Meets With Cabinets Approval
No Immediate Establish

Government.
LABOR LEADER SENTENCED
Reese, of United Mine Workers,
Gets Sentenced for Con-
tempt of Court

Washington, Nov. 2S-The presi-
dents annual message is practically
completed and ready for transmission
to congress next week. The message
is unusually long on account of the
numerous important topics discussed.
AS the death of the wee president
makes it certain the senate will ad-
journ Immediately when it assemblies
Monday out of respect to his mem
ory, it is not unlikely that the mes
sage will be withheld until Tuesday.
Washington, Nov. 2S-The cabinet
meeting today was devoted almost ex
clusively TO the consideration of the
presidents message. 1t met with
general approval. Several members
expressed the opinion that it was an
unusually strong and able document.
Secretary Root said in answer to a
question that there was no immediate
intention of establishing civil gov
ernment in Cuba. The alleged TO
mentations now going on in Cuba
against the establishment of a civil
government may result in allowing
the present military government to
continue longer than it otherwise
would. The administration does not
seek to force upon the Cubans a civil
government that would be offensive
to a majority of the inhabitants.

LOCAL MEN SATISFIED.
Corp. Tanner is Not Supported BY
Members of Post 10 in His Fight
Against Evans.

III spite of the announcement that Corp.
Tanner proposes to make it decidedly
warm for Pension Commissioner Evans
at the Grand Army national encampment
at Philadelphia next week, Worcester
Grand Army men believe the commissioner
will be safe after the attack is over and
the smoke of battle clears.
1t is the prevailing opinion that the en-
campment will be asked to pass resolu-
lions framed by Tanner and seeking the
removal of Evans, but members of Post
10 believe they will come to naught. M. A.
Maynard, delegate from Post 10 to the ma
tional encampment, refuses to discuss the
movement. and Will form no opinion pend
ing the submission of the report Of the in
vestigating committee. Commander r. B.
Edwards believes that the agitation which
will be raised wilfamount to little or moth
ing, and is opposed to any change.
Gen. Charles w. Wood says he believes
Evans is not exactly qualified for the po-
sition of commissioner, but thinks the
present agitation or anything that may be
done at the encampment at Philadelphia
will cause no change in the situation
From Indications, the local post wifi take
no part in the discussion, although the
action of Corp. Tanner will stir up con-
siderable ripple in Grand Army circles.

The principles of casting the ancient

CURED. The saucer-shaped missile is
clutched in the palm Of the right hand
The palm Of the hand is downward and
the fingers are clasped around the bot
tom of the discus. The arm is then
outstretched, and the athlete poses ex-
actly the same as in throwing the ham
mer.
AS in the old style of hammer throw
ing, a complete turn of the body is
made before the missile leaves the
hand. 1t is delivered much the same
as in scaling card. The best results
are obtained by scaling the discus as
straight before you as possible.
