James GrOwney, Former Chief
Executive of City, Thinks School
Board Should Be Appointed.
To ELIMINATE POLITICS.
Believes Board Should Be Bi-Parti-
san and BE Composed of Men of
Education and High Sense--Glad
to See the Question on the Ballots
at the Coming Election-Thinl<s
the Conditions Can Be Cleared.

Ex-Mayor James Growney, when
visited by NEWS reporter, and
questioned in regard to his views in
having the Board of Education ap-
pointed by the mayor, said:
"You can quote me as a believer
in appointiye boards. Not only do
mean the school board, but the boards
in general l believe in non-parti-
san board, and ] don't see how we
can ever have one unless the new is
sue is effected"
: would you like to see the school
board appointed by the mayor?" ask
ed the reporter.
81 would" replied Mr.. Growney
and l think the people would be
pleased with the results
When asked if her would have 1iS-
ed the issue in effect during his ad-
ministration, Mr.. Growney replied :
81 should have been glad to have had
the chance, and l would have Sc
lected the best bipartisan board that
could have been had. I think the
school commissioners should be men
with education and business talents,
and l would have chosen the board
accordingly"
Mr.. Growney gave his opinion in
the matter willingly, and said he
hoped the people would realize the
Importance of the question that is TO
be on the ballots this year, and
would vote for what would be an ex-
cellent plan to avoid further COM
ment on the Board of Education.

FAITH IN THE WISHING TREE.

Odd Stories Told of n Dwarf Chestnut
Which Grows in Washington.
"The wishing tree in front Of the
White House at Washington afforded
me more fun than any other one thing
there" said globe trotter, though
the city is packed full of interesting
things. l had read Of the wishing
tree some years ago, and it was one
of the first things that asked for on
my arrival there. The tree itself is a
dwarf chestnut and is located in La.
fayette square, Immediately to the
west of Clark Mills equestrian statue
Of Washington.
This wishing tree has even more
stories told about it than the one in
Hyde Park in London. The habitues
of the square, as Lafayette park is
called there, thoroughly believe in it.
The negroes that l spoke to about it,
nurse girls and others, all agreed that
any one could get anything they would
wish for if they wished hard enough.
The wishers that observed about the
tree generally stood under it and
placed both hands about lower limb,
which is within convenient reach.
strangely enough, while | was there
| saw an illustration of its power. l
noticed black woman go under the
tree and the park watchman told me
she was regular 'wisher.' AS she
was leaving the tree l asked her what
she had wished for and she fold me
that she could not tell what it was
for until a certain time had elapsed
Going out to the street, she picked up
fine lamp, which had evidently fal-
len from an automobile, and then, in
reply to my question, she said: I
wished for an automobile, but l reckon
| didn't wish hard enough, for | only
got a lamp
Il spent an hour about the tree with
my friend Hall Caine, who tells me
that he intends to introduce it in his
next book, for which he is now max
Ing the studies. An equally amusing
thing happened a few moments after.
In going through the park Caine had
forgotten to pick up his umbrella from
one of the seats and he had given it
up as lost l thought that was splen-

tree, and suggested that he go under
the tree and wish for the recovery of
his umbrella. He had not got half

REToRTs BY ROYALTY.
Also Some Daring Replies Made to
Them by Subjects.

The kaiser's latest joke, which is
going the round of the European pa
pers, is by no means bad specimen
Of royal humor, says Tit-Bits. When
the German emperor was visiting the
ancient castle of Saalburg a few weeks
ago with Dr. Lucanus, chief of his
majesty's civil cabinet, as companion.
he was shown some pottery, recently
dug up, which dated from Roman
times. By an odd coincidence the
name of the maker of one of the old
vases was deciphered as "Lucanus. I"
"Halloa! Lucanus!: exclaimed the
kaiser. as the name caught his eve
now Is this? You are always boast
Ing about your ancestors and here l
f1nd they were only potters after all"
But one might fill columns with
similar samples of royal wit. Much
more rare and perhaps more interest
ing are the stories of jokes made at
the expense of kings. An excellent
example of a clever retort was that of
the attache of the British embassy in
st. Petersburg, who, when dining at
the imperial palace quite recently had
the misfortune to upset his glass of
claret. The czar, seemingly annoyed
by the incident. asked from the other
end of the table, DO they do that kind
of thing in England" "Oh, yes" came
the prompt and daring retort, but no
notice Is ever taken of it."
Equally swift and even more dar-
Ing still was the rebuke once admin
istered to the prince regent. When
George was walking in Portsmouth
one day he shouted out to one of his
boon companions whom he saw across
the road, "Halloa, Towers! l hear YOU
are the greatest blackguard in Ports
mouth" Il hope" shouted back Tow
ers, with profound obeissnce. your
royal highness has not come here to
take away my character" This an
swer is oddly reminiscent of another
OF which the merry monarch was the
victim. Meeting Lord SALISBURY.
whose character as a libertine was
notorious, Charles greeted him, 81 be-
lieve thou art the wickedest fellow in
my dOminions." For subject. sir"

