People az They Paas. ,

According to certain young lady
who does not live many miles from
the local high school, the most polite
man In Washington state lives. or used
to live short distance from S.,o-
lqualmie falls. She only met him once,
but the meeting ana his great cour-
tesy are indelibly impressed on her
mind. Here is why he has made such
an impression upon her. and in her
own words:
1T is about three years ago since
met my polite man. A party OF us
took trip TO Snoqualmie and camped
there for some time. One day we all
went on an exploration tour, and. to
show what an excellent explorer was,
! went on ahead Of all the rest. 1t
was just about the time I was con-
graduating myself that eclipsed
everybody else as daring person that
I realized was hopelessly lost and
that the rest Of the party were prob
ably miles away and hunting franti-
cally for me.
"0f course. in my endeavors to locate
myself lost my head completely, and
went in exactly the wrong direction.

four hours, becoming more and more
frightened each minute. My clothes
were torn, was physically wreck, |
and / confess that had wept until

Then heard sound Of chopping.

confess that the sound frightened me
more than anything else, Chopping
meant man. But / did not want to
meet any strange man then; l was
too hopelessly unstrung. However,
there was nothing else to do but risk
It, and cautiously ! approached the
sounds of busy humanity and peeked
through the trees. II was really a
nice, harmless looking man. He was
working vigorously and, as 1t was a

and his trousers were rolled up half

'ush and gave one wild spurt through

MORTON AND METcALF NAMED
Martin to be at the Head of the Navy
and Metcalf of California Will be
Secretary Of Commerce and Labor
Secretary Moody Becomes Attorney
General.

Washington, June 24.-President
Roosevelt today made the following
announcement regarding changes In
the cabinet:
William II. Moody. of Massachusetts,,
to be attorney general.
Paul Morton, of Illinois TO be secfe !.
tary of the navy.
Victor II. Metcalf. of California, to
be secretary OF commerce AMI labor.
The designations of Cortelyou and
Knox have been received and accepted
to take effect July /.
1t is expected further changes Will
take place In the cabinet next winter.
Postmaster General Payne probably
will retire from the cabinet after the
campaign. He will be succeeded by
Cortelyou. Moody will continue as q
member of the cabinet only until the
end of the present administration. on
the 4th of March next, when he will re-
tire to enter upon the practice of law In
Boston. 1t is quite likely other changes
will take place, even IL Roosevelt should
be elected president. But no authority
exists at this time upon which to base
a forecast of them.

not he would accept the Office. Indeed.
he declined to make any statement on
the subject whatever, but referred nus
questioners to the president for infor-
nation. At The executive offices also
no statement was forthcoming as to
what conclusions had been reached.
Mr.. Morton Went directly to the
White House on his arrival in the city,
and together with Mr.. Meyer, the am
bassador to Italy. and Commissioner
Cooley. of the, civil service commission.
was guest at dinner with the presi-
dent. Mr.. Meyer and Mr.. Cooley left
the White House about 10 o'clock and
MIR. Morton remained alone with the
president until train time.
The fact that Mr.. Morton iourneyed
all the way TO washington to discuss
the matter OF the cabinet portfolio with
the president leads to the impression
that perhaps he has taken n. favorable
view of the presidents wish to become
a member OF his official family. How
ever there was not the least intimation
given out by any one authorized to
speak on the, matter that would justify
this conclusion. Mr.. Morton's decision
will be known today, as it is understood
an official statement on the subject Will
be made public after the cabinet meet

House of Hoo Hoo, With All Its

Specimens, Destroyed
OTHER BUILDINGS THREATENED.
House of Hoo Hoo One Of the First
Completed at the Fair and Was Built
Of Fine and Expensive Lumber
Thirty Black Cats Perishsd in the
6uildins-kansas Floods.

st. Louis, June 24.-Fire, which
threatened for a time to destroy many
buildings at the Worlds Fair today,
consumed the House of Hoo Hoo, with
all its contents. The loss is $4,000.
The fire is supported to have started
from defective electric light wire.
The House Of Hoo Hoo was one OF
the first buildings finished for the ex-s
position. and was erected by the lum-
bermen of the United States, but was
under control of the local board OF the
Order Of Hoo Hoo. It was divided into
many rooms and constructed OF differ
ent kinds Of fine and expensive lumber.
Aside from this there were specimens
OF rare woods which were valued high
~. 1t has not been decided yet whether
to rebuild or not. There were thirty
black cats in the building at the time
OF the fire, and these are believed to
have perished.

