"Kidnaping being charged in the Indictment.
"It waa error to charge the jury uh

"It was error to charge the law us
to kidnaping under the facts of the

"That the absence of young men,
or nieu under the uge of thirty years,
among the original panel of Jurors,
is evidence of discrimination.
"The refusal of the coUrt to permit

witnesses as to the factH upon
which their opinion wus based and
to fully examine them about what was
i done and what was not done in connection
with the events leading up to
and occurring at the time of and immediately
after the commission of the

opinions, prior to the trial which were
not disclosed to the court.
