CIRCUIT COURT NEWS.
Grand Jury Busy and to Work Next
 Week. Five Murder Cases.

Circuit court began at Claren- don on Monday morning with Judge Eugene Lankford, pre- siding; Sheriff T. D. Bounds, Clerk Jno. s. Black, and the usual full quota of lawyers in attendance.
 The Court in his charge to the Grand Jury made some very startling charges relative to the existing conditions in Monroe county. He said in part:
 T have held court in some counties of the state where it is fifteen and twenty years between murder cases, yet 1 understand that you have about four murder cases here this term of court. Now if you people think iU is right to permit people to kill and murder here and turn them loose it is your business, but l will say this, that as long as they are turned loose by the juries you are going to have murder cases. In some of the older states where the people are punished for murder they don't have it as frequently as we do here; and taking this whole state includ- ing the counties where they don't have murders for fifteen or twenty years, we still have five times as many murders as they have in the older states. And taking this county alone you have twenty-five times as many murders as they have in the older sta tes.
 Judge Lankford then touched upon matter of much import ance to this county, making an investigation into the reports made by the county officers and an entertainment as to whether the money which has been paid in by the people as taxes has been properly accounted and ex- pended. He referred to the fact that the law does not compel a man against his will to serve as commissioner of accounts and stated that he had appointed the best men of the county to this position, but that all had given excuses and refused to serve. He said: "Now, with scrip in your county worth something like thirty cents on the dollar 1t behooves you as a grand jury of the county to investigate this matter yourselves. If your con- mission wont make a report 1t is proper for you to do so your- selves. See that there is a re- port made. It is a matter that should be attended to and the statute says that is your duty to do it. and to see that all the re- ports of the officers and the books of the county are properly kept, and that the funds of the county

The
Faust at the Grand.

The production OF Faust at the
Grand the last three days OF this
week is a stupendous undertaking on
the part of the Grand Stock Co., but
it vas Well done. 1t is a spectacular
scenic production and the different
drops under the hand Of Ed Borman
are all works of art. The laboratory,
the grand plaza, Martha's cottage, the
plaza at night, the great Brockin
scene, the prison n apotheosis were
all grandly done and the work reflects
great credit on his handiwork. There
are but four leading parts in the play,
that Of Mephis@. which was assayed
by G. C. Miller and it was in capable
hands. He made a subtitle, plausible,
pleasant, fascinating devil and read
his lines distinctly and we'll. Miss
Virginia Zolman as Marguerite took
the difficult role exceedingly well. The
Faustus of Jack Carleton was also a
clever bit of acting, while the only
comedy part in the production was
that of Miss Madge Carson, as Martha,
the susceptible old dame who acted
as a sort of a chaperone for Mar
guerite. The others in the cast were
equal to their parts, with Miss Evelyn
Dare rendering the singing parts nice
ly. MI. Halliday had spent a great
deal Of time in the rehearsals and the
| play went on last night without a
hitch. 1t will be continued the balance
of the week with a big matinee Satur-
day.
