Tennessee's Political Situation.
Asked as to the probable result in Ten
nessee, Secretary Wright said: Il can
hardly expect Taft to carry the state.
but some mighty good men tell me they
would not be surprised should he win
down there Among business and profess
sional men there is kindly feeling for
Mr.. Taft. The situation in Tennessee Is
chaotic in an unusual degree. Gov. Pat
terson was nominated in democratic
primary over ex-senator Carmack In the
bitterest fight the party has ever known.
The bitterness has not Subslded.
The issue was one of prohibition. The
republicans patched up their differences
to a large extent, and their candidate
for governor, Mr.. Tillman, favors prohl-
bition for the entire state. Although IL
is probable that the republican nominee
for governor will get a good many demo-
cratic votes, it is also probable that ne
will lose many republican votes, especial
Nv in the cities. Just how far these Will
offset each other does not seem 70 DC
known. Tennessee is normally Demo
cratic by about 1900 majority, which IS
not a big margin in q state with large
vote The local questions involved may
have considerable effect on the eiectloh
one way or another. tennessee people
will not be greatly surprised at Whatever
happens"

Rudolph Forster Confesses.
Rudolph Forster assistant secretary to
the President, made startling confession
today 1t all came about without sweat
ing or any other undue process. News
paper men were talking with Secretary
Loeb about the value Of polls and straw
votes, and particularly about whether
votes taken in theaters in Washington
showed the true sentiment of this city.
Mr.. Loeb remarked that these polls were
not to be taken seriously, as he had
noticed the ushers Of one theater he had
attended making out blanks as fast as he
could. and voting them for Bryan.
Sure. they are no good" remarked the
quiet and good-natured Forster; Il voted
four times for Taft myself"

A little man with a Kaiser Wilhelm
looking mustache. silver-braided uniform
and cavalry boots handed a card to Door
keeper Dalrymple at the White House to-
day. 1t was inscribed prince Emmanuel
OF Jerusalem" DalrympIe is used to all
sorts of personages high and low, but
real princes are mighty hard to get look
at. and so Dalrymple watched his high
ness keenly out of the corners of his
sharp eyes.
The prince said he wanted to see Pres
ident Roosevelt, but the most the officer
could promise was to ser d his card to Mr.
Loeb. That official had eaten a light
breakfast and there were calls from with
in that were giving him some trouble
Therefore he sent his regrets to the
prince. saying that he could not see him
now The prince did not seem much
put out. and salmply talked to newspaper
men about his purposes.
He called at the White House, he said
to interest the President in his scheme TO
rebuild the temple Of Solomon, In Jeru-
salem.
To carry out the project he has had his
concern incorporated in Arizona known
| as the sTemple of Wisdom Associa ton"
with capital of $1,0O0.OO When he
has secured this much. which he hopes to
do in the United States. he will begin
work Of erection. although he frankly ad-
| mits that the great building will never be
completed. as additions will be constantly
| made to 1t. 1t is proposed to make this
| new temple of wisdom great university
| for students and scholars the world over.
Prince Emmanuel says his common name
