ton, as alleged, Obear induced him to as
sign the note and mortgage, given by r. A.
Guthrie ct al, to Addie johnson, a sister
of Eager, who was understood to be the
agent for Mrs Bills 1t was alleged that this
transaction was irregular and that the note
and mortgage had been secured by fraud.
No consideration, at any rate, appeared to
have been given by Miss johnson, and Eager
claimed some interest in the note as secured.
This was only one side of the story. The
other side so modified the apparent condi

by Judge York to pay its own costs, and

News received by Secretary Long to-.
day from Admiral Sampson says that
he has his vessels SO placed, with scout
boats in every direction, that it is
hardly possible for the Spanish ad-
miral to elude him if he tries to reach
either the southern coast of Cuba or
attempts to double on his course and
reach the Atlantic by way of Martin.
ique and Porto Rico.
Swift scouts patrol the Caribbean sea
on the lookout for the enemy's ships.
Should they sail around the western

for Havana by the eastern end of the
island, by they Windward Pass there
is Admiral Sampson to intercept them.
Should they seek the southern coast of
Cuba, Santiago or. Cienfuegos, there
are the scouts to discover them and
notify Sampson.
The main purpose is to prevent the
enemy's fleet from reaching Havana.

They Must Pay.

The state supreme court sustains the
validity of the Anderson law taxing
railway lands. The upper court thereby
upholds the position of the lower court
as expressed by Judge Holland, OF
Brainerd. So far as Minnesota courts
and judges. theref fore, are concerned
the direct taxation of railway lands 10
valid and sound, the special exemptions
and alleged contracts of the railway
companies to the contrary notwitn-
standing.
1t also decides that Frank A. Day did
not cease to be a senator when he be-
came acting ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS, and
that his vote, which passed the Ander-
SOD law, was valid. 49,.
The following is the sillibus:
Flrst-The president pro tempore OF

ratification as required by the consti.
tuition.
Third-The existence of q public law,
whether it be in the form of statute
or a constitu tional amendment, is
fact of which courts must take judicial
notice. If, as in this case, its validity
depends on the fact. whether it was
ratified by a majority vote Of all the
electors voting at the election at which
it was submitted. the court will take
judicial notice of the number of ballots
cast at the election, and the number
cast for the law, and inform itself as
to such facts by resorting to the cleo
ton returns and records in the office OF
the secretary of state or in the Offices
OF the several county auditors, or by
any other means it deems safe and
proper.
| Fourth-Held that the law here in
question was adopted and ratified by a

the election at which it was submitted.
Fifth-The statutes of this state, en-.
acted subseq uently to the adoption of

Pay day in camp Ramsey was the
day the volunteers have all been look

full sights was the sight of captains

There has been great promises OF
what would would be done in camp
when the paymaster appeared. but
there was no signs of disorder yester.
day. This was perhaps due to the
fact that the enlisted men only had
about 81 coming to each of them, and
they could not pay their debts with
that and have much left oyer for
cele bration. There were signs of ex.
travagance, though. when a glance
was taken at the suffers tents. Men