Platt had heard of the legal proceed
ings and had left for his hotel before
the. sheriff and donovan arrived at the
coliseum. The two then turned around
and came back to the auditorium no.
tel, where, after a wait of nearly an
hour, they gained admittance to Sem
ator Platt's room and the summons
was served.
According to Donovan. Senator Platt
and Mr.. Underwood, as officials of the
Tioga company. figured in the illegal
cutting of timber on tracts OF land IN
Lincoln. Lang5ale. Forest and Villas
counties, Wisconsin, and in Monte
Calm, Lake, Oscoda, and Newaygo ,
counties, Michigan.
Donovans partner, Baker, whose
heirs are CO. plaintiffs in the suit, died
in New York about ten years ago. 1t
was three or four years after Baker :
death that the alleged fraud by which
Bakers widow and children are de-
ciared to have suffered was discovered.
When seen last night, Mr. Under
wood declared that Donovan's talk OF
illegal cutting of timber on his land
by the Tioga company was nonsense.
II admit that Baker. whose partner
Donovan claims to have been said
Mr. Underwood. had a tract of land
in Wisconsin adjoining one controlled
by the Tioga company, but that land
was never invaded by our company.

gins July Is.

SEES EvAsloNs IN PLATFORM
Official Says the Negro
Plank Is infamous.

Washington, June 24.-Concerning
the national platform of the republican
party, adopted at Chicago, CHAIRMAN
Cowherd of the democratic congress-
ional committee said" Heretofore the
republican party has had record for
boldness. at Chicago II established a
record for ti,nidity and evasion. The
platform is remarkable. mainly for
what 1t does not say. The labor s:tua-
ton is acute as at any time in our his
tory, yet there is no announcement IN
regard to it. There is no longer war in
the Philippines Surely the country Is
entitled at least to know what is TO be
the future policy as to those islands
the Philippine plank does not dis
close it.
THE tariff plank is an open strad-
die, to be used as a promise of reduc-
,tion of duties to the voters and pledge
of their maintenance to the manufae-
urers Governor Cummins says: 1t
justifies the Iowa idea General Gros-
venor says: 1t Is a standpat plank
Chairman Payne says: 1t leaves the
question open 1t was evidently not
intended as a plank, but trap.
."The platform says: Our adminis-
tration of the great department of the
government has been honest This In
the face of the notorious frauds dis
covered in the postoifice department;
the scandals in the land and Indian
bureaus which the secretary Of the in
terror is concealing with so much diff
Guilty, and the forced adjournment of
congress in order to prevent any inves-
tigation, must be taken either as sar-
casm or humor.
"rhe negro plank is the only honest
plank in the platform-it is infamous.
MeKinley's noble utterances above
southern graves, mis- openly recognized
policy of white rule for southern
states was thought by patriotic men to
signal the death of sectionalism.
Roosevelt.s negro policy joined to
Lodges force bill will revive it. The
Crumpacker resolutions discarded by
republicans of house and senate alike
have been forced by the president upon
his party. 1t will prove the worst mis-
take among many. Every patriotic
citizen anxious for his country.s future,
wishing to see preserved the purity of
the Anglo Saxon race and American
institutions, is willing the southern
states shall adopt any legal expedient
that will save that fair land from the
control of an ignorant and debased
suffrage.

terday by James Donovan, a Chicago

timber from Donovan's land in Wis

title to the land.
After the praecipe in the case was
filed Donovan and n deputy sheriff
went to the coliseum, where the re-
publican national convention was IN
session, to serve the summons on Seq
ator Platt. In the meantime Senator
