THE QUESTION OF INABILITY
AGAIN.
Points to be SettIed-VIeVys of Sena-
tors Jones and Garland.
Washington Star of Saturday.


TIE question of the inability Of the,Preti
dent and the transfer of the executive
Office during fits continuance to the Vice
President continues to be q leading one.
The plan brOached, that the President IN
vite the Vice President to act In his stead
and sign his name for him, is generally
secuted as untensble in law. The three
points uppeTmOst are, what constitutes
Presidential inability, who is to determine
when It exists, and who is to determine
when It ceases to exist9
SENATOR JONES' OPINION.
Senator Jones, of Florids, is ia the city.
His opinion is that there can be no tempe
rary disability of the President. The Con-
stitltion prescribes that the Vice President
shall become President only in case of the
death, resignation, or Inability of the Presi-
dent to discharge the powers and duties OF
his office. He thinks that the disability
contemplated by the Constitution mesus q
disability so pronounced that the Executive
shall in every sense be dead, as It were, OF
unsble to discharge his duties for the re-
ma.nder Of his term.
SENATOR GARLAND, OF ARKANSAS,
who is in the CITY, refuses to give any opin-
| ion in exteDso on the subject, as IL is ques.
tiol that be might be called to pass upon in
his capacity as Senator sooner or later He
not believe the Cabinet had any power to
act in any capacity other than as advisers OF
the President. He said in one sense It was
purely a constitutional question, and in an
other there might be much politics in it,
and he had made 1t a rule throughout hii
/ public life never to give an opinion on pub
| lie questions that he might be called upaI
as a Senator to pass upon officially, for the
reason that he might have to modify or ex-
plain.
A HYPOTHETICAL CASE,
is thus put by a lawyer: Suppose, instead
of being shot, that the President had met
with railroad accident whereby he lost
both his hands. This would debar hin
| from signing his name, but it would moi
create such an inability that he could moi
! act as President so long as his mind was
clear. Hence the logical conclusion is that
an inability to act means the loss of mental
capacity, and not physical incapscity."

something like rheumatism. She was
also very much troubled with corns and

that she could walk, and sometimes
when she would visit her husbands shoe

not get home again without assistance,
and often when she was walking along
the streets she would be seized with
such acute pain that she was compelled
to stop in at the neighbors on the way
until she got better. Some two weeks
ago she heard of the wonderful cures
st. Jacobs Oil was effecting and she at
once commenced to use it and expert
enced great relief Immediately. The
pains have left her feet and ankles and

The Chime Bells.

List the music of the chime bells,
How it bursts upon the ear
With its low reverberations,
Sounding distant far, then near.
How the night wind rising, falling,
Bears along within its breast
The sounds, resounding, dying,
Till ones heart is full of rest
What strange thoughts the bells awaken
AS they sound upon the air
How the wind clings to their echoes,
And forgets all present care!
What mournful, weird expression
Have the chime-bells, as they roll
In floods of melody deep-sounding,
Round about the weary soul
To the saddened heart, how soothing
Are the softened sounds they pour
Upon the night air, like the murmur
Of the wavelets on the shore

Scrap.ROOks.


Every farmer should keep blank
book, in which to paste any agricultural
scraps of value he may meet with in
reading paper. He will perhaps see
suggestions the value of which he may
desire to test, or hints ne may wish to
be governed by in his various operations
on the farm; and yet, after reading the
paper, he is apt to throw it down never
to see it again. In such case all the
valuable articles will be lost. To pre-
vent this he should clip from the pa
pers such articles as he wishes to pre-
serve and paste them in scrap book,
to be referred to as occasion may require.
Such book at the end of year or two
will be found to be both interesting and
valuable.
Buryina Potatoes.
Dig pit some two feet deep on ris-
ing ground and of such circumference
as the quantity of potatoes will require,
covering the bottom and sides with a
few inches of straw. Then in with your
potatoes, piling up cone-shape, as near
as possible, after which cover the pile
with some six inches of long straw,
putting it on evenly all over and cov-
ering the same, with the exception of
the top, with about six or eight inches
of earth, which cover with boards, leav-
ing it so until the approach of cold
weather, when cover the top as you did
the rest, only adding some two or three
inches more of earth over the whole,
and your work is done.
