MRDWARE MINING SUPPLIES Dora. Jenninga' Trial Results In a Disagreement of the Jury Second Trial in April. The trial of Dora Jennings oame to an end for this term of court when the jury Thursday morning, after having deliberated for 24 hourse, filed into the circuit coort room and an nounced to Jndge Hanna that they were unable to agree to a verdict. The first ballot is said to have stood six for acquittal and six for convic tion, and the last ballot seven for acquittal and five for conviction. When the report was read it made no preceptible effect on Dora, she re maining as self composed as she had been throughout the trial. The jury were all men of good intelli gence and their decision fully reflects popnlar sentiment, which is about evenly divided as to whether the un fortunate girl is guilty or not. The jurymen were W. L. Babcock, J. J. Moll, F. H. Schmidt, T. A. Glyun, J P. Keuney, C. J. howard, H. S. Woodcock, E. M. Albright, Wm. Bunch, G. L. Bensen, O. W. Craig aud J. A. Severth. Judge Hanna then remanded Dora to the custody of the sheriff and fixed her seond trial for the April term of circuit court. Sheriff jLewis had kept Dora JeuniugB at his home since he brought her from Jacksonville, but Thursday she became the first occu pant of the new brick jail. Her brother Jasper is confined in the old wooden jail where he is guarded by a jailer. Dora is not confined to a cell but has the freedom of the large room in which the caRos are located. A comfortable bed was provided for her by order of County Judge Booth and Mrf. kewis wne or ine menu pro vided the girl with many of the little comforts that will go to make her three months imprisonment loss irk some. For the first time since she was put in jail last September Dora Jennings gave way to her feelings aud shed tears, but made no complaiut. She expressed deep ie gret for her brother Jasper, and hoped he would yet be set free as he was not guilty. They have not met since the day of their arrest, except for the few minutes when he was brought into the coort room as a witness dur ing her trial, then they were not al lowed to speak to each other. She had with her the black kitten that she had brought from Jacksonville aud which had been given to tier bv the little daughter ol ueputy onenn Crawford, of Jackson county, biie is quite a reader, and of the better class of boots and papers, and while in the Jacksonville jail spent niucn oi ner time in reading.
