THE author of ssAdam Bede, +" 'Silas
Mariner" ssROmOla," ssMiddlemarch,"
and 'sDaniel Deronda'' was q woman of
extraordinary insight and reasoning
power, with mental training and COM
prehensive requirement which, without
her imaginative genius, would have
made her famous not only among
women, but among all contemporaries.
There is some disposition, accordingly,
and naturally, to underestimate her
high and beautiful imagination. But if
the lofty company of "Shakespeare's
women, !" as Shelley called them, re-
ceived no real addition until SCOTS
Jeanne Deans, has there been any such
permanent and noble accession to their
society since Jeanne Deans as Dinah and
Romola? Dickens women are anus

during figure Of its kind, Jane Eyre Is

Miss Burney, Miss Austen, Charlotte
Bronte, and George Eliot are the chief

unquestionably the one of greatest
power Is she who lately died. The dis
tinctions among them are absolutely

SCOTS assertion that the business of the
story-teller is to amuse; the last two
were inspired BY the humane desire of
great souls not only to amuse but to as
sist mankind. How far this desire Is .
constituent element of creative genius,
and whether, If the moral purpose be
excluded severely from art, the moral
result is not more surely attained, we
need not now consider. It Is very pos
sibly true. It is possible that Scott will
outlive the distinctively humane school,
and that he and Shakespeare and
Homer are moral only as nature is
moral, and therefore moro deeply and
effectively moral than any other literary
influence can be. But none the less the
great genius which was lately withdrawn
from rs, and which will be always
known in literary history as George
Eliot, win be always honored also as
one of the greatest literary forces in our
common language.-Editor's Easy

The Supreme Court ON the Constructions
Amendment. a .'tr -.t

Amendment. a't1 4
t..aH g.I rtT Topeka, Feb. %.
The Supreme Court to-day filed its opin-
ion upon the Constitutional Amendment re.
lating to the prohibition of intoxicating
Houors for use as beverage submitted to the
electors of the State at the November election
of $780, and also as to the effect of such amend
ment upon existing laws relating to sale of
Intoxicating liquors. The CourtInanimOusly
holds that the proposed amendment was le-
gally adopted andfs part of the Constitution
in accordance with the decisions of the
Supreme Court of the United States that the
State has the right to prohibit the
liquors for sale as beverage.
Justice Horton and Mr.. Justice Valentine,
hold that the Constitutional Amendment
does not repeal the Dram shop act In toto. but
only repeats it 30 far as that act authorized
licenses for the sale of intoxicating liquors AS
q beverage From this construction the pen
alties of the Dram-shop act are In force in all
cases where sales are made OF intoxicating
liquors for use as a beverage. Mr.. Justice
Brewer upon this point holds that the Con.
stitutional Amendment Is substitute for all
former laws relating to the sale of intoxicat-
ing liquors. and upon its adoption IS part OF
the Constitution of the State the Dram shop
act ceased to have any effect. In all cases be
fore the Court questioning the conviction OF
the defendants for violation of the dram shop
law the Court sustatns the Judgments Of the
District Court.
