Charles F. Bandel. who is an osteopath
at 14S Hancock street. Brooklyn. several
weeks since. sent TO the board Of health
q death certificate that was refused by
the board. on the ground that the physi-
elan was not registered. Mr.. Bandel had

they had things pretty much as they
wanted them, and that they would be
recognized as physicians.
Justice Dickey took the papers and will
decide the case later. Should ne decide

said Knox was the most honest public
man he ever knew Senator Knox said
Il want TO say something to you about
what I told the young fellows I used to
take into my law office. I never took a
boy in with me except that I told him
that ! waEted him 10 feel at the end OF
three years that he would be able 20 set
up in business for himself and take all
my clients with him.
Il did it 10 encourage him and make
him take on his shoulders responsible
ties and make him realize that he must
take advantage Of every opportunity that
came bis way. no matter how small the
opportunity and make the most of II to
his az ancement and to his credit.
I venture the remark that the men
who are az the head Of the government
to-day are better than the men who pre-
ceded them, and the men who succeed
the men of to-day will be Of a better and
higher class The world is evoluung. and
il grows better all the time. The nations
OF the earth look more kindly toward
each other than they did years ago.
Look az the great war for humanity

DENY THEY ARE IN POLITICS
Vernon and Dancy to Attend Con.
ference as Churchmen.
Recorder of Deeds Says He VIII Not
Further Taft's Interests at
Church Meetings.

W T. Vernon. Register Of the Treasury,
and John c. Dancy, recorder of deeds
in the District, will attend the confer
ences Of the A. NJ. Z. Church at Phnadel-
phia and Norfolk this week.
Vernon will attend as a Methodist min
lister and member Of the A. NJ. f. Cen
eraI Conference. Daney is a member Of
the General Conference and editor of the
Quarterly Review.
It has been announced that both dele
gates were to attend the conferences to
further the interests of Secretary Taft in
his Presidential campaign. This is denied
by Vernon and Dancy.
Dancy last night made the following
statement:
Permit me TO correct a statement to
the effect that I. among others. had been
assigned by somebody TO go TO Norfolk.
Va, where the A. N. E. General Confer
ence is in session, and also toi Philadel-
phia. where the a NJ. Z. Zion Conference
convenes this week, to do work to advance
the political fortunes of a particular can
didate for the Presidency
so far as l am concerned the article
is a splendid piece of imagination, but
sadly lacking in the element of correct
ness. I am a member Of the general con-
ference of the African Methodist Epis-
copal Zion Church and have attended its
sessions every four years since 1890 This
session. therefore, will be my eighth. 1
bear and have borne official relations to
the body for over twenty years, so that it
is hardly fair to presume that l would
go there this year to look solely after pO-
litical matters. ! go as the members of
the Methodist Episcopal General Con-
ference go to Baltimore. to look after the
affairs of that church.
4 have never introduced the subject Of
politics in any General Conference I ever
attended. Indeed my chief aim has been
10 keep attention directed to matters more
nearly connected with church work and
church probity. And yet if the issue is
raised I never run from it, but try to
meet it nationally and patriotislly
when the joint board Of bishops of all
the colored Methodist churches met here
three months ago it become my duty. in
part, to welcome those dignitaries In a
brief address. A similar duty befeu me
when ny own bishops held their session
here ? few days prior. In neither in
stanc tid I mention politics, nor did anv
other Uf1Ce-holdeT. But politics were IN
troduced later. and the world knows now
who introduced them,
u win not go to Norfolk unless sent by
my general conference, which IS not prob
able Were I TO go l would not need to
dabble IN political discussion, because
there Is plenty Of room elsewhere for that.
But I will be at Philadelphia to assist IN
the work before that body, to take part
in the controversies that will arise In the
election of bishops and general officers
but not to turn so great religious BODY
into a political ward meeting
My belief is that fear is father to the
charge

WATCH HUGHES FUTURE.
Organization Republicans in New
York Fear His denomination.

New York, May 5.-The Woodruff men
and the Parsons men are acutely curious
as to Gov. Hughes future, especially if
the governor, failing to be nominated for
President. and continuing TO withstand
any movement to nominate him for the
Vice Presidency, should at the last mo-
ment change his mind about not desiring
a denomination for governor,
The governor has said in personal con-
versatiOns that he desired 10 return TO
the practice of his profession on Janu-
airy I. Yet in view of recent events, espe-
cially the governors stand on the Agnew-
Hart racing bill. most Of the Republicans
connected with the State organization are
rather concerned lest the governor should
seek denomination
If he appoints Mr.. Bruce 70 the bench
these politicians will be inclined to take
it as indicating that he is not averse TO a
denomination.
