to call for a true bill charging assault

Judge Brand suggested that where

He stated, however, that there is a
big difference in the trial of a case
for assault and battery and a case of
assault with Intent to murder.
In the last named, a felony, there
must be 49 jurore drawn, the attorneys
ore allowed two hours for argument
on each side; the court stenographer
must report the evidence at fifteen
dollars a day and in case of convic
tion must copy the testimony after
the trial at the same rate.
In the misdemeanor case, on the
other hand, only twenty-four jurors
are needed from which to strike a
panel; the argument is limited to
thirty minutes of the court’s time, the
stenographer is not required to take
down the testimony, and the case af

New York, April 15.—One year ago
today, in the cold, gray dawn of the
morning of April 15, the While Star
liner Tiianic, the largest vessel in the
world, foundered in mid-ocean after
striking an iceberg. More than fif
teen hundred lives -were lost in the
disaster, which was the greatest of
! ts kind in the world's history.
The Titanir was bound for New
Yn-k when she met her fate and a
large number of New Yorkers were
among the victims of the disaster
The memory of these victims was
honored today in impressive memorial
services held in various churches in
this city. One ot the most interesting
of these services was held in the low
er East Side in memory of Mr. and
Mrs. Isidor Stratts, whose deeds of
charity and philanthropy, as well as
Ihe heroism of their deaths, will ever
live in the memories of residents of
that section of the city.
The Titanic sailed from Southamp
ton, on April 10, on her maiden trip
to New York in command ot Captain
E. J. Smith, with a crew of 860 men
and 1,824 passengers. She had been
hailed far and wide as "the unsinka-
hie ship’’ with watertight compart
ments which would stand her in good
stead in any emergency.
On the night of Sunday. April 14,
in latitude 41:16 north and longitude
50:14 west the great liner, steaming
along under a star decked sky, struck
the submerged spur ot an iceberg
which ripped a seam in her side be
low the water line.
There were no fears among the pas
sengers at first that the Titanic wo .Id
not survive her injuries, hut as the
water streamed into the hold, filling
the compartments. Capt. Smith and
his crew realized the worst and mann
ed the life-boats. Men lifted their
wives into small boats and sent them
adrift on a sea of ire, remaining on
deck awaiting the sinking of the ship.
All told 704 persons got of fin the
boats, which it was later determined
had a sufficient capacity to have ae
coin mod at ed 1.176. These were res
rued by the steamship Carpathia. The
Titanic went down early on the morn
ing of April 15.
Tales told by the rescued of the he
roism of many who went to their
death are still fresh in the minds of
men. But none was more splendid
than the act of the ship's musicians
as the "unsinkable ship" was sinking
in giving solace lo the dying by play
ing "Nearer. My God. to Thee."
As the result of a senatorial inves
ligation into the accident blame was
placed on Capt. Smith for failing to
heed warnings that icebergs lay
ahead, and the British Board of Trade
was censured for lax regulations and
improper inspection.
Among the more prominent men
who were lost with the big ship were
Col. John Jacob Astor, Isidor Straus,
Major Archibald Butt, personal aid to
President Taft: F. I). Millet, artist;
lasques Futrelle, novelist; G. B. Wide-
net-. of I’hiladelphin; Henry li. Har
ris. theatrical manager, and William
T. Stead, the famous Journalist.

RECORD OF ONE
GEORGIA COW
M. P. JARNAGIN, Professor Animat
Husbandry, Georgia State College
of Agriculture.
Inquiry—What can I afford to pay
for a high class dairy cow?
The value of a dairy cow depends
on what she can produce. The ac
companying photograph represents a
oow owned by the College aud kept
on the farm. During her last lacta
tion period of ten months and twenty-
one days, she produced 7,215.1 pounds
of milk, which averaged 5.57 per cent,
butter fat. At 40 cents per gallon
her milk sold for $335.58. Her bull
calf was sold for $50. A conservative
estimate would place the valut of the
manure at $30. Total gross income
from these sources is $415.58.
Her feed, including pasturage, cost
$58.74. The labor has not exceeded
$50. Thus the total expense was
$108.74, leaving a net profit of
$306.84.

IMPORTANT SUIT COMES UP.
Chicago, ill.. April 15.—The injunc
tion suit of the government against
the sanitary district of Chicago, in
volving the pumping of wat- r from
l ake Michigan, was called for trial
in the federal court here today. The
petition ot the federal authorities has
been pending for several years ami
lias been waiting the decision of Un-
War Department recently rendered
which denied the application of the
sanitary board to pump an addition
10.000 cubic feet of water per second
from the lake. Canada as well as a
number of the states are directly in
terested in the outcome of the suit,
owing to the allegation that any addi
tional pumping would result in a low
ering of the levels of the great lakes
ami thereby interfere with shipping.
