Hunt, now a judge of the court of customs appeals, formerly United States district judge of the district of Montana, term of three years. John Emmet Carland of South Da- kota is to be judge of the new court of commerce for a term of two years. This is a change from the original slate, Arthur C. Denison, United States district judge for the Western district of Michigan, having first been selected for this place. It was explained that the promotion of Judge Denison to the commerce court would have given Michigan three circuit judges, more than the presi- dent thought should come from one state. Accordingly, the president de- cided to name Judge Carland. He was recommended for the nomination by the South Dakota delegation. | Mack Gets Short Term. + Julian W. Mack, now judge in the appellate circuit court of the First Ilinois district, term of one year: To be members of the interstate commerce commission: . B. H. Meyer of Wisconsin and C.-C.

Cockrell of Missouri. elect its new chairman. The members of the commission who remain are Messrs. Clark, Harlan, Clements, Lane and Prouty. The commerce-court is a court creat- ed in the amendment to the interstate commerce act passed in June last by this congress. The law provides for thé appoint- ment of five additional circuit judges by the president, who are to consti- tute the court, and no two or whom shall. be appointed from the same ju- dicial circuit. The judges so appoint- ed are to serve on the commerce court and after being relieved from that service are to be assigned to work on the circuits as circuit judges. i New Chief Justice Confirmed. Washingion, Dec. 13.—Edward D. ‘White of Louisiana, associate justice ©of the supreme court, was confirmed by the senate to be chief justice of the court. Confirmation of the two newly appointed associate justices will follow later. The quick confirmation of Mr Justice White is due to the fact that the senate already had passed upon his qualifications. ZELAYA LONGS FOR HOME Exiled Former Dictator of Nicaragua Is Pining in Belgium. New York, Dec. 13.—General Jose E. Zelaya, deposed president of Nica rague and for nearly twenty years the despot of his country, is not happy in his exile in Belgium, according to his son Alphonse, who is a student at Co- lumbia university. Though Zalaya has $15,000,000—all safely invested out- side his own country—he has written to his son that he wants to return to Nicaragua to finish his life in peace among his own people. The letters written by General Ze- laya to his son picture the former dictator as broken down in health, diesatisfied with his surroundings and with only ambition to return to Nica- ragua to live in peace. “I have never had a moment’s peace since I left my dear native land,” he writes. Seeks Russian Investments. St. Petersburg, Dec. 13.—John Hays Hammond, the American mining engi- mneer and promoter, has arrived here. He comes in the interest of a financial group to investigate the possibilities for the investment of American capi; tal in Russia. The proposals include the construction of grain elevators, development of irrigation, lighting, street car service and the building of sewers. NCCCEATIV/IE DACQE The commission " will The Old Fashioned Woman. “What caused your sudden blowing ! in?" asked a veteran iu Shade Land of | a woman who just arrived. The wom- an gave a sigh that blew over a tomb- stone as she rveplied: *1 am an old fashioned womaun, and I did my work in a kitchen with a six hole range. a big sink. three long tables, two pan- tries and a dishpan large enough’ to wash a turkey in. Two days ago I went to visit my daughter in ‘a big city and found, her cooking for: her family in a chafing dish. doing her dishes in a washbowl and keeping themstored in the lower part of the washstand. When I saw her get the bread out of a big bowl on the piano called a jardiniere and reach for the butter out of the window 1 felt a cold chill come over me, and when she made soup by opening a tin can and pouring out a mess to which she add- ed water from the wash pitcher I knew no more.”” Then the old-fash- ioned woman gave such a sniff of dis- | gust it blew all the shades over into the hext county.—Atchison Globe. Trapped. The man was neither neatly nor well dressed. He was plainly a tramp, beg- ging. and had just turned away from one passerby when he saw a young man walking briskly toward ' him. “Please, mister,” said the tramp, “‘cap !

A Master Tactician, “Why,” expostulated the lady in the brown dress when the artist who had painted a portrait of her little daugh- ter said the price of the picture was $100,, “you charged Mrs. Crawford only $68 for the picture you painted of her Lucy.” “I am aware of that fact, my dear madam.” the suave and politi¢ artist hastened to explain. “but you must consider the great difference in ‘the costs of the paints used for the hair of the two children. The scant. drab | colored hair of the Crawford child re- quired just a touch of the cheapest kind of pigment, but the wonderfully | beautiful and luxuriant’ curls of your lovely daughter required a large quan- ; tity of the hest paints on the market.” | Then ‘the lady in the brown dress | smiled. took out her purse and begged the artist’s pardon for having spoken [ rudely to him.—Chicago News. i The Battle of Chalons.
