An appeal to the dictionary discloses the fact that an agrostologist is one versed in in agrost ology, and that the latter is the science pertaining to grasses. The Agricult nr al Department, whifh needs the services of this scientist, wants one who is emi nently versed in botany and particular ly in grasses, both theoretically and practically. Just what his seryices are to be is not explained, but apparently he is to give the public knowledge on a very important subject, and it would seem as if it ought not to expect too much for the compensation offered. In the far West at present agrostolo gists whose knowledge is confined to the proper use of the scythe or the mowing ma hine are getting throe dol lars a day, so the government cannot be accused of paying too much.

J, C. McNees was appointed register ing assessor of Ist precinct. Third Ward vice Chas. Roessing resigned. By another vote of five to four the United Btates Supreme Court lias nsiain decided that theConstitutiou and the flag are not necessarily co-temporaneous travelers. The case just determined was an appeal from a conviction for murder obtained in Hawaii after the annexation of the Republic and before the erection of the Territory, when by the resolution of annexation all Hawai ian laws "not contrary to the Constitu tion of the United States'' were con tinued in force. The contention was that the accused was convicted under the insular code, in violation of the con stitutional requirements, being tried without indictment by tlio grand jury and convicted by a majority instead of a unanimous vote of the petit jury. "Gentlemen" said a judge addressing the jury in a recent Irish case reported in Law Notes, "you have heard the evi dence. The indictment says the prison er was arrested for stealing a pig. The offense seems to be a common one The time has come when it must be put a stop to; otherwise, gentlemen, none of you will be safe." The refusal of a lower court to grant a charter for the incorporation of a Chris tian Science Church and the confirm ation by the Supreme Court of that re fusal will call attention to the frequent ly forgotten circumstance that the grant of a charter is of grace and not of right. In the theory and to a considerable extent in the practice of the law a cor poration is not creoted for the benefit of the incorporators. It is created for the sake of the community in the midst of which its Influence is to be exerted and its activites applied. The advantage which the incorporat ors themselves may derive from the co operation which they propose is a mere ly sudordinate and incidental feature of the situation. It is a negligible quanti ty of which the law takes no account. Is the purpose which this corpc ration is designed to serve one whose achieve ment is likely to be helpful to the peo pie? That is the great question, that is the only question which the courts in this connection have to consider and de termine. PROPERTY TRANSFERS. Thos H. Brown to W. B.
