As the holidays prevented the drawing, there can be no Jury trials before Jan uury, and all persons charged with fel ony, as well as all litigants who de mand Jury trials, will have to wait until the new year. In some quarters It has been thought that the Jury drawn and aummond for November, but excused on call of the court, could be brought Into serv ice to try cases as soon as the holi days are at an end. This Is errone ous, as the law fixes the time for the drawing of the Jury for each term so plainly that all hope of having a Jury trial next month has vanished.

General Joslah Pickett, the only veteran of the civil wsr who has been under military arrest ever since the war. was II years old today A year ago he had a fall, from which he never recovered, and for some time his condition has been con Sldered serious. General Pickett's record Is unlqae. Placed un.ler arrest bv order of General Stannard just befnrn the b.ittle of Cold Harbvr. General Pickett has felt It aa honor to remain under arrest. A misun derstanding about orders caused a dif ference of opinion between himself and General Stannard. General (then col onel) Pickett remarked that when e received orders he could understand he would obey them. That remark ceased his arrest. Then came the battle of Cold Harbor. Things looked bad for the Union troops, and. forgetful of hie ar rest. Colonel Pickett Jumped to the fro at of his regiment and led it through the) battle. For his conduct he was recom mended for promotion by the man who had caused his arrest. The arrest was forgotten. ColoneI Pickett was made general, and today there are few outside of General Pickett's prsonal friends who know that the arrest still stands. Durin the lifetime of Senator Hoar. a personal friend of General Pickett, It was suggested that a aoeclal act of con gress be enacted to expunge the record of arrest. General Pickett was always opposed to this. He declared he wanted to die under arrest, htls wish is pretty sure to be granted. 9 TOO LATE TO CLASSIFY NEW FCRNITURE 7 ROOMS.
