Aqusstion OF considerable practical impor-
lance In the law OF marine insurance has re-
Gently been determin led by the Supreme Judi
clal Court OF Massachusetts. 1t involved the
construction OF what Is called the America
clause in marine insurance policies. the third
part OF which reads as follows: other insur-
ance upon the premises Aforesaid. Of date the
same day as this instrument. shall be deemed
simultaneous herewith. and the said company
shall not DO liable for more than ratable con-
tribution In the proportion OF the sum by them
insured. to the aggregate OF such sImutane ous
insurance" Two policies were issued on diff
ferent DAYS. but they were. by their terms. to
become operative at noon on the same day In
the future. The Court holds that these policies
cannot be deemed Simultaneous within the
meaning Of the clause quoted. 20 as to render
each insurer only proportioually liable for the
loss. In order to ascertain what insurance
shall be sim ultaneous. tho parties were at lib
erty to * the date at such time as they saw At.
and they have fixed it by reference to the day
OF the execution Of the policies" The clause
Is said to have boon adopted to avoid the effect
OF some early decisions In this country hold
ing that. where two policies were executed on
the same day. 1t was necessary to determine
which was actually executed first.

The Supreme Court OF Michigan. on Tuesday.
handed down decision declaring that Mrs.
Merrie Hoover Abbott. VINO received a majority
OF the votes for Prosecuting Attorney OF Oge-
NAV county last year. was not eligible to that
office under the State Constitution. majority
Of the Judges are OF the opinion that woman
cannot hold public office. In the absence OF an
express provision In the Constitution. or in
some statute permitting her to do so. Women
are not authorized TO vote In Michigan. and the
general rule 10 stated to be that person must
be an elsctor to have the capacity to hold office.
Some doubt on this point is intimated BY Chief
Justice Cooley in his celebrated treatise on
constitutional limitations. where he says:
Where neither b Constitution nor by statute
are the gu ALLEGATIONS for Office prescribed. any
one Is eligible who possesses the elective fran
chise Whether the converse is true-that one
not an eector cannot hold office-in the absence
Of written law on the subject is possibly open
| to question" The author adds. however. that In
Wisconsin II has been decided that only an cleo
tor can hold office: and says that this Is prob
ably the general understanding.

In 1897 an investigation was begun into the
financial affairs OF the town Of Hempstead in
Queen0 county under the General Municipal
law OF this State which empowers q Justice OF
the Supreme Court to appoint experts to make
summary inquiry OF this sort upon the sppl-
cation OF twenty Ave ireeholders OF tho town
snip. Tho result was q report which declared
that many expenditures unauthorized by law
had been made or allowed by the town officers
or some OF them. This report was confirmed
by a Supreme Court Judge and then went be-
fore tho Appellate Division in Brooklyn. where
It was modified in several important respects.
but for the most part affirmed. In tho opinion
Of that tribunal. written by Mr.. Justice Hatch.
the purpose OF the statute authorizing the in
vestigation was declai ell to be twotold: l) to
prevent present or future illegal appropria-
ton OF the public moneys: and ~ to deter
mine the financial condition OF the town and
adjudcate what charges made by town boards
are proper and what charges are improper. The
order Of the Appellate Division In the matter
was affirmed by the Court OF Appeals on Tues

Silver Peak Mines Sale.

as follows on the recent sale OF the Sill
yer Peak, Esmeralda mines for 500
600:
THE effect Of this sale will be to take
the title to these great mines from the
Silver Peak Mining Co. and transfer 1t
to John I. Blair individually. The
ownership CT the mines is practically
unchanged, as Mr.. Blair was the prin-
cipal stockholder in the old company.
What is to be done with the prop
erty is unknown. The reports recently
published that the mines have been
sold to an English syndicate for one
million dollars is without foundation in
fact"

a way of using one of the main streets

When Dolly Is Ill.

An odd branch of doll service is tend
ing the pet in sickness. Dolls appear to
be subject to all the complaints of their
young nurses. They are physicked. too
by the familiar nursery methods
The realistic impulse to detect some
thing like the poorly" look in the doll
is illustrated by the diagnosis of leprosy
in the case of a doll from whom t'the
paint was fecking Off . If all the paint
comes off and the doll takes on pitiful
pallor, there is a fine opportunity for
the child's healing art In one instance
the appearance Of measles was induced
by the help of a red lead pencil. In an
other instance. when a doll was con-
valescent after fever. the "pretense'
was supported by deliberately pulling
out the hair Fractures of limb or skull
and slighter injuries leading to loss Of
the vital sustaining sawdust have. of
course. to be treated surgically.
Doll surgery. however. to judge by
the number of manned and deformed
figures which are to be found in doll
land. would seem to be by no means
universal among children. Professor

Machine and Rapid Fire Guns.

Machine guns are mechanically load
ed with fixed ammunition and the car
tridges are exploded and extracted by
arrangements that enable number of
rounds to be fired in rapid succession
by one man. The ordinary machine gun
of the Maxim or Nordenfeldt type can
fire from 800 to 700 rounds minute of
infantry ammunition. but for naval
and fortress purposes heavier type is
made to discharge projectiles not ex-
ceeding IA ounces in weight.
The term "quick firing is applied to
artillery weapons of all sizes which are
so constructed and mounted that they
can be loaded, sighted and fred more
rapidly than in the case of an ordinary
gun. Unlike machine guns, they are
loaded by hand. but possess in common
the characteristic Of little or no recoil
All newly constructed guns are of
quick firing type. and the term will be-
fore long become obsolete. By the most
recent arrangements for rapidity OF
loading and absorption of recoil the de-
structive power Of artillery has been
more than doubled.

men always have an air Of recent be-
reavement which Irisieads the ordinary
mind At railway station in this state
not long ago a tall woman rcbed IN
deep black, accompanied by a young
woman in colcred garb, sat waiting for
a train. The station matron hovered III
the vicinity, evidently with something
on her mind, and finally beckoned to the
young woman, who went to see what
was wanted.
.'Has she got corpse with herr the
station matron asked.
'.Corpse?'' the young woman ex-
claimed, looking over her shoulder in
ghastly fright Who's got corpse
with her? What do you mean?''
Don't be scared, lady" the matron
exclaimed. Most of 'em that travels
in deep mournin has corpses on the
train 1 just wanted to know if your
lady had corpse with her,
Goodness, no'' said the young wo-
man. ''Her husbands been dead so
years You ought to be ashamed to
shock people that way. Don't you ever
treat me that way again. %
The station matron looked disap-
pointed, and the young woman went
back and sat down without even feel
ing at liberty to tell the lady in black
what had happened. = Indianapolis
