A DEBTORS ABSENCE.
Peculiar Point Decided by Justice Gee


A Eecuiiar HolnC decided by Justice Gee
Yesterday.
Justice Gee has just rendered decision
in a case which involved very unique
law point. Galloway, Hook & Company
brought suit against William Carroll for
SO, alleged to be due for merchandise,
and Carroll pleaded the statute of limita-
ton. There was nc. dispute as to the fact
that 1t had been more than two years
since the last purchase was made, but the
plaintiffs alleged, and it appeared from
the evidence, that Carroll was in Europe
four months, and that the, two years ex-
pired while he was there. Hence, the
plaintiffs held that the four months
should be deducted, which would pre-
vent the defendant from pleading the
statute of limitation. The de-
tense admitted that Carroll was
absent, but alleged that he
left his residence and furniture
here in the care of someone and that his
absence did not prevent the plaintiffs
from instituting their suit within the
time prescribed by law. AS they did not
do so, the defendant held that the statute
should be enforced. Authorities without
number were cited on both sides, but af-
ter careful consideration of the same the
court held that the four months should
be deducted, and accordingly rendered
judgment in favor OF the plaintiff.

Catarrh Rare Among ouakeresses.

The late DIR. Agnew, of Philadelphia,
said that catarrhal affections were almost
unknown among the Quakeresses whom
he attended, and he ascribed it to the fact
that the Quaker bonnet protects the back
of the head and the nape of the neck from
cold air. He might have gone further
and added that the Quaker women have
come nearer than any Others of their sex
to discovering the perpetual bloom of
youth. One meets in and about Phila-
delphia scores of Quakeresses who retain
in old age fresh, unwrinkled faces, clear
eyes and erect figure? The peace and
health of their spirits seem to conform to
face and figure.-Nelg York Sun.

Experiments With Infected Cattle.

Interesting experiments are now being
tried in England by a royal commission
on tuberculosis. A COW is selected and
for considerable time is watched care
fully to see that it is free from disease.
It is then fed for some days on food in
fected with the bacteria and tuberculosis,
and afterward time is allowed for the
development Of the infection.
The commission is to report whether
meat and milk from such animals are in
fective, and if SO the degree to which the
use of them is likely to affect public
health.
The experiments, which are necessarily
slow, have consumed much time. The
commission met recently to consider the
results so far arrived at, but the final re-
port will probably not be made before
the autumn.
In view of the care with which this
work has been done, the results will be
of considerable value and may cause
changes in the laws respecting the inn
portation of cattle.-New York Sun.

Champion of the British Monarch.

Queen Victoria has lost her champion.
He died only the other day, but his son
succeeds to the Office. It is his duty to
stand ready at all times to defend against
all corners the right of the sovereign to
her crown. But he only appears in pub.
lie, personally or by duty. on coronation
day, when, unless the sovereign dispenses
with the ceremony, he must declare
her formally crowned, throw down the
gauntlet and defy her enemies. If the
champion fails in this duty, he forfeits his
estate, given the family by William the
Conquerer, and sinks into middle class
obscurity, for the queens champion is
not nobleman. Yeoman and squire was
Robert de Marmyon when William the
Conquerer made him his champion and
gave him the manor of Scrivelsby, and
his descendant, who has just surrendered
the Office by death, was a simple justice
of the peace. Queen Victoria did not
call upon her champion at her corona
ton, nor did William ". George Nv was
the last king at whose coronation the
ceremony was observed, but the simple
country squire who succeeds now to the
championship is not at all likely to be
called upon to perform the duty Of his

Victims of Necessity.

The San Francisco branch of the w.
G. T. U. is making an effort to rescue the
women and girls employed in the drink
ing dives of the city. At a recent meet
ing called to discuss the subject young
Swedish woman, married and of re-
spectacle social standing, related her ex-
perience as a waitress for five years in
the dives of New York and three months
in San Francisco. In summing up the
facts adduced from her personal obser-
walton she said:
young girls from Sweden are system
atically decoyed to America, placed in
the dives and kept there They know
that in the old country respectable wom-
en- work as mattresses where beer is sold,
for the saloons are respectfully conducted
and the men who patronize them are re-
spectacle. The different condition of the
American dive is not understood, and the
victims readily accept the fattering Of
fer. They come, but cannot get away
again. When they become Disguised and
alarmed. they tell the proprietors-th their
captors-that they want to get away.
But they are only laughed at and told
that they can do nothing else; that no
body else will employ girl who has
worked in dive. They are made to un-
derstand that they are living wrong lives,
and their lives are made wrong. What
can they do. where can they go, helpless
and alone in a strange land where their
language is not spoken"

The Abode Of Poverty.

The heart and center of one of this
city's most squalid quarters is the Third
district police station, at Seventh and
Carr streets. From that as center and
branching out in all directions long,
narrow streets and alleys lead away,
lined by the humblest and shabbiest of
houses and filed with the poorest and
most ignorant members Of the city's
population. Not alone are the streets
marrow as they are and overcrowded)
lined with houses, but the alleys and
back lots are built upon and occupied
by human wretches whose mode Of e1-
istence is far outclassed in comfort by
that of almost every cart horse and beast
Of burden within the city's walls. From
the Third district station officers ''beat
out" in pairs and keep one another COM
pany during the night for mutual pro-
lection. The people that live in some
sections are low, ignorant and unclean-
II. Their tastes have somehow been de-
formed and degraded. The boon of ma
lures freedom has been withheld from
them, and all the paths to better,
cheerier existence are forever closed to
them by the bars and chains Of their
own blunted desires.-St. Louis Repub-

Human Nature Is Queer.

