a mad gallop across the mesa to the Coun-
try Club. Perhaps the West thought that
Governor Roosevelt could not ride. Per-
haps his escort Of trained soldiers and cow
men thought they could outride him. The
way was not that over a ballroom floor.
1t was up hill and down hill. through
dust and rock. into the sage brush, down
upon shale. over arroyos. right 10 the front
OF the wall OF the Uintah range.
The men riding with the Governor gave
yell. They pushed their horses TO not only
reach. but TO pass him. II was a mad
scramble, where a stumble or the pitch Of
a careless horse might break a leg or end
life- The Governor turned his head and
saw the intention of his escort to pass him
and lead. He did not hesitate. He came
up in his saddle just bit to give his horse
more freedom. He clung to the reins and
set his teeth. His beast responded. 1t
took the rough and soft spots with the
dash of cavalry horse. 1t distended its
nostrils and threw UP its head as If it en-
joyed the wild ride as much as its rider.
Behind were the hurrying hoofs Of the
pursuers. One horse stumbled. The rider
pitched clear over its head and turned a
complete somersault. So did the horse.
Both came to their feet at the same in
slant. The rider was on again. One stir
rup was lost in the fall, but he took up
the rate again as If nothing had hap
pened.
Still the Governor led. He was not
passed at any time. The foam rose on his
horses flank and he reined in to give HIM
new wind. but he let no man of Utah ps
him.
He returned to the Alta Club his eyes
sparkling. his face full of color, laugh on
his face and in his voice.
"By George" said he, that was a ride
for ones life. That did me a world of
good"
As for the Utah batterymen and the cow
men and all the members Of the escort they
could not say too much for the Governors
qualities as an equestrian. They gave him
the palm for trough riding" They con-
ceded that he could ride and that there
was not ''piece of pike that he was
AFRAID Of AS to the ride. the Governor
himself said:
Enthusiastic but misguided friends I'm
the past have made ii appear that 1 was
a broncho buster; that could handle any
horse living. That is not true. AS COM
pared with an Eastern man L can ride and
ride better. But in comparison with West
ern men am what you would call mid
ding fair rider. That is, i can take care
of myself ami not disgrace any other
members of the patty"

SHENANDOAH, Pa, Sept 22.-Witb the

borough assumed its normal condition and
the anticipated resumption OF violence on
the part of the miners did not occur. II
might have been the presence OF the SOL

but many of the residents believe the lack
Of riotous scenes was due 10 the fact that
all the collieries here were closed. Fear

would result in possible bloodshed. Sheriff
Toole last night requested the mine own

WASHINGTON. Sept. 22.-The State De-

the notes addressed by it to the govern

answer to inquiries from them as to the
attitude of the United States towards vari-
Gus phases of the Chinese problem. The
forecasts of these notes made in the press
appear 10 have been accurate. for. although
nowhere in the text is reference made TO
the withdrawal of United States troops
from China, the official statement issued by
the Navy Department in advance of the
publication OF the notes bears out the pre-
diction that the government finally has de-
eided on such material reduction of Its
military forces as viii amount 70 with

sequent attempt at territorial aggression
on the part OF any powers who already
have declared themselves as willing TO
abide by the expressed determination Of the
United States TO refrain from seizing upon
Chinese territory, then the United States
is to lose no right or privilege which IL
now enjoys by such action The Navy De-
partment's statement follows:

when circumstances so warrant, the land

The Russian and Chinese answers being in
the form of diplomatic memoranda, are
short to a degree rarely seen in diplo-
matte exchanges. But in both cases, being
completely responsive and favorable to the
inquirer, they will escape criticism on that
score The answer to the German note is
carefully phrased so as TO soften the un-
qualified refusal of the United States gov

Chinese ringleaders a condition precedent
to negotiations. Also it is noted that in the
