ten over 800 names on this occasion.
 This accounted for the cards in different hand writing that were in the jury box and contradicted the former statement of one of the com missioners that one man had written all cards placed in the box by the jury commission and that the cards placed there in different hand writ ing were placed there by parties tam pering with the box.
 At the time the commissioner made the statement clearing up the whole affair, the excitement had reached q point that was causing much alarm. especially as some were inclined to place the blame on innocent parties and men of the highest character and known to be men of honesty and fair dealings with all and in all cases.
 All witnesses in the Hall Render son case have been summoned and it is expected that the trial will pro- ceed Thursday morning without de- lay.
 It was because of this case that so much excitement was caused about the jury box, no other murder cases having been mentioned in connection.
 Todays session of circuit court was taken up by misdemeanor cases which will be continued until We'd nesday and then the following three weeks will be given over to criminal court

 The girl thawed at once. For some reason or other, Della attracted her. She knew nothing of this woman, be- yond the fact that she was handsome. dressed well, had easy manners and the men seemed to like her. The jealousy that Natalie had felt yester- day had totally disappeared
