Guthrie. O. T., Fob. 23. (Special.) Judge Burford this morning handed down s decision in the Hopkins habeas corpus t ,3e. holding that "the petitioner, having t n tried and convicted, and punishment i toted by a tribunal -which possesses r .-e of the functions or powers of a ju-u-.ial nature, his commitment is void, a- d Sie must be discharged.' The decision upholds every contention raised h the i-rgumewt of the attorneys for the audi ta particularly that a territorial legis 4. ture has no inherent judicial power. The decision points out, though, that it d jQs not follow that the legislative ascem- .y has no protection in the discharge f its duties, and asserts that if the peti- .ner has been guiKy of the contempt -i th which he has been charged, he is iKe to punishment under the provisions the crimes act, which makes it a mis "neanor for any person to refuse to .stify "before any committee or to refuse t produce books or papers under his con- n -when required. This course will jbably bo pursued by the investigating mmittee, twhich. apparently, la deter r ned to pus ttie investigation to the rait. This is the first real culmlnation,of the fictional division in the Republican ranks i i OklaJboma. The recent edition of the -ubl began at the organization of the fislature. In the council, as was the -pral custom, President McCredie pre rod his committees and announced -rn. Three councillors, Republicans, cJtndy, (Hutto and Houston, voted with Democrats and defeated the president naming his committees. These three c 'incillors were supposedly inspired by G emor Barnes. That opened the .fight, c- rather, reopened a contest of a year's .-.iino. rm,& vMtnail In course of time c-. ated an' investigating -committee.lto I V. Info rSe condirrsrdf terrltoriar dfS e s.

Judge Burford heard the '.mments and now gives Hopkins his iarge- The attempt to harmonize the ""n-ences at Guthrie has failed and the c will continue. rv.e decision of Judge Burford estab .-s a precedent as to the powers of "torlal legislative bodies and Is re- iuced here, as follows. In full: ,i re Hopkins, petitioner; application f writ of habeas corpus: 'It appears from the records and evi e in this case that the Fifth legisla- assembly now in sears Ion passed a current resolution authorising the ap- ment of three members from each -e to act as a joint committee to in- gate certain matters relating to the il concerns of said territory and the itiet of certain offices. That the joint mittee met and organized by electing of its members charirman and an- r secretary of the committee. That the loner is the duly appointed, qualified i acting auditor of said territory, and the custody and control of all the K.5. vouchers, files and records relating e expenditure of the public funded of p I territory .which are kept in his ofilee 'he city of Guthrie. That the legita- investigating committee Issued and id to be served upon the auditor a rena. duces tecum, commanding hint' lopear before the committee and bring n him certain vouchers and stubs of "rants relating to expenditures by the -'ant general's department of the ter--. The auditor appeared before the mittee and offered to testify fully and limit to the committee at his office .i- books) records, files and papers un m control and furnish them every at his command tor investigating f accounts. The committee declined his 'i!on, and directed Urn to produce documents at the committee room. 1' the auditor declined to do. Hie only question of difference between t auditor and the committee was v. i -her the examination should be made a le office of the auditor or at the room .ne committee. The auditor claimed i: the papers were valuable, that he was r sensible for them. and that if b took m from the office they were liable to -ne lost, destroyed or mutilated. The '-.mittee then proposed to let him retain -n in h.s custody at the committee room c same were being examined. Each v declined to yield; each stood on their" dignity and the resut: was that the mittee reported the matter of the aud- refusal to the council, and that body aed him in contempt and ordered hi sonment fat the county jail of Logan t -ty until he should indicate to the coun c h-s willingness to produce the doca-r--": before the committee. The auditor -n b taken in custody by the under-sheriff a i detained until the writ issued in this s when he waa admitted to bail pending tb heanng of this cause. There was coa f Arable haste and irrernlaritie in the e tr.aer of the triaVard convictkm of the neuiloaer, bet not ceh as a tis jedymast of the court would render the judgment void. "The first question presented for inquiry is whether the legislative assembly had the right to require him to take the books and papers from his office. It has been held by an unbroken line of adjudications that the legislative bodies whoee duty it is to make laws have the right to make such investigations of the fiscal concerns and public affaire, concerning which they are called upon to legislate, as will enable them to properly and Intelligently legislate regarding such matters. And in order to the better perform these functions they may appoint committees and empower such committees to take testimony, subpoena witnesses, and make reports as may be directed by the authority appointing them. The resolution under which the committee was acting when the auditor was adjudged guilty of contempt, upon its face appear to relate to legislative matters and to have for its object the ellcltation of infor mation proper for the guidance of the law makers in discharging their duties to the public. "It ha3 been said by one eminent jurist that such committees are often used for political, partisan and vindictive purposes, and are not always conducive to good gov ernment; but a court that cannot look to the purposes or motives back of a resolu tion o fthis character, but must look to its contents and will always presume tnat the legislative body is acting in good faith, and that the purpose of an investigation is to obtain possession of the Information necessary to a faithful and intelligent dis charge of an Important trust. "Was the auditor required, under the law, to produce at the committee rooms the papers demanded? It seems to me that there can be but one answer to this question. The office of auditor is purely a territorial office. He deals only with territorial matters. The office was cre ated by the Jegislative assembly. The leg islature Is required to make appropria tions for the salary, expenses and mainte nance of said office. The act creating the office defines the duties of the auditor and among other duties required of him, it is provided in section 5042: 'Whenever required he shall submit his books, accounts and vouchers to the in spection of the legislative assembly or any committee appointed for that purpose by the legislature or governor.' 'It certainly cannot be seriously con tended that the auditor could require the legislature to meet and hold a session at his office to Inspect his book?, and yet if he can require a committee of the leg islature to come to his office, he could, under the same rule, require the legisla tive assembly Itself to come for a like purpose. He cannot be heard fo say that the papers are bulky or numerous, or that it will consume great time or be burden some to take the papers before the leg islature or before "the committee appoint ed by the legislature to inspect them. When ho assumes the office and accepts its emoluments, he assumes all its duties, burdens, and obligations; one of which is that if he Is required by the legislature, the governor or any committee aroint ed by either to inspect hifi books and papers, he shall submit them for such in spection, at the place where the legisla ture or its committee are lawfully con vened. The provisions of law requiring him to keen these papers eafely in his office must be construed with all t'ae other provisions of the statute defining the duties of auditor, so as to make all operative and effectuate the purpose and Intent. "So far as It is now apparent to the court, the resolution under which the com mittees were acting was a proper one, and had for its object the acquiring of infor mation proper for the legislative assem bly zo be in possession of. The auditor was required by the jrocess issued and served on him to submit the papers called for to the committee, and when so required it was his duty to have complied with the request. As a matter of protection to pub lic property, as a matter of convenience to public officers, as a means of expediting public business, and as a matter of safety to valuable public records, it might have been the better part of wisdom for the committee to have examined these papers at the office and in the places where they are filed and kept. But this was a matter of choice with the committee, and not wKh the auditor. They bad the r.ght to require their production before the commiTTee. They stood upon their rights, and It was the duty of the auditor, under the statute regulating his duties, to have complied. "Under the statutes and law reculatlnsr the conduct of this committee it had the authority to take testimony, to examine documents, to subpoena witnesses, and make reports to their respective houses. It has been suggested that the power to subpoena witnesses and take testlmonv necessarily embraces the power as an in cident thereto and for the protection of its rights, to enforce the attendance of wit nesses and punish for contempt. This proposition fa unsound. This power belongs to courts and bodies exercising judicial functions, but it is not a ceneral rower. As proof of the latter statement I need only refer to the cases wherein referees, masters in chancery, court commissioners, notaries public, referees in bankruatcv, legislative committees, boards of county commissioners and other similar officers and bodies, all of whom may issue process for witnesses, hear testimony and deter mine certain facts, but none of whom in this territory have the power to compel attendance of witnesses or punish for fail ure to attend or testify. This brings us to the pivotal question in this case: the one upon which much has been written and said, and yet one which is, so far as I am able to determine after an examination of all the books at my command, absolutely without precedent. Has the legislature the power to aonUh for contempt? If It has. then upon the record and facts in this case, the petitioner must be remanded to the custody of the ouicer to answer the Judgment of the leg islative council. If it has not this power, then he must be discharged. "Subordinate to the main auactios, it must be determined whether or not the act of determining the rui!t of one charged with contempt and assessins- his nunteh jaent at imprisonment fc? an exercise of judicial power. Upon this question. I think there can be no serious controversy. The authorities are practically unanimous to the effect that rendering a jndement against a person for contempt and pre scribing a punishment therefor is not only the exercise of judicial power, but i to some extent th enforcement of criminal remedies. 'The power to render a judgment which deprives a person of his liberty swt pre suppos the power to hear and determine the charge upon which he is arraigned, and for which fae is to be tried. The power to hear and determine is a judicial power, and can only be exercised by some person, body or tribunal clothed with at least some ju dicial power. To try a case of contempt mad adjtodre ptntichmeat Is an exevdee of judicial 30wer la r Huron, SS Kansas, Costfceed ot: Third Pag. Blows Alone Will Bring the Filipino to Time, FLOWER OF THE REGULARS Inured to Service in theTopics, Will Do the Work. "Washington, Feb. 23. The war depart ment has arranged to dispatch further re inforcements to General Otis at Manila. The regiments selected are the Ninth in fantry, now at New Tork, and the Sixth infantry, at San Antonio, Texas. Both these regiments will go by way of San Francisco. It is expected that the trans ports taking them will be able to leave by Mach 15. By that time General Otis will have received all the reinforcements now afloat and bound for Manila, save those on the Sheridan, which sailed from New York last Suday. This will give him 6,000 more troops, made up of the flower of the United States army, regulars tried in Indian service, the mose of them inured to the Cuban climate In its worst as petcs. having participated in the cam paigns there during the last wet season. Every report that comes to the war de partment goes to convince the officials that an offensive campaign must be immedi ately assumed in the Philippines. This is no longer a matter of choice, but of ne cessity against which, the officials say, sentimental considerations can not stand. In their opinion, the lives and health of American troops now in the neighborhood of Manila depends upon the initiation of &uc a campaign. General Otis reports big fires in Manila yesterday and last night, agreeing closely with the press, he makes mention of a rather -formidable demonstra tion by the insurgents near Calcoocan, the scene of some of the heaviest fighting suceeding the first engagement with the Insurgents on the loth. This is taken as an indication that the rebe:s have not yet been t horoughly impressed with the impressed with the strength of the Amer ican arms. A disquieting feature noted in the press reports is the presence of small bodies of armed insurgents within the American outposts, possibly an evidence that our lines are too far extended and too far from Manila. It is realized that it will bo necessary to sweep the country clear of all hostile elements. The task will be a difficult one. because of the re semblance of the Filipinos to one another, which would make it hard to distinguish between a non-combatant ad a out-and-out rebel. A most serious problem confronts Gen eral Otis in the protection of Manila and tbo suburban. teviTM from firer not only be cause of the treacherous character of the rebel Filipinos, but also because outside of the business establishments the houses are built of the flimsiest bamboo, hung with matting screens. Even the floors are made of strips of bamboo, separated so as to allow the free circulation of air. It is within the power of almost any person to sc lire to these houses from without or within in a. few seconds, and as they are closely built, the ravages of a single fire in a quarter so closely constructed might easily reach the half million dollar point mentioned by General Otis in his dispatch. The foreign quarter is of better construc tion, but still includes many of these light bamboo houses, which the older residents seem to fid cooler than houses of more solid construction. The walled town, which the insurgents threaten to burn to night, is said to be of substantial con struction ad probably Is more easily de feded against such an attempt than any other section of the town. The officials here say that if the rebels continue this sort of tactics in Manila, disregarding the rules of war and jeopardizing the lives of women and children and foreigners who are ot invkwed In the war. General Otis will be under the necessity of making a houseto-house inspection and summarily disposing of all suspicious characters. HALF-MILLION PROPERTY LOSS Several Soldiers Sshot and no Teliinjr How Dlany Filipino. Washington, Feb. 23 Ge"oral Otis today cabled the war departm as follows: "Determined endeavors to burn city last night. Buildings rtred in three different sections of the city.

