Women can tell good stories as we'll as
men. Here is one related by Mrs. Chap
man Sinnickson. the western lecturer:
Il used to know pretty girl whom a
young banker was counting timidly. One
afternoon in the garden the banker
scraped up courage enough TO ask in a
tremulOus whisper for kiss.
Tine pretty girl looked at him grave
A kiss she said. You ask me for a
kiss. Now, applied to the hand a kiss
signifies respect. On the forehead IL de-
notes friendship. Upon the lips it indi-
cates-all things-or nothing
She paused pensiyely, then she went
on:
Yes, Herbert, you may. since you
wish it, kiss me. You may express your
self iii one kiss. Proceed
THE timid Herbert, red and confused
pondered.
a. I mustn't lose her. he muttered TO
himself. Where then. shall / kiss herr
The forehead, the hand? Through re-
spect and friendship love may eVentu-
ally be gained, but if | am at the start
too bold
Suddenly his meditatiOns were inter
rupted by a thrill of divineSt melody it
was as If a nightingale were singing
The young man looked up.
''T4Ie girl was whiStling, her red mouth
puckered into the shape of a rosebud
Her hat was pulled down over her eyes
hiding her forehead completely, and her
hands were thrust up to the wrist in the
pockets OF her jacket

About Alleged Embezzler.

Mrs. Irene Wray Harold has, turned
against her husband, W, T. Harold
who married her after she had been re-

Harold is being held in the county jail.
He was arrested at the request of the

Mrs. Harold, who is in Salt Lake, de-
clares that he a few days ago asked hef

life and did not have the nerve TO slay
himself.
She intimates that all has not been
told concerning the Lille Jordan suicide
case. Miss Jordan. before her death,

Miss Jordan WAS the daughter OF
Conrad Jordan, a carpenter, of 3S'
Wall street. She declared before her
death that she had been wronged by
Harold and by ffarolds friend, who had
been introduced to her as Richard
Thompson of Brigham.
1t is now understood that the POca-

old. He is still being detained in the
county jail, but will probably be re-

WILL NOT BE GIVEN OUT.
Statement by Juror Evans Might Do
Great Harm.
lspecial to Me- Herald.l

Boise. Ida. Dec. 21--What Juror
Evans had on his mind when he sent
word to Judge Wood yesterday that
he wished to make a statement did not
come out at the Pettibone trial today.
It is the understanding ii viii not come
out. The attorneys could not find a
way I'm which the desired statement
could be made without mourning the
risk of invalidating the jury or its
work.
Judge Wood. when court met, referred
to the subject briefly, saying it was the
duty of jurors to notify the court If
they were tempered with or if they
were mistreated by the bailiffs or denied
opportunity TO see their families. Be
yond that, he could not conceive Of any
subject on which a communication
should be made by a juror. That ended
it.
Persons connected with the case have
a general idea of the nature of Juror
Evans unspoken complaint, and they
agree il would imperil the work that
has been done should the juror give ut
terance in court to what is on his mind.
An intimation of what it is has been
permitted to leak from those having
knowledge of il.

u, investigating the trouble between
the Goldfeld Mine Owners association
and the Western Federation of Miners.
There is no denying the fact that
the situation in Goldfield is delicate. -
said General Funston "As things
stand now in the camp, I do not look
for trouble. The troops have carefully
avoided displaying any sympathy for
either side and the majority of the
union miners seem peaceably inclined.
But the mine owners have taken a very
determined stand and given their ulti-
matum that they will never again en-
ploy a member of the Western Fedora
ton. They declare that they will op-
crate their mines with non-union la
Dor. and although they have not vet
done so to any extent, I believe there
will be serious trouble if they start to
import non-union miners from the out
side.
AS to- the merits of the case, it is
not easy TO form an opinion"

MOTHER LOVE.
baltimore SUM-

Take the glory of the conquests and
the grandeur of the morn,
Theasp lendor of the tTiumphs out Of toll
and patience born,
The beauties of the cities and the armies
of the just.
Moving down the golden valleys to the
victories of the dust
But the mother love that wraps around
a hayward child its wings
Is sweeter than all triumphs and is
stronger than all kings.
The mother love is gentleness that mel
lows through the years.
With lips that kiss the brow that aches
and song to stay the tears:
The mother love is tireless in the vigil
that 1t keeps
To guard the couch from danger where
the bloom of loVehOOd sleeps.
o, wayward, weak and weary, and ye
who walk in sin,
Be sure the heart of mother love will ope
- and let you IN.

