Albany. Sept. 21.-Roosevelt stories
are now in order. Here is a true one:
The new President believes heartily
in the old Biblical admonition that to
spare the rod is to spoil the child. The
Roosevelt children have all been
spanked-except during their babyhood
and very soundly. too.
Once when Ansley Wilcox of Buffalo,
in whose house Mr.. Roosevelt was
sworn in as President, was guest at
the state executive mansion, he sat
talking to the Governor shortly after
the Roosevelt children had been put to
bed. AS the Governor and his guest
talked and smoked, peal after peal of
Laughter was heard coming from the
nursery and there were sounds of a
general romping.
II annoyed the Governor. He went
out into the hail and called loudly to
the nurse to have the noise stopped.
He had hardly started the conversation
again before the sounds of cutting up
were as loud as before.
Excuse me-" Mr.. Roosevelt said grim
~ to his guest. He assembled the stairs
TO the nursery almost at a bound and
in a few moments there was heard the
laying on of hands" Whack! whack
Mr.. Wilcox heard and Immediately the
snickering stopped and snivelling took
it's place. Then the Governor return

REGAIN POSSESSION.
George Sipcs Sues Edwin Dun
kcrly to Get Back q
Little Farm.

George Sipes, of Canton township,
has commenced an action against Ed
win Dunkerly, to regain possession of a
little farm of 20 acres. The plaintiff
states In his petition that he owned
the land, but being indebted TO Dunk.
erly he made him a deed for the land
which was absolute on its face, but
which was in reality mortgage deed.
That there was an agreement between
them that Sipes was to pay off the in
debtedness at the rate of $40 month,
and did make some payments up until
and including June, and Dunkerly was
to deed the property back to him. The
defendant, however, has refused to
reconvey the land and refuses to &C.
cept any more payments.
The amount Of the Indebtedness is
$l,213.5o, and S,pes states that he has
rendered Dunkerly the full amount of
the money due him, which he refuses
to accept. He now asks the court to
compel the defendant to keep the
agreement and return him the land.
and comes into court ready to pay
the full amount due. Sterling &
Brauchef are attorneys for the plain
tiff.

Milwaukee Lodge Men
So Regard the Strike.
WILL LIKELY GO OUT
Sentiment In That Direction
Seemed to Have Gained
Ground--Many Mem
bers Against II.

Milwaukee, Aug. 1.-THE members
of the Bay View lodge of the Amalga-
mated association this Afternoon will
decide for a second time whether or
rot they will obey the strike order Of
President Shaffer.
Michael f. Tighe. representing
President Shaffer. accompanied by W..
g. Davis, vice president. of the Fourth
district of the Amalgamated associa-
ton. reached Milwaukee yesterday
afternoon, but not until late last night
did he have q conference with Presi
dent Redfern. Of the local lodge. rela-
tive to the date Of the meeting. The
chances seem to favor strike, the
sentiment in that direction seeming
to have gained strength since the men
q, Joliet decided to go out. There
are. however, many conservative
p'embers Of the Bay View lodge who
favor emaining at work. There are
men who have gone through strikes
heretofore. and before another such
step shall be taken the question will
he weighed very carefully.
Should the men decide to remain
at work and should Mr.. Tighe revoke
their charter. the matter will be
taken to the next national conven-
ticn for settlement. Old members of
the association say that President
Shaffer, in calling the strike, acted
illegally and violated the constitution,
ond further, that a charter cannot be
revoked without hearing before the
district board.
