the two distinguished fun making
have commenced the preliminary
work on the lecture, and will en-
ploy odd moments during the next
few months getting the product
ready for joint delivery at Chau-
tauqua courses an in lecture
courses next summer.
An interesting rumor is going
the rounds that Allen and Taylor
had great deal of difficulty in
reaching an agreement as to which
should speak first, and the matter
has not yet been satisfactorily set
tied, but it has been decided that
they will either take the platform
turn about, or will speak stimuli
taneously from opposite ends of
the stage, in a manner somewhat
akin to that Of the end men in the
olden time minstrel show.
LONGING DENIES REPORT.
Governor Longino has entered
an unqualified denial to the inter
view telegraphed out from Chica-
go, in which it is made to appear
that he gives his full endorsement
to each and every act of the ad-
ministration of President Roose-
welt, and in which he highly com
meLds the public and private acts
of the chief executive OF the ma
tion.
The governor states that he did
not give ont an interview while in
Chicago, nor did he make a full
expression of his views concerning
the present administration; thai
he was approached by reporter
Of some paper, who asked him fol
a statement Of his views on ths
Presidents message, which he de
clined to discuss, saying that tn,
subject was to old; that the re
porter then asked him what h,
! thought Of Roosevelts expression,
on the subject of trusts, and he re
piled that it "is good so far as i
goes" The reporter then asket
him to relate some anecdote
which he declined to do, sayin,
that he was not story y-teller, an,
this closed the subject.
