WRIT is REFUSED
JUDGE LINDSEY CAN PROCEED IN
FRANCHISE SUITS.
JUSTICE BAILEY'S !DECISION

VIC VI INC Judges IN vacation May
Not Issue Writ of Prohibition-su.
persedeas Would Have Same Effect
and Is Therefore Denied.
Denver.-Justice George w. Bailey
OF the Supreme Court, sitting in cham.
bers yesterday, refused to grant the
writ of supersedeas asked for by the
Denver City Tramway Company and
the Denver Gas and Electric Company.
restraining Judge B. B. Lindsey from
proceeding with the trial of the fran
chise election cases.
In announcing his decision, Judge
Bailey said:
Under the practice of this court, one
Of the judges in vacation may not is
sue writ of prohibition nor an order
to show cause why such writ would not
be issued. The effect of this applica-
tion is for prohibitive order.
while it may be called by another
name, it has the same result and legal
effect. What 1 cannot do directly, |
may not do indirectly. While stay or
ders, injunctive in their nature have
sometimes been issued, l know of no
instance in which this has been dono
by a judge in vacation, except to pre-
serve the status of property or prop
erty rights. l found no record of such
an order having been made by judge
in vacation to prevent an investiga
tion by trial. If the County Court Is
without jurisdiction to try the cause
respondents rights may be saved by
appeal or writ of error after final de-
cree.
1T was said in the Wheeler case that
one of the attributes of this court is,
If necessary, to invent new writs or
proceedings in order, suitably, to exer-
else the jurisdiction conferred by the
constitution; but this inventive power
may not be exercised by one of the
judges.
The application will be denied"

REST THAT RESTS.

Rest means rest
"Cut out" worrying.
Rest with a capital R.
Few persons know how to rest.
Rushing for trains and boats isn't
resting.
Being elbowed by vulgar mob ism t
resting.
Neither is staying home and being
annoyed by endless details.
Overdressing, overeating and too
much excitement are not restful.
Over Sunday rest is best accom-
plished by trip to some restful place
The idea is to discover what best
agrees with one and then to follow II
as we'll as possible.

Still Seek Treasure Island"

Treasure island" is still mystery.
The steam yacht Rose Marine, which
left England in October, 1908, to
search for the treasure which tradi-
ton says pirates concealed on Cocos
island, in the Pacific, has returned to
Southampton. Capt. Mathews, the
skipper, is reticent as to the results
of the voyage, and only says that his
belief in the project has been strength
ened. The work of searching the is
land is very difficult.

MariaviIle Man Missing .

MARIAvILLE, April II Especially - George
Whittier, of this place, has been missing
more than two weeks, and all efforts to
locate him have so far proved unsuccess-
full. The police of Bangor have been
notified, but as yet have found no clue.
Mr.. Whittier left here over two weeks
ago for Bangor to attend to some busi-
ness, and nothing has been heard of him
since. His family fear foul play, as he
carried quite sum of money with him.
Mr.. Whittier, with his wife and his
wife's brother, Mr.. Grover, moved here
about year ago. His family relations were
apparently happy, and no cause can be
assigned for his mysterious disappearance.

FREsHET AT FRANKLIN.
Much Damage Done as Result of
Sundays Heavy Rain.


Much Damage Done as Result of
Sundays Heavy Rain.
West FRANKLIN, April IS (special)- -
The heavy rain OF Sunday caused freshet
on the mill stream at West Franklin
which resulted in great damage.
The trouble began Monday when the
upper dam, between the two ponds, gave
way. The water thus released, tore away
the booms and with ice and logs came
sweeping down upon the lower dam at
Seammons' mill, which was carried out.
The Main street bridge was next to go,
and the old Coombs grist mill was carried
down stream with it.
Mr.. Scammons is the heaviest loser.
His mill was not damaged, but his entire
stock Of logs for the seasons saving was
scattered, and is now strewn about the
banks of the pond and stream, and over
fields where carried by the high water.
No accurate estimate OF the number of
logs lost, or the cost of collecting those
scattered about, can yet be made, but it is
probable that Mr.. Scammons' loss will ap-
proach 5000.
The carrying out of the main bridge
cuts off travel between Franklin and Ellis
worth by team except by the roundabout
way of Eastbrook and Waltham.
1t will cost the town 81 500 to build a
new bridge. 1t is probable that tempo
rary bridge will be built.
The Coombs mill was an old structure,
and the loss on it is about 81 900.

TO TUE EARLY HyAoINrHs.


TO THE EARLY HYA9INTHs.
Beside my garden path to day
| see thy greer spears force their way
Up through the cold and frosty
ground
That kept for months in darkness
bound;
But thou hast heard Springs early
call,
And breaking from thy wintry pail,
Unto the laws of nature true,
Hast found resurrection true.
o, sweet, brave harbingers of spring
Thou dost double message bring,
OF hopeful cheer and bitter pain,
AS now see thee here again;
Thou art prophecy most clear,
That balmy spring is drawing near,
And that therefll come In SUMMER
hours
The whole sweet sisterhood of flowers
| But she who watched from year to
year
With joy to see thee re-appear,
Now sees thee not, and nevermore
Shall greet and tend thee as of yore;
Dark shadows lie on heart and home
As now in Ionliness | come.
Aud of her absence to thee tell.
Who loved us both so long and well.
As warm, bright days come on apace,
I'll watch thy growth in lovely grace,
Until shall come thy full. sweet
bloom,
Then bear thee to her sacred tomb!
Perhaps she'll see thee laying there
A token of earth-love sincere.
And think of us, though in the skies,
Among the flowers of paradise.
Jas B. Morgan.
