashamed of them
selves. Ii came about this way: Some
eight or ten ''girlios" came to town that
afternoon claiming TO be players and the
Richmond team was challenged. The
challenge was accepted and the result is
that the girls, known and advertised as
"Bloomer Girls" got a drubbing at the
ratio of Z 10 l. The Boomers put up a
pretty good game, however. and made
some clever plays. A large crowd wit
messed it and rooted" hard for the
women. but could not pull them into

McCallum will constitute the receiv
| ing staff. Five good men, really first
string men, have been ruled off the
squad for failure to make good grades
in their class work. OF that number
two were pitchers, one catcher, third
baseman and first baseman. These five
were last years men and had been
counted upon by Moran to deliver the
goods.
Barringer at first is playing good
game. Bruton is caring for second
nicely. Gillespie will do at third and
Brailsford is delivering at short.
But if T. c. U. hopes to get away
with any hits they had better keep
them away from the outfeld. With
Wright in left Captain Collins in cen
ter, and Parr in right field there is
not a chance in the world for hit to

weekly review forecasts a strong con.
tinuing demand and prevailing good
prices. 1t further notes the egg supply
is about equal to the demand, but no
decrease in prices is looked for. Coun-
try butter is in good demand and
brings about 15hc per pound.
Strawberries are moving freely
through Produce Row, prices ranging
about $2.50@9.OO to the trade. Re-
ceipts are large, but the demand in
equal, as immediate consumption is
great and the canning season is be-
ginning.
There is an abundance of vegetables
on the market, mostly Harris County
stuff, but choice vegetables from any
section find ready sale in Houston.
Reports in various lines of trade to
the Houston Chamber of Commerce
indicate that business, both wholesale
and retail has been satisfactory. The
wholesale grocers note a tendency to
larger country trade with the opening
of farm operations. Seasonable retail
business was much retarded by rain
and bad weather during March.
