A HOPELESS CASE.
Alice Mitchell Who Killed Her
Girl Friend, Still In
sane.

MEMPHIS, Tenn, Feb. 2S.-When
the Legislative Visiting Committee
went through the West Tennessee
Asylum fer the Insane at Bolivar
yesterday their attention was natural
" directed more to Alice Mitchell,
than to all other patients put together.
They found the slayer of her girl
sweetheart in fine physical condition.
She has never Ueen sick day in the
nine months of her confinement, has
gained 30 pounds in weight and is as
handsome . girl As one could wish to
see.
Mentally, however, she shows no
improvement. She seems content with
her lot, and has very little to say
about the outside world. When the
name Of Freda Ward Is mentioned she
seems sIblued by sad recollections for
the moment. but the influence soon
passes away. leaving her as joyous as
ever. Her favorite diversion in play
ing the French harp. which she does
frequently for the entertainment of the
other patients, all of whom have the
greatest affection for her. Before
the tragedy Of twelve months ago
she was a skiliul performer on
the piano. but she is unable to stretch
an octave now, owing to having cut a
muscle in two fingers of her right
hand in handling the razor with which
she cut her victims throat. The hand
is not deiormed, but the injured fingers
have lost their former flexibiiiiy. She
is frequently visited by members of
her family and seems glad 10 see
them, but shows no grief at their de-
parturc. The most skertical are row
convinced that the girls ma.ady Is
genuine and the asylum physicians
have no hope 0f her recovery.

IN PROCESSION.
The Defeated Populists Accept
the Inevitable and Go to the
Douglass House.

Topeka, KAN, Feb. %. - The
populist house in a body except those
not having certificates from the can
wasting board and four populist who
we're unseated, fifty-four in number,
marched into the representative hall
this morning. The procession was
headed by populist Speaker Duns-
more and populist Speaker
Pro TEN Semple followed by
populist Sergeant-at-Arms Rich
carrying the United States flag. The
populists we're quietly received,
Speaker Douglass surpressing demon
stration on the part of the galleries.
The roll was called and all members
holding certificates answered.
A few populists entered their pro-
test against coming into the Douglass
house but all submitted to the DEGREES
Of the court. An hour was spent
drawing for seats.
1t took an hour and fifteen minutes
to seat the members. Then the intro
duction of bills began. Republicans in
troduoed bills and populists voted
down motions to read new bills second
time and refer them to committees.
Finally Mr.. Kenton. populist, broke
the rule and introduced a bill. He
was followed by others. The bills
we're mainly ''refer" measures which
had been acted on in the
Dunsmore house. Then the Republi-
cans took hand in voting down mo-
tons to pass bills to second reading.
After considerable chatting back and
forth bill was introduced by popu-
list providing that no obligation of
debt shall stipulate for payment in
gold.
1t was advanced to a second reaG-
ing and referred to the committee of
the whole. The legislative appro-
pria:ion bill and other appropriation
bills were read a second time and rem
dered likewise. Two ant,-gambling
bills by Cubbison went the same way.
A resolution by Seaton requiring one
half of the members of the
committees to resign in order
to make places for the popu-
lists was opposed by Mr.. Dunsmore.
He thought 1.-THE tail ought to go with
the kite" He said it was ''too late
in the session to reoreanize commit
tees" and a great deal of time was
wasted in discussing the resolution,
the republicans insisting upon its
passage. The populists took this
stand they said, not out of spirit Of
stubbOrnness but to save valuable
time.

The Air
Weather Be.

Science teaches us that nature
carefully provides essentially the
same air in all parts of the earth.
Not only are its principal constit-
uents the same, but also of one un-
varying degree Of purity.
At all attitudes and in all parts of
the world-in the streets of the most
populous cities and on the SUBMITS
of the highest hills-the proportion
of the oxygen to the nitrogen in the
FREE AIR varies but q few hundredths
of ONE per cent
While the amount of vaper in the
air may vary greatly, and We suffer
no appreciable harm, we must have
an atmosphere with not LESS than 20
per cent. of oxygen. The food We
eat may differ greatly, but the air We
breathe constantly must have oxy-
gen, with the slightest possible varia-
ton.
Bananas and blubber will each
make vital blood; but neither the
one nor the other, or any other food,
can produce a drop of vital blood
without oxygen.
The blood is the life, and the life
blood is sustained only by the oxy-
gen We breathe.
And while nature is lavish in its
supply of pure air, we often fail to
avail ourselves of the proper amount
of it.
Our indoor vocations-our insult
ficiently ventilated dwellings, shops,
factories, halls and schoolhouses,
as well as our STOPPING postures and
tight jackets, in study and work
added to the CONSTRUCTED and fire.
quently diseased condition of our
bronchial tubes and lung cells, con-
spire to rob us daily of the neces-
sary supply of natures free oxygen.
And in the degree that oxygen is
wanting, neither food, rest nor medi-
cine can supply the deficiency. All
attempts to find a substitute are not
only futile, but waste Of time and
money, and frequently perilous to
precious life. Ifyou have reason to
believe that you are suffering for
oxygen avail yourself of the earliest
opportunity to supply the deficiency.

