from Cuba through the energetic application of
what previously had been only theories Dr
Finlay, was in turn praised by American sani
tarians for his services TO humanity in discoy
ering the mode OF yellow fever propagation.
DR.. Finlay said Cuba was especially grateful
to this association, some of whose members
were Cuba's greatest benefactors The banish-
nent OF yellow fever was largely due to two
commissions from Washington the first a quar-
ter OF a century ago and The second twenty years
later. The latter decisively established the true
cause Of yellow fever. It's members were them

SOLEMN JUDGES SHOCKED
STIR IN SUPREME COURT.
JuristS addressed as YOu FeIIOzcs'
by Counsellor from Kansas.

Washington, Jan. 10.-With 4 characteristical-
y breezy eloquence, a. E. Crane. of Kansas to-
day completely upset the solemnity of the
United States Supreme Court by injecting into
MS argument some of the ginger and snap
peculiar 10 his Western training and practice
Dignity gave way to amused surprise when the
black rcbed justices were assured that you
fellows must realize the importance of this de-
cision"
In the easy, go-as- -you-please presentation Of
his case Mr.. Crane intended not the slightest
disrespcct, nor was there any disposition the
part Of the court to regard it III such a light
but he rutalessly trampled all the time hon
ored traditions, and actually conveyed the idea
that he wasn't afraid speak out in meeting"
The case involved application for a writ
OF habeas corpus. Mr.. Cranes client had been
convicted of selling liquor to Indian and
was in Jail for his crime. He was naturally
anxious to get our, and his attorney in order
TO accomplish the desired end brought out
legal points that had never before commanded
the attention of the court.
Mr.. Crane contended that his client had sold
liquor to a man who citizen of the State
OF Kansas and that the government could not
step in and assume guardianship over his per-
son and acts. for the reason that in voting, own
ing property and paying taxes, he exercised all
the privileges OF citizenship. He further con-
tended that the Kansas Indians no longer main
'ain tribal relations that they possess lands al
lotted in severalty and that the federal govern
ment had no jurisdiction over them. as they are
citizens Of Kansas.
Mr.. Crane declared that the government IN
this case assumed TO separate the Indian citizen
OF Kansas into two parts. and insisted that il
took more than the power Of the United States
10 separate man from his appetite. and espe-
cially in Kansas" He protested against the
contention Of the Solicitor General that the gov
eminent had jurisdiction over the appetite of the
Kansas citizen and the State over his person.
Justice Harlan took bend in the proceedings
by asking. that II could be heard through
out the chamber If "a man could not be q cit
iZen Of the United States without being citizen
Of any State" and promptly informed that
1T was impossible. according to decisions Of
the Supreme Court Of the United States"
1t is contended that decision in the ca Sc
argued by Mr.. Crane might affect the right of
Representative Curtis. of Kansas. to retain his
seat in Congress. He is Indian. land has
been allotted him. he is technically ward Of
the government, and yet. citizen of Kansas
is acceptably serving his state in the lower
House. In the case now before the court the
question of citizenship is involved. and decision
against the right Of man 10 sell liquor to
Kansas Indian, who loves it neither more nor
less than any other Indian. might have the
effect OF depriving Mr.. Curtis Of his seat

OPINION OF EDUCATORS AS TO
ITS WORK.


Prof. Walter Miller, professor or

visiting the classical school, wrote
The following unsOlicite opinion TO a
friend and colleague:
The Pensacola Classical School IS
1oing a splendid work for the cause OF
southern education. Il Is established
upon broad principles, it cherishes the
slightest ideals of scholarship; it main
feins a high standard Of excellence;
and bv the best modern methods and
equipment it secures thOrOughness Of
training comparable with that afforded
bv the great fitting schools Of the

Classical School is one Of the very
best secondary schools OF the south"

THE NIGHT IN MOBILE

The Mobile Register Of yesterday
says
The steamer Carney landed with
her passengers at IL O'Clock last night
ana the deputies were marched i'm a
body to Bienville Square where they
we're organized into three companies.
AT the head of one company was Cor
Cner Mckenzie. while Mr. Bryant and
Dr. Showalter headed the other two
companies. Some members Of the
posse carried Winchester rifles while
others Of the party did not have any
arms that could be seen.
No members of the posse would
tell the meaning of the gathering the
uniform reply to questions being that
they were gOin duck hunting A
few double barrel shOtguns were seen
in the posse.
It was at first given out that the
special deputies would so to Bay Min
cite on No. SO over the Louisville and
Nashville. which leaves here shortly
before midnight. but the train was
late and the main BODY of the
Daphneites did not go near the sta
ton. They were scattered among the
eating houses Of the city and it was
noticeable that they kept away for the
most part from. saloons whera intox-
icants are sold.
kiEnt of the men got off on SO and
they slowed themselves i'm the day
coach in such a way that they were
not observed There was a force OF
city police with Lientunant H. E.

out any of the Daphne force aboard
a rush was made to the telegraph
Office to learn if possible what their
programme was. Il was nOised about
that the fast passenger train. No. 2
had ORDERS to stop at Bay Minette.
and this was taken as an indication
that the cOrOner's posse was going
to board it. The train is due at II 20
and leaves at 1890 but it was fifty
minutes late and when it arrived there
was no sign of the armed force at
the depot.
Soon after the departure Of SO, the
men again marched to the square and
held a conference. at which it was de
Cided to wait until this morning. and
the statement was maze that the
posse would go to Bay Minette at s
O'Clock When some Of the members
were asked how they were gOing TO
get a train at that hour when The

they said they knew their business
and that the train would be there
when they needed it, II Is said that
