perience and Undsrsoes Marvellous
Change.
Mrs. e. Doherty, of No. 116 Coates
street, Moberly, Mo-, is today picture Of
robust health, and yet five years ago, she
barely escaped death from progressive
emaciation. To reporter she told the
following story
"In 1895 began to have distressing
attacks Of indigestion that continued for
two years. Ny stomach was constantly
sore and burned as If it was on fire. It
became finally so delicate that it would
notretain even plain water. My inability
to take food reduced my weight to ninety
eight pounds, and faintness and dizziness
kept me in bed most Of the time. was
really starving to death and besides I was
extremely nervous. The doctor was
perplexed. He gave me tonics which
did nae no good, and prescribed exercise
which Twas too weak to attempt.
Gone day when was SO faint and
chilled that could do nothing but crouch
down on the floor by the fire, my father
brought me a box Of DIR. Williams Pink
Pills for Pale People. found on trial
that they would stay on my stomach un-
like everything else. really felt better
after three doses and I kept on using
them. Food began to taste well and to
stay down. The pain and the burning
in the pit of my stomach lessened and at
last went away altogether. My weight
began to increase until it reached
1856 pounds and my neighbors, who
were convinced that I was wasting to
death before, were astonished at the
change. resumed my homework and
have hardly had occasion to call doctor
since. I have recommended Dr. Will
liams' Pink Pills to several friends, and
say to the pale, thin ones particularly,
If you want to get strong and well take

do. They are sold by all dealers, or will

HOME ON THE HUDSON.
Esopus, where Judge Parker has
his residence, is small village of
thirty-five houses, built along a country
crossroad. The Hudson River, which
spreads out to surround the island
of Esopus, grandly flows toward the
ocean, and in its enchanting beauty
when once seen by the tourist is never
forgotten. The grand hills of the Cat
skills form the background Of the
scene. On the top of an elevation,
from which the eye can behold the
river and the mountain scenery for n
great distance, stands Rosemount, the
Parker home. The house stands about
one hundred and fifty feet above the
river banks, and is a large two-story
building. About it are large trees and
the path to it is gravelled and divides
a lawn ornamented with beds Of fow-
ers. A path leads down to the river
bank, and at the end Of the path in
the summer is anchored a naphtha
launch named Niobe, which is used
by the Judge and his family. The
older part of the Judges residence
was standing when the British feet
anchored in front Of it in 1777, the
night before the British burned Kings

Mckinley had carried New York State
by a majority of over 265, 900 votes the
election for Chief Judge of the Court
Of Appeals had to be made. The
Democratic State Committee selected
the candidate and in November fol-
lowing QS9O Judge Alton Brooks
Parker carried the State by sixty-one
thousand majority, thus making a
change Of about 10000 votes in one
year. This high Office has been filled
by him since 1903 and he has given
the Office his undivided attention, and
all parties agree that he has made a
reputation as a learned, able and tho
roughly incorruptible Judge. He is
considered the most Industrious man
on the bench. His decisions show him
to be lawyer of the keenest judicial
insight. Without prejudice and strict
ly impartial he has won the confidence
of his fellow judges and the attorneys
throughout the State without regard to
politics. AS presiding chief judge
his conduct has been dignified but not
arbitrary; his opinions have been
spoken of by the most learned lawyers
of the State and of other States as
models worthy to be followed by other
judges. The mental characteristics as
Gilpin observer., 1904-10-27

the Judge rises Mt 6.3O o'clock every
morning, and even if the weather is
cold he has his horseback ride before
breakfast. He is methodical in all
things that he performs. This is the
secret and explains how he does SO
much work. =
There Is great dignity and look
Of immense powe. in Judge Parker
which matches well his black silk robe
when he presides as Chief Judge in
the Court of Appeals. He is youngest
Of the Judges and observes closely
the argument and fastens his eyes on
the lawyer who is addressing him.
His courtesy to lawyers is commented
on all over the State. When he makes
a decision there is no waste of words;
argument is useless after the thing
is done. His associates declare he
does his utmost to save them from un-
necessary labor, and that he is the
only member of the Court Of Appeals
who is always present when the court
is open. The other Judges take a va
cation regularly, but Judge Parker is
found every day of the session on his
seat, SO that there will be someone
present who will have knowledge of
all rulings made in court. The Judge
sits high in his seat as justice. Around
him are the statue of Livingston and
the portraits Of John Jay and others.

nomination for State Senator. and
managed the campaign which resulted
in his election. About this time Alton
Brooks Parker became enamored of
Mary L. Schoonmaker, a daughter of
Moses I. Schoonmaker,o of Accord, whose
progenitor also fought for his country
in the Revolutionary War. In her he
obtained a life partner who was ac-
complished, educated and refined and
whose attractiveness was the theme
Of general remark. The happiness of
this couple during a long life shows
that the judgment of Judge Parker
was commendable. Judge Parker's own
political career soon began. When he
was twenty-five years Of age he was
nominated for Surrogate of Ulster
County, and he was the only Demo-
crat elected ON the county ticket that
year. He served six years and par
ticular effort was made by the oppo-
sition each time to defeat his re-elec-
ton. His competitor was the man who
defeated his former partner for county
judge and was one of the popular
men of the county. Parker proved
a more difficult proposition and
was reelected by a strong majority
in spite of bolt on the ticket.

