for the white people of his State
ask the Senator if he believes that
the legislature would have presented
the scheme minus that sectiOn-sec-
ton 5, L think it is? No, Mr.. Presi-
dent; they presented this scheme of
suffrage as a whole, n part COM
p~ensating for another, that called
the fifth section ~mOderating the rigor
of the fourth section, 1 believe it is.
Mr.. R. D. Gilmer says:
1.-THE position taken by some Re
publican leaders that section 5 of the
proposed amendment will be declared
unconstitutional, leaving the re
mainder of the law, imposing an edu-
cational qualification intact, can
not, in my opinion, be sustained. The
amendment deals with one subject
alOne-that of regulating the right
of suffrage. 1t presents to the voter
a scheme involving an idea of unity.
Suppose an electOr in the election to
be held on this question, next Au-
gust, should deposit "a ballot "for
Constitutional Amendment except
Section five" such a ballot could not
be considered. He does not vote
upon any particular question, but
upon the amendment as a whole. He
votes either for or against. If the
voter could not at the ballOt-bOx re
ject one section, and adopt the re
manning sections by what process of
reasoning, or in obedience to what
sense of justice and right could any
court force upon him a law from
which one of the essential features,
one of the parts of a general whole
had been eliminated, making a differ
ent law from that which received his
endorsement at the ballOt-bOX. The
same indestructible unity in the pro-
visions of the law which confronted
the voter, must and will confront the
court. In the light of judicial inves-
tigatiOn, this amendment viii either
stand or fall as one Structure-and
that it will stand is my deliberate
Judgment"
Mr.. w. w. Kitchin says:
THE. amendment will stand or fall
as a whole. 1t is submitted to the
people as d whole. No man can vote
for one section and reject another.
Thus the courts must consider it, if
it ever reaches them. If it is I'M
constitutional the whole amendment
fails. If Il horse has one bad leg he
IS unsOund, though he may have
three good ones. So if one section is
bad the amendment is unsOund and
will fall. It's opponents can cite no
instance in which an amendment has
been sustained at all while unconSti-
tutional in a material part"
l am no lawyer, but from a careful
examination Of the opinions of more
than one lawyer on each side of this
question, I believe if "a majority vote
for the amendment it will stand.

JUDGE AND HIS DOG.
Am English Jurist's Love for AMI
mails Brings Him Into
Ridicule.

1t is learned from the English papers
that Baron Brampton, longer and more
Familiarity known as Sir Henry Hawk
ms, or as "Old AIRY 'Awkins"-as the
good people of London called him at
times-has just celebrated his eighty
third birthday. There is probably
none of Queen Victoria's judges, either
on the active or on the retired list, who
knows so much of the seamy side of
life as does Baron Brampton. He is
the hero of more stories than have
been told of any other occupant of the
judicial bench, living or dead. His con-
slant companion, and most devoted
friend, singularly restless and clever
little terrier, figures in many of these.
For instance, once when the nervous
little animal was dragging his veneer
able master violently along by its
leash, member of the criminal classes,
who knew both master and dog very
well, indeed, called out loudly: "Why,
Bill, don't go it so ard, the old 'un isn't
blindl" Lord Brampton's excessive
love for animals on another occasion
prompted him to interpose when
learned counsel had been talking aboNt
"evidence to hang a dog" and to ask
what would be sufficient evidence for
that purpose. "That, m lud," replied
the lawyer, with significance, would
depend very much on whom the dog
belonged tot"

AUTHOR MADE A HIT.
He Finally Brought His Novel to
q Close in Advance of His
First Purpose.

One of the most popular novels of
the day had a strange history which
might have been considered fatal to
It's success had it been considered in
advance. A New York author whose
books are always sure of a certain de-
gree of popularity finished all but the
last few chapters of novel. Try as
he might, it was impossible for him
to complete the story satisfactorily.
So he put the book away and for two
years it lay unfinished ON his desk, al
though the author thought of the
work from time to time without be-
ing able to get any nearer the solu-
ton of the plot, says the New York
Sun. ~'7
Finally he lost all hope of ever COM
pleting the work and decided to end
it at point several chapters in adj
vance of that at which he had ceased
to write. With this abrupt and unex-
pected ending the novel went to pub
Usher, was accepted and turned out
one of the most popular novels this
author has ever written. One of the
most praised features of the book is
it's unconventional ending, which is
said to be just explicit enough to sat
isfy everybody without going into ar
tistic detail. And the author was at
one time so discouraged about the end
ing of the book that he had almost
given up the idea of submitting it to
any publisher.

THE LovELIEST WOMAN.
Tnrgaret Fuller Would Have EN-
changed Her Intellect for Emily
MarshaIPs beauty.

Margaret Fuller once expressed the
willingness to exchange her fine intel
tect and all her accomplishments for
the beauty and attractiveness of EN-
lily Marshall (who had been her
schoolmate), writes William Perrine
of "The Loveliest Woman in All
America" in the Ladies' Home Jour
nal. "Miss Marshall stood before us a
reversion to that faultless type of
structure which artists have imagined
in the past and to that ideal loneliness
of disposition which poets have fancied
in the golden age" was the verdict of a
Boston gallant, one of the fair beauty's
neighbors, recorded in after life, when
his judgment was unprejudiced. Such
was the homage which the people of
Boston would sometimes bestow upon
Miss Marshall that one night when
Daniel Webster, then beginning his
career in the United States senate, Wis
tied the Federal Street theater the ap-
plause which the audience showered
upon him was not greater than the
cheers with which it welcomed the
ulFlhS EhliJ III w" - In SHN -" 'S~N
such a sensation that one morning ten
gentlemen at one time were seen in her
escort, and 60 left their cards for her.
When she went to such summer resorts
as Saratoga the crowds at the hotel
would form a lane through which she
might pass as they waited to view her
going to and from her coach, and tits
Philadelphia tradition that when she
visited that city one of the schools was
closed earlier than the usual hour to
give the young girls chance to see
the famous belle. Indeed, women
looked upon her with an admiration
which they seldom accord to beauties.

A tobacconist in South Fourth street
is the owner of one-eyed tom-cat,
which is an ice fend. The cats name is
Jerubbaal. He sits on his owners
doorstep every morning and waits for
the ice man, and when the latter puts
the customary cake of ice on the pave
ment, eparatory to opening the door,
the cat eagerly runs to pick up the lit
tie pieces which are generally Clipped
off The cat holes the ice in his
mouth until it dissolves. On occa-
sions the cat mews until BE owner
gets the pick and breaks OF some
pieces for him. Summer or winter
Jerubbaal must have mis- ice.

proved fatal. 1t came through his kid

stoop without great pain nor sit in
chair without being properly propped by
cushions. No remedy helped him until
he tried Electric Bitters which effected
such wonderful change that he writes
he feels like a new man. This marvellous
medicine cures backache and kidney

your health. Only SOC at j. NJ. Taylor's
