HUGHES MAY TAKE
PLACE OF BREWER

Washington, April 11.-(Special Gov.
Charles e. Hughes of New York is to
be given the refusal of the bench of the
vacant by the death of Justice Brewer,
according to rumor current at the
W hite House today.
President Taft has doubts whether
Governor Hughes will accept, because the
latter has made no secret of the fact that
he was retiring from the governorship
in order to earn q competency for his
family. The post of justice of the
supreme court would pay him only $1,000
more per year than he is receiving now.
There is a feeling also that political
conditions in New York may operate
against the acceptance of the post by
Governor Hughes. Senator Root and
other leaders have been making point
of the fact that the oratorical services of
Governor Hughes would be necessary in
the next gubernatorial election to assist
the republican nominee.
The appointment of a successor to
Justice Brewer will be made in about two
weeks 1t has come to be believed that
he will be a New York man. In addition
to Governor Hughes. the president has
under consideration the name of Judge
Andrews
Attorney General Wickers1am has also
been considered, but the president is
loathe to lose the services of this cabinet
advisor. Governor Hughes therefore
stands out prominently in the list and
the best information today is that the
tender will be made him.

we are trying to give enlightened citizen

mountains. One of the best examples of
our work, and a. visit to it has been one
of the main objects of my southern strip
is the school at Brewton, Ala Here the
Southern Educational Industrial Associa-
ton has built a school costing IS, 600,
which is filed with girls from the noun
tain districts who would probably never
have had a chance to embrace an educa-
ton or otherwise know what the word ed

yer when we stop to consider that these
same girls are the future mothers and
triots, 1t fairly makes one shudder to
think what their lives might have been
without some sort of education and in
dustrial training to fit them for their
future work"
How did you happen to take up the
work?" I asked Mrs. Gieow, knowing
how full her life had been of other things
and other people.

New York, April 11.-Clouds of vol

waters Captain Dickinson, of the
steamship Avon, in today from the West
indies, believes that the clouds came
from the eruption of Mount Etna. The

for two days, when an earthquake de-

An event of more than passing interest

The audience promises to be repre-

the opportunity to meet them, but the

Miss Listemann is the daughter of Ber-

would be more remarkable If she were
not a musician than that she is. She pos

attractive of feature, bearing marked
resemblance to the lovely Nine. Cavalieri.
She has a beautiful voice with wealth
of tone, large, broad style, and general
