writer in the Philadelphia Press says
OF Judge William d. Kelley, the father of the
House: "When the Judge Is not engaged at Wash
ington he delights to spend his time in his beauu-
ful home in West Philadelphia. There is moth
ing pretentious about his house, but It's halls are
broad and Its ceilings high, and ample grounds
surround II. There is scarcely tree on the lawn
but has some pleasant memory associated with 1t.
This one was brought by friend from n far
country and that one the Judge planted with
some good friends aid. Each tree has an indi.
vidualty. and TO them, as he walks through his
grounds, the Judge delivers the rough outline of
some of his best speeches. The well stored library
is his delight His books show the bent ofhis mind.
There Is good deal of high class general
literature, but history, finance, and economic
science take up most of the shelves. Henry G..
Carey has an honored place; and the free o-trade
writers arc there, too, waiting TO be slaughtered
once more In the next speech. The large desk In
the middle of the floor Is good deal Uttered up
with letters pamphlets, and books-some of them
sprawled out on all fours, and all OF them marked
with slips OF paper for reference, Between two
windows stands one Of those tall, old-fashioned
clocks, with high -colored chubby face, looking
down on the dial. "D. Kelly, Philadelphia" tells
that II was made by the Judges father hut doesn't
add that the fasler made 1t for the man who was
his landlord when the sou was born, and that in
recent years the Judge bought the stately time
piece of melodious tick from the landlords widow.
The Judge points with n tender pride to the old
clock. To this workshop friend or one who has

his times, he, during the last ten years, read
the works Of Tyndall, Huxley, and John Stuart
Mill. His intimate friends say that he seemed par.

elaborate speeches to the works of the scientific

The Comets This Year.

that President Garfield died. Neither is yet visible
to the naked eye. Enckes rarely becomes bright

comet has possibilities. 1t would not be unprece-
dented If we should nave two brilliant comets this
year. Two of the grandest comets on record ap-
peared in the year ll02. At the very time that the
enormous comet of 1918 was soaring Europe an
Hemisphere. II Is also a mistake 10 suppose that
1881 has furnished an unprecedented number OF
comets. only four new comets have been dis
covered this year. In 1855 the year of the great
comet, no less than eight comets were seen OF
which six were new ones. III 1916 there were nine
comets visible, ofwhich eight had never been seen
before. There have been many years in which
four and five comets have been seen. So, what
ever may be claimed for 1881 on account of its
other marvels 1t certainly does not yet take the
front rank as q comet year.

Hon. JOHN PAUL, of Virginia, has during
the present campaign exhibited powers
as an orator which will make him power
in the House of Representatives, of
which he is member-elect. He is an ex-
confederate soldier, man of earnest con-
victions and strong patriotic impulses; a
fearless opponent of Bourbonism, and a
most popular man among the people. He
has spoken over hundred times during
the campaign, much of the time in joint

will be due to him as to any one man for
the anti-Bourbon success which is to be
achieved next Tuesday in the Old Domin-

CLAIMS for Office upon the estate of the
late President are now being filed in the
newspapers. Nothing can more faithfully
demonstrate the affection which some
people had for the dead President than
the eagerness with which they assert that
when he was shot he was about to be-
stow Office upon them. The delicacy
which is displayed by man who asks
the public to liston to the tale of Presi-
dent Garfeld's longing to give him an of
fee, which he had not time to do, is only
equaled by that of the man who wanted
permission to erect soda fountain and
a cigar stand inside the gate of n cemc-

ARTHUR AND CoNKLlNG.
The Latter's sincerity-His Services In
The "Nenr Fuimre.,

The manifestimport of Cabinet-making
so far as II has gone, is that Roscoe Conkling will
not be in President Arthur's Cabinet for some time
at least 1t needed his consent only to place him at
the head of the Treasury instead of Judge Folger.
His stcadfast refusal alone prevented such n con.
summation, for II was Arthur's wish to confer the
appointment upon him. Thus complete refuta-
tion has been given to the assertion that Arthur's
administration would be simply the will Of Conk
ling working through him. Probably up to the
present hour few citizens have had less to do in
directing or In any manner influencing Arthur's
acts than Roscoe Conkling. 1t is true he came
here at an early day, but he came solely to induce
the President to listen to his refusal to accept Of
flee. The logic of fact vndicates the ex-senator
and confounds his enemies. II is to be said
also that he has disappointed many of his
friends. II is not his followers solely who to- day
