PRESSING TASKS CAUSED NEGLECT FOR HER WEDDING Toronto, Oct. 25.--To have so much pressing work on hand that one has to neglect preparations for. one's wedding has been the fate so far of Miss Lisl Hummel, soon to marry Dr. Borsook, of the staff of Toronto University. A guest of the Heliconian Club the other day, Miss Hummel (the Vienese artist whose work in silhouettes has made her internationally known as an illustrator) was afraid to ven- ture on a speech in English; but privately she admitted it was rath- er hard to have to concentrate on illustrations for a promised book, and have to give up the delights of planning a trousseau or helping to search for an apartment.

The ruler accepted the invitation and spent most of the forenoon watching the procedure with intent interest. The. notorious murder of a man and his wife was the first case to be tried under the new jury system. Communists arrested here in the spring will probably demand jury trials, The qualifications for jurymen de- mand that they be Japanese and more than thirty. years old. They must al- so be paying more than three yen as a national tax and must have resi- dence in the same village, town or city for more than two years. It is also necessary for jurymen to he com- petent in reading and writing Japan- ese. When they are appointed to a jury, they are to be isolated in the dormitory . When a member =f the jury is called upon by a friend or re- lative on account of inevitable «cir cumstances, the conversation must take place in the presence of the court officials. In case it js necessary for a jury member to speak with any one cver the telephone, the message must be communicated by a court attendant. A juryman may drink a certain amount of liquor but he is not per- mitted to read any newspapers which contain a story about the case om trial. The introduction of the jury system of trial has been arousing a great deal of public interest. A mimic trial according to the new system was staged recently. The hall was packed to capacity long before the opening of the session and the audience sat tiently for more than seven hours espite an intense heat to witness the entire show.
