Bound to Have Trees.

Judge T. r. B. Wright, presiding over
circuit in the northern neck of Virginia,
has adopted novel plan for having va
rious court house green's beautiiied with
trees. which appears well worthy of adop-
ton elsewhere. At the last term of the
circuit court for Lancaster county, Va,
Judge Wright called attention to the want
of trees about the court house building,
and called for volunteers among the pub
lic-spirited citizens who would plant trees.
will procure lindens, maple and other va
rieties of shade trees. and during the term
of the court this month one day will be
set aside for an arbor day. and will be de-
voted to the planting of the trees Each
tree will be properly marked with its spe-
cies and the name of the planter, and
plot will be made OF the ground and loca-
ton of the trees, and will be made part
of the records of the court.

THE WHITE COMPANY
BY A. CONAN DOYLE.

kiss was the common salutation of the age,
and. as Erasmus long afterward remarked
more used In England than In any other
country. Yet it sent the blood to his tenn
pies again, and he wondered. he turned
away, what the Abbot Berghersh would
have answered to so frank an invitation.
He was still tingling from this new expe-
rience when he came out upon the high
road and saw sight which drove all other
thoughts from his mind.
Some way down from where he had left
him the unfortunate Peter was stamping
and raving tenfold worse than before. Now.
however, instead of the great white cloak.
he had no clothes at all, save a short
woolien shirt and pair of leather shoes.
Far down the road long-legged figure was
running, with a bundle under one arm and
the other hand to his side, like man who
laughs until he is sore.
See him!" yelled Peter Look to him.
You shall be my witness. He shall see VIM

with my cloak under his armr'

me out of my gown =

1T boots not. He hath them alf-Kown,
1erkin, hosen and ALL Gramercy to him
that he left me the shirt and the shoon.
doubt not that he will be back for them
anon"
But how came this?" asked Alleyne, open.
eyed with establishment.
Are those the clothes? For dear char
ity's sake give them to me. Not the pope
himself shall have these from me, though
he sent the whole college of cardinals to ask
1t. How came 1t? Why, you had scarce
gone ere this loathly John came running
back again. and when ! open mouth
to reproach him he asked me whether IL was
indeed likely that a man of prayer would
leave his own godly raiment in order to take
a laymans jerkin. He had he said, but
gone for while that might be the freer for
my devotions. On this I plucked of the
gown, and he with much show of haste did
begin to undo his points; but when threw
his frock down he clipped 1t up and ran off
all untrussed, leaving me In this sorry
plight He laughed SO the while like a
great croaking frog, that / might have
caught him had my breath not been as short
as his legs were long"
The young man listened to this tale of
wrong with all the seriousness that he could
maintain; but at the sight of the pursy, red
faced man and the dignity with which he
bore him, the laughter came so thick upon
him that he had to lean up against a tree
trunk. The fuller looked sadly and gravely
at him; but finding that he still laughed he
bowed with much mock politeness and
stalked onward in his borrowed clothes.
Alleyne watched him until he was small in
the distance, and then, wiping the tears
from his eyes, he set off briskly once more
upon his journey.

The Presidents RenIv


The President replied as follows.
THE WHITE HOUSE.
OYSTER BAY. N. Y,
September q, 1906
My Dear Mr. LOOMS: In answer to vo,r
letter OF September 18th I desire to state.
In the broadest and most emphatic manner.
thal the statement you quote as appearing
In certain newspapers. and especially in
certain New York newspapers. as to the
supposed differences of opinion between
myself and the late Secretary of state Mr.
Hay, In respect to the action taken by me
regarding Mr.. Bowen In connection with
the charges against you, is not merely
without roundation In fact, but Is the d.
rect reverse of the truth
You were appointed Assistant Secretary
of State upon Mr.. Hays suggestion and re-
quest. He never spoke to me about Won
save with respect and cordial appreciation
of the services you were rendering and he
expressed to me very great regret that Won
were going to leave the service and stated
that he had hoped that you would stay in
as long as he did, and that he would find
1t difficult to get any one in your place
whom he would like so much
Mr.. Hay expressed himself very freely
on the occasion of his last visit to WASH
ington, including the last occasion when l
ever saw him alive. as regards the action
taken by me on the report of Mr.. Taft con-
corning the charges made by Mr. Bowen
against you. Not only did he express him
self about Mr.. Bowen to me in the Ian
guage you quote him as having used at
about the same time to you in speaking of
Mr.. Bowen, but he also condemned Mr.
Bowen in much stronger terms than those
which you quote him as having used and
dwelt particularly upon the fact of what
he called the treachery and disloyalty of
Mr.. Bowen to the government and to him
(Mr. Hay), repeating again and again that
most of the charges Mr.. Bowen made were
really not charges against you at ALL but
against himself tMr. Hay). and that Mr.
Bowen, of course, knew this.
Moreover, Mr.. Hay used about Mr.
Bowen stronger language OF condemnation
than have ever heard him use about any
other man who had served under hims But
this was not all. Mr.. Hay then did what
he very rarely. indeed. did. He expressed
his strong dissent from the action I had
taken In Endorsing Mr.. Taft's report as re-
CARDS even the mild censure of you which
1t contained, stating that he disagreed with
both Mr.. Taft and myself on this point and
felt that you were In way whatever
censurable. and that the only action that
had been called for was the dismissal OF
Mr.. Bowen and the announcement of your
entire vindication. Very truly yours

Roosevelt's Principles,

President Roosevelt, in his speech in
Denver Monday night, concluded with
the following comment on the Panama
project:
1T is perhaps unnecessary for me to
say that | am perfectly aware that
many most admirable gentlemen disa-
greed with me in my action toward the
Panama canal, but | am in an unre-
Pentant frame OF mind. The ethical
conception npon which | acted was that
did not intend that Uncle Sam should
he held up. But without regard to
That, when the canal comes into opera
ton think it will have very import
ant regulatory effect i'll connection with
the transcontinental commerce OF the
railroads. l think when such is the
case these great railroads will have to
revise their way OF looking at the inter.
ests of certain inland cities.
''As say, gentlemen, don't misun
derstand me. | understand thoroughly
the argument from their standpoint.
and see that they can in all sincerity
bold the position, and while | do not
think that anything | can say could
have any effect in making them alter
that position. / have considerable hopes
for the effect of the Panama caual.
Let me repeat, have told you my
views as TO what | regard to be the
most important matter Of internal leg
lslatlon that in the immediate future
will be before this people. | wish to
say again that important though that
legislation is, it is nothing like as i'm.
portant a. the spirit in which we D.
proach it. If we approach it in the
spirit Of demagogy, if we permit our.
selves as a people to be deluded into
the belief that permanent good will
come to US as mass if we attack un.
justly the proper rights OF others be-
cause they are wealthy, we shall do our
selves just as much damage as If we
permitted an attack upon those who
are poor just because they are poor.
