This must be left to the legal fraternity on the bench or

The literal Interpretation of the constitution Of this state
means that the supreme court shall consist OF three Judges

how the younger Dumas looked on
Jules Verne as the real rival of his
father. Dumas the Great popularized
history in his novels; Jules Verne did
more to make boys and men know
geography and applied sciences than
any other author of fiction who has
lived. Neither pretended to be rigor-
ously exact; but, at bottom, there was
historic or scientific truth. Dumas
used every pediod OF history, and Jules
Verne used every branch of science.
One praised the times that are past
the other the times that are to come.
Millions of boys and girls have read
the books of Jules Verne, in French,
English, German, Spanish, Portuguese.
Dutch, Italian, Swedish, Japanese and
Russia. There are even Chinese and
Arab translations of Around the
World in Eighty Days." and Madame
Verne has vellum bound volume in
which Persians read the adventures Of
Phineas Fogg.
Some of Jules Verne's most fantas-
tic predictions have already been
realized. The submarine boats of
present navies were wild romance in
Twenty Thousand Leages Under the
Sea" and THE Mysterious Island"
He predicted the automobile and
the dirigible balloon and aeroplane
when most of today's middle aged
men were boys or infants in arms.
In "RCbur lie Conquerant' and "Hec.
tor Servadac" men flew; and in THE
Steam House they motored on a
scale yet to be realized
Screw Island" was suggested by a
paragraph in an American Sunday
newspaper. 1T, too, will happen some
day." said Nine. Jules Verne recently.
