4 DISPATCH from Homestead says
non-union man came there on the 24th
instant 10 work, and when asked by
some of the strikers what he came far,
he told them it was none of their bust
ness. For this he was pounded into
state of scmi-inscnsibility, hustled into
q row boat, carried to the opposite
shore in Il limp state, and after a few
parting cuffs ordered to get out. The
Constitution of the country, and that OF
Pennsylvania, guarantees to every cltl-
zen the right to work, and the Bible
makes the exercise of that right COM
mand; but how can the right be used
or the command be obeyed where such
incidents as that referred to occur =?
And that too when the police force OF
Homestead has been increased, and
when it is supported by the whole mill
tary power of the second State in the
Union

ENTIRE FAMILY DRowNED.-The Sc
we're storm which passed over the vi
cinity of Wheeling, w. Va, Sunday
night was more disastrous in its re-
suits than was at first dreamed of. 1t is
now known that there was considerable
loss of life besides some destruction of
property by lightning. An entire fami-
Iy of nine persons is reported to have
been swept from the face of the earth
by sudden food following q cloud
burst. The house was situated in IA
vine and was 81 swept away by the tor
rent. Not one of the Sleep, occu-
pants was saved. At Proctor, on the
Ohio River Railroad long, trestle was
washed out and freight train was
wrecked. Twenty-eight cars were piled
up and an engineer, Will Beasley, of
Parkersburg, was so injured that his
leg had to be amputated yesterday.
At Parker's the State militia is in an
nual encampment, and yesterday after
noon second storm wrecked the
camp.

AMULET WORN By DE SoTo.-During
the meeting of the State Teachers As
ISOLATION at Warrensburg, Mo-, in June,
there was an exhibit of a most queer
medal: which is supposed to be an ANU
let Worn by De Soto during his explora
tions through that part of the country.
1t is of pure silver and bears inscrip-
tions on both sides, while it also bears
the insignia of the Pope and an image.
On one side is q representation Of Christ
on tine cross between the two thieves,
while on the other is the representation
of the Last Supper
The date is very plain in large, bold
letters or figures, and shows that the
amulet was made in 1915, or nearly $50
years ago. The amulet is the property
of Major Turner, who purchased it Of a
ieweer in the southern part of the
State, who said he got it from u negro
who had dug it up on his farm on Turn
Back creek.
The man was ploughing, and in
breaking new piece of ground discov-
cred the silver medal, which was tar
nished, ard carried it to the jeweler,
who paid him its value in silver for it,
supposing it was simply some relic of
the Indians and without much histori-
cal interest.
1t has been examined by several anti
quarians, and all agree that it is genu-
inc and believe that 1t had been thrown
away on account of its time expiring,
rs these amulets were blessed by the
Pope for certain length of time and
given to those who were about to travel.

The center OF the picture OF which the

woman sitting by the hearth rug read

Her figure was full and wOmanly, her
dress plain and well fitting, and her gen.

book lay upon the table within the cir

it In an attitude OF deep absorption.
There was something grand and gra-

Anthony and made the wish in his heart

and straight Of grain for a little kid.

Twenty years is a long time, Is II noti

convertible terms. II there were any
distinction, the various expressions
IN the Constitution would produce
strange results, as for instance, the
quorum required by Article 40 need
not be quorum of the constitutional
number of fifty two, but only of the
actual or existing number, while a
| majority TO vote out cabinet would
have to be more than is required for
quorum. No added force can be
given to the word ''all" in connection
with members unless such absurd re-
suits are to follow.
The objects Of the people and of
representative government are not so
likely to be secured by construction
which makes it more difficult to IN
seat ministry. Such construction
ought to be clearly required and
authorized, or else rejected. There
is no requirement of law that ma
jority shall include any but members,
or that vacant seats shall serve to
strengthen the minority and weaken
the majority?
It is a greater evil to enable a cor
rupt ministry to hold Office than to
allow a smaller majority to unseat a
good ministry. Representative gov
eminent is not meant to keep long
tenures, secure against a renewed
appointment from the popular source.
In Osborn vs.. Staley, 5 W. Va, S.,
Ii Am. r. $40, an act passed by elev-
en- senators in a body of q, which
when full had % members, was sus-
tanned, the Court, although saying
that "the true theory of representa-
tive government is that majority of
the representative and all the peo-
pie to be bound by any law, should
assent to it," also gave the following
excellent reasoning In favor of the
law
what is the meaning which should
be given by the Courts to the words,
members elected If they can be held
to mean persons who are members
at the slime the vote is taken, then
the bill was passed by sufficient
number Of votes. The words ap-
pear to me to mean that a per-
son must be a member as well
as 'elected;' and il a Senator re-
signs his seat, and his resignation is
accepted, is he still q 'member?' 1t
is certainly not clear beyond rea-
sonable doubt, that the words mem
bers elected can only refer to persons
elected at the last preceding election,
although they may have ceased to be
members at the time the vote is
taken"
State VS.. Mcbride, 4 Mo 303, holds
that the word House." as used in
the Constitution, does not mean all
the members elected, but simply
quorum.
So Southworth vs.. Railroad, 2
Mich, 287.
There being no constitutional rule
which requires that Legislative acts
be done only by definite number of
persons, a majority of such persons
as are in esse must suffice.
Ii this be admitted, the vote in the
present case was that of majority.
The doubt, if any, should be given
to the representatives and not to the
Ministers.

Good and bad seeds often have the same
