JUSTICE FULLER DEAD
Chief of United States Supreme
Court Dies Suddenly.

Chief Justice Melville W. Fuller Of
the United States supreme court died
from heart failure at his summer home
at Sorrento, Me.
The death of the chief magistrate
was unexpected, as he had been in
fairly good health lately, and there had
been no premonitcry symptoms of any
kind of trouble. His daughter, Mrs.
Nathaniel Francis, and Rev. James e.
Freeman, who was guest of Justice
Fuller's, at his Sorrento cottage, Main
Stay" were present when death came.
The death of Justice Fuller is preg-
nant with several possibilities, the
most prominent of which is the success
sion of Gov. Hughes Of New York to
the important position of chief justice.
1t is we'll known and recognized fact
that Gov. Hughes by his extended and
diversified experience is one of the
most able men on the supreme bench
and the inference naturally follows
that the New York governor will be
selected to fill this most important
post.

gentlemen said he, ''there is nothing
like travel to expand the mind. Now.
/ don't suppose, for instance. that
many Of you have ever seen beet root
putting on waistcoat" His fellow
passengers stared in surprise. NO;
we certainly have mott" "Or lettuce
donning a pair Of trousers?' Nor
"Or spring onion fixing on its tie and
collar" No. not even thatw "Weil,
gentlemen" said the traveller as the
train drew up at the terminus and ne
prepared to alight, "you may believe
me or not, as you like. but several
times in my travels l have seen not
only a beet root or lettuce or an
onion but a whole salad dressing"-

Time at the North Pole.

At the north pole time is nothing.
and if one were residing at the north
pole it would be unnecessary to wind
ones watch. You are always at IL
O'clock and cant walk out of the ho-
tel without walking south. All times
of day meet at the pole as the meeting
place of all the meridians. A man sit
ting with the invisible mathematical
point right under him would be in all
twenty-four hours at once. or twen-
ty-four hour watch placed on the pole
could be made to point to the correct
time in every part of the world. There
used to be something Of an approx
nation to this in the extreme north OF
Norway, where the degrees OF longl-
tude squeeze in. until recent days. Cap
tains of Norwegian coasting schooners
will tell you how incorvenient 1t was
to change between the time OF Hol-
land at Bergen and that of Crete at
the North cape while correct local
time was maintained. General Norwe-
gian time became Indispensable.

Paupers' Paradise.

The authorities of Samoa. the little
island upon which Robert Louis Ste
venson lived and died, provide board
and lodging absolutely free to stran-
gers who are unable or unwilling to
pay for their keep. Every village on
the island has a guest house, called a
"faletale." and here the tourist is in
vited to come and be fed, lodged and
entertained without any payment
whatever.
The officials of the town Of Klingen-
berg-on-the- Main. in Bavaria, are ex-
ceptionally generous, for they not only
provide free beds and free board to
poor people, but give away big pud-
dings every year end to all who ask
for them. Klingenberg owns several
pottery clay pits that bring in so much
money to the town Golfers that they
pay all the town expenses and leave
a good round sum over. which is dis
tributed to charity. Klingenberg Is
one of the few places where taxes are
unknown.

RAILROADS WIN VICTORY
commerse Commission Will Not Sus-
pend Classification No. SO.

Announcement was made in Wash
ington by the interstate commerce
commission that 1t would not suspend
official classification No. SO, involving
over 5000 items, which was filed to be-
effective July 1.
This declination to act Is regarded
as victory for the railroads.
Permission has been granted by the
commission to the railroads operating
out of Buffalo to advance their rates
on flour and other wheat products
cent hundred pounds to eastern des-
tinations.
For nearly a month the commission
has been overwhelmed with protests
against the proposed new classified
ton of freight. Many shippers seemed
to entertain the idea that the rear
rangement Of freight classification
would result in largely increased rates
The subject vas considered careful
ly by the Commission, thorough and
comprehensive check being prepared
on the entire classification.
In the 5000 items and ratings in
volved there are only fifty-eight
changes, of which twenty-eight are re-
auctions and thirty advances, the lat
ter including twelve increases in car
load weights.
Official classification territory in
cludes all that part of the United
States north of the Potomac and Ohio
rivers and east of the Mississippi river.

Entertaining and Hospitality.

have no sympathy with the tired
murmur OF the straining women who
speak OF entertaining as "a duty to
society" We all have duties to socie-
ty. but entertaining is not one OF them.
There Is no more obligation for wo-
man to entertain than there is for a
man to swap horses with neighbor.
The conditions as they now exist are
identical. The neighbor may desire TO
swap his horse. but no man feels
bound on that account to exchange his
own for it against his wish. Since
have recognized the market value of
my own horse and how much am al
ways expected to give Ito boot |
never swap.
The real and usually neglected duty
to society is hospitality. and that has
an important distinction from enter
tanning. 1t is hospitality only when
the entertainment is without hope OF
reward. The moment the host hopes
to receive in exchange even IA good
opinion. little affection or admira-
ton it ceases to be hospitality and be-
comes entertaining. The foundation
of hospitality must be perfect unself
ishneSs.
The question left us to solve in indi-
vidual cases is, Which will give the
most satisfaction as society is now or
