FLIRTING BY JUROR IS o. K.
Judge Refuses to- Set Aside VerdicG Reached Under Such Cir
 cumstances.

Olympia, Wash.-The uncontradict- ed allegation that man juror, while confined for consideration of a case, waved frequently to a pretty stenog- rapher in a nearby office is not !suffi- cient to justify the setting aside of the verdict reached under such circum- stances, the supreme court has decid- ed, rejecting an appeal for new trial of the Lindquist damage suit against the Pacific Coast Coal company.
 This case was tried by a mixed jury. Two women jurors, who did not agree to the verdict, signed affidavits charging members of the majority with various irregularities, including signaling" to woman in another of fee. All these charges were contra dicted in counter affidavits except the signaling accusation.

There IS never any lack of vol unteers, though the job IS douDly dan gerous when the bombardment is in full blast. Men and women issue out or their retreats, and 9 story IS cold ot how on one occasion the prefect, the mayor. the bishops vicar, and the v1ce-presldent of the prefectural coun- c1ls together with the bishop himself, were all seen together working the pumps under heavy ire, for, natural ly, the, Germans, who can quite easily see what is going on, as soon as they notice any attempt to put out con- hagration immediately concentrate their guns on the crowd"
 At any rate Arras presents an eX- traordinary instance of coolness and love of the native soil. The inhabi- tants evidently prefer to be buried be- meath the ruins of their birthplace to giving way to the brutal and senseless terrorism of the futile bombardment. 1 have given these details of the life in Arras because it is perhaps the nearest to the German trenches, but as far as the danger goes and the per sistency of the bombardment there is nothing to choose between the condi- tions of life there and in the other towns already mentioned.

FIND FISH IN THE FIELDS
Marais des cygnes Farmers Spear Channel Cats on Flooded
 Sands in Kansas.

Quenemo, Kan. - The wheatfelds and other bottom lands near here which have been flooded by the Ma rais des Cygnes are being turned in- to fishing ponds by the farmers. Big yellow channel catfish weighing five and six pounds are being caught, many of the anglers spearing them with pitchforks.