In the meantime jimall bodies of rebel?, evi dently some of those engaged last night ia the cowardly work at Tonto. spread out between the city and the outpost.

OTIS WILL CURFEW THEM Filipinos Will Stay Ont X.ater Than 7 p. m. at Their Peril. Manila, Feb. 23.-5:33 p. m. Major Gen eral Otis today issued a general order di recting all the inhabitants of Manila, un til otherwise ordered, to confine them selves to their homes after 7 o'clock in the evening, when the streets will be cleared by the police. The general aiso warns incendiaries and suspects that they will be severely dealt with if discovered ia any locality. Extraordinary precau tions have been taken for the suppression of further trouble, which is threatened to take place in the city tonight. But it is generally believed last night's experience will effectively quell the disturbing ele ment. Fire has been burning In the Tondo dis trict all day and has hem clearing the residents out of many houses in the out skirts, from which the enemy previously fired on the Americans. A cloud of smoke hovered over the city today, conveying tha Impression to the people about t" bay and in the outside districts that the who.s city is burning. The rebels between the city and the outposts are being smoked out this afternoon and driven toward tne beach. Sharpshooters at various prts of the line are very annoying, but otherwise there has been no further excitement since the frustration of the morning's attack. Lieutenant Eugene S. French, of the First Montana volunteers, and Private Oscar Felton of company C, South Dakota volun teers, were killed and two othariDakoians were wounded. WARSHIPS AT HONOLULU Enronte to Manila; Deaths on the Senator and Scamlia. San Francisco, Cal., Feb. 23. The steam er City of Pekin arrived today from the Orient via Honolulu and brings the follow ing advices to the Associated Press from Honolulu, under date of February 15: Warships and transports of the United States have been well represented at the port during the fit ten days. At this time both the Oregon and Philadelnhla are here.

The battle ship Oregon arrived on the sixth from Cal lao, with all well on board. On the way over she stopped two days at Galaaasos Island for coal. The big vessel Is,' anchored in the roadstead here and will not come in side of the harbor. The Oregon is likely to remain here two or three weeks. The Honolulu Iron "Works is engaged on some repairs for her which will take at least ten days to complete. There was an accidental death on the voyage on the transport Senator from San Francisco to Honolulu. At 9 o'clock on the evening of February 1; Corporal Ab bott, company B, Twentieth infantry, fell overboard while seasick and was lost. He was a native of Kentucky. He went through the Cuban campaign.

EAQAN Begins His Testimony Before the Beef Court OFFICERS OF SUBSISTENCE Wipe Up the Earth With Miles' Charges. Washington, D. C. eb. 23.-The testimony of Colonel J. F. Weston, who was. at the outbreak of the war. assistant commissary general, and who now is the successor of Commissary General Charles P. Eazan. together with the appearance of General Eagan. was the feature of today's pro ceedings of the court of inquiry In investi gating the charges of General Miles as to the beef supply to the army while in Cuba and in Porto Rico. Each contended that the canned roast beef was an wholesome and nutritious component of the army ra tion, and took issue with the regular army officers who have criticised It. Resardlng the refrigerated beef the testimony of to day tended to show that it was satisfac tory. General Eagan took Issue with Gen eral Miles in regard to beef on the hoof being the best supply of fresh beef to the army, insisting that that course was un desirable in any country where the animal heat in the beef could not disappear before cookinc Captain Alexander R. Piper, of the sub sistence department of volunteers, said that in Porto Rico beef on the hoof, native cattle, in connection with canned, corned ad roast beef, was issued. Native beef was issued, he thought, five days out of ten until August 11. after which, under In structions of Colonel Sharp, corps com missary, he drew refrigerated beef from the Massachusetts. General J. F. Weston, who was General Shatter's head of the commissary in the Santiago campaign zh. succeeded General Eagan as commissary general of the army, testified that the whole subject of fresh beef was considered thoroughly prior to the army going to Cuba, and the conclu sion reached that canned roast beef was the best thing obtainable. He was then and is still of the opinion, that next to refrigerated beef ad beef on hte hoof, can ned roast beef is the best meat supply. Conditions in the Santiago campaign made refrigerated beef and live cattle impossi bilities. Under Cuba's trying heat, canned beef became uninviting in appearance, but remained very palatable in stews. hTe complains he attributed to the fact that the me were run down by the time thav reached Santiago, and were kept up by excitement When the campaign ended the excitement relaxed ad they went to pieces. Speaking of the Ponce preservative pro cess experiment. Colonel Weston said the commisry department had nothing whatever officially to do with it.. Mr. Edwards, he said, representing Armour Co., came to him and said some beef, was coming that would be treated and he asked witness if he would not put It on ship and see how long it would keep. The beef arrived and witness aeked Pow ell what had been done to tne bef. and the latter replied that nothing Injurious was In the treatment. He had furnished beef for years to Florida hotels and he believed the beef In question would kea 72 hours, and If so, and the government would contract, the full process would be explained. Six or seven quarters were taken and put on the ships. Some wss In canvas asd some not. The former held out 7&-ood hours, while the uncanvase.l beef "went up pretty quickly." Colonel Weston declared emphatically that the government had no connection with the experiment. It was nearlv 4 o'clock when former Commissary Geseral Eagan. who bad ar rived from New Tork. was presented to the court. Proceeding In response to a question, he said that in introducing canned roast beef it was the intention to use It as an incidental, so that the men could take It or not, as they likd. The first compliment about tms beef came from Captain Philip Reed, of the commis sary department Witness was surprised and at once ordered all officers who had this beef, to examine and report.. The responses indorsed the beef. General En gan said that when the war oame th-rc were three plans for a fresh beef supply refrigerated beef. bef on the hoof to be furnished by contractors, and for ho government to own its own herd. Ail hH experience taosht him the undosirabiiity of the government owning Its herd. Re frigerated bef he considered first ohoic. and when the beef concerns offered it and guaranteed its preservation, he accepted it. Without concluding the hearing of General Eagan's testimony, tho court ad journed until tomorrow morning. DR. LOWRY GIVES IT UP Confesses Judgement In tho JKaraons Breach of Promise Salt.

Harry Coralsh. es the witaeas seaad at the Adams Inquest today, accueed Roland Moliaeaux of hav ing sent him the poisoned bcomo-esltser. His story was that he thought MoHacax had sent Mat the poison, because ho was the only man who had shown great en mity toward him: that he had Med about him and per?ecnted him; that bo had Ucd about other ia the club: that there waa an enmity between Baraet and Monnoaux. aad that Mohaeaux haa started stortta about members of the Knickerbocker Ath letic dub.

T., Feb. 22 (Special.) There have been many reports pro and con re garding the Northwestern Xormal col lege, of Alva. A paitial description of this magnificent building will, it is hoped, be of Interest to ithe readers of the Eagle, especially those of the eastern part of Oklahoma. The building is 157 feet front, 331 feet deep; three Ftories, central part, with basement; -wings, two stories; assem bly room, one story: 93 feet from. sll to pinnacle of tower; ten rooms first floor, nino rooms second floor, two rooms third floor. It is heated by Sturdevant hot bias" lighted -with acetyline gas, with plant 100 feet from building. The water protection Is two tanks of 150 barrels each, in the attics of tflie second story, besides a 500 4arrel cistern, wirh hoso on each floor and connections -with steam pump in base ment. The building is nearly flnwhel and :s one of tho most substantial and beautiful west of the Missouri river. Th- lacatisn is unsurpassed, it being on a. hill south of Alva, one-fourtii of a mile, and on an elevation of about seventy-five feet. The vlow from tlie building is simply grami, as one can see up and down tna Sal: Fork north and south for from ten to flften miles. Kiowa, Kan., eighteen mi'es northeast, is distinctly visible from the third story, and tho many farm nouses and groves along the river makes the view one of the finest in the territory. Take it all in all, it Is a building tho -wholo territory should be proud of, as it is a credit to any country, east or west. Where Cab Fares are Cheap.

