THE BIRTHPLACE OF PARKER.

At last the da'e and location of
Judge Parker's birth are settled. His
mother, who lives in Derby, Conn,
contradicts the testimony of the
National Cyclopedia of American
Biograhy by producing the family
Bible, where it is recorded that her
son Alton was born on May IA, 1862,
on a farm about four miles from Cort-
land, Cortland county, N. Y and the
farm is still in the possession of the
family.
The statement that Judge Parker
was born in Worcester probably
originated from the fact that his
ancestors came from there.
The venerable Mrs. Parker adds by
way of explanation of her boys sue
cess IN life: 81 began to use the
switch on Alton when he was very
Young, and I attribute much Of his
goodness as boy and his success as a
man to these early corrective measures.
| His father left the disciplining of the
children largely to me and I never
shit ked what I believe to be my duty,
however painful the ordeal.
Judge Parker is not spbynx, as
the republicans profess to believe.
From the moment that his nomina'
ton was seriously considered the
bearing of Judge Parker has beer
discreet, d'gn'fed and in every way
creditabIe to the high judicial Office ht
holds, and he has thus given the coun
try assurance of his excellent judgmen
and rare self RESTRAINT. If the nomina
ton for TIE presidency is given hin
by his party it can be said in all trutl
that he sought it by no political trick
of speech or ac,s.
Upon the contrary, while he quietl.
aud orderly discharged his duties .
chief Justice of the highest court il
his State the office sought him.

the uncertainty whether she shall see a
sweet girl or a brave boy face beside her
on the pillow adds zest to her expectancy.
