The liveliest Christmas selling ever known is now going" on The Liberty. Despondent and out of v.ork, John H. Ward, 19 years old, whose home Is in Toronto, shot and killed himself in his bedroom at "his boarding house at No. 231 Swan Street, sometime yesterday morning. His body was found lying in a pool of blood across his bed by John Laverty, with whom the dead young: men boarded.

Ward apparently ended his Ufa by standing In front of a large looking glass, and pointing a revolver at his body, rent a bullet into his heart. Deputy Medical Examiner Howland wnti notified and ordered the body removed to the Morgue. He said the young man was dead about an hour when discovered, and that death had been instant. When Ward's personal effects' were discovered the following note, addressed to John Laverty, was found on his dresser: 1 "I am tired of this living an Idle life, so I "will end it all by committing suicide. Good-bye, John." Little Is known of the young man by the people with whom he lived.

He came to this city last September and secured employment at the Buffalo Lounge Company. About three weeki? ago he lost his position at the factory and day after day he searched the city for work with futile result. His failure to secure employment led him to commit the deed which ended his life. Thousands have daily crowded our stores carrying away with them wonderful bargains and thousands' will follow this week while busy hands replace with fresh goods the articles taken away. Such Christmas bargains as we offer would crowd any store 3 and the next three days the crowds will be greater than ever come early in the day if you can; if not, we will be open evenings until Christmas but don't fail to come for these 4 Incomparable Christmas Bargains.

THE Rev. Zi. M. Powers addressed the Socialist Labor party at Florence Hall yesterday afternoon on the subject of "Socialism," stirring the members of the party to en argument long and loud.

The Rev. Mr. Powers prefaced his remarks' by saying that he expected his views would be taken as harsh and as he i took issue with the party on many of its vital doctrines he opened up a field for discussion that was not lost. The position taken by the Rev. Mr.

Powem was that Socialism would stifle ambition and progress, and put a premium on Incapacity or laziness. He also characterized compulsory socialism as a species of slavery and said that he believed in the slow progress of evolution rather than the violent one of revolution. It was his opinion that the Socialists seemed to have taken materialism as a god, in the place of the ancient Jehovah. Comrades Lewis from England and Reinstein and others present took up Ithe argument and the meeting lasted three hours, confusion reigning most pf the time. i BUILDING ORDINANCES.

THE teachers of the city begin a two-weeks' vacation today. They doubly need a rest this year, for beside their regular school work, they have managed a stupendous bazaar to a $34,000 success. Many of the teachers will spend their holiday season of rest in the city; many are taking trips visiting friends to the north, east, south and west.

Johnny Storck's Place at Ferry Street Is No More, John W. Storck's ancient fish-frying establishment beside the Erie Canal at the foot of Ferry Street that for so many years has been the rendezvous of politicians, has passed out of existence much to the regret of the genial souls who heretofore were wont to gather there and eat fish and build political fences. The Storck establishment was located on State land and was taken down to make way for the new bridge which the State is erecting in place of the old and inadequate structure that now leads to the Ferry Street docks.

During the past, week the sale of pictures amounted to over $5,000. One of the most noticeable results of the exhibit has been the fact that It has shown Buffalonians the skill and artistic ability of some of our local artists. The show has been so successful that it will very likely be made an annual affair.

They only a small fee, while a Supreme Court juror gets $3 a day and his Some men who sit on the Supreme Court Juries. It is said, simply make a riving out of that office. They do nothing but sit on Juries.

Particularly does this relate to the farmers from the country. If they can sit on Jury In a case which will last a week or so, they are making good money, compared with what they would make on the farm. Furthermore, they are sure of getting their pay, and thi'y do not have to wait a long time for It, either. It is different with the resident of the city. Those who are compelled to devote time and energy to therr business do not care to sit on juries.

In the first place, the compensation is hardly satisfactory, compared with what they can make In their business enterprises. This applies directly to th business man. Many prominent men are summoned to serve as Jurors and they cannot afford to give up their valuable time In determining civil and criminal cases in the Supreme Court. However, there are some men who do not fail to take advantage of the summons served upon them, and they state on the fitand, when being examined, that they are willing to sit as Jurors and render an impartial verdict according to the evidence as presented by both sides. Those who have plenty of time to spend and can find nothing ro do will find an abundance of amusement In listening to the examination of some of the Juror when called to the etand.

If a Juror is willing to sit on the Jury he will state out and out that he is ready to serve, and there Is no reason why he should not prove an able, competent and satisfactory juror. On the other hand, the man who does not care to sit on the Jury will eay why he does not care to do so, and drop certain remarks which would be to the disadvantage of one side or the other. Therefore, he obtains his dismissal in very short order. Much time is generally taken up In the work of securing a Jury satisfactory to the prosecution and the defense in a murder trial. Some Jurors state they believe 1n circumstantial evidence, which Is not to the liking of the defense, and while the man may be satisfactory to the prosecution, he is not the kind of a juror the defence cares for.

In ome murder trials as many as three panel of Jurors have been and It has been nec'sary for the Justice of the court to issue summons right from the bench for Jurors. apiut; anu rauuy lv.so "The School a Social Unit," Ossian H.

ONE of the greatest troubles that a lawyer experiences in trying Jury cases in the Municipal Court is getting Jurors. Quite frequently cases are delayed and are adjourned upon numerous occasions because of the failure to get a satisfactory Jury'- Unlike those of the Supreme Court, jurors In the Municipal Court are not served with summons some time previous to appear at a certain date in the court for examination as to their qualifications to serve as Jurors in a lawsuit.

Instead, it is the duty of the constables to go out and notify men to appear In court. Men do not care to serve aa Jurors on small cases like those that are taken up before the Municipal Court Judges. While there may be pome interesting points In law Involved in the case, it Is really a trial for a business man to ait on a Jury and listen to all the arguments of an apparently uninteresting character. The points may be interesting to the lawyers and also to the Judge, but to the juror they seem all rot. That lr one reason why men do not care to sit as Jurors in the lower courts.
