CLEVELAND, Ohio, Aug. 30.
— The Jury system— eulogised by
barristers as the “brightest
«. . 3tar
in the firmament of justice”—
sometimes skids in its orbit or
hits a meteor and puts the whole
legal universe off schedule. Take,
for Instance, the jury in the re
cent Whitfield murder case here,
denounced by Prosecutor E. C.
Stanton and Trial Judge Frank
Phillips for returning-' “the most
weak-kneed verdict in the history
of Cuyahogo County courts.” The
jury, composed of nine men and
three womefk, after listening to
testimony and arguments pf coun
sel for nearly three weeks, de
liberated for eight hours and
then brought in a verdict of
“guilty of murder in , the first-
degree as charged in the indict
ment”— but the verdict was tem
pered with a recommendation,
for mercy. And therein lies the
week-kneed part.
“This verdict,” said Judge Phil
lips as he pronounced sentence,
“leads me to believe that no jury
will bring in a death verdict in
the face of any conceivable set,

He will doubtless go again,
and with better luck, it is hoped.
The Swenning’s left Ashland
June the thirteenth, and spent
the summer traveling and visiting
relatives and friends.
They toured over fifteen states,
going as far east as Chicago and
south to New Mexico.
After a few days’ rest here at
home, they made the Diamond
Lake trip.
Miss MiUlcent Pfeiffer, a niece
who accompanied them on this
summer’s trip, left Monday or
this week to attend Institute at

After its close, she will go to
