AFTER HIM
War Made On WickerSham
 Also

A Washington special of March Sl says that Marshal Frank Richards, of Nome: Potter c. Sullivan, a lawyer of that place, now of Seattle, and others have planned a bitter campaign against the reapPointment of Judge Wickersham and they have looked to Senator Aukeny for support. In his recommendations to the president. .hOw- ever, Senator Ankeuy wished to have Ex-NIayor Humes of SeaJlle appointed as judge of the proposed new district and not in place Of Judge Wickersham.
 The form of this recommend ton may be changed, in case the new dis trict is not created. The hostility of Richards and NIT. Sullivan to Judge Wickersham is due, of course, to the judges action in conyictiug Richards of contempt Of court and jury fixing and in severely scoring Sullivan in open court while WickerSham was temporarily sitting at Nome in 1901. Richards and Sullivan, although not in Wickersham's district, are bent on re- venge.
 Nathan V. Harlan, district attorney in the Third district, is also acandidate for a judgeseiP and papers in his behalf have been filed with the department of justice.
 Senator Foster auj Representative CuShman and Jones ha- e recommended to the president that Judge Wicker sham be reappOinted.

A HenIthfuI Costume.

When the Fraser highlanders landed in North America in 1T57, 1t was pro posed to change the dress on account of the cold winters and hot summers. The officers successfully opposed this and were ultimately justified by the highlanders being the healthlest sol diers in the army. In the campaign in Holland in lT94 some regiments lost as many as 800 from disease, but the Black Watch, which had 300 recruits in it's ranks, had only twenty-five cas- ualties, including the killed in battle.

 NEW YORK, Feb. 2.--Sone pointed things were said by the Rev. Dr. W. $. Rsinsfor1 at the annual meeting of the Young Women's Christian association. He seemed particularly to object to the ''lady board member" He said:
 What we need is not one Institution such as yours, but half dozen of them. can't exaggerate the needs of your own sex in this city.
 Money is not so much needed as women. The sixteen-year-old girl goes out in the world to earn her living, and she is told to have good time. She keeps on having good time until by the time she is twenty-five she is not fit to be good wife.
 we need the girl who is willing to give up her afternoon teas and fancy dress balls and tbeater parties to labor with those of her own age in the spirit of true charity and gentleness."
