Judge Wright that President Roose-
welt had appointed him a. associat te
Justice Of the District Supreme Court
In 1903. Despite the opposition of the
then political boss of Ohio. George 3.
Cox. and Senator Mark Hanna, the
Senate approved his nomination.
Judge Wright resigned from the Dis
trict Supreme Court In October Of
1914. and again resumed the practice
OF law,
He married Miss Alice williams, of
Riverside, Ohio, in 1SG. and has four
children. three daughters. all married,
and one son. The daughters are Mrs.
Durant Church. Mrs. Harry A. Kite
and Mrs. Robert ". Fleming. The son
is Daniel Thew Wright Sd. and is IL
years Of age and lives with his father
at the Dresden apartments.
Judge Wright has the distinction OF
breaking the only will that was ever
broken in Montgomery County. Nd.
He contested the famous Charles Par
ker will in 1917, and on the day before
Christmas he succeeded in getting a
share of a ssoo,o estate for some of
Parker's children by one Of his two
wives that he omitted to provide
for in his will.
The most famous case Judge Wright
was ever called upon to decide while
associate Justice of the District Su-
preme Court was the famous Buck
Stove and Range case. in which Sam
uel Gompers, Frank Morrison and
Charles Mitchell. all labor leaders.
were charged with contempt of court
and given jail sentences.
Judge Wright is an ardent baseball
fan. He once pitched for a team in
Ohio that did not lose single game
in three years. He is a motorboat en-
thusiast. owning his own nnotorboat
and knows the Potomac River and its
tributaries better than most pilots.
He is an expert with tools and loves
to tinker with machinery.

Like father. like son." an old ex-
preston. applies more to Judge Daniel
Thew Wright than most any other
man in the city.
Judge Wright is a lawyer, his father
was a lawyer and his grandfather
was a lawyer. And more than that
his brother, Judge Wright. is also a
lawyer.
The Wright family have been read
ing law for the last $50 years, and
win continue to read law for a good
many more years. Even with all this
study of musty volumes and the guam
tity of midnight oil that has been
burned they have had ample oppor-
tunity to distinguish themselves in
politics and elsewhere.
Judge Daniel Thew Wright. with
whom this story deals. was born in
Riverside. Ohio. In 1864. the son OF
Daniel Thew Wright. then associate
justice of the Supreme Court of Ohio
The expression, like father, like
SON." applies very strongly here,
Judge Wright was a Judge, as was
his father
Both sat on the bench of a supreme
court The son was associate justice
of the Supreme Court of the District
His father. bearing the identically
same name, sat on the bench of the
Ohio State Supreme Court. Both prac-
ticed law extensively before sitting or
the bench.
There is still another Daniel Thew
Wright. This one. number three. Is
but Is years OF age. He-leans toward
law, too.
Judge Wright's grandfather. Ma
thanieI Wright, practiced law in 1902
He urged his son to study law. who
in turn urged his son to take up tbs
same study. All were successful. AL
made a name for themselves.
Judge Wright received his educa'
ton in Riverside. later graduatinl
from the Cincinnati Law School at tbs
age of q. A year later he was elect
ed village solicitor Of Riverside. Will,
holding this Office he was elected
mayor OF Riverside in 1887, and while
holding this Office was elected assist
ant prosecutor for Hamilton County.
Judge Wright was an intimate frient
OF William Mckinley, the martyret
President, then governor of Ohio.
He was n close personal friend o.
the late Senator ]. B. Foraker. and 4
was Senator Foraker who first notified

RELIGIOUS UNITY,
PASTORS PLEA
Rev. Nehemiah Boynton
breaches at Liberty Hut
Mass Meeting.

We pay for our achievements, .
Rev. Nehemiah Boynton. pastor Of
Clinton Avenue Congregational
Church, Brooklyn, declared at the
weekly mass meeting in Liberty Hut
yesterday.
To-day the people Of the United
States have the greatest victory Of the
world in the hollow Of their hands, j"
he said. What are we going to do
with II? :
I'VE cannot appropriate this victory
sratuitously. We must reproduce over
here something Of the spirit of
sacrifice shown by those to whom the
victory is due"
DR.. Boynton declared the world was
awakening to a wider appreciation of
ethics-a standard that would be APP
plicable both in the social and
religious world.
There are the newborn ethics of
labor" he said, ''the theory that the
iaborlng man ought and is bound to
have fair share OF the wealth his
labor creates. We are bringing our
IDEALS Of Christianity up to- date and
the world Is better for it,
The speaker declared that with the
new appreciation of ethics had been
~SNA a hS" scHst OF Ile eternal.
brought to the notice of the world by
the men who had shared in the great
struggle.
Ask them" he said, for a defini-
tion of religion and they will tell YOU
that It is betting your life there is a
God"
DIR. Boynton pleaded for a COM
munity spirit among Christian de-
nominations.
There isn't a denomination m
Christendom," he said, but that was
created In a bygone age to meet the
needs of that age. which have passed
away. Today the denomination must
prove that 1t is meeting adequately
the demands Of the present day II II
is to exist" :
j. X. Edwards, secretary Of the Y.
M. c. A. at the Liberty Hut, presided,
and Percy Foster led the singing.
DR.. Brewer, pastor of the Temple
Baptist Church, led the devotional
exercises.
Mr.. Edwards annonced that William
Jennings Bryan would speak at the
meeting next Sunday.

