Justice Fields Ambition.

Justice Field of the Supreme
Court is said by his friends to be
possessed of a somewhat remarka-
BILE ambition. This is to stay upon
the bench until his record shall
eclipse in point of length that of
any of his predecessors. Mr.. Field
came to the Supreme Court in
1868, and in a few days will have
completed his thirty.second year on
the bench. This will bring him
abreast the record made by John
McLain, of Ohio, and by James M.
Wayne, of Georgia, each of whom
sat thirty-two years in this great
court. Justice Field has already
passed Bushrod Washington, who
was Associate Justice for thirty-one
years, and long since eclipsed the
record made by Chief Justice
fancy, Associate Justice Catron
and the late Justice Miller, each of
whom served twenty-eight years.
IF Justice Fields health will per-
nit him to remain on the bench a
little more than two years from
date, he will then be able to retire
with the proud record of having
served longer than any man in the
history of the court. The record is
now held by the famous Justice
Marshall, who served from 1901
to 1885, a period of thirty-four
years. Justice Story of Massachu-
sets served from 1911 to 1916,
lacking only a few months of thir-
ty-four years.-Chicago Times

The National Builder publishes a
formula for fre-proof and water
proof substitute for paint, for use in
boiler and engine rooms, consisting
of six quarts of freshly Stacked lime,
well sifted, to which is added one
quart of rock salt and a gallon of
water, the mixture being then well
boiled and skinned clean. To five
gallons of this mixture are added a
pound of alum, half pound of
copperas (stirred in slowly, three
quarters of a pound of potash, and
four quarts of fine sand or hardwood
ashes, we'll sifted. To this may be
added any coloring material desired.
1t is said to be as durable as slate,
and to be especially applicable to
brick work and similar surfaces.

the season, and it wasn't nice enough to
last long. Before six weeks had gone
by it began to look shabby, and | had to
get another for best. Yet Arthur buys two
hats-one derby for 81 and a soft hat for
the same price. Then he's fitted out for
several months, all for So. They always
look well. But let me buy two 81 hats and
try to make them do until spring, what a
disreputable appearance would present"
Take the matter OF outer garments. A
man buys his winter costume-a double
breasted sack suit of handsome cloth,
worsted, serge or cheviot-for $50 or $40;
This amount procures one that, IS well
made, fashionably cut, and in which he
always appears well dressed. Now let the
young woman get a gown for the same
money. Whether she buys it ready-made
or not 1t will be only fair for the price, and
not be first class. But let her attempt to
wear 1t for the street and home for an en-
tire season, as the men will do, excepting
only those occasions when evening dress
is required. Ii she takes it to business,
dons 1t on the street, and for ordinary pur-
poses at home, it will look shabby in no
time at all. And who wouldn't tire of the
girl In the same frock, morning, noon and
night? She would, of necessity, be COM
PEELED to freshen it at times by fancy
walst-coats, silk fronts, lace effects and so
on. Even if she did, by great care, sue
coed IN making the dress last. she would
never present the correct appearance of the
average young man in his plain suit.
1t is time, say some, to rebel; time to
call for a costume that we can buy ready
made, as do the men, for fair price. Give
US the right to make our dress after a be-
coming, not fashionable, style, and to
wear it as long as we please. Then the cry
need no longer be raised against this
forced extravaganza of woman.
The other sex, too, may soon raise it's
objections. The well-dressed young man
needs larger purse than formerly; styles
change more rapidly of late and greater at
tention is paid to the accessories of his
toilet, He finds his laundry bill a con-
siderable item, and he selects his ties with
great care. They match either his eyes,
his hair or the stripe in his shirt. His link
cuff buttons, his ,paiamas, silk underwear,
suspenders, socks, handkerchiefs and
gloves must all be of the finest, and he
must certainly have handsome lounging-
coat and an eiderdown robe de chambre,

