their father for a fellOW-camper one
night and this was a genuine treat to
them, for the President has been so
mighty hunter that no matter how
many times his boys call on him for
new stories he has always fresh tales
to relate of thrilling adventures with
bears and moose and buffalo.
Archie las not yet been permitted
to own gun Of his own, but he is
something Of a hunter himself and his
'menagerie'' always includes in addi-
ton to dogs and cars and guinea pigs
a number of pets such as rats, owls,
squirrels and other animals which he
has captured and domesticated. Until
a short time ago Archie possessed a
rabbit of which he was exceedingly
fond, but the animal died and was
buried in with appropriate ceremonies,
being replaced in his affections, to
some extent, by game rooster which
is assuredly as plucky a fowl as ever
came out Of an eggshell.
Holidays are always observed most
carefully in the Roosevelt family.
Upon the occasion Of the President
last birthday anniversary, Archie
helped decorate a birthday cake' for
his father by placing on the cake light
ed candles equal II number to the
years of his age. On the night Of the
Fourth Of July Archie always has a
fireworks display, and Christmas is in
variably celebrated with elaborate fes-
tivities.
Some time ago Archie received from
bicycle. He was so pleased with the
gift that he forthwith proceeded to ride
it up and down the long hall at the
White House, much to the terror Of
the servants, who feared that he would
collide with the furniture. However,
Archie's fondness for the wheel has
somewhat waned now that he Is the
owner Of one Of the handsomest Shet-
land ponies in the country. He has
given his steed the Indian name AL
gonquin, and indeed the animal strong
ly resembles, in color, the so-called
Indian ponies of the West, his coat
being a mixture Of bay and white.
For riding purposes young Roosevelt
has a costume that is strongly suggest
i've of the attire Of the famous Rough
Riders whom his father commanded in
the Spanish American war. The SOM
brero hat is of exactly the same shape
as the headgear worn by the horse
men Of the plains and Archie also has
g. miniature copy Of a cowboy whip,
blu. ne wears a gray sweater instead Of
a flannel shirt and khaki coat. Young
Roosevelt likes to cover plenty Of
ground when he goes for his afternoon
gallop, but like his father he tries to
be careful Of his steed.
Archie has turned a considerable Dor
ton of the White House grounds into
playground for the use Of himself and
his boy comrades, but to this no one
says him nay, for he is a favorite with
all the policemen who are on duty at
the Presidents home. This admiration
Is mutual. Archie Is present at police
inspection" almost as regularly as
any one of the blue coats, and when
the guardians Of the peace We're pho
tographed some time ago Archie was
given place among the officers in the
front line.

If the race be lost or won?

WANTS NEW ADMINISTRATOR.

| The estate of Milton J. Stewart, for. mer owner of what is now East Rock
 park, and the estate of Judge Julius
 c. Cable, formerly of the common pleas court, are involved in bitter controver- sy in the probate court, It appears that the late judge was executor under the will of Stewart, whose son bearing the same name, yesterday brought applica- tion for the removal of Mrs. Alathea Cable, widow of the deceased judge, from the position of administrative os the estate. The claim is made by Stewart that certain real property of his fathers holdings were sold by the ex- ecutor and that no accounting has been made. either by the judge during his lifetime or by those now in charge of the Gable estate. F.
 Three other allegations are made. One is that after his death Judge Cables estat was inventoried at low figure to defraud the state of Connecticut out of an inheritance tax. As the law now reads an inheritance tax is required from all estates over s1000O in value. Also 1t is asserted that Mrs. Cable bond as adninistratrix was only $500, while the property left by the common pleas judge is alleged to be worth $20,- oO0 The applicant demands that a capable business man be appointed to manage the Cable affairs so that the Stewart estates interests will be pro- tected.
 A hearing on the application was postponed till December 25 by order of Judge Cleaveland. Attorney Garrett Smith of New York, who is Mrs. Cabie's counsel, appeared in court to ask for the continuance. This and the fact that Willard c. Warren, counsel for Milton J. Stewart, failed to appear yesterday led Judge Cleaveland to grant the con- tinuance. The probate judge also de- sired postponement, as he will call in a judge from another district, because he considers himself disqualified on account of having studied in Judge Cables office for two years.

Is "a Fine Edition

Washburn Daily Press. The
special midsummer edition of the
Washburn Times on which Editor
Jones and a large extra force has
be en- working the past few weeks is
at last ready for distribution or
practically SO. Few people realize
the amount of labor and Pains that
have been expended i'll preparing
this work. The principal idea Mr..
Jones has in mind has been to state
nothing but facts. Untried theory
or fanciful possibilities have no place
in the edition.
In order that the different parts
of the county might be fairly and
correctly represented representa-
tive of the Times visited every town
in the county, camera in hand and
took facts and figures as we'll as
pictures of the leading industries.
This work alone occupied consider
able time.
The mechanical end of the job was
no small undertaking for country
newspaper office and some idea of
the intensity of it can be gained from
few figures given by Mr.. Jones.
The paper containes sixteen pages
and $1,000 copies have been printed.
To do this required "a, 900 impression.
two and one half tons of paper and
seventy five pounds of ink. The i'd
ton contains l78 halftone engrav-
ings most Of them new ones, taken
especially for the Times special.
The whole paper is well gotten UP
and an excellent piece of work. The
print is fine and the cuts show up
well. Much space has been devoted
to the agricultural phase Of the
county development and the large
| circulation which the paper is
assured of means that Bayfield,
county will get a big advertisement.
Nearly the entire edition of 1000
copies has already been sold and
long before everyone is supplied it
will be exhausted. Mr.. Jones feels
justly proud Of the success of his
labor and well he may. It was big
undertaking and it has been carried
out in manner deserving of the
highest praise
