LUR1ON Is SLATED
FOR SUPREME BENCH.
TENNESSEE MAN pRosAsLvw'LL
BE NAMED AS SUCCESSOR TO
JUSTICE PEckAAm.
as CLOSE FRIEND OF TAFT
AND OF LUKE E. WRIGHT
'Lurton is Being Opposed Because He is
Said to Have Leaninss Toward Cor
porate Interests = Organized Labor
Especially DisIikes Him Roosevelt
Once Refused to Appoint Him.
Special to Times-Republican.

Washington, Oct. 29.-A letter has
been received in Washington from
Nashville, Tenn, politician who is a
close friend of Justice Lurton and of
former Secretary Luke e. Wright, de-
claring that it may be set down as
settled that Justice Lurton will be APP
pointed to the supreme bench. The in
formation is regarded as peculiarly re-
liable, so far as it has to do with the
impression which Judge Lurton and
Secretary Wright entertain.
Judge Lurton is closer to President
Taft than anybody else now in public
Efe. The story goes that Mr.. Taft wanted
President Roosevelt to name Judge
Lurton to the supreme bench instead
of Justice Moody; but Mr.. Roosevelt
would not do 1t. 1t was Judge Lurton
who first introduced Secretary Taft
and General Wright; and in the present
juncture, according to the advices from
Nashville. GENERALLY Wright is looking
after the interests of Judge Lurton in
the judicial matter.
The information, therefore, may be
said to come directly from both Judge
Lurton and General Wright, that they
are confident of the appointment OF
Judge Lurton They think moreover
that the appointment will be made i'm
from his trip, in order to prevent the
aR ja%~~ IL.
consideration.
President Gets Much Advice.
The president is in fact getting all
the advice he needs or wants, just at
this time, being subject to the impor-
tunities OF the big congressional and
gubernatorial party that is accompany
ing him down the Mississippi There
has been suggestion that an appoint
ment to the supreme bench at this
time is Of such Importance, in view of
the close division of the court in recent
decisions, that there is certain to be a
careful consideration of any nomina-
tion before confirmation is secured.
Judge Lurton will have an enthusiastic
support among the lawyers of his own
circuit: but some of 1t comes from
lawyers who declare frankly that they
will be pleased to see him off the cir
cult bench of the Sixth district. They
charge that Judge Lurton is of the type
of mind that leans strongly toward the
corporate view of questions.
Organized labor is especially bitter
toward Judge Lurton because of his de-
cision under the employers liability
act. He is set down as distinctly op-
posed to all this class of legislation; !;
and his nomination by President Taft
will be the signal for determined
criticism. It is regarded as hopeless to
attempt to secure ultimate rejection of
any nomination President Taft may
make; but it is known that some de-
termined work is now in progress, aim
ing to make up a Showing of the judi
cial record of Judge Lurton, with q
view of dissuading the president from
appointing him.

ALLIGATORS POLICE
A Melon Patch-A Negro Caught and
Held.

1t is related from Cape Charles, Va,
that Edward Thompson's watermelon
plantation near Horntown, few miles
from Cape Charles, is policed by ALI
gators. One of these alligators few
nights ago caught John Ellison, negro
youth aged IL years, in the act of lifting
a juicy "redheart" from the vine. The
alligator seized the boy by the leg and
held him fast. The young negro's cries
brought Thompson running from the
house. He took the thief into custody
and delivered him over to the county
authorities. This remarkable case is the
only one of its kind on record. Last
spring Thompson had a number OF al
ligators shipped TO his farm from Flor
ida. Until that night no negro had ven
tured into the Thompson patches this
year.

WOMEN'S HATPINS
Paris Police to Regulate Length-Baby
Accidentally Killed.

The Times-Democrat Paris special
says: Official war has begun against the
murderous hat pints worn by women.
With the advent of the big hat it has
become fashionable for a woman to go
about the streets which her head brist-
ling on all sides with hat pin weapons
of many designs. Sometimes the pins
are nearly foot and half long,, and
are like thin bladed swords. Numerous
accidents have resulted. In the crowds
about the railway stations and in the
shops hundreds of persons have been
wounded by hat pins, some seriously.
A few days ago civil engineer, rid
ing in an omnibus, lost one eye as the
result of womarl's sudden toss of her
head.
Last week sales girl in department
store was dangerously wounded during
a bargain rush.
A babe in arms, killed accidentally
with one of these ornaments, is the
latest victim.
The Paris press has begun to make
war on the long hat pin, with the result
that the police have taken up the mat
ter and are considering measure to
reguate the length. Since June / the
police have recorded more than fifty ac-
cidents due to the pins.
