the writ should be discharged"
That is the meat of the decision fill
ed by the supreme court this morning
in the habeas corpus case of George y.
Davis, committed last week by Cir
cult Judge Perry to ten days impris-
onment and a fine of $50 for contempt
of court.
The opinion is by Chief Justice Judd
and is concurred by by Justice Whit
ing and +. NJ. Hatch. sitting in place
of Justice Frear. The court educes
this general rule from the case: "A
circuit Judge acting by authority of
! law in a judicial capacity has the
right to punish for a contempt of
court. A fine for contempt of court
having been imposed and not paid,
the offender may be imprisoned until
it is paid"
In the decision, the court first re-
views the mittimuses and the petition
for habeas corpus. wherein it is claim
ed that Judge Perry, sitting as he was
in chambers, had not the power to
summarily adiudge the petitioner as
guilty of contempt, and that the first
sentence, the fine, was void on accoun;
of uncertainty. The court says:
1T is unnecessary to comment up
on the right of every superior court
of record to punish for contempt OF
its authority as inherent and essentia
to its existence and protection and tC
the due administration of justice, be
cause this power is limited by the
statutes of this country. (Here fol
low authorities).
The court from this point argues up
on the general line that Judge Perry
sitting to hear the exceptions of th
E petitioner, was acting under the au
: thority set forth in Section n of tn
, Act to Reorganize the Judiciary De
partment. that is, to allow and sigl
, the exceptions or refuse to do so. L
+ the discharge of such duties his au
:, thorty is not limited, whether presid
q ing at regular terms or at chambers

A LITTLE SUFFERER

Scrofulous humors - How . Cure
Was Effected.
"When Ave years old my little boy had
scrofula on his face, hands and arms. 1t
was worst on his chin, although the sores
on his cheeks and hands were very bad.
1t appeared In the form Of red pimples
which would tester, break open and run
and then scab over. After disappearing
they would break out again. They caused
intense itching and the little sufferer had
to be watched continually to keep him
from scratching the sores. We became
greatly alarmed ut his condition. My
wife's mother had had scrofula and the
only medicine which had helpd her was
Hoods Sarsaparilla. We decided to give
1t to our boy and we noted an improve
ment in his case very soon. After giving
him four bottles Of Hoods Sarsaparilla
the humor had all been driven out Of his
blood and 1t has never since returned"