the offender. but no coordinate branch
Of the assembly can review his action.
The union Of legislation, judicial and
exc cutive functions would constitute
arbitrary power, and would afford the
greatest opportunity for the exercise of
tyranny.
1t is shown that while the house is
supreme in its power TO unseat men,
bers in the sense that from its determi-
tion there Is no appeal, it is yet subor-
dinate to the constitution and the law,
aud disregarding these it is not consti-
tutionally organized. BY the same
reasoning, while the senate has no right
to review the acts of the house it has
the power In view of those acts to de-
determine its own, and the power of the
governor and senate thus exercised is
not renewable by the house.
The house acted In defiance OF the
law and constitution in unseating Ian
ders and Hoxsey, and the executive or
senate that would permit the consumma-
tion of palpable fraud for the purpose
Of changing the political complexion OF
the grand committee would become a
party to the fraud and be untrue to the
high trust reposed in them by the
people.
Mr.. Browns main contention is that
by the terms OF the constitution il is
the duty of the general assembly at the
May session in Newport to meet in
grand committee, count the votes cast
in the preceding state election, and
declare the result. Until this is done
there can be no adjournment, either by
the concurrent vote of the two houses
or the exercise of executive power under
the constitution.
This being the case he urges that the
adjournment Of the Legislature by the
governor was void and Of no effect and
that it is still In session. The questions
therefore are properly before the court
and should be answered as coming from
one Of the bodies given by the constitu-
tion the right to ask opinions.

Mr.. CLEVELAND MOVES.


The calling of an extra session of con-
gress for the 7th of August is in the
nature Of evidence that the president
is disposed to aocede to the emphatic
demands of he public, in some measure
at least.
A clearer thinker, more acute OBJ
server, or even a shrewder politician
would have acted earlier. The same
necessity for congressional action existed
several months ago. The stress of the
situation is greater now, simply because
causes that had then begun to operate
are now exhibiting more of the legiti-
mate results of their work. What was
months ago inevitable has now become
a condition that has brought distress to
every section and every city and town,
and has already begun to work ruin and
financial and industrial desolation.
However, it is the duty OF all good
citizens to accept the presidents tardy
act in good faith and assist as much as
possible in bringing the full force Of
public opinion to bear upon congress
when it meets. There ought to be no
politics in this matter. 1t affects all
classes alike.
In the East there is no substantial
difference of opinion regarding the
necessity of promptly abandoning the
sill ver-purchase policy, at once and un-
reser vedly. That portion of the West
that has benefited temporarily by the
artificial market created for silver will
protest with more vigor and zeal than
patriotism. The South will also doubt
less be found on the side of the silver
advocates, though there are signs that
warrant hope that even the South is
getting some financial common sense, If
not wisdom.
Since the president has called congress
together, and the power of the admins :
tration / 9 apparently to be exerted to
bring about the repeal Of the silver
purchase law, there is substantial
ground for return of public confidence
and the renewal of business activity.
There is no sufficient gro und for a fear
that congress will not repeal the
disaster bringing law, and there is no
reasonable doubt that better law will
be passed.
If the bankers will loosen the rein
they have held on money, trusting the
administration and congress to give them
statute relief at an early day, the call.
ing of the extra session of congress will
operate at once to relieve the stringency
Of the money market and check the
rapid advance toward bankruptcy the
country has been making.

THE TWO BRIEFS.

Both sides Of the controversy growing
ont of the revolutionary action Of the
Democrats in the house of representa-
tives have been presented to the supreme
court in carefully prepared and elaborate
briefs. The public will now await,
with more or less interest, the final dis
position of the matter, although it may
be said that should the contention Of
Mr.. Bosworth be sustained there is little
probability that an answer will be given
to the questions asked the court.
Mr.. Bosworth contends that the ques-
tions have no standing in court, because
they have not been asked either by the
governor, the senate or the house. 1t is
pretended by the Democrats that the
questions were asked by the house Of
representatives, but Mr.. Boswort h
shows that they were not, for the rea~
son that the general assembly had been
adjourned by the governor, under the
discretionary power given him by the
constitution, an hour or moro before the
resolution requesting the opinion was
passed.
There arises the question as to the
legality and binding effect of the gov
ernor's proclamation of adjournment.
The constitutional power of the COVER
nor to adjourn the general assembly in
a certain contingency cannot be ques-
toned. That contingency is disagree
ment between the two houses as to the
time or place of adjournment which,
upon being certified to the governor by
either house, vests him with discretion
airy power to act in the matter of ad-
journment.
He may act or he may not. That is a
matter which he alone may decide, but
should he decide to take cognizance of
the disagreement and adjourn the
assembly his action cannot be reviewed
or called in question by any authority
judicial or Legislative. Whether or not
disagreement exists is purely a ques

ing to 1T or the executive is the exclusive

Mr.. Bos worth points out that the
power to review the exercise of discre-
tionary power by the governor would
be simply to determine that he is not
the executive. Should the court assume
such responsibility 1t would become
the chief executive as well as the chief
Judicial department contingency
against which the federal as well as all

An executive may be injudicious In
the exercise Of the discretionary power
