Taft for the Supreme Bench.

The death OF Justice Lamar has
naturally excited conjecture as to
whether the President would offer the
vacant seat on the supreme bench To
ex-President Taft. not alone on the
ground of his conspicuous fitness but
as in the circumstances the man in
public life logically best entitled 10
the honor The fact that Justice La
mar. Democrat, owed his appoint
ment to Mr.. Taft would make the lat
ter's appointment by a Democratic
President an equally happy subordi-
nation of craftsmanship to public poll
cy.
Mr.. Taft's competence for any judi
cial office needs no encomium. When
Frederick n Judson published in
1905 his treatise on the interstate
commerce law, he dedicated it Ito
Honorable William Howard Taft,
L. ~, SQllGltiIlC JttbSS VI NiiN vi
cult court Of the United States, whose
name is written large on the pages OF
the judicial history of interstate com
merce' If that high tribute was de-
served at the time, the eleven years
that have elapsed have fully confirm
ed the estimate of Mr. Taft's fitness
for the highest judicial duties. TO his
earlier fame as an upright, just and
progressive Judge he has since added
the experience of governor general
of the Philippines, secretary OF war
and President of the United States.
Probably no living American has a
profounder acquaintance with the adj
of the law in all its as
poets.
Mr.. Taft's qualifications for a SUI
preme court justiceship are so obvi-
Gus that the question would seem to
be less one of his appointment than
Of his acceptance. Certainly the |
name of no other man occurs whose |
selection would accord so we'll with |
he dignity and traditions of the |
worlds greatest court.-New York |

Are you afraid to handle firearms? :? Do you hold your hands over your ears when the villain points his automatic at the hero and steals across the stage? Does the sudden report of a gun make you jump? Not if you are a trapshooter," says Mrs William A. Davis, of Chicago, one of the best of the many fair shooters in the so- cali ed windy city.
 Some women are afraid to touch a revolver or any kind of 9 gGIn," con tinued Mrs. Davis. '"They are afraid 10 have a gun about the house. Now Q gun, to my way of thinking, is just about as harmless a thing as there is, provided you know how to use it.
 If you want to become a trapshoot- er-nOt 9 champion or professional you must learn to love your gun.
 T shoot a twelve gauge gun that weighs seven and three -fOurths pounds. This is the type used by many of the best shots of the country. For my twelve-year-Old daughter, Caro- line, MT. Davis has provided a twenty gauge gun that weights five and one

Harvard's superior boatmanship, and that Yale would also have broken the record in the varsity race had not the Yale cOxswain fouIed one of the mark CTS early in the race, are some of the observations of Guy NickaIIs the Yale crew coach, in his summing up of the AaIe-HarVard regatta at New London in the Yale Alumni Weekly. Nickaus stOutly defends his English stroke and the thOle pine rigging and declares thai the winning Harvard stroke was an adaptation of the English stroke.
 Summing up the conditions as re- sreCt1ng Yale rowing, he says:
 Yale methods are bound to come in for much criticism, and it is not OuI intention to fOrestan them or ward them off. Our shoulders are broad and we cannot expect to make good every year. Still there is no denying this has been a most disappointing year for Yale rowing. We swept the beard last year and the board has swept us this year with the same style and rigging. With the identical meth od we could not reproduce the same pace. Let it be granted that our new shells were failures and our old shells winch we had to fall back on, weak and Habby, that our cONsWain did not do himself justice, and we failed tC find the ideal stroke. That does not account for everything. The under graduate expects too much to be done for him and he must learn to do more for himself. Tn Seth Low we had a captain loved and admired by all WhG had the honor of knowing him. Per SOnalIE, to me, 1t is a great sorrow that l could not work as l would, make good for him. I cannot speak too highly of CCEsWain NCLaneS vOun- tary retirement. He is a true Yale sportsman and although he would not have fD17laT have made the Yale crew win. He retiTes within a winning record freat- ly to his credit. Lawrence strOSed 9 difficult crew far better than any other man on the varsity squad could have done Harvard is rightly and proper ly jubilant-and they have every right tO be-Dut let them remember that our defeat was not so disastrous as was theirs last year and that the bull dog has tenacity.
 'No one need listen to the rawlings of self-styled champions and the like as regards the advantages of disad- TantageS of the fixed taOIe pins. Suf- fee it to say that fixed thOle pins hold all the records in England, Bel glum, Sweden and for at least four courses in America. When the water is it to race upon the thOla pins must and always will hold the advantage. When the water is utterly unfit for proper rowing and racing, then proper rowing gear and rlgElng are naturally out Of the question and out of place. The swivel rOWlOCk as used in all sea boats has the advantage but rowing shells arc not designed or built for rough water. Rowing in such water is deprived of all it's nice points and resolves itself into merely a trial of animal brute strength a sagainst fnesse and polish"
 NicIlaIIs in his article extends con gratulauons to Coach Herrick of Har- yard, and says: Like all American coaches who have visited England he prOfircd by the lessons learned there. He was ably assisted by Bill Haines, of Old England, who trained me in my young days and knows a thing or two"

A GUN IS A HARMLESS THING WHEN YOU KNOW
 HOW TO HANDLE IT
That What Mrs William Davis Says, and She Knows Be- She is Quite Proficient in Breaking Targets

half pounds. Little guns for little girls Mr. Davis says, and I pass this on to you.
 Your arm and shoulder muscles may not be trained well enough to handle heavy gun. If you are light, in weight you will probably want a gun the size of Caroiine's.
 'The gun must fit. The first test for size is to rest the but of the stock in the crook of the arm, holding the gun straight up in the air. Then the trigger finger of your right arm (un- less you are a left-handed s7hooter) must rest lightly and easily on the trigger.
 Some gun shops have a test gum with complicated stock that enables them to adjust it to your shoulder to a niCety."
 Chicago has many excellent women trapshoOters who engage in competi- ton with the men and who are able to hold their own. The above advice given gratuitously by Mrs. Davis should be of invaluable aid to many young women who are just learning to shoot.

EBR0OKLYN-CHICAGO HAVE SQUABBLE
Umpire Foreits Game Brooklyn When Tinker Refused Leave Field-Score Tied When Arguments Arose-Tink- CT Claims Brooklyn Players Were Stealing Signals.

Chicago July 1S.-Chicago forfeited to Brooklyn today by the technical score of g to 0 because Manager Tin ker refused to- leave the field when Umpire Byron ordered him away. By a batting rally in the sixth Brooklyn had tied the score and the teams went into the tenth with the count 4 and 4. On a wild throw by Knabe, by which NyersTeached second base at the start of the. tenth, taking third later, John ston stole second while Vaughn was pitching to O'NIara, Byron charged him with delaying the game, finally calling a ball while the Cub pitcher held the spheFeain his hand. Manager Tinker voiced 8 violent protest and refused to leave the field, claiming that the Brooklyn players were steal ing the Chicago signals and that Vaughn's delay was merely to gain time to inform Catcher Fischer of it, Byron was obdurate, however, and called e policeman to eject Tinker. While the policeman hesitated Byron counted the minutes and finally de- clared the game forfeited. The Cubs were unable to hit in four innings that Coombs worked. Brooklyn was held hitless by Mcdonnell until the sixth, when he and Seaton were driven out and the score tied.
 Archer, the Cub catcher, broke a finger in the game. The score:
