Mrs. FANNIE GRIscoM PARSONS is to be the

colonies in New York city, just created for her
by the Board of Estimate and Apportionment.
For the last two years Mrs. Parsons has con-
Quoted nature study at Dewitt Clinton Park
gardens for the public school pupils of Brook
lyn. Many Of these pupils had never before
seen such thing as vegetable garden. Mrs.
Parsons will receive salary of 81, 500. She
has worked hitherto without compensation.
She at first got leave to use vacant lots, which
the children cultivated under her direction.
The farm colonies have raised all sorts Of vege-
tables, besides keeping the children out Of mis-
chief These farm colonies in New York are
good schools and commendable charities and
should be initiated elsewhere. The noblest
and truest charity is the kind that teaches the
youth to work and be selfsustaining and self
respecting.
The COMMITTEE appointed by the Hartford
Mutual Fire Insurance Company to formulate
certain recommendations 10 the annual meet
ing of the company presented, among others,
the following: I'VE believe the office of State
Fire Marshal to be absolutely useless and un-
necessary and while we are alive to the fact
that the appointment is one over which you
have no control, yet we cannot let the appor-
tunity escape of recording our protest against
the continuance of such a useless office. In
expressing our views in this way we hope it
will be the means of urging you and other
companies to take some immediate action
looking to an early abolition of the Office, and
we would suggest that resolution to that end
be passed by your meeting and furnished to
the General Assembly," This about expresses
the feeling generally with regard to this Office
It seems to have thus far proven utterly use
less and needless expense upon the people
of the State.

In THE Maryland Senate on Wednesday Mr..
German, of Howard county, introduced bill

son who has been seated on the bench for a
continuous period of ten years and who has

ing for this law was introduced in the Senate
