No. 2344 Equity.


NNHE OBJECT of this suit is to obtain
l. decree to remove Il cloud from the
title Of complainant to , and 64-1OOths
acres of land in Spaldngs District, this
county, purchased by him from the de-
PENDANT John ID. Broadus and wife and to
declare certain deeds from John ID.
Broadus and Pleasant Broadus and others
for said property Iull and void.
The bill in substance states that COM
planant purchased of John d. Broadus
and wife said property for the sum of $50
on September 2lst, 1895, received Il deed
for the same, executed by Broadus and
wife, and delivered To him. and that under
said deed he Immediately took possession
of said property, claiming it as his own.
That he delivered said deed for Record to
the Clerk December oath, 1898, and dis
covered that John ID. Broadus in the mean
time in fraud of compliments rights on
December 23rd, 1898, while complainant
was in possession, executed IA deed of said
property to Pleasant Broadus, the father
of said John, for the pretended sum of
500 which deed was placed on record
December 23rd 1898. That Pleasant
Broadus and wife, September 23rd, 1896,
conveyed said property to Thomas Nj.
Hawkins for the pretended sum of 500;
that said deed is not only fraud on COM
planant, but is totally defective Ill law.
The bill charges that the deeds from John
ID. Broadus to Pleasant b oadus and from
the latter and wife to Hawkins were made
to defraud complainant; that not only is
the consideration feigned, but Pleasant
Broadus and Thomas Hawkins each knew
of complainants right and possession, and
that complainant by his purchase, his en-
try into possession under III, deed, is en-.
titled to all the right, title and estate of
John D. BroaduS and wife at the time OF
his purchase, but that the deeds from j Ohm
ID. BroaduS to Pleasant Broadus and from
the latter and wife To Hawkins casts Il
cloud on his title which he is entitled To
have removed by decree of this Court,
declaring null and void above rccited
deeds, for which he prays, and FOR general
relief That Pleasant Broadus and wife
and Thomas NJ Hawkins and wifcare non
residents of thlS State.
1t is thcreupon this eth day of Feb
ruarv, 1897, adiudgcd md ordered that
complainant, 10y causing copy OF lhiS or
der to be inserted in some cwSparcr pub
liShed in Prince Georges county once IN

The name of John Sherman, Sccrc-
tary Of State, appears in attestation of
the proclamation calling an extra scs-
sion of Congress. The Cincinnati En-
quirer says: Mr.. Sherman has been in
public life so long that many people
have an impression that he is much
older in years than he really is. There
are frequent inquiries on the subject,
and it is worth the item to say that his
biography in the congressional Dircc-
tory shows that he was born on the
10th of May, 1923. He is therefore in
his seventy-fonrth year. TO man
who has not been in the habit of STAY
ing out o nj ghts. and who has not
gorged himself with supper and dis
tempering draughts," that is only a
comfortable age. Some of the Secre-
tary's active contemporaries are much

Justin s. Morrill,, of Vermont, has just
entered on a new term in the Senate in

meet in April. Colonel Henderson is
about fifty years old and for many years
has been active and influential in Florida
politics He is native of Georgia. but
since lie was ten wears cid has lived in this
State. During the reconstruction period
he was a recognized democratic leader in
the State Senate. He was defeated for
Congress by his republican opponent in
1874. In 1S,, he Vas appointed States
attorney and in 1891 was reappointed.
For many years he has been vicc-presi-
dent and general counsel of the Florida
Central and Peninsula Railroad He sue
ceeds Wilkinson Call as Senator.
Governor Lord, of Oregon, has appoint
ed H. W. Corbett United States Senator
to fill the vacancy caused hv the failure of
the legislature to elect ut its recent SEES
sion. Mr.. Corbctt represented Oregon in
the United States Senate from 1866 to 1872.
He is vice president of the First National
Bank of Portland, is a pronounced gold
standard advocate, is about siXtv-SiN years
old and has been resident of Oregon
more than thirty-tive years. In the Sena'e
he succeed John II. Mitchell.
1t is considered probable that the decd
ed opposition with which all efforts to
seat the Senators appointed by the Cover
nors of Kentucky and Oregon will be met
may have the effect of arousing opposition
also to the seating of Mr.. Henderson, APP
pointed by the Governor of Florida. Mr..
Henderson case is not at all similar to
the others. He is appointed because the
Legislature of the State will not meet to
elect successor to Senator Call until
April, while in the Kentucky and Oregon
cases the Legislatures after being in SEES
sion, failed to elect The republicans are
considering the advisablity of closing the
doors to Mr. Henderson, but as he will
have only Il few weeks to serve before the
Legislature will elect, it is not likely the
contention over the case will be either bit
ter or prolonged.

President Mckinley is seeking shell
ter under the protection Of the Civil
Service rules. He evidently does not
mean to allow himself to be worried to
any extent. The Philadelphia Times
thinks he has probably arrived already
at that stage of WEAKNESS from the i'm
portunities of the horde of clamorous
office-seekers who are daily besieging
him that he is ready to call down bless
ings on his predecessor for extending
the classified service so rs to leave very
few appointments open outside the post
Offices.
The posting of notices in the several
departments to tn. effect that nearly
all places are filled by civil service
methods is serving a double purpose.
1t is notice to the public that the civ
il service is to be enforced in spirit as
well rs in the letter, and it is a very
loud announcement to the army of of
fice-scekers who have been thrOnging
Washington since Inauguration day
that they are wasting their time to lit
tie purpose.
The Oficc-seckers will be loath to be-
leve that civil service methods have
come to stay, but the physical strain
put upon every new President 10y the
patriots who want the other rascals
turned out that they may be turned in
only insures more rigid and general
application of the competitive method
with each succeeding administration.
No matter how much of spokesman
at heart President may be, he soon
loses the power to be a spokesman at all.

Ex-senator Blackburn will attend the
extra session of the Kentucky legislature
that has been called to elect Senator and
will make a strong fight for his own re-
election, notwithstanding the republican
majority in that body. Nobody expects
the Senate to seat Major Wood, who has
been appointed to the vacancy by Cover
nor Bradley, and whether the gentlemen
appointed by the Governors of Florida
and Oregon will fare any better, remains
to be seen.
