whites and In resisting the wild tribes

most constant turmoil He had come
from the east, and was accompanied
by his wife. She was a fine horseback
rider and enjoyed outdoor life, often
riding out with her husband on the
prairies around Fort Gibson, engag-

THE LOVING DEAD.

We hold our sacred dead aloof
We put them by like treasures old.
No more for them hearth or roof
But narrow dwellings lone and cold
The dear, warm hearts that fell asleep!
Why shun them in our secret thought.
Why even at distance keep
AS II some change were In them wrought
They cease not from their constant love-
They are not strange and far away;
Their presences about us move
Closer than presences of clay
How 1t must grieve them, when they come
Heart-cose, and find no welcome there!
Or whisper love- and find us dumb
Forgetful. hedged with servle carel
On, let us hold our dear ones close
Closer and closer when they move
Beyond the veil! For no one knows
The precousness of human love

Important Decision in Her Fight for =
Share OF the DmsmuIr Millions.

snare OF the Dun8WulF millotA'
SAN Francisco, March 77.-Edna Walla %
Hopper. the actress, has won her first VIC
tory in her fight for a share Of the millions
left by Alexander Dunsmuir. her step
father. Judge Cofey declared void to-
day the proceedings taken in his court In
May. 1900, because the original will was
not fled here. Instead II was carried
to Victoria, B. c., by James Dunsmuir
brother and sole devisee. Now the original
will must be filed in San Francisco county
and probated under the laws Of California
This means that IL can be contested here.
The brother had thought himself In Sc
cure possession Of the vast estate and the
decision means a great disappointment
for him. Never before has such radical
action been taken in a California court.
Judge Cofiey has thrown out all the nicely
executed papers drawn up TO carry out
James Dunsmuir's plan 10 get possession
Of the Dunsmuir estate by fling the ortgi-
nal will IN Victoria. where II waA not neoes-
sary 10 give notice or have the will proved
by the subscribing witness, and then In

Judge Coffey rendered q lengthy opinion,
dwelling particularly on the lack OF preo-
edents He said the ruling would doubt
less make Il possible for other estates in
yolyinR millions Of dollars worth Of property
10 be brought into litigation on the same
grounds. The Judge held that Dunsmuir's
own declaration In his will that he was
a resident Of San Francisco county fixed
his domicile hero beyond any argument.

WASHINGTON, March 27.-The question
OF the right OF the President to appoint
men to Of1oss not specifically provided for
by Congress has been submitted to the
Attorney General for an opinion, The
result IL awaited with good deal Of interest
by many Senators and members Of Con-
gress, who believe that the President ex-
oeeded his constitutional powers in appoint
ing a commission Of FIVE persons, at SO a
day each and ira velling expenses, to deter
mine the location Of the proposed Federal
building in Washington.
It Ia probable that the status Of certain
Officers who were appointed by the Presi-
dent for duties not contemplated or pro-
vided for by Congress depends on the
forthcoming opinion Of the Attomey-Gen-
eral II Mr.. Moody should decide that the
President has no authority to appoint
officers without specific provision Of Con-
