ESCAPE FROM POOR HOUSE
Women Wander on Road at Late
Hour Of Night

On Wednesday morning about 80,
Mr.. David Naille who lives about two
miles from STAUNTON on the Mid
dlebrook road heard loud barking OF
his dogs. He heard also the cries OF
a woman. He dressed and went to his
gate where he found an old woman
who told him a woman over at the
road was dying, that there was
woman with her who was sick, and
that she, the old woman, was on her
way to see her father in Nelson
County who was not expected to live.
Mr. Naille went to the road and found
matters as he had been told they
were. He then 'phoned to Mr.. Fultz'
livery stable for rig to take them to
town, and also to DR.. Bradford, the
city physician. Both responded and
soon the women were all loaded into
the wagon and sent to STAUNTON,
the old woman to the county Jail,
the younger women to the city aims

mother--sald her name was Humphreys
and it developed that all three had es-
capped from the county poor house and
had carried with them some personal
belongings, and some had clothing
They were all in most unsanitary con-
dition as to clothing and bodily COM
forts, showing condition OF un-
cleanliness not permitted at the City
Aims House and ON which ought not
to exist at any other public lnstltu-
tion. Nothing has been learned as TO
how long the Humphreys woman has
been in the county Poor House, VI
who was responsible for the neglect
that permitted her to wander about at
that hour of the night.

BAR ASSOCIATIONS OF
v|RG|Ml AND MARYLAND
Addressed by MIR. Justice
Lurton of the United States
Supreme Court

Hot Springs, Va, July % Accord
ed the rising vote of both the associa-
ions of Maryland and Virginia, JUS
tics Horace H. Lurton, of the United
States Supreme Court, today spoke
before the joint associations on the
topic (which Shall it Be, a Govern
meHt OF Law, or a Government of
Men?''
SIS there not a growing disposi-
tion," said Justice Lu1ton "to disre-
gard the limitations which we have
placed upon those in authority, and
a tendency to applaud the doing of
things which we wish done, regard
less of whether lawful or unlawful
If one power does things which dis
please us, we are swift to inquire into
his authority, but is that SO if the
thing done meets with our approval?
s'The contention that the obliga-
tion of Constitution is to be disre-
garded if it stands in the way of that
which is deemed of public advantage,
or that valid law under the Consti
tuition is to be modified so as to ac-
compllsh that which the executive ad-
ministering it, or a court called upon
to enforce it, shall deem to be the pub
lie advantage, is destructive Of the
whole theory upon VIII ich our Ameri-
can 4 Comnonwealths have been foun-
ded to say nothing of the constitu-
tional relation of the Union and the
States to each other.
ssBut of late, with the great influx
of an enormous mass of immigrants,
un-accustomed to democratic govern
ment, and wholly unfamiliar with the
American constitutional idea, there
has been great increase in the num-
Der of those voters who object to. any
restraint upon the will of the major
ity, as voiced in either Congress or
the State legislative assemblies, and
therefore. consider this power to an
null law as the usurpation of the
legislative authority.
"The courts possess neither the
power of taxation nor that of the
sword. They are dependent upon the
executive for the force needful TO en-
force their judgements.
Let us rather rejoice that in stand
ing by the institutions which have
for more that century made us the
most lawabiding people OF the earth,
that we are walking in the footsteps
of our fathers when we maintain in
letter and spirit that division of the
great functions of government which
the men Of Massachusetts and the men
fof Virginia and the men Of Virginia
and the men OF Maryland declared
with Montesquieu to be the best Sc
curity for government of laws, and
the only safeguard against return
to government of men.

drew their bows back and forth
across their violins trying to find
the "lost cord'' and the 'jolly old

great deliberation; then setting it

and real smoke exuded.
Mr.. II. Benneson, the portly

Crushed by
COWCatCher
Hawaiian Accidentally Killed
on Railroad.

Levi Alama was fatally injured
Friday afternoon near the Wailuku
depot. He was breakman on
engine No. 4.
After the engine had taken water
he threw the switch and then jumped
safely onto the pilot to ride back
and couple the cars a distance of
probably fifty feet.
There were no eye witnesses and
it j. supposed that while on the
pilot he swung one foot down to the
guard rail where it was caught. The
engine was moving very slowly at
the time but as the man could not
eXtricate his foot the cowcatcher
broke the knee and lacerated the
flesh of the thigh.
The injured man was taken to
the hospital where every thing
possible was done for him.
He was taken to his home in Ka-
hului by his relatives. He died
there in less than twenty-four hours
after the accident.
A coroners inquest was held Mon
day. The verdict of the jury was
accidental death due to camlessness
on the part of the deceased.
