A French statistician, who has been
studying the military and other records,
has found that in 1910 the average height
of man in Europe was 8 feet inches +;
that in 1870 it was . feet inches !;
in 1920 IL was feet inches and
fraction. At the present time it is s
feet 3A inches. 1t is easy TO deduce from
these ngures rate OF regular and gradual
decline In human stature. and then apply
this, working backward and forward, to
the past and to the future. BY this caleula-
ton it is determined that the stature of the
first man attained the surprising average
OF 10 feet inches. Goliath was quite de-
generate offspring of the giants. Coming
down to later time, we find that at the be-
ginning of our era the average height of
man was 9 feet, and in the time of
Charlemagne 1t was 8 feet inches.
But the most astonishing result of this
scientific study comes from the application
OF the same inexorable law OF dininution to
the future. The calculation shows that by
1.-the year 1900 A. d. the stature of the aver
age man will be reduced to 10 inches.

Her Ono Adventure.

An old lady, wife of bank president.
has one happening to relate-as she
does uncaasingly-the single adventure
of her life. But that was sufficiently
exciting to last throughout an ordinary
existence, says the New York Times.
Her home was entered not long ago by
a gang of burglars, whose search was
for her son, the cashier, to open the
safe for them in the bank next door.
AT the sight of the young man led
away, with revolvers pointed at his
head and surrounded by desperate
masked men, his mothers fright and
horror found vent in wild cries and a
passion of tears. The rest of the family
were gagged, handcuffed and bound
TO chairs. She was tied to l. and
camphor and water left close ut hand.
No one else took any other notice of
her, but as the strange procession
moved off one of the rutfians hastily
stepped back to where she lay, stopped
oyer, and kissed her shriveled check,
murmuring in her ear: 81 had mother

does not ring true. Which it is.

JUDGE JAMES @. JENKINS.

was admitted to the bar in the city Of
New York in 1855, and removed to Mil
waukee in 1857, where he practiced his
profession. He was city attorney of
Milwaukee for four terms, from 1868 to
1857, and practiced in the supreme
court of the sta to and Of the United
States.
In 1877 he declined the democratic
nomination for governor of the state,
but in 1879 accepted such nomination,
leading forlorn hope. In 1880 he re-
eeived the compliment of the vote of
the democratic members Of the legis-
lature for United States senator. The
same year he was named by the bar
of the state as the successor of Chief
Justice Ryan of the state supreme court,
but the governor chose a member of
his own party for the position.
In 1875 he was nominated for county
Judge of Milwaukee county, Wis, but
declined. In 1886 he was rendered by
the president a position upon the
bench of the supreme court of the Dis
trict of Columbia, but also declined
that honor. In 1888, upon the resigna-
ton of Judge Charles E. Dyer, he was
appointed by the president United
States judge for the eastern district Of
Wisconsin.
Judge Jenkins married the only
daughter of Judge Miller, one of his
predecessors, and his home is model
of refinement and the resort of large
circle of cultivated people. He is a
man of many accomplishments outside
of his profession. He is rapid work
er, a close and logical thinker, and a
ready and brilliant speaker. His selec-
ton for the leading judicial position
to which he comes has been eminently
satisfactory, not only to the members
of the legal profession, but to citizens
generally.
