HEARST, the Democratic nominee for Gov
ernor of the great State of New York, has an
exceedingly high 81 opinion of Judge Alton
B. Parker, who was the Democratic nominee
for the Presidency in 1904. In speech de-
livered in Brooklyn on Monday night last Mr..
Hearst said: ALTON B. Parker is a typical
corporation lawyer. He can be feed to hold
any opinion on any subject and argue any
side of any case. Alton B. Parker is the at
torney who appeared in the election case on
the side of the election criminals in the very
court he had formerly graced and there argued
against the very opinion he himself had for
merly rendered. and there succeeded in secur-
ing reversal of his own verdict. It possible
that the arguments Of Judge Parker were not
as effective as the arguments of the employers
of Judge Parker, but nevertheless it cannot be
denied that Parker argued to secure the rever-
sal of Parker and to deny the people their POI
litical rights. And he did this because the
corporation who employed him as their cor
poration attorney wanted him to do it, and
paid him to do it. / wish publicly to thank
Judge Parker for his opposition to me-"

Ones hair, if never cut, would furnish a rec
ord of his health during life. This is the inter-
esting discovery of Matsura,a Japanese physiolo-
gist, who shows that the hair-like the finger
nails-grows smaller in disease. and that the
duration of the malady may be estimated from
the length of the thinner section OF the hairs.
The variations are most striking in the coarse
haired races of people.
A striking instance of the practical usefulness
of a knowledge of entomology was rec ntly
cited by an official of the Department of Agri
culture. Red clover was sent to CT rtain West
State, where it previously did not exist, but,
to the great disappointment of the farmers. it
did not thrive. Then the entomologists told the
farmers what the matter was they had neglect
ed to import bumble-bees with the clover. The
bumble-bee, with its long proboscis, was the
only insect that could reach the honey in the
red clover heads, and. therefore, the only one
that would fertilize the flowers.

will secure something like S15,O09. The con-
testants of the will We're sis .ers and brothers
of the testator, by whom he had been de-
serted some time previous to his death on
account of his Incorporate habits and the
presence of the young woman in the cot
tage 1t was alleged that Captain Lurty
was mentally incompetent of making a will,
and that Miss Smith eXerted undue infiu-
ence in her favor.