Some Shortcomings.

Il might refer to certain admitted
shortcomings in the conduct of NUM-
cipal affairs in the Philippines, which,
however, should not have the effect of
discouraging those who are interested
in the subject of experiment To eff
feet these, it might be remarked that,
even in the United States, municipal
government has not been a shining sue
cess. 1 do not hesitate to say that mu
nicipal governments are making good
progress and are gradually accomplish
ing the purposes for which they were
created. We are in this quandary.
When those who are responsible for
the policy of autonomy in municipal
and provincial governments assert that
it is progressing satisfactorily, we find
our words are apt 10 be construed by
enthusiastic theorists who are con-
WINGED off-hand of the complete fitness
of the FilipinOs to govern themselves,
and so fully establishing the correct
ness of their views. On the other hand,
when the defects in such local govern
ments are pointed out, the cry is raised
by pessfmists and adherents from the
English crown colony system that that
is an admission of failure, as we'll as d
concession that we have gone too far in
entrusting local governmental power to
the Filipinos. The truth, as it is con-
ceived by me, lies between the two ex-
IRENE positions. The result indicates
neither that the Filipinos are fitted at
once for complete self government, nor
does il Justify the view that they may
not be made ultimately capable of COM
plete self government by a gradual ex-|
tension of partial self government as
they become more and more fit to ex-|
erpisa If -

TAFT BUREAU
WORKING HARD
Columns Concerning the Sec
rotary Put on the Wires
'LeSt We Forget"
MANY CALLERS RECEIVED
POLITICS, OF COURSE, THE
PRIME MOTIVE.

Washington, Dec 21.-SecTetary
Taft's first day at his desk since his
return to the United States was a busy
one from beginning to end. He had a
great number of callers. Among these
was J. L. Bristow of Kansas, at one
time first assistant postmaster general,
but now residing in Kansas. Senator
Fulton of Oregon and Senator Long of
Kansas, and Representative Scott of
Kansas also, had access TO the secre-
tary's private ear for a time. If they
talked politics, and some of them ad-
mitted that they did. notably General
Bristow, the secretary himself was not
to be led into any discussion of that
subject with the newspaper men who
wished to talk about it later. In fact,
he said to them very plainly that the
aheme was a forbidden one at this mo-
ment, but that if a proper occasion
arose in the future he would be glad
to make a full statement on the sub
ject. That answer covered all questions
as to his plans for the immediate fu-
ture, such as the probability of his go
ing to Ohio to take part in the contest
over the early primaries.
Will Attend Banquet.
He did admit, however, that he would
attend the banquet of the Home Mar
ket club of Boston and address that
body on the night of the 30th inst The
topic is to be the Philippine tariff and
might i'm one sense be regarded as pp-
litical in its relation to the American
tariff, though Secretary Taft will en-
deavor to have the projected removal
of duties on Philippine products i'm
ported into America considered on a
non-partisan basis. Colonel Cocktails
chief engineer of the Panama canal,
and Senator Blackburn, a member of
the Panama canal commission, and r.
r. Rogers, the law officer of the COM
mission. talked with Mr.. Taft about
affairs on the isthmus. The secretary
has yet to submit to congress his an
nual report, one of the most important
chapters Of which will deal with the ca
nal construction. He very much de-
sires to make a personal visit to the
isthmus to get the information he needs
at first hand. Indeed, he was urged to
make this visit especially by Commits
siOner Blackburn, but, owing to the
vast accumulation of business await
ing his disposition, he could not prom

Goidfield Order Executed.
The secretary found time during the
day 10 repair to the White house and
confer with the president briefly about
the situation in GGldfeld, New, the re-
suit of his visit being the issue of an
order to the commander of the depart
ment of California providing for the
formal execution of the decision of the
president, announced in his telegram to-
Governor Sparks yesterday, to with
draw the regular troops from GOldheld

for Mr.. Taft, is expected in Washington

Witnesses to Examine in

STORY OF MRS. IDA ToNEY
SON OF THE WOMAN ALSO ON
THE STAND.

