An oxford EpIarammatIst.

The grave has lately closed over the
Rev. r. Bartlett. who was formerly
said by hiu friends to be the most
popular man in Oxford. and who was
certainly both genial and witty. The
most original OF his sallies was a shit
on the condign punishment Of an un-
dergraduate who. after drinking too
freely, had knocked down the college
porter
why was his time, already short.
cut prcmaturely shorter?
Because al nrst he hoored the port.
And then he hoored the porter.
Professor Conington said that 1t was
Bartlett who invented the word
"souarson"-that now fa~1ous equiva-
lent for what in Suffolk Is called a
black squire" The manufacture of
this "portmanteau-word," as Lewis
Carroll would. have termed II, is com
monty aseribed to Bishop Samuel VIII
berforce. The Bishop is reported TO
have playfully styled himself a "squis-
hop" and this may have led TO the
conjecture that "squarson" was also
invented by London Spectator.

Beer keas Of Old steel Rails.


A Joliet, ILL.,, inventor believes that
a process Of making beer kegs out Of
old steel rails is to make him wealthy.
In his valise this inventor carries .
small model beer kes made out OF pol
ished steel, which he says will within
a few years do away with the old and
cumbersome wooden kegs entirely.
The steel is only one-sixteenth of an
inch thick and the kegs weighs but q
few pounds. Its inventor claims that
1t will stand three times more pres.
sure than wooden keg and that 1t
can be made for one-third the price
Of the latter.
The keg is made in two pieces. the
Joint being hidden by steel band.
The bunghoie is Theoretically sealed
by patent contrivance which re.
quires key to unlock It, The hole is
graduated TO fit any size OF spigot.
Any kind of steel Is used in its corr
struction, but the inventor is, nos
using old steel rails. The interior Of
the keg is covered with pitch prep
aration used In wooden kegs to keep
the beer from tasting Of the metal.

WHY THE SUPREME COURT
INTERFERED.

The supreme court this week
explains why it took original
jurisdiction in the suit instituted
by the governor and attorney
general to prevent the whole
sale theft of the election by the
Big Nit, Of Denver. This opin-
ion was handed down by Chief
Justice Gabbert.
On it being shown conclusively
to the court that unless it inter-
vened, all other avenues having
been closed through partisan
action, the election in Denver
would be a huge farce, the su-
preme court took jurisdiction and
issued an injunction against the
violation Of the law by the pub
lie officers Of city and state and
by election officials. No better
reason could be given for the
action Of the highest court of
the state and there are few of
any political faith who do not
believe that conditions in Denver
warranted the action. Things
had. come to such a pass in the
capitol city of this state that
majo1ities were made and practi-
cally decided upon previous to
election day.

A GOVERNORS POWERS.

The opinions of eminent coun-
sci touching the powers of a
governor in the use of the militia
are interesting, and may, in a
sense, be called important. They
do not, however, express any
other conclusion than the one
which it could be foreseen they
must reach. A situation is not
without an element of humor in
which a governor, for the pur-
pose of having his official power
declared, calls upon eminent
lawyers who announce, with all
due gravity, that the governor
has all the power he has claimed
and which they might add with
out doing violence either to the
humor or the facts in the case,
nobody has ever disputed.
The power of governor tc
order out the military power of
state, without being under the
necessity of awaiting a call for
their employment, either from
a sheriff of a county, mayor OF
a municipality or any other civil
officer, is so well established,
recognized and understood tha'
it falls little short of farcical t.
make its existence the subject
of an expert professional opinion
at this late day. Such a power
exists in the nature of things ant
is of the essence of state sov.
ereignty. The constitution o.
practically every state in th'
Union is the same in vesting tn
governor with power to move
the militia into any part o
the state, where, in his opinion,
conditions exist which warrant
their use.
The governor has large power
outside of this one of the contrc
of the militia, which he should
exhaust before resorting to armed
force. The powers Of a governo
of a state are almost absolute il

existing or threatened condition

jusisdiction of which he is tn

1t must be conceded that one of the
best character studies that clever
Ed. Redmond has yet presented was
greatly enjoyed by a splendid house
last evening. AS Cyrus Blenweim,"
the old potterer who acknowledges
no defeat and in the cace Of his many
bitter failures begins the struggle
again and again, Mr.. Redmond was
certainly superb. 1t is more than
mere ability shown in mis- characteri
zation-it is genius. He is admired
as the heroic "Davy Crockett" and
the eccentric Mr. Meekman," but
the memory of Cyrus Blenkeim"
will afford general pleasure.
Tonight this clever play will re-
ceive it's final production. AS it is
holiday night a large house is as
sured, and all who visit the theater
cannot but enjoy one of the most
entertaining plays ever presented in
this city.
On Friday night there will be
complete change Of bill. "a Virginia
Romance" will be the play offered,
and after the final act the much ad-
vertised drawing will take place This
time Manager Redmond will present
horse to the holder of the lucky
coupon.
The usual family matinee will be
given Saturday afternoon and for the
Saturday evening performance "A
Chicago Tramp will be offered.
..The Slaves of Russia is underlin-

Governor Mead has notified Colonel
Howard Hathaway of Everett, coun-
sci for Angus McPhail, that he has
refused the application for a commu-
tation of the sentence of McPhail
from death to life Imprisonment.
McPhail is now in the penitentiary
under sentence to be executed De-

signed by Is lawyers, SO business
men, five newspaper men, nine Of the

ture and numerous others on the

was also urged vigorously on behalf
of McPnail that he is really insane.
Governor Mead in his notification to
Colonel Hathaway says that while
the numerous petitioners urge that
the ends of justice would be best
served by a Communication to life i'm
prisonment, the court and the jury
gave their verdict directly to the con-
trary, and that the subsequent sign
ing of a petition by nine of the jurors
can hardly offset their verdict under
oath The governor points out that
it is shown by the record in the case
that the question Of sanity was put
up on the trial, and the judgment of
the court and jury was that the man
was sane; that afterward an inves-
tigation was conducted at the instance
of the presiding judge, which investi-
cation also decided that McPhail was
sane.
Since then the governor mas had
McPhail under close observation at
the pententiary and is in receipt of
reports from Superintendent A. F.
KEGS, Chaplain John La Cornu, who
has visited and talked to McPhail oft
en-: Turnkey J. w. Mackay, who gives
McPhail his meals and talks with him
frequently, and J c. Mack, prison
physician, who has made a careful ex-
