REPAIRS ON CAPITOL
Improvement Commission Must Spend
Many Thousands Of Dollars.

Improvement Commission Must Spend
Many Thousands Of Dollars.
DIES MONIES, IOWA-The capitol i'm
provement commission, which Is in ses-
sion, has found that the task Of doing the
work necessary to preserve the capitol will
be much greater than supposed. mo one
seems to have had any conception in what
a bad state of repair the capitol was until
the actual work Of repairing was begun
The commissioners appointed by Governor
Shaw to Investigate and report, overlooked
many defects and made no recommended
ton for an appropriation, consequently
the present commission will be obliged to
eXpend a good many thousands of dollars
The most serious discovery is the condi-
ton Of tho stone. Many of these seem to
be Literally rotting and breaking off in
many places about the exterior. Some of
the window lodges -. have cracked and
pieces have fallen from them. The COM
mission is experimenting on stone preserva-
tives to remedy this difficulty. Work on
repainting and repairs will be kept up
throughout the winter and early in the
spring, the building Of the warehouse,
the putting on of the new roof and a large
amount Of other betterments will be un-
dertaken. -. @t.r>s:-

ROMAN ARCHITECTURE,

In architecture the Romansh initiated the Greeks and initiated them without appreriating the simplicity of grandeur. They introduced circles and segments of circles in place of the simple, restful lines coursing horizontally around the building. They raised columns which supported nothing simply for the sake of ornament the dome behind the pedi- ment took away it's significance and removed from it the idea of pressure; they adopted the semi-circular arch, which broke the entablature and the idea of solidity and thus destroyed the fundamental idea of the Greek simplici- ty without substituting any of their own.
 When the Roman style was removed to Constantinople, the Byzantines rev. eled in arch and cupola, but without discerning the real object of the arch. The circular arch distributes the weight of the wall. They refused it for. the proper office, made 1t an ornament and concealed the real support of the weight; consequently in the Byzantine style we have the domes and c1,no1a e representing the weight with no visibIa support and arches multiplied at ca. price with nothing to support.

SAILBOAT CAPSIZED.

Professor DeLeon and Gustav Langner
 Upset Off Milford.
 A small sailboat containing Profess sor DeLeon of New York and Gustav Langner of Milford capsized Monday in the sound and almost resulted in the drowning of these two persons They managed to climb on top of the boat and were picked up by the tug R. D. Waterman of New London.
 A line was made fast to the capsized craft, but the force of the waves, as the tug strengthened out the line, soon broke in her bows and she went to pieces. When the two men. who were rescued were taken on board, they were dried out in the fire room, and as they were clothed only in under clothing and trousers, they were loaned shoes and clothing and landed in Jersey City, from where they came by train, reach ing home yesterday morning, none the worse for their trip.

BALLOON SHOT TO PIECES.
A. Charles Hillman Was Bal

Professor A. Charles Hillman Was Bal
 loon Expert in Spanish War.
 There have been balloon ascens:ons at savin Rock in previous years, but prob ably none can ever be compared to those that will be made tomorrow by Professor A. Charles Hillman, who ar rived in the city yesterday afternoon. Professor Hillman has long string of daring feats to his credit, principal among which are his experiences as a balloonist connected with the army in Cuba. While stationed at Buena Vista he had one balloon shot to pieces while in mid-air.
 Hillman has been in the papers a great deal during the past three weeks because of the accident to Miss Ward at HOag Lake. Miss Ward is the young woman who made the ascent on wag CT of box of candy and was seriously hurt by fall. It was Professor Hill mans balloon she made the ascent in, contrary to his advice.
 The aScentlonS IO-nOffOW Will De made at o'clock in the afternoon and at 9:30 at night. During the ascents fireworks of a special character for this work will be discharged by the aero- naut He will ascend between 5000 and 5000 feet and will perform hair-raising acrobatic feats, hanging by his teeth. leg and neck alternately. At the second pistol shot the parachute is cut loose from the balloon and for 300 or 400 feet the aeronaut will drop straight down ward, head first.
 None of the aeronauts heretofore making ascents have attempted the nu- merous feats of daring that Hillman does. and the ascensions promise to be most sensational.
 Hillman returned May from trip | to Scotland, where at Glasgow he won the Scottish medal in a balloon compe- tition. Here he ascended 12.000 feet and was lost to the view of the judges on the ground for period of six minutes

WAR POSSIBILITIES IN THE WEST

WAR POSSIBILITIEs IN THE WEST.
 The end of one war arouses curiosity as to where the next one will begin. The idea that 1t might begin in our own western states probably would not oc- cur to many people in this country; yet such a possibility is preached by two Boer captain of scouts, who have just written book called "The Mobile Boer." After noting the tremendous advantage which the modern rife gives to small bodies of men acting on the defensive, they go on to say:
 Five hundred desperate men, armed with rifles using the same ammunition
 as the government, placed in Colorado with two machine guns and led by men knowing such warfare and country, could cause the mobilization of the American army, form the inhabitants into posses terrorize the whole west, in- f1ict millions of dollars damage in life and railroad property and finally, if necessary escape over one of the bor- ders without capture to return when those slower moving states. with their more limited resources, pressed them.
 A force of men with price on their heads, or desperate from otherscauses, familiar with horses and campHife and in sufficient numbers to sweep by or capture an outpost, present possibilities far more formidable than the Apaches which the American government had so much trouble to suppress. This suppo- sition favoring of the dime novel is not presented by us without a knowledge of the territory suggested, and is worthy of contemplation to those who think that the Roer tactics are entirely &C., counted for by the inefF1ciency of the English generals Sun