ALL VERY WELL TO ADAPT Old Creeds to New Times, But Beware of New Creeds. Baltimore, Feb. 23. The approved trans lation of the pope's letter to Cardinal Gib bons, giving tho papal views on "Ameri canism," heretofore covered briefly in the Associated Press cable dispatches, was made public here today. His holiness, commenting on tne controversy which has grown out of the French translation of the life of the late Father Hecker, founder of the Society of Paulists, a distinctly American order, says that the rule of life laid down for Catholics by the Vatican council is not of such nature that it can not accommodate itself to tho exigencies of various times and places. The church has at all times been what St. Paul said of himself: 'I became all things to all men that I might save all.' In regard to ways of living, the church has been accus tomed to so yield that, the divine prini ples of morals being kept Intact, ehe has never neglected to accommodate herself to the character and genius of the nations which she embraces. But in this present matter there is great danger and manifest opposition to Catholic doctrine and dieci nline and in the oinion of the lovers of novelty that allowance should be granted the faithful, each one to follow out more freely the leading of his own mind and the trend of his own proper activity. Such reasoning is evidently faulty. Xo one should wish to depart from the infallible teaching authority of the church. The confounding of license with liberty, the passion for duscissing and pouring con tempt upon any possible subject, the as sumed right to hold whatever opinions one pleasea upon any subject and to set them forth In print to the world, have so wrapped minds in darkness that there is now a greater need of the church's teach ing office than ever before, lest people be come unmindful both of conscience and of duty." The pope says that while he believes there was no thought of wrong or guile In the opinions of Father Hecker, yet they certainly merit some degree of suspicion, and he proceeds to point out at length those opinions which ho regards as inimi cal to the church authorities and as be ing heretical in spirit. His holiness pro ceeds: "In the apostolic letters concerning the constitution of states addressed by U9 to the bishops of the whole church, we dis cussed this point at length; and there set forth tJie differences existing between the church, which is a divine society, and all other social human organizations, which depend simply on the free will and choice of men. It is well, then, to particularly dlrect attention to the opinion which serves as the argument in behalf or this greater liberty sought for and recommended to Catholics. "It is alleged that now, the Vatican de cree concerning the infallible teaching authority of thq Roman pontiff having been proclaimed, that nothing further ton that score can give any solicitude and, ac cordingly, since that has been safeguarded and put beyond question, a wider and fretr field both for thought and action lies open to -each one. But such reasoning is evidently faulty, since, If we are to come to any conclusion from the infallible teach ing of the church it should rather be that no one should wish to depart from it, and, moreover, that, the minds of all being leavened and directed thereby, greater se curity from private error would be en joyed by all. And further, those who avail themselves of such a way of reasoning seem to depart seriously from the over ruling wisdom of the Most High, -which wisdom, since it was pleased to set forth by solemn decision, the authority and su preme teaching rights of this apostolic see willed that decision precisely in "order to safeguard tho minds of the ohurch s children from the dangers of these pres ent times. These dangers, viz.: The con founding of license with liberty, the pas sion for duscljwlng and pouring contempt upon any possible subject, the assumed right to hold whatever opinions one pleases uon a'jy subject and to set them forth in print to the world, have so wrapped us in darkness that there is now a greater need of tho church's teaching office than ever before, lest people become unnrfndful both of conscience and of duty. We, indeed, have no thought of rejecting everything that modern industry and study has pro duced; so far from it that we welcome to tha patrimony of truth and to an ever widening scope of public well-being what soever helps toward the progress of learn ing and virtue. Yet, all this, to be of any solid benefit, nay, to have a real exist ence and growth, can only be on the con dition of recognizing the wisdom and au thority of the church. "Coming now to speak of the conclusions which have been deduced from the above opinions, and for them, we readily believe there was no thought of wrong or guile, yet the things themselves certainly merit pome degree of suspicion. First, all ex ternal guidance is set aside for those eoula who are striving after Chrlsilan perfec tion as being that the Holy Spirit pours richer and more abundant graces than formerly upon the sou is of the faithful, so that without human intervention He teaches and guides them by some hidden instinct of His own. Tet it is the sbra of no small over-coandence to desire to meas ure and, determine the mode of the divine communication to mankind; it wholly de pends uon His own good lasure and He Is a most generous dispenser of His ovnx gifts. The spirit breathes whereso He listeth John :S. To each of us grace Zs given according to the measure of the giv I lag oi Christ, Sphesfaas 4:7. "And shall anyone who recalls the ais i tory of the apostlfs, the faith of the n&s cent church, the trials aaa deaths of the martrs and, above all. those olden times, eo fruitful in saints dare to measure oar age w.th these, osr afflrai that xney re ceived ao less of the diir.e outpouring from the spirit of holiness "Xot to dwell upon this point, there Is i no one who calto in quest .on the truth that the Holy Spirit does work by a secret descent Into the eoels of the Just, and that He stirs them alike by warnings and impulses. lnee unless this were the cee all outward defense and authority wo-j d be unavad-ng. 'For If any persuades him self th-.: he can gfe assent tu ?ving. mat k ti g"spaT tru:h when proclaimed. w:thou ,,r 'Uumi-.at. r of the HIy Spirit, wr g i-r.-D etne both to acccp i i t -s-' one is de ceived by an heret cal sp rf Fr,m the ."d council of Orar.e. canon T. J Beware of Imitations I JOHN CUNCAVS SONS, AatKTt, NFW YCR. fi "Moreover, as experience shows, these monitions and impulses of the Holy Spirit are for the most part felt through tho medium of the aid and lteht of an ex ternal teaching authority. To quote St. Augustine: 'He (the Holy Spirit) co operates to the fruit gathered from the good trees, since He externally waters and cultivates them by the outward ministry of men, and yot of himself bestows the inward increase.' Do Gratia Chrlstl, chap ter xix. This, Indeed, belongs to the or dinary law of God's loving pssidence, that as he has decreed that men for the most part shall be saved by the ministry also of men. so has He wished that those whom He calls to the higher planes of holiness should be led thereto by men; hence St. Chrysostom declares we are taught of God through the Instrumentality of men.' Homily 1. In Inscribaltar. "Of this a striking example is given us in the very first days of the church. For though Saul, intent upon blood and slaugh ter, had heard the voice of our Lord himself, and had asked. 'TVhat dost thou wish me to do?' yet was he. bidden to enter Damascus and search for Ananias. Acts. 9 'Enter "tho city and it shall be there told to thee what thou must do.' Nor can we leave out of consideration the truth that those who are striving after perfection, since by that fact they walk in no beaten or well-known path, are the most liable to stray, and hence have greater need than others of a teacher and guide. Such guidance has ever obtained in the church; it has been the universal teaching of those who through the aces, have been eminent for wisdom and sanc tityand hence to reject it would be to commit oneself to a belief at once rash and dangerous. "A thorough consideration of this point, in the supposition that no exterior guide is granted such souls, will make us see the difficulty of locating or determining the direction and application of that more abundant Influx of the Holy Spirit, so greatly extolled by innovators. To prac tice virtue there is absolute need of the assistance of -the Holy Spirit, yet we find those who are fond of novelty, giving an unwarranted importance to the natural virtues, as though they batter responded to tho customs and necessities of the time, and that, having these as his outfit, man becomes both more ready to act and more strenuous in action. It is not easy to un derstand how persons possessed of Chris tian wisdom can either prefer natural to supernatural views or attribute to them, a greater efficacy and fruitfulness. Can it bo that nature conjoined with grace is weaker than when left to herself? Can it be that those men illustrious for sanctity, whom the church distinguishes and openly pays homage to, were deficient came short in the order of nature and its endowments because they excelled in Chribtian strength? And although it be allowed at times to wonder at acts worthy of admir ation which are the outcome of natural virtue, is thero anyone at all endowed simply with an outfit of natural virtue? Is there anyone not tried by mental anxiety, and this in no light degree? Tet ever to master such, as also to preserve It in its entirety, the law of the natural order re quires an assistance from on high. These single notable acts to -which we have al luded will frequently upon a close investi gation be found to exhibit the appearance rather than the reality of virtue. Grant that it is virtue, unless we would 'run in vain' and be unmindful of that eternal blis which a good God in His mercy has destined for us, of what avail are natural virtues unless seconded by the gift of Divine grace? Hence St. Augustine we'.l says: 'Wonderful is the strength, and swift the course, but outside the true path. For as the nature of man, owing to the primal fault. Is inclined to evil and dis honor, yet by tho help of grace is raised up. is borne along with a new greatness and strength, so, too, virtue, which is not the product of nature alone, but of grace also, is made fruitful unto everlasting life and takes on a more strong and abiding character. This over-esteem of natural virtue finds a method of expression In as suming to divide all virtues into 'active' and 'passive,' and It is alleged that, where as passive virtue found better place in past times, our ago Is to be characterized by the active. That suph a division and distinc tion cannot be maintained is patent for there is not, or can there be, merely pas sive virtue. 'Virtue,' says St. Thomas Aquinas, 'designates the perfection of somo i faculty, but tho end of such faculty is an act. and an act of virtue is naught else than the good use of free will' acting, that is to say, under the grace of God if the act be one of supernatural virtue. He alone could wish that some Ohristlon virtues be adapted to certain times and different ones for other times who Is un mindful of the apostle'3 words: 'That those whom He fore knew. He predestined to be made conformable to the Image of His Son.' Romans S:l9. Christ is the teacher and the example of all sanctity. and to His standard must aH those con form who wish for eternal life. Nor does Christ know any change as the ages pass, for He le yesterday and today and the same for evw.' Hebrews U:S. To the men of all ages was the precept given: 'eLarn of rae. because I am meek and humble of heart.' Matt. 4.M. "To every age has He beoa made mani fest to us as obedient even unto death: in every age the apostle's dictum has Its force: 'Thofe who are Christ's have cruci ro their flesh with its vices and concu picences.'

That such a value is gen erally held by the upholders of new views, we infer from certain statements con cerning the vows -which religious orders take. They say vows are alien to the spirit of our times, In that they limit the bounds of human liberty; that they are more suitable to weak than to strong minds; that so far from making for human perfection and the good of human organi zation, they are hurtful to both but that this Is as false as possible from the prac tice and the doctrines of the church Is clear, since she has always given the very highest approval to the religious method of life; not without good cause, for those who under the Divine call have freely em braced that state of life did not content themselves with the observance of pre cepts, but, going forward to the evangelical counsels, showed themselves ready and valiant soldiers of Christ. Shall we judge this to be a characteristic of weak minds, or shall we say that it Is useless or hurtful to a more perfect state of life? Those who bind themselves by the vows I m i....inn .ciifforAr?

And tuts lurtner theirs, namely, that the religious life is either entirely useless or of little sen-ice. to the church, besides being Injurious to the religlouh orders, cannot be the opin r, nf nnvone who has read the annals

of the church. Did not your country, the I United States, derive the beginnings both of faith and of culture from the children of these religious families? To one of whom but very lately, a thing greatly to your praise, you have decreed that a statue be publicly erected. And even at ihn nresent time, wherever the religious families are found, how speedy and yet how fruitful a harvest of good works do they not bring forth. How er man leave home and seek strange lands to im- part the truth of the gospel and to widen the bolnds of civilization, and this they do with the greatest cheerfulness amid rt..t v,a.. nnmhAi- nnt manuom aan5e. u v. ijc in.lped. than from tho rest of the clergy, the Christian world finds tne preachers of God's word, the directors oC consciences, the teachers of youth and tho church itself the examples of all sanctity. Nor should any difference of praise be made Between those who follow the active state of Hfo from those others who, charmed with solitude, give themselves to prayer and bodily mortification. And how much, indeed, of good report these have merited, and do merit, is known surely to all who do not forget that 'continual prayer of the just man avails to placate and to bring down the blessings of heaven when to such prayers bodily mortification is added. "But if there be those who prefer to form one body without the obligation of the vows, let them pursue Euch a course. It is not new in the church nor in any

But rather. since mankind are more disposed at the Dresent time t6 indulge themselves in pleasures, let those be held In greater ca- tnPTn whr havlnar left all things, have fol- teem 'who, having left all things, have fol lowed Christ.' "Finally, not to delay too long, it is stated that the way and method hitherto in use among Catholics for bringing back those who havo fallen away from the church should be left asiae and another one chosen, in which matter it will suffice to note that it is not the part of prudence to neglect that which antiquity In its long experience has approved and which is also taught "by apostolic authority. The scrip tures teach us that it is the duty of all to be solicitous for the salvation of one's neighbor, according to the power and posi tion of each. The faithful do this by re ligiously discharging the duties of their state of life, by the uprightness of their conduct, by their works of Christian char ity and by earnest and continuous prayer to God. On tho other hand, those who belong -to the clergy should do this by an enlightened fulfillment of their ministry, by the pomp and splendor of ceremonies, especially by setting forth that sound form of doctrine which St. Paul Inculcated upon Titus and Timothy. But if, among the different ways of preaching the word of God, that one sometimes sees to be prefer able which is directed to non-Catholics, not in churches, but In some suitable place. In such wise that controversy is not sought but friendly conference, such a mothod is certainly without fault. But let those who undertake such ministry be set apart by the authority of the bishops and let them be men whose science and virtue has been previously ascertained. For we think that there are many In your country who j are separated from Catholic truth rathei by ignorance than by ill will, who might perchance more easily be drawn to the one fold of Christ If this truth be set forth to them in a friendly and famHlar way. "From the foregoing it Is manifest, be loved son, that we are not able to give ap proval to those views which. In their col lective sense, are called by some 'Ameri canism,' but if by this name are to be understood certain endowments of mind which belong to the America people, just as other characteristics belong to various other nations, and if, moreover, by It Is designated your political condition and the j laws and customs by which you are gov- erned. there 13 no reason to take execs- tion to the name. But if this is to be so understood that the doctrines which haTe been adverted to above are not only In dicated .but exalted, there can be no man ner of doubt that our venerable brethren, the bishops of America, would bo tha first to repudiate and condemn it as being meat Injurious to themselves and to their coun try. For it would give rise to the suspi cion tha: there are among you some who conceive and would have tae emweh In America to be different from what it is la the rest of the world.

AN EXCHANGE OF BEEVES. A farmer sent some "fat" steers to mar ket.

The lean steers the dealer bought for the farmer cost J4.00 a hundred. When they were sent home the ruralit found among th lean lot three of the very same alleged fat animals he had just sold at $3.75 a hundred.

Crowds of people anxious to witness the funeral procession which was to bear the remains of the late presi dent Felix Faure from the Eiysee palace, where they have been lying In state since kvihov last hpzan to assemble at an early hour today along the line of the route to be followed from the palace to Notre Dame j cathedral. Some of the people took up nosltions as early as midnight and by 9, o'clock dene multitudes had sathered alon- the Champs Elysees and the Place de la Concorde. PThey massed themselves on benches, behind hedges of dragoons v.xiicii uueu. i"c i t-. 1 The members of the chamber of deputies, headed by the president of the house, M. j Deschanel. arrived at the Eiysee palace at n.

