Next year Judge Moses Hallett of
the United States District Court will
have arrived at the age of seventy,
and will be eligible to retirement nn'
der full pay. There is considerable
speculation among attorneys as to
whether Judge Hallett will avail him
self of the rule and quit the bench he
has so long occupied. 1t is generally
believed the Judge will retire. as he is
man of large means and important
personal affairs, and members of the
bar are already talking about his sue
cessor.

only recently that the plans became in
such shape that the erection of the
temple was assured Thirty thousand

After great deal OF correspond
ence, which has lasted year or more,
it has been decided that the silver ser
vice, which the citizens of Denver pur-
chased for the cruiser Denver, will be
presented when the vessel reaches
Galveston, about the middle OF July.
1t is expected that a number of Den
ver citizens will go to that city to take
part in the presentation services.
Mayor Speer has telegraphed to Mayor
Austin of Galveston that the presenta-
ton would be made there. The cruis-
er will leave the Philadelphia yards on
July 1st and will proceed to the Texas

tered.
