SOME RAMBLING THOUGHTS.
copyrighted by Dawe & Tabor. |
BY MEMO

Copyrighted by Dawe & Tabor
AS to Immortality: With all ami
mails we share our physical needs and
frailties;so that there is nothing out of
waste away by age or by disease. If
this mind remarkable though its pow
ers are based upou physical changes
within the substance of the brain, we
need to raise no serious protest if its
powers wane as we become aged. If
in the grave these hands and eyes,
these bones and mucles transform
into mere gases and compounds, SO
that in the place of the living being
there remains but few pinches of
dust, why should we shudder at the
thought? These, our elements were
gathered through the years from
earth and air and they have simply
returned to their own. But if this
personality, the EGO which makes
me differ from every other person,
and every other person differ from me
If this individuality that sits in
judgment somewhere within us, dar-
ing all things, hoping all things, meas
uring all things, if this soonest to an end
like the rest; if this, though noting
physical decay yet still soaring higher
and higher, undecaying and undecay-
ed, is only to be Knocked at the end
with sudden annihilation, then may
we well curse God and die. For then
are we mere experimental whims of a
tiend instead of nurtured and cherish
ed creatures of benign being.
4
What else can be true if death ends
all? The knowledge of oneself as a
being separate and individual, is a
very horror; for it only leads us up to
higher places in order to cast us down
headlong as soon as we have gained a
glimpse of broad, well-ordered uni
verse. Better not to have been, than
to attain glories that no animal ever
reached, and then have those glories
blotted out-as dark, unwholesome,
bewildering night blots out the day
There is no escaping the cruelty of
the thing, if annihilation is all that
remains after our noble curbings of
SELF after our deed of love, after our
sense of kinship with the good, after
our longing for fuller life and knowl-
edge. Look on a noble woman. Her
individual character squite independ-
ent of any functions that remain or
any functions that cease. She lives
to impress others, and to guide them,
whether her own or her neighbors.
Follow her onward through the years.
With enfeebled steps but with heart
enriched, she still does her unselfish
errands and plannings. Now comes
helplessness; but she is yet the same

CUBAN ASSEMBLY.
President Masso Says 1t Has Not Met
owing to Lack of Quorum.

Washington. Nov. president Mas
SO of the provisional Cuban government
has cabled from Santa Cruez Del Sur
to Senior Queseda, secretary of the Gu
ban delegation here, saying: Assem-
bly, has not yet met, owing to the alb
sence Of quorum"
This was called out by an inquiry
from Senior Queseda, as to reports com
ing by way of Santiago representing
the Cuban assembly in session at San
ia Creuz Del Sur, and engaged on inn
portant questions. There are evidences
that President Mckinley and his cabi-
Ret have assurances that the action of
the Cuban provisional government will
not be antagonistic to the policy al
Washington, but rather in execution OF
it,
Speaking of the Cuban assembly, Mr.
Queseda said. 1t is only the first
step toward a regular and constitution
al form of government, and it will give
way later to an assembly truly repre-
sentative of all the people of Cuba
President Masso has called together
this provisional body to provide for {
constitutional convention, which viii
take up the important work of estab
fishing a permanent government"
With this program in view, it il
hardly expected that the question O
annexing Cuba to the United States
will assume large proportions for thu
present, but will remain in abeyanc'
until the Cuban government is suffi
1 ciently well established to permit it t
express the wishes of the people o
! Cuba.

SUPREME COURT DECISION,
United States Bankruptcy Laws Super
seeded Insolvency Laws on July |.

Boston, Nov. 2.-The full bench of the
supreme court has handed down a de-
cision to the effect that all the insolv-
ency laws in the state were suspended
July of this year, and that the Uni
ed States bankruptcy laws supersedes
them on that day,
The court holds that the beginning of
insolvency proceedings was authorized
July /, the date of the passage of the
bankruptcy law. This decision will eff
feet many cases throughout the state
which were begun after that date. In
Suffolk county alone it will affect go.
The question of Ia right Of the insolv-
ency court to entertain petitions in in
solvency after that date has given rise
to much discussion and differences of
opinion among lawyers and the judges
of the insolvency courts for the differ
ent counties. The bankruptcy act con-
tains a peculiar ending, to the effect
that the act shall "go into force and
effect" at the time of it's passage, and
a provision that no voluntary petition
should be filed for a month afterward
and no involuntary petitions for four
months afterward
These apparently inconsistent state
ments gave rise to the enigma and diff
ferent constructions as to the time
when the bankruptcy law went into
operation have been made.
The case before the supreme court
was that of the Parmenter Manufac-
turing Company owners of brick yards
at East Brookfield, VS.. H. Warren
Hamilton ct al.
The plaintiff, corporation. was pro-
ceeded against by the defendants. who
filed an involuntary petition in insolv-
ency against it in Worcester county,
on Aug. / last. The insolvency court
passed a decree issuing a warrant in
insolvency against the plaintiffs es-
tate. Following that decree the plant
iff brought this bill in equity, asking
for a reversal of the insolvency decree,
claiming that after the time of the
passage of the bankruptcy act the in
solyency co=t had no jurisdiction in
insolvency matters. The question was
whether the bankruptcy law suppressed
ed the insolvency laws of this state re-
garding corporations from the time of
its passage.
The question was raised by demur-
rer filed by the defendant, which the
court oyerrules.