APPEALED TO POLICE.
Non- Union Man Who Was Followed by
 Striker,

Non- Union Man Who Was Followed by
 Striker
 The first reported case of attempted intimidation of the men who have talk en the places of strikers at Sargent's factory occurred last night on the cor ner of State and Chapel streets. It seems that one of the non- union men was riding home from work in Fair Haven and Westville car and was be- ing followed by one of the strikers, who rode a wheel When the corner of State and Chapel was reached the striker rode up quite close to the car and said something to the non-union man. The latter resented the remark and jumped from the car onto the man on the wheel. This caused considerable commotion and the possessor of the wheel was somewhat shaken up and the machine twisted.
 At the same time the non-union man appealed to the policeman who was do- ing duty at the corner and asked him to cause the striker to desist following him. The policeman stated that he had no authority to stop the man from going wherever he desired. and that he could not grant the request The car contin- ued on it's journey up State street about this time, and the non-union man rush ed for it and rode away. The striker hurriedly picked himself up straight ened his wheel and started off on mad course after the car. He said it was his intention to follow the non-union man until he left the car, and even home, so that he might report it to the men in charge of the strike.
 The whole affair occupied less than five minutes, but quite crowd of citi- zens were attracted to the scene.

GOVERNMENT BY INJUNCTION.

GOVERNMENT BY INJUNCTION.
 Defending the tendency of courts of equity. especially of federal courts. to
 enlarge the operation of the writ of
 injunction, Judge James G. Jenkins of
 the United States circuit court of ap- peals, in a lecture before a Chicago law
 school a short time ago, said: "A great
 many people have become fearful that
 the government of this country is to b9 of injunction. Because that writ has
 been applied to certain matters which
 have affected the public generally, that
 fear has grown up, and yet the princi-
 pie which the courts have declared, and which they have sought to enforce, is
 as old as equity, is as certain as equity itself, is as clear in principle as any principle of the law, and is Gimply ap- piled to modern conditions, which have grown with the growth of the country. beyond all thought of the people when this writ of injunction was first issued.' Of course the most obvious and oldest objection to this extension of jurisdic- ton is the charge that it is subversive Of trial by jury and of the established lines of demarkatiOn between civil and criminal jurisdiction. But this view cannot be maintained in its generality since the decision by the supreme court l in the Debs case. The remarks of the Springfield Republican apropos of
 Judge Jenkins views are at least sug-
 gestive It observes: Equity is now
 successfully implored not only to enjoin acts clearly sanctioned by the legisla- l tive power, but to enforce from the 1 bench existing law which has been giv- en to the executive power to enforce; and assuredly it cannot be maintained | that it is an old and well-established
 principle of law that the judicial func- l tion may and should extend to the as- sumption of functions clearly belonging
 to the legislative and executive power. 1 It is obviously legislative function to
 make laws, and it is obviously an executive function to enforce the laws made, and it is obviously a judicial 1 function to judge Of what IS and what
 is not law, with equity power coming
 in to meet exceptional cases, involving
 rights of person and property, which 1 the lawmaking power could not and l cannot foresee or provide against by
 general rule. And when the judicial
 power is carried to the point of under taking to make new laws and to enforce
 old ones, as in the frequent cases of en- | joining acts sanctioned directly or indi~ rectly by the legislative power, and en- | joinings acts which are covered by ex- l isting law, we obviously have taking
 over of both legislative and executive 1 functions by the judiciary-and to an l extent rather disturbing to contem- plate. And according to Montesquieu,
 agreed to by Hamilton. there is no lib-
 erty if the power of judging be not | separated from the legislative and
 executive powers Judge Jenkins old
 principle of law is in fact just as new
 as the admittedly new conditions by
 which he justifies Its application. l From Law Notes.

SET BROKEN LEG BY TELE-
 GRAPH

In connection with the cession of the postal and telegraphic services from the States to the commonwealth, a curious discovery has been made. For many years it has been the practice in the remote parts of South Australia, when people felt indisposed, to telegraph their symptoms to some Adelaide doctr, who wired back prescription. Every country post-office was supplied by 8 paternal government with medicine chest, and there the telegraphed pre- scriptions were made up by the post master But the federal postmaster general thinks the system open to abuse, and has ordered the postmasters to do no more dispensing. It certainly does look risky, at first sight, but the fact that no one has ever heard of any body being killed by a postoffice pre- scription argues that it has worked pretty we'll in the past. One leading Adelaide surgeon proudly boasts that he has set broken legs by telegraph London Chronicle.
