British Navy Eatimates.

Despite the fact that the British
navy estimates for the current year
show a proposed expenditure of $751;.
5oO,o00-an increase of nearly ten
million dollars over last year-the
greater navy advocates are not salts
fed. The London Daily Mail says:
The program Of new construction
consisting Of only four battleships
four light cruisers and u de
stroyers, with IN. undisclosed number
of submarines, IL disappointingly
meager. Judged by the admiralty s
own standards. 1t Is quite insufficient
No provision, other than q slight &C.
celeration Of the battleship program, il

AVOID JURY SERVICE.
PUBLIC DUTY THAT Is DISLlkEp
~ BRITISH ciTIZENS.
Humorous Excuses Sometimes A.
~anesd BY Those Who Are Sum-
moned-Woman's Plea for Ex-
psnsss Allowed BY Judge.

Few British citizens. indeed, have
ever any burning desire to spend three
or four days successively in the Jury
box at the high courts or at the local
assizes or sessions, 4 writer in London
Answers says.
The average jury receives such
treatment and is 80 much annoyed by
delays. criticisms. intricactes, ETC.,
that nobody wants to serve on it.
Add to these ills the serious loss Of
time to most tradesmen. loss of actual
money owing to business postpone
ments, loss Of out-of- pocket expenses
in meals, fares. ETC.. and no one can
wonder that the British citizen will
make any excuse in the world to be
quit of serving as Juror. If he thinks
1t can be managed.
In my capacity as a clerk In one OF
the chief London courts l come across
strange excuses of this kind.
Not long ago one of the men sum.

because his wife had presented him
with twins that morning. and this un.

heartily and the man appeared sur.
