An Interesting Fact.
The First Women Jurors

Maryland, probably to a larger ex-
tent than any of the other original
colonies is replete with interesting
facts.
In an earlier Interesting Facts"
article reference was made to the
woman frequently referred to as the
"frst suffragist." Reading further of
the early days of this colony, we are
more and more convinced that the
early settlers were exceptionally
liberal in their views and broad mind
ed in their administration of justice
and affairs of state.
When we consider that in the six
teenth century, and indeed until much
later, women were considered merely
society adornment and home-keeper,
and man was intrusted to the serious
affairs of the nation, it is refreshing
in this day of political and business
equality, to find that among the first
of the warrants granting land in
Maryland, was one issued in 1888 to
Mistress Mary Troughton, granting
her "as much land as any of the first
adventures had in respect to the
transportation of five persons thither
under the rent mentioned in the first
conditions"
In addition to the activities of the
women of the province in those days
in acting as administrators and ex-
ecutors of estates, it is rather aston
ishing to learn, especially in view Of
the controversy raging within the
past few years concerning women
serving on juries, that this duty was
performed in courts Of justice more
than two hundred and fifty years ago
in Maryland.
In the General Provincial Court
held at Patuxent, September %, 1856,
it was ordered chat a jury of able
women be empanelled and to give
their verdict to the best of their judg-
ment" in certain criminal case then
pending. .s
Again in 1867 the court records of
Kent county show that a similar jury
was empanelled to try one. Hannah

DOING GOOD IN MICA
RAUGA

Some time ago an epidemic oI
smallpox broke out in Nicaragua near
the Costa Rican border. United States
army engineers are in that section of
the Western Hemisphere engaged in
the task of making a survey for the
proposed Nicaraguan Canal. The Sit
uation became serious and the army
medical corps with the engineers i'm
mediately got busy and as a result,
the epidemic at last reports was I'M
der control.
This is only another little story of
what our army and its scientists have
done in Latin America. Although GER
tain liberals" who are opposed to our
policy in Latin-America declare that
we have only imperialists ambitions,
it is fact that every intervention Of
the United States army into the af-
fairs of Latin-American country has
resulted in benefit not only of the per-
sons whom it was designed to pro-
tect but to the country which had
some of its territory occupied.
If Uncle Sam was imperialistically
inclined toward Latin-America he
would have had some of the countries
to the south of US ground under his
heel long before this. But this has
not been the case. He has only inter-
vened when it was necessary to save
lives and property, and wherever the
army and the marines have gone
there have been better sanitary con-
ditions and better living conditions
after the Yankees have left.
How Cuba was cleared up after the
departure of the Spaniards is well
known to everyone, and the record of
the past few years in Hawaii is one of
constructive effort to help the natives
toward higher standard of living.
Have you heard any of the so-called
"intellectuals" arise anywhere to COM
mend the action of the United States
army doctors in stamping out this
latest smallpox epidemic in Nicara-
qua? Have you heard any praise for
this purely benevolent effort from
those who like to call Uncle Sam an
imperialist in his Latin-American eff
forts? Not word has been sounded.
The insincerity of these critics of
Uncle Sam is best evidenced by the
fact that they can becloud the issues
and embarrass the government in
carrying out of its policies. Praise
for any service like the kind recently
rendered in Nicaragua is beyond their
ken. No wonder then, that there eff
forts give rise to the suspicion in the
minds of thinking, Americans that in
their criticism of this government
they are actuated not so much by mo-
tives friendly to the people of Latin
America, but by a desire to do some
thing to help European: propaganda
in the countries to the south of us.
This is only a part of the general
program to make Uncle Sam always
in the wrong.

Bonds Follow Line Of Least Re-
 SiStanCe and Drop

New York, Nov. 26 LP,-On the eve of & holiday traders today were content to let the bond market fol- low the line of least resistance which was toward lower levels. Prices of domestic bonds of ali grades softened although recessions were moderate in most instances. Foreign bonds were mixed.
 For the third successive session the Liberty 1-2 climbed into new high ground for the year and was the strongest issue in the govern ment group. Other -ibe'ty bonds duplicated their recent highs. Treasury issues were little traded.
 Three issues in the million dollar class were marketed. New York Water Service corporation offered S2,000,000 4 1-2 per cent notes, Bergen county, N. j., offered $1,- 575,O00 4 1-2 per cent bonds and city of Perth Amboy, x. J, $1.- 0O0.000 As. Municipal issues that have been sold for early offering include s1,500,0OO city of Spring field, Mass, water bonds.
 Month-end demands for currency incident to Thanksgiving have had a slight firming affect on the money market, authough there has been no advance in rates.
