Judge:
For about a score of years Ai'.on B.
Parker has been withdrawn from the pub
lic view by virtue of bis own high respect
for the Judicial offices he has held. It has
been his theory and his practice has ac
corded with his theory that a Judge sit
ting upon the bench of the higher courts,
which must now and then deal with Ques
tions Involving political dominance, should
scrupulously avoid all active participation
In politics beyond the casting of his own
secret ballot at elections. He has stead
fastly obeyed this law which he laid down
lor himself. Ha has held that a m
chosen to serve la exalted Judicial office

dent seems well nigh certain, he holds
himself aloof from everything that might
aid that honorable ambition. He refuses
to be interviewed. He refuses even to
sea newspaper men, lest he compromise
that Judicial dignity the preservation of
which he regards as a supreme duty. By
way of explanation he said to an old and
tried friend the other day that be was
not a candidate for the presidency or for
any other political offlca
"I am chief Judge of the court of ap
peala of New Tork," ha added. "So long
as I hold that office It would be an In
decenoy for me to become an active can
didate for any other plaoe. I am not such
a canaiaate. I am aware that my name
Is Just now freely spoken of In connection
with the presidency. With that I have
nothing whatever to do. But as chief
Judge of the court of last resort in this
State it would In no wise become ma to do
any aot or to say any word which might
wy.u remotely seem t be a seeking of
such a nomination."
I have taken down this lrtt.miu tmm

mna most trusted friends, who permitted
me a few days ago to copy the exact
words as he repeated them.

the Judicial offlca During all that time he
has never ones taken part In any partisan
controversy and never once has he uttered
a sentence, in publlo or In private, that
could be construed as partisan.
And yet he Is a man of strong political
conviction Before he was elevated to
the bench he conducted a democratic state
campaign as chairman of the exeootlve
committee. He was on of Mr. Cleveland's
earliest and moat earnest supporters, one
of the strongeet of those men who saw In
Mr. Cleveland a candidate fit to repre

fit also as president to bring the country
back to It ancient moorings.' Yet when

declined. His political activity had had
no trace or lalnt of self-seeking In It.

nised that It was Governor Levi p. Morton,
a republican, who designated hem aa a
member of the appellate division of the
supreme court. Governor Morton did this
solely in recognition of the admirable ser
vice which Judge Parker had rendered ss
a supreme court Justloe and as a member
of the Second division of tha court of ap
peals, a post to which Governor HiU had
assigned him.
In 1897 he was the demecratlo candidate
for the offloe he now holds, that ef chief
Judge of the court of appeala It has been
erroneously stated In some newspapers
that the republicans nominated no candi
date against him and that he was unani
mously elected. Buoh was not the ease.
The republicans nominated a strong man
In opposition, but Judge Parker was elected
by more than SO.OOO plurality.
Judge Parker Is not eulte R years old.
In persen he Is a large man, six feet In
height, broad In the shoulders and un
usually musoular. Although he can-lea not
an ounce of what athletlo trainers oall
"superfluous flesh," his weight la nearly
200 pounds. It la 100 pounds of bone and
brawn and brains. He has not the slightest
tendency to obesity. His chest measure
exceeds his waist measure by many Inches,
but his arms and legs are large, and even
under the disguise of garments that fit him
well the muscles both abovs and below are
always In evldeno to every observant eye.
atarally Stalwart, j
They are not the muscles, however, of
the trained athlete, not muscles developed
at the expense of general health. I cannot
learn that he ever In his life practised In
a gymnasium or did any other of the things
that are commonly and very mistakenly
supposed to minister to a desirable muscu
larity. His stalwart form and superb
strength, were acquired, as those of the
great majority of Americano have boon,
by a life of farm work and out of door

That Is not all. Whenever opportunity
offers ho Joins his hired farmhands in
their work, and there Is not a man f wng
them who can accomplish more In a day
than ho can, or 'feel better at tho end of
the day.
Robust, eountry bred and thoroughly
healthy man that ho Is, ho finds his chief
delight In suoh hard work as this, and
when his court dutieo call him away from
his farms ho still preserves his health and
strength by long morning rides on horse
back. Ho rides good horses, too horses
that know how to go, and do not stand
much upon tho order of their going.
Conspicuous Featares. '
Judge Parker has a largo and , sym
metrical head, with a smooth forehead,
which haa aoqntred some additional domain
by tho recession of tho hah- above It That
hair la of copper oolor, fine and soft, as
tho hair of intellectual men Is apt to be.
On his face bo wears only a mustache,
light In color and therefore less aggressive
upon attention than It would bo If its hue
were dark. His features are large, well
moulded and strong.
Tho chin cspeolallly Is pronounoed, and It
Is suggestive of great determination, while
tho gentle half smile that plays around
tho lips above It gives ample warrant that
tho determination can never bo of a kind
hostile to anything except wrong.
Tho complexion la florid, but Its ruddi
ness suggests only good health, temperate
habits and much exposure to tho sun and
tho wind.
Tho Indications of tho head and face are
fully confirmed by what wo know of the
man. Ho Is calm, self-possessed and cool
headed. His temperament la In absolute
contrast with that of Mr. Roosevelt He
does nothing and says nothing upon Im
pulse. He does everything and aays every
thing upon conviction and as the result
of a carefully thought out Judgment To
employ an expressive southern figure of
speeoh, "ho never goes off at half-cock.M
Both his actions and his words are care

