Takes Vigorous Exercise.

During the first two weeks of his
stay he gained pound a day, acquir-
ing Herewith such a stock of energy
that he was today able to ride eight
cen miles, walk three miles, and, in adj
dition to the usual course of exercise
with the big medicine ball, box fifteen
minutes vigorously with Muldoon.
When visited on the veranda of the
Muldon residence his face showed good
color, his eyes were clear, and his
hand stead. He looked a trife tired
but otherwise well. Mr. Root asked to
be excused from talking about his
health, but his appearance was a suffi-
cient contradiction of the exaggerated
reports of a complete breakdown. His
physician visited him today, but left
without making any arrangements for
his return.

Victim of Nervous Exhaustion.

According to Mr.. Muldoon, Secretary
Root. when he arrived, was suffering
from nervous exhaustion, the result of
overwork and strain.
He was very nervous" said the ex-
athelete; more SO than | ordinarily
care to see patients. His brain was
tired, he was anxious, and worried
about things which never happened
and never could happen. He was very
weak then, but when he goes back he
will be the strongest member of the
Cabinet He is taking a course of ex-
ercise suited to his age and strength,
and goes at his work with the energy
you would expect from man who has
come to the front as he has. He
knows something about boxing, too
seems to have learned it as boy and
never forgotten"
During his stay at White Plains Mr..
Root has ben rsting as much as posi-
BILE from mental work.
Though no special effort has been
made at secrecy, Mr.. Roots presence
has been quite unnoticed. He had
ridden almost daily with tie other pa
tents over the roads about White
Plains, several times passing through
the town, and had received his private
secretary for the transaction of neces-
sary State Department business. His
presence at the sanitarium became
known through the filing at the local

ASH O INCREASE.

An important meeting of the Or
der of Railroad Telegraphers of Stat
en- Island and vicinity, in the employ
of the Staten Island Rapid Transit,
was held at Arlington Saturday night
for the purpose Of discussing the
matter of an increase of wages and
more time off. A representative was
present from every Office throughout
the island. A committee was ap-
pointed to present a petition to Sup
e%rintendent Cassidy, of the Rapid
Transit, for 4 twenty per cent. in
creas in wages and also for two days
off each month, the same as all other
roads have recently given the oper-
ators in their employ. The commit
tee waited on Mr.. Cassidy on Sunday,
but as yet no definite answer has heen
given. 1t Is thought most likely that
their demands will be acceeded to.
The prime mover in this is said to be
James Fl. Nugent. operator and ticket
agent at Huguenot.

Silas Barton. of Asbury Park, was
a visitor in the borough yesterday
and called on c. Ellison, of Mechan-

of South Amboy about thirty years
ago and lived in one of the brick
dwellings, on Second street, east of
Broadway. At hat time he said
First street was a piece of woodland.
When we meet a former resident of
the borough who has been absent for
twenty-five or thirty years and re-
turns to the place and does not know
where to find the. places he wishes to
visit, it certainly shows we are ad-
vancing though we may not be max
ing as rapid strides as some of the

owns a number of mines in South
America and will at once begin their
development. The erection of a

Company was begun and has seer the
plant grow until it is n of the best

chosen for the important duty in
South America. After leaving Ham
mond Mr.. Church will go to Tonnes