MENACE TO HUMANITY.

In connection with the sta tements which have been made about the inef- fectiveness of the federal drug law the fact that theye may be weak spots therein or that there is not the proper enforcement. is 10 be considered. but it is evident nevertheless that large part of the illegal traffic is due to the fact that there are those who are conniVing to outwit the government authorities at every point. defy the law and see that those who want the dangerous drugs are fully provided.
 This has been revealed by the sev eraI instances where doctors and
 druggists have purposely winked at
 the law and concentrated their
 thoughts upon breaking it rather than respecting it because of the handsome
 financial returns that are involved.
 But how the narcotics are obtained for distribution in violation of the re-
 strictions of the federal law is re-
 vealed by the arrest of a gang of five opium Smugglers who were planning the distribution of s50.090 to s100.000 worth of the dope throughout the country in violation of the law. But for the honesty of the express clerk whom the smugglers supposed they had silenced by a bribe. but who had confided in ..the internal revenue de
 partment, the scheme would doubtless have been successfully accomplished regardless Of the addition to the hor- rible conditions that would have been caused .by-sucal, drugs. IL is therefore evident that the greatest vigilance is required not only in dealing with those who have a right to deal in drugs un- der the provisions of the law but. those who are determined to carry on the much more profitable Illegal traffic and it is plainly evident that none but the severest penalty is justified in punishing such violators. They are a menace to humanity that cannot be too quickly suppressed.

PUBLIC TRANSFORMATION.

For a considerable period of time the street railway question has been a serious one Throughout the country In view of the great dependence that is placed upon it by the public it is only natural that there should be gen eral interest to what the future of such transportation is going to- be. Many roads have gone out of business, many more have gone into the hands of receivers and others are lowering on the brink of bankruptcy because the steadily increasing expenses call for greater revenue and that increa Sed revenue is dependent upon grea ter pa tronase, since nothing arouses greater opposition today than an increase in trolley fares. even though they are entirely justified. The willingness to pay for all other service rendered dis appears when it comes to trolley ser vice.
 In this connection it iss interesting to note what new inventions may do to meet the situation. The Electric Rail- way Journal says Henry Ford has just placed an order for two types of cars, large one to be used on steam rails and smaller one to be used on street car. rails. They are to be pro- pelled with a new. type gaSolene en- zine which, he claims, can be oper- aJ0d 2uU per CeHl CnedpeI tiidli SIcI- tricity as now used for passenger car operation. He expects to try out the larger car by operating it between New York and Chicago. following one of the fastest trains the line. If Mir Ford does what he claims it will mean a revolution in the transPorta- ton industry, both steam and e1ec- tric'
 Various types of cars are being test
 f<1,- the purpose of cutting operating costs, and it is not improbable that through MT. Ford's or some other new inven- lions that the whole street railway situation may be put on a different basis.

REVoKING THE LICENSES.

Interest cannot fail 10 be taken in the report rom Boston tc the effect that II motorists of western Massa = chusetts have been notified by the highway commission that they have been barred rom the highways of that state because Of their violations of the motor laws Whether or not these revocauons are permanent or not it becomes evident that there is some effort being made by the authorities TO secure respect for inc laws and safety for the users of the highways.
 T. was only recently that complaint was made that auto drivers from Massachusetts displayed q disregard fc- the motor laws Of this state If they do not. or are not made to. live up 70 the laws in their own common wealth it can hardly be expected that they would do so in d neighboring state. simply for the reason that mo- tcr law violation has become so much Of habit with them a home that they think nothing Of winking al the law wherever they are
 The drivers whose licenses were re- voked committed various offenses from driving while under the influence Of liquor 10 being involved in acci- den-s where deaths resulted. and while ir Is not tC be supposed that they were the only ones to violate the mo- tor laws the importance Of the lessons Of their eases 10 others should not be overlooked. IT each and everyone who disresarus the provisions of the law was treated likewise there would be less inclination to evade them, a better respect for the rights of oth- CTS and the assumption of the respon- si5iIity that devoives upon every auto driver Such will come through law enforcement, and while other penal ties certainly cannot be overlooked, the denial of the right to drive auto mobiles Is bound to bring such viola tors 70 their senses.

