One of the sad things that occurred at this term of court was the illness and death of Arch Minter, a juror empaneled for this term, from Northboro.   Mr. Minter came here under a nervous strain, having had a brother killed the week before, in an accident near Council Bluffs connected with a threshing machine, and before that, last summer, suffered a sunstroke. While stopping at the hotel, awaiting his turn on the jury, he began acting queerly.   His brother and wife were called from Northboro, and it was determined that the best plan would be to commit him to the state hospital, which was done, with his consent, and they took him there last week Tuesday. This week Tuesday he died, having never recovered from the nervous attack.   The remains were shipped Wednesday afternoon to his home in Nortlboro, near which place he has been running a farm, in connection with his brother, the two brothers having married two sisters, and together the four have been living on the farm and running it jointly.
