Wisconsin Democrats not to follow nor

timely. Conservation is simply sound

A Hard Iuck Story.

The vagaries OF the postal servict
are sometimes beyond the understands
ing of the layman. Last March. ,
man in New York received letter
from a friend in England written when
on the point of sailing for Philadel-
phia, urgently requesting him to re-
turn loan of $40, says the New York
Evening Post. The man who wrote
the letter needed funds, and would
the debtor kindly send the money TO
him, care of the steamship line at
Philadelphia. The man in New York
saw that his friend would reach Phil
adelphia within a day or two, SO he
promptly clapped a ten-dollar bill in
an envelope, addressed and mailed IT..
A week later he was appraised BY
mail that the money had not arrived
Both men made a diligent search for
the missing letter. But it could not
be found. So the debtor gave his
friend a check and forgot about his
ten dollars setting down its loss te
the dishonesty of some Intermediary.
who had handled the envelope.
Imagine his surprise, when, the
other day, he received his letter from
the dead letter ONCE in Washington.
1t was covered with postmarks and
much battered, for it had travelled
many thousands of miles, back to
England, around the United Kingdom
and to America again; but the money
Wag safe inside
Chuckling, he met his friend few
minutes later, and showed him the SO
bill.
''How's that for luck2" he queried
Great" replied the friend. Say
old man, you couldn't lend me that for
day or two, could you? It's like
picking money up in the street, for
you, and 1 could make use OF it, just
now"
Sadly. the bill was handed over.
What's the use OF such wonderful oe-
curTenceE? Tuminated the lucky
man.

THE FIGHT On
JUDGE HUEDLEY
IS RENEWED
Lawyers Go to President and
Also Ask Members of Sen
ate Committee to Defeat
Nomination.

Washington, Jan. 6.-The tight
against the confirmation Of Oscar R.
HundIey to be Judge of the Northern
district of Alabama has been renew
ed with yigor and general earnest
ness beyond any effort the opposition
has heretofore shown. a committee
of lawyers from the noTtnern district
arrived this morning, and at once pre-
scented the case TO the president. The
president in no way indicated his pur-
pose. The committee then went TO
the capitol and presented the case to
members of the senate judiciary COM
mittee whom they were able to see
Their efforts are in pursuance OF
the resolution by the meeting of the
Birmingham bar on December 19, that
the confirmation of Hundley's nomina-
ton was undesirable, requesting the
president to Withdraw his name, and
asking the senators from Alabama to
use their best efforts to defeat the con-
firmation in case the nomination was
not withdrawn
Among the members of the bar
here on this mission are John p. Till
man, Frank S. White, Walker Percy,
y. A Lapsley, w. C. Tur1stall, Jr.,
and Joseph H Nathan
Serious Charge Made.
Indorsing and joining in this action
protesting against the confirmation
are pape-s sent to the president and
the senators from Alabama from Biz
n,ingnam, Gadsden, Admission, Shelf
field, Tuscumbia, Jasper and Hunts
Vile.
,s.The committees memorial adopts
the conclusion in a subcommittee re
port to the senate judiciary commit
tee made by the late Senator PettUs
in which he declared that Hundley
was far short. in qualifications and
integrity, honor and capacity to make
him worthy of a place on the bencn
The committee, in giving unqualified
appreciation of this statement, says:
"In the recent history of Alabama
no men in public life seems to us
to have been more deserving of admiE
alton than Gen Edmund Winston
Pettus, a splendid soldier, a superb
lawyer. a man Of unfailing wisdom, OF
lofty patriotism and >of glorious char
acter. He was never actuated by an
unworthy motive or q mean impulse
What lends unusually grave signifi
canoe to the renewed opposition is
contained in the following statement
| by the committee;
Many of the lawyers today oppos
| ing his confirmation cordially acquies
eed in his appointment, and sincerely
hoped it would prove wise. 1t is dis
agreeable for a lawyer practicing be
| fore Judge Hundley, after twenty
months of trial, to come out frankly
and say that in his opinion Judge
HundIey has failed to make good and
that ne should no longer be retained
! on the bench"

Docs Superior to Men.

Dogs are property. Men are merely
human beings and as compared with
the rights of property in dogs the
rights of human beings go for the
most part by the board. The owners
of dog property may be and usually
are outnumbered four or forty TO one
in any well-settled community, but the
minoritys dog property may make
night hideous for the majority and APP
parently the majority is helpless,
without redress. Such are the safe
guards which the law throws around
property in dogs that it is more diff
cult to prove that the dogs of any
given owner of dog property are pesti-
lential disturbers of the peace than it
is to prove a human being guilty of
murder. Those who have tried this
have found it to be so.
