rrdoa siIas A Robinson at the su.

Judge Silas A. Robinson at the su- perior court in Rockville. He im- returned to the University of Maine, where he took post-gradu- ate course. and graduated with the class of 1908 with the degree of l.. l.. M. He was a delegate to the state convention last year at New Haven. He was named by Speaker Banks on the committee to canvass the votes. and has been honored with the chair manship of the labor oommittee-an important position. He is also clerk of the Holland county organization.
 While at college he applied himself with energy to his studies. and his record is one of not having failed in 8 single examination during the entire course. In his senior year he was class president. He early espoused republican politics, and while in Ool- lege was president of the republican club of that institution.

Living Liahts of tho Sea

One of the marine curioslt1es hshed from the bottom of the Indian ocean by dredging vessel chartered by the Calcutta Society of Natural History was a mammoth sea crab, which con- tinually emitted a bright white light, similar to that seen in the spasmodic flashes of phosphorescent luminosity kindled by the common flrefies. The oddity was captured in daytime and placed in a large tank, nothing pecul- far except its immense size being no ticeable in the broad glare of the tropical sun. At night, however, when all was in pitchy darkness, the crab surprised the naturalists by lighting up the tank so that all the other sea creatures, great and small, occupying the same tank could be plainly seen. When the luminous crustacean was prodded with pole he emitted flashes of light which enabled the expert mentors to read small print even though otherwise they were in total darkness.-London Chronicle.

Rha Daxflfish In Action.

A naturalist who observed devil fishes in action says that he thought no more diabolical creature could be imagined. They resembled enormous bats and in following one another around in a circle raised the outer tip of one of the long winglike fins high out of the water in graceful curve,
 the other being deeply submerged. They might be seen now gliding down with a flying motion of the wings sweeping, gyrating upward with twisting vertical motion marvellous in it's perfect grace; now they flashed white, again black, so that one would say they were rolling over and over, turning somersaults. While swimming along the two great arms or feelers of the devtlnsh are whirled about in constant motion, Nike the tentacleS of a Uquid. When these tentacles come in contact with anything they close upon 1t. It is generally believed that this clasping, although at times doing considerable harm to fishermen and their boats, is largely automatic and that, upon the whole, the deVffsh Is tamid rather than a fighter.

Tho Rust of Custom.

The bitterness toward innovation is just the same in an army as out of it, but perhaps with more reason. A new thing cannot possibly be accepted un- til it has proved itself better than that which it displaces. The first cannons were possibly rejected, and the Chris tian inventor took them to the Turk, who used them at the siege of Con- stantinopIe. The first firearms were bitterly opposed because they destroy ed the soldierly bearing of the troops. The British navy strenuously objected to the first large guns because one charge would cost as much as one of Nelson's broadsidea. Ericsson's Mon itor met with more opposition in Washington than 1t did in Hampton Roads. At the outbreak of the civil war 1t is said that congress ordered the adoption of the new weapon, over the objection of the chief of ordnance, who kept a specimen of the old one in his office to show visitors how good it was.-Army and Navy Life.
The Press., 1909-02-17
He Was Guilty.

The great Irish agitator, Daniel O'Connell, was at one time defending a man accused of murder at Clonmel. The circumstantial evidence was so strong against the prisoner that the jury had already determined upon their verdict of guilty, when the man supposed to have been murdered was brought into court, alive and unhurt. The jury were desired to return their verdict at once, and they did so, but it was one of guilty.
 "Whatv exclaimed the astonished judge. What does this mean2 If the man has not been murdered how can the prisoner be guilty2"
 Please, your honor," said the fore man, "he's guilty. He stole my bay mare three years ago."-Omaha World Herald
