There is the prospect of a good

points to construction work on
larger scale in the cities of the west

labor conditions and lower material

MRS. ROoSEVELT'S
 SOCIAL CABINET.

Mrs. Roosevelt and her advisers will arrange for all social events given by the official set, so that there will be no conflicting dates, says a Washington let ter. Their supervisory control will even extend beyond the wives of senators and representatives. for there are many so- ciety leaders whose husbands are not in congress, and they will not care to send out invitations to receptions unless they are sure they will not run counter to some official or quasi-official affair. Con- sequently all who are fin society,"" as society is recognized by the autocrats, will be compelled to consult with the Ladies cabinet in regard to "open time'' before making any entertainment arrangements.
 Mrs. Roosevelt's cabinet also will pass on all invitation lists, and will decide on who are and who are not fin society,"" In this last they will have the assistance of Second Assistant Secretary of State Adee, who will designate the seating ar engagements at all official dinners, to see that the diplomats are given the places to which their rank entities them, and that the representatives of unfriendly nations are not placed too closely to- gether.
 The decision of Mrs. Roosevelt's cab inet will be final in all social matters, and those who consider that they have been sighted will have no appeal, ex- cept in the case of diplomats, who will be referred to MT. Adee. Those who are not fin society," will be left to get along the best they can.

NEW YORK IS NOT
 THE WHOLE THING
DIR. NEWELL DWIGHT HILLS DE- CLARES MEN OF THE WEST ARE TRUE MoULDERs OF THE MA TONS HISTORY.

New York, October 4-In a sermon on the work of missionaries in this country during the last hundred years the Rev. Dr. Newell Dwight Hills in Plymouth church Brooklyn, has declared that the men of the west are the true moulders of the nations destiny
 ''So accustomed are we to thinking that Athens made Greece, that Rome made Italy, that Paris made France, that Eng land Is London," he said, "that we be- lieve now that as New York goes so goes the destiny of the United States. But. I say that as New York goes does not go the destiny and history of the United States. I do not mean that New York has no influence, but we in our self sufficiency have come to over emphasize ourselves.
 ''The boy who is nourished in the city, who all his life has breathed only the tainted air of the city and has been cramped beneath his surroundings has no chance. It Is the boy who has been rear ed far from the complexity of city life that does things. Here a man loses his Individuality The men who will make InemSelVeS known forty years nence are now husking corn in Nebraska
 "The real preachers" Dr. Hillis went on, "are those whose work is done in the west" and he contrasted their work with his own, saying:
 q am man who spends his little mix ing tonics to try to get up an appetite in you who are gorged to the point of gluttony"
 There Is no pessimism about the noun tains, no talking down of the institutions of this country. Tho-e men have now be- gan a revival of patriotism to oppose the pessimism of you men in New York. It is the west that has furnished the heroes for the last two of t44ree generations. Here you are eating many kinds of foods, pouring rich wines down your thoats, saturating yourselves with all kinds of ease and luxury, and then pre- pairing to die out of life, when God has put you here for something better. You are not happy but in seven days 1 could make you happy, organize the resources of life in the interest of the poor and weak and for misery you wid have happiness, for selfishness that corrodes you will have blade that flashes more and more and then you will known real lux ury of service"
