Shortest Charge to Jury.

If brevity is the soul of wit, Judge
Taylor, X. c., has not many rivals
among his judicial brethren. Sum
ming up a case which lasted several
hours, says the Liverpool Post. he
said no more than this: Gentlemen,
you have heard both sides. 1t is for
you to say which you believe" Even
this does not represent Judge Tay-
lor's best effort in the way of saw
ing his breath. A few years ago he
delivered himself of what is supposed
to be the shortest summing up on
record. He turned to the jury, raised
his eyebrows inquiringly, and re-
Marked well, gentlemen" The
art of brevity could no further go.

The Wonderful Aphis,

The Aphis is in one way the most
startling Of all forms of insect life,
for, although the females can and do
lay eggs, its usual method of in
crease is by sort of budding process,
the young growing on the bodies Of
the parent exactly as brussels sprouts
grow out of the stalks of the plant
The old produce young at the rate Of
twenty-five a day, and as the young
are at once mature each can pro-
duce its twenty-five on the following
day. 1t positively frightens one to
work this multiplication out to a con-
clusion, for it means this Surprising
that the aphide could increase and
multiply without interference, the
twenty-fifth generation would be a
number too long to quote here. Put
down a l and follow 1t with twenty
eight naughts and you will be within
a few millions of it.

Visiting Police TO Make a
Charge, He's Arrested Instead

SUMMIT, June 19.-The easiest ar
rest on a warrant ever made by the
local police was made early today,
when Alexander Zaluoski, of Aubrey
street. walked into police headquar-
tiers and was arrested on charge of
attempted assault. Zaluoski did not
come to surrender himself. however.
He had intended to make a similar
complaint against Charles Moboa. Of
North Summit, but the latter beat
him to it"
The counter charges of assault had
their origin last night, when Moboa
and several girl companions were
walking along Morris avenue Tsey
were aecosted by Zaluoski, who, Mo-
boa S warrant char ges, used some oh-
jectionable language. Moboa remon-
straated with him. Nhereupon Ia
luoski is said to have drawn .32-
calibre revolver and tried to shoot.
But the gun missed fire. Moboa then
bounced on him, an dafter leaving a
remembrance on his face, TOOK MS
gun away from him and had the "a ar
rant sworn out for his arrest.

NOT A CANDIDATE
FOR G.. D. P HEAD
Benjamin F. Jones' So Declares
in a Long Statement Issued
to the Press Today.

County Counsel Benjamin f. Jones,
who is also vice-chairman of the Els
sex County Republican Committee,
declared in a statement issued today
that he is not a candidate for the
embarrassing, from which Herbert
w. Taylor has resigned, all state
ments to the contrary notwithstand-
ing. Here is the way Mr.. Jones puts
it.
considerable space has been given
in the press recently TO a discussion
as to the possibility of my being a
candidate for the Craftsmanship OF
the Republican County Committee,
most of such statements being based
upon the assumption that | was in
receptive mood. | want to state most
emphatically that / am not a candi-
date for the office of chairman of the
Republican County Committee. If
had had an ambition in that direc-
ton, l should certainly have an
nounced my candidacy in 1912, when
Mr.. Dalrymple resigned.
II stated at that time that | would
not, under any circumstances, accept
the craftsmanship of the committee,
and l have not since made any state
ment to the contrary The present
discussion has been brought about
by the wholly unauthorized use of my
name, and | want to reiterate what
l have continually stated to my
friends-that l will not, under any
circumstances, become a candidate
for or accept the chairmanship of the
| Republican county committee.
There are a number of candidates
for the Republican nomination for
many of the larger county offices,
and the fact that all of these candi
dates are strenuously fighting for the
nomination is the best indication
that there is a widespread belief that
the Republican candidates will be
elected this fall
1.-THE county committee has taken
no action in indorsing any candidate,
and this policy will of course be
strictly followed during the primary
campaign, Notwithstanding the fact
that some over enthusiastic support
ers of certain candidates are trying
to stir up trouble by insinuating to
the contrary.
"All of the Republican candidates
whose names have been mentioned
thus afr are gentlemen of the high
est integrity and ability, and are
qualified for the offices to which they
aspire. 1t is important, however,
that the primary contest should be
kept free from personalities and I'M
fairness.
mo candidate can be successful
who tries to help his candidacy by
Misrepresentation or unfair methods,
and if every candidate will notify all
of his supporters that such tactics
will not be tolerated by him [ am
sure that the result will be the selec-
ton of the best candidates for each
office, and that will ensure the tri-
election of the Republican
candidates"

Wisdom of Quiet.

More than half century OF exist
ance has taught me that most of the

their souls in quiet; that most of the
good which saves mankind from de-

thoughtful stiffness. Every day the

men of the chrysanthemum known
to have been grown in England-per-
haps in Europeans reared at the
Botanic Gardens, Chelsea, in 1854, and
the flowers rise into popular favor in
the nineteenth century was chiefly due
to the good work done by the Stoke

This society held its first exhibition
of blossoms in 1916 and served not
only as a model for all similar asso-
Citations, but also as school of chrys-
