John P. Lindquist, of Harris,
Mimi, became violently insane
the other day at Minneapolis.
Mr.. Lindquist was devoutmem-
Der of the Luthern church and
recently became a member of the
Modern Woodmen society. Two
weeks ago he attended the ses-
sions of the Minnesota Luthern
conference atStillwater and while
there listened to the fiery denun-
citation of all secret societies pre-
ceeding the adoption of the rule
that no member of the Lutheran
church could hold membership
in any secret society. He brood
ed on the thought that he had
committed great sin by joining
the Woodmen and his mind gave
way. His hallucination is that
horned devils, who are members
of the Woodmen society, are pur-
suing him in order to pull his soul
out of his body with red hot
pincherS.

Elizabeth Watson, formerly a
Wichita girl, now of Terrytown,
N. Y, broke the record last week
by marrying an S-months old boy
named Barron. This was done
in order to save an $4,000 for
tune left her by will of an old
grandfather, which provided that
she was to marry within two
years the male heir of the family
or else the money was to go to a
charitable institution. The reg
ular male heir died in the mean
time, and the next male heir was
the 8-months'-old boy. The girl
is % years old and has the young
est husband on record, The
marriage will later be annulled by
the courts.-Kansas City Star.

The Ladies' Home Journal has
commissioned Ida S. Hoxie, the

She will proceed to St. Andreas-

reared every year, and spend
some time in the home of one of
the most successful breeders of
these peerless singers, gathering
material for the article.

The Supreme Court and Imperialism.

Two decisions of the supreme
court handed down on Monday
seemed at first glance to suggest
and have been regarded by many
as suggesting, the attitude of the
court toward Imperialism.
The first was a decision that
the war tax upon export bills of
lading is unconstitutional. But
there was no question but that
the bills of 1ading and the goods
they covered came from a partof
the United States which every
body admits is under the consti-
tuition. The second was an or
der recognizing Hawaii as under
the jurisdiction of the constitu-
ton. But Hawaii was specifical-
1y drawn under the constitution,
or recognized as being under the
constitution, by an act of con-
gress, signed by the president
on April 80, 1900, and going into
effect on June IA, 1900; and in
that act all Hawaiians who were
citizens of Hawaii on Aug. II,
1898, were recognized as citizens
of the United States.
In the cases involving imperial
ism the question which the SUI
preme court has to decide is the
contention of Mr.. Mckinley and
the imperialists that the Spanish
war acquisitions are without the
constitution and willremain with
out it and can be governed with
out it until congress shall extend
the constitution to them,
Senator Spooner, of Wisconsin
said a few weeks ago, "The SUI
preme court will not dare to up
set the government" and this
proposition, more courteously
stated, was a considerable part
of the Attorney Generals argu'
ment for Imperialism before the
court. In these recent decisions
the court did dispose of that con
tention. To the plea that its war
tax decision would involve dis
agreeable consequences the court
replied through Mr.. Justice
Brewer: SIT furnishes no reason
for not recognizing that which ii
in our judgment is the true con
struction of the constitution linn
itation."
In this there is a suggestion
that the supreme court might
possibly find the courage to up
set, should it see fit, the plans Of
Duty and Destiny and to deprive
Mr.. Mckinley of the opportunity
of showing his benevolence in the
arbitrary rule of upward of II
million human beings.-Nev
