In his speech at the dinner of JUS
tice Harlan the other night Senator
Hoar we'll said: There is everything
in the office of judge of the Supreme
court to satisfy the Hottest desire of
which human nature is capable. In it
unite dignity, authority, permanence,
security, honor, lasting fame, the most
lofty of intellectual occupations, rem
dered delightful by lofty intellectual

If Oklahoma is turned into q State
somebody will lose a good fat job. BY
the original act Of congress the terrific
rial secretary gets a salary of $1,000 and
allowances for one clerk and Office ex-
penses. But succeeding legislatures
have seen fit to give all the fees of the
Office to the secretary and add those of
the office of the commissioner of insur-
ance. The fees of these offices are ire
mendous. The secretary gets $1,000 for
each charter issued. FIe gets all the no.
tarys commissioners fees and fees for
issuing acquisitions by the governor for
prisoners that go out of the territory,
and 95 per cent. of all the fees of the
insurance business of the territory
which has grown enormous. The SAL
airy and the fees of the office, as it now
is organized, have reached the princely
sum of $4,000 to $4,000 a year.

In France a novel way of catching
fish is being tested by anglers. A tiny
mirror is attached to the line near the
baited hook. The assumption is that a
fish, when it sees itself in a glass, will
conclude that some other fish is trying
to carry off the bait, and will make
haste to secure the tempting morsel it
self, the result being that it will speed
lily be caught on the relentless hook.
From experiments which have been
made there seems to be some founda-
ton for this assumption. At any rate,
some anglers say that they catch more
fish when they use the little mirror
than they ever caught before.
