RAPS JUDICIARY
SYSTEM OF STATE
Top-Heavy and Cumbersome
Says Jersey City Lawyer
at Progressive Meeting.

Declaring that the State judiciary
system as at present constituted is
top-heavy and cumbersome, Charles
A. Hartshorne, a Jersey City lawyer.
urged reforms in the system at a
meeting of the North End Progress
sive Club, in the Ridge Street School
auditorium, last night.
The meeting was held TO discuss the
proposed constitutional convention,
and, besides Mr.. Hartshorne, the
speakers were C. P. Connolly, OF New
York, magazine writer; Charles
O'Connor Hennessy, assemblyman
from Bergen county; Mrs. Anna Ross
Weeks, of New York, an exponent of
woman suffrage, and Wilson Vance,
secretary to Mayor Jacob Haussling.
In summing up his argument. Mr..
Hartshorne said:
"Our system, of course, is top
heavy. 1t is absurd to have sixteen
judges in the court of last resort Nc
court of last resort among English
speaking people has SO many. The
system is not flexible. Some courts
are overloaded with work, with their
work in arrears, to the great delay of
justice, while others do not have
enough to keep them busy

Mother Is a Jap and They AL.
ways Lived in Far
East.

SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. THE
four pretty daughters of Edward J..
King, lumber king of the Far East
and United States consular agent at
Hakodate, Japan, have arrived here.
They are Alice. Margaret. Dorothy
and Annie, and their ages range from
IL to 16.
Their mother is a Japanese woman,
one of the daintiest daughters of the
island kingdom. The girls speak
Japanese, French, Spanish and Eng
fish. They write English perfectly,
but in speaking their fathers tongue
they prefer the pidgin variety, and it
is on this account that they have been
sent here to school.
They crossed the Pacific in charge
of their cousin, Robert +. Heun, who
is associated with their father, his
uncle, in the lumber business, and
who is on his way to Richmond, Ind,
to be married.
Before leaving for the East Heun
took his young cousins to the convent
of Notre Dame at San Jose, where
they will be taught to speak United
States as well as they now write it.
The girls are lively as young colts
and gave young Heun some excellent
practise in the art of managing a
family.
Heun is engaged to marry Mrs.
Frances B. Corwin, daughter of How
ard Campbell, one of the first citi-
zens of Richmond, Ind. The wedding
will take place upon his arrival at
Richmond, and he will return to
Japan Immediately with his bride.
