BLACK DOTS AND JURORS.

Prof. Hugo Munsterburg is an emf
nent psychologist, so eminent that it
would be impertinent for the mere
layman to question the results of his
psychological experiments or their
scientific accuracy Yet, having in his
mastery way determined specific
fact in psychology, it is possible the
humble layman may be as competent
to apply it logically to everyday con-
ditions. Having submitted number
OF men and women to the black dot
test, he discovered that women vera
more fixed in their opinions and less
likely to change them through argu-
ment ttan men. They are mentally
stubborn, he says, and are therefore
le'. TT than men for jury duty. They
counted the black dots and stuck TO
their count, while the men were cas-
lily convinced they were wrong. 1t is
his idea that jury duty is best per-
f. rmed by those who can be per-
suaded to give up their opinions when
a good argifier' gets after them.
We have mad some experience with
that kind of jurors. 1t is not I'M
common that a strong majority Oh
one side of verdict is converted into
majority on the other side by some
strong minded and forceful juror 1t
often happens that a man wants to
get home and sleep in good bed, or
wants one of his wifes justly famous
apple pies, and gies up his opinion
in order to get it.
Women, we are told by this emil
nent psychologist, after entering the |
jury room, would be far less subject :.
to persuasion of various kinds than
men. and would stick resolutely to
the opinion they formed from hear
ing the evidence while in the jury
box. We may even judge that he
thinks women, after coming to a con-
clusion from the evidence, be the
process of reaching it what it may,
would turn a deaf ear to the most
eloquent advocate highly paid for his
ability to make jury forget the evil
less of sophistry. In thus testfying
)sychologically and by the black dot
quite to the tenacity of opinion of
he has relieved them from
he oft-repeated charge that in the
ury box they would vote as the best
ooking lawyer asked them to.
That women make up their minds
nd stick to them through thick and
hin, retaining them firmly even while
living a piece of them to others, is
othing new. Black dots on card
GARD were not necessary to deter
line so we'll known fact. Any
ian of ordinary domestic experience
ould have settled that point for the
rofessor and he could have devoted
Is time to calculating more abstruse
sociological facts However, the
,ientific psychologist cares little for
lie well-established facts of expert
ice unless confirmed by scientific
speriment, hence the black dots and
leir confirmation of what everybody
new before. But accept the black :
1t evidence as we must, because we
new 1t anyhow, we are not COM
,lled to accept the dictum of the
,perimenter, that wavering and cas-

NEW YORK, Sept. 8.-The numbe
of theatrical productions was swellet
in New York this week by exactly
eleven for eleven playhouses reopenet
their doors. On last Monday evening
John Drew, whose connection with the
Empire theatre has long since become
a matter of history appeared at that
playhouse in Much Ado about Moth
ing" 1t is almost needless to say that
Mr.. Drew's performance is a highly
creditable one, yet it should be said,
because Shakespearean roles are new
for John Drew, whose greatest sue
cesses have been achieved in comedy
work.
The Comedy reopens its doors with
new play and new idea, a holiday
matinee being chosen for the first per-
Torrance. Her Own Money! is the
Comedy's attraction. 1t is a comedy
of home life, by Mark E. Swan, and is
presented by Winthrop Ames. 1t tells
the story of martial difficulties of
husband who believes his wife is ig-
norant of business. Through a friend
the wife lends her husband $4,000 at
a time when he is confronted by disas-
ter. The return of the money arouses
the husbands suspicion and after a
scene with his wife they separate. The
wife, thrown on her own resources,
makes good" and year later recon
is effected.

WICHITA WILL PRAY.
Preachers Adopt This Method to Gel
Rainfall Churches Agree.

Wichita. Kan, Aug. 9.-Wichita
churches will offer up a prayer tomor-
row for rain. At a meeting of pastors
here today the move was inaugurated.
The call asks that as many churches
as possible join and requests that
Christians singly keep up the prayers
for rain until rain comes.
The foundation for the prayer for
rain idea is taken from First Kings,
chapter VIII. verses 35 and SO. The
verses follow:
35.-When the heaven is shut up and
there is no rain, because they have
sinned against Thee; if they pray to-
ward this place and confess Thy name
and turn from their sin, when Thou
affiictest them:
36.-Then hear Thou in heaven, and
forgive the sin of Thy servants, and
of Ty people Israel, that Thou teach
them the good way wherein they
should walk, and give rain upon Thy
land which Thou hast given to Thy
people for an inheritance

DWARFS IN ITALIAN CITY.
Physician Believes Their Condition

From an allusion to the town in one
of Shakespeare's plays he is led to be-
leve that this popularity is of long
standing. The technical way of put

ONLY about two hours in the upper
town of Bergamo and yet he counted
at least 20 of them there, though he
noted not more than one in the lower

calls upon the medical men of Italy,
