Judiciary Law Necessary.
The supreme court will hold a special
session saturday morning to listen to argu-
ments on the appeal Of the state from the
decision of Judge Cornish, who declared
unconstitutional the nonpartisan judiciary
law. Those who favor the law are not
particular, they say, whether the supreme
court passes on the question before cleo
ton because they have filed a supersedeas
bond, and therefore the decision Of Judge
Cornish is set aside until the case Is set

HOW DOE SAVED HER PAWN.
Instance of Material Intelligence Tolc
 By French Writer.

From vulgarisation Scientihque.
 The following anecdote is related by M. X. Raspail. It is worthy of con1 parison with the most remarkable of instances of the same kind
 The author one day perceived a doe in full flight before two dogs in the .Aigle woods that form a part of the forest of Chantilly. The doe was ac- companied by very young lawn which appeared quite exhausted and ready to drop. The mother, doubtless well aware of this, slackened her pace and presently stopped close to some thick bramble bushes. She remained some time there with lowered head as if awaiting the onset of her pursuers
 Suddenly an idea seemed to strike her and with a butt of the head she tossed her fawn right Into the middle of the thicket. Then first advancing gently as if to make sure it was well hidden she soon set of by rapid bounds in front of the dogs. The latter bark ing close upon her heels, she made sudden bend and thus drew them far from the spot where this incident occurred. The bowling of the dogs be- came fainter and fainter, the valiant animal having doubtless led them two kilometers away in the Canardiere peat bogs, where the dogs often lose the scent.
 In fact, later they were seen return ing to the village in an exhausted con dition, while the intelligent mother doubtless returned to the bushes to find the little fawn she had so cleverly hidden and placed in safety.

Confiscated Liquor In Ohio

From the Columbus Evening Dispatch.
 One of the problems created by the county option law is where to keep tn ne immense quantities of liquor confisca ted by officials in dry territory from blind pigs" "speakeasies." alleged soft drink emporiums, etc.,~-which are doing a land office business these days. In some of the dry communities they do not know where to put this stuff. The jars are hardly large enough to hold it at times, and to meet the situation 1t has been suggested that they either be enlarged or that new jails with more ample accommodations be erected Doubtless in the construction of tn hese penal institutions hereafter provision will be made for storage departments, wine cellars, and the like, so that all captured booze can be taken care of until the time comes to dispose of 1t. It cannot be destroyed right off, be- cause it is used as evidence against the violator. Over at New Concord sev- eral days ago the vigilant officers cap tured enough liquor to sink a ship. The local bastile was not big enough to hold the stuff, and 1t was hauled over to the county courthou at Zanes- vile, where strong men stand guard over 1t.

Putting a Fly to Work.

From the Strand Magazine.
 There Is often time for a little conver- sation and the showing of a trick or two after dinner, so that the following experi- ment may prove interesting and useful. Il would be best to introduce flies into the conversation by saying what a hui sance they are, or something equally sim pie, and then at suitable opening ask If any one present has ever seen fly "a common housefy-empty a box ot matches. The answer will undoubtedly be in the negative. However a fly can be made to do so. Having caught one alive carefully hold 1t by both wings over 8 box of matches from which the lid has been removed. so that it can touch u match with its legs. It will immediately cling to the match in Its endeavor to walk, and the fly and match can be lifted up. The match can now be pulled off the fiy's feet and the fly lowered to another match, to which it will at once cling. Having caused the fly to lift out two or three matches, it could readily be seen that. if necessary, it would remove them all

PEABODY COLLEGE
 NOT TO BE MOVED

Nashville, November 21.-Former Gov. James D. Porter today confirmed the rumor of his resignation chancellor of the University of Nashville. Cover nor Porter, who is in his S1st year, gives as his reason for resigning the belief that the chancellor should reside here and says he is preparing to remove to his old home at Paris, Tenn. In a state ment he says:
 T will remain here until the new Pea body college is established on the campus of the University of Nashville. It will not be located at the Vanderbilt, although parties interested in that school and in adjacent property are seeking to per- suade the public that if it is not To- cated there the million will be lost The Vanderbilt is a church school and will so continue. It was established by the Methodist church, south That great or ganization will not permit the ambition of a few men to divert it from the pur- pose of it's organiza tion.'
