Mems Meetings.

At recent conference of committees
from the various Protestant churches in
this community it was decided that it
did not seem advisable to Join in the
Chapman evangelstic campaign which
some of the other towns and cities will
have next month. But realizing the adj
vantages of a union movement, it was
decided to hold series OF mems meet
ings for the present, following the
general plan which has proved so sue
cessful at Lyndonville. The first of these
meetings was held in the Y. NJ. c. A
building Friday night and about 40 at
tended The next one will be held in the
same place on Friday evening at s
O'Clock and all men in st. Johnsbury are
cordially invited to attend. Such meet
ings cannot fail to help all who attend
and incidentally result in many uplifting
influences in this community.

TAG CAMPAIGN STARTS
NEXT SATURDAY

- A meeting of the tag" ladies
of the city is in session this aft
ernoon in the Women's hotel, pre-
pairing plans of campaign. Next
Saturday the ladies' identified with
red cross badges, will go out upon
the main streets and any man they
tag" Us expected to donate some
sum, any amount he pleases, to a
fund which is to be divided be-
tween Sacred Hearst, st. Luke's
and Deaconness hospitals, and 10
per cent to the Associated Char
, tiles. The ladies are to issue 10000
slips of paper with red crosses
printed on them. These will be
! sold for 10 cents apiece, but II a
man is charitably inclined he can
pay any sum he wants to and it
won't be refused.
In Seattle last Saturday 1000
tag ladies' raised $4,000. The
local force will number about 400.

of the United States senate, who
is in charge of the train; Stenogra-
pliers Mischief and Curtis, who at
tend to Mr.. Taft's correspondence,
and 10 newspaper correspondents.
Mr. Taft's life on board the train
Is devoted to routine work as well
as handshaking and speechmal1ing
There are hundreds of letters to
read and answer. There are the
newspapers to go over every day,
so that the candidate may keep
himself informed on all that is 60
ing on politically. There are tele-
grams to be dispatched and an
swered at every stopping place.
There are interviews to be pre-
pared and speeches framed. Pic
lures must be autographed; tele-
phone calls must be answered
when the big cities are reached;
and last but by no means the least,
there is the all-important voice to
be nursed and treated and kept in
shape by the throat specialist. Just
as soon as Mr.. Taft leaves town,
DR.. Richardson seizes upon him
and whisks him into the little COM
partment office which is fitted up
with spraying machines and a reg
ular apothecary's stock of chemi-
Gals and materials. The candidate
then submits his throat to a thor
ough treatment, and, by the time
the next stop if reached, the speak
ing apparatus is again ready for
the ordeal The fact that Mr.. Taft
is obliged to talk in all kinds of
weather, and on the train where
coal dust is continually filling his
throat, accounts in a large meas
ure for the difficulty he is meeting
The meals served Mr.. Taft are
what one usually finds on a Pull
man diner. His car is stocked by
the Pullman service at every i'm
portant city. He is a hearty eater,
as almost all large men are, and on
this trip is eating one more meal
day than he does when at home in
Cincinnati or Washington. He
never has luncheon when at home,
going without this meal in order to
keep down his flesh, but on the
present tour takes his place at the
midday meal in order to entertain
the numerous senators, governors,
congressman and important local
committeeman who come aboard to
I ride with him through the land
where the ballots bloom.

MONEY CAN'T BUY
BUILDING PERMITS

What is the bill?" is a ques-
ton frequently asked Miss Ewing,
the industrious clerk of the board
of public works, by persons to
whom building permits have been
issued. When informed that no
charge is made the prospective
builder with his first permit has
been known to look up in sur
prise, as if he were amazed at get
ting something for nothing, par
ticularly in connection with build
ing enterprises.
There have been applicants for
building permits who wanted to
pay for the service and placed
money on the table for that pur-
pose, but they were told that
their money was counterfeit when
it comes to paying for building per-
mits.

