Parker and the Presidency
BY MAURICE M. MlNTON.

The rnapimity with which leading
democrats all over the country are
concentl ating upon Chief Judge Alton
Brooks Parker of the New York Court
OF ADI calls as their choice for the
democratic Presidential nomination in
the next national campaign is unprece-
denied In our political history. From
no one Within his own party or from
without is heard word of protest,
objection, censure, condemnation. On
the contrary, there arises on all sides
a swelling chorus of approval and
laudation which has seldom, If ever,
been heard in the case of any man
from Washington down whose name
vas mentioned as the possible chief
magistrate of the republic. 1t Is a
splendid tribute to the intellectual
ability, the moral worth, the fiawless
character Ct. this eminent jurist and
statesman. In this, great office, and
in the less er ones that preceded it,
he has borne himself'so well, walked
the path of duty 50 uprightly, fearless
~ and 1nodestly that neither envy nor
malice can find one weak spot In the
trmor Of his private and public integ.
rlty.
An old democratic maxim, old, in
fact, as cur democracy itself, has it
that the office should seek the man."

MANCHESTER CLOTH MARKET.
Business During Past Week Was Con
Quoted With Difficulty.

Manchester March 1-Business on the
cloth market during the past week was
difficult. All sections of the buyers were
very cautious owing to doubts as to the
maintenance of values, though a few
pressing orders were negotiated. The dis
locations in the telegraph system during
the storm greatly interfered with bust
ness. There were occasional sorting up
transactions with China in staples as the
engagements in shirtings for India will
soon run out. There We're numerous Of

A GIRL WHO CANNOT COOK
BY ALFR ed CECIL.

Among preachers short of subjects for
a sensational sermon, reformers whom a
public weary of their fads and theories
of human regeneration have frowned into
silence, and the great mob of notoriety
seekers in general, the fashion just now
seems to be to inveigh against the girl
of the period. In this they evince a GER
tain unwonted soundness of Judgment, for
girls are at all times and under all cir
cumstances the most interesting objects
in the world. Men and women alike de-
light in talking and reading about them,
their beauty and accomplishments, their
engagements and their marriages, adj
ventures and misadventures triumphs
and defeats. joys and sorrows and what
ever else of comedy or tragedy, shadow
or sunshine, enters into their lives. To
this universal interest In the falrest part
of creation we owe the Niagara of dis
sertation that now tumbles upon us from
pulpit and platform with all its phosphor-
escent froth and foam. Day after day
come homiles and philipplcs about the
girls who smoke the soothing cigarette,
who gamble. who sip too deep of the
sparkling champagne and plunge into a
hundred other follies and indiseretions
Possibly there are young women in So
ciety and out of 1t that thus Offend but
that they are the majority or anywhere

time no one can be made to believe

From out the west comes a scorching in
dictment of the girl who cannot or will
not cook. The Trainer of 1t writes the
word reverend before his name, and In
his canonical opinion the girl who does
not possess this Indispensable accom-
pllshment, as he character1zes 1t, Is not
"a true woman" He will undoubtedly
find the majority of men to agree with
him. But If he searches long and far
enough he will discover a great army of
dissenters not only among women, but
among his own sex. Cookery. | know, has
