I INQUIRED of the matron the most frequent

selves. The answer came promptly: "Al-

Another story, aud older, has been told OF

every State In the Union represented, Il IL
proposed to enact an election law, not to
meet the contingency Of neglect of any
State to be represented, but on the idea,
which is undoubtedly the predominant mo-
tive with the advocates OF this bill, that in
certain States the elections for Representa-
tives in Congress are 80 conducted as to de-
prive some of the voters practically Of the
elective franchise. Even II this we're some
thing more than q pretext; if 1t
we're not the animating motive of the
bill to subserve a party purpose
"a motive that is not concealed, be-
cause the complaint is that the Republican
party in certain States does not get the rep
resentation to which it is entitled-it would
not follow that Congress is authorized to do
what political party desires to do. Con-
gress is not authorized to make laws to regu-
late elections so rs to secure Q majority to .
political party in either or both of the
Houses. although that party may think that
it has not the majority which it ought to
have, and might have, BY taking the control
of elections out of the hands OF the State
Legislatures and vesting 1t In the hands Of
Federal officers. The utmost that Congress
can constitutionally do is to make system
OF conducting these elections when State
has no such system. or when the State regu-
lations are such as to give one class of voters
an advantage over another class. There
can be no pretense to say that this is the
case now.

EXPECTED TROUBLE AvERTED.
No New Districts In the City for the Fall
Elections.

No New Districts In the City for the Fall
Elections.
The trouble feared at the polls at the
election to be held this fall, owing to the re-
districting Of the city. has been averted.
When the report of the commission ap-
pointed to redistrict the wards Of the city
was filed in court, it was approved by Judge
Collier, no exceptions having been made.
This at once put in force the new districts
and new boundary lines made, and ques-
ton arose concerning the fall election. At
the beginning of the year register assessors
wers elected In the various districts, and
they proceeded to make out the registry OF
voters for their respective districts. The
approval of the commissions report, how
ever, changed the districts, and therefore
rendered worthless in half the wards of the
city the lists of voters. In the new districts
there would be no lists and no registers, and
in the changed districts the lists would be
incorrect. This would necessitate the swear
ing OF every voter.
As there was no way in which there could
be a new registration taken this year, the
matter began to present serious phase.
The County Commissioners discussed it, and
finally called the attention of Judge Collier
toit He Immediately rescinded his order
approving the report of the commission,
and directed that it remain on file until
after the fall election. By this proceeding
the next election will be held with the old
districts in force, and the new division will
not come into play until next year.

Sensible Hints for summer.

To the many hundreds of families who do
not find it convenient to leave the city for
the summer months the following hints will
be found valuable. Avoid exposure to the
sun as lar as possible; do as little cooking as
you can, thereby keeping your house and
yourself cool, aud the best summer drink by
all odds is buttermilk. Cover your floors
with cool and clean mating, hang lace cur
tsins to your windows, thereby letting in the
air and keeping out the flies, and where cur
tains are not used hang window shades that
will exclude the light and heat During
the day wear o neat gingham dress and for
evening put on cool satine wrapper, bathe
every day and get your hosiery, underwear,
fans, etc., from Arthur Schondelmyer &
Co.. who have mattings at Sc and 10c per
yard, lace curtains at 81 pair and upward,
window shades at 25c apiece and upward,
ginghams, percales and satiDes from 10c to
25c per yard. By observing the above hints
you will hare no trouble getting through
the summer. Come to 68 and 20 Ohio ST.

A POLITICAL DECISION.
An Election Under the Australian system
Null!fied by the Court.

An Elecuon Uu0er tue Austruitau Syetem
Null!fied by the Court.
HELENA, Mon, August Ia case OF
great Importance, under the Australian bal
loting system, was decided by the Supreme
Court here yesterday. At the last election
the candidates for the office of Justice were
Lush, Democrat, and Price, Republican.
Lush failed to notify the Clerk OF the Court
of his candidacy within the prescribed time
before election. and neglected other technic-
alities. He received, however, a majority
of the votes. and was given the Office
Price brought suit in the District Court,
which decided against him on the ground
that as Lush had received a majority OF the
votes, and as the suit was based on more
technical points, the choice of the people
should be upheld. The case was taken into
the Supreme Court, which reyerses the
Judgment OF the lower court.
The main point in the decision was that
the Australian ballot law of the State is
mandatory and not directory in its charac-
ter, and that all its provisions must be car
ried out in the minutest detail. 1t is the
general opinion of lawyers that much liti-
cation will grow out of this decision.

About 100 of his most characteristic poems
were already written, and the now priceless
first addition Of the same had been issued
from the rural press of Kilmarnock, in the
county of AYR. Twin children had
been born to him out of wedlock by Jean
Armour, one OF whom, Robert, in alter
years a man of rare character and worth,
survived the poet So years, his deeease oc-
curing at Dumfries in 1857, and his body

Campbell died and was buried at Greenock.
Burns local fame having attracted the at
tention of the literary coterie at Edinburgh,
he was invited to that city, where he was
affiliated" at the famous lodge of Free
masons (Which still meets in the veritable
rooTs then use6) and subsequently 'Hinaugu-
rated" as its poet laureate, the latter event
being the subject of a celebrated painting;
while he was made the literary lion of the
day, as new and enlarged editions of his
poems appeared. He then made a tour
of the border counties of England
and Scotland, and, untarnished by
fame, returned to Mauchline, the old
home-spOt in Ayr, drawn there by
his true love for his Jean, who re-
pented her remuneration, and with whom the
former intimacy was renewed. The tour of
the North was then made; Burus returned
to greater Edinburgh literary triumphs; he
was introduced to Mrs. Maclehose. the
''ClariDda" OF his famous correspondence;
and again returning to his beloved Jean,
took her secretly to Tarbolton Mill Tor con-
fnement there in disgrace, when twing,
both OF which died, were again born to

lucky meeting with the ingen uous and kindly
Patrick Miller, Of Dalswinton Hall, had
occurred. 1t had been settled that the poet,
who hated the city with q royal hatred
should return to the pillow. The nobility
of the day never quite iorgave this plebeian
