WAS VERY MERRY.

Gttifd.

The Entertainment Giren by Saint 1dnes
G,did.
II was a merry crowd OF bo OLD
and young people who met at the resi-
dence OF Bishop Brooke on Wednesday
evening last to witness an entertain
ment given by Saint Agnes guild.
First on the program was a chazAc-
ter sketch by Edna Sutton, and most
thoroughly did she arfre :iate and de-
hueate the character OF an old Dutch
frau. Her efforts were rewarded by
an enthusiastic encore, which she ac-
knowledged by giving negro sketen,
which met with hearty approval
Next came duet by Mrs and Miss
Grissell, which was much and deserv-
edly applauded
After f,w minutes interval came
the gem Of the evening, VIZ: The
Awakening Of Spring" and truly II
was u sweet picture that met the gaze
as the folding doors were drawn back
and disclosed TO view Il iith Grissell
(spring) bedecked with flowers, recliu-
ing, asleep on a couch. Spring awoSe
aud called upon her attendants,
nymphs, angels, flowers, dryads, rain
drops and zaphyrs, who appeared In
turn, dancing and singing, and speak
ing their parts with pleasing gestures,
and making the little play go with
smoothness and animation. All played
their parts well, but specially sweet
were little Ruby Kelly aud Mary
Brooke.
No greater praise can be given Miss
Edith Grissell than that she was
"spriug" to life Many thanks are
due 10 Mrs. Barde and Miss Mary
Nicholas for the trouble and pains
they took in getting mp and superin-
tending the entertainment. Good
luck to the little folks, and may it
have been as profitable an evening to
them as It was enjoyable to the spec
tators. Ice cream and cake in abund-
ance was partaken Of and afterwards
the young people courted the goddess
Terps icore until a late hour.

had the proof that they were soldiers been

had the PROOF tnat tney were soIuierS peen
adequate.
Budd v. Holden, % CAL, 1877. was a Bit
terly contested election case between two
candidates for judge In Mendocino county.
Amongst the numerous points raised was
that three persons in the civil employ OF the
United States from other counties were not
entitled to vote. The court decided that
these persons could show that they intended
to become a part of the community, and
could thus qualify or nullify the constitu-
tional provision against it. The decision
was delivered by Justice Sanderson. A
cogent and convincing dissent was entered
by Justice Shafter. In subsequent case
Dew, respondent, v. Anderson, appellant. 3S
Cal, p. 80, Justice Sanderson delivered the
opinion and reversed himself. That was a
case in which D., being a citizen Of New
York, enlisted in that state as soldier in
the service of the United States. He had
resided iN the state and in the county of
Mendocino the statutory period and sought
to register. The court held that he was not
entitled to register. Thus the force of the
Budd " Holden decision was weakened or
destroyed.
The last case is that of Stewart v. Kyser
los CAL, 459, decided by the present state
supreme court justices. Garoutte, McFar-
land and Van Fleet, being of the majority,
Justice Beatty dissenting.
This was a case in which county officer
to be elected had to count the votes of the
students at Napa college and Of the Vet
| erans' home in Napa county.
The court declared that the constitutional
provision prohibiting the gain of political
residence under these conditions required
a mere declaration by the voter of an in
tention to make the precinct his home to be
nullified, and they did nullify 1t and counted
the votes. The decision cites the case Of
Budd v. Holden as directly In point.
Nothing, however Is said about the subse-
quent case in 3S Cal. by the same Justice
Sanderson. Whether the Budd v. Holden
case was right or wrong 1t was not in point
with the Stewart v. Keyser case. In the
first the voters were in the civil employ of
the government, and had their families with
them, and, besides, the question was there
over an Interpretation of the words, ''by
reason Of their presence or absence while in
the service of the United States" In this
case Justice Sanderson thought that this
provision meant that man in the United
States service was not thereby affected in
his power to elect his political residence
anywhere. But in the case of Stewart ".
Kyser it was the votes Of persons who
gained their political residence while
kept at an almshouse or other asylum at
public expense" The conditions were en-
| tirely different. 1t is only fair to assume
that this case, not thoroughly presented,
| was decided under the heavy pressure of
work without sufficient care. The fact
that the chief Justice asked to have 1t re-
heard is an indication that such was the
case. The decision is unique in the hisory
Of American Jurisprudence.