Boise, Ida, Dec 21.-with the ex-
ception of the examination of two Colo

tically the same as that given by his
mother.
James H Hawley and Senator W. e.
Borah, leading counses tor the state, to-
night stated that they were well sat
isfied with the case and regarded 1t as
much stronger than that presented
against HAYWOOD. The same testimony
as in the former trial was given, and in
addition, Mrs TOney and her son, and
Charles Neville whose evidence the
state regards as damaging, were W.T.
nesses for the prosecution

In view of the request made by L. L
Vans. a Juror in the PettibOne case, at
the adjournment of court yesterday al
ternoon. that he be permitted to make
2 statement to the court and leading
counsel. Judge Wood this morning ad-
n1onisbed the jury that if any attempt
was made to communicate with them
the matter should be reported 10 the
court. Judge Wood ascertained that II
was not concerning anything Of TINS
kind of which Evans desired to speak.
Mrs Ida Toney, the Colorado wife OF
Harry Orchard. was called 10 the STAND
and was further cross examined by MI
barrow. She was questioned closely as
IN dates. and he drew from the witness
M etatement that Orchard had told
her of meeting Detectives scott ana
Sterling.
The redirect examination of Mrs. To-
nov was begun this afternoon She
said that before coming to Boise, James

has accumulated during his long ab-
sence, Secretary Taft viii begin the
preparation of an extended report on
his observations in the Philippine is
lands. In an interview tonight, Mr..
Taft discussed at much length the sit
uation in the islands from both a po-
Iitical and material viewpoint, and ex-
pressed himself as highly gratified with
the progress that had been made in all
lines.
1.-THE whole situation he said, brief
~, may be summed up in this way:
Peace prevails throughout the Philip
pine islands today in a greater degree
than ever in their history, either under
Spanish or American rule Agriculture
is nowhere impeded by fear on the part
of farmers of predatory bands. Under
the policy inaugurated by President
Mckinley in reference to the establish
ment of a temporary government the
Philippine community, consisting of
several million people, are free from
robbery and predatory bands, which
broke out from time to time, due to
the local causes. The people are sup
porting the government.
This is real peace, comprising all the
word implies. This is the first and pos
sibly the most important accomplish
ment of The United States in the is
lands. From an educational standpoint,
too, / found much to encourage the
supporters of our policy i'm the islands
and those who share in our hopes for
the future

Work of a Generation.

THE Fiiipinos are in a state of tUte-
lage, ripe to receive modern western
conceptions of religion and politics, as
they shall be educated to understand
them. This is the reason why / believe
that the whole Christian Filipino peo-
pie are capable of training and becom-
ing a self-gOverning people. The COM
mon Filipino agricultural labOrer sends
his children to school to learn English.
There is no real difference between the
educated and the ignorant Filipino that
cannot be overcome by the education
of one generation.
when do you think the people will
be sufficiently well educated to enable
them to govern themselves" the sec
rotary was asked.
THE Philippine government has not
funds enough to educate in primary and
industrial schools all the present gen.
Grafton of school age" he replied, land
unless some other source of funds or
governmental means is found, it will
take more than generation to COM
plete the primary and industrial educa-
ton of the common people. Until that
is done, we ought not to lift our guild
ing hand from the islands.

Art Bowen has made another confess
sion TO the police, in which he gives the
details of a mean plot to rob his room
mate, Herman II. SchO6eld. He SAYS
that he met a man several weeks ago
who talked to him of the easy money
to be made by robbery. To begin with.
it was decided to hold up SchOfield,
BOWen's room mate. Bowen took his
confederate in the plot to point near
the house in which he TOOmed with
SchOfeld.
He then left the robber and waited

Bowen pretended to be very indignant
and insisted upon going to the police
station TO report the robbery. He met
the rObber on the street car on his way
to police headquarters. The two left
the car at Fifth South street, so as to
give BOwen's confederate d chance to
get away before the police were in
formed of what had occurred.
