Captain Landals.

History tells us nothing Of Captain
Landais, except that he wasa French
man, whose bad temper had led to his
discharge from the French navy, and
who, Mt the time he was placed in
command Of the Alliance, was 80 un-
popular that it was difficult to get
Americans to serve under him. Cap
tain Landais showed great jealousy
OF Jones in regard to his leadership in
the squadron against Great Britain,
and had shown insubordnation and
even mutinous spirit. In the IA

to the Scraps, was pouring deadly
shot into the encmys vessel, the Al

and, sailing around the struggling
combatants, delivered several broad
sides in such way as TO injure both
vessels equally. On board the Rich

an officer mortal v wounded. The
opinion generally prevailed afterwards
that Landais fired into the Richard for
the purpose of killing Jones and com

THE FLIGHT OF THE YEARS.

When one by one the silent stately years
Glide like pale ghosts beyond our ycarnlng
sight.
vainly We stretch our arms to stay their
Hight
SO soon, so swift, they pass toendlcss night,
We hardly learn To name them,
To praise them or 10 flame them,
To know their shndowy faces
Ere wc see their empty plnrrs,
Only once the glad spring grrets them,
Only once fair summer meets them,
only once the autumn glory
Tells for them its mystic story,
Only once the winter hoary
Wears for them its robes OF light,
Years leave their work half done; like men,
alas,
With shcayes ungathcred to their graves they
pass
And are forgotten. What they strive 10 do
Lives for q while In memory 81 a few,
Then over all Obllvion's waters flow
The years are buried in the long ago

making the world in general believe
they alone knew enough to order n

course, men are never tired Of anus

There are. it IL estimated, 800, COO

NEW ATTORNEY GENERAL
PROBABLY OFFERED TO GOVERNOR
GRIGGS OF NEW JERSEY.
he viii Not Deny It and Close Friends Say
the Position Has Been rendered
to Him,

Washington, Dec. 3.-From sources the
authority of which would not be doubt
ed, it is learned that the position of At
tOrney General to succeed Mr.. McKenna,
who Will be nominated to the United
States Supreme bench to succeed Justice
Fields, has been offered to Gov. Griggs,
of New Jersey, and that he has con-
sented to accept 1t is understood that
his appointment was urged by Fice-Pres-
dent Hobart. Owing to the absence of
President Mckinley, it is impossible to
confirm this statement absolutely.
Gov. John w. Griggs arrived home
tonight from Washington. He was seen
soon after he reached his residence, but
refused to talk about the report that he
was TO be the next attorney general. He
would not say that the office has been
offered to him; neither would he deny it.
Close friends of the Governor and of
Vice-President Hobart, who was seen
at the Hamilton Club later, expressed
the belief that the cabinet position has
been rendered the Governor and added
that he would probably accept it.
Gov. John VIM. Griggs, was born in
Newton, Sussex county, n. j., July 10.
1919. he was graduated from La Fay
cite College. in 1868, and became a law
student in the office of Hon. Robert
Hamilton at Newton. In 1871 he re-
moved to Paterson where he entered the
office of the late Socrates Tuttle. He
was admitted to the bar that year and
together with Mr.. Tuttle, formed the
firm of Tuttle and Griggs. A few years
later he opened an office on his own ac-
count. He was elected to the Assembly
in 1919 and was reelected two years
later. In the latter year the house was
equally divided and he became leader on
the Republican side, and this brought
him forward. He was re-nominated for
another term, but was defeated. He
was elected counsel for the Board of
Free-holders of Passaic county and city
counsel of Paterson, which office he held
until 1882 when he was elected to tine
State Senate. He was reelected State
Senator and became president of the
Senate in 1886. He was delegate at
large to the Republican national conven.
ton in 1888. In 1895 Gov. Vents. OF
New Jersey, offered Mr. Griggs a place
on the Supreme court bench for that
State, which Griggs declined to accept.
Next year he was elected Governor of
New Jersey.
His wife was Miss L. Elizabeth Trice,
of Cleveland Ohio. He has two sons
and four daughters.
