aud rs authorized by law.
In section 81, article five Of the con-
stitution, which provides that vacancies
in the elective offices provided for in
this article Judiciary shall be filled by
appointment until the next general
election" etc., the expression, "next
general election" means the next elec-
ton at which it is provided by law that
the officer may be elected whose off, @
has become vacant.
In November, 1892, when the general
election was held, there was no law,
constitutional or statutory, authorizing
the election of circuit Judge, either for
full term, or for fractional term.
Until such a law is passed there can
he no election of supreme or circuit
judges under section 20, article FIVE, of
the constitution, providing that The
judges of the supreme. circuit and coun-
ty courts shall be chosen at the first
election held under the provisions of
this constitution and thereafter as pro-
vided by law.
The governor having appointed re-
spondent to the Office Of circuit Judge of
the seventh Judicial circuit to fill a
vacancy in said Office, such appointment
constitutes good title to such Office
until the legislature provides by law for
the election of his successor.

Judge VIM. Gardner has been holding
court at Dead wood this week, and that
the average Deadwoodite is favorably
impressed with the Judges methods Of
doing business, is quite evident from
the following, which we clip from the
Times: "The adjourned February term
of the circnit court was opened yester-
day morning by Judge William Gard
ner, the efficient and wide awake Judge
Of the Seventh circuit, who will hold a
three weeks session. Though very
young man to hold the sponsible posi-
tion Of circuit judge, there is no better
posted man in the state. lie is quick
but not injudicious. firm but not domi-
neering, is clear headed and constantly
attending to business. During progress
Of trial his attention is steadfast and
in consequence his rulings are made
promptly and justly. HIS charge to the
jury yesterday in the Brillioa case was
brief, concise and comprehensive. He
proposed to convene court at nine
o'clock sharp, which was, however, OBJ
jected TO by the members of The bar
The Times predicts that during Judge
Gardner's brief sojourn he will dispose
vi great many cases ia a manner
satisfactory 10 ali concerned"

In commenting on the work OF the
legislature ofthis state, the Deadwood
Pioneer of a recent date, improves the
opportunity TO make a slurring remark
concerning the Custer county members,
Senator Thornby and Representative
Scanlan. The truth is. both Of the men
have made records Of which their con-
s.ituents may be proud. Early in the
session Thornby took his place among
the leading men in the senate, and ever
since has been recognized as one of
them. Scanlan. in the lower house, has
won the respect Of his associates, and
has been generally looked upon as a
faithful. energetic and level-headed
legislator. Tho Pioneer is just as we'll
aware of this as anyone else, and be.
cause of that fact, its uncslled for attack
appears all the more ridiculous. Its too
bad that Deadwood gnlch is not large
enough TO contain the Pioneers spleen.

Bomb Explosion Confirmed.

PARIS, Dec. "a report that a
bomb was exploded this afternoon
in the chamber of deputies is con-
firmed. 1t appears that the Cham
Der was in session, and suddenly
from the right gallery bomb was
thrown or fell in the midst Of the
deputies, causing a loud ex-
plOsion and a scene of great
est confusion. 1t is impOssi-
BILE to get the exact details
of the explosion at present, as the
police Immediately closed all the
doors of the Chamber of Deputies,
and refused to allow anybody to
pass in or out until the investiga-
ton is concluded. The explosion,
and the conflicting reports in cir
culation, have caused the greatest
excitement throughout Paris this
afternoon, and the full details are
anxiously awaited.
The bomb was thrown at 4
O'Clock, exactly. Its explosion
caused the ladies in the gallery,
which was we'll filled, to fly
shrieking from the spot. M. Burton
Trabeud, a newspaper man who
was on the floor of the Chambers,
was badly wounded in the fore
head. 1t is believed that a num-
Der of deputies were wounded.
Among the injured deputies men,
toned as being seriously wounded,
is NJ. Dumos, deputy from Allier.
The bomb seemed to be filled with
shot or slug, and when it eX-
ploded these missiles were
thrown with the greatest force in
all directions, reaching even as
high as the galleries. The police
have made several arrests from
among the people who were in the
galleries of the Chambers Of Depu-
ties at the time of the explosion.
One of the persons arrested, is
said to have been the one
who threw the bomb. Full partic-
ulars regarding the explosion are
still unobtainable, as this dispatch
is sent. The President of the
Chamber of Deputies, NJ. Dupuy,
is reported to have acted with the
most admirable GOODNESS and cOur-
age, and to have done everything
possible to restore order, and to
prevent a spread of the panic,
which seized upon everybody pres
ent when the explosion took place.

OFFERED HIM A JOB
As Adiutant in the Brazilian Army

As Adjutant in the Brazilian Army.
MEMPHIS, Tenn, Dec. Capt.
Kellar Anderson, of Coal Creek
fame, has been offered an impor-
tant command in the Brazilian
army, by President Piexto. Capt.
Anderson declines to state any
thing for publication, but it is
said, the position offered him,
is that of adjutant general.
He is a veteran of the late war,
having enlisted as private in a
Kentucky regiment, and coming
out as captain. About three years
ago he commanded the state troops
at Coal Creek, East Tennessee, dur
ing the miners troubles, and his
defence of the Fort for over two
weeks caused his capture by the
miners. His GOODNESS and bravery
when captured, by treachery and
thr eatened with death, if he did
not surrender to the fort, have been
published extensively in the news
papers here and abroad. 1t is sup
posed that the Coal Creek episode
brought Captain Anderson to the
notice of the Brazilian officers.

have his supporters in caucus re-
fuse to abide by it's decision, and
vote for Lee in the Legislature
when the electionlcomes up. Sever
al days are yet to elapse before
this election takes place and their
plan, as one of them put it today
is to build fires under all men,

dict. They will do this by appeal
ing to the constituents of the Demo
cratic members, and they think that
if they can get thirty or forty OF
those who voted for Lee in the
caucus, to bolt, they can still in
sure his election, by turning a
number of those who voted fol-
Martin, to the support of Lee, and
by getting the full Populist and
Republican vote of the Legislature
and thus secure a majority Of the
