When an unfortunate visitor «commented on .this fact:to Mr. Jones, the postmaster, Mr. Jones nodded. “Bill : Perking—that's" our “sheriff— complained of that no longer ago than last week,” sald he, according to the Philadelphia . Ledger. “You see, It took him more'n a week to arrest Frank -because Frank got wind that he was wanted on a little matter of sellin’ ‘moonshine, and he went on a round of visits amongst his relatives, aunts, nephews-in-law and I don’t know shat all, and it wasn’t till he had had-his fill and went back home to his wife ‘that Bill- could make the arrest without seenting to kind of butt in, as you might say, and spoil the reynions.” “I should think he would make a strange sort of sheriff,” said the vis- itor, “waiting all the time for sentl- _mental reasons and then arresting a sman when -he ‘went home, - just be- eause his wife wasn't ‘a relation!” Whereupon the postmaster drew himself up and assumed a remote ex- pression. . “That’s as you look at it,” he said in a chilly tone. “I may be a bit prejudiced in Bill's favor, as he mar- rled any.

Humphreys of the United States weather bureau at Washington. The densest fog off Newfoundland banks contains some 20,000 - droplets in a cubic inch, Doctor Wells and Doctor Thuras of the bureau of standards found. To get one gulp of water emough fog to fill a space 3 by 5 by 100-feet would have to be condensed. In a fog that size there are ©0,000,000,000,000 particles of water. “It would take about a halt hour to count an inch of fog particles,” says Doctor Humphreys. Placed side by side, 2,500 to 3,000 drop- lets would be necded to fill that Jength.” The droplets in a cloud have been found to.be, on the average, twlc.’ the size of a fog droplet.

The Day’s News Charles F- Murphy, who ¢ today :* rounds out a career of twenty years as, Jeader of the Tammany Hall or- ganization in New York, is a typical product of New York city politics, beginning as a ward henchman and rising step by step to the top of the ladder. His career as a political boss has been singularly successful in some ways, unsuccessful in others. No previous boss of Tammany ever succeeded in becoming State leader- Murphy won that title in 1910 when he forced the nomination of Dix for the governorship on.the Democratic State convention. But, on the other hand, Murphy held his leadership for many years before he succeeded in gairing full control of -the polities of :the city by electing 2 mayor ‘who would be subservient to his will.
