there.
And throughout the years Mrs.
Dunham has retained her admira-

life in the open. She has taken care
OF her garden every year and it is
model which others who have not
reached the quarter post in years
might well emulate. And with her
love OF the outdoor life, Mrs. Dun

the wholesome and serene views Of
life which the years have only served
to fincrease and which are the high

HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS
DOLLARS TAKEN BY GANG

Attorney Joseph c. Ewing repre-
sents Bedford.
The Maybray expose was made
about eight months ago and resulted
in the arrest of Maybray and his gang
at Little Rock, Ark. This gang OF
alleged swindlers operated as an in
corporated company, had their let
terheads, occupied elegant offices
and operated through sub-agents.
Their games were three. alleged
fake wrestling matches, horse races
and foot races 1T is estimated that
over million dollars was drop

the arrest of several suspects, and
finally of Ernest Powers, formerly "A

the foot racer had burst a blood yes
sci and had died, thus losing the
race, and the Baltimore man felt so
sorry for him that he gave him 500

II was largely through the WORK
oil this wealthy man that the game
of the Maybray gang which extended
through a long period OF years was
disclosed.

News From the Tripod

in the sense in which the ordinary
citizen understands that word.
1t is astonishing, however, that peo-
pie take so calmly the bald statement
that some of the men who sit on the
judicial bench have had to pay lump
sums to Tammany bosses to get their
nominations.
The New York Journal declares
that this cash price is not all that has
been paid or the worst price:
IF the judges paid cash and cash
says the Journal, that would be bad
enough.
But, unfortunately, judges pay not
cash alone. They trade judicial de
cisions for their appointments, and
that is where the real harm is done.
ut is said that as much as hun
dred thousand dollars has been paid
for a judgeship That's pretty big
price even for a place that pays ST.
500 a year for fourteen years. 1t is
not the biggest price.
THE public really suffers when a
man who wants to be a judge convinc
es some shameless criminal boss who
has the power to nominate him that
he will be the friend of that boss and
the friend of the bosss friends.
"The public really suffers when a
man who really wants to be judge
convinces some shameless criminal
boss who has the power to nominate
him that he will be the friend of that
boss and the friend of the boss's
friends.
Men are put on the bench for a
lump sum. That is bad.
Men are also put on the bench be-
cause they agree, specifically or tacit'
ly, that their decisions will be along
the interests of the corporations that
control the boss. That is shameful,
truly harmful, dangerous to the stabili-
ty of society.
Corners has made his accusation
openly. And there ought to be some
where in the community, among the
people themselves, in the governor,
in some district attorney, or some
where, energy, honesty enough to get
at the facts and to get at the guilty"

THE LONG HAT PIN.

A chicago alderman has introduced
an ordinance limiting the length of
hat pins to seven inches.
Seven inches is a pretty good sized
pin-long enough to run clear through
two or three of the aldermen of the
city of Jackson and to be braided on
the far end.
But there is not an alderman of Jack
son who would seriously propose any
such ordinance, who has just had the
distinguished pleasure of seeing one
of his ordinances adopted.
The hat pin has come to be looked
upon as one of the most dangerous
and effective weapons in use in this
country. 1t is very convincing, as
many a ruffian has discovered to his
