JEROME MAKES HIS
REFUSAL ABSOLUTE
win Not Be Candidate FOR Mayor. Blu.
Wants to Be District At
torney Again.

LAKEvILLE, Ct. Sept. 5.-District
Attorney William Travers Jerome,
who is at his summer home here, gave
out the following statement, in which
he positively declared he would not
be candidate for mayor OF New York
City, The statement says:
"on January is, 1905. in reply to
inquiries from newspaper men, said
that did not desire to be candi-
date for the office of mayor of the
city of New York OF to be mayor of
the city, and that ! did desire to serve
another term as district attorney of
New York county.
"on August l, 1905, in formal pub
lished statement, l said this again,
and further said that II. at the
proper time, there were 1000 electors
in the county of New York who desir.
ed to have me again run for the office
of district attorney l would cause a
petition to be filed nominating me for
election to that office. and in that way
submit It to the people of that county
to say whether or not they desire me
to serve them for another term in the
Office now hold. mean what said.
and at no time have for one moment
changed or reversed in my declared
purpose.
Il should say nothing further were
It not for the events of the past week.
In view of these events and that my
silence may not be misunderstood,
first, l reiterate my former statement
of August 1. 1905.
Second, shall do exactly what in
that statement ] declared then In
tended to do.
Third, will not, under any circum-
stances, be candidate for the office
of mayor at the forthcoming election"
Chief of the events of the past week
to which Mr.. Jerome refers was the
conference on Thursday night of the
various ant.Tammany bodies to con-
slider candidates and a platform. At
that meeting Robert Fulton Cutting
said-and he has since repeated the
statement-that Jerome was the Citi-
zens' Union only candidate for mayor.
Mr.. Cutting admitted at the time
that the Union had not consulted Mr..
Jerome as to his Willingness to head
the. ticket, nor were they, certain
what his views were on the question
of municipal ownership, which Mr..
odell has apparently planned to make
the chief plank Of the fusion platform.
If Jerome's. statement is to be taken
at its face value, and nothing could
be palmer than his language, next
Thursdays anti-Tammany meeting
will be free to consider. candidates.

Life on Mars.

According to a report the astrono-
mers at Flagstaff Arizona. now believe
after noting the change in colors of
certain sections coincident with
changes in the Martian year. that
brownish sections of the planet which
were before supposed to be seas were
simply stretches of winter denuded
soil. since at other epochs these same
sections show a blue-green tint, indi-
eating fresh vegetation. If this is cor
rect the conclusion that intelligent
beings inhabit that planet appears
very reasonable. From what we know
of life in various forms in the part Of
the world we inhabit. plants exist for
the sustenance of animal life. and the
various animals are made to serve man
in conquest Of nature and the progress
Of civilization: through which means
alone man can attain the perfection
necessary to enable him to continue
his existence in still higher sphere.
The entire creation as fas as we know
it on earth is one chain in which each
link is dependent on the other and all
interlocked with this final end in view.

facts are similar In other worlds. es-

ODE TO IDAHO

(By ]. E. Defebaugh, editor of tn
American Lumberman, while on visl
with a delegation OF Chicago bushes
men to Boise, April %, 1909
You have heard Of Siwash maidens.
You have heard of Zulu bells,
You have list to German legends
Like to those that Goethe tells.
But will tell the story
OF another kind Of girl
A girl who is a Yankee.
A girl who is a PEARL
Her face Is like an angels,
Her eyes with lovelight shine.
Her every movement graceful
Her form a form divine.
Her hair is like the raven,
Her brow is like the snow.
Her heart is true and gentle
And her name is Ida Ho.
For her I'd leave Virginia.
I'd leave my Mary Land.
I'd part with Mrs. Sippi.
I'd leave Louisa Anna
And other Annas too.
I'd bid farewell to Georgia.
Though Georgia would be true.
I'd part from Minnie Sofa.
I'd part from Dell A. Ware,
I'd leave brunette Miss Sopri,
The Carolina pair
These women all are lovely.
True-hearted girls. I know;
But I'd give them all the go-by
And cleave to Ida Ho.
I like her breezy manner.
like her honest ways,
I like her in the moonlight.
like her sunny days.
I stroll with her through arbors
That hang with golden fruit,
/ hear across the meadows
A birding pipe its lutte.
walk with her by rivers
That flow to distant seas.
| And side by side, breathe perfumes
Distilled by every breeze.
Goodbye. my own Virginia,
And the other girls know;
I'm hanging round the gatepost
OF girl named Ida Ho.
