MUCH TALKED OF
CABINET CHANGES
Summing Up Of Latest Developments
Show That Several New Members
Will Be Named.

Washington, D. c., Dec. 1-Mr.
Morton, secretary of the navy, to be
to the treasury department.
Mr.. Metcalf of the department of
commerce and labor, to take the place
of Mr. Hitchcock, secretary of the in
terror.
Gov. Murphy, of New Jersey, and
Charles Bonaparte, the latter a sound
money Democrat, of Baltimore, and a
warm personal friend Of the President,
to be given cabinet places.
This epitomizes the most recent
phases of cabinet gossip.
Two things become apparent in all
of the talk about cabinet places. Lit
tie by little the President is letting it
be known that he wishes to retain the
old members of his cabinet with the
exception of the present secretary OF
the interior and of the treasury. By
this process he is expected to show
these two officials, as delicately as pos
sible, that their places are to be given
to others. This does not mean that the
President is out with either of the two
men named, or that they are not val
ued as competent officers. 1t simply
means that circumstances exist which
render changes in these two places de-
sirable.
In the case of Secretary Shaw, it is
generally recognized that he hopes to
be the nominee Of his party four years
hence, and no matter what he may do,
or how faithfully he may perform his
duties in the future, he will be criti-
cised, and his motives will be i'm
pugned. 1t would probably be found
embarrassing to the administration to
have in the official family an acknowl-
edged aspirant for the Presidential
nomination.
In the case of Mr.. Hitchcock there is
general belief that if his resignation
is rendered at the beginning of the
new administration it will be promptly
accepted and the place filled. Mr..
Hitchcock and the President have
agreed in most things relating to the
management of the interior depart
ment. Where they have not Mr.. Hitch
cock has acquiesced in what he found
to be the Presidents wish with alac-
rity.
Governor Murphy, Of New Jersey, is
we'll qualified, it is believed, for the
navy portfolio, and Mr.. Metcalf, OF Cal
ifornia, now secretary of the depart
ment of commerce for the interior de-
partment. Mr. Metcalf is familiar with
conditions in the western half of the
country, with whose interests he would
have to deal as secretary of the inter
ior. He is a good lawyer with the ju-
dicial temperament which is needed in
handling much of the business of the
interior department and in unraveling
the tangles of interior department bus
mess.

do Tuesday, came today. J. M. Will

cupied the summit of 203 Metre Hill.

siege guns on it's summit they can
force out the Russian squadron or de-
stroy it at it's anchorage.

gram announcing the storming of 1903"
Metre Hill was received with cheers by

TRIUMPHS OF MODERN SUR
gerry.

Wonderful things are done for the
human body by surgery. Organs are
taken out and scraped and polished
and put back, or they may be removed
entirely: bones spliced; pipes take the
place of diseased sections of veins;
antiseptic dressings are applied to
wounds, bruises, burns and like in
juries before Inflammation sets in,
which causes them to heal without
maturation and in one-third the time
required by the old treatment.
Chamberlain Pain Balm acts on this
same principle. 1t is an antiseptic
and when applied to such injuries,
causes them to heal very quickly. 1t
also allays the pain and soreness.
Keep bottle of Pain Balm in your
home and it will save YOU time and
money, not to mention the inconveni-
ence and suffering which such in.
