Washington. Sept. 2s.-Yesterday was
Henry Pickneys busy day. Henry is one
OF President Roosevelts messengers and
he was told off early TO look after Master
Kermit Roosevelt. aged eight. and Miss
Ethel Roosevelt. aged ten, while the mis-
tress OF the White House was looking

here no more until tomorrow"
Plnckney was called in by Mrs. Roose-
welt after breakfast and the children
were given INTO his charge.

Ethel
she's going 10 look over the White
House" Pinckney replied.
so are We Kermit announced.
STARTED AN INDEPENDENT TOUR.
Thcreupon an independent tour of In
~estigation was organized. The children
wcnt into every nook and Granny OF the
home OF the president from top TO bot

Gun playing tag in the subbasement They
wanted TO so upon the roof. but Pinck-
hey vetoed that.
For the first time I'm five years the
laughter Of children was heard in the
out-of- f-theway places in the big white
pile The cooks end servants lined up 20
receive the two children. and the attend
ants in the lobby chuckIed all day from
sheer 10y OF having some little ones to
bother them.
Kermit was much taken on his arrival
with the electric elevator which runs TO
the presidents private apartments. AS

RUSH FOR THEIR BICYCLES.
The smooth roads and the asphalt
walks I'm the White House grounds made
the children think OF bicycles. and with
Pinckney trying to keep up with them
they rushed down to the basement and
got out their Oyster Bay machines.
A critical inspection proved that while
these bicycles were good enough for Oys-
ter Bay they are hardly good enough for
the White House. so there was a flank
movement on Mrs. Roosevelt with re-
quest for two new wheels.
ASK your father" said Mrs. Roosevelt,
diplomatically
Whereupon the president OF the United
states was stormed by one small boy and
one small girl and bombarded with

went 10 a bicycle store and bought two
fine new wheels. They waited impati tientlv

Kermit IL sturdy rider, but Ethel can
do tricks. she made some OF the people

Then Pinckney got a wheel and all three
rode out on the asphalt streets when
they came back Pinckncy showed signs
OF fatigue, but the youngsters were as
fresh as daisies.

The Muskogee Times says Mr..

studio win be torn down in a few days.
THIS calls to the mind of an old resi-
dent here who was a friend OF the
james and Younger boys that Jesse
James slept in the baymow Of that
barn one day.
lt was soon after the time that Jesse
James held up the ticket seller at the
Kansas City fair and secured $4,000.
70 was supposed that the Youngers
were with him on that hot September
day At amy rate four days after.
wards a horseman called on the Times
Informant and stated that Jesse james
would be here early next morning.
That he left him that morning over
near Coweta. He expected to reach
Muskogee next morning and wanted
place TO sleep during the day
James arrived next morning early
so company with the two Younger
boys. They remained in the haymow
all day unknown to any one save their
friends. That night they saddled their
horses and reached Younger's bend
on the South Canadian In safety
It would have been impossible for
James to have got through safely on
the cars, rs every train was watched
