Cool; , of Michigan, who died yesterday, held an unquestionable place as one of t;e first constitutional lawyers in the country. Few other men have been enable to contribute in larger measure or with greater profundity of learning to the literature of jurispru dence. His exceeding ability and fair ness in dealing with the problems aris ing out of the business of transporta tion led to his employment, first by the erreat railways and afterwards 011 be half of the Government, as an arbiter between the corporations and the peo ple in whose judgement all might rely for safe and sane conclusions. From his earliest work at the Bar to the end of his active labors 110 amount of work seemed to doubt or dissuade Judge Cooley. But he wore himself out. There is a limit to mental and physical endurance. For several years past he had been an intellectual wreck, con scious of his infirmities, and looking forward to death as an end rather to be hoped for than dreaded. Had he lived till January next he would have com pleted his 74th year.—Phila. Record. Don't. Don't judge a woman's complexion by the box it comes in. Don't attempt to borrow money 011 your wheel.

Kstimate That in the Pension List Will be Wiped Out. Col. James A. Sexton, of Chicago, was elected commander-in-chief of the G. A. R at Cincinnati, receiving 424 votes against 241 for A. D. Shaw, of New York. No other names were pre sented By a vote of 397 for Philadel phia to 293 for Denver, it was decided to hold the G. A. R. National Encamp ment of 1899 in the Quaker City. The report of the committee 011 pensions refutes the charge that the pension roll was a roll of dishonor. It cited the fact that expensive investigations had been undertaken by the department and after their close there had not been a single case of fraud discovered which could be traced to a member of the Grand Army of the Republic. The report went onto say that the roll was distinctly a roll of honor. It made a somewhat extended comparison with the work accomplished now and dur ing the last administration of Gen. Grant. This showed the efficiency of the department in the way of prompt disposal of claims had been vastly in increased. The committee gave figures showing that the death rate was rapidly increasing among pensioners. The number dying each year now exceeds 40,000. It is estimated that the increase in the number of deaths each year will belsuch that in 1920 the number ot pen sioners will be reduced to a little over 250,000 and in 1940 the list will be ob literated. The report recommended that just and liberal provisions should be made for adjudicating the claims now pending in the department and that no relaxation of efforts on the part of the Grand Army of the Republic bo allowed to interfere with this duty. The report of the adjutant-general, Thomas J. Stewart, gave the number of members in good standing on June 30, IH9S, as 300,1)08, of which 32,497 were affiliated with the 593 posts in Penn sylvania.
