THE WELL INFORMED, WHO
i believe in getting the sweets OF life
as they journey along this rocky path
way Of our existence, know full well
that the inner man must be well provi-
ded for. or life will be dismal failure.
They know that the stomach is the
thermome or, as it were, Of our daily life,
when it is well nourished with good and
wholesome foods, we enjoy life. things
look prosperous, and we feel happy, on
the contrary, when not well furnished, !,
everything seems dismal and dark. Our
friends think there is something the
matter with US, and there is, we are not
complying with the laws Of nature.
Now the logical conclusion OF this is.
that we should always provide ourselves
with the best the market affords.

oTportune to as;ltate the question and bring
the subject again before Congress of the
erection of a building of justice east of

Falls Church petit,on.

The town council Of Falls Church, Va,
at meeting Monday night adopted a res
olution petitioning the Commissioners of
the District of Columbia to recommend to
Congress to grant the necessary authority
to the Washington, Arlington and Falls
Church electric railway to enter the Dis
trict by way Of the Aqueduct bridge. The
resolution sets forth that the railway COM
pany has constructed its road from Ross
bridge to Falls Church. and that it is op-
Grating the same on an hourly schedule. It
also points out the lack Of direct communi-
cation by reason of the road not crossing
the bridge, and asks that this authority be
recommended to Congress to permit it to
convey Its passengers directly into the civ
OF Washington at the north end of the
lAqueduct bridge. The resolution is drawn
up In the name of the people of Falls
Church and Of the country intervening he
tween that town and the District.

May Join st, johns.

Since the resignation Of Rev. W. z. l..
Ward from the rectorship of St. Michaers
and All Angels Church, the impression has
become current that the vestry may ask to
be taken back into the parish of ST. Johns
Church, of which 1t was originally a part.
1t Is understood that at a congregational
meeting last night the calling of young
clergyman of this city was agreed upon,
but 1t was also decided, as it is stated, that
in case of the declination Of this minister
to serve ST. Johns vestry would be formal
ly applied to to receive the membership OF
st. Michael's under it's care once more st.
Michaefs became an Independent organiza-
tion between three and four years ago,
when Rev. C. w. B;spham assumed charge
as rector. 1t is said that there is an ele-
ment in the congregation which would
deeply regret the discontinuance of sSt. Mi
chaers as an independent parish.

Judge Bradley to TRY Criminal Cases
lin Case ~fGudxe COx's
Retie.zment.-

While 1t Has notsyet been definitely, de-
termined It is undefStood- that the only
change In the preseat assignment Of the
members OF the Supreme Court of the Dis
trict for the comings year will be the trans
fer OF Judge Cole from Criminal Court No.
l; to Circuit Court No. 1. BY such transfer
Judge Bradley, who has presided over the
latter tribunal, will take the place Of Judge
Cole in Criminal Court No. 1y....-.- ..
Should this be the only change in the
present assignment of judges. and there
Is little doubt that. 1t will be the only one
made, the assignment for 1897 will be as
follows: Equity Court No. /, Judge Cox;
No. 2, Judge Hagner; Circuit Court No. l,
Judge Cole; No. 2, Judge McComas; Crimi-
nal Court No. l. Judge Bradley; No. 2
Chief Justice Bingham; District Court,
Judge Cox, Probate Court. Judge Hagner;
Court In General Term, the chief justice
and any one or more of the associate JUS
tees.
Should Judge Cox retire, and it Is gen.
orally believed that he will some time after
the 4th of next March. a change in the
above assignmentat would, Of course. be
necessary. II he should, then. following
the usual custom of the court in the mat
ter, Judge Cox's successor would be as
signed to one Of the Criminal Courts and

Wouid oe taken by one OF the older men,
bers OF the. District Supreme Court:
Judge Cole has presided during the most
OF the time since his appointment in Feb
ruary. 1888 in the Criminal Court, although
he mas also frequently presided In the Cir
cult. Equity and Probate branches of the
District Supreme Court; also sitting in the
Court or Appeals. His conduct in the Crime
inal Court, while meeting the approval of
the law-abidjng citizens of the District
mas caused him, naturally enough, to be
feared and dtsliked by the criminal classes
therefore, his departure from the Criminal
court Will be matter. of qualification to
the latter class. But the exchange of
courts between Judge Cole and Judge Brad
ley VIII prove for the criminal classes a
case OF jumping from the frying pan into
the hre: At least, such is the belief of
those who recall Judge Bradley's service in
the criminal Court and his severe senten-
ces. Particularly will Judge Bradley's ef-
Icrts 10 stop the too frequent shooting and
cutting affairs be remembered, when he
announced from the berch that in all such
cases he would impose the maximum SEN
tence-eight years Imprisonment in the
renitentiary at hard labor. Judge Bradley
faithfully pursued such a course, with the
result that such crimes were thereafter
materially decreased. -.-,->e'-''-

since he rode down Pennsylvania avenue
at the head Of the commonweal army, is
here once more for a day or so. Mr.. Coxey
Is more earnest than ever In his belief In
his plan for the issue of non-interest-bear-
ing bonds on public improvements. In ac-
cordance with the general invitation of the
committee on banking and currency for
currency relief plans. he will present his
scheme, which allows any state, county,
city or township to receive an issue of
paper money based on public improvements
by filing at the treasury a bond, payable in
twenty annual installments, without inter-
est. Mr. Coxey has already scattered nearly
a million copies Of his pamphlet, Cause
and Cure" in the last few years. and is
now arranging plans by which an immense
issue. running up probably to three million
copies, will be sent broadcast over the
country. The commonweal leader in the
last campaign stood with the populist party
and supported Bryan and Watson. He was
never an enthusiast, however, over free sill

some strong denunciations of the course
pursued by Senator Butler and the other
leaders Of the populist party. Today Mr.
Coxey, in talking to a Star reporter. said
that In the future he intended to devote his
entire time to presenting the advantages
OF MS plan to the country. He believed that
the populist party was divided SO badly
that reconciliation between the factions
was an imp ossibility, and that the outcome
would be the formation of q new party.

called for this purpose. to meet at St. Louis

Free silver" said Mr. Coxey, was only
deceptive cry at the best, put out to de-
ceive the people, and the only true relief
can come through a decentralization Of both
silver and gold. The populist party was be-
trayed by its leaders in the last campaign
IN shameful manner, and Senator Aliens
