THE STATE.

The constitutionality of the act by
which Geo. c. Scudamore has been
committed to the insane asylum by
County Judge BellingeT, IS to be test
ed by attorneys representing the rel
atives of the ex-banker. A writ or
habeas corpus, directed to the sheriff
of Escambia county and his deputies,
has been granted by the state SUI
preme court, and the date for the ar
guments in the case has been set for
next Wednesday in Tallahassee.
Appeared Before Court.
VIII H. Watson, of the firm OF
Reeves & Watson, who are among
the attorneys representing the Scuba
more family, went before the suprems
court Tuesday and argued for a writ
of habeas corpus compelling the
sheriff and his deputies to show by
what reason they are holding Geo. G.
Scudamore in custody.
The matter was taken under adj
visement by the court, and yesterday
a wire was received from Mr. Wat
son by Judge Reeves stating that the
writ had been issued, and is made
returnable next Wednesday in Talla-
hasSee.
Will Test Act.
The constitutiona1ity of the act is
to be tested. The grounds, "a'1
Judge Reeves, yesterday are that 1t
denies Scudamore of the due process
of law in several instances; that it
denies him a trial by jury. and does
not afford him an opportunity to de-
fend himself, which IL guaranteed to
every citizen of the United States.

Though Friday, the 18th, was the time
fixed for the annual Open House day Of
the Randolph sanatorium, donations were
received during almost the entire week
and amounted in all to a valuation Of 800.
The sanatorium has had three Open
House days, and this last one exceeds
both the other two in the number and
value OF the contributions received,
which is an indication that interest in
the institution and appreciation Of its
work are steadily increasing.
Many visitors took advantage Of the
open day to call at the sanatorium and
were kindly shown over the hospital by
the nurses. The AFFAIR Was under the
auspices of the Sanatorium Aid society,
and three Of its members, Mrs. B. d. Du-
Bots, Miss Ella Skinner and Mrs. Homer
White. were present in the afternoon and
evening TO receive the callers and assist
the nurses in conducting them over the
building. In the afternoon Mrs. A. e.
Bass and Miss Eta Harwood took charge
of the gifts, and in the evening were re-
lieved by Mrs. B. g. Goodwin and Miss
Minnie Carpenter.
One gift destined to grow in size and
value was q fve-months-old pig, offered
for capture to the nurses, who accepted
the challenge and Bkilfully cornered the
prize. For piegy's exclusive use 3 small
trough, much wrapped in tissue paper,
was sent from the z. A. Thomas store,
whose departments. backed by the inge-
nuity Of 2. L. Merchant, are equal to any
demand. One piece Of live stock, 9 good
COW, greatly desired at the sanatorium,
was regretfulIy missed among the bum
dies and boxes handed in.
The itemized receipts were as foIIows:-
Twenty dollars in money, barrels of APP
Piles, 5 bushels Of potatoes, husheI Of
onions, ia bushels of beets. Z bushel
Of turnips, ~ cabbages, quarts Of
beans, Fl squashes, is pounds Of sugar,

THE BEST OF ALL

know of maidens plenty, maidens slim and
maidens stout
Maidens fair with golden hair, and maidens
dark, without;
But of all the arts and graCes
That the gentler sex embraces
There is one whose gift strikes me all right.
She's the winner, beyond doubt.
She can't play golf a little bit, nor auto worth
a cent;
She hasn't time for boating, nor for tennis
tournament;
She doesn't care for furbeows
Nor fancy frills, nor even beaus,
Nor theaters nor fancy balls nor jew1s nor
ornament.
But to see her in the kitchen in the morning of
the day
Is enough to make man rejoice and lay the
blues for aye,
For the way she kneads the bread,
While her cheeks flush rosy red,
Is sight dead enchanting that it steals
your heart away.
All, the way she broils a chicken turns mere
living into bliss!
While her steak and rolls and coffee-one
could die for less than this
Her buildings, they are dreams,
And her pastry never seems
To mpart a painful reckoning with hight
mare one would miss.
Maidens all, take heed and listen, and remem-
Der what l say
Fun and furbelows and flirting, they all
right in their way;
But the real and lasting pleasure
Is the thought that such treasure
Is in your home to work for and, thank God !
she's there to stay!

TRANSMITTING POWER BY WIRE

THE romance of travel and the romance of
industry are curiously blended in the an
nouncement lately made in the press that the
Sultan of Johore has contracted for an electric
plant to cost nearly million dollars: The
very name of Johore, little state at the top
of the Malay Peninsula, carries the flavor Of
. the stored East.
At the same time, there is nothing in The
Thousand and One Nights" more wonderful
than the fact that plant of the nature re-
ferred to will transmit the power of five
thousand horses some ninety-eight miles over
three copper wires the size of an ordinary lead
pencil
1t is said that the first experiment in thus
transmitting power made at a mill in
Rhode Island which was about to be aban-
doned as inaccessible, when some sug
gested stretching wire from dam five miles
away. The plan succeeded. Other millmen,
miners, lighting companies, and municipah-
ties adopted it.. A single corporation engaged
in the manufacture of power transmitting
machinery last year put forth apparatus to
the value of ten million dollars.
This showed record breaking development;
for the first years business of the same cor
poration in 1893 only one-fftieth as large.
The Sultan's great plant, which will carry the
force of a cascade to the Government gold
mines, marks development in still another
direction. The greatest distance over which
power is regularly transmitted is about
eighty-three miles,-from Redlands to Los
Angeles California, where it runs a street rail-
way lights the streets, and performs other
services.

which, its first fear of the men passed, now
stood eying them sleepily, and threw the mill
tary saddle on its back, cinched it up, clattered
the bit between its teeth, kicked the picket
pin loose, and coiling the line bucked 1T to
the saddle.

In silence they passed up the slight incline
in the opening of the wall, Dakota leading
Somers' horse.
Bender was waiting on the prairie with the
horses of his companions. Chris called to
Chinook, and he came trotting up through the
gloom.
IAN right, Kootenay you and Tough pull

you lead off with the guest, and the rest OF us,

Down along the river bank, as silent as

nosily through the ford, up the farther bank
and broke into trot for Stand OFT.
CHRIS was wondering in nervous apprehen

How strange it was that neither he nor Dupre
had been seen! Evidently her fathers party
had not encountered them on the trail An
unreasoning dread forced itself into her mind
that perhaps the minister had encountered the
breed She knew that Dupre was vicious
as wolf.
And Somers, with the fuller knowledge in
mind that Dupre would recognize Black as
kinnaird, whom he had cause to hate, was
prey to an apprehension that could see no
possible escape from disaster.
Mayo sat his horse in moody silence, angered
by all these many things of suspicious mystery;
lost in vain con lecture as to the movements OF
Preacher Black and Dupre
And as they slipped like sinister shadows
over the moonlit prairie the man OF their tor

death.
