an evll-minded comrade, who saw this,
told the lord that Wanda was stealing

The next afternoon he saw a wasp

II have gained fifteen pounds in

he said:
"While, as I said before, am hale

of hard work, I could not do it before

work more than half the time, and
when I did anything at all I was so
weak and tired out I would just have
to dr:g myself around. For the past
two years have been gradually

gone from 1855 to 1874 pounds, and felt

er broad insinuations made of late
with reference to the manner in which
the juries of this county have been, or
were about to be drawn, and since the
entire matter comes under the personal
direction and supervision of the clerk
Of the district court, it might not be
amiss to remind the voters of the
county that THE present juries, as well
as all drawn during my term Of office,
have been drawn in strict accordance
with the letter and the spirit of the
laws of the state with reference to
such procedure. The lists of names
from which juries are drawn are fur
nished by the board of county commits
sioners at their annual meeting in jan
uary, and filed in the clerks office. At
least fifteen days before the opening
of court the clerk must call in a justice
of the peace and the sheriff, and in the
presence of these men he must place
slips containing the names on these
lists in the jury box, shake it thor
oughly and draw forth the slips, one
at time, until the proper number
have been drawn. Seventy-two names
are furnished on the list for the grand
jury and % are drawn. One hundred
and forty-four names are furnished
for the petit jury and twenty-four are
drawn. The reasons for any discrep-
ancy between the voting strength of a
precinct and it's proportionate repre-
sentation upon any jury are two in
number.
l. There may not be a proportion
ate representation of that precinct
upon the list of names furnished by
the commissioners For instance, the
lists in this county are apportioned to
the various commissioners districts
according to some rating that was evil
IDENTIFY made out a good many years
ago. For example, take the list of IA
names for petit jurors. The fourth
and fifth commissioner districts, each
of which have more than five hundred
votes, are represented by only 26 and
10 names respectively, while the first
commissioners district, with a little
over six hundred votes, is represented
by "A names, or more than both the
fourth and fifth districts combined.
The third district, with over eight hun
dred votes, has as names and the sec
ond district, with less than $50 votes,
has II names. Evidently, the district
with the most names in the box has
the biggest chance.
2. The element of chance in the
drawing the same element by which
a card player gets a large number Of
cards Of one suit and few or none of
another.
It appears to be a popular form of
Indoor sports" Of late to criticise
public officials. Officers are human.
They make mistakes and forget things
occasionally just like other folks, but
before accusing them of deliberate
"crookedness," or even insinuating
such matter, it would seem wise to
get the facts and read the law on the
subject. Very often the law is not
what we think it is, or wish it to be,
and occasionally the facts are not quite
the way they are reported to us. Rest
assured that the juries Of Mile Laos
county are not packed and that the
drawing of them is not in the control
OF any 'sgang" old or new.
Faithfully submitted, &

spring term Of court, which will open
on March % with probably Judge c.
A. Nye presiding. The grand jury, if

this time that the grand jury will not

Stage on War Footing

There are lot of institutions and people in this country who seem per fectly willing and even little anxious to forget about the war. But the American theatre is not one of them,'' writes Alexander Woollcott, in the Home Sector, the ex-soldiers' weekly conducted by the former editorial council of The Stars and Stripes.
 Half the plays which have been be- slowed upon the patient public in New York, Chicago and San Francisco this season have dealt with soldiers and sailors-service men in the making, or more often, in the unmaking.
 After all 1t would be so. The thea tre is sort of newspaper done into charades, and the banks and humors of demobilization would naturally be re- flected in that mirror which, with rather shaky hand, the theatre holds mp to nature.
 Soldiers marching off to war, sol diers marching home from war, red chevron men looking TOT jobs, detach- ments waiting in the Brittany mud for boat to carry them away from sunny France, ex-colonels and ex-privates starting at scratch in the race after the same girl. brave aviators being dec orated to slow music, hard boiled Cor at least medium -done) NJ.
