I demanded boldly. I knew that nothing would induce him to specify them. "Oh, I only meant it wasn't exactly my idea." "What was your idea exactly?" It was mean of me to put poppa to the blush, but I had to define the situation.

The Constitutions of the States generally require the existence of a Supreme Court of last resort, and often specify also by name one or more of inferior jurisdiction. Such courts stand on a firmer footing than those created by the legislature under a general power to establish inferior courts. The power to establish implies a power to limit and to destroy.

Having regard to your interests in such matters, they also are left mainly to your judgment, and I wish only to specify some lines on which any soundings taken would be especially important. These seem to be: 1. Across the Sound in one or two places to give a section of the bottom elevations. 3. Across any fiords on the coast such as the Ferrar Glacier Inlet. 4.

When, however, Josephine asked me the other day to specify the field, I was obliged to admit that my ideas were a trifle hazy. My state of mind doubtless proceeds from a rooted conviction that the emancipation of woman has only just begun, and a certain sympathetic curiosity with her each and every effort to advance.

Again there was no need between them to specify to whom the pronoun referred. "Will you meet me tonight near the sweet-pea border about nine?" She glided away as she spoke without waiting for him to answer, and as soon as he was free from the magic of her presence, reaction came and he was torn by a thousand doubts and fears and worse. "Why, I'm mad, mad," he groaned.

This looked very serious, as, after referring the matter to his uncle, who was a solicitor, my husband learned that the lease made during his minority did not specify the quantity of coal that the tenant was allowed to extract from the mine, and, of course, as much as possible had been taken out of it.

For it was his senior subaltern, and a bullet had entered his head from behind just above the neck. It had come out at his forehead, and we will not specify further. "Stretcher bearers at once." He went back to the group he had just left. "Mr. Dixon has been shot through the parapet, farther up." "Killed, sir?" The N.C.O. in charge was in Dixon's platoon. "Yes." The Company Officer was laconic.

When they may have occasion to recollect at a distance of time the tale of any commodities they are carrying to market, or the like, the country people often assist their memory by tying knots on a string, which is produced when they want to specify the number. The Peruvian quipos were I suppose an improvement upon this simple invention.

On the 22d there was a hard gale, accompanied with squalls and showers, which continued during the night, over a frightful sea. The Etoile made signals of distress, but it was not till the 24th that she came within hail, or could specify the damage she had received.

Many of the States, however, specify a considerable number of purposes for which State, cities, or counties may give or loan their credit; and the matter of municipal socialism has just been discussed.
