pens of Marion B Bigg,' one of tbe
defendants in the land fraad trials.
Boon after he was placed on . trial the
first time, a month ego, be was
debating one evening with a friend as
to tbe probable result. Tbe friend
suggested that Biggs should consult a
certain palmist, who would be able to
foretell with certainty tbe decision of
th Jury.
Though aoinewhat skeptical Biggs
consented aud .visited the palmist.
Uuiortnoalely, not e?en a palmist can
penetrate the secrets of a jury room
ana tne information given was . very