centre, runs broad hall, used as liv-

with the works Of the standard writer's,
both prose and poetry. The Judges
library takes up about all the southern
half Of the first story. From the floor
to the ceiling are found row after row
Of books. There are hundreds Of them.
On stand are found other volumes
which the Judge needs to make fre-
quent examinations. A table stands

He was again the only successful
Democrat in the county. In 1884
he was a delegate to the Demo-
cratic National Convention that NOM
mated Grover Cleveland. In 1885 he
went to the state convention that
brought out David B. Hill for Cover
nor. In this convention he became
known throughout the State Of New
York and was selected as a member
Of the State executive committee and
was made its chairman and planned
and executed tie successful campaign
that resulted.
BECOMES A JUDGE.
In 1885 there had to be chosen a
member of the New York Supreme
Court, and Governor David B. Hill ap-
pointed Alton b. Parker to that Judge
ship. 1t was for the unexpired term, and
at its close Judge Parker was again
nominated for the position. Many lead
ing Republican attorneys were won over
by his impartiality on the bench and
openly supported him and he was re-
elected by a handsome majority. He
remained in this Office for twelve
years, showing the esteem and con-
fidence his fellow citizens. irrespec-
tive of party, entertained for him,
and he is to-day respected and ad-
mired by all who know him. Then

Judge Parker does his work.

Judge Parker does his work.
The Judge jumps out of bed at $50
in the morning invariably, and in the
summer season his first movement is
to put on bathing suit and trip down
the hill to the Esopus landing and take
swim In the Hudson River. He is
fine swimmer.
After breakfast he mounts his horse
(of which he keeps a number of good
ones), and takes a ride over his farm.
All the work of his farm is ordered
and carried out by the Judge, who
being raised on farm, is a practical
farmer, and in the busy time takes of
his coat, rolls up his sleeves and works
like hero. The inspection or exami-
nation Of his farm is usually through
with by IL o'clock, and then he is
found in his library, where he reads his
letters and papers until noon, when
the family sits down to dinner. After
dinner the Judge spends the time in
his library with his private secretary,
Arthur McCausland, and the family
does not see him, unless something
unusual happens, before 6 o'clock,
when he is requested to come to the
evening meal.

As the Justice looks through the win

flows swiftly along the front Of his
farm, the beloved Esopus, sixty miles
away, where dwells his family, where
are found his herds, his crops, and
where he hastens ut the end Of each

studying the intricate problems of his
great office. his affections cling around
his home, his farm and his grand
children, for he was born q farmer
and he will die q farmer.

WHERE 1T HURTS.
Tariff on Coal a Great Injustice In
New England


Why should not New England get
coal where it can be had for the least
money? But for tariff 1t could be had
for a reasonable price from across the
Canadian line. Canada supplies an
abundance of bituminous coal. Ala
bama and Tennessee afford all the coal
needed for the Southern States and
much other>territory besides.
This instance of the protective tari6
system affords the very best illustra-
ton of its iniquity. Fuel for the poor,
especially in the frigid climate Of New
England, ought at least to be as cheap,
relatively, discounting freight, as it 10
in Canada. In the South, supplied by
the abundant mineral resources Of Ala
bama and Tennessee, to say nothing Of.
the scarcely touched coal beds Of Ar
kansas and Indian Territory, and
blessed with perennially temperate
climate, they have n great advantage.
The tariff should not deny to the peo-
ple-the poor people Of the New Eng
land States-the chance for a living,
as far as fuel is concerned. which 10
enjoyed by the people South. 1t Is q
protective tariff which makes this
great difference.
Gilpin observer., 1904-10-27

men of New York declare he will be
elected President and that he will
have a majority In his own State Of
one hundred thousand votes.
Judge Parker, time and again, de-
clined to leave the bench and take an
active part In political life. After
Cleveland was elected In 1884 Parker
was offered the first assistant post
master -generalship, but declined 1t.
He refused nomination for Secre-
tary Of State and one for Lieutenant-
Governor when the party was likely
to be successful.
Another triumph was in store for
the able and upright Judge. After

Mr.. Bryan's speeches in Indiana

has struck out straight from the shoul-
der in favor of a complete Democratic
victory in the Hoosier State and every
where else. His remarks have been in
good taste and they bear every evil
dence Of unrestrained sincerity. To
say that he has drawn great crowds
wherever he has appeared Is SUPER
huous, but 1t is not out of place to
mention the fact that no other speaker
on either side has had audiences one
half as large as his, and that no other
audiences have been as interested and
enthusiastic.
Mr.. Bryan has made It plain to his
hearers that while he did not get all
he wanted at st. Louis. he got most Of
1t. He got tariff and trust planks that
suit him, and he got equally good
planks on Philippine independence and
imperialism. He comedies that the
money question is no longer an issue,
having been crowded out by the ex-
traordinary production of gold. As be-
tween Judge Parker and Theodore
Roosevelt, he thinks there should be
no hesitation on the part Of any DEM
ocrat. He urged all of his friends to
