of the speakers. The effort to line up
New Jersey for Taft has now reached
strenuous stage. Knox, Fairbanks,
Hughes and Cannon each have many
admirers in the commonwealth of
trusts and mosquitoes and the Taft
boomers have not found their task an
easy one.
The friends of Secretary Taft are
now working for an instructed dele

this move assert that for generation

Republican National Convention have
gone uninstructed. and they are now
reluctant to change this custom
Secretary Taft does not go to New
Jersey without considerable opposition
from some of the Republican leaders.
Many OF the latter are tied up to other
candidates, and Secretary Taft's per-
sonaI invasion they view with alarm.

A PREPARATORY COURSE
 TO MATRIMONY IN SCHOOLS

Topeka. Kas.. Sept. 11.-"The time is coming when course preparatory to matrimony will be offered in our pub lie schools in which young men and women will be taught some important matter relative to marriage"
 Prof. H. M. Blackmar, head of the Department of Sociology at the Uni- versity of Kansas made this statement here last night before the Superintend- ents of Kansas Charitable Institutions. Professor Blackmar believes such a course would go far toward improv- ing Americans as a nation and he be- lieves 1t the most expedient remedy for unhappy marriages.
 Professor Blackmar advocated a strict physical and mental examination of all applicants for marriage licenses. Persons with pulmonary or mental dis eases should not be allowed to marry. he said. Careful selection Is believed by the superintendents of hospitals for insane and penal institutions and by Professor Blackmar to be necessary to prevent an increase in insanity. epilep- sy and crime.

FOR SILVER SERVICE
TO BE PRESENTED TO BATrLEsHIP
 FLORIDA.
A Movement To Raise Funds For This Purpose Was Inaugurated In Pensacola Yesterday By
 Chamber of Commerce..

Pensacola, Fla. Sept, 11-(SpeciaD A movement to raise a fund for the purpose of presenting the battieship Florida with a handsome silver ser vice, was inaugurated today by Secre- tary Waterman of the Chamber Of Commerce, when he announced that ne would devote attention to the propo- sition and lend all assistance possible in raising the desired amount.
 The exact amount has not yet been decided upon, but the idea is for ctti- gems of Florida to contribute whatever they desire, say S5,000. and the legis- Iature appropriate an equal amount, which would give to the vessel one of the handsomest services of any battle ship of the navy. The movement haa it's origin in Jacksonville. and this sec- ton of the state is expected to respond readily. It is the wish to have at least 5000 subscribed by the time the next legislature convenes.
 The keel of the battleship, the larg- est and most modern of the navy, has been laid at the Brooklyn navy yard already The name Florida was given the vessel upon request of President Roosevelt in honor of Senator W. J. Bryan of Florida, the youngest mem Der of the Senate, who died two weeks after requesting the President to use his influence in having one of the new vessels authorized by Congress named the Florida

The latter have heard nothing from him since the night that he disappeared, and the general impression has pre- vailed that he had gone to Panama

 J. W Bowman. an architect, died here this morning after a short illness, due to sudden attack which rendered him unconscious. and from which he never regained consciousness.
 The deceased at one time was an officer In the German army and a man of much ability as an architect. After leaving the army he located in St Louis. and there designed some of the largest buildings of that city, finally drifting to Pensacola Here he also met with success. although 1t was short lived. He had purchased a cottage at the head of what is known as Biz Bayou. and lived almost in solitude. and it was many hours before his critical illness was known and phy- sicians summoned.
