Saw On Isthmus.
A DAY AHEAD or SCHEDULE
Will Embody Results of His observa.
tons in His Special Message to
CONGRESS.

Washington, d. c., Nov. Gloom
pleting a remarkable trip to Panama
duruing which he travelled thousands
of miles by sea, and visited not only
the Isthmus, but Porto Rico as well
and voicing his thorough enjoyment OF
the entire voyage, President Roosevelt
returned 10 Washington at 10: AZ
O'Clock last night.
The trip up the Potomac on the con
verified yacht Mayfower, to which he
and his party were transferred from
the Louisiana at Piney Point in the
afternoon, was made without special
incident AS the Mayflower pulled into
the dock at the rear Of the office OF
the commandant of the navy yard
Miss Ethel Roosevelt, the presidents
daughter, and Miss Hagner, Mrs
Roosevelt's secretary, were waiting to
greet the party. Miss Roosevelt i'm.
mediately rushed on board as soon as
the gang plank was laid and affection
ately greeted her father and mother.
There was also at the dock to vel
come the President Captain Mccoy, U.
s. A, and Lieutenant Commander Key,
of the marine corps, the presidents
aides, and the commandant and other
officials of the navy yard and the Uru-
guayan Charge d'Afaires.
The president landed within 10 min
utes after the arrival of the Mayfiow-
err. To those who met him he stated
that he had had delightful trip and
that he was feeling finely. President
and Mrs. Roosevelt Immediately pro-
ceeded to the White House.
President and Mrs. Roosevelt reach
ed the White House shortly after II
o'clock. AS the president alighted
from his carriage he shook hands with
all the attaches and others waiting
on the portico.
Speaking of his trip the president
said: "We had a very pleasant-very
enjoyable time and / am deeply i'm
pressed with the United States navy,
with Panama and with Porto Rico"
The Panama canal, it was stated by
the president, will be subject of a
special message and consequently on
that subject the president will say
nothing at this time.
The usual cabinet meeting was held
today. The president left here on his
trip November s, and the cabinet ses-
sion today was the first since the cleo.

sent me down east to visit Aunt Sadie
sort of a reward of merit, you know.
for they never had liked Frank. There
was a railway wreck on the way which
delayed me. 1t was nothing serious,
but ii made me so nervous | couldn't
sleep, and never was so tired before
as | was that first night was at Aunt
Sadie's.
Aunt Sadie is an inveterate match
maker. She married young, always has
been devoted to Uncle Jim, and all
that sort of thing. You know the type.
Well, she had told the star young man
of the town--the only millionaire in
the place-about me. l think she
hadn't stinted herself any on adject-
ives during the recital. He is quiet
young man and so she had dwelt on
what she Is kind enough TO call my
vivacity
When she heard about Frank, she
thought it was all over but sending out
the invitations. Aunt Sadie is an opti-
mistic soul
We'll, as | have said, was tired.
More than that, | was sleepy. | was
| just starting up to bed when the star
young man was announced. He GER
| tainly was doing his part nobly. We
| sat on the porch. l have always been
so thankful for that. and that Aunt
! Sadie and Uncle Jim were with us.
For l couldn't think of thing to say.
Really, Tom, I--even couldn't. And
| when j did say anything my voice
sounded so funny that didn't dare
to try to talk.
Il wanted to go to sleep-I, who
have insomnia and never willingly
went to bed before one o'clock in the
morning in my life. | felt as though
] were slipping away from everything
and everybody. 1t was a good enough
feeling, until 1t changed to a horrible
feeling that some one had asked me a
question. Some one had. 1t was he.
Should say yes or no?
Il didn't know the answer, so at
last / said, Pardon me, but you
| weren't speaking to me, were your
"%hen he arose and said, 1t was
IA 4 NoS- OCe Vi yOu hOt
| to answer / will say goodnight
1T seems that he had asked me to
go out in his new automobile the
next day, and, well. / never saw him
again. He told Aunt Sadie that he
| thought she had peculiar ideas of
what charming and vivacious meant.
Il got good and rested during that
visit, but / didn't get anything else.
Perhaps do talk too much, but at
least the most conspicuous failure
ever made in regard to a man was
when / didn't talk enough"
Tom laughed. Talk all you want
to, Margery--to me- he said. Il like
| it, but / believe I'm little glad that
on one night in your life you didn't
talk. A man with a million and an
utomobile-that's bad combination
to try to beat
Margery seemed to be smiling, but
| he could not tell the color of her
eyes, for they looked straight down
into her lap.--Chicago Daily News.

ton for being unusual and ask It any
way. Did you ever stop talking for
five minutes except in church or at a
funeral and, II so, why?'
Margery smiled, which wasn't at all
what Tom had expected. The prime
reason for asking the question was to
see If her eyes, which looked so very
blue, would turn so very black, as they
did now and then when she was angry.
Margery was still smiling as she an
swered, Yes, Tom. once l said only
about ten words for a whole evening.
There was handsome and rich young
man there, just for me to talk to, too"
The eyes were still blue, but there
was a mischievous twinkle in them.
What was the matter with him"
asked Tom. Was he deaf and dumb :?
And had your early education been so
neglected that you couldn't talk to him
on your fingers?"
Margery considered awhile before
answering.
Il don't know whether or not I'll
tell you," she said. You don't deserve
to hear good story, and this one is
good"