Next to the first pronounced hoopskirt
on Broadway the first straw hat of the
season creates the largest attention.
When a man has confidence enough in
the weather to start out for a two days
trip with straw hat, he is planning
great responsibility upon the weather
bureau, which stands for our modern
providence. saw such a man at the
Fifth Avenue hotel one day, and his was
the first straw hat of the season. To say
that he attracted much attention and
was the subject of great many pleas
antries is putting it very mildly. There
are some people, however, who are either
Indifferent to criticism or too obtuse to
observe it, who begin things without con-
sulting other people. Somebody has to
begin, you know, but the large majority
of mankind lack the nerve of woman
kind and dread to be conspicuous in any
particular as to dress.
Men are awful towards when it comes
to dress. They wait for those of better
nerve and then follow like a flock Of
sheep. Scarcely man Of all those who
smiled and sneered and laughed at the
man with the first straw hat but will be
wearing straw hat himself this sum-
mer. Yet if all men were like these no
such thing as the comfortable straw
would have ever been worn, because no
man would have had the courage to be-
gin it, There is certain humor in the
incongruity of things, it is true, and if a
man appear on Broadway in straw hat
and ulster he is likely to be sensation
at this season Of the year. A month
or two later and the man with the over
coat and straw may be seen at any sum-
mer ort.-New York Herald.

RESOLUTIONS
Adopted by the Executive Com
mittees of the Peoples Party
and the State Alliance.

Following is the full text of the
resolutions adopted by the execu-
tive committees of the peoples party
and the state farmers alliance at the
Joint session held at St. Paul July
9Th, 1893:
ENDORSING MR.. DONNELLY.
"Resolved, That we have entire
confidence in Hon. Ignatius DOnnel-
ly. We believe that he has been and
is the best friend the farmers and la
bOrers have had in Minnesota, for
the last thirty years; and that dur
ing all that time he has been the
target of plutOcracy, and their hire
lings.
FUSION"
Resolved, That we resent the i'm
putatiOn that the peoples party of
the state of Minnesota in the last
campaign, ''fused" with the demo-
cratic party, as an absolute, unjusti-
fable falSehOOd.
ENDORSING THE REPRESENTATIVE.
"Resolved, That we desire to ex-
press our cordial approval and hearty
endorsement of the new alliance pa
per, the REPRESENTATIVE, and we
ask every friend of reform in the
state to constitute himself commit
tee of one to work constantly to sus-
tain it and increase it's circulation.
1t is laboring, in a moderate and
temperate spirit, to unite all ele-
ments OF reform, in this state, in
harmonious action;it is owned by the
local alliances; 1t cannot and 1t aUill moi
sell us out IN the crisis Of q campaign;
and if it is sustained, as it should be,
it will give us the state in 1894. We
ask every local alliance and every
peoples party club and industrial
league in the state, to go to work at
once and help build it up and make
it great power"
This was followed by the following,
also unanimously adopted:
Resolved, By the peoples party
state central committee, that our
chairman Mr.. T. j. Meighen, is here.
by requested to solicit subscriptions
of stock to our paper, the REPREsEN.
TATIvE, from such persons as in his
Judgment might be inclined to assist
our cause"

The Caliph In q Fix.

The caliph of Khartoom is in bad
way. He owns 700 watches, and not one
of them goes. In 1885, when the Mahdists
invaded the town, all the.European watch
makers left the place, and none of the
natives understand matchmaking. To
have 700 tickers and not know the time
awkward, very. The caliph has sent
special messenger to Suakin to engage
a matchmaker, but he has been received
very coolly. The ruler of Khartoom is

NAMES,
THE POLITICAL OUTLOOK.

Resolved, That we desire to say to
the members of the peoples party Of
this state, that the prospects for the
success of the principles our party
were never SO bright as they are to-
day. The terrible collapse of the
business and commerce of the whole
country, and the great suffering
which is following and must follow
to the mass of the people, who labor
for living, are opening the eyes of
the voters to the fact that the finan-
cial principles of the old parties are
destructive of the country, and they
are coming over to the peoples party
by the hundreds of thousands. We
have only to stand firm by our prin-
ciples to speedily achieve state and
national triumphs.
Resolved, That in the presidential
campaign of last year we told the
people that the great issue was the
financial one: and that the Outcry of
both the old parties, about the tariff,
was simply sham fight, agreed upon
by them, for temporary purposes, to
divert public attention from the real
questions at issue. The result has
proved the truth of our statements:
the tariff issue is now dead and
buried; the money issue is the sole
and only one before the people to-
day. We call the attention of the
voters to this to show how cunningly
they were humbugged, by the money
power, acting through the leaders of
two great agencies, the republican
and democratic parties.
THE FREE SILVER CONVENTION.
Resolved, That we urge that full
delegation go from Minnesota to the
Chicago convention. to be held
August 1st, 1893; to protect against
the repeal of the Sherman act and to
demand the full reconciliation of
silver. We believe that the said con-
ventiOn will be the most important
held in this country, in the last quar-
ter of a century.
RESOLUTIONS OF COINCIDENCE.
Resolved, That we have heard
with profound regret of the great
and irreparable loss sustained by our
friend and fellow member of this
committee, Hon. III. P. Bjorge, in the
loss of his eldest son; and we assure
him that le and his family have the
sympathy of all who know them in
their great affection.
Resolved, That this resolution be
spread upon the minutes of the state
farmers alliance, and the secretary is
directed to forward a CODY of the
same to Mr.. BjOrge.
