 paper recently received. contains the picture or S. $. Bellesfield. who at the late election was. chosen as a reprcser- tative from that district in the Colo rado general assembly. Mir. Bellesfield is a very fine appearing and talented young man and is quito well known here among the typographical frater- nity. asi he spent several months in Phoenix a few years ago. in the em- ploy of The Republican as linotype operator. He has been connected with the Pueblo papers since leaving here and was president of the Pueblo Typo graphical Union until he entered upon the race for office. when. under the rules Of the union. he had to resign his official position. The worst that can be said about Mfr. Bellesfield is that he Is a democrat. and remained so even after living in this glorious ciI- mate on diet of Republican milk. but his democracy did not seem to be such a handicap in Colorado this year for he got the largest vote of the six can didates in his district.

MT. Erward Lauterbach. of New
 York city. in a letter to the author says:
 "If I advised the young man to en- ter the law. it would be only in the event that knew him to be possessed of unusual and exceptional qualifica-
 tions for the profession. and especially because I believe him to be possessed of the attributes necessary to enable
 him to be an advocate in the courts.
 There Is an unusual scarcity of law yers fully equipped for the actual trial of important cases. There is and will be for years to come glut in all other branches of the profession.
 The qualifications referred to would consist in part of a good presence. a studious temperament. a knowledge of human nature, and the gift of elo- quence
 - "If l advise the young man not to enter the law. it would be because the profession. more than any other, is. and will be for many years to come. an ever-cTowded one.
 The formation of trusts. whatever may be their beneficial attributes. and they are many. has. by reason of con solidation and concentration. limited the clientele which existed while the constituent companies or firms were independent and competitive
 The formation of real estate. mort gage, and title-guarantee companies has rendered the branch of the profes- sion known generally as conveyancing of little importance. The existance of arbitration committees in the great ex- changes has diminished litigation greatly.
 A uniform bankruptcy law. contain- ing features which renders the issue of mesne process yalueless. and which gives no advantage to the diligent over the dilatory creditor. has greatly dI- unfinished the volume of debtor and creditor litigation.
 Tt is true that the calendars arc crowded. but with large preponder- ance of cases arising from negligence Tn the operation of public service som- pahles the elements of which are gen. eraiiy understood and require no high order of attainment in their conduct.
 Other reasons might be adduced, but these of themselves. it seems to me, are sufficient to Justify the belief that with the limitation of proper on portunity only those exceptionally qualified should enter upon the pro- fession of the law"
 The Hon. Charles aS JHamlin. A. NJ. LL-D.' of Boston, in letter to the au- thor. says:
 whether or not I would advise a young man to take up the practice of the legal profession. would depend somewhat upon the man himself If Is profession that Is exacting. vet if offers very great rewards to those will ing to devote themselves to it. In ad- dition to that, legal education eauips man for many positions not directly | connected with the law.
 "A legal education pre-supposes A well-trained mind and this may open wide avenue to other fields of useful | ness. l think that a legal education | could never be a handicap. but proably | would be of the greatest assistance in almost any business. To one who takes | It up as his profession. it certainly. as l have said. offers the highest prizes | for ability and capacity for hard work"

fewer than 80 species OF beetle. He
finds that in the same species and sex
the number Increases with the size of

the number OF facets. Occasionally.
however, the difference is marked. as

A FAR SIGHTED NAN.

Former Gov. William Pitt Kel-
lOgg, of Louisiana, who has been
interested in politics more or less
actively since the early sos, when
he was a candidate for the legisla-
ture of Illinois, is at the Shoreham.
The governor is an ardent Repub-
lican, but was last night impressed
with what he considered the fact
that Mr.. Hearst may be the next
governor of New York.
I used to think" said he, that
Hearst was a sort of charlatan who
worked a combination of the news
paper and political game, but
have since come to the conclusion
that he is one of the most farsight-
men of the day. a year ago met
a prominent member of the House
on the street and was told by him
that Mr.. Hearst would be showed
under. / replied that the then in
dependent nominee for the mayor
atty of New York would come very
near to being elected. Since then
MIR. Hearst has been leaving no
stone unturned to gain the gov
ernorship. In this campaign the
papers of New York other than his
own have been solidly arrayed
against him, but | want to tell YOU
that he is going to come very near
being elected, ifhe doesnot actually
land the prize. Yesterday the
highest court in the State granted
the people S0-cent gas as the result
of his campaign for it, and / think
the papers showed small policy in
not mentioning it. They made the
charge that one of his wagons ran
down woman in the street. and
that he hid behind his holding cor
poration in order not TO pay her
claim. Yetheshows he voluntarily
paid double the amount she asked.
And so he disposes of every charge
made against him. | hope Mr..
Hearst will not be elected, but the
chances are that he will be. y
