Connolly Should Be Given
Honor He Deserves AS Jurist

Judge of the recorders court. the Repub-
leans will pay him due courtesy anC

ing him unopposed.
Unfortunately, the charter does not
permit an automatic succession in case
Of this kind, and the judge who would
receive the added honor must take mere
or less risk in asking for il.
The Times has often voiced objection
TO Judge Connolly, but never as judge
only as a politician.
As jurist. he has been a model for
judges of a criminal court.
Learned in the law, and in many
branches outside Jurisprudence as well;
broad and tolerant by nature; informal
in practice. yet maintaining a due regarG
for the dignity of his position; 2 loyal
co-worker with Judge PheIan-by his
qualities and by his acts, Judge Connolly
has earned the rank which he seeks
Efficiency is a watchword in his court
by persistence, and by cooperation with
Judge Phelan, he reduced the docket
until there is no criminal court in the
country in which justice is more speedily
rendered than in those of Detroit.
For the last month. the entire burden
of the court has fallen on Judge Con-
molly. and without complaint he has held
sessions morning, afternoon and evening,
to keep the work up to the mark. o
The people of Detroit owe it to Judge
Connolly to make him recorder with the
least possible trouble to him and to
themselves.

STAINS WOMAN WARRIOR.

The Maid ot sarasossa and How She
 Saved Her City.
 The Spaniards have erected a monu ment to the memory of Angostina Zaragoza. whose bravery during the peninsular war saved her city.
 In July. 1908, the French were press ing hard upon Saragossa. The hardes, fighting occurred at Portillo gate where the assaulting batteries more than once reached the dilapidated earthworks The gunners of the Span fish battery were shot down one after another, the survivors falling before they could discharge the last loaded gun.
 The infantry finched. and the French were closing in when a young woman betrothed to young sergeant of artil. lery who had just fallen rushed in, snatched the lighted match from her dying lovers hand and fired the undis- charged twenty-four pounder into the head of the advancing column.
 The enemy was thrown back. The citizens with cheer rushed forward, reoccupied the battery and the assault was checked.
 Angostina Zaragoza received from her government a commission as sub lieutenant of the artillery and life pension. A few years later she was seen by an English traveller serving with her battery in Andalusia. She wore a blue artillery tunic. on the sleeve of which was a shield of honor Washington Star.

The Germans, indeed, to pay for everything they obtained promised not to molest the Belgians, to pay for everything they obtained in case Belgium would offer no re- sistance. For that reason, people say, all Belgium had to do was simply to remain passive. If we want to know what would have happened to Bel gium had she acted as Germany re- quested her to do, we need but lis ten to the reports lately received from Luxemburg. There the Germans met with no resistance, and yet the Luxemburgers today are starving.
 "Why does not Germany take care of them? Must we then not conclude that the selfsame treatment now given to Luxemburg would have been given to Belgium; that Is to say, that Ger many would have done nothing to keep the Belgians alive. They would have been treated as a conquered na. tion; they would have been forced in to the German navy; and besides they would have been looked upon, in the eyes of the whole world, as towards"

SWISS MILITARY SYSTEM.
With No Standing Army Every Citizen
 10 a Trained Soldier.

10 Trained Soldier. The republic of Switzerland furnish. es an example in the way of military preparedness well worth study. It has no standing army. and yet every man is trained soldier and can at any time be called upon to defend his country.
 Military training in Switzerland be- gins at the age of eight years. From the ages of seventeen to forty-nine service is compulsory at the call of the state. All males not incapacitated serve thirteen years in the aufzug, twelve years in the landwehr and six years in the landsturm. From eight years to seventeen the boys receive military instruction In the public schools, and when they enter the auf. zug they are prepared for actual train. Ing in arms. In the first year of their service they spend from sixty-seven to ninety-two days in camp or maneuvers. depending upon whether they belong to cavalry. infantry. artillery or engi. neers. In each subsequent year they serve thirteen days.
 The total service for the thirteen years Is Al days for infantry. 148 for engineers, 160 for cavalry and 163 for artillery. This makes a total of less than six months for the thirteen years. but the training is that of actual war. fare and the product Is trained and seasoned soldiers.
 This Swiss force can only be called for defense against invasion. For an offensive campaign new army must be raised by volunteering.-Newark News

How to Know Hemlock.

The occasional reports in the papers of children or animals being poisoned by eating some umbelliferous plant emphasizes the importance of being able to distinguish the dangerous ones In the case of hemlock itself, the most poisonous of all, this IS not difficult Notice first the dark green, much cut and divided leaves and the peculiar odor which botanists call fetid But perhaps the most obvious thing and that which most easily distinguishes the hemlock from all other umbeilif. erous plants is the stem.

DANCING SUPERIOR
 TO GYMNASTICS IN
 NEW YORK SCHOOLS
institution Has Proved of Great Benefit to Children and a
 Revelation to Teachers.

Dancing has been found superior to gymnastics in, the public schools of New York in that, like the latter, it has the clement of "controI' and in addition the play element. 1t is said that in dancing has been found ''the form of organized play. which will, bring the greatest amount of good to each child" according to a recent article in the Literary Digest It was introduced by writers in The Worlds Work, to give school girls -sinteresting and helpful recreation that would have a real part in their lives outside of school hours" When the proposal was made to take up dancing in the schools an exercise for girls according to the writers, Dr. Luther H. Gu1ick and Harry J. Smith, three things were said in it's fa- vor''
 "The first was that in the limited space of the gymnasium, the roof playground. or the school basement a larger number of children could be handled at once in a dance than in any other way. The second was that in 9, given space there was more real, a11-around physical exercise in danc- ing than in gymnastics or in any team game. And the last was that in the few instances where it had alEeady been tried elsewhere, the children had
 
 was the strong argument; for it must never be forgotten that the object of Che undertaking was primarily to de- ve1op the play spirit. Anything per- functory would defeat it's own ends''
 The enterprise began as an experi- ment, and a few after school classes for little girls in the lower grades and for those in the grammar schools were started. Several New York women of influence and position gave it their support, for the funds neces- sary to it's maintenance, it may be said, are not provided by the city How it has grown out of the experi- mental stage may be seen by the fol- lowing:
 Already the number of classes had grown to sixty-eig1t and between two and three thousand children are get ting instruction. More than 175 teach CTS, all of them from the regular staff of the public schools, had voluntarily taken hold of the work, without pay, giFing up hours of their scanty leis- ure to itAand a, New York teachers out -scho ooI leisure was a precious commodity.
