The Web of lifes

Life is the daily web Of character
We unconsciously weave. Our thoughts,
maginations, purpose, motives, love,

passing moment is the suttle, swiftly,
eeaselessly, relentlessly, weaving
hose threads into a web; and that
web is life-S. d. Gordon. .

CALHOUN DENIES CHARGE

Editor older.

SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. .29-Patrick Cal
houn of the United railroads said today
that the alleged attempt to kidnap Fre-
mont Older could not truthfully be made
to appear to have been undertaken by
those defending themselves from charges
of bribery.
'The facts are" said Mr.. Calhoun. that

Under the state constitution there are
but two places that a man accused of
criminal libel can be Hrraigned one is in
the county of the person libeled, the other
is in the county where the libel is pub
lished.
''Mr. Brown swore out a warrant in Los
Angeles county and had the warrant ap-
proved in this county by Judge Cook.
Older was then arrested and an attempt
was made to take him 10 Los Angeles
1t was but an ordinary arrest"
II is further pointed out by Browns
friends that It is perfectly obvious that 1t
would have been futile to have attempted
the arraignment of Older in San Fran
cisco county, owing to the relations ex-
listing between Older and the prosecuting
officials of San Francisco.

days of social and diplomatic activity. Sec
retary of War Taft and his party spent
quiet Sunday, resting in the Palace of

on the famous lawn of the castle, with a
number of Japanese, youths. 1t was in
tended to play the game today, but his
father objected and caused a postponement
until tomorrow.
Among the more important of the callers
today was Lieutenant General Terauchi,
the imperial minister of war who had a
lengthy conference with Mr.. Taft
Some importance is being attached to
the fact that there have been two confer
ences between the two war minister's and
on account of the mutual admiration and
the influence of Lieutenant General Tarau-
chi, 1t is believed i'm certain quarters that
the ground work is being laid for an en-
tente concerning immigration which, It is
conceded, is the only point on which there
Is difference of opinion between the two
countries.
Another of Mr.. Taft's callers today
was Leveus Wilhey, representing Ameri-
can commercial interests in Shanghai,
who is anxious concerning the attitude
of the United States in view of the talk
of the dismemberment of China, and who
came here to request that Mr.. Taft make
positive statement concerning this on
the occasion of the dinner to be given in
his honor by the American Association of
Shanghai. 1t is understood that Mr.. Will
fey was informed that Secretary Taft
would make no statement on the question.
Secretary Taft and his family took a
long drive in special carriage this aft
ernoon. The route which the carriage
would take had not been announced, but
the crowds in the streets recognized the
American secretary OF war and greeted
him with cries of "Banzai" and bows and
smiles. 1t was quite evident that the en-
thusiasm was spontaneous. The Japanese
believe Mr.. Taft is a peace envoy.
