He was born in Augusta, Me, in 1833, but had always been identi. field with Trilinois, because after his graduation from Bowdoin college at the age of twenty years. and admis- elon to the bar in 1856, he took up his residence in that state and for thirty- | two years was one of the most promi nent lawyers of that state. Before leaving his native city his talents had been recognized and he was made city attorney and president of the common council, and was also one of the editors of the Age, the lead. ing Democratic paper. These positions | he resigned to take up life in the west. | In 1862 he was named as a member | of the Illinois constitutional conven- tion, and the following year was elect- ed to the legislature. Prior to his ap- | pointment as chief justice he was seen | at all the state and national conven: | tions of his party, and his counsel was | widely sought by Democratic leaders. | President Cleveland offered him at different times the positions of solici- | tor general, civil service commissioner and member of the commission on Pa- cific railways; but all of these he de- clined. { At length, however, on the death of | Chiet Justice Waite, in 1887, the presi | ‘dent offered him the vacant position’ and he accepted it. From a financial | standpoint he made a great sacrifice. | At this time he was one of the fore- | most lawyers at the western bar, hav- | ing argued during the two decades previous more cases before the United States supreme court than any other lawyer in the west. His income was something like $75,000 a year. His salary as chief justice was only $10. 500. Chief Justice Fuller held third rank for length of service as presiding jus tice in the highest American tribunal. For twenty-two years he was chief justice. Chief Justice Marshall pre- sided for thirty-four years and Chiet Justice Taney for twenty-eight years The chief justice was expected to retire in 1906, but declined to do so, and his action doubtless had much to do with the election of Taft to the presidency. Roosevelt desired to make Taft chief justice. Fuller stood in the way. He held his job and Taft went to the White House. His first wife, Mrs. Mary E. Fuller, died while seated on the porch of the Sorrento home, where the chief jus. tice expired, in August, 1904. An Essay on Cats. A schoolboy wrote an essay on cats. The chapter on different breeds sup- plies the following information: “Cats that’s made for little boys and girls to maul and tease is called Mal- tease cats. Some cats is known by their queer purrs—these are called Pur- sian cats. Cats with very bad tempers is called Angorrie cats. Sometimes a very fine cat is called a Magnificat. Cats with deep feelin’s is called Feline cats.”—Exchange.

It is a curious fact that the people most celebrated for love of country should ip a manner be without a lun- guage—that is, a mother tongue. The Swiss have three official languages- German. French and Italian. About three-fourths of the population of the mountain confederation speak Ger man, while the remainder divide four other languages among them, chiefly French and [talian, these languages being found. as a rule, in districts in close proximity to the couutries where- in those languages are the principal tongue. In Switzerland documents nnd notices are printed in both the French and German languages. In the nation- al assembly members deliver their speeches in either French or German. for nearly all members understand both tongues. The decrees and procla- mations of the president are translated by an official interpreter and furnished to the press in both languages.—New York Press. Her Fault. The teacher in charge of the primary department at a school In West Phila delphia was talking the other day about her work and her puplils. “They are dear youngsters,” she said, “but they sometimes make curious re marks. Several times I have had oc- casion to reprove a little boy who isn't bad, but who is very mischievous aud annoying. He is always getting into trouble and making a disturbance. “One day he had been more than usually uproarious, and | was very tired. Instead of scolding or punish- ing him I began in rather an exasper- ated tone to talk to him. “ “Tom.’ | said, ‘I'm afraid I'm never going to meet you in heaven.’ “He looked up with the most shock: ed face. ‘Why, teacher,’ he said, ‘isn't that just too bad?
