The Supreme Court has adjourned
until March 7, two days before the
end of the Legislative session, so that
in all probability the legality of the
two houses cannot be tested now.
Judging from the row now on the Re-
publicans DO not want the court to
pass upon their organization and pro-
pose to put the Populists out The
HERALD has urged its party friends
to test the case in Il court in which
the republicans haye a majority of
members, and to submit to the ruling
of this body. Now it urges upon the
populist body to pay no attention to
orders, warrants or bulls issued by
the other branch. The populists.
though tardy IN doing so, were shap-
ing matters for legal test, but the
late movements of the other side rath-
err Indicate that they are unwilling to
run the gauntlet of IA legal body in
which their party predomnates.

The Dispatch man is much worried
over the new senator from Nebraska.
What is the matter with him? He
was an old soldier and previous to
his going over to the Populists was
an enthusiastic republican and was a
member of the state convention of
1890 and took an earnest and active
part in that famous campaign, stump
ing the state for his party ticket and
doing splendid work for 1t, He is an
enthusiastic Grand Army man, and
on every possible occasion gives evil
dence of his love for the old soldiers,
taking prominent part in the state and
district encampments. The newly
elected senator is Il giant in stature,
and 1t is said his mental caliber is
consistent with his makeup.

Mr.. Biddle's Bond,

There is considerable discussion re-
garding the bond given by Mr.. Bid
die, the present state treasurer. OF
course the republicans claim it to be
worthless. The Belleyille freeman
of last week prints a list Of Mr., Sto-
ver's bondsmen and the amounts for
which they qualify. Some Of these
gentlemen are immensely wealthy on
the bond, but the tax records do not
show any mention Of a large share Of
their claimed wealth. So much for
the Belleville part Of the bond, A
large number Of sigaers resided else
where. The Topeka Jo'uRat says of
the bond
"Ex-Treasurer Stover never fur
nished a legal bond" 50 says MIR. Ii.
Lewellyn Jones of Anthony, Harper
county, u Populist attorney who has
spent several days Investigating the
bond filed by Treasurer Slower in the
Office of the secretary of state,
Mr.. Stoyer's bond and Mr. Biddle's
are alike in that neither of them are
on one sheet of paper Mr.. Bddle's
is made up of many little slips pasted
together. MIR. Stoyer's consists of
several sheets OF paper not fastened
together in any way, not even pasted.
EX-Treasurer Stoyers bond is us
remarkable a document as the one re-
Gently filed by Treasurer Biddle The
only bond filed by Ex-Ireasurer Sto-
yer purports to be in the sum of one
million dollars. but the sums set OPP
posite the names Of the sureties mem
toned in the bond and who qualified,
amount to only S720500, and that the
bond is signed by several persons
who did not qualify.
Several well-known republicans are
on the bond for sums much in excess
of what they are generally supposed
to be worth, and each person. signing
the bond was required by law to quail
ify for double the amount of the sub
scription set opposite their names.

The Storm.

Wednesday evening about 6 o'clock
threatening clouds in the southwest
indicated a storm. BY s o'clock rain
began to fall in torrents. Vivid flash
es of lightning, accompanied by
heavy peals of thunder continued
throughout the entire night. No
hail of any consequence fell here
and there was but little wind. At
Whlteville we understand hail stones
as large as hen eggs were picked uD
upon the streets. lightning struck
the residence of Mr.. +. L.. Lightfort,
Jr., two miles northwest of Bolivar.
A large hole was knocked in the
ceiling, the mantle piece was torn
from IFS position and some of the
flooring damaged. Mr.. Llghtfort
and his family were sitting around the
lire place, but strange to say were
unlnjured. This is the only damage
we have heard of in Hardeman coun-
tY so far. Of course garden truck
and fruits were somewhat injured
wherever the hail fell.
At Robinsonville, Miss, several
lives were lost and the town almost
entirely destroyed. Much damage
was done to property at jackson.

ming of this letter to make d few res
marks concerning certain rara avis.
"Tar Baby" that used your columns
not long since to heap criticism on
our good name, to doubt the veracitY
of your humble servant as to tue adj
vent of spring and in various ways
proceed to tread on the tail of our
jeans. Not being possessed of good
pair of tongs and with due respect
] for the above tried and true maXims
, we are going to exercise lots OF eau
ton in the handling of curt subject.
Asst, Tar Baby, presumed to think our
mental force would not sustain us
through the difficult task of another
letter we have courteousIy waited
two weeks to see if "T. B.' had wind
enough lett to come again. There Is
lot of speculation here as TO the ori~
gin of that little varmint. The most
plausible theory set forth is that it is
the result of the RepubIico- Populite
fusion in this district last fall. Spring
requests us to state to your many
readers that she is not occupying a
"martYr's tomb" as was predicted by
your sable correspondent, but was in
Chicago making arrangements for
the exhibition of the above mentions
ed "missing link" With it she ex-
poets to create big sensation In
scientific circles and to also make
complete the chain of Darwinian ev-
olution. We may be non compos as
"Tar Baby" suggests, but we are 60
ing to profit by "Brer Rabbits" sad
experience and not get stuck on it.
Easter was all that could be deA
sired, opening with bright skies and
warm balmy air, a perfect spring
morning, well suited for the festal
nature of the day and admirably
adapted for the beginning of the cos.
tunes of spring time. The ladies of
the vicinity had the church arrayed
in becoming holiday attire. Choice
collections of natural flowers covered
the organ and graced the pulpit.
Wreaths and festoons of evergreens
decked the windows and chandeliers.
An elaborate pr ogram of exercises by
the school children had been arranged.
A large and appreciative audience
was hell spell bound by their beauti-
full songs and recitadons. The exer-
cises were lovely indeed and reflect
ed great credit on the ladies and
children. Rev. VIM. Norment
preached very beautiful and inn
pressive sermon on the Resurrection.

ga dance is given at the Asylum
every Friday night" continued
Squire Harrell, land we were pres
ent last night. Alice Mitchell was
there and danced every dance and
did it we'll. She was never at loss
for partner but a young fellow
from Trenton, who paid her the
greatest degree of attention, danced
with her. He is also a patient, be-
ing a victim of epilepsy. but he does
not look it. Miss Mitchell is as plump
as partridge now and as rosy as the
morn. Her physical health is superb
and she is developed into an unusual
ly pretty girl. Her cheeks, which were
somewhat sunken and pale when she
was on trial here, have filled out and
her color is beautiful. Her spirits
are excellent In fact she seems to be
as happy as the day is long. The
patients are taken out for a walk
twice a day in good weather, but
Alice doesn't walk. She runs and
skips and jumps, but never gets down
to walk. She is perfectly tracta-
bic and talks intellIgentIy on all sub
jects that she will discuss, but has
nothing whatever to say about her
past. She won't talk of Memphis at
all; never mentions her family and
if anything is said about her former
home, she shuts up like an oyster.
esquire Hughey was introduced
TO her last night and she conversed
pleasantly Cntil he said something
about Memphis, then she became
as silent as the tnmb, and remained
so until her life at the asylum was
brought up again, upon which her
vivacity was restored as if by magic.
But notwithstanding her cheerfulness
the fact that she is mentally wrong
is very apparent to one who knows
her history, though | doubt if any
! thing strange would be noticed in her
demeanor by stranger.
