There is considerable question as
to the legality of the act and with.
out doubt it will come before the
Supreme court for adjudication
There are some good features of
the change, also some vely bad
ones. SeeGs to us $4,000 wear
is not a very large salary for a
judge of the district court to re.
ceive but as the people have voted
for this change we suppose they
must desire it.

Not His Complaint.

A short while since number OF
amateur musicians In country town
met for the purpose Of organizing an
orchestra. They were successful in
procuring all the performers they de-
sired except an ophlcIelde player
One Of the number finally yolun-
teered to take up the instrument and
try to learn to play it, He had no
ophicleide; but, hearing that he could
probably borrow one from a young
man In the place who was thought to
own one, he. happening to meet him in
the street one day, accosted him with:
''How are you. Brown? heard you
had an ophiclelde."
Brown looked at him In utter amaze
ment. having probably never heard Of
such an Instrument before. and STAN
mered out:

why 1t has been much more popular in Austria than in Hungary. As an Austrian remarked: You will remem- Der that thirty years ago the occupa- ton of Bosnia and Herzegovina was forced on a more or less reluctant Austria by Hungarian minister Count Andrassy, Today the annexa- tion of the two provinces has been forced upon a more or less reluctant Hungary by an Austrian minister" Of more immediate importance than even its bearing upon the internal relations between the two halves of the mon- archy Is the bearing of this new Aus trtan policy on the relations between the monarchy and the Russian Empire.
 No sensible Russian probably imag- ines that tht ait accompli can be re- versed In Bosnia and Herzegovina. but there is strong determination that grave breach of existing treaties which affects the interests of a kim dred Slav race shall not be consum- mated without consulting with Rus sia and without the assent of the other signatory powers. The Servian visitors received nothing but counsels of moderation and patience In St. Pe- tersburg. and for any act of deliberate provocation Servia would have to bear the consequences within just and reas- enable limits. But there exists in Rus sia a suspicion that provocation may not come only from the Servian side and may act on aggression on the part Of Austria, or even any un- reasonably vindictive punishment in- fiicted by Austria on servian aggres- sion, might have frreparable conse- quences, which the Russian govern ment. however pacincally disposed would De poWerless to avert.

Cannot Be Rexerned.

Not a single power harbors the hope that the accomplished fact can be re- versed at the conference any more than in 1871 there was any idea of uphold ing the Black Sea clauses in their or iginal shape. But an impartial ex- animation" and "a perfectly free dis cussion" of the questions are required in order not only to safe guard an "es- sential principle of international law" but to enable Austria to show that the annexation will be carried out, as she declares, in the spirit of the obliga- tions assumed by her at Berlin for the better government of the two prov inces. This Is briefly the issue which will presumably give r:se to the most acute difference of opinion between Russia and the Western Powers on the one side supported probably by Italy, as far as her position in the triple alliance allows, and Austria Hungary and Germany on the other side A direct settlement between Vi- enna and Constantinople would not al- together remove that difficulty, for it would stilI require to be ratified by the other signatory powers. What lends unmistakable gravity to this inn pending conflict of views Is the grow Ing antagonism between Austrian and Russian feeling which underlieH 1t, and the profound apprehension created by the mysterious policy of Germany.

GEORGE wAsHINGToN's WIFE.
A Woman of High Character and sound
 intelligence.


 Gaillard Hunt, in The Century.
 I am afraid the modern woman of ad- vanced ideas cannot approve of Martha Washington. She went North to join place for the winter, and when her husband told her to come, she went South again when the campaign opened non shots In the distance. but she had no ambition to share her husbands s dangers, If he did not wish 1t. She ish. she hefd, in fact. the same views as her husband, and held them because he held them. She thought he was the greatest man in the worlds, indeed, of a Virginian planter was the best life a woman could lead. She lost no sleep in studying the. problems which were vexing philosophers and states night. thinking of the last invoice of clothes arrived from England or what she would have for dinner on the fol-
 Her character was high, her intelli- Eence sound, and her temper masterful. Nobody at Mount Vernon disputed her sway, nobody laughed at her, and everybody held her judgment in re- witty remark and hardly ever read book except her Bible and a, few books of religious devotion. She knew all net or harpsichord, and could work in worsteds in ali sorts of stitches, but of book education she had very little. How could she have much when she was counted a woman at the age of IS and had charge of the household and husband at IT? She was fully as well educated as other ladies of her day, and although in writing she sent her love to ''all enquireing friends" and hoped 'billy's recovery would be lasting wone,9 she was none the less a lady and an ornament to society.