When Frederick the Great. after ap-
pointing a man Of European ill-fame

with a bow, "a worthy representative

was ever so cleverly and crushingly
answered as George III. when he
asked Horne TOoke If he ever played
cards. Your Majesty" said Tooke.
Il cannot tell king from a knave."

PEN PICTURE OF ROOT.
A Washington Correspondent De-
scrfbes Great Lawyer-Statesman.

Washington Correspondent De-
scrfbes Great Lawyer-statesman.
A Washington correspondent who
has studied Secretary Root impartial
iy and thoroughly presents this pen
picture of him:
Root is not a popular idol He
probably never will be. He lacks hui
man magnetism. He is cold, stern,
calculating, hard. astute, deliberate,
conservative, reticent. None of these
adjectives are to be found in the de-
scription of popular idol such as Mr..
Roosevelt. What other men have done
In the possession of other qualities Mr..
Root will do by sheer force of intel
lect, concentra ton, devotion to public
duty and remarkable constructive and
executive ability. His will be a con-
quest of brains and ability, If conquest
1t proves to be.
Take a close view of him here at
Washington and learn the method and
manner of the man. You cannot study
him in the social atmosphere, in the
atmosphere of club or popular resort.
You must have some business that
Is his business, business that will
bring you in contact with him In his
work, for he does nothing now but
work. This is literal. Ask the mes
sengers of the State Department, who
used to go home at o'clock every

afternoon and are now found at their
places at Z o'clock in front of the
closed doors of their chief. Ask his
secretary, who nightly carries a big
leather portmanteau of papers to his
hotel and who never leaves his room
until within an hour Of the change of
days. Ask the night watchman about

when, in the 20 or more years of
their service, have they paced the
halls Of the big granite structure to
meet face to face Secretary of State
hurrying from his work to the even.
ing meal.
To the State Department he has
brought all of the wonderful resources
Of his great mind. The State Depart.
ment is his client, and as such has
taken the place Of the millionaire
clients he had in Gotham.
Step by step in days Of work from
0 O'Clock each morning until Z o'clock
each evening, he is familiarizing him
self with the case of the State Depart
ment. In time he will have mastered
1t to his satisfaction. Then he will go
before the committees Of the Congress
to plead it. Already some of the
remedies he wants applied are known.
He will watch ms case with jealous
care and answer with unanswerabe
arguments every urging against what
he wants. To this task he will bring
all of his wonderful natural ability,
all Of the training Of the foremost law
yer of the country and perhaps of the
world, and all of the training he has
had as public man who deals with
men and affairs.
In New York City in the IA months
Root was out of public life and in the
interim between his occupancy of the
place as War Minister and Foreign
Minister he built up law practice
which was approaching the 100000
per annum mark-measured by the re-
turns received. This practice was sec
ond, perhaps, in remunerative returns

est organizer of trusts or legal adviser
of the organizers or trusts, made as
high as 100000 in single year, but
it was boom" year for the combina-
ton of independent enterprises.
Mr.. Root gave up all the brilliant
prospects for financial advantage and
comes to Washington only reasonably
rich. He comes because of the op-
portunity of impressing his personality
on the history of the country to which
he gives of his talents. He comes back
because of patriotic duty and a be-
lief that when called men of his parts
should give the best they have to the
republic.