All the officers of the military household took part in the cereionv. Madame and Mile. Faure, who had been praying the greater part of the night be side tho remains.attended mass at S o'clock in the chapel of the palace. They then retired to their apartments and did not take part In the procession or ln the funeral ceremonies, though they heard mass at noon in the chapel of the Eiysee. The hearse, drawn by six horses, each led by a footman, entered the courtvard j of the palace at 9 o'clock. It was a mag- j nificent car. with large black plumes and having a dome decorated with silver stars. The hangings, which were of sable velvet, bore on them escutcheons with the late President Faure's Initials ln each corner. The funeral car was Iaso hung with the tri-color of France, covered with creno. The walls of the courtyard were hidden by black draperies, relieved bj silver initials "F. F." (Felix Faure) and "R. F." (Re publiquie Francaise) and palm branches. The porches were draped in black, with silver stars and the pediment was deco rated with a cross and Inscribed "Hoaneur et Patrie.'" Before the catafalque were creped cush ions upon which lay the late sresldent's orders and decorations. The casket was placed on the funeral car in the presence of all the high civil and military officials, the procession was formed and it emerged from the palace at l'J:05 a. m., headed by General Zurllnden, the mili tary governor of Paris, followed by the bearers of the wreaths from the lat? presi dent's household and the legislature. Then "present arms" rang out, the band of the Republican cuard selected a funeral march and the funeral car emerged from the palace vjn the Avenue Marigny. on one side of the palace. The minister of foreign affairs, M. Delicasse; the minis ter of public instruction, M. Leigues; the minister of marine, M. Lockroy; the min ister of agriculture, M. Viger; the minister of public works, M. Krantz; the minister of colonies, M. Guillaln, and the minister of finance, M. Pectral, were the nail bearers. Then came six captains. Delo: g lng to regiments forming part of the par rison of Paris, bearing the late president's decorations. Tho membrs of the ta president's family, other than Madame and Madamoseille Faure, all greatly affected, fo'lowed the decorations. Next came President Loubet. accom panied by the acting president of the .'en ate, M. Chaveau; the premier, M 1 utuv, and the president of the chamber if aen uties, M. Deschanel; after thm the of ficers of the late president's miiltarv household, the naoal nuncio, the members of the diplomatic corps and foreign -ninis- ters. The Germans made a striking ap w i .-.o pearance. evidently having been chosen for their fine physique, for they were all a head taller than the members of any o.. the other missioas. The members of the Russian mission were loudly cheered. Following the foreign missions came the members of the senate and chamber of deputies and other delegations, from the army and navy, etc., council of state, the judges of the courts of cassation and ap peal, and deputations from other public bodies. The procession was preceded by detachments of cavalry. Infantry, marines, and cadets from the school of St. Cyr. and the Polytechnic while strong bodies of troops were Interspersed throughout the funeral cortege. The whole route was lined with troops of ail arms and was alo guarded oy police. t The procession proceeded slowly towa-d the cathedral, the crowds reverently stana- j tag with bared heads as it passed.

"The power to fine and imprison for con tempt is essentially a judicial one, and an attempt to confer it upon a state board of tax commissioners who have pomer to take testimony is a violation of the constitu tion Langenberg vs. Decker, 16 L. R. A.. 106. "I have found but one authority in con flict with this proposition, and that case held that the power to punish a witness for refusal to testify was an administrative duty and might be exercised by anyone authorized to hear evidence. While this case contains some very philosophical and lorfcal reasoning, it is unsupported by the Mwrr nr text writers. .ww a 1 If the action taken by the council nao t.. .1... iiintK'A hrtnv or a been taken by the legislative body of a state, and the constitution of sucn state did not expressly or by implication with hold from such body the power to -3'-h for contempt, there would be found ample authority to sustain the action of the coun cil. But. by reason of the marked dis tinction betwe-n the powers and authority of a state legislature ana mai ul u. torlaJ legj3lature. the adjudicated cases of h, he3t resort ta the M ln determining this question. In a state the people are sovereign. AH power is vested ln and derived from the people. Through their constitution they delegate and distribute these pomers. a constitution is not a grant of power so far as relates to the legislative department, but is a limitation. All power not ex pressly delegated to some other branch or department is vested in the legislative branch. The legislature is the representa tion of the people, clothed with all their sovereign power of every character, which has not by he constitution been lodsed elsewhere. The legislative, executive, ju dicial and administrative power is inherent in the people, and remains In them unless delegated by their constitution. If the constitution does not divest them of all Judicial power the resldum is in the legis lative assembly, and may in proper cases be exercised by such body. Hence, it may well be said by the state courts that the state legislatures have inherent power to punhh for contempt, as all power is lodged in the legislature unless expressly imposed on some other branch of government. But in a territory the situation is materially different. Such a government is not a government of the people founded upon the consent of the governed. There is no so--ereignty in the territorial government or in anv of its branches; each department may bo supreme in its domain, yet not sover eign. The inherent powers belonging to I and vested in the people by reason of thel sovereignty Is suspended and held in abey ance until such time as they shall dis tribute and delegate It through a constitu tion of their own formation and adootion and become a state. The legislative de partment of a territory Is clothed with none of the Inherent powers of the peoDle. It has not, and In the very nature of its formation and creation, crfn have no In herent powers. The territorial eovern ment Is but a subordinate dependency of the federal government, subject to its pow er and control and subservient to its laws and constitutional limitations. No powers are derived from the people, but such as it possesses arc derived from the congres sional grant. Its several departments can exercise only such powers as congress has delegated. The right to govern the terri tory Is vested ln congress by the federal constitution. The fMeral constitution Is a grant of power with umerous limitations, onngress can confer no power that it does not possess. There is no Inherent power in congress, hence can be none in the governmental bodies created by It- Con gress is the source of all power In a terri tory- The people of a territory have no voice In the creation of their government, but congress Imposes the government on them, and bestows upon them such privi leges and confers such powers tis to con gre5 seem expedient. The territorial gov ernment bears a similar relation to the federal government that a city govern ment does to a state government. The organic act creating a territory is to Its people their constitution, adopted for them by representatives in whose selection thy have no voice, and for whose conduct they are not responsible. This imposed govern ment under an imposed organic law bears no resemblance, ln its powers or functions. to a state government. With these dis tinction." in view, we must grasp first prln ciples and reason out our status and har monize our powers and functions under the limitations imposed. "In the early history of our state and feleral governments legislative bodies and courts were inclined to follow the rules and practices that had prevailed in the mother country, and from Which we borrowM many of our laws and customs. The British parliament was originally a high court of judicature and had Jurisdic tion to try causes as wH as enact laws. It was restricted hy no limltaUoas or In hibitions and exercised all the power ex cept that vested In the crown. After wards, when parliament was made to consist of two branches, the house of commons and the bouse of lord. It was held that each house carried wltfc K the judicial functions of fibe origin ?J parlia ment, and thai each bouse constituted a court for the trial of such matters as might bo entrusted to H or was nocee sary o its own dignity and purposes. The courts of England held that these bodies, by virtue of this inherited power was authorized to punifth for contempt. i and our courts in this country at an eariy l day adopted the same rule. One f the early cm to come before the supreme curt of the United Stat was the ce i of Anderson vs. Dunn, 8 Waeaion, 24. 1 In tJus cade the court held that the power to punish for contempt was a aoe- j seery power to the rood order and pres ervation of the rights of eongrei and i..' it was an knpHed power and could b awfully exerctaed.

Mr. Justice Miller delivered the opinion for the court, and it -wad there held that the reasoning in the case of Anderson, vs. Dunn was not sound ad it -was over-ruled and rejected. The court further held that neither house of con gress was constituted a part of any court of general jurisdiction, nor has it any history to which ttie exercise of such power can be traced. That its power must he sought alone in eame express grant in the constitution, or be found nec essary to carry into effect such powers as rae granted. It was also held that by the constitution each houe of congress has certain function to perform which are in their nature judicial, as determm ing the qualification and election of Us own members, impeachment of officers, expulsion of members, and other powers expressly granted tn the exercise of which witnesses may be subpoenaed, tes timony taken, and witnesses punished for contempt; but it is expressly held that ronETPSs nu iv i- j.-v.-.w granted or necessarily incident to such express grant. In this case, it is also said by Justice Miller that the colonial legislatures did not possess the power to punish for con tempts, as did the houses of parliament. and that the court of privy council hai held that it was not a right given by the common law and was not a general power of legislative -bodies. "If Justice Miller te correct in his vV-ws deduced from the English authorities that the power to pualfh for contempt legislative bod'es Is no part of the com- rnon law. but was a power peculiar to ue houes of parliament by reason of their judicial functions, then some of our state courts have fallen into error, and notab'y the court of api-eals of Missouri in hold ing that such power Is derived from the eomniJD luw. The colonial leglslatu-es bear a similar r-iatlon to the British gor. eminent that our ti:itorial government does to the federal government, and :f these legislative ;bod!es do not possess the power to punish for contempt by virtue of any Inherent powers, or as derived from common or parliamentary law. hen suroiy we do not get from the common law that which the common law never recognized. "In the Chapman case. 16o U. S. 6fl. there is nothing in conflict with the ru'lng in the Kilbourn case. Chapman was in dicted in the supreme court of the Dis trict of Columbia for refusing to anwer questions before a special committee of the house of representatives appointed to investigate charges of improper conduct of some of its members. He appliel 10 the supreme court of the United States for a writ of habeas corpus. Tha cour held the statute valid which milo it a criminal offense to refuee to testify be fore a committee of congress when acting within the scope of Its power, lie powr of congress to punldh for contempts wss whJJo Ju5tJce Fu, ler said in the opinion in this case: 'We grant that congress coukl not divest it self or either of its houses of tho essen tial and Inherent power to punish for con tempts.' he Hmlted this power to 4caa:.$ In which the power of either huae prop erly extended." We may well anuria that he meant the cases enumerated in t. constitution, and referred to oy Justice Miller in the Kilbourn case. "A review of the authorities citeJ and relied upon to sustain the power of the legislative conncH to punish for contempt conclusion: That the JeadV me to this weight of authority Is to the effect that no such authority rests in a iUta legisla ture unless it is exprewrty granted by ths constitution of the state, or that the atate constitution imposes some JudHal power In he legis'ature and the powee- to powi.i for contempt is one incident to the exer cise of some judicial power. The acta of she British parliament in punishing contempts were not by virtue of iji egts.at.V functions, ut by reason of the udfcial power with which it wa clothed. So when congress is cxercisin? some Judicial function it may punih for contempt?, tut no such power has been exercised since the decision in the Kil bourn ca, whea congress was cngase.l j In purely legislative duMes.