Suspecting that White Cloud had a
"shot" before starting in his race Friday
the officials of the Jockey Club yesterday
had the stomach of the dead animal re-
moved and taken to veterinary hospital
where it viii be analyzed for traces of any
drug. Should any be found his owner,
]. E. King, may find himself in hot water.
1t was said around the track that some one
tried to spirit the dead carcass away early
Saturday morning before it could be cut
up.
George Withers riding on Tvro was
very clever piece of Craftsmanship. Tyro
slipped his bride before taking the last
two jumps, but George managed TO stick
on, and win pulling up, with no bit in the
horses mouth.
Felix Carr deserves great credit for the
mastery manner in which he rode the
heayy-headed Hawthorne.
Willie Flynn was indefinitely suspended
from riding for his istless riding of Reali-
zation.
San Luis Rey was kicked in the leg at the
post in the handicap and badly cut.
Ed Purser played the Kentucky stable to
win the handicap, thinking Jim Flood
especially good for the place.
Dave Gideon had a swell bet down on
Tyro.

apparently would not try again.

PHYSICIANS TRAINING.
DR.. Yemans Suggests Improvement
in the Medical Colleges.

II
in the Medical Colleges.
DIR. H. NJ. Yemans, who prominently fig
ured in the controversy between the hold
ers of foreign and the holders of domestic
diplomas, says: "The great defect in
schools for teaching medicine in this coun-
try is that sufficient discrimination is not
exercised at the time of admitting stu
dents; thus it happens in many instances
that an individual is permitted to begin
the study of medicine who, by reason OF
having no proper foundation upon which
to build, is untitled therefor. Were that
defect remedied by the insistence upon and
carrying out of a thorough and impartial
preliminary examination, graduates from
our medical colleges would be invariably
as they are now generally, the peers of any
in the world.
in addition to preliminary examina-
ton for the purpose of determining the es-
sential requirements of the applicant for
admission into the study of medicine" saws
the doctor, Ian examination as to compe-
tence and knowledge should be made into
the case before granting license to prac-
tlce. 10 many the acquisition of medical
knowledge is considered to be by some
mysterious Or occult means and to them
one doctor is as good as another-the
simple assumption of the title is all sniff
cient, and it needs but a whine to enlist
the sympathies of all such. Laying aside
the question of school,
eff, in addition, another most desirable
change could be brought about, there
would be but little more in this direction
left to wish for, and that is to disabuse the
mind of the public of that most absurd be-
lief that the chief function of a physician
Is to give something instead of to do
what he sees the necessities of the case
may require-in other words, be conserv-
ator of health, as well as healer of dis
ease -

All Because of Water.


All Because of Water.
Oakland is congratulating itself because
the rival water companies are not only not
ikely to pool issues and put up prices, but
that they are such bitter enemies and have
SAID such venomous things OF each other
that the breach between them cannot be
heaied. Meantime, water IN Oakland IS
cheaper and better than it ever was before.
Ihe very latest report in connection with
the water fight is that John 2. Irish has
taken up the cudgel for the Contra Costa
company, and written letter to the Board
OF Underwriters of San Francisco, in which
he SAID the city of Oakland was in immi
nent danger of destruction by fire because
OF the lnadequacy of the water power In
certain sections-those sections which are
piped by the Dingee Company. The I'M
derWrlters, it is stated were going to take
immediate action and put up insurance
rates. 1t was concluded, however, to make
an investigation, and the matter was put
over until Monday next to give the Dingee
company an opportunity to be heard.
1t is stated now that the Council will on
MONDAY next take steps to have the Dingee
Company present its sworn statement,
according to law, showing the cost of its
works and its receipts and expenditures.
Ihls matter has not heretofore been
pressed against Dingee, but the Contra
Costra Company has insisted that it has
not been fairly treated in the matter.
Mr.. Dingee will, no doubt, make the
statement as required, but he says the old
company is urging the matter simply to
ind out what his rates are, so that they
may cut under them in soliciting patron
age.
