Chambers to be judges of the oity court here in succession to Judge Bamuel E, Hoyt and Jacob , Caplan brings to an end a great deal of un- certainty as to the occupants of the bench for the next two years, It was understood in political circles that the governor was opposed to continuing Judges Hoyt and Caplan in ofce hecause they were favored by Col. I. M, Uliman and the repub- lican organization, Other candidates were Sheridan Whitaker, the present city attorney, and Eugene Farley, the assistant prosecutor, The governor was known to have expressed his ob- jection to Mr, Farley but it had been thought that Mr. Whitaker would be one of the appointees, An incident in the prolonged dis- cussion of various candidacies came when the governor some weeks since announced that he was withholding the making of the appointments until the return from Florida of former Lieut. Governor Dennis A. Blakeslee who s understood to have candidates In opposition to those favored by Col. Ullman and of former Governor Rol- lin 8, Woodruff who also was said to have had names he desired to present. Both returned from the south but still the nominations were not made, The names of Mr, Watrous and Mr. Chambers were mentioned about a fortnight ago and Mr, Chambers’ name also was mentioned with other names, It is understood that a very large number of men called upon the governor in behalf of candidates and in one interview the governor stated that no names had been presented of men of the ‘‘calibre’” he desired to appoint to the court. Under the law these appointments had to be made not later than May 1. YOUNG DAUGHERTY ILL Is Not Drug Addi<. or Crazy, But is to be Committed to Sanitarium For Treatment.

SMOKE 86 CIGARS EACH IN PENNSYLYANIA TEST Seven State College Students Try Out Quality of Tobacco Grown on Experiment Farms. State College, Pa., April 26.—Seven men at the State college started yes- Iterday the task of smoking 36 cigars each as a test of quality for tobacco raised on the college tobacco experi- ment farms located in Lancaster and Clinton counties. Each tester is supplied with a score card, where he notes the burning quality, aroma, flavor and character of ash on four sample cigars of nine different varieties. Five of the sam- ples are cigars made from leaf to- bacco grown under various fertilizer treatments and the remaining four are from stock that the college experi- ment station has developed through improved breeding. There is no time limit on the test, which may take sev- | eral weeks to complete. | One sample is sald to contain less than half the nicotine content of the average cigar, belng made from a college - developed = strain through cross-breeding to cut down the nico- tine percentage. The average ' cigar contains 3 per cent or more of nico- tine, but the new variety has less than 2 per cent. College breeding experi- ments have evolved a 10 per cent nico- tine content tobaceo, which one would hardly desire to smoke, but it will prove invaluable as an insecticide. | STUDENT MARRIAGES ARE NOW BARRED AT SYRACUSE University is Seeking Way to Put a Stop to Matrimonial Mania Here, Syracuse, N. Y., April 26.—Chan- cellor Flint of Syracuse university put an official ban on student marriages today. “Marriage of any student enrolled in Syracuse university henceforth will be accepted as withdrawal from the university,” said a statement issued by the chancellor to the student body. “Marriage will automatically cancel a student’s enroliment and all of his or her connections with the univer. sity.” The ban was issued, the chancellor said, “ in keeping with similar moves taken by other leading universities,” The university administration, it be- came known, had been considering the marked prevalence of undergrad- uate marriages in an effort to arrive at a satisfactory and efficient method to curb the “matrimonial mania” that has been sweeping over American in- stitutions of learning since the war. At a meeting of the deans of the various colleges.of Syracuse university the general opinion was that student jmarriages were disrupting to aca- demlic enterprise and achievement, that students needed a stern regula- | tion to make them appreciate the serlousness of marriage and that a firm and fast rule against undergrad- vate matrimony was the only solu- tion. Scholarship and matrimony do not mix in the case of undergraduates, ac- cording to Vice-Chancellor William P. Graham, Students contemplating matrimony while in college had nothing to say AND GAME LAWS CAUSE MUCH DEBATING Arguments Brought Forth Show That Proposed Bill Would Kill offt Canaries and Pets Hartford, April 26—Numerous amendments were offered today to the codification of the fish and game laws the one causing the most debate be- ing one by Mr, Bisisky, of Enficld to remove the bill the prohibition against allens being given hunting licenses or being allowed to carry firearms.

Mr, Bisisky used an fillustration, Ameri- cans hunting In England and vice- versn, House Leader Buckley said it was a new doctrine that allens had rights under the constitution. The amendment was lost by a viva voce vote, Mr, Fenton of Windham asked if now the bill prevented a resident alien farmer from taking his gun and going out to kill a cow. He was told it did, and Mr. Buckley sald there was an- other bill coming out of the judiclary committee to prohibit 'that farmer from having a gun or a revolver in his possession, Mr. House, house chairman of the fish and game committee offered many amendments. He eaid the com- mittee had discovered that the. bill legislated canaries and other pet birds in homes out of existence. He also | offered an amendment allowing the | killing of trapped anlmals on Sunday, These amendments were adopted and the bill was killed.