Governor Stanley is sticking: very close to the enuncia tions of the platform upon -which he was elected and to the lines he laid down as his policy. The senate having thought !etter of it, has -withdrawn all show of opposition and is heartily and unanimously confirming; his appointments. There -will be no more scandals connected witGi the admin istration of the state charitable institutions. His letter of Instructions -to the ne-w board of control throwing all respon sibility upon Ihe shoulders of the members and demanding honesty and efficiency meets with the hearty approval of the people, certainly of the press of the state, as does his demand that incompetent and dissolute officials be summar ily dismissed, and as also his suggestion taat veterans of the civil war be given the preference for the place and positions in these institution. There have been few, if any, criticisms of his appointments, which have been of the best material offering or obtainable from the respective sections of the s ate. "Whatever else may happen or come to pass, the state is to have a clean, competent and economical administration of its affairs. If there Is to be any extravagance tfoe legisla ture and not the executive will be responsible. chance for himself and men to visit the exposition at Paris. At the end of the last war Farragut was accordetTthe honor of commanding an American squadron in a round of the European ports. Dewey is entitled to as much, for Dewey seems as much of an old sea-dog as the bluff old &ero of Mobile and of New Orleans. That Dewey intends to stick to salt water is Indicated by the late announcement -that he has purchased a small island off the New England coast where after retirement he will probably spend his summers. Not the Whole Thing. Aguinaldo is not the whole thing in the Philippines, not even In Luzon. Aguinaldo was paid JSOO.OOO in Spanish silver in 1S97, and given safe conduct with his- treasure to Hong Kong, for which he signed am agreement to lay down his arms and stay away from the island of Luzon. But there are other islands and other governments in tSie archipelago. There are nabobs, potentates, sultans and what not heads and rulers of the other twelve or fourteen hundred Islands. Too much attention has been given to this pig-eyed sneak who sold himself, his country and his army to Spain for money. Even were he absolute dictator to the Tagals, Tagal Influence is unknown outside of Luzon. And now Dewey Is dispatch ing vessels to the different islands up and down the group to notify the various nabobs and potentates what has hap pened to them In the way of a change of sovereignty. There is the sultan of the Sulus and the other rulers in the South China sea, who care nothing for Aguinaldo, even if they ever heard of him. To these a friendly visit is to be made by Dewey's ships. Of course the sultan of the Sulus and the other minor potentates of the one thousand and one islands of the archipelago may be delighted to hear that there are benighted persons In the United States who believe that ihey should bend the knee and salaam before the little Tagal dictator when he arrays himself in his gold collar and blows his little whistle, but nevertheless it is not a bad idea to learn what they think of it. The wildest of annexationists cannot deny the right of the sultan of the Sulus -and of the myriad of minor nabobs and potentates to a voice in declar ing whether the rule of Aguinaldo L is satisfactory to them. That Kansas Editorial Excursion. The Eag'Ie indulged in some original observations the other day, which if short on courtesy did not lack in direct ness, touching the so-called Kansas editorial annual con vention and its annual acceptance of an invitation to become the guests of the Kansas City, Missouri, Commercial club. While the writer knows better, the average reader probably does not know but that these editorial excursions are com posed of the real editorial writers of the state. That is never the case. "We never participated in an editorial ex cursion that one-half to three-fourths of the crowd was not made up of interlopers and hangers-on who as sisters, cousins and sweethearts of some print shop, or as local con tributors or employes of some sheet otherwise unknown outside of its home township, had managed to worm them selves in as editors, de facto, of the papers whose card and pass they presented as occasion demanded. "We were not certain but that we had been a little harsh in our criticisms of the Kansas City, Missouri, Kansas Editorial association excursion until we had read the views of the editor of the Laurence Journal, touching the same subject, the said editor being not only an able writer but a level-headed man. The Journal of yesterday, speaking of the aggregation which sailed through Its jown, soys: "The Kaswsas 'editors' are off on a junketing trip today at the expense of Kansas City. There were more than two hundred in the crowd, and unless things have changed won derfully, about one in ten is a sure-enough editor. The others are hangers-on, men, and women who make up in gall what Oney lack in brains, and -who dead-beat their way on the reputation of some man who is home earning an honest L Ing It is a shame to the state and to the editors of Kansas that such things are allowed. Kansas City kindly invited the Kansas editors down to be the city's guests; to do what was an act of courtesy that should have been treated at least with honesty Kansas City did next extend an invita tu.n to every Tom, Dick and EUzabeth in the state. But by s me hook or crook, known to themse'ves. a great many pnle of that kind always hang on Then they once grab if the Toms, Dicks and Elisabeths got their feet into it, and lnld. PosslWy the present junketing trip is not so bad as some others have bee: it is to be hoped that ft is nDt. but from the fact that about two hundred and fifty tickets were asked for It is apparent that the real editors are in the ory small minority. The cure for the evil is in the hands cf the newspapers. They should see to it that hospltalitv of i .ty or railroad is not imposed upon, and that when invtta i.n.3 are sent for an entertainment they do not mean that they can turn them over to some one who doesn't know an editorial dash from the Golden Rule. it is time a halt should be called if the real editors of the state hope to main the respect of the people who would be their hosts."

Dewey Wants to Come Home for Awhile. It is said that Admiral Deey desires to come home, at least for a season.; that he wants to get away from the per Fistent heat of that enervating clime. But it is said again that his duties as a member of the Philippine commission twH keep him right where he is for at least a year and maybe longer, as the commission is charged with the duty of investigating everything connected with fche social, indus trial, material and political interests of the Philippines. The one heroic and conspicuous figure connected with the late wsr with Spain is Dewey, and his countrymen sympathise wnh him in his desire for at least a furlough. According tD the etiquette of the navy, he is entitled to the honor of commanding an American squadron in Europe, to make she rounds of all the great naval stations and port wkh his victorious fleet. This would give ail the officers and men who fought with htm a good time. That Europe would hail him with pleasure and take great interest in the modem vessels of war wioh composed Ms victorious squadron, theer is no doubt If he can be spared from th PacWc, hi fleet might be ordered to some French port twxt year with a Burning and Bushwhacking. Having bought Manila and its surroundings for the not Inconsiderable sum of twenty millions of dollars, it is not a little discouraging that the people for whom the invest ment ostensibly is made should turn about and burn up the most valuable portion of the purchase. These burning and bushwhacking demonstrations upon-the part of the Filipinos must cease. Aguinaldo's army seems to be mad up of Piutes and Apaches. They do their shooting from ambush only, and crawl upon their bellies in the dark long distances for the chance of knifing American soldiers while on duty. It is all right to take up the white man's burden, but the blood of the victims of assassination is crying out for revenge. England was compelled under like circumstances in India once to load her cannon with this ldnd. of cattle, who are incapable of appreciating Christian kindness. The world condemned Engird, but a few hundred of these Tagals rammed alive into thirteen-inch guns and hurled two thou sand feet per second in the direction of Kie main herds might in preserving the lives of many American soldiers have a wholesome effect upon these mongrel Malayan and Negritic nightmares, "half devil and half child." who evidently do not know enough to be freemen and are too treacherous for slaves. It is just as evident, too, that if left to themselves these mixed races would not be different in a thousand years unless it were in degeneration. There is but one of two things to do: either abandon them or subdue them. 3 Fighting the President. The people of the country generally will deplore the seeming necessity of an extra session of congress. There Is too much congressional and too much state legislation. The United States is the most law-burthened nation on the globe. It is an unending succession of repealing old laws and of enacting new ones. But an extra session of congress this spring seems inevitable. The contrary minority of the senate will not permit the passage of the new army bill, which t!he president says is an absolute necessity. He so notified con gress two weeks ago. The policy which has been forced upon .President Mcivmley's administration by the rapid march and unexpected direction of events demands a larger standing army, without which theer may ensue humiliation and disaster. The volunteers, the president says, must be relieved and brought home and discharged at the earliest moment. It is not fair to the citizen volunteer to keep him under arms away from home a minute longer than per manent peace is declared. "While a larger standing army is a necessity in the emergency, one-holf of the men or more of the soldiers who are desired for service in the "West Indies and in 'the Philippines should be natives of those islands respectively. The American boy cannot stand the stress of a tropical climate. The next congress will have a senate whose majority thinks and believes with the president, and there will be no question as to what it will do. But the present senate in knowing this should be patriotic enough to pass the pending bill. It is partisanship not patriotism which is blocking the way of the Hull-Hawley army reor ganization bill. Philadelphia's Wonderful Edifice. Although many scandals grew out of the construction of Philadelphia's new City hall, the Quaker City boasts that it is the largest building in America, not excepting the Capitol at Washington, being 4SG feet in lengih north and south, and 470 feet in width east and west, covering an area of four and a half acres exclusive of a courtyard in the center 400 feet square. Around the whole is a grand avenue 203 feet wide on the northern front and 135 feet -nide on the others. It contains 520 rooms besides the offices of the city govemment. Surmounting the structure is a central tower which rises to an altitude of 537 feet, and terminates in a colossal statue of "William Penn, which is 36 feet in height. "Pencils," Annexation and Expansion. "Take up the white mans' burden,' The combines and the trusts; Ye will or -whisper, devils, Your coal oil best breeds lusts. Hell's a hot promoter, hottest For capitalized monopolist, A cinch that strains nor "busts." The Orleans family is headed by a rake. The Bonaparte family by a young man who has worked himself forward in the Russian army. If Franoe has to quit the republic busi ness she should tie up to the Bonapartes. O Miles has scored one point The American meat exports are diminishing and the packers are howling. Miles could toardly wish more, unless it was that somebody would catch Eagan and embalm him. The shabby little crippled seamstress who lived on the top floor of the back tenement at East Seventeenth street did not look likek a heroine at a romance. But for all that she was one. When ''-'Pexfcils," the blind man who stood patiently through heat and 6now and rain at the foot of the Third Avenue "L" steps, though of her-ggoodness and kindness to him the heart under his old faded, patched coat beat like a trip ham mer. "Pencils" was wont to beguile the time between trains by thinking of his ro mance. It helped him to bear the broil ing heat, the nipping cold, or the pelting rain. The people -who hurried past him never so much as dreamed that the blind pauper standing there, timidly proffering his wares, knew what the world meant. But "Pencils" never wearied of thinking of the little woman who had made for him the only gleam of sunshine he had ever known. "Pencils" was at one time an inmate of a blind asylum, the adjunct of a fashion able up-town church. There were mil lions back of it, and stewed prunes for supper. When "Pencils," weary and sick of stewed prunes, asked for fresh app.e sauce, there was chaos and consternation in the institution. Co such revolt has been on record since Oliver Twist asked for more. The end of it was that "Pencils" was cast forth and told to shift for himself. There was a little crippled seamstress sewing in the linen-room a homely, shabby little creature, industrious and ret icent. The story drifted up to the linen room, and when "Pencils" was slowly tap ping his way down tho steps of the asy lum for the last time and vaguely won dering what was to become of htm some one pulled his sleeev. slipped a bill in his hand, and whispered an address and name to him. "Go there," said the voice. "They are friends of mine and they will be kind to you." It was the little seamstress. "Pencils" obeyed her Instructions, and the wretched Tenement to which he -was directed open ed its doors to him with that beautiful hospitality only to be found among the poor. "When folks who could scarcely scrape pennies together to buy food heard "Pen cils! story, they chipped in and set the blind man up in business. And when they passed him, at the foot of the "L" stairs they thrust their hands deeper in their empty pockets and assumed the airs of promoters. "Pencils" lived In a miserable back hole of a room and made shift for himself as best he could until that glorious day when a homely, Bhabby little cripple came down to the tetfSment, and, asking for his room, went In, built a fire In the ram shackle stove, and. filling a brand new kettle she had bought, had It soon singing on the fire. Several ladies of the section came in to abk if the morals of the tenement were to suffer. But the little seamstress with simplicity and dignity told them who she was, that she had known and loved "Pen cils" at tha asylum, and that she had come to marry mm anu taKo care or him. When "Pencils" came tap-tapping to his poor home that night, expecting a cold supper, he was met at the door by motherly, outstretched hands. He was dried at a gglowing fire, and a cup of fragrant tea was handed him. And while, dazed and happy, he sipped the comfort ing drink,, the little shabby woman out lines her plan. "Pencils" had no objection to being mar ried and cared for. On tha contrary, the idea quito appealed to him. Jt was soon arranged. And now dawned poor, blind "Pencils' golden dajs. The little cripple nobly ful filled her mission. The sewing she did late into tho night brought in the money to make them quite comfortable. "Pen cils" did not retire from business, but was never permitted to overwork. When he started for his post his faithful little wife accompanied him to the street, saw him safely started, and then went 'back to her eternal stitching. "Pencils," who had' been repeatedly warned not to venture Into unknown ter ritory, grew rash one day and decided to explore. For two or three blocks he got on well. Then, growing bolder, he at tempted to cross the crowded thorough fare .just in front of a flying trolley. There were shouts of warning and the alarming clang of a "bell. Crowds ran to gether, yelling and cursing. Two police men dragged out a huddled, shapeless mass. i"oor "Jenciis was crusneu to death. The little crippled seamstress sewed on alone for a few days. But the Incentive for work was gone. She grew more and more reticent. She kept her door locked and was often heard talking to herself. "She's not right," was the verdict of tho tenement. Every one tried to be kind to her, but she shrank more and more within herself. One morning Mrs. Duffy, the good-natured scrubwoman on tho third floor, climbed the rickety stairs and knocked softly at the door of tha little seam stress. She found her neighbor lying dead up on her bed. The poor, lonely little face was transfigured into a semblance of boauty by a mlle of peace and happiness. She had followed "Pencils" out into that land of mystery to take care of him. New York World. -O- Ouilines of Oklahoma, Judge Burford, at any rate, is a light ning writer. The Enid Wave, among others, has thrown a club at the Havens statehood bill. Charlie Hunter was elected captain of tha new organization of Rough Riders of Oklahoma. The dues of the new Rough Riders' post are only 20 cents a year. That was a very sensible beginning. Frank Greer has taken up the location of territorial institutions and is working for it heart and soul. Judge Burford has cut his waltz out on the floor arid retired, and the investiga tion should now proceed. In the new location deal Guthrie is 1o gat the capitol, Enid the insane asylum, and El Reno the penitentiary. By a trick known to himself a traveler walked into the slot machines in Enll the other night and emptied them. A negro attorney called a white wit ness a liar in the police court of Enid the other day and a free-for-all fight en sued. The Rock Island will prooably bu'ld on to Mangum. Oklahoma people will then be able to reach mountain scenery in a half-day. Hugh McCredie of the council wants hypnotism prohibited in Oklahoma. Near ly all the western states are passing bills of this kind. Charley Hunter, who has returned to Enid from Guthrie, expresses himself as confident that the territorial institutions will be located. President Ament, of the Alva Normal, Is lobbying for the location of the ter ritorial institutions. He might better have stayed at home. P D. Foley, a prominent citizen of Payne county, picked up his gun. stepped out doors the other day, and hasn't been seen since. He Is a stone-mason. Biddison was the man who cracked the harmony caucus on the head. Biddison has built up a reputation as a fighter. He should look later to his discretion. Sid Clarke has been in a good many leg islatures in his time, but he has never had so much fun with the majority against him as he has had this time. Hopkins has been released. Will the committee go to his office to examine vouchers, or drop the investigation? That is the big question In Oklahoma now. The legislature Is junketing too much, but it probably doesn't care if it is. It will now take a trip to Weniaer ford. Merten has Introduced a bin in the leg islature providing that only territorial taxes be collected from reservations In- ciuuea in uKianoma oniy xor judicial pur poses. Warren Curtlss, a prominent young man of Abilene, started In to make his wav In the world. He went to work on the Anadarko extension of the Rock Island, took pneumonia and died. There is no harmony to be gotten out of the Republican factions in Oklahoma, and there will be none so lorn? as part of Its officers are elective and the rest fed eral oppointees. For the same reason there has never been harmony among the Democrats. F. IT. Shelley of Oklahoma has been elected president of the Modern Wood men of Oklahoma, M. A. Pryor of Okla homa City, secretary, and Rev. T. IT. Har per of Newklrk treasurer. The Okla homa Woodmen will ask the head camp to include Oklahoma In the Jurisdiction of the grand lodge. A special to the Chicago Record from Washington says: "Secretary Hitchcock took charge of the interior department to day and Mr. Bliss introduced the heads of bureaus and chiefs of divisions -with complimentary Indorsements. The de parture of Mr. Bliss Is a matter of unu sual regret. The under officials of the department have become very much at tached to him, for none of his predeces sors have been more considerate, generous and appreciate e, and none left a higher he. Ho practically recognized the Inte- rlor department on business principles, giving his entire condflence- to his subor- dinates, holding each man responsible for j the proper performance of his duties, and showing his appreciation In an unmistak able manner when they have been well done. Mr. Hitchcock, the new secretary, i looks moro like a literary man than a merchant. He has a fine face, delicate features, and a very pleasant manner.

