President Judge Lynch. From the Wilkesbarre Record. It seems to be the settled purpose of the Republicans not to oppose the re election of President Judge Lynch, whose first term on the bench expires with the present year. As he is now the only representative of the Demo cratic party on our bench of four common picas judges, there would bo no propriety in the Republicans oppos ing him, if his own party shall see fit to nominate him. as presumably it will. The Record has always favored the re tention of aide, impartial and honest judgos, regardless of their politics, and this correct rule can be consistently ad hered to in the case of President Judge Lynch, who has demonstrated that he possess the qualities as well as the qualifications that constitute the de sirable judge. During tho more than nine years he lias been on the bench ho has at all times been fair, impartial, honest and courageous in the performance of every duty that devolved upon him. His sound judgment, admirable judicial temper and fine knowledge wf law, coupled with his absolute fearlessness in the administration of justice, coin mend Judge Lynch to tho hearty sup port of right-minded citizens regardless of politics. Wo believe in a rightly constituted non-partisan judiciary. Judge Lynch was elected as a Demo crat, but he has not carried his politics with him on the bench, and conse quently ho has been a non-partisan judge, and Republicans as well as Democrats can consistently give him their support for re-election. Republicans can all tho more readily and cheerfully support Judge Lynch In view of tho fact that they already have three of the four common pleas judges, and with the election of Judge Wlieaton will continue' that supremacy for not less than eight years. There is more or less loose talk about convening the Republican county committee to nomi nate a second candidate for additional law judge. If any such project lias been or is being seriously considered it is hoped it will bo abandoned forthwith. There would be neither good sense nor good politics in the Republicans endeavoring to secure all the judges.* It is not de sirable from any proper standpoint that the entire bench <f foir common pleas judges should belong to a single political party. Judge Lynch should be re-elect ed without Republican opposition, if the Democrats nominate him, as they prob ably will. _ For Atlantic City Visitors.

A visitor at the White Ilouse found the wife of the president busy as usual knitting the woolen tops to slipper soles. A pleasant protest that the first lady of the land should so steadily em ploy herself was well answered. Why shouldn't she knit the slippers? It Was about nil that she could do in her state of health. Perhaps the good accom plished was more than the caller ap preciated. And then the gentle lady told with undisguised satisfaction of the sale of a pair of her slippers at a New England fair for a good purpose. The slippers had brought $330, which had gone for the benelit of the cause. If there existed a desire for the posses sion of a pair of slippers knitted by the wife of the president measured by such a sum, why should she not try to meet it and thereby extend help to worthy objects. Mrs. MeKlnley de fended her vocation admirably. Relating to the leather soles of these slippers, there Is a story which en hances their value. Mrs. MeKlnley tohl It recently. On one occasion, early in the lirst term, Vice President Ilobart came into the presence of the lady while she had her knitting in hand. He picked up from a table near by a sole upon which work had not been begun. "Where do you get these?" ho asked when ho had learned of the charitable purpose of the Industry. Mrs. MeKlnley replied that she bought the soles by the dozen. "Well," said the vice president, "these tire made at my factory. I will see that hereafter you ore supplied with the soles for the slipjuTs without cost Tliut shall he my contribution to the good work." From tlmt day, so long ns he lived. Vice President Ilobart saw that the stock of soles, as often as it ran low through Mrs. McKlnley's Industry, was replenished, and after the death of the vice president Mrs. Ilobart continued the contribution from the factory. Town Lota ant) Farina. During fflie boom days in a small town in southern California, when town lots were staked out all over the country, a Mr. Rrown offered to sell a Mr. Jones some of his town lots. Mr. Jones was not ready to buy, but of fered In exchange some of his farm land, asking Mr. Brown to show him the lots. They stepped into a buggy "TIIAT IS BETWEEN HERE AND THE TOWN." and after quite a drive came to Brown's lots, some distance from the main part of the town. Mr. Jones thought they were nice level lots, and, encouraged thereby, Brown asked him, "Now, where is your farm land situat ed?" "My land?" repeated Jones. "Oh, that is between here