Much Business Cleared Up at the First
 Sessions.

Boston, Oct, 1S-Much business was cleared up at the first days formal ses- sions of the triennial convention of the Worlds Woman's Christian Temper ance union in this city. The delegates met in Fremont Temple, which was crowded throughout the day The well come of state and city was extended by Governor Guild and Mayor Fitzgerald. Mrs. Lillian M. N. Stevens, of Portland, Me, vice. -president-at-large of the Worlds union, presided, and reports of officers and of the executive committee were presented, The remainder of the day was given over largely to the pre- sentation of greetings from other or ganizations and to the introduction of the leading representatives of many countries at the convention.
 A resolution asking President Roose- welt and Secretary of State Root to re- new the suggestion formerly made by the president and the late Secretary Hay, that Great Britain and the United States unite In presenting to other na- tions treaty to forbid the sale of opium or intoxicating liquors to unciv- liked, was unanimously adopted.
 Late this afternoon the governor ten- dered the delegates a reception at the state house, and the mayor rendered them a tea at the Ford building. This evening there was a public meeting in Fremont Temple.

 CONFERENCE WITH TAFT

 in which he was entirely successful. There had never been any intention of placing him in command of the entire American forces, and when his work was done in connection with the cessa- tioh of active hostilities he returned to the United States, according to the orig inal plan, A mark of the favor in which General Funston Is held by the president, the secretary said, was to be found in the fact that this officer was to be placed in command of an entire division of the army, although only brigadier-general, which is without precedent
 Secretary Taft said that he was anx- ious to have General Bell return to Washington as soon as possible, as he was much needed here in connection with important business of the general staff. But that officer understood the methods of doing business with such people so thoroughly that the secretary felt he was the best representative he could have in Cuba at present The secretary hopes to recall General Bell in the course of month or two,
 The report that General Pershing would succeed In command of the American forces in Cuba was erroneous, according to Secretary Taft, as the command was too large for a junior among the brigadier- generals.
 When the question of the length of time of American stay in Cuba was brought up Mir Taft said 1t was not possible now to make any prediction.
 When the bad feelings stirred up by the revolution had subslded, and there
 was ample assurance that elections could be hfad without violence and
 with fair dealing on all sides, and with a disposition to abide Loyalty by the re- suits, then, and not before, would the retirement of the American forces be
 in order. Certainly they would not re- tire before the elections. In answer to the question as to how long 1t would | take to install the new government aft l or the election the secretary said he believed three or four weeks would suf- | flee.
 Relative to the disposition of the mili-
 tary and naval forces in Cuba, he said
 there was a force there now of 2,4O0 marines, and all but about four or five hundred were to be withdrawn, most of them returninae;o the stations whence they had gone, As the marines were called away they would be replaced by soldiers and the number of these, orig inally fixed at $500 men, would proba- bly be increased to about 1000. The sec retary declined to state what proportion of the expense of this army would be charged against the Cuban revenues, but said that matter would be treated In special order He remarked that he would make written report to the president of the result of hIs work in Cuba. He intended to do this on the trip north, but bad weather tossed the battleship Louisiana about like a cork In two violent storms, the worst she had experienced since her launching.

each of them insists on practising fiy- ing and fighting with pirates after he returns to the nursery-yet 1t Is their older kin who have the keenest pleas ure. For the play is so constructed that the appeal to the imagination is keen. Dried up, logical, analytic old minds forget cerebration and calcula- ton for a while, in a quintessence of romance.
 Here are the widest of childhood fam cies realized. People actually fly about in the air, very naturally. Pirates, red skins, an underground house whose en- trance is through tree trunks, fairies for companions, yet In no form grosser than that of fickering light these are the actualities of the play They are so skillfully shown that they are not cheapened, and they are vivlfied by the human interest running through the fantasy. The whole play Is a filagree of visualized poetry.
 Miss Maud Adams is no small part of the play She has the delicate appre- ciation of the childhood crystalized here; she is a child, and we are chil- dren with her. Laus deo Daintily quaint; quaintly dainty, altogether charming is Miss Maude Adams as Peter Pan.

 Charles H. Crawford, of Boston, was then introduced by the toastmaster. He said that he was going to New York after the Convention, and that he in- tended to tell MT. Hearst that if he sent his doctrines up the Connecticut valley he would find the banks lined with schoolmasters who would be ready with loaded guns.

St. Augustine, Fla, Oct. 1s.-Frequent messages were received at the wireless telegraph station here to-day giving the progress of the tropical hurricane. Eearly this morning the storm was re- ported in the vicinity of Havana, doing great damage there, but details were lacking Later the storm reached Key West, blowing down small houses and trees, being particularly severe along the water front. As the day wore on the storm reached Jupiter, where it Is stated the wind blew seventy miles an hour.
 Wires are down south of Jupiter. The wireless report has been received from the Miami district. Residents of Anas- tasla island were warned of the ap- proach of the storm and some of them moved over to this city.

Neither the land lines nor the coastwlse cable is in operatloi There has been no storm here and the cyclone which has broken communication with Havana evidently was confined to the central and eastern part of the island. Efforts are beinb made to re-establlsh com munication from. this end,
