Archbishop ChapelIe.

The leading papers Of this country
and Europe have published all that can
be said, of interest, CONCERNING the
death, the funeral services and the last.
self sacrificing mission Of the Archbish-
op that exposed him to New Orleans
deadly plague and terminated his grand
earthly career.
What we wish particularly to note in
this article is the fact that this heroic
christian and former leader in his church,
is the uncle of Mr.. Emil Solignac, for
merly U. S. land Office Register at Las
Cruces, and at present one of Deming's
prominent and most respected citizens.
Mr.. Solignac's sister was one of the
Archbishop's household, and as soon as
he receivednotice of his uncle's death,
determined, If possible. to rescue his
sister, and get her away from the
plague stricken City. He was well
aware of the obstacles to be overcome,
and the dangers that beset his own life,
but counting these as nothing he left
for New Orleans at once, and at this
writing is doing all in his power to
make his mission a success. That he
and his sister may be spared, escape
from the city and return safe and sound
to Deming, is the sincere wish and ear
nest prayer Of this community.

So soft il follows through the night,

Though lonely and for years We roam,
Far from the ones who love US.

Like Gods grace spread above as.

GAMBLING Law
SUSTAINED
Judge Stewart Rules That the
Law is Constitutional and
Devices be Destroyed ST..

BOISE. March 16.-The Statesman
validity Of the state anti-gambling law
by overruling the demurrer of the
plaintiff to the answer of the defend
ant in the case Of the Mills Novelty
company VS.. w. c. Dunbar, justice Of
the peace. This is the noted slot ma
chine case which grew out of the seiz-
ure by Constable A. Anderson Of a
number of coin slot machines which
were being operated by the Mills Nov
city company in Boise during fair week
last October. Justice Dunbar ordered
the machines destroyed for the reason
that they were gambling devices, pure
and simple. The Novelty company
sought to replevin the machines and a
case now stands 1t will be set for trial
on the complaint and the answer ther-
go. Counsel for the novelty company
demurred to the answer alleging that
the state law bearing upon the aues-
ton was unconstitutional for the rea-
son that it contained no provision for
a hearing or determination Of the
character of the device.
In overruling the demurrer Judge
Stewart said in part:
The legislature has provided for the
suppression Of gambling by providing
for punishment for all persons who
deal. play, carry on, open or cause to
be opened, or who conduct either as
owners. employees or lessees, whether
for hire or not any game, whether
played with cards or any other device,
and have further provided that when
ever any judge or justice of the peace
shall have knowledge, or shall receive
satisfactory information that there is
any gambling table or gambling device

dUOpteU OF devised ana designed TOT
the purpose of playing any of the
games Of chance prohibited by law, to
forthwith issue his warrant, directed
by the sheriff or constable, to seize and
bring before him such gambling table
or other device and cause the same to
be publicly destroyed.
THE answer in this case alleges that
the slot machines sought to be recov-
cred by plaintiff are gambling devices
designed and used for that purpose
only and that they were seized under a
warrant issued as provided by law.
This answer is based upon section 4847
of the annotated penal code set forth
above The question is whether this
statute is constitutional, the plaintiff
contending that the statute provides
for the taking of property without due
process of law, in that no provision is
made for a hearing or determination
of the character of the device or the
use to which it 10 put after its seizure
and before it's destruction"
The court held that inasmuch as the
statute provides for the destruction of
only gambling devices or devices used
in violation of law, that 1T was not a
violation of the constitution to provide
for their seizure and destruction that
the court would not assume that he
justice who ordered their seizure would
not have a hearing and determine the
character Of the device and it's use be-
fore he ordered it's destruction: that
statutes similar to the Idaho statute
have been upheld by nearly every court
passing upon the same, except the su
preme court OF Missouri, especially
where the law provided only for the
destruction of property used in viola
ton of law such as a gambling device;
that the demurrer in this case admits
the allegations Of the answer to the
effect that the slot machines seized
We're gambling devices, devised and
designed for that purpose only and by
reason of which fact that were out

same to be true, and that the court
would not give its aid to- the recovery

Brave Toi1er Achieves Won
ders on $50 a Day By J. L: Graft

I which he supported his parents, living
! in house that belonged to them
His father died after two years of
constant attention by the son. Then
his mother was laid up for nearly four
times that long. He undertook to en-
ploy girls and women to take care Of
the mother while he was at work, but
there were times when it was impossi-
bic to get help, and he was obliged to
leave her alone while he toiled in the
brickyard.
1t Is doubtful whether any other man
ever paid a doctors bill in the same
way and with the same honest inten-
ton that John Anderson paid for the
medical service that had been rendered
his mother He worked in the brick
yard. allowing his employer to with
hold a certain amount Of his wages. In
small payments. No one came to his
help.
One day he learned that the doctor
was about to build a house, and he
asked the brick manufacturer to turn
over to the doctor brick to the full
amount Of retained wages that had ac-
cumulated in his hands, something
more than 500. Little by little he kept
on until the entire obligation was wiped
off the doctors book.
10 Stricken with Paralysis
He then worked two days and the 50
due him was all the money he had in
the world. On the second day he was
stricken with paralysis that benumbed
his whole right side. The strong heart
ed man was carried home absolutely
helpless.
Anderson says that his wife wavered
not an instant. BY that time there
were little ones about their hearth
stone. The wife and the mother went
out to work at anything that she could
find to do. 1t Is said the wife would
get the morning meal and then leave
her husband in care of the children.
When the wife returned she cooked the
evening meal, cleaned up the dishes
and tidied up the house. This was the
daily routine In the Anderson home for
twelve months, until the father was
again able to get back to work.
Honestly Pays His Debts
Anderson says he discharged the
debts incurred by him and supported
his family at a wage rate of not more
than $3.50 a day. Sometimes he has
not made that much and he is now
working at a night job that brings him
in IS a week. At one time he was the
station agent of the Monon road at
Owasco. where he kept the postoffice in
the same building He added to his
revenue by selling tribes.
One of the curious features of An
dersons struggle for a living is that
he never took up what seems to be his
natural calling. He relates that he has
nursed no less than twenty-one cases
of typhoid fever. He is natural born
nurse and all of the time that he
tugged away for $3.50 a day he might
have earned three times that much in
dozens of hospitals in his own or neigh
boring states.

A Thrilling Runaway.

Last Thursday afternoon Mrs. Paul
Miller was in town and just after she
had hitched her team to the buggy
which was a two seated rig, with only
the front seat in place-she placed her
little two-year- old child in the seat,
when the team suddenly started and
got away. They we're at Matt Bing-
hams home and ran few blocks down
town and then up college Hill at fast
pace, the little child hanging to the
seat and the almost frantic mother
helpless to stop the team. Thos. Cav
anaugh, deaf mute, perceived the sit
uation and took after the team which
slackened its pace in going up the hill
so that he overlook them and climbed
into the rear of the buggy and got the
child and jumped out with it. The
little one had hung to the seat and was
unharmed. The team was soon after
ward caught by Amos Tillotson, and
no damage had resulted to them or the
buggy.