and the town!" Naturally the trade did not go through. Turned Off the CJnn. Here is a story of the late Paul Rniney, the coke magnate, and his friend, the late Charles Latimer, emi nent engineer. Mr. Latimer was a firm believer In the peculiar virtues of the divining rod. He used it with sin gular success. He wrote a pamphlet about It. He was widely known as a supporter of the claims that were made for it. Consequently when his friend Itainey went ahead and bored for natural gas without consulting Mr. Latimer and his divining rod the engi neer felt hurt and a little provoked. "Why, man," be said, "here you've gone ahead and let blind chance guide you, while I would have located the sure thing if you had only sent me word." "But I struck it," protested Mr. Itainey. "Struck what?" cried Mr. Latimer. "Struck a pocket, that's what you've struck. You'll see. It can't last, I tell you. You've made one of the biggest mistakes of your life." And thereafter every time Mr. Lati mer met Mr. Raiuey he berated him for scorning the divining rod and warned him that his gas supply would soon le exhausted. Mr. Raiuey began to expect tills at-' tack every time Mr. Latimer came in sight, and lie prepared himself to coun teract It by saying, "But the gas still flows, Charley." And the divining rod's backer would walk away, shak ing Ids head in a foreboding manner. And then one day Mr. Latimer died very suddenly. "It was only a week or two before," said Mr. Raiuey in telling the story, "that Charley met me and told me for the fortieth time, more or less, that my well was no good, and, by Jove, the very clay he died the flow suddenly stopped! Yes, sir, stopped right short on the (lay that Charley died! Con found It If I don't believe that he wont straight down and turned It off! Yes, sir, turned it off!"— Cleveland Plain Dealer.

I A woman recently advertised her ; sendees for "cheering the nervous and lonesome." There art? few employ j inonts, new or old, to which women do not aspire, and this is clearly the latest idea in the development of evolutionary | womanhood. Moreover, it is perhaps not so absurd as it looks. There are ! times when we all want cheering up, when It is a great relief for some one | with a fund of high spirits to come in and entertain us with amusing anec dotes and reminiscences. But we are not all privileged to have a friend who is bright and cheerful and able to visit j us when we are worried and depressed or perchance recovering from a tedious illness. Therefore tliis woman comes forward, as she would no doubt soy, to "till a long felt want"—that of the pro fessional conversationalist, who will ' entertain lis when desired at so much per hour. A Snmmer Dining Room. The idea that a dining room should be treated In a somewhat heavy and subdued style dies bard. Thus it is that a white and yellow dining room is still something of a novelty. When its wlu | (lows give on a green and shady pros pect, the effect of the yellow dining room is really quite enchanting. An apartment of this description in a cot tage on Long Island has the walls pan eled to within seven inches of the tops of the doors, and all flic woodwork is painted ivory white. Above the panel ing is a stenciled frieze in shades of | daffodil, orange and chestnut. The rug is in shades of brown and I dull, soft blues. The tiled lireplaee is ! in yellowish brown. The chair seats i are of chestnut brown leather. The window hangings are of daffodil yellow i and white. IlnlrdrcßAlnK ami lint*. Now that "foreheads arc in," to quote the famous phrase of the hairdresser, the forward tilt of the hat Is iiuporn- I tive. Placed straight or on the back of the head, it gives a bare, bleak aspect I to the brow which is by no means be- I coming. Of course all fashionable wo j men have discarded a fringe, except j such slight tendrils of hair as serve to I soften the outline of the temples. The I fringe, indeed, which had become com j moil to all ranks and which was often ' to be seen touzled, ill combed and ! worse brushed, an unbecoming mat, I had sunk very low and was doomed to | extinction, but It must be remembered that a different style of hairdressing demands n different shape and poise of hat. A Woman Landscape Gardener. | Mrs. Annette Mct'rca lias been en gaged as landscape gardener by*the Rock Island (Ills.) Railroad company. She has commenced her work by boau j til'ylng the grounds about the stations. | This is not the first time Mrs. Mct'rca t has been engaged by the company for ! such work, and the Northwestern rall j road has likewise given her contracts. ! That.she has been successful is proved j by the fact that she has been engaged | to use her artistic powers in the neigli- I borhood of other stations. For some ! time Mrs. McCren bad charge of Lin coln park, Chicago, and made her infill , cnce felt in the artistic arrangement of | shrubbery.
