Macon, Ga., June S,—An unusually heavy criminal docket confronted the illy court when the trlbunnl convened for the June term this morning, with Judge Robert Hodges on the bench. The criminal docket hns been given prece dence over the civil bualnera for the term, and every effort will Ire made to conclude the criminal docket as early as possible. The criminal docket Is com posad of one hundred and twelve cases, comprising n variety of offenses, moat of which are larceny, "toting pistole" and gaming. A email army of witnesses have been subpoenaed and tho hnlel of the court house promise to present quite an an imated scene during the week. The civil docket la also quite large id Is made up mostly of sul damages aeveral of which are con ed very Important and their outcome la being watched with keen Interest by the Interested parties and their friends. There are various and sundry ex cuses offered by Jurors as to why they should be excused from Jury service, but In the trial of Fred Bush last week Judge Roan of the criminal court ran across one, which, while It waa ad mittedly legal, revealed what he termed a weakness In the law and elicited from Ms honor a few comments on the sub ject. The Juror In queatlon offered aa an excuse the fact that he la a member of the state troops. With thla remark Judge Roan excused him: “The law exempting members of the state trbops from military duty Is alto gether wrong. There la no reason whatever why a member of a military company should not aerve on a Jury Juat the same as any one else. That law should be repealed or changed, for many men no doubt take advantage of It to escape Jury service.” Judge Roan stated that the law per mits military companies to sell mem berships for 125 apiece, and added that many men paid thla sum rather than serve on Juries. When asked for hla opinion In the matter. Colonel Clifford Anderson of the Fifth regiment admitted that each military company la allowed to sell twenty-flve memberships per year at 125 each. "But there are only nine companies which take advantage of this privi lege," said Colonel Anderson, "and If all of them were sold It would only eliminate 225 men from Jury duty In Fulton county. While I greatly respect Judge Roan's opinion. I do not think that this number would seriously inter fere with the courts." ,>ILES CURED IN 6 TO 14 DAYS, I'AZO UINTMKNT la guaranteed to care any rase of Itclilag, Blind, Bleeding or I'ro. trialing Piles la • to 14 days or mooay re* f u mini.
