ASP|RANTS ARE ACTIVE
RENEWAL OF INTEREST IN THE
POLICE COURT JUDGESHIP.
Defamation of George P. Hoover
Continues the Campaign for
the Appointment.

The declination Of George p. Hoover to
accept the appointment of judge of the
Police Court. vice Ivory G. Kfmball
whose term expired some time ago as
announced yesterday afternoon, caused
quite a flutter In legal circles and at the
Police Court. Friends of Mr.. Hoover last
night congratulated him upon his deci-
sion. They declared he did the right
thing in not accepting = position which
does not present any hope Of future ad
vancement and which would have re-
quired him to give up his large and lu-
crative law practice.
When the news OF his refusal to ac-
cept the place had been noised about the
supporters Of the other candidates be-
came again active in behalf OF their ia
vorites

held a conference yesterday afternoon and
again last night and considered plans for
having his claims fairly and fully pre-
ser1ted at both the White House and the
Department Of Justice. A lawyer who
has advocated Mr.. Middleton's claims
ever since the Attorney General named
him for the position declared he had not
been given square deal"
The advocates Of Carter B. Keene ex-
pressed the hope that he would be ten
dered the judgeship. They said he was
qualified for the place in every direction
and would make a model police Judge.
A canvass was Also made by the friends
Of Jesse W. Tull. and last night they
expressed the hope that his name would
go to the Senate tomorrow. Much activ-
ity was also displayed in behalf OF James
L. Pugh, Judge Aukam, NJ. F. Mangan

FROM WOMAN'S
POINT OF VIEW

The habit Of borrowing IS something 10
be frowned upon chiefly because borrow
ers rarely have good memories. In.
larger cities one escapes the borrowing
neighbor because there is little or no ac-
quaintanceship between families which
are no farther apart than the thickness
Of a wall or floor and ceiling but in
small communities there is a temptation
10 remedy the shortcomings Of ones
household or wardrobe by the loan Of
articles belonging to neighbors and rela-
tives. Borrowers have few scruples con-
corning the value OF anything they may
desire.
There is no doubt that there are times
when the temporary use of articles saves
trouble and discomfort 1 know neigh
borhoods where card parties are frequent
and everybody borrows extra tables be-
cause it is understood that nobody cares
to own more than one or two at the most.
But invariably articles are promptly re-
turned and the borrowers stand ready to
take their turn at lending. That IS sim
ply an arrangement where everybody
shares alike, and not bit like borrowing
eggs and butter and sugar, postage stamps
and small sums Of money, and forgetting
TO repay them.
Fine-minded women are rarely content
to rest under an obligation of any descrip-
ton. They accept favors graciously even
ask for them, but in some way or other

preferred manner. but that IS not always

simple little scheme which is having some
