Englith Jurors' Remuneration.
The scale of remuneration of English
common jurymen Is absurd. In a civl;
case In England a common Juryman In
allowed 5 shillings ($1.25) a day for "r
view" that is. for inspecting any prop
erty or thing in dispute but otherwise
he Is, In law, not entitled to any re
muneration. It Is usual, however. In
the high court to give him a fee of 1
shilling and In the counties 8 pence.
Special Jurymen receive much higher
remuneration. The fee In the county
court Is 1 shilling a rase. In the may
or's court 2 pence and In the London
sheriff's court 4 pence. Chambers'
Journal.
Not Hopeful.

A little girl sat gazing fixedly at tho

The child Innocently replied: "Yes.
I do. Mamma and Aunt Milly said It
was a perfect fright, but It doesn't
frighten me a bit."

John Goldsoll, patron of loveuiaking.
whose oceupatlonjs chief of tlie park
policemen In Cleveland, O.. recently an
nounced that he would give prizes to
couples who become engaged In the
parks and afterward marry. Bays a
Cleveland special to the New York
World. A short time ago Goldsoll an
nounced he would throw open the city
parks to couples who wished to make
love. In fact, he invited cooing maid
ens and lovesick swains to his baili
wick and promised them Immunity
from Interference. He forthwith in
structed bis cops to look the other way
if a young man should Uis3 a rosr
cheek. They were ordered not even
to smile when couples strolled through
the parks hand in hand.
"A photograph and a statement of
the circumstances surrounding the pro
posal must go with the prize park
bride application," said Goldsoll In ex
plaining his offer. "Notices, of park
engagements must be sent to me with
out delay, and a second notice should
be sent the day the marriage license Is
Issued."
When asked why he had made such
an offer the chief replied:
"To encourage spooning in the parks.
That's what the parks are for a plnce
for the lovesick. They've got mother's
front parlor leaten all hollow for love-making."
