 The studous man, whose back gets creseent-shaped by much bending over books, fails to realize, until his nose nar- rowly escapes contact with the pave ment. that he is not walking erect; he Immediately repairs the error by taking an unnaturally upright attitude that lasts for about half a minute. Poets, especial ly going about trying to think rhymes or of new simile for love, grow care less and walk into people and things so often that an apology jumps from their lips when 1t Is not required.
 The habit of walking backward adopted by some in the crowded streets when something attracts their attention is one that cannot be recommended for general use, and the awkward carrying of an umbrella is ill-calculated to charm the public eye. These are tricks which to those who perform them seem right and proper; they probably look upon the or dinary mode of thoughtful procedure as eccentric.

 An overcoat Is no sort of aid to a man in walking; its presence helps to create wonder in the male mind that women encumbered by skirts, should be able to walk at all.

 For several years before the death of Pope Leo, many of the wealthy Catholic laymen of this city used all the influence they could exert at Rome to have the late Archbishop Corrigan made a cardinal but their efforts were fruitless. They attribut- ed their non-success to the antagonlsm which existed between Archbishop Ire land and the New York prelate, and obe- diently acquesced in the non-action of Rome. With the accession of the pres ent pope. they believed that the way was clear to have both Archbishops Ireland and Farley elected to the cardinalate. Now, comes the report that Cardinal Gib- bons Is the one who has been blocking the way all along, and 1t will require something more than a denial on his part to remove the suspicion under which he rests. There Is good deal of talk over the matter among the members of the rich Catholic club, the echoes of which are intended to reach the Vatican In some form. New York Is one of the two or three richest archdiocese in the world.

MONROE'S DOCTRINE ON
 THE VICE PRESIDENCY
BY PHINEAs FLETCHER.

dency and while in it to enounce and give his name to a doctrine that in its im- portance stands next to the great Decla- ration itself.
 In the evolution of our political history there Is to be observed another wide de- parture from the principle of the earlier days, namely in allowing the candidate for President, whoever he may be, to se- lect the person who is to make the cam paign with him. This, surely, is not in accordance with the theory of our insti- tutions, that the people, through their resentatives, shall select the authorities to rule over them. A national convention is chosen to nominate a candidate for President and vice-Presdent Does it not fail in the performance of the duty deyolved upon it, when, having named the candidate for the first office, it in- vites the person, thus chosen, to inform 1t whom 1t shall select for the second To consult him may be proper, but to al- low him to dictate the nomination, even when it is against their judgment, is as- suredly a betrayal of their trust, an ab- dication of their functions, @ violation of the strict rule of representative political procedure.
 The history of the country contains re- peated warning that the second office Is very nearly as important as the first one. Five times has the vice-President been called to the succession owing to death, owing to three of the greatest crimes that have ever been committed. In two, at least, of these cases. the suc- cessors departed very widely from the policies of those that preceded them, and in one of them the conflict which was nd uyQq n Ob bufs far fc which it is not well ever, if possible to avert it, to submit our institutions. As- suredly, the Monroe doctrine on the vice Presidential question is the correct one that no one should be selected for the great office "who has not given unequiv- ocal proofs of what his principles really are; who has not marked a line of con duct so decisively that you can tell what he will be by what he has been.''

Seized 5000 Head of Game.

Cleveland, Jan. 27.-Game wardens
seized 1000 head of game at the Glib
bons-Pinkett market, Monday. There
were 500 wild ducks, 1000 quail, to.
say nothing of grouse, snipe, wood
cock and other game now out of sea-
son. The fact that Cleveland hotels
and clubs serve game daily excited
the wardens' suspicious, and the raid
followed some quiet detective work.
The penalty is $25 fine for each piece
of game in the offending firms pos
session. This, if enforced, would
cost the Gibbons-Pinkett Co. $4,000.
Pinkett says he will fight the case
and test the law.
