Special to the Herald.

Special to the Herald.
Cambridge. Mass. Feb. 23.-TheO-
dore Roosevelt paid his first visit to
his alma mater today since becoming
president of the United States. The
president made no effort to conceal
his pleasure at the opportunity to re-
visit the scenes of his college days
and to walk again across the historic
Harvard campus. The students, too.
were glad to see him. and they turned
out en- masse to do him honor. 1t was
as Harvard man that he was greet.
ed. not as president of the United
States. and the informality of the oc-
casion was especially pleasing to Mr..
Roosevelt.
This afternoon President Roosevelt
delivered an address in the living room
of the Harvard Union, under the joint
auspices of the union and the Harvard
Political club. The address was sim.
ply ansinformal talk to the undergrad
fuates and Harvard men generally.
/ This evening the president will visit
the quarters of the PORCELAIN club, OF
which he was a member while in col
lege, and which his son. Theodore. Jr..
will probably join at an early date.
The president and his family will
leave here in time to reach Washing.

ROGERS
ON GOOD ROADS
is IN FULL SYMPATHY WITH THE
BOARD OF TRADE MOVEMENT.
A WORD OF CAUTION.

Ex-senator B. F. Rogers. one of An.
derson county's practical farmers, and
one whose judgment on matters of
public Improvement has made him a
reputation in the legislative halls of
the State, and whose opinions carry
weight in this county, gives his views
on the good roads bond issue, as out
lined by a circular from the Board Of
Trade. He writes to Secretary Sterne
of the board as follows:
Mr.. c. A. Sterne. Secretary Board
of Trade: Replying to your circular
letter of recent date, will say that the
subject of good roads is one upon
which | have bestowed much thought.
and am thoroughly convinced that
the only practical and feasible plan
TO secure them is to issue bonds TO
build and maintain them.
Please allow me to suggest and in
sist that before any elaborate plans
of construction are adopted, that the
matter of maintenance be carefully
attended to. 1t is quite an easy mat
ter to construct fairly good road in
East Texas, but maintaining it is a
serious problem.
Under proper conditions, and with
competent supervision, ! am in favor
of the issue of bonds for road improve
ment Yours truly.

The ruling shuts out most OF tie depositiohs
taken in Boston. but under it various others
were introduced written by Mrs. Eddy to the
Rev. DR.. Nixon. who in 1890 was in charge of the
Christian Science publications. These letters,
introduced by the next friends show that Mrs
Eddy believed that evil mental influences were
being exerted to hinder her work and to cause
her son to form the purpose OF breaking her
will upon her death and stopping further pub
