This event (was In some re spects a success, and in others a fail ure. Finjaneially, it as a failure, and the receipts of the imatinee and evening performances yesterday fell several hundred dollars below the guarantee sum required toy the Boys Symphony orchestra. The directors of the Audito rium company feel a little ihit disgrunt ed (at the (public on account of its fail ure to patronize the openiiing event, and a liberal patronage would cer tainly have been most encouraging to the management . The attendance at the martdnee, owing (partly to the rain, was small, and in the evening there were' between 800 and 900 present. The truth is that the company was unfortunate in the selection of its op- ening attraction. The Boys' orchestra j has no prestige to appeal to the general public, accent on the "general." This is said without the intention of attache injg any blame whatever to the com pany. They spent months in "trying to ' ty.

"While there have flbeen no specific complaints made to me on the su'bject, my attention has been drawn to the matter though the newspapers as I have stated and if there is any" ground for (talk on the su'bject I have not' been cognizant vof it and I WOT see that the selection of the jurors is carried on strictly as I have outlined. n "The two commissioixers in, thiv judi cial district axe Mr. McKefeson and Mr. "Miller, who represent respectively the two main political parties." . The judge then questioned Deputy Clerk Logan in: regard to the number of jurors selected from the Western district of North Oarolina and was in formed by him that the number for this term was 450.
