Judge Rice then announced that the jury would be placed in the hands of the sheriff and on agreement of counsel. both for the prosecution and the j defense, it was decided that the remainder of the afternoon would be necessary for counsel to confer with witnesses and that an adjournment .would take place until 9:30 o'clock "Wednesday morning. Judge Rice in- structed the sheriff to allow no one to ( -communicate with any member of the jury under any circumstances and said ~that he proposed to see to it that no unfairness of any kind be tolerated while this trial is in progress. >Ir. Blease asked the court if the -prisoner, l\V. Ernest Isenhower, should place himself in the hands of the sheriff or could remain on bond until the finding of the court. Judge Rice Was of the opinion that he should give himself up to the sheriff when arraigned and this course was followed. Isenhower was taken in charge by Sheriff Brown. , Every door to the York county court hou6e was closely guarded and every man entering was searched at :he main door. Xo one was permitted *o enter within the bar except court officials, attorneys and newspaper men. Sheriff Brown of York has taken every precaution to prevent any trouble occurring and has sworn in 15 special deputies for the occasion, these being distributed in all parts of the court room, where any disturbance can be quickly quelled. The following are the special officers serving: A. J. Parrott, Meek Parish, Carson Hendricks, Carson Lattimore, Floyd Stephenson, I Coon McKnight. F. E. Quinn. R. L. Wilkerson. C. G. Purslev, W. R.

It had been expected that a large crowd would be in town today, but in this respect there was some surprise. '.Mere people were presen: than could enter the court room, but no such congestion existed as had been expected, i; 1 number of people, probably 150 or 300, are present from different sections of Fairfield and Chester countics, the homes cf those mcst vitally interested in he case. it is expected that the largest attendance will be on the concluding day I " of the trial when the attorneys will make their arguments. !vl embers of counsel say today thai there is little probability of the first ' trial being completed before Friday, if then. It seems to be conceded that che other two defendants. Jesse Morrison and Jim Rawls, will be tried campaign shore. THEY REFUSE TO DO IT School Teachers Refused to "Strip to the Waist." Atlanta, Dec. 7.?The several hundred young ladies who are teaching :n the public schools of Atlanta, have 'mnounced firmly that they are not go Ing to "strip to the waist" to be examined by Dr. W. X.

It appears that the protest of the teachers is going to be upheld, and \ that if any such medical examinations are required provision will be made fcr each teacher to be examined by hc^d own family doctor. The strip-to-the-waist idea was something new in school medical ex-. animations in Atlanta, and spread consternation when Dr. Adkins an-; nounced that such was going to be hi?
