has no hope of ever being Speaker again,
even if the Republicans should gain con-
troll of the House again in 1904, as his
out-Heroding Herod in his attempts to
follow in The footsteps of Tom Rce1 in
his arbitrary rulings has won him many
enemies on the Republican side of the
House.
The fact that simultaneously with his
announcement OF withdrawal the confer
ence at Oyster Bay should have decided
that there shall be no talk by Roosevelt
OF reducing the tariff puts the Republican
party In a bad hole, and Is considered
by many as being the first signs Of the
storm of strife that is soon to break
within the ranks Of the Republican party.
This action Of the conference, which was
composed Of Senators Hanna, Aldrich,
Spooner, Allison and Lodge, will send the
President on his Western tour with a
stiff proposition confronting him. The
Republican Speaker has declined to run
for Congress, because he finds the people
IN Iowa against high tariff of which he
is an ardent advocate. The same senti-
meat that exists IN Iowa IS known to ex-
ist in other Western States. The Repub-
lican President goes to speak in those
States under special instructions not to
advocate a reduction of the tariff. The
question is such a burning one in that
locality that he will he compelled to
make some mention of it: but what will
he say?
All this means that the Republican party
Is divided on the tariff question, those OF
the East favoring high tariff and those
of tho West favoring free trade. How to
reconcile the warning elements Is the
problem the Republicans are facing. and
how to make campaign capital out of the
Sc &c a ra
working at. Senator Hanna is strong for
high tariff as are all the other Eastern
Renublicans
The probability is that the Democrats
will at once nut the tariff to the fore as
the main.issue OF the campaign, and will
drop the Philippine question for the pres
ent. It will be remembered that other
big Democratic victories have been won
with the tariff as q war cry and it is
the hope of the campaign managers th@t
such will be the case this time.
It was learned from a prominent Re
publican from Rockingham county to-day
that AZ the cnutny convention which will
be held at McGaheysville on the ODD, the
reaction of the recent Roanoke conven-
ton in regard to the elimination of the
negro from Republican party councils will
be followed by the Rockingham Republi-
cans. The word. he said, has been passed
around in the Seventh DlStriCt. and the
question has received considerable agita-
ton recently. It is thought that this
will be the case in all the counties in
the western sections Of the State and
that in a short while only the Repuhli-
cans in the East will be hob-nohhng with
tho dusky brother
There seems little doubt but that George
E. Sipe will receive the nomination of his
party in the Seventh. which carries with
it the honor of predestined defeat at the
hands of Representative James Hay.

unless the room was given thorough
overha ullng. Press Agent Herbert Duce
consented to take the responsibility Oh
having the matter attended to, thinking
no trouble would be experienced IN get
ting q kalsominer.
In this, however, he reckoned without
MS host. When he called upon K. l..
Peters for man to do the Jop ne was
informed that it would be impossible TO
accept the contract. All Of his employees
were too busy on other work. Numbers
of others were visited, and IN each IN.
stance the same reply was received, al
h;.vllsg their hands full.
at last in despair he called upon the

cation, to tip him off as to some prob
able man for the job, but they could

matinee closed this worthy put in his
appearance, and with brush in one hand
and bucket in the other, readily con-
sented to change the color of the walls
Miss Kennedy would not have this, for
the lime and water would not dry quick
II, and some costumes might have been
ruined.
there was a quandary, resulting in
another conference Of bosses. at which
all kinds of ideas as to the best course
We're advanced, but none of these suited
the occasion, and still Miss Kennedy re-
NAMED firm. It was only two hours be-
fore curtain time, and something had
to pe done, for it really looked as If
there would be no show tonight"
The bright wit of Mr.. Duce again came
the startling. Nevertheless. it proved a
solution of the puzzle. Said Mr.. Duce:
well simply fumigate the room, and If
needs be deordorize the whole stage. It
won't take long. and in less time than
you can imagine the last vestige of negro
viii have faded away"
With this idea in view Manager Leath
dispatched one of the house employees to
a nearby drug store, where he purchased
a plentiful supply of smelling stuff. and
one or two little pumping apparatus. These
We're put to play in the dressing-room,
and in short time the entire stage
smelled as If the sanitary department had
paid it visit in hopes Of killing the
germ OF some dread disease.
This was all we'll and good, but the
odor was most horrid. 1t was impossible
for the people to work in such a place.
and it was therefore necessary to SEND
again to the drug store, secure q gallon
or more of sweet smelling, high-priced
cologne. From small syringes this was
strewn 1avishly all over the stage. and
then Miss Kennedy was satisfied. In
fact. she was pleased, almost ticllled to
death, while the other members of tne
company and the stage hands seemed to
like the novelty of working in such
delightful atmosphere.
And thus it happened that the people
near the front of the house last night
were seen to sniff time after time.
An effort was made to see Miss Ken

refusal to use the room formerly occu-
pied by Black Patti was no press work
