NEW JUDGE
About Browns
 Successor

The papers which came in the last mail contain considerable matter about the new judge of the district court for the First division of Alaska. How ever, there is a conflict of authority as to whether his name is ''Gannison" or "Gunnison." The Times spells the name with an "a," while the Post-In- telligencer uses an ''u."
 However, the man who will succeed Judge Brown is only B years of age, and he has been a lawyer but eight years. He had only one endorsement of a political nature and tha; was from the member of congress of his district. His best recommendations were from President Schurman, of Cornell uni versity, the dean of the law faculty of Cornell, and the United States district and the circuit judges of his district.
 The Oregonian says;
 "Mr. Gunnison graduated from the law school of the Cornell university in 1896, and since that time has been prac- ticing law in Binghamton. In 1898, he was appointed referee in bankruptcy for the district in which Binghamton is situated, and in that position estab- lished an enviable reputation for indus try, ability and a thorough understand ing of the bankruptcy law. He was appointed by the faculty of the Cornell university law school as a lecturer on the subject of bankruptcy"
 Walter E. Clark, Washington corre- spondent of the Post-Intelligencer, says, had the name of L. P. Shackleford, of Juneau, been presented before the posi- tion had been offered to MT. Gunnison, he would have received the appoint ment.

NEW YORK LIFE INSUR-
 ANCE BONDS WITH QUAR- TIED INTEREST.

A combination of insurance and in- vestment under which the insured bond holder
 l. Purchases bond by annual pay ments through period of 10, l5, or 70 years, interest to begin at the end of period of 15 or 20 years:
 2. Is guaranteed an amount equal to at least all the annual payments made, with compound interest in case of death prior to the time when the bonds be- come interest bearing.
 3. Is guaranteed an annual income based upon the cost of the bonds tat tabular annual rates) during the re- mainder of life after 15 or 20 years, as agreed, the face valule of the bonds be- ing payable to his estate at death;
 4. Receives dividend at the begin ming of the interest bearing period, which may be taken in cash or used to increase the annual income from the bonds;
 5. Has the privilege of taking the entire value of bond and dividend in cash at the end of b or 20 years, as agreed, or of using it to purchase an annuity for life,
 Life insurance is best if a man is to die prematurely; an investment is best if a man is to live long; but, as DO man knows his fate, and as insurance and in- vestment are both good in any event, wise combination of the two is desid- eratum for all. The terms upon which bonds of the United States, of cities and railroads must be purchased, put them beyond the reach of many would-be investors, because such securities must be paid for outright in cash. These bonds of the New York Life can be paid for by installments running through a period of years, and provide for insurance as well as investment.

THE FAILURE OF THE CossAcK

One of the minor surprises OF the
war IN the East has been the failure
of the Cossacks to justify their repu-
tat on as a fighting force. The Japan
ese horses are inferior, and II was ex
pected that the hardy little royers Of
the steppcs weular DO great execution
Instead, tfeir failure has caused DIS
appointment. Few OF the Cossaek reg
lments have distinguished themselves
and the experts begin 10 call them
"ant quated.'
The trouble is not necessarily the
lnferlority Of irregular troops 70 regu
lars though that moral will be
drawn BY the wiseacres in shoulder
straps. The Cossack furnishes his
own horse and eauipment-but SO did
the Boer in South Africa, and he put
up a wonderful fight until he was con-
fronted by colonial troops also OF
the irregular stripe. But the Boer
wasp effective because he was not
in the familiar sense--a
dashing. slashing fellow with a sword,
riding Gown his adversaries-but a
mounted infantryman who used his
horse for transport and who could
shoot. sgAnd the colon al was effect
i've because he was good scout.
III the si6tter respect the japanese
horses have shone n the field. Their
information has been admirably &C
curate and they have left no loose EMS
for the Cossacks TO gobble up. In
deed. che Japanese strategists seem
willn to let the other side have the
best cavalry if they can have the best
artillery. And the cayalryman OF the
old type has yet to win spurs in mod
