Is Hughes Doing Anythingp

SO far as anybody here knows Gov
Hughes is not turning a hand to secura
delegates to the national convention next
year.
Some of Ills friends have announced that
they will see that he does not lose the
state, but they are evidently acting with
out instruction from him. Without any
thing like an organization. which he re-
fuses to build up, Coutd Gov. Hughes get
solid delegation IRON. New York? And
without Il solid delegation, would his
chances in the contention be good? Then
too with Cortelyou regarded as dark
horse, and not aVerse to a few del gates,
and Root a possibility, the situation in
New York is, to say the least, an interest
ing one.
As between Root ana Hughes, the Presi-
dent would personally prefer Root Il hun
dred times. Taking hand in such "a
fight would he another matter. As be-
tween Cortelyou and Hughes. the Presi-
dent would be equally strong for his
Secretary of the Gr "a Sury.

Was Scott Talking for Himself?


OF course. Senator Scott could have been

t.een on what might be called intimate
terms at the White House. but his rela-

growing closer for some months. From
the White House he went to the State De

has been a good many months since the
name of Root was used in connection with
the presidential nominal by any one
around the " hite House.
1t Is known that while the President
holds Secretary Taft in the highest es-
TEEN there is no member of his cabinet
nearer to his heart than Elihu Root. The
intensely close relations between the two
men is a matter of history. If the Presi

floral devices, glittering armOr and all
the thousands of odd things that were
being prepared for the most dazzling
comic opera of the year, "The Minstrel
of the Sahara"
The scenic artists had been working
day and night for weeks, and, with the
-'opening" cow only a few days off, the
managers were nervOusly dreading
that the beautiful effects would not be
finished in time. To add to this fear,
Henry Granger, the artist on whom
the projectors Of the great spectacle
had mainly depended, had succumbed
to the strain Of working for days and
nights without sleep and scarcely stop

his little east side home, tossing and
raving in the delirium of typhoid fe-

sidered serious at first, some one else
had filed his place, and now he was
forgotten. Scenic artists, like actors,
are improvident creatures, and IL any
of the warm hearted stage folk had
had time to think of aught except the
duties that weighed so heavily on each
and every one they might have

and pale face, surrounded by golden
curls.

The people at the leper settlement
don't want the Committee of Ten to

q goodly train OF suitors assigning.
Was this affair to be the grand af-
fair? The older sister hoped so. for
she liked the young man cordially
thought he was just THE sort to
make proper brother-in-law.
But the weeks passed and not
bit of definite news about the prog
ress of the affair did the older sister
receive in her city boarding house.
She became anxious Lodise, she
thought, must not go on recklessly
trifling in such important matters.
Then one night about ten O'Clock
just as she was going to bed. came

up. The older sister was country
girl enough to be thoroughly fright

envelope. How ominous 1t looked.
AT length she gathered courage to
open it. This is what she read

she had no Bible.
There was a great scurrying about
the boarding house to find a copy Of

cry arose: Who's got a Bible ?"
Just think of the sister trying TO
