ALASKAN JUDGES
MAY BE RETAINED
Appointment of Successors of
Wickersham and Brown Is
Postponed indefinitely.
Globe Special Washington Service,

Globe Special Washington Service,
= 1417 G Street.
WASHINGTON, D. c., May 2.-The
president has decided to postpone in
dennltely the appointment of judges in
Alaska to succeed James Wickersham
and Melville w. Brown. 1t is entirely
possible that both judges will be APP
pointed to succeed themselves, al
though the charges against Judge
Brown are much less vague and ire
spons1ble in character than those
against Judge Wickersham; and it is
distinctly out of consideration for both
OF these men that the president pro-
poses to be in no haste about deciding
either for or against them.
"A novel proposition, so far as Alas
ka is concerned, is responsible for this
delay. 1t has been suggested that the
president and the attorney general Sc
lect some person widely known and
respected, who shall go TO Alaska dur
ing the coming summer for the pur-
pose of examining into the judiciary
AFFAIRS of the district. The president
wants to know the facts, and he feels
tnat 1t is next to impossible to get
tnem through the ordinary channels
He has been lied to repeatedly in re-
gard to the Alaska judges this winter,
and the most damaging stories have
been told about the two who are can.
d1dates for reappointment at this time.
Another novel proposition has been
made, which is that henceforth the
men appointed to judgeships in Alaska
hereafter shall be selected with great
care, and that the appointees shall be
assured in advance that good service
will certainly bring promotion on the
bench; that the highest Judicial posi-
tions in the United States are open
to them in due course of time. If this
policy were carried out it would mean
that Alaska would cease to be the po-
lltlcal Botany Bay which several Re
publican administrations have insisted
on making 1t. Walter E. Clark.

ton to the easement window, that it is
loose and draughty, has been overcome
by effective weather strips.
clever scheme for hanging the
drapery has also been devised. This is
rod that, by the ingenious mechan-
ism, when the easement is closed is
held quite close to the wood, but when
1t is desired to open the window one
movement of the hand draws rod and
curtain in retreat parallel to the in
ward movement of the easement.
Quaintness is a craze these DAYS. but
more particularly for out-of-town
houses, mountain cabins, etc. In a
bungalow recently furnished by a very
exclusive decorator handicraft runs
riot, yet it is delightfully."- unusual.
Everything was rough sawed, rough
hewn or split, but on very good deco
rative lines. Some Of the wood had
the back still on; some was twisted
with curious MOSES and fiber, while
one table was the cross section OF q
huge tree.
The general color scheme, consisting
of natures colorings, was equally con-
sistent. For anyone seeking unique
effects this novel idea has much to
recommend it.

VISITORS THRONG
FAIR AT NIGHT
Thousands of Electric Lights
Shine Upon the Ivory
City.

ST. LOUIS, Mo-, May 2.-When the
nrst regular day of the Louisiana Pur-
chase exposition had drawn to a close
a hood OF light suddenly burst forth
from the thousands of electric bulbs
that line the tops Of the main build
ings' and the colonnade Of states sur
mounting festival hall, Illuminating the
plaza of st. Louis and the lagoon.
Throngs of visitors began pouring into
the grounds early in the evening in
anticipation of the illumination feature.
White lights We're utilized and the
main portion Of the grounds took on
even more of a festival appearance
than by daylight, which was enhanced
Dy music from the band at the north
ern end OF the plaza of st. Louis, and
the murmur of the fountains and fall
ing torrents that poured down the cas-
cades into the grand basin at the
southern end. The plaza became the
central point Of interest.
The Lady Managers.
A meeting of the board Of lady man
ayers was called for today. but was
postponed until tomorrow. Tonight
the president, Mrs. Daniel Manning,
and the members of the board assisted
at reception rendered by Gov. Pea
body Of Colorado, to officials and dig
n1taries of the exposition. The in
tramural railroad started running to-
day with limited number of cars.
An autograph picture of Mrs. Theo-
dore Roosevelt, surrounded by photo
graphs Of over fifty society women OF
ST. Louis and Missouri, will decorate
the walls of the tea room of the board
of lady managers building. The pho
tographs, framed in black wood and
each bearing the name of it's owner,
have been placed in position, with the
exception Of that of Mrs. Roosevelt,
which will soon be finally placed.
The first of the exercises of the
opening week was the dedication today

