ONLY ELEVEN ON THIS JURY
judges Refusal to Exempt Deaf Lip
Reader Left the Tribunal One
Man Shy.

In one of our city courts the judge
was examining a number of men who
were trying to be relieved from jury
duty. There were all sorts of men and
all kinds of excuses, and his honor
was getting restless. One OF the men
drawn on the panel was genuinely
deaf. but like a number of people af-
fected in the same way, he could
watch the speakers lips and know
what he was saying, eve though he
could not catch a word by sound. The
judge sat for a few minutes with
out uttering a word, n then in a
very low tone said: $50 you wish to
be excused from jury duty because
you cannot hear?" The man was
looking directly at his lips, and conse-
quently understood the question of the
judge.
Yes, sir, that is the reason" was
the prompt reply.
We'll, If you can hear me when I
talk in that tone of voice / guess you
are a fit juryman. You are not ex-
cused," was the decision Of the Judge.
There vas no help for it, and the
deaf man took his seat in the box,
with the result that he heard little or
none of the testimony, and that .parti-
cular jury was practically composed
of only eleven men.

Histories.

Among the good services rendered
by the late General Rodenbough was
writing a history of his old regiment,
the Second dragons, now the Second
cavalry. If many officers followed his
example we should soon have a libra.
ry of great value to military histori-
ans. Several regiments have their his.
torians, but as a whole the immense
mass of interesting matter to be found
in the archives OF the different orgapi-
cations yet remains to be compiled.
General Rodenbough was more than a
compiler. He had the historical vision
for the facts of environment, which
enabled him to seize as an apt illus
tration of the spirit of the times John

was what her profession made her, a

on.
Il knew that sooner or later the ad-
dress would be spoken, for the expla-
nation of everything had come to me
now. This secondhand shop was
that only in name. In reality it was a
fence for thieves, a meeting place and
rendezvous for robbers-and I had
stumbled into the knowledge of their
plans! Oh, If some one would ask
for that address! If some one would

l came to myself, I was turning the

thought of the police had not touched
my mind; all l knew was that / must
get to the house they planned to rob
before they got there, that l must
find some way to circumvent them.
The street car stopped. l boarded it.

block in which the fiat was that l be-

carrying my baby into a place where

where it might cause danger for me.

then, with a gasp, rushed back.
II had seen a shadowy form-two
Of them-three. The thieves had ar
rived. Like the little fool that | had
been, I had allowed myself to be
caught, l had spoiled everything. I
gave n wild glance about me in the
dim light, then Jumped for the rea
porch again. A dumbwaiter had
shown before me. A leap and l had
climbed into it, closed the slide, and
was praying, yes, praying. that the
quiet as she had been-a whimper
would have meant death for me.
Maybe there's something in pray

"The baby turned in my arms the
least bit, 1t raised a tiny hand that
touched my %throbbing throat, then it

daughters and their husbands live on

The music of the cafe had faded for
me, too, now. Only the woman's face

echoing the tense agony of that mo-