Two large fires broke out vesierdav noraiasr and considerable damage by fire and water was done in both instances. In the feed mill of Ira F. Elliott the damage was claimed to be very near 51,300, and the building- was nearly total loss. In the case of the are at the residence of "W P. Homan, at 499 East Central, a nre aroke out about 10 o'clock In the morningr, causing an estimated Iocs of $1,000 to the i jrniture and contents, and a similar dans age from water to the contents of the ad ..j.ainjj house, which also caught nre in tne attic from the conflagration in the roof of the building: at 409 East Central. The first alarm was sounded at S a. m., end the department was promptly at the scene, in the 500 block on the south side of Douglas avenue, where the old Central i ed mill, a few doore from the corner of Emporia avenue, was 'threatened with tota: obstruction, caused by a nre which had its cgln in the noor insulation of electric Ervice wires, which furnished the current for the running of a dynamo in the mill. The fire was caused by the wire coming in contact with the woodwork through wnich passed in the front part of the building, ar i In a short time the old mill buildinr, which was one of the oldest landmarks in zs city, was a total wreck, so far as its usefulness was concerned, without almost rebuilding. Shortly after the department had got id.zk. to their several quarters and the apparatus naa been placed in shape for another call, the alarm sounded and they were again called out to respond to the aarm sent in from the vicinity of Topeka and "Central avenues, where a fire had started in the big double brick building o cupied as a residence by W. P. Homan a-d D. A. Garst with their families. The l-'e was first dis'-overed by Mrs. Homan, 2-d an alarm was promptly sent to the department, who were toot a few moments .r. rspondinff. The tire was mostly confined to the roof, sit. evidently started in the roof of the v-jse at 409 East Central and eat through the next building, both of which are -illt under one roof and only divided in Te centers, having two separate en trances. The nre evidently started from a collection of material which come from soft coals and congregate in the recesses under the eaves of a roof, and a sn&rk I-Dm a neighboring chimney has in all jrooabllity set the inflammable material ai-e. The loss estimated at the residence of P. Homan was given as Sljm and the Ius in the residence of D. A. Garst. which is mostly from water, is estimated between j0 and $1,000. LIFE SAYED BY SWAMP-ROOT Tbe Great DisGOYery That Cures Kidney and Bladder Troubles. Statistics prove that more people are brought to the grave by diseases of the kidneys and bladder than by any other dis ease. For many years medical science has been trying to discover some remedy that would positively overcome these dangerous troubles. But not until recently was the discovery made. IoctoT Kilmer, the eminent physi cian and scientist, after years of study and research, and after tebt on test that never varied in the grand result, announced the discovery of Swamp-Root, which has proven itself a most wonderful cure for ail diseases of the kidneys and bladder. "While Swamp-Root has proven such a remerkab'e success in curing kidney and bladder diseases, it has also proved equally invaluable in the cure of blood diseases, rheumatism, liver and stomacn troubles and in the regulation and cure of all uric acid troubles. Swamp-Root has been tested in so many ways. In hospital work, in private practice, among the helpless too poor to purchase relief, and has proved so successful in every case that a special arrangement has been made by which ail readers of the Eagle, who have not already tried it. may have a sample bottle sent absolutely free by mail. Also a book telling more about Swamp-Root and containing some of the thousands upon thousands of testimonial letters received from men and women who owe theh- good health. In fact, their very lives, to the wonderful curative properties of Swamp-Root. Be sure and mention the Wichita Daily B&gie when sending your address to Dr. Kilmer Co., Biagham ton, N. Y. This great modern discovery Is for sale at most drug stores In fifty-cent and one dollar sizes. OES AFTER Fitzsimmons Is Now Arrested In Perry, 0. T. SHERIFF THINKS IT IS HIM Telegrams Bear Out the Des cription of Murderer. bound over to the district court in the sum. of $309. He could not fimlsh bond and was taken to jail to await trial. Toung Williamson, if convicted, will probably be sent to the reform school, as he Is only 15 years of age, and tnis la said to be his first offense. Sheriff Simmons has rad more telegrams from different sources relative to the es caped murderer Fitz Simmons than any of the other criminals who escaped from the Sedgwick county jail last month. Last night he received the fourteenth telegram stating that Fitz Simmons "was in tne j hands of police authorities and a dedcrip- i tion was sent to the sheriff tallying with the escaped negro. There is little doubt in the mind of the sheriff but that Fitz is somewhere In existence, but he has little J hope of catching him in dose proximity I to Wichita, knowing that the criminal had many resources to resort to to get j a long distance from this c ty. Fitz Sim- j rnons was once a sleeping car porter and had traveled all over the country, was j acquainted with the was of the wor'd and many attaches of tne Pullman service, and with a fifty-year sentence staring him in the face, the sheriff dies not expect to catch the criminal close to Wichita, though he left last night for Perry, O. T In response to the telegram received as he ha many times before gone in all direc tions, making trips to Colorado, illssouri and several points n Kansas, hoping to be rewarded in tne capture of the famous and desperate cnminaL ...of Ojapman rDaiker.

az TOtMiagaitij gale: f? Mag ptatnmrg, f-efananr 24, 1899 6 OF A G Curtis Smith Shoots Tom McClintock in California, BOTH ONCE LIVED HERE History of Their Career and Probable Cause of Tragedy A3 a result of a deep-seated and lons Etandlns grudge, which began in Wichita five years ago. Thomas McClintock, who once lived in this city, was shot and kilted by Curtis E. Smith .also a former resident here. The tragedy occurred at Los Ange les. Cal., where both men resided. The press dispatches state that last Tuesday both men began drinking. -Smith needed money before the spree was over and endeavored to pawn his watch and ring for 75 cents. McClintock loaned Smith the money. After this Smith went awav and armed himself with two revolvers. When he met McClintock again he de manded the watch and ring, which were promptly handed to him. But Smith eeemed bent on trouble, and after receiving his property he shot McClintock in the back of the head, from the effects of which he died soon after. McClintock worked as a motorneer white at Los Anseles and Smith as a cook. Both of the above characters are well known in this city, and their records were anything else but clean. Both names have been on the police books many times, and MoClintock was in his time one of the worst young men about town. It is said that he occasionally pulled the leg of thu unsophisticated. He made his headquar ters about the joints and bad places when the town had many of them. He knew every crook In the country, and notwith standing his bad reputation was of con siderable help in locating criminals who came to this city to ply theL trade. He had a sister who was of the order of the demimonde, and who supported him while here. She is now in Denver. From, a gentleman who was a close fnend of McClintock before he became de praved it was learned that he had re formed sinco ho went to Los Angeles and was leading an upright life, so far as he could learn. Instead of loafing about saloons "and low places he had, as the dis patches stats, secured honorable employ ment with the street car company, and broken away from most all of his bad habits. Curtis Smith Is said to have been about the same kind of a fellow, except that his 'violations of law and order were usually in the way of fighting, drinking and dis turbing the peace generally. He was once janitor of the Zimmerly building and dur ing that time was in the police courts Quite often. Once, it is said, for stealing some clothing. After this he left town for awhile, finally coming back, and was ar rested by tho authorities at Parsons for attempting to work a confidence game there. Ho was taken away, and the news of the tragedy Is the first that has been heard from him since. Smith deserted his wife here and while he was in jail the furniture of her home was sold to satisfy a chattel mortgage for a loan, which ho had made. Mrs. Smith worked as a cigarmaker and was an in dustrious woman. The kind-hearted gen tleman who held the mortgage on her fur niture took it. at her request, and sold it, returning to her the surplus cash realized from tho sale. Charley Smith of this city Is a brother of Curtis. Ho called at the police station this morning to get information of the reported shooting, and from him a reporter for the Eaglo learned of incidents in the lives of the two men which led up to the tragedy of Tuesday at Los Angeles. About five years ago, while Smith was working at the Zimmerly building, he and McClintock had trouble over a woman. The matter became serious and finally Smith administered a terrible beating to McClln tork. After that, it is said, they often came to blows, seeming to have a deep seated grudge against each other. It is said that when Smith left hero and went to St. Joseph McClintock followed him. with the evident intention of doing him harm. Charley Smith thinks that Mc Ctintock's ready willingness to loan his brher money at Los Angeles was for the V irpose of securing the jewelry and keep ing it. as he also thought McClintock still held the old grudge against his brother and was watching his chance to get even. CITY IN BRIEF M. B. Nicholson of Council Grove, was in the city yesterday. C. E. Emmitt of "Wellington, was regis tered at the Carey last night. HEART DISEASE. 50A1E FACTS REGARDING THE RAPID INCREASE OF HEART TROUBLES. Xo "Sot Be Alarmed. Rut Look For the Caimc. Heart troubles, at least a morn: the Americans, are certainly increasing, and v. Mil this may be largely due to the ex citement and worry of American business life, it is more often the result o weak eiomachs. of poor digestion. Real organic disease is incurable; but not one case in a hundred of heart trouble is organic. The clot-e relation between heart trouble ard poor dbrftstion is because both organs are controlled by the sia great nerves the Sympathetic and Pneumogastric. In another way, also, the heart is af fected by the tftorra of poor digestion, which caiuws pas and fermentation from half digested food. There is feeling of oppression and heaviness In the chest caused fcy pressure of the distended stom ach on the heart and hums, interfering with their action; hence arises palpitation and short breath. Poor digestion also potaons the blood, making it thin and watery, which irri ta'es and weakens the heart. The most sensible treatment for heart trouble is to improe the digestion and to insure the prompt assimilation of food. This can be done by he regular use ivfter meals of some safe, pleasant and effective digestive preparation, like Stu art Dyspepsia Tablets, which may be found at most druc stores, and which cmtain valuable, harmless digestive ele ments in a pleasant, convenient form It is safe to say that the regular per sistent ue of Stuart Dyspepsia Tablets at meal time will cure any form of ton e. n trouble except cancer of the stomach. Full sized package of these tablets sold by druggists at cents. Little book on Ftomach troabios mailed fwe. Address V. CMioxt Ca, ataxfthafl. Mich. GRAIN-0 BRiNGS RELIEF to the coffee drinker. Coffee drinking is a habit that is universally indulged in and almost as universally injurious. Have you tried Gram-O? It 1& almost like coffee, but the effects are just the opposite. Cof fee upsets the stomach, ruins the diges tion, affects the heart and disturbs the whole nervous system. Grain-O tones up the stomach, aids digestion and strength ens the nerves. There is nothing but nourishment in Grain-O. It can't be oth erwise. 15 and 25c per package. D. E. O'Malley of Manhattan, was reg istered at the Manhattan yesterday.

