a motion to stay the action of the
Navarro county district court in the
Injunction suit seeking to prevent
the certification of the name of
Earle b. Mayfield as democratic
senatorial candidate.
The court also In its answers to
the certified questions from the Dali
las court of civil appeals held that
the appealees were without authority
to institute and maintain the injunc-
ton and therefore the district court
is without Jurisdiction.
In holding that the appealees had
no Jurisdiction to bring and main
tain the Injunction proceedings the
court also held that section 0, chap
ter So, which was the center OF the
argument at the hearing before the
court Wednesday, is constitutional.

certified to the court by the Dallas
court OF civil appeals were answered
These two regard the right of the
plaintiffs to bring the suit and con-
stitutionallty of the quo warranto"
section. 1t is declared that with the
answering of these questions, the
answers to the remaining questions
are not necessary. The effect OF
the courts decision Is to prevent the
injunction granted by Judge Scar

iron that are lacking in our daily
diet, to overcome such conditions
susie has been tested and ap-
proved by a well known Professor
of Physiological Chemistry at one
of cur leading Medical Colleges, and
after months of experimenting with
susie, he says, in all cases of
general rundown system or in con-
yalescence susie played a very
important part in stimulating the
appetite and increasing body

Ericsson already has been hon
ored by a statue which stands in
Battery park, near the spot where
the naval pioneer experienced in
1874, one of the bitterest of the
many bitter disappointments of his
early career.
Ericsson had been taken under
the wing of Lieutenant Robert F.
Stockton of the. United States navy
and commissioned to design the
battIeship Princeton-the first
iron battIeship with its boilers and
engine below The waterline, and the
precursor of the modern dread
nought.
Gun ExplOdeS.
When the Princeton started for
Washington for demonstration be-
fore President Tyler and other
government officials, Ericsson was
waiting at the Battery expecting to
be taken aboard for the cruise. But
the Princeton sailed majestically
past without stopping. A few days
later big gun--against the de-
sign of which Ericsson had pro-
tested to Lieutenant Stockton-ex-
ploded at the conclusion of the
tests, killing Secretary of State Up
shur, Secretary of Navy Gilmer,
Senator Maxey. two naval officers
and President Tyler's bodyguard.
The accident led to an estrange-
ment between Ericsson and his
patron, and Ericsson sank into
comparative oblivion until the
Unions need for a battleship to
meet the Confederacy's threatening

favor. and brought acceptance of