We usually consider that politeness
pays not only the person to whom it
Is directed but also the. person who ex-
erciSeS it, yet an American woman
residing in the French capital is of
the opinion that the extreme polite
ness, with which it is usual to treat
even the humblest person, is a waste
OF much valuable time; because it is
not sufficient to be polite, as we re-
gard this most excellent gift, but there
is a certain form, most elaborate at
that, which it is usual to observe in
treating with interiors.
She lives at a hotel, and bitterly
complains that she loses twenty four
hours out of each week saying good
morning and good evening to the men,
women, little children and dogs about
her" after the elaborate fashion of
the French people.
IF you encounter the same person
twenty-five times in the same day."
she says, you must each time smile
rapturouSly, pause, at least shake
hands if you do not kiss, ceremonious-
ly inquire how he or she is going and
tremendously bid him or her au revoir
at parting.
mot only every man and woman ex-
poets this, but all the little children
toddle UP to you, shake hands and ex-
act the same amount of ceremony.
Then every well regulated French
family has dog who more than likely
occupies a chair and eats off a plate
beside you at the table, so that it is
considered chur1ish if you do not also
stop and tell the dog bon jour and au
revoir dozen times a day, pausing to
take the paw which he is prettily
taught to extend to you.
when the WaSherWoman brings
home your linen there are at least five
minutes spent in tremendously greet
ing and parting from her. In the OPP
GRAFTON of receiving and paying for
linen you exchange mercies and par
dons not fewer than ten times.
ANY other serving persons or trades
man who comes to do business with
you throughout the day you similarly
receive with bon jour, monsieur, and
au revoir, monsieur, and you thank him
and beg his pardon as often as you
can possibly get the words into the
length of time he has to stay.
Then the servants regularly en-
ployed about the house are eternally
appearing and demanding bon jours
and pardons and mercies. This last
word is SO constantly in use among
the French that it keeps up sort of
Kissing sound which disturbs Ameri-
can, nerves little until one grows ac-
cuStomed to it."

PRAYER BOOKS FOR WEDDINGS

The present popular custom of brides
carrying prayer books instead of bou-
quetS has led to a remarkable devel-
opment of what may be termed the
trade of Paternoster row.
Several firms in this noted thorough
fare are making a Speciality of white
prayer books for weddings
Bound in ivory, the wedding prayer
book is an expensive luxury, but
bound in ivorine it costs a modest half
crown. White celluloid is, however, the
most popular material, being light
cheap and an excellent imitation Of
ivory
The mother of pearl prayer book is
also a great favorite with brides. It
is a handsome binding, and is indie
structible. White morocco and padded
calf are also used.
Many Of the white prayer books are
handsomely mounted in silver, and
even gold, but the 1eweled prayer
books presented to the brides of Amer
lean millionaires have not yet made
their appearance in Paternoster row,
private orders to make Jeweled cases
for prayer books.
1T used to be the practice years
ago., said representative of one of
the firms who deal in white prayer
books, ito present the bride with
copy OF the marriage service bound in
white. But now the fashion is to pre-
sent the whole prayer, book. There is
a steady demand for the white bound
books, both for this purpose and for
presentation to confirmation candi-
dates''
Although brides and bridesmaids
carry prayer books to match their
white frocks, society women generally
do not make a practice of reproducing
the tint of their dresses in the covers
of their prayer books.
There is a prayer book bound in
gray suede which serves most pur-
poses, but red or blue leather bind
ings are preferred as a rule.

BE WARY OF THE. ROSE.

Don't you find the single rose be-
hind the ear, when becoming, the most
charming of coiffures? Much depends
upon the expression Of the face, in
which there must be a sentimental
note to produce harmony Otherwise,
do not attempt this arrangement, but
gather the hair so as to create a tri-
angular effect on the top of the head,
taking the width from ear to ear at
the base, or twist up your soft fluffy
puffs with or without some short curled
ends, or roll pompadour so that there
shall be no other line above it, the
front hair alone being visible in an
unbroken line.
