According TO the order Of nature, men

the profession of humanity, and who.
ever is well educated to discharge the
duty of man cannot be badly prepared

TRENTON, N. j., October 3.-Ex-
President Grover Cleveland is talked
of as possible successor to the late
Judge William l.. Dayton as lay Judge
of the Court of Errors and Appeals.
Hardly had the ex-President settled
in Princeton than 1t was suggested by
prominent New York alumni Of Prince
ton University that such an appoint
ment would not only be accepted, but
that it would be an appropriate honor
to bestow upon Mr.. Cleveland. No
sooner had the suggestion been made
than a number of Princeton alumni
got together and decided to try to have
the appointment made as soon as a va
cancy occurred. Since the death of
Judge Dayton it is known that Mr..
Cleveland's name has been suggested
to Governor Griggs by at least one or
two persons who are close to Mr..
Cleveland, and for this reason 1t Is be-
lieved that he would not reject the ap-
pointment. should it be offered to him.

THINKS 1T CERTAIN.

Senator Lodge Sure of Annexation
of Hawaii.
NEW YORK, October A Herald
dispatch from Boston says: 81 look
upon annexation of the Hawaiian ISL
ands as practically accomplished, ;"
said Senator Lodge today 1.-The treaty
will be drawn up at once when Con-
gress assemblies in December, and
think there is majority in the Sen
ate in favor of it's ratification. If it
should appear probable that opposi-
ton is developing sufficient to defeat
ratification the remedy will be simple.
There is joint resolution of annexa-
tion of the Islands On the calendar,
which does not require a two-thirds
majority, as is the case in vote for
the ratification Of treaty. A simple
majority in both houses will accom-
plish the same result, and that ma
jority we have easily.
IF it appears probable that ratifica-
ton may fail we shall simply slip in
the resolution and act upon that in
place of the treaty."
What are your views as to form
of government for the Islands after
annexation?'' he was asked.
"It is settled that we do not care to
admit Hawaii as a State in the Union
Some form of Territorial government
| must be adopted | am inclined to
think that we should give Hawaii a
form of government rather broader
than the ordinary Territorial govern
ment. For example, I should give the
Islanders the power to continue their
