HEADACHES OF DECISIONS
OF TEE
SUPREME COURT OF FLORIDA.
January TerR. A. ID. H@@D.

B. g. Thrasher, Appellant, W Doig q Geieer,
Appellees-Alachua County.
RANDALL, C. j.:
l. A bill is not strictly a bill of discovery if il
prays discovery Of facts when the discovery
prayed and the allegations are not separate and
distinct from the main object of the bill.
2 W hen q remedy in equity exists and REM
edy at law is created. the equity jurisdiction is
not destroyed unless by express terms Of the
law.
8. Upon bill filed to charge property with
debts contracted by an alleged owner for i'm
proveuents thereon it is disclosed that the prop
erty is the separate estate of q married woman
and her children who afe not parties to the suit,
the bill should be amended by making them par
ties with proper allegations to establish the liza
bility of their estate.
4 The estate of q married woman is not
chargeable IN equity merely by reason of stat
utory lien for buildings and improvements but
because If she contracts such debt it is implied
that she means to pay it, and if she has sepa-
rate estate that is the fund out of which PAYMENT
is contemplated
Decree reversed
Thrasher & Hampton, for Appellant; R. F.
Taylor, for Appellees.
R. L. Cathcart, Appellant, vs.. ]. W. Turner,
Sheriff, and w. F. Miey, AppelIees-AIachua
County
RANDALL C. J.:
l. As between landlord and tenant the tenant
cannot claim an exemption from levy and sale of
the products of the land rented as against the
claim for rent or for supplies furnished by the
landlord to support the tenant and his family or
TO cultivate the land, the title of the tenant
thereto being subordinate to the lien created by
the statute
2 An exemption of personal property from
forced sale under legal process. to the extent of
$1,000 in value, may be claimed under the Con-
stnution, by tenant entitled to claim exemption
when his property is levied upon for the saisfac-
ton OF claim for rent or supplies furnished by
the landlord but such exemption cannot be
claimed out of the products of the land rented
where an express lien exists under the statute
g. A suit in equity cannot be maintained under
the law of 1881 against sheriff to enjoin him
from taking proceedings TO apprase and set
apart personal property levied upon which is
wrongfully claimed by debtor to be exempt
from forced sale, unless the sheriff actually does
or threatens TO do some act upon such wrongful
claim tending to the injury of the creditor
Decree affirmed

Goss, for Appellees.

THE IRISH MUST GO.

Congressman Williams, OF Wisconsin,
made q ludicrous blunder in accepting
as genuine, and therefore submitted to
congress, a putative petition forwarded
him from Milwaukee,, praying that fur
Their immigration from Ireland should
be prohibited. The congressman might
have known, both from the text OF the
petition aud the names signed to lt.that
it was not genuine. The reasons it as
signed for the prayer preferred were
these: because such immigration
compels US to put our labor in compe-
tition with the pauper labor OF Ireland.
Because It fills our prisons and aims
houses with men to be supported at our
expense. Because it fills the country
with a foreign element that a never
to any extent be assimilated or Ameri-
canized. tor the reaso that they W
their most sacred allegiance 10 u foreign
pope, whose interests and ideas OF hu-
nan government are a~ntagonistic. Be-
cause by our laws they are made COM
petent jurors and witnesses in our courts,
while they are hound by the most sa-
cred obligations to regard the interests
of the church and priesthood above
other interests, even to the violation OF
their oaths. Because they are drunken
and rioteus." The congressman pro-
tested that he had no sympathy with the
prayer of the petition. but. right OF petit
ton being constitutional one, he would.
as in duty bound, present 1t. A man
with halt an eye ought to have discern
ed ttat some enemy. both of the con-
gressman and Irish-Americans, had
done this. Inquiry in Milwaukee dis
closes that none of the names signed is
genuiae, and some of the aggrieved
Irish are inclined to resent Williams
stupidity.

GOVERNOR wAsHBURNB DEAD.

Hon. C. c. Washburne, ex-member
Of congress and ex-governor of Wis
consin. died at Eureka Spring. Ark,
at $50 o'clock Sunday morning, of
paralysis and Bright's disease. He
went there on the 4th of February
last, in the hope of being benefited
by the use OF these waters. About
two weeks ago he began rapidly to
improve and his friends enjoyed the
hope Of his recovery. Two weeks ago
he commenced to fail and on the 9Th
inst, was seized with delirium, never
again to become fully rational, al.
though he had occasionally, but very
brief, lucid intervals. On Tuesday
evening, the 9th inst, he had an at.
tack of apoplexy, which was the third
or fourth since his original attack and
his case became utterly hopeless. But
the final crisis came at 2 o'clock Satur.
day morning, the 18th inst, when he
was struck with death. He fell into
a state of profound Inconsistencies,
aud fingered until he died. There
were present at his death several mem.
beers Of his family, his brother E. g..
Washburne. of Illinois. his daughter.
Mrs. Payson and her husband, Hen.

minister to Denmark, and his BROTH

OUR BALLOON.
BY JIMMY BROWN,

I've made up my mind that half the
trouble boys get into is the fault OF the
grown-up folks that are always wanting
them to improve their minds.
l never improved my mind yet with.
out suffering for it. There was the time
I improved it studying wssps. just as
the man who lectured about wasps and
elephants and other Insects told me to.
If it hadn't been Tor that man l never
should have thought OF studying wasps.
One time our school teacher told me
that 1 ought to improve my mind by
reading history, SO l borrowed the his.
tory OF Blackboard the Pirate, and i'm
proved my mind Tor three or iour hours
every day. Alter awhile father said,
"Bring that book to me. Jimmy, and
let's see what you're reading" and

THE SMALLEST BABY LIVING.
From the Carson {xey., Appeal.l

IRON the Carson Nev.) Appeal
A gentleman from Cand-laria informs
US that the smallest baby in the world
was born in that camp at noon on the
third inst. The father is a miner in the
employ OF the Northern Belle mine and
weighs 1870 pounds. The mother is a
stout. healthy woman weighing perhaps
100 pounds. The child is q male, us
perfectly formed as any human being
can be. but upon its birth it only weigh
ed eight ounces Its face Is about the
size Of a horse chestnut, and the size of
its limbs can be imagined when We say
that a ring ON the little finger Of
It's mother was easily slipped over ITS
loot nearly up to the knee. Our infor-
mant states that it Was the opinion oil
the attending physician that the child
would live and prosper IN good health,
Notwithstanding it's diminutive proper
tions. The midget IL so small that
three OF its size could play hide-and.seek
in q cigar-box. This is believed to be
the smallest baby ever born.

BY MISS FLORA n. PICKET.

Jesse's life was rowing and wild,
Even when he was q child;
And when he into boyhood grew.
His cheeks were LIT with roses hue.
Then to manhoods cline he came,
Time did not change him he was the same
And after marriage he was unsettled too,
And planned for robberles and things anew
He lived round under false names.
And never was called Jesse James;
When at st. Joe he lived his last,
1t was there the fatal shot was cast.
He now has left the past behind.
For men to pen in frigid lines;
His life Of harrows now are DER.
He has departed for another shore.

FINE vARNISHES.

I keep Tascott & Sons, which is of most excellent
one pint upward in size, so that a lady can use a little of it
to varnish a chair, a bureau or a bedstead, pour what is left

A brush will cost her 20 cents, and can be made to last a
long time. Thus it is very cheap and convenient. No one
