ISAAC LEVIXGER, retired hotel keeper. Without the least sign of the cyclonic outbursts which marked previous trials nf the graft cases, the jury to try Theo dore V. Haisey, charged with bribing Max M&mlock, a supervisor on the old boodle board, was completed yesterday afternoon, the selection taking less than two days. The trial proper will V<\nin Monday morning. Kxcept for one little clash the pro ceedings were as harmonious as a church organ. The exception was when Bert Schlesinger, attorney for Haisey, In examining a juror, asked him if he would not be prejudiced, knowing that Haisey had been "singled out for prose cution." •"U'ljat tlo you mean by that?" said A^sisiuru District Attorney MeXutt. "Counsel," said Judge Emmet Sea- T.ell, looking .sternly at Schleslnger. "will keep strictly to material points." That was the last. The rest of the talking v.-as to the talesman and affairs moved so rapidly that shortly after 4 o'clock In the afternoon lh«r jury had been selected, sworn and stood ready to hear the evidence. The Jir.st six jurors were chosen at the morning session. These were George C. Smart, a retired dairyman; Edward St&hdqutst. concrete contrac tor: Julian Brock, retired clerk; Frank Elgin, contractor; William H. Manuell, a store keeper employed by the Pacific steamship company, and G. Gaeteke, saloon keeper. Soon after the opening -of the afternoon session A. V. Franzi, haberdasher, and Martin Hanson, capi talist, were added to the list. A slight deadlock followed before the box was finally filled by Joseph Rubin, theatrical costumer; George D. Lucy, soap manu facturer; Albert Meyer, a prominent l>anker and brother of Daniel Meyer, and Isaac Levinger, a retired hotvl keeper. The state used only one peremptory challenge and that In the case of A. C. Rulofson. The defense used seven. \ The first evidence to be given Mon day morning will be the submission of ;<3ocuments and papers consisting of Jcity records dealing with the proposed franchise. Just which one of jihe old boodle board will be put on the .stand first was not given out. As much {-of the matter hat been thrashed over \u25a0"before the probabilities are that the r«ase will move rapidly. •HIGH SCHOOL CLASSES ELECT THEIR OFFICERS Students Choose Offi cials for the Term ff Special Dispatch to The Call] '\u25a0\u25a0 STOCKTOX, S*pt. 23.— The students . <©f the high school held their class elections last evening.

Sept. 23.— One hundred and fifteen Stockton businessmen par ticipated last night in the first social session of the Stockton merchants* as sociation, which consisted of a trip to the "dungeon" of the new hotel. The committee. Mike Conway, Charles Tost and Nate Cohn, kept the nature of the affair a secret. The businessmen arrived at the hotel at 8 o'clock, and were Instructed to don cooks' aprons and caps. When everybody was so at tired the crowd made its way to a basement corridor 75 or 100 feet long. Darkness prevailed and "thunder" roared. Suddenly the corridor burst Into light and the end of the Journey was at hand. A room of large Qimensions had been converted into a scene of country life. The cement floor was covered with sawdust, the walls with cornstalks and branches of trees. 1 . Placed in a great circle were boxes, upon each of which was a lighted can dle. The guests were assigned seats on the boxes. - ANIMALS IX ROOM There was a regular menagerie in the basement. In a stall was a bull, while placed in a prominent position was the sign: "This Bull is Enough — Cut Out the Rest." A chicken roost adjoined the stall, while ducks and geese ran among the guests. Two little pigs fea&ted on pumpkins, but kept a safe distance from a tame bear chained in the center of the room. A raccoon slept peace fully during the excitement. A burro, rabbits and other animals apparently enjoyed the situation. There was also the old oaken bucket. On a common house blind was the inscrip tion: "Please Help the Blind." N "Some Scenes Down on the Farm," "Don't Kid the Waiters" and numerous other signs created a great deal of in terest. The motto of the oceasion-^ 'ifVhat Shall We Do With the Knocker? Kill Him" — occupied a prominent place. 11. W. Lewis presided and called or der by ringing a cowbell. A supper consisting of relishes, oyster cocktail and broiled beef on toast was served. The beef was broiled on a large broiler installed in the dungeon for the special occasion. Police and Fire Commissioner New ton Rutherford, Attorney Charles Neu niijler and W. C.
