TO SUPREME COURT
Governor Hughes Accepts Pres.
ident Taft's Appointment.

Will Not Be a Factor In Next Falls
Campaign In New York State-Will
Be Succeeded by Lieutenant Cover
nor White - Governor Hughes Had
Declared That He Could Not A.
ford to Accept a Third Nomination
as Governor.
Albany, April 26.-Governor Charles
p. Hughes decided to accept Presi-
dent Tafts appointment to a United
Etates supreme court justiceship in
preference to returning to the prac-
lice of law in New York city on Jan.
I next.
Governor Hughes is on record not
only in favor of President Taft sue
ceeding himself, but against the gov
ernor himself accepting a third nomin-
alton for governor, upon the ground
that his personal fortune will not
stand any further drain of public Of
flee such as the governorship
The salary of governor is $4,000
and that of United States supreme
court justice S12.500 The latter sal
airy is to be increased shortly to ST.
zoo. Governor Hughes feels that in
accepting this life appointment from
President Taft he will be able to
live within his income and save some
money, as the position will not entail
any material social obligations or ex
penditures such as the goyernorship
or the presidency.
AS Governor Hughes will ascend
the supreme court bench at Wash
ington at the commencement OF the
first week in October, he will not be
a factor in next falls campaign in
this state. He will be succeeded as
governor by Lieutenant Governor
White.
The news that Governor Hughes had
accepted President Taft's appointment
came with some surprise to the gov
ernor's friends. They have felt all
along that he would be compelled to
run again for governor.
To the rank and file Of the Repub-
lican organization of this state the
decision of Governor Hughes to go
upon the supreme bench was welcome
news. The general opinion among
the party leaders was that the gov
ernor had not only suited himself but
pleased a large number of his friends
and practically all of his enemies by
getting completely out of the political
situation in this state.
To his friends Governor Hughe!
| made il plain that he was not anxious
to make money He wanted to ge
out of the excitement of public life.
The governor declined to discuss
with the newspaper representatives
here his acceptance of President
Taft's offer but made 1t plain just
how he felt about 1t. The governor
impressed those who talked with
him as having had great burden lift
ed from his shoulders.
The governor is profoundly i'm
pressed with the tremendous response
bility of the position he has agreed
to assume and considers that it is one
Of the most useful in the world. To
those who appreciate the governors
high ideals and his ambition to press
forward for the public good his de-
cisinn Is no great snrnrise.

GREATEST HUM0RIST
Sympathetic Comment by European
Press on Work Of Mark Twain.

ONnpdITcIlC SOIlIUCHh W IA' SFSN'
Press on Work Of Mark Twain.
The German press records the death
OF Mark Twain with regret. The papers
say Mr.. Clemens was no less popular
in Germany than in America. The
Tageblatt explains that the success
of his sharp but never offensive hui
nor was the result of his living in an
atmosphere of freedom where he did
not have to fear cliques or the police.
His work, the paper says, was free OF
Gallic indecency or German ribaldry.
The Tageblatt continues: THE
German humorists with whom he can
best be compared are Wilhelm and
Busch. The thought of the legacy OF
harmless laughter left by Twain
makes us forget sorrow at his death"
The Boersen Courier compares Mr..
Clemens to the German humorist
Saphir, who lived three generations
ago. Although the necrologies are
quite sympathetic, the Germans as a
reople have never quite forgiven
Mark Twain for his ill-treatment OF
the German language"
The l. ondon papers devote con-
siderable space to obituaries and edi-
torials on Mark Twain, who is re-
ferred to as The worlds greatest hu'
morist." Columns are devoted to anec-
dotes and memoirs of the dead writer,
author and humorist. The predomi-
nant note of all the articles is one of
affectionate regret, which may be
summed up in the words Of the Pail
Mall Gazette, which says: America
in particular and the English speak
ing world generally is mourning the
death of Mari; Twain, the most loved
author of the present day"

COULD NOT ACCEPT VERDICT
Judge Discharged Jury Who Rendered
Conditional Acquittal.

After being locked up for forty
six hours the jury in Pittsburg hay
ing the case of Councilman A. V.
Simon, accused of accepting bribes,
etc, sent word to the court that it
had reached verdict. Judge r. S.
Frazer sent for the jury but lost his
temper when that body announced
that the verdict was one of acquittal,
providing Simon would pay all costs
of the case and at once resign from
Pittsburg councils"
The court told the jury that he
could not accept any such verdict and
discharged the jury. He ordered ST.
mon placed on trial again this week
before another Jury,

This much is known and no more.
The most diligent search on the

King was out at the time. and her
mother answered the telephone. There
was woman al the o-her end who
talked very rapidly.
All that Mrs. King was able to gath

the doorstep OF a hotel. and thai the
woman who was teIephoning was will

she would call up the Critenton home
and acquaint the authorities there
