ton which the president extended to a
caller to take dinner with him last
night at the White House was de-

was the man who rejected the invita-
ton He is an old-tine friend of
President Roosevelt. They formerly
ranched together on the Little Mis-
souri,.
willis, accompanied by Thomas
Everett, of Harlem, Mont, called on
the president with Senator Carter to
discuss what they maintained are dila-
tory tactics by engineers of the recla-
nation service on the Milk river pro-
ject in Montana. They said the engi-
neers had been on the work for four
years and have not finished 1t, al
though 1t ought to have been done in
six months.
When the president extended the
dinner invitation, Willis pleaded he
could not accept 1t because he did not
have a dress suit. The president as
sured him that need not worry him,
but Willis was obdurate. The presi-
dent said he would be glad to enter
tain him in q suit Of buekskin, but
Willis insisted that he knew what was
proper and said that while he would
be glad to join the president In a

Chicago Woman Physician Spends a
Night in the Open.

Lake Placid. N Y. June 29-After
a search lasting all Wednesday night
and throughout Thursday forenoon,
DR.. J. D. Merrill, a prominent woman
physician of Chicago, was found yes
terday by Charles Martin, a local
guide, on the summit of Mount White
face, where she had passed the night.
In company with Miss j. L. Warner
of Boston, with whom she is tramping
through the Adirondacks, DIR. Merrill
Wednesday left the Lakeside Inn in
this village, planning to climb the
mountain, go down the other side
and reach the village of Wilmington
before nightfa1l. Where the trail di-
vides in two parts halfway up the
mountain the women became con-
fused, one taking one and one the
other branch. Miss Warner became
frightened and made her way back to
the boat landing.
Searching parties at once set out
from the village to locate DR.. Merrill,
and it was not until about noon yester-
day that she was found on the summit
of the mountain, where she had passed
the night beneath the shelter of a
friendly ledge. The woman was as
sisted back to the village suffering
from exposure and the terrible nerv-
Gus strain.