FESTIVITIES AT MATANZAS How Gomez andthe;Yankees mixed Up in a tiadrillc. Matanzas, Feb. 22. 5 p. m via Havana, Feb. 23. The evening dance was a most brilliant affair. General Wilson, Mrs. Wil son and General Maximo Gomez received the members of the best society of Ma tanzas. They all passed and shook hands with Generals Gomez and Wilson. Tho theater was beautifully decorated and two military bands furnished the music. Gen erals Breckinridge, Ernst, Chaffee and Humphreys and many other American offi cers were among those present. General Gomez and Mrs. Wilson, and General Wil son and Mrs. Chaffee, danced in a qua drille. General Chaffee and Mrs. Chaffee and Mrs. Chaffoo arrived here on the Hartford and will return to Havana on Thursday. General Chaffee, as chief of Governor General Brooke's staff, will In vite General Gomez to accompany him to Havana on the Hartford. It is very im probable that the Cuban commander will accept. General Gomez leaves here to morrow and will probably go to Marianao and then to Havana. ARE GOOD BRIGAND-CATCHERS Cuban Soldiers sit 3Intnnzn fiivo a (Sample of Their Ability. New York, Feb. 23. A special from Ha vana says: Brigandage is reported from Matanzas province but it met with heroic treatment. A party of seven bandits, al leged to be former Span.sh guarillas, led by a negro guide named Vldal, began the depredations. A squad of Cuban soldiers under Major Arguelles pursued and over took the band near the hamlet of Carta gena, where two of the band.ts were killed and two wounded. The Cubans lost one killed and two wounded. The pursuit was 'continued. The American military author ities are watching these cases with some anxiety but incidents like that at Matan zas satisfy them that the insurgents can be organized into an effective rural police. The Cuban officials are urging that it be dona quickly, as they are positive that, with a part of their troops thus disposed of, the remainder will return to work in the fields if oxen are given to them.

The house of rep resentatives was exercising through its committee the power thus conferred, at the time of the commitment of the peti tioner. The power to enforce the attend ance and testimony of witnesses, and the .production of papers affecting the election of its members 13 indispensable to the efficient exercise of power conferred.' "It is clearly evident that the constitu tion of Ohio clothes the legislature with certain judicial powers, one of which Is the right to try and determine the elec tion and qualification of its own members. In exercising this constitutional power, it has all the powers and functions of a court necessary to a proper discharge of its duties, and n adjudging a witness in contempt and fixing his punishment it does such act by virtue of its judicial power and not by reason of any legislative authority. "Another case cited by counsel for the respondent is People ex rel. McDonald vs. Keeler, sheriff, 99 N. Y. 453. McDonald was held by the sheriff by virtue of a commitment issued by the president and clerk of the senate. A committee of the senate was Investigating a charge of cor ruption against the commissioner of pub lic -works for the city of New York, and McDonald had "been called as a witness and refused to give the Information In quired about by the committee. The sen ate declared him guilty of contempt. The court in deciding the case said there was no declaration in the constitution of the state conferring all the judicial power on the courts; that the constitution express ly gave to the assembly certain judicial powers, among others the power of im peachment, the right to judge of the qual ification and election of its members, the power of removal of certain officers for cause; all of which involved inquiries of a judicial nature. The court held that while the punishment for contempts re quired the exercise of judicial functions, the senate was vested with limited judi cial powers, and that the assembly had the right to make investigations to elicit information -which might be necessary to enable them to enact prepor legislation, and that as an incident to this power was the power to subpoena witnesses, compel their attendance, and punish them for failure to testify. There is nothing in this opinion that controverts the proposi tion that the power to punish for con tempts is a judicial power. "Tho case of Lowe vs. Summers, C9 Mo. Appeals, 637, lays down the broad propo sition, whic is repudiated by the supreme court of the United States in Kllbourn vs. Thompson, that the power to punish for contempts comes fro mthe common law, and is a pwor inherent In the houses or focdies comprising the legislative branch, and that for the exercise thereof no x press constitutional provision is required, and the writer of the opinion cites in sup port of this doctrine 99 N. Y., 4G3, 7 Wis., 620, 14 Gray, 226. and 6 Wheaton, 204. none of which cases support the doctrine ex cept the case of Anderson vs. Dunn, 6 Wheaton, 204, which has been expressly repudiated by the court which rendered it. The writer of that opinion falls to discrim inate between powers conferred by the constitution and powers which inhere in the legislative body. "In the case of Burnham vs. Morissey, 14 Gray, 226, cited by the Missouri court In support of the doctrine that legislative bodies have inherent power to punish for contempts, "Mr. Justice Hoar, who wrote the opinion of tho court, said: 'Tho house of representatives has the power, under the constitution, to imprison for contempt, but this power is limited to cases expressly provided for by the constitution or to cases where the power is necessarily implied from those contitu tional functions and duties to the proper performance of which it is essential. The power is expressly conferred by the con stitution and the cases there enumerated are the only ones in which a sentence of imprisonment for a term extending be yond tho session of the house can be im posed as a punishment. We therefore think it clear that it has the constitu tional right to tako evidence, to summon witnesses, and to compel them to attend and testify.' "No language could bo clearer than this that the power in Massachusetts is a con stitutional and not an inherent one. Judge Cooley says on page, 159 of his 'Constitu tional Limitations:' 'American legislative bodies have not been clothed with the judicial function, and they do not, therefore, possess the general power to 'punish for contempt, but as incidental to their legislative au thority they have the power to punish as contempt those acts of members or others which tend to obstruct the performance of legislative duty, or to defeat, impede, or embarrass the exercise of egisiative power.' "The power hero referred to by Judge Cooley is the power belonging to state leg islatures where they derive their powers from tho people through the constitutions or fundamental laws. Mr. Black, on page 264 of his" 'Constitu tional Law,' says: 'How far, or in what circumstances, the legislature may pun ish persons for contempts against it, is one of the unsettled questions of peria mentary law.' "The condition that I am led to is tha-t a territorial legislature has no inherent powers. That the common law furnishes no -warrant for the legislature exercteing judicial powers, and that no mody or tribunal, whatever its name of functions, can punish for contempts unless it is clothed with some JudWal power. ."Has our legislature any judicial power, or can the legislature confer upon itself or either body thereof such functions? In order to determine this question we 'must look to our jrrant of power, he or ganic act. This act divides our terri torial government Into three departments. and defines the power of each. Section i provides "That the legislative power of i the territory shall extend to all rightful subjects of legislation, not inconsistent with the ronsdtuCon and laws of the Uni ted States." Section S jKovtdes: "That the judicial power of the territory snail be vested ta a supreme court, district court, prooate court, and justices of the pmee." "It will be observed that all the Judicial power of the territory Is here granted to the courts, and fully disposed of. No bal ance, no remainder, no renirihini. is Ift for either congress or the legislature to deal with. "In the case of Ferris vs. Hitler 30 Wall. 373t the supreme court of he I'm- ted States was called upon to c-T.true a provision of the organic ac of th terri tory of Utah, similar to oars, a-.d h:4 that an act of the legislature atteap-ing j to confer addition; Judicial powers on the probate court was void; that such j act wa sin conliict and icconsistert w.th i the orranlc act itself "0r own court :o a rie d"idd Jure 2SNK. held that the .-s:-i.r ha r r-.- er to coafst jndjtiH. e: -r. tn- L-oa-'d of county eoamtisslo&ers.

S50, the supreme court of In diana, speaking of Chief Justice Elliott, said: 'Section 1 bf article 7, of the constitu tion vests the judicial power of the com monwealth in the courts. It ordains that "The judicial power of the state shall be vested in a supreme court, in circuit courts, and in such other courts as tho general assembly may establish.'" The effect of this provision Is to vest in the courts tho whole element of sovereignty known as tho judicial, established by." the constitution and the laws enacted und. r it. except in a few instances where pow ers of a judicial nature are pxpressly and specifically lodged elsewhere." "The supreme court of Nebraska said: The powers of the state government are divided into three distinct depart ments, the legislative, executive and judi cial, and no person or collection of per sons, being one of those departments, can exercise any power properly belonging to either of the others, except expressly so authorized by tho constitution. Lnder this division of distinct departments of the government, the apportionment of power to one department will of itself im ply an inhibition of its exercipe by the other.'

'Does any one suppose, says the su preme court of Illinois, 'that this state can rightfully confer Judicial power on any other courts than those provided for and created under our fundamental law?' "And in speaking of the provision of the constitution conferring judicial power, the court in the same opinion said This section has exhausted the Judi cial power of the people of th state.

