PIQTURE AND SPORTING SECTIONS. GOVERNOR HUGHES FOR SUPREME COURT; WALKS AND TALKS. BY JULIUS CHAMBERS HORACE K. WHITE STATE'S CHIEF EXECUTIVE of the Cities Committee. He was first talked of as a possible candidate for I RLMSH WORK OH FLORIDA I FOR LAUNCHING DAY 1' 'I Tmr, Aeison muruer ujhi taiuo I a sudden conclusion yesterday afternoon, when juage ruuinu directed the Jury at Riverhead thn ni-iaoner.

Schwartz. The theory of the defense that the killing was done by burglars would appear, in light of the verdict, to have plausibility. The experience has been a severe one for young Schwartz. Ho has been In prison more than seven months, and has had to stand trial for his life. I refer to this case In order to point its moral rather than to comment upon the legal Injustice that appears to have been done to the late prisoner.

It contains a distinct warning. Young men never should select boarding places In small families where there Is a pretty wife. This may be laid down as a dictum, mucn in tne same way Tony Weller advised his son Sam to "be ware of vldders." Not long ago, I spoke of the widows of uncertain ages who fre quent boarding houses, if not for the pur pose, at least with the result of securing young husbands who will comfort them in their declining years and, incidentally, provide them with homes. Fathers who send their sons from the parental roof "to carve out their own destinies," should inspect the houses In which their boys are domiciled; otherwise, the youngsters are liable to get Into the clutches of middle-aged women who, at least, will help them to spend their hard-earned money and may persuade them Into Ill-mated marriages. But, equally foolish is the young man who takes a room Jn a friend's home, no matter how high his sense of honor, or great his longing for "the comforts of home." These so-called "comforts" are supposed to be most nearly attained In a private family.

He never can be sure that the husband will continue to believe in blm. If that person be of a Jealous nature, he Is likely to become Intolerable, even though he doesn't believe his domestic relations Imperiled. Some husbands need only a few glasses of liquor to develop the "green-eyed monster." A foolish woman may do much to discredit the Judgment of the Suffolk County, court by her declaration that she Intends to marry Schwartz, who was a farm hand and boarder in her house. By1 such act, she will raise a presumption in many minds that the theory of the prosecution, set up at the trial, had at least some small basis of fact. In order not to- discriminate against husbands, It can be said with equal frankness that a young woman who does not covet domestic complications will do well to avoid taking up her abode in a family consisting only of man and wife.

If she be younger, handsomer, and dress with more taste than the wife, the slightest smilo of friendliness toward the or. a casual meeting with him on the may-raise the genii of Jealousy in the wife's mind and cause an exceedingly disagreeable scene. Though the girl boarder be chaste as ice, she will encounter calumny. Sewing circles, at which good women meet to make clothes for the Door, have furnished material for the beginnings of much family uuhanmnnM of thin nnrt rt was said in the daya of our grandmothers yesterday by the President, immediately after the receipt of an acceptance of his offer frpm the governor. Mr.

Hughes will be promptly confirmed, but will not relinquish his present office until October. The court meets for the fall and winter term on October 10. This arrangement has the full approval of President Taft, and vas a material factor in Governor Hughes' acceptance of the place tendered him by the President last Friday. Governor Hughes' nomination was received at the Senate late In the afternoon, and was referred to the Committee on the Judiciary. There is no doubt that a favorable report will be made at an early date and that confirmation will follow soon thereafter.

Lieutenant Governor Horace K. White, who will succeed to the governorship for the latter part of Governor Hughes' term, Is the son of Horace K. White and a nephew of Andrew D. White, once president of Cornell University and afterward ambassador to Germany. Mr.

White's family went to Syracuse when he was 4 years old, and there he prepared for col-lego, entering Cornell, where ho was graduated with honors In 1887. He took prizes in oratory In both bis Junior and senior years. At the ago of 21 Mr. White took an active Interest in politics, and In 1895 be was elected state senator, being the youngest man In the Senate. He was ro-elected In 1898, 1900.

1902, 1904 ond 1906, each time by a large majority. While In the Senate Mr. White served on several Important committees, and was chairman Battleship Florida Stern View. The Prow of Uncle Sam's New Dreadnought. OVERNOR CHARLES E.

ITS COLLAPSE wMfSi that event by the mechanics of the navy Yard. The speakers on that occasion will be President Taft.

Secretary of the Navy Meyer, Governor Hughes, Mayor Gaynor, Congressmen Calder and Fitzgerald, Admiral Leutz, commandant of the Brooklyn Navy Yard; Captain William J. Baxter, U. S. head of the hull division of the navv yard, and Captain William M. Parks, U.

S. head of the machinery division of the navy yard. The Florida will be the heaviest warship that has ever been launched in the United States. By May 12, the date set for the ceremony, the Florida will be 68 per cont. completed and will weigh 9,000 tons, which la 1,000 tons heavier than her sister ship, the Utah, when she was launched on December 23, 1909, at Camden, N.

J. Naval Constructor William J-Baxter, who has charge of the construction of the Florida, said that the increase In weight was due to the fact that the battleship would have four propellers, with shafting, and twelve water-tube bollera Installed before the launching, instead of after the vessel is afloat, which Is the usual custom. This extra weight, Mr. Baxter points out, will increase the risk of launching such a large battleship, and special precautions will have to be taken to prevent any accident to mar what is expected to be one of the most notaOle ceremonies in the history of the United States Navy. The battleship fleet will arrive at the navy yard on May 1, and the bands rfom the ships, with 6,000 bluejackets and marines, with all the senior officers, will take part in the ceremonies.