TRADING STAMPS ABSOLUTELY FREE
to me was, In substance, and as nearly as
I can recall his words, this:
"Judge Parker Is possessed of all those
qualities of mind, character and tempera
ment which were regarded in tho early
days of tho republic as essential to one
who might be thought of for tho presi
dential place. He haa a high and unsul
lied moral character, of course. Ho has an
upright and relentlessly honest mind, it
would never occur to him aa the execu
tive chief of the nation to usurp the func
tions of tho legislative branch of tho gov
ernment and by executive order enact
laws which congress bad refused to enact
"Ho has a personal dignity, too, which
would utterly and absolutely forbid him
while president to conduct a campaign for
convention delegates by way of securing
his own renomlnatlon by his party or his
own re-election by tho people. Ho would
scorn such activities, as Jefferson, Madi
son and Monroe scorned them. x
"Indeed, his nomination. If Jt shall bo
made, will bo a pronounced return to the
democratla traditions of tho Jeffersonlan
time. It win also Involve tho restoration
of the democratlo parry to sanity and
soberness after that debauch of anarchism
for which Mr. Bryan and his populists
compelled it unwittingly to stand sponsor.
It will bring back to the party which beat
and most truly represents the ideas and
Impulses and aspirations of the American
people all that multitude of voters who
reluctantly voted against It In tho two
latest presidential elections hecauso tho
machinery of the party organization had
been seised upon by populists and an
archists and a csndldato had been nomi
nated whose election would have spelled
chaos and black night for tho country.
Extraordinary Executive Ability,
''Another thing," added this eminent
Judge, "Judge Parker has a truly extraor
dinary executive ability. He knows how
to do things and how to get things done.
I have familiar and friendly acquaintance,
of course, with every member of tho court
of last resort, over which ho presides. Ono
and all of them testify that nsver be
fore In the history of that court was busi
ness so well conducted. Ho holds tho law
yers strictly to their buslnesa When tho
court renders a decision ho permits no
lawyer to argue the matter adjudicated.
"Ho allows no waste of time. He is al
ways tho first Judge present on the bench,
and he remains always until tho court
edjourna In tho meanwhile he Insists
that business shall go on with no delays
and no Interruption. Ho makes this In
sistence with a suavity sod grsclousneas
of voice and manner which leave no possi
ble ground of complaint on the part of any
lawyer, indeed; I have never ' known a

lawyer practicing In the court of appeals
who was not ready to say that Judge
Parker was altogether the pleasantest pre
siding Judge that any honest lawyer could
confront in a court"
Judge Parker's homo life is like that of
the great majority of clean minded, pure
hearted Americans. He has a mother
whom ho reveres, a wife whom he loves as
he did In the days of their courtship, some
grown up children, who rejoice to be with
him when they can, and some little grand
children who regard htm as "good fun"
when be gets an opportunity to frollo with
them. This he does riotously.
Ho Is a hearty eater 'of wholesome food,
as a man must be who would maintain
such a physique as his in health and vigor.
But his tastes are simple, wholesome and
temperate. I have many times sat with him
throughout an evening In a club room,
where everybody else, or nearly everybody,
was freely Indulging In wine or spirits,
while he, without that oetentatlous refusal
of proffered hospitality which might have
seemed a Pharisaical rebuke, quietly oon
tented himself with oarbonlo water or
something else of that Innocent kind.
While he haa abstained, as has been said,
from all participation in partisan wrangles
since his elevation to the bench. Judge
Parker is a thorough paced democrat. He
Is a firm believer In the principles of human
liberty, equal rights and equal laws for all
men which Jefferson and a long line of
democratlo otatesmen of the golden age
advocated. He was a special friend of
Samuel J. Tilde n, of Grover Cleveland and
Of Daniel Manning.
He is a typical American dtlxen, upright,
clean. Industrious, healthy, dignified, gently
disposed, resolute for right, patriotic, mod
est and In no conceivable way self-seeking.
Ho believes In Jaw, In the constitution, in
the equality of men, In personal liberty,
in local self-government In brief, hi all
those principles that have created this re
publics of ours and made it great

but the men capable of designing such
an attraction are almost unobtainable."
Tho managing director of a printing
firm which probably produoea the majority
of hand bills and circulars In London said:
"It is quite futile in these days to at
tempt to obtain business ' by circulars.
People are not only tired of them, but re
gard them as such a nuisance that im
mediately they are dropped Into the letter
box or flung into the hall, where thoy are
picked up by a servant and transferred
to the dust bin.
"In some districts, notably tho West End,
hand' bills have become such an affliction
that, the police have been appealed to.
"Tiien, again, householders are constantly
complaining of newly cleaned steps being
soiled by the deliveries of hand bills, of tho
constant Injury of bells, and the not In
frequent disappearance of trifles from tho
halls. In such trying circumstances how
can the advertisers expect custom to fol
low? "But tha hand bill as an advertising me
dium is doomed. There has lately been a
noticeable fulling off In tho orders, and I,
as much a victim of the nuisance as anyl
body, do not deplore tho fact" Chlpago
