on the floor and left gasping in a

he stayed all that day. Next day

skiddoo and %.

The slang words "skiddoO" and
"twenty-three" have an associated
meaning which is "get out of the
way" snake way for your betters,"
and SO forth. "Skiddoo" seems to
be another form of "skedaddle, /"
which is an old, familiar slang word
for precipitate retreat, It is prob
ably callege slang, since it is de-
rived from the Greek word "skeda-
zein, which means run away. The
figures "S3" are a telegraphic signal
or abbreyiation, which means that
messages marked with it need not
be hurried through if there is more
Important matter to occupy the
wires. A "23" message, therefore,
is one that has to surrender the
right Of way if there are others that
must be rushed through without de-
lay. In other words, it has to get
out of the way Of its betters.-St.

WASHINGTON LETTER.

Worse reports are received

North Dakota is the worst suf-

messages showing that the stu

could be in a civilized country.
Towns with as many as $500 in
habitants report that they are
without a pound of coal, and beg
for immediate relief. In other
places there are coal supplies for
periods of not more than a week
or a fortnight, many of the
towns have had orders for coal
placed in Minneapolis for three
months past. They have not
been able to get it transported
by the railroads. But the worst
situation, Senator Hansborough
says, is likely to reveal itself
next spring in the outlying dis
tricts where there are 5000
settlers off the line of the rail
roads, of whom nothing has been
heard and nothing can be heard

the descendants of the original i'm
migrants have multiplied amazing

subsequent immigration, and they
have intermarried freely with the
Portuguese and the Brazilians.

A Remarkable Success.

Few plays have been written
in which the story unfolds itself
more naturally or with greater
interest than Running for Gov
ernor", which Robert Downing
is playing with remarkable sue
cess. The author has observed
the unities. There are no weary
soliloquies to tire the audience,
no "asides" to explain matters,
no eavesdropping, overhearing
important conversations and no
villain. Of course, there is a
clash of interests. The mother
wants to marry her daughter to
a title, the reporter loves the
girl, while the nominee for the
governorship of the State,- Hon,
John North, is endeavoring to
keep the knowledge of his first
wife from the ears of the second
Mrs. North, and to prevent his
brother-in-law from wedding
wife number one. A bad boy
and a servant girl with a passion
for sensational literature also
figure in the plot which moves
along with many complications.

are familiar to magazine readers,

ing and the title role is exactly

contemptuously at the old woman
who had come to the uptown hos
pital where he was an inferno to in
quire about her son.
''He has cerebro neurosis, l told

"Oh, DEAR" said the woman, for
she was not as ornately educated as
the young physician, ''is it as bad as
that? New--what do you call it?"
"Neurosis," said the surgeon.
"Don't | talk plain enough for
you?"
'Ts it anything like nervous pros
tration?" inquired the woman.

ucatiou was along literary rather
than scientific lines"

the young physician as he got ready
to make a run for the ambulance at
the door.-New York Telegram.

SOLVED IN SLOMBER.
A Problem That Was Worked Out and
Written During Sleep.


MANY persons have written while
wrapped in slumber Coleridge
writing the poem of "Kubla Khan"
in his sleep is classic instance, but
there are numerous Others. Here is
one which DR.. Carpenter mentions
in his book on mental Physiology"
A professor at Amsterdam had
been given by a banking house OF
that city a question to solve, involV-
ing long and difficult calculation.
Several times he tried to obtain the
solution, but each time he made
some mistake. At last, all wearied
out, he gave the problem to some
of his students, telling them that
if possible he would like the answer
in three days. One of them, eager
to get into his teachers good graces,
took it home and worked on it for
three successive nights in vain.
"At last | bent myself over my
figures for third evening. 1t was
winter, and l calculated till half
past in the morning, all to no pur-
pose. The product was erroneous.
Low at heart, ! threw down my pen
Gil, which already by that time had
beciphered three states. hesitat-
ed whether | would toll through the
night, as knew that the professor
wanted an answer the very same
morning. But, 10! my candle was
already burning in the socket, and
the persons with whom lived had
gone to rest. Then | also went to
bed, my head filled with ciphers,
and, tired in mind, l fell asleep. In
the morning | awoke just early
enough to dress and prepare myself
to go to the lecture, vexed at
heart at not having been able to
solve the question and at having to
disappoint my teacher.
"But, oh, wonder! AS / approach
my writing table find on it a paper
with figures in my own hand and
think of my astonishmentD the
whole problem on it solved quite
Alright and without single blunder.
l wanted to ask my hostess whether
any one had been in my room, but
was stopped by my own handwrit-
ing. Thus | must have calculated
the problem in my sleep and in the
dark to boot. And, what was most
remarkable, the computation was so
succinct that what l saw before me
on a single folio sheet had required
three slatefuls, closely beciphered
on both sides, during my waking
state. Professor Won Swinden was
amazed at the event and declared
to me that while calculating the
problem himself he had never once
thought of a solution SO simple and
concise" ."-Exchange.

In the course of a little while
the country will know whether
Congress considers that the
president was within his rights
in discharging the members of
the 25th Infantry, who were dis
honorably mustered out of SER
vice. This is one of the finest
opportunities that the opponents
of the administration in Con-
gress have had to make per-
sonal fight on the president,
thinly veiled under the show of
regard for law and facts. The
president has strong defenders
on the floor of both the House
and the Senate and by the time
the contest is over the Senate in
particular will know that there
has been a fight in its neighbor-
hood.

s just one point of law to be set
lied, no matter how the opposi-
ton may try to muddy the water.
Two points can be raised, one
of law, and the other of fact. As
Senator Lodge says, there is no
question that there was shooting
at night on the streets in Browns
vile, the fact that remains to be
determined is whether it was the
soldiers who did the shooting, or
citizens of Brownsville disguised
as soldiers. There was one man
killed, another so badly wounded
that his arm had to be amputat-
ed, and another had his horse
shot under him, narrowly escap-
ing death. An investigation on
the ground may and ought to
bring out whether it was the cit
liens, willing to stop not even
at murder, who did the shooting
in order to cast disgrace upon the
soldiers, or whether it was the
soldiers themselves who are gull
ty.
The president will be perfectly
willing to see this point of fact
settled, but about the law in the
case, there is absolutely no ques-
ton. The president is the COM
mander-in-chief of the army, and
as such he can enlist and dismiss
soldiers at pleasure. Senator
Lodge in his defense of the pres
ident had armed himself with a
multitude of precedents in this
line and showed cOnclusively that
it was always the commander-in-
chiefs prerogative in every cline
and country to dismiss soldiers
or whole regiments of them if he
deemed it for the good of the
service or the public. Senator
Lodge pointed out that an en-
listment was a contract termin-
able not at the option of the SOL
dier, but of the commander of
the army who employed him.
This has been held true innum-
cradle times, and if it were not
true there would be no safety
for the country could an armed
regiment be retained in it's place
on the rolls in defiance of it's su-
perior officer. The Attorney
General, the Constitutional
League, and any one else who
wishes to investigate the affair
may discover all the facts they
choose about who actually did
the shooting. But about the
presidents right to dismiss as
many companies or regiments as
he chooses, it would seem, from
Senator Lodges statement, there
can be no question whatever.