The actual time of the launching of the Florida will be between 10:46 and 11 o'clock. The chocks which hold the huge battleship on the stocks will be carefully removed during the morning, so that when Constructor Baxter gives the word of command, 'Saw off!" the shipwrights will I he would attend the launching of tne Dattiesnip norma at tne Brooklyn Navy Yard on May 12, and also that he would attend the dinner to be given in honor, ot Naval Constructor Baxter. BANK SHORED NATIONAL HONOR SOCIETY ESTABLISHES LOCAL CHAPTER that one quilting bee developed more domestic trouble In a small community than an outbreak of measles in the distrlo school. The larger the boarding house, the greater the safety. Tr To accept a home with friends places one under obligations, no matter if a higher rate be paid than would be asked elsewhere.

The only wayto keep boarders lg to make a business of it. The promise to "become one of the family" Is generally offset by limitations of the kitchen or an absence of heat on days wtien most needed. People in this world never get anything for nothing least of all can this be said of boarders, whether "star" tenants or "hangers on!" The above remarks are Intended as thoroughly wholesome, practical advice that should be taken to heart by every young man and woman who works and has to find a home in the house of other people. Entirely "Innocent merriment" may make one or other co-respondent In a divorce case. If a husband wants to get rid ot a wife or a wife of a husband, nothing is easier than to trump up a charge that will put a stigma upon an Innocent but indiscrete young man op young woman.

Not a reader of this column, perhaps, but can recall an Instance of this sort of complication from his or her observation. Every regular reader of the newspapers will remember the case of a charming and successful actress, against whose character there never had been a breath of reproach, who was joined with a long list of other women In a recent divorce trial. When the lady was taking hep luncheon at a reputable restaurant, the defendant happened to enter, and seeing the actress, with whom he was very slightly acquainted, stopped long enough to speak. Detectives reported the meeting. The publicity caused the lady so much anguish that she sickened and died.

She did not belong to the comparatively small class ot soubrettes who find notoriety of any sort unobjectionable. Although the lady's name was subsequently expunged, the Injury had been done. This is a censorious world. Young men who are unattached and think themselves "good fellows" among the families of their married friends should give ear to this subject. They should remember that the verdict of the world Is against them whenever such a charge is made.

Injury to young women unjustly accused of "breaking up families" may be more lasting, but young men are confronted by greater difficulties in extricating themselves. They are presumed to be guilty. The lawyer for the plaintiff will surely revamp the old cry of "the hunter and the hunted." In his eloquence he will hark back to the days when women were "acquired" by blows upon their heads or carried oft by bold cavaliers. Such is one of the penalties of being a man! Have a care, therefore, youngsters, unless you wish to begin your careers with a rogue's brand upon your name. What a neat and proper thing to erect a tablet in Sage Chapel, Cornell University, to the memory of Ross Gilmore Marvin, a professor In that institution, who lost his life in the last Peary expedition to the North Pole.

His death was the saddest incident connected with the exploit. Commander Peary spoke with deep emotion when he described the monument erected to the memory of the young man, "the most northerly monu ment in this world." Money for the tablet was raised amonf the students of the university. A NEW. PRESIDENT. Robert J.

MacFarland. Robert J. MacFarland, former presi dent of the Manufacturers Club, a promi nent business man and an active member of and worker In tlie Thompklns Avgnue Congregational Church, was unanimously elected president of the large and Influential Congregational Club of Brooklyn. He made a neat speech In accenting ih office. lieutenant governor In 1900.

In lsus, when Governor Hughes was re-elected, Mr. White was elected lieutenant governor. Governor Hughes. money for the purpose will be subscribed in the near future, but will not need to be paid in until the first part of September. The pastor, the Rev.

Dr. Curtis Lee Laws, presented the matter of the improvements, on behalf of the trustees, at the prayer meeting a -week ago, and It waB received with marked approval. The suggestion has been made that memorial windows be placed In the church by those who have lost relatives. There is only one window of this- kind now In the church that to the Rev. Robert B.

There was a delay of almost fifteen minutes. TWENTY-FIVE YEARS A PASTOR Br. Carson Has Been for a Quarter of a Century With the Central Presbyterian Church. Twenty-five years a pastor is the reo-ord the Rev.

Dr. John F. Carson, pastor of tho. Central Presbyterian Church, Marcy and Jefferson avenues, has made for himself In Brooklyn. He has had many calls to leave the church which he has so long and faithfully served, but he has always been convinced that his work was not done In Brooklyn.

The church which he first served as pastor was the Reformed Presbyterian Church at Tompkins avenue and Wllloughby street, which was admitted to tho Presbytery of Brooklyn with Dr. Carson about twelve years ago, so that Central Church Is really the same organization, for there has never been a reorganiza tion and Dr. Carson has been Its pastor for twenty-five years. A committee Is at work with Mr. Ecker as chairman, to formulate plans for the church to recognize by a celebra tion the long pastorate of Dr.

Carson, and on May 20 there will be a churchh reception, this marking the date in 1885 when he began his work among the people. Dr. Carson will preach his anniversary Bermon on Sunday morning. May 22. Tho church has had great growth under his administration, and Its membership Is now considerably over 2,000.
