JUDGE FRANK COX"
Morgantown Lawyer Aspires to

one-An Able Man-Monongalia's
Previous Experie nee with the Party.
Hon. Frank Cox is out for a place
on the supreme bench of West Vir-
ginia. He is ambitions to succeed
Judge Nj. II. Dent, of Grafton, whose
term expires next fall year. The
announcement comes as no great
surprise TO many Of his Morgantown
friends. who have long suspected his
aspirations for judicial honors.
The first public announcement OF
his prospective candidacy was m ade
in the Parkersburg News Sunday,
one of the leading Republican organs
of the state. He was seen by New
DOMINION man this morning, and
asked about it.
yes he said, 81 am a candidate
and expect to get it. In my opinion
it is not an office for which an active
campaign should be made, but rath-
Ell one which should be bestowed by
the free vote of the people,

elining years. 1t requires a great
amount of hard work, and man

life to it, if he takes it at all. have
nothing to say publicly except that

"A successor to Judge Dent is to

gala will have an excellent chance
of electing man"
There are five Judges and fire con.
gressional districts, and although
there is no law requiring it, it has
been the custo IN to allot judge &c
each congressional district Judge
Miller's success in the fourth dis
triet is to be elected at the same
time.
Mr.. Cox is beyond question one OF
the ablest lawyers in the second dis
trict, and well deserves this signal
recognition from the Republican par
ty. Whether he will get it or not, is
question. Monongalia has Jared
very badly at the hands of the party
in conventions and in previous
distribution of spoils, and when the
time comes again for the party to
nominate in convention, it is hard to
predict results. Mr.. Cox, however,
is confident, and will make a firm,
digniIied claim for the nomination.

In many Of the tobacconists' shops
perique tobacco chopped into granu-
lated form is displayed for use by pipe
smokers. This is the same perique that
has been grown by Frenchmen and
Spaniards in Louisiana since before our
Revolutionary war. 1t is a jet black,
intensely strong tobacco, famous for
its flavor and its ability to wreck the
nerves.
1t is grown and made in st. James
parish, Louisiana, and the crop only
amounts to about 100000 pounds n
year.
The makers follow the primitive
processes which were in use 100 years
ago. The stems are taken from the
leaves and the latter put into n box
under q heavy gradual pressure. This
causes the juice to run out, even
through the wood Of the boxes. A
gradual process of fermentation and
curing takes place.
At the end of three months the to-
bacco is rolled into carrots" and wrap
ped in cloths tightly bound with ropes.
1t is left in that way for year before
it is ready for market.
The flavor of perique is considered
delicious by all pipe smokers, but Is
too strong. The tendency of smokers is
continually toward lighter and lighter
tobacco, and perique is now used al
most solely for mixing with very mild
tobaccos to flavor 1t.

the value of the box, especially for
fancy apples. 1t Is not only more at
tractive, but is more desirable pack
age for local markets where individuals
want small quantities Of fruit. The
basket is also being more generally
used than formerly for small pack
ages of apples in many of our larger
markets. L, is Il well known fact that
many large dealers buy their fruit in
barrels and then repack in baskets
ard small packages for the retail
trade.
This is true not only with apples.
but with other fruits. This season

The Changed Grizzly.

There are numerous reliable state
ments of grizzly bears having attacked
men, but nowadays the grizzly does
not seek out his human victims, as
there are credible statements that his
forefathers used to do. Neither does
he lie in wait and, pouncing upon a
hunter, tear him into bloody shreds in
delighted fiendishness, as the old time
stories used to tell. The change in
the grizzly's disposition is likened by
veteran hunters to the change in the
character of the white cousin of the
grizzly, the polar bear of the arctics.
When the stations for the Hudson's
Bay company were established, the
diaries of the men there often referred
to the fright of attack by polar bears.
Many navigator in the arctic seas has
been clawed and chewed to death by
polar bears. But for nearly century
the polar bear has not been regarded
as so very fierce, and nowadays 1t is
looked upon as a cowardly beast. AS
sociation with armed men has modi-
fed the polar bears disposition.-Out-

Winter WAYS OF Squirrels.

Gray squirrels do not hibernate, but
seldom leave their nests during tho
very cold weather. On mild days In
winter, however, they come out and
race through the treetops and visit the
large stores of nuts which they gath
cred and hid away in the autumn.
Red squirrels are smaller. but much
harder creatures than the gray ones,
and, although they, too, have snugnests
of cedar bark in the hollow trees, they
use them only Mt night, for no weather
IL so severe as TO keep these little fell
lows indoors. They are about the most
provident OF all the creatures in the
woods. usually storing away under
brush heaps. beneath fallen logs and In
hollow trunks far more nuts than they
can possibly eat in one winter. They
do not put them all in one place, as
rule. they generally have several boards
mt some little distance apart. This Is
wise prccaution, as it sometimes hap
pens that one store IL discovered and
stolen by an enemy, and unless there
WIS another supply TO fall back upon
the squirrels might die OF starvation

ART AND NATURE.
The Changes wrought by Force OF
Methodicnl DEVELOPMENT.


Mcthodicni Development.
There are really very few things I'm
use IN the world today which have not
been materially changed by the forces
of methodical development. Civilized
men and women themselves are the
best examples of this all pervading in
fiuence. The beasts of burden and the
creatures which supply the world with
animal food are remotely different
from what they were in the beginning.
The work OF breeding and training has
added beauty and usefulness to the
birds OF the air and the beasts Of the
field, and the same upward tendency is
noted In these latter days In the how-
ers which gladden. life with their love-
liness and which admonish man per-
petually OF his frailty. Pleasant it is
to know that what may be called the
sophistication of flowers has robbed
them of not whit OF their native
charm. There Is In the sensuous odor
OF the American Beauty the magic to
revive In any mind attuned to the heat
OF nature sweet memories OF tangled
vines and wild roses. creeping and
blooming along country roads. Tho
scent of the rich and full carnation will
call up In n moment tender recollec-
tions OF borders OF spicy little pinks
tended by loving hands that have been
folded for years In drcamless repose.
