EtitutiOnaL -r-4,-.-.----- 1850.
ST. LOUIS, Aug. 1S-Judge Klein
yesterday decided that the act pro
viding for the endowment of the state
university is legal. The decision was
rendered in the case of the st Louis 81
San Francisco Railroad Co. against
Lon V. Stephens, a suit to recover
S12, 900 paid under the act, in order to
secure a certificate of Incorporation
from the secretary of state, Stephens
was state treasurer at the time. Suit was
brought against him personally on the
theory that, although he received the
money as treasurer, he was liable per-
sonally because he had no legal right
to receive it. The counsel of the rail-
road company urged that the act of
the general assembly providing for
the endowment of the state university
was in contravention with the pro-
vision of the constitution. Judge
Klein held that this contention did not
appear to be sound, and cited a num-
Der of decisions to show the power of
st ate legislatures to make provision
for the exigencies of the state. In con-
clusion, Judge Klein said that courts
were never justified in declaring an
act of the general assembly uncOnsti-
tional unless it was beyond reason
able doubt.

this little city Sunday evening. Six
people are known to have been killed,
while many others were injured. Build

Several business houses were com.
pletely demolished and many resi-
dences suffered severely, that of DR..
Barraclaugh being carried across the
street. From early morning the sky
was threatening and a stiff gale blew.
No rain of consequence fell until p.
m, and then it was accompanied by a
neavy wind that increased in intensity
until it reached the great velocity of Sc
miles an hour. Every building in the
town is of frame construction, exce2

how much romance was in after years
to attach to the story of the fight, they
might have kept the old ship in re-
pair, as Admiral Nelson's old Victory
has been preserved. The Chesapeake
was sent to England, where she must
have been the object of great interest;
but in 1920 she, too, was taken to
pieces. This was probably done in the
harbor of Southampton, for her tim
bers were sold to one John Prior, the
owner of -four mill in the little town
of Wickham, near Southampton. He
pulled down his mill, and used the great
beams of the American frigate in build
ing new one. The great deck tim
bers, 80 feet long and 1s inches square,
served for floor beams in the mill, and
the smaller ones for uprights, all with
out being cut or altered in any way
Of course many of them were full OF

Building Made from the Timbers OF .
Famous Battle ship.
In st. Nicholas there is an article
on The Chesapeake MILL" by William
Abbatt, accompanied by picture of
the interesting old building, probably
the first one ever printed. Mr.. Abbatt
says:
If there is naval fight in our history
about which every schoolboy ought to
! know-to use an expression of which
historians are rather fond-it is the sea
fight between the man of war Chesa-
peake and the British Shannon, off
Boston harbor, on the 1st Of June, 1873.
1t has been so often told that / will not
tell it over again except in the brief
est way. The Chesapeake was cap
tured, chiefly or altogether through
the mutinous conduct of part of her
crew, who refused to work the cannon
on her lower deck at all. Capt. Law
renee and Lieut.. Ludlow were killed,
or, to be exact, the captain died of his
wounds four days after the loss of his
ship, and the Shannon took her prize
into the harbor Of Halifax, where her
arrival caused the greatest rejoicing.
The dying words of Lawrence, as he
was carried from the deck, Don't give
up the shipl" have been familiar to our
boys and girls for more than 80 years
1t is these words that make the com
bat most memorable. They are good
motto in every trouble of life. Don't
give up the ship-don't despair, lose
heart, surrender, but take courage, and
like Gen. Grant, Eight it out on this
line if it takes all summer"
With the Chesapeake's entrance into
Halifax harbor all trace of her disap

years after the war of 1912 was over

that the Shannon was useless, and had

THEY ASK FOR TRooPs.

Operators In the HAzleton District Re
quest that Militia be Sent to Guard Their
Mines Funeral of the Slaughtered
Strikers.
Hazleton, Pa, Sept 14-The situa-
tion was ominous yesterday. The
troops were SO assigned as to cover
every territory where there was pros
pect of trouble. During Sunday night
the street in the front and rear of
brigade headquarters at the Valley
hotel was guarded by sentries and no
person was permitted to pass the lines.
All the liquor saloons were closed until
4 p. IN, This was done because Of the
funerals of twelve victims and the
fear Of what might follow If the strik-
ers had access to liquor. The funerals
were conducted without, amy trouble
arising.
Trouble has broken out at Coke
Bros colliery at Eckley. Two hum
dred miners at Buck Mountain, which
is about three miles from Eckley,
went on strike Monday morning and
Istarted toward the Eclxley mine. The
superintendent Of the Eckley colliery
telegraphed to Gen. Goblin for troops,
but later in the day the request was
withdrawn, the superintendent noti-
flying the general that the strikers had
stopped marching. At p. IN. Gen.
Goblin received another telegram, stat
ing that these miners had again assem-
bled; had marched on the Eckley
mines and forced the miners to quiz
work. 1t was stated that the miners
had been roughly handled by the
strikers. Gen. Goblin has ordered the
City troop, of Philadelphia, to go tC
the scene of the disturbance.
Eckley is small mining village
There are number of collieries there
and fears have been entertain d fol
the past 48 hours that trouble woul(
break out, as the men had been acting
very ugly. The situation in the Halle
ton district is one of unrest. All the
collieries in this district are apprehen
sive of danger. Requests have beer
pouring in to Gen. Goblin from the va
rious mines asking that he send troops
to these places in order to prevent any
possible outbreak. Goblin says that ht
will not send troops to any point unless
an outbreak does occur. This genera
declines to give the names of the col
lieries, as all the men in them are still
at work. The operators, however, ar'
apprehensive of strike and want t,
be prepared for any emergency. TIVE
mine superintendents in this immedi
ate vicinity asked for guards arounC
their houses and the request wa
granted.

of this education in architecture. Ex-

have the appearance of the welcome

that sit costs no more to build beau

The houses more than the people
give the general aspect to a locality.
The buildings are the larger fnhab-
itants, and they impress you more.
They possess great individuality and
strong physiognomy. How striking is
the expression of gloom or gayety, bold
ness or bashfulness, which they give!
Wherever you may live you are on good
terms with some of the houses you have
to face daily, and with others you are
on ill terms. Certain houses you like at
first sight, while others never gain your
favor or friendship.
The improved taste displayed in
house building during the past few
years has served to educate the people
to appreciate better work. No matter
how small the structure may be, the
owner will strive to embellish the de-
sign as much as his pocketbook will al
low, and will sometimes even sacrifice
space for the sake of appearances. On