Here ends one of the strangest romances of art and life this century has known. Frau Von Wagner was the daughter of Franz Liszt, and became first wife of Hans Von Bulow, the most devoted friend of Richard Wagner, -who married her while his friend stiil lived. "You are a poet great as Shakespeare your poetry is even more wonderful than your music," said Cosima Lisz: Von Bu low to Richard Wagner, in 1&62. The words sounded like sweetest music to the ears of the persecuted composer, who had met Europe. Coming as they did from the daughter of Franz Liszt, the wife of Hans Von Bulow, they could not fail to arouse the interest of Wagner; but it was more than interest. Is the way to a musician's heart opened by the stirring of his vanity? Was Wag ner dissatisfied with the wife of hfc. youth. the actress, Wilhelmina Planer, whom he had wedded -when he was only twenty three years old? The friends of Wagner pass this point hastily; his enemies do not know. The facts are these: Richard Wagner, tlie married man, married for almost thirty years, was in love with the wife of his best friend, the daughter of Liszt, who did more than any other musician in Europe to bring forward the "music of the future." She was twenty-nino years old, at tho height of her beauty, and thrilling at the poetic creations of Wagner. His first wife was old by this time, faded, no doubt, -worn out by the worries of living with a genius, and especially by the worry of trying to make both ends meet on nothing a year. Wagner was far from being a saint and one of his chief characteristics was his selfishness. Here, at last, was a beau tiful -woman and a highly gifted musicSon ready to fall upon her knees and wor ship the "second Shakespeare." No won der he recognized in her his "affinity." But Frau Wagner was still in the land of the living, and Cosima had a pretty and fellow-studont. Von Bulow was a most unsuspicious man. According to a work just published in German by W. Welssheimer, which is filled with revela tions concerning Liszt, Wagner and Von Bulow, the love-making of Frau Von Bu low and Wagner went on under his eyes without the least protest on his part. The story is told that when Wagner had a. thumb bitten by a dog at this tlme(lS62), Von Bulow used to amuso Wagner by playing some of his music, and Cosima sat -worshiping. It was the old story of the trusting hus band and the faithless friend, and worse. for the father of the betrayed woman had saved the life and made the fame of Wagner. In 1S49, when Wagner was in mortal danger In Dresden, it was Franz Liszt who secured a passport for him and took the political agitator to Weimar, where he was rehearsing the opera"Tann hauser," at a time when no other leader dared to take up this revolutionary music. Perhaps then the young girl of sweet sixteen was -worshipping from afar, while deeming herself doomed to perpetual lone liness, for he was a married man. In her hopelessness sho married the devoted Von Bulow when he camo a-wooing, but the fact that Wagner was already her idol, though he knew it not. Is proved by the names that she gave to the four daughters born to her as the -wifo of Von Bulow. for she called them Senta, Eliza beth, Eva and Tsolda, after tha heroines of Wagner's chief operas. Wagner writes to Welssheimer, Jn a letter published by tho latter under date of September 7, 1SC2: "Hans V. B. Is do ing his utmost for me by loaning mo a couple of hundred gulden." At the very time he was stealing the heart of tho "wife he was "borrowing" money from tho hus band, which, according to Weissheimer, ho had no thought of ever returning, any more than he thought of returning the heart of his beautiful wife to the unself ish friend. Wagner also said at this time: "Tf I could I would sell my soul for B.CX) gulden, I am in such fearful need." His friends wished to get up a fund for his support by general subscription, and Von Bulow was most active of all. writing Septem ber 23, 1C2: "This is the chief thing, after all; the master must be relieved of all worries once for all, so that he can fin ish his art mission." With all the efforts of his friends this fund could not be se cured, and for two years longer Wagner drew upon the purses of hs friends with out stint. In April. 1964, he said to Weiss heimer. "I have come to tho end of my rope: I can go no further; I must vanish from the earth. Can you save me In any -way?" And again his friends saved him. A month later came the turning point in Wagner's career. King Ludwig II.,. of Bavaria, sent for him. and thereafter he did not need to borrow money any more. Many an excursion did the friends. Wag ner and Von Bulow. take together, re joicing at the good fortune fhat hcd at last come to the master. But his good for tune wa! to be the end of the good for tune of 'on Bulow. Warmer, Cosima and Hans Bulow were inseparable. They lived together, and though Irau Wagner was not dead she was never mentioned. In 1S66 the news papers spread the report that Wagner was no longer In favor at the court, and Von Bulow allayed the apprehension of Weissheimer with a letter shich he pre fixed witk a bar from the laughing chorus of the sailors in Wagner's opera. "The Flying Dntchman." He wrote to deny the truth of the report, and excused the brevity of his letter -with the words: "Per mit me to express myself briefly, for I ant an arrangement machine for the mas ter today." The next vear Frau Waener died and one obstruction was removed Coima now became the secretary of Wagner. In a letter written in December. 1986, she first answers a communication "nt to Wag ner and then says: "My huband is very busy, but happy and Jolly." and in the nevt paragraph: "Wanjr is working hard on hi MeiTrsinger." he is a fnr as the third act. It Is and will be heav enly!" it is easy to see ia whom she was more interested. The friendship of Von Bnw was soon to be pat to the supreme test Freely hd he given hss hard-earned nv-ney and of hte precious time to whom h. followers called "master." Now be was asked to make the supreme sacrifice h,s wife ar.d the mother his children. He faced the situation not as ordinary men would have done. He secured a dUvorcp that at last there should be nothing to nnd be tween rhe master and his aflforv The ear 1879 saw Cosima Lisat Von Bulow asome the added name of Wagner, and the master was satisfied. That Khe was nis inspiration as well as his constant j assistant ig asserted by Wagner himif A son whs was named Siegfried, after the aero of the Ntoiengen y4 ,f wpr.. ia operas, was born in the sme year nd is the inheritor not nty of h's rati- era nap, nut of something of his eeniu as weii. -15 ?fr AA T-k -n. II "DeT Baeren' ONE PURE BAKING POWDER. Over seventy" per cent of all baking powders contain alum. The ill effects upon the system of food leavened by this injurious drug are attested by the highest medical authorities. Alum baking powders would be less dangerous were they fatal at once, for then they surely would be avoided, but their baneful action because imperceptible at first and slow in its advances is no less certain. Dr. Price's Cream Baking Powder is certified by all authorities as free from alum or any other adulterant. Its purity has never been questioned, and while it does finer and better work, it costs no more than many of the adulterated powders. It received the highest award at the World's Columbian Exposition, (Chicago, 1893) and at the California Midwinter International Exposition,'4 (San Francisco, 1S94) a special gold medal. hueter," has just been produced in Mu nich with great success. The marriage of this strange woman and Richard Wagner resulted in the foun dation of the famous opera house at Bayreuth, where the Wagner operas are given in accordance with the Ideas of their composer. After the birth of their son Wagner wrote to a friend: "My house is full of children the children of my wife. But, besides tnese.tnere Dooms ior me ahad narrow. e3capes from being crushed splendid son. whom I Fh all call Siegfried F Richard Wagner. Now, think what I must feel when this happiness has at last' fallen to my share. I am fifty-seven years old." SPANIARDS PLAY AT POLITICS Iq Manner to Have Edified Even 3lr. Vent of Missouri, Madrid, Feb. 22. Tho newspapers point to the fact that the unprecedented Spanish senate opposition has by interruptions, not allowed the premier, Senor Sagasta, to speak. The Liberal say3: "When matters have come to such a pass disorder and anarchy havo gained the day." The Imparcial says: "The government cannot retain power under these circum stances. The opposition in the senate in tends to offer battle to the government this evening, when the bureau will meet to ap point a commission to examine the bill for the cession of the PhillpDines. If the government find themselves In a minority thereon it is understood they will resign." The meeting of the bureau this evening to appoint a committee to examine the bill for the cession of the Philippines resu'ted in a nominal success. Although the min isterial candidates chosen were four and the opposition candidates only two. jet ...n a division the opposition will muster nine two votes, as against eighty-seven minis terialists. The opposition will, therefore, submit a counter-measure. The Republican notion in favor of sum moning the constituent assembly led to a stormy debate in the chamber of deDuties. Trof. Salmeron, the Republican leader, in the course of a violent speech, said tho Republicans had resumed their seats in parliament In order to force the srnvern ment to accept its responsibilities. In his opinion, not only those governing, but present institutions themselves would fall victims to the present disasters. Ho se verely cesured the ministers for endeavor ing to save the monarchy rather than the country. "Your colonial policy," he said, "was "disastrous because you joined sword and cassock in order to restore a feudal theocracy, with all sorts of privileges. The government has surrendered to the United States Spain f whole colonial empire, and the peace that has been signed is the most shameful recorded in history." Prof. Salmeron, after being called to or der for a veiled reference to the crown, declared that the Conservative party was primarily responsible for the country's dis asters, since it had failed to apply in Cuba reforms voted by all parties and that tho present government must also be held re sponsible for making a dishonorable peace. He advocated calling the constituent as sembly, which, ho said, would "kill for ever both Carlism and any attempt at dictatorship." He appealed to all the lib eral and democratic forces to co-operate and so "prevent the triumph of the Vati can and the reactionaries KSi For Infants and Children. The Kind You Have Always Bough!

Fire today destroyed the Lind building ,2S to 32 Market street, one of tho few buildings which stood intact through the great firo of 1S71, and the several smaller fires which threatened to destroy it since that time. Owing to the fact that a special call for thirty engines had been sent in from Swift Co.'s stock yards fire, only ten engines were left to guard the down-town district and these, assisted by two fire tugs, subdued the flames after three hours' struggle. The building, which was a eeven-story struct ure, was occupied by a large number of firms, the majority of them being machin ists, printers and engravers. The total loss is estimated at $725,000. Of this amount 575.000 is on the building. Two firemen were Injured, while many others had narrow escapes from falling floors. Hartford City, Ind., Feb. 23.

Strictly fresh eggs are so few and far between that they are curiosities. Nearly all of the offerings are from Cali fornia. The wholesale price in Chicago is 3 cents higher than in New York.

Watonga, O. T., Feb. 23. (Special.) On Monday morning last the people of Seay township, in this county, were horrified by the report that Irvin Covey had killed his wife. A Sarge crowd assembled at the Covey home. Mrs. Covey was lying upon the ground in a pool of blood, one bullet from a 3S-calibre revolver having crashed through her brain and two others through her body. Some time ago Covey and his wife parted and made a division of their property. On last Sunday night Covey went to his for mer home and remained over night. On Monday mornig the dark deed was com mitted. Probably the facts will never be known. The dead woman can tell noth ing and the man will not. The murderer was brought to Watonga on Monday night and lodged In jail. There are ow two prisoners, Conrad Maas and Covey, in the Watonga jail, charged with wife-killing. SETH LOWE AT PHILADELPHIA Praises tho War Department Some, and Roasts It n Good Deal. Philadelphia, Feb. 22 The feature of tho Washington's birthday observances at the University of Pennsylvania was the speech of Seth Lowe of New York. Mr. Lowo dwelt at length upon the recent -war with Spain, saying in part: "The me chanical skill and ready efficiency so char acteristic of the American told with over whelming effect in the overthrow of the enemy. I "wish it could be said also that the American genius for organization and for (business had displayed itself during tho war to equal advantage. In the navy it did. There was something admirable in the way In which everything that fell to the lot of the navy to do was done qui etly, without confusion and with absolute success. In the army it did not. It must in all candor be admitted that the task of the war department was much the heavi er. It had to multiply the army ten-fold, and it had to do quickly on a large scale what It had only been In the habit of do ing slowly on a small scale. But It is pre cisely under such circumstances mat genius shows, and we are obliged to ad mit that, on the side of the war depart ment, the genius that had made our rail roads the most effective in the world, the genius that is enabling our manufacturers to conquer the markets of the world, was not forthcoming. The Santiago campaign of the army was splendidly and brilliantly successful, and If the war had lasted long er I dare say we would have had a, better criterion than we have now by which to judge how much of the dreadful suffering in camp and field is inseparable from war at the very (best. But the contrast be tween the work of the na-y department and tho war department is too great to bo wholly explained away. It Is as clear as tho noonday sun that the organization of the war department is absolutely un friendly to eciency. The presidents' com mission to investigate has pplnted out tomo of the difficulties and has fougestcd some of the remedies. It remain for pub lic opinion to see that these remedies, or others equally effective, are promptly en acted Into law. I am glad that the presi dent has appointed a court of inquiry to go to the bottom of the grievous charges that have been mad against the commis sary doartment. for it is hideously in con trast nlth the self-sacrificing heroism of our troops that such charges can be mooted, much less made by the command ing general of the army. Now that the inquiry has been ordered, the people may well await the finding with patience and with an open mind, as a people too groat to do Injustice oxen to a single one not known to be at fault, and too earnest to permit ay iwho may be proven guihy either of wrong-doing or of false charge.", to escape the blazing fury of their wrath." Mr. Lowe upheld the course of the ad ministration in the Philippines. CONTINENTAL HALL FUND Daushters nftlio American Revolu tion Increase Jt S7 ."01.
