~wHIsrLE SOFTLY
'Not Yet Out Of the Woods" Admon
ishea Mr.. Roosevelt.

OYSTER Bay, L. l., Aug. 3f.-eWhistle
softly, we are getting into the thln
timber. but we are not yet out Of the
woods
This homely adnonition represents
accurately President R0osevelt's view
OF the situation at Portsmouth. Peace
is in sight, yet Is not an accomplished
fact. Profoundly a. he Is gratitied at
the results already achieved by the plen-
ipotentiaries, the president realizes fully
that most important work remains YET
to be done. Until that is accomplished
il Is scarcely the part Of wisdom 70 do
more than whistle softly
The president has no definite idea how
long tie plenipotentialies may be en-
paoed in the negotiation Of the treaty
of peace. He believes that it ought
not to take a great length Of time, be-
cause the points Of difference having
been resolved the Incorporation Of the
tentative agreement reached becomes
practically only d question of phrase,
ol0uv. The Importance of the text q
tile yarious sections of the treaty i
not minimized BY the president and he
appreciates thoroughly that obstacles
may arise at any moment that might
delay seriously the negotiations or pos
sibly wreck them entirely. The wood.
will not be cleared entirely until thV
treaty Is signed and sealed.
The place to be selected for the ap
pending Of signatures to the treaty
raises question Of interest. 1t wa
assumed. prior to the meeting Of tn
conference, that the treaty, whereye
it might be negotiated, would be signel
in Washington and be known hereafte
ia the Treaty Of Washington
# i proposed that the signing Of tht
treaty. take place at Sycamore hill, a
compliment to President Roosevelt
The treaty then would be known a
the, aTreaty Of Sycamore HILL
The question lies wholly with the con
ferees and it Is likely to remain unde
termined until they practically have con
elnded their part.

Can't Lose It Now If They

TO BURLINGTON TEAM
And Latter OF Rutland viii Need to
Win Every One of Remaining
Games to Approach stand
ing Of Intereitys.


Iodays ball game at lntereity park
with the Plattsburg team viii not be
played, because tie New Workers have
quit tie Northern league. Yesterday
afternoon Manager Cosgraye of that
team coolly made the proposition that
il the locals would guarantee him GER
tain sum which he said was necessary
to cover expenses and salaries. lie would
bring along his bunch Of nondescripts,
and would also play two games on
Labor Day. The lntereity management
turned down the proposition as the
games wouldn't be figured the standing,
because that team has been withdrawn
from the league.
The detection Of the New Workers
leaves only two more games Tor the
Intercitys, at Burlington tomorrow ana
OH the home grounds with the same
team Saturday afternoon. There prob
ably will be a record breaking crowd out
for the latter game, as it win mark the
close Of the season for the Intefcltys.
Burlington aud Rutland will close the
league with a doubIe-header at Bur-
lington on Monday.
The pennant is assured for Barre
Montpelier in any event Ii the locals
should lose both their games to Burling
ton and Burlington should also win its
remaining four games with Rutland, the
standing would be, Intercity .5s2,, Bur
lington .5T9. But it il scarcely possible
that the Queen City team viii take all
the six games remaining on its sehed-
ule, for both the Intercitys and the
Rutlands will go after the games, the
| former TO maintain their Commanding
lead and the latter with an ambition
10 beat out Whitney's pets for second
position.
According to the figures Of the Bur-
lington papers, Burlington viii win the
pennant if its team takes all the SIX
games remaining, by % points. The
standing by the Whitney method Of
Juggling with figures, would be: Bur-
lington ,593, Intercity .57l But those
figures are not the official standing Of
the Northern league The difference lies
in the counting By Burlington Of two

WANDERED FROM HOME.
Peacham Man Was Located in East
Montpelier, Where He Had Hired Out

montpelier, Whefe ne aao nAtta OAts
peacham. August 31.-for several
DAYS this community was deeply stirred
over the sudden and strange disappear
ance OF Frank Robinson, son Of William
Robinson Of this town, who suddenly
left home late Monday afternoon, his
whereabouts being unknown. A repre-
sentative Of The Times, in an interview
with members Of the family, obtained
the following information concerning the
strange disappearance Of the young man:
Mr.. Robinson is man about thirty
eight years Of age, blacksmith and
wheelwright by trade, having a family
consisting of wife and one son, q lad
OF seven years. He has worked at his
trade for several years until the past
summer, when he came to this town and
lived with his father-in- law. Charles
Thresher, for whom he worked on the
farm. Last Saturday morning he went
10 drive the cows TO pasture while Mr..
Thfesher and his son were doing the
Saturdays churning. Soon after Nlr.
Thresher and his son went to a back
lot about a mile from home to cut
some grain, expecting Mr.. Robinson
would Join them after the morning
chores we're done. AS he did not again
appear around the house, the women
folks supposed be had gone to the grain
field, and il was not until Mr. IhIeshel
came home at night that bis disappear
ance became known.
An inquiry among the neighbors gave
no clue as to his whereabouts, and th'
alarm was then given. Sunday morn
ing hundreds Of people joined in tn
search, but without avail. 1t was plan
ned to continue the search on Monda,
on o larger scale, but Sunday evenin:
word was received from Charles Bartlett
farmer living in Danyille, that he ha'
seen Robinson Saturday afternoon nea
the residence of S. W. Cole in Marsh
lfeld. Mr.. Robinson was then going il
4 the direction Of Marshtield. The searcl
was called Off, and Mr.. Robinsons fathe
4 and his wife started in pursuit. He wa
4 traced through Marshfeld and into Cal
ais where he stayed over night wit
Fred Slayton, after walking about sev
enteen miles. Sunday morning he con
tinued his journey to East Montpelier
where he tried to find work, and late
| engaged with Edgar Cummings wher
he was found Monday afternoon, BY hi
wife and his father, William Robin
| son. He readily consented to retur
and on Tuesday was taken back to hi
home in Peaehsm.
| Mr. Robinson had complained latel
Of severe headaches and also had som
troubles with his eyes, and it is sup
posed that owing to i'll health and over
work his mind had become temporaril
unbalanced, which accounts for his sin
gular actions. He left home attired
d pair OF old overalls, and a light frocI
which he wore doing chores, and witt

about thirty miles when he was foun