ALONG TO PATCH UP HIS
THROAT BEFORE EVERY

Special Correspondence to The Press
ON BOARD OF THE TAFT
SPECIAL, EN- ROUTE, Oct g.
William H. Taft has travelled the
world over and has tackled and
solved many of the biggest. tough
est questions confronting the gov
eminent, but the job he is on now
is the most strenuous in all his
career.
Travelling in an upholstered car
meeting a multitude of enthusiast
tic friends and listening to the
band would strike the layman as
of life. So it would, for a day or
two. But when it's an unbroken
program week after week, for from
is to 20 hours a day, the ordeal is
calculated to try a mans temper
and his strength clear to the limit.
Game, as in all the tests TO which
he has been subjected, Taft retains
his smile and his energy.
To see him when he returns to
his car after a half hour stop at
Wayback Corners, where he has
made a speech, shaken hands with
1000 men and women, taken a car
rage ride past the residences of
the mayor, the man who used to
be in congress, and the man who
made his fortune out of bone but
tons. and has perspired until his
collar is a dishrag and his face
shines like haymaker's, would
convince any man that ali the hon
ors that could result from such
hard work would be we'll earned.
Hello, Bill" greets him at sun
rise and is the last thing he hears
at night. If the candidate isn't up
at the first, Hello, Bill" the man
who shouts it generally yells, IF
you don't come out here and let us
see you We'll vote for Bryan"
which is considered a great joke
in that locality. If Mr.. Taft is
within earshot of the pleasantly
he smiles broadly and looks out of
the window or comes to the rear
platform, where his admirers can
see him.

of the Constitution; the private

force and the newspaper men; the

"LI77LE SISTER" OF PULLMAN

Special Correspondence to The Pres

Special Correspondents to The Press
PULLMAN, ILL.,, Oct. 6.-"Yes,
we are to lose our little sister,"
said a Drawn workman in the Pull
man shops, when asked IL it was
true that Jessie May Tinsley, the
beautiful daughter of General Sup
erintendent Robert. Tinsley, was so
beloved by the Pullman employees.
Miss Jessie has been the friend
of every man, woman and child in
Pullman" said the bearded giant,
and, although we know she is to
be happily married, we hate to see
her CO."
Miss Tinsley is to marry North
Stone, a Harvard man now in the
grain business st Evansville, Ind,
Oct. Z. The wedding will take
place at the Pullman club, the only
building in Pullman large enough
to accommodate the guests.
Like Bertha Krupp, mistress Of
Essen, Miss Tinsley has for years
made the lives of the workmen
and their families her personal
care. She has moved among them
as one of them. She has visited
their homes, dined at their tables,
listened to their grievances, SYM
pathized with their troubles and
given time and money to. alleviate
their suffering. She has been like
a daughter to every family in Pull
man. No wonder they hate to see

ers, for it was on them as well as
the policeman. Someone had taken
the suit Of clothes and dressed the
dummy up, knowing that the two
would come in late.
A subdued chuckle came from
upstairs at the denouement, and
Hayes companions dashed madly
after the owner of the chuckle, who
got away.
Hage, mad as a wet hen, made
his report to headquarters this
morning. He's mad yet, so don't
quiz him about 1t.

If you want to get fight out OF
Patrolman Hage today just ask
him about the dummy burglar he

o'clock this morning. Hage is the

nightly. About / o'clock he saw
two men on the Peyton porch act

walked up to them and demanded
to know their business.

Hage instantly was all alert.

the hall.

under the spiral stairway was the
dark form of the burglar.

The burglar never moved or ut

scared to death.
So Hage went boldly up to him

ONE WEEK YET
To REGISTER

The registration period for the
fall election will close a week from
tonight, October 10. A few ap-
plications have been received by
City Clerk Fleming in the last few
days from men who thought that
timer registration of a few
months ago was for the primary
only and that it would be neces-
sary to again register for the fall
election. The clerk in charge
gave a sigh of relief and said he
was thankful that once in a year
was enough.
1t is estimated that because of
changes and corrections the total
will not run in excedd of 1000
over the amount reported at the
close of the books for the primar
les. The total at that time fell a
little short of 10000.