THE HEAVENS DURING SEPTEMBER

Venus ends it's career as an evening 1 star this month and leaves the heav- ems singularly devoid of planets. a state of affairs which we notice par ticularly after the richness of the ev- ening skies in planets earlier in the year. Mars, Jupiter and Saturn all are morning stars in September though the latter will not be easily ob servabie until the end of the month. Uranus alone finds a place on our monthly map. But in bright stars the sky is still very rich. The map shows no less than even of the first magnitude. In
 almost overhead is the notable trian- gle formed by Vega in Lyra. Deneb in Cygnus and Altair in Aduila, the Eagle. On the far northern horizon
 will be found rising the besutiful clear white Capella. and far down in the
 southeast is the very red star. Fo- malhaut in Piscis Australis. the
 Southern Fish. The great square in Pegasus is well above the horizon.
 One should not focus all ones at
 tention upon the brighter objects. for there is many light in the sky which
 though it does not catch the eve as readily as the stars of the first mag
 nitude, yet is Of the greatest interest when one knows something of what
 the astronomers have learned con corning it. Let us take such a case in point. Far in the northeast is the const tellati ton of Perseus, and in it. on the map you will find a star of the second magnitude called Algol. This is what the astronomers call varia-
 ble star. i. C.. A star which changes in brightness. To some persons who have read poetical aIluSionS to the i'm muta bility of the stars this may come S somewhat of a surprise: but the number of variable stars in the heav- ems is extremely large. The term va riable is never used by astronomers to indicate change of position, but all ways refers to the bri1liancy.
 There are many different types of these variable stars: they are clasSi
 fled according to the way in which their brightness changes Some are very irregular; in others the change follows a definite cycle. always re- turning to the beginning state. Such stars are called periodic variables. Al gol in Perseus is one of these: it's changes in brightness have been ob- served for many years and can now be predicted with great accuracy Its usual magnitude is given IS 2.2, but at regular intervals it's brightness falls off to the 3.4 magnitude, which rep resents a loss Of about two thirds of it's light. The change takes place ev- cry two days and twenty hours. ap- proxima teIy, the decline in brightness taking a about four and one half hours and the recovery three and one-half The min iInum stage lasts about tWen- ty minutes This variation in mag nitude is quite great enough to make possible it's observation. without the with the neighboring stars, which do not undergo such changes.
 Many years ago an astronomer Sug- gested a possible explanation of the AIsol phenomenon. which has since been substantiated and established as
Norwich bulletin., 1919-09-06

I correct It is very simple: Algol is not a single body but really com posed of two. which revolve about | their common center of gravity in or | bits. The plane of this motion is so | located that periodically one of the bodies gets between us and the other. Since there is only one minimum of brightness in each complete period. one of the stars must be bright and the other one comparatively dark. The minimum occurs when the dark one ecIipses the brighter one; if both were of appreciable brilliancy. there would be two minimal stages in each period, the relative intensity depend ing upon the relative lun1inosfties of the two components of the double star: This remarkable property of demon star and in the ancient Creek uranograpl1ies if figured as the
 head of Medusa, which the hero of Perseus had cut off.
 Another variable star of a some what different type is Beta Lyrae the second brightest star in the group to which Vega belongs.
 We wish to call special attention to Capella, white star of the first mag nitude, which is to be found in the northern heavens not far from the horizon. It is. next to Vega. the brightest star in the northern celeS tial hemisphere. and it's magnitude is given as 0.2 This star is also bi- nary: it is really composed of two stars which revoIve about each other. Tn this case the period of revolution is 104 days. and the mean distance be- tween them is about fifty million
 miles The entire system is moving
 in a direction away from us at the rate of about twenty miles per second, and the distance from us al present is
 about thirty-six light years, or 220,-
 00O 900 900 900 miles. If the Sun were
 as far from Earth as Capella is it
 would be only one-seventieth as bright
 as CapelIa appears to be. The spec
 trum Of CapeHa is very much like that
 of the Sun. showing that the physical
 condition of the two are about the
 same. It is very possible, therefore,
 that we may nave here q system with
 planets like those in the solar system,
 having two great central suns, in
 stead of one.
 On the morning of the 9th. at 2.36
 by mean time, or at S.35. by the day
 light saving time. the Sun enters the
 autumnal Squinox crossing the equa-
 tor bound south, and Autumn officially
 commences. We may say "officially,'
 because the American Ephemeris and
 Nautical Almanac. published by the
 navy department, says that it then
 commences. On this day. night and
 day would be exactly equal if it were
 not for the effect of atmospheric re-
 fraction. which tends apparently to
 raise all objects in the sky toward the
 sky toward the zenith and leads us
 to see the Sun before it has really
 risen and after it has really set below
 the geometrical horizon. Tn taking ob-
 servations of the heavenly bodies. as
 in naviga ton. for example. allowance
 has to be made for this phenomenon.
 otherwise the calcula tions would be apDreciably off. However, we will not
 be far wrong if we say that on this date the day and night are equal.
